Agentic RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) combines the power of AI agents with RAG to create dynamic, intelligent workflows. Companies like Glean AI, Perplexity, and Harvey use multi-agent RAG systems to enhance enterprise solutions.
How Agentic RAG Works
RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation)
- Query and Embedding (Retrieval) β The model fetches relevant data from sources, and a Vector DB extracts embeddings.
- Prompt Addition (Augmentation) β Retrieved data merges with the query and system prompt.
- LLM Output (Generation) β The Large Language Model (LLM) processes the combined input to generate a response.
AI Agents
- Query Handling β The agent analyzes the user query.
- Memory & Planning β Uses frameworks like ReACT or Reflexion to strategize responses.
- Tool Usage β Fetches real-time data via APIs (Google, Mail, etc.).
- Output Generation β Enhances responses using gathered data and reasoning.
Combining RAG & AI Agents
- AI agents dynamically select data sources based on queries.
- They refine RAGβs prompts with planning and real-time tool data.
Operational Workflow
- Query Routing β The agent processes and coordinates the query.
- Context Retention β Uses short/long-term memory for context.
- Task Planning β Defines retrieval strategy and selects tools.
- Data Fetching β Uses vector search to gather relevant data.
- Prompt Optimization β Combines retrieved data with reasoning for LLM input.
- Response Generation β LLM delivers the final output.

You Should Know: Practical AI & Linux Commands for Agentic RAG
1. Setting Up a Vector Database (ChromaDB Example)
Install ChromaDB pip install chromadb Initialize and query import chromadb client = chromadb.Client() collection = client.create_collection("knowledge_base") collection.add(documents=["AI agents enhance RAG workflows"], ids=["doc1"]) results = collection.query(query_texts=["How do AI agents help RAG?"], n_results=1)
2. Running an AI Agent with LangChain
pip install langchain openai from langchain.agents import load_tools, initialize_agent from langchain.llms import OpenAI llm = OpenAI(temperature=0) tools = load_tools(["google-search"], llm=llm) agent = initialize_agent(tools, llm, agent="zero-shot-react-description") agent.run("Whatβs the latest research on Agentic RAG?")
3. Automating Retrieval with Python
from sentence_transformers import SentenceTransformer model = SentenceTransformer('all-MiniLM-L6-v2') query_embedding = model.encode("How does Agentic RAG work?")
- Linux Data Processing (jq, grep, awk for Logs)
Filter AI agent logs cat agent_logs.json | jq '.transactions[] | select(.query == "RAG")' Extract relevant API calls grep "API_CALL" debug.log | awk '{print $3, $5}'
5. Windows PowerShell for AI Workflows
Check running AI processes Get-Process | Where-Object { $_.ProcessName -like "python" } Monitor API calls Invoke-WebRequest -Uri "https://api.agentic-rag.com/query" -Method POST -Body '{"query":"AI trends 2025"}'
What Undercode Say
