A technical assistant needs a way to retire old answers.
For Shamrock Marketing, I built retrieval over technical PDFs and standards, with document and page citations.
I'd test a RAG pipeline by changing an approved procedure. Does the new document replace the old one in retrieval? Can a cached answer still quote the retired version?
If two versions disagree, I'd have the assistant flag the conflict for review instead of silently choosing one. A page citation is useful only when the team can tell which version it belongs to.

retiring old answers when a procedure changes is the RAG test most people skip
