+## Core Implementation
+
+### Location
+
+`/Users/playra/trinity/src/b2t/b2t_rag.zig`
+
+### Configuration
+
+| Constant | Value | Description |
+|----------|-------|-------------|
+| DEFAULT_DIMENSION | 10,000 | Trits per embedding |
+| DEFAULT_SPARSITY | 0.33 | 33% zeros (ternary) |
+| MIN_SIMILARITY_THRESHOLD | 0.7 | Cosine similarity cutoff |
+| MAX_RETRIEVAL_RESULTS | 10 | Top-K results to return |
+
+### Key Components
+
+#### TernaryEmbedding
+
+```zig
+pub const TernaryEmbedding = struct {
+    trits: []i8,           // Values {-1, 0, +1}
+    dimension: usize,      // Default 10,000
+    allocator: Allocator,
+
+    pub fn cosineSimilarity(self: *const Self, other: *const Self) f32;
+    pub fn hammingDistance(self: *const Self, other: *const Self) usize;
+    pub fn bundle(embeddings: []const *const Self) Self;
+    pub fn bind(self: *const Self, other: *const Self) Self;
+};
+```
+
+#### KnowledgeEntry
+
+```zig
+pub const KnowledgeEntry = struct {
+    id: u64,
+    source: KnowledgeSource,
+    code: []const u8,
+    description: []const u8,
+    embedding: TernaryEmbedding,
+    confidence: f32,
+    usage_count: u64,
+    last_accessed: i64,
+};
+```
+
+#### KnowledgeSource
+
+```zig
+pub const KnowledgeSource = enum {
+    decompiled_verified,   // Verified decompiled code
+    original_source,       // Original source code
+    documentation,         // API documentation
+    pattern_library,       // Code pattern library
+    user_corrections,      // User corrections
+};
+```
+
+#### RAGEngine
+
+```zig
+pub const RAGEngine = struct {
+    knowledge_base: KnowledgeBase,
+    embedding_dimension: usize,
+    min_similarity: f32,
+    max_results: usize,
+
+    pub fn embedCode(self: *Self, code: []const u8) TernaryEmbedding;
+    pub fn retrieveExamples(self: *Self, code: []const u8, max: usize) ArrayList(SimilarityResult);
+    pub fn addExample(self: *Self, source: KnowledgeSource, code: []const u8, desc: []const u8) u64;
+};
+```
+
+## Ternary Embedding Operations
+
+| Operation | Description | Complexity |
+|-----------|-------------|------------|
+| `cosineSimilarity()` | Dot product normalized | O(n) |
+| `hammingDistance()` | Count differing trits | O(n) |
+| `bundle()` | Majority voting across embeddings | O(n*k) |
+| `bind()` | Ternary XOR association | O(n) |
+
+### Ternary Advantage
+
+```
+Memory: 10,000 trits = 15,850 bits = ~1.98 KB per embedding
+vs Float32: 10,000 floats = 320,000 bits = 40 KB per embedding
+
+Savings: 20x memory reduction
+```
+
+## CLI Commands
+
+```bash
+# Demo RAG architecture
+./zig-out/bin/tri rag-demo
+
+# Run retrieval benchmark with Needle check
+./zig-out/bin/tri rag-bench
+```
+

+| Queries Executed | 5 | - |
+| Successful Retrievals | 5 | 100% |

+## Retrieval Flow
+
+```
+1. Query arrives → "fn sum(x, y) { return x + y }"
+2. embedCode() → [+1, -1, 0, +1, ...] (10K trits)
+3. Search knowledge base → cosineSimilarity for each entry
+4. Filter by threshold → similarity > 0.7
+5. Sort by similarity → top-K results
+6. Return matches → Addition function (0.75)
+7. Augment context → original code + retrieved examples
+8. Generate response → with local knowledge
+```
