Evaluate with evidence

Track for hybrid search: recall@5, MRR, p95 latency, ID-slice recall, citation support. Report fractions like 36/40, not vague quality adjectives. Segment by language, plan tier, document length, or other slices that matter for the technical support search assistant.

Freeze inputs and neighboring versions while evaluating hybrid search. Change one control. Pair results case by case on the technical support search assistant. Define hard gates (severe errors, privacy, latency) before the bake-off. Use deterministic checks where possible; humans for nuance; model judges only with calibration against gold.

Numeric reminder for hybrid search: On 50 tickets, pure vector recall@5=0.72, pure BM25=0.64, RRF hybrid=0.86—report denominators.

Resist adding a twelfth metric before the first three for hybrid search on the technical support search assistant have owners. This workload improves faster when a small scorecard is trusted than when a warehouse of unused plots exists.

Also pin one numeric memory from this hybrid search chapter: On 50 tickets, pure vector recall@5=0.72, pure BM25=0.64, RRF hybrid=0.86—report denominators. That number is not decoration; it is a template for how claims about hybrid search on the technical support search assistant should look in design docs. Scoped specifically to hybrid search / technical support search assistant / evaluation.

People confuse hybrid search with neighboring buzzwords when debugging the technical support search assistant. Before changing prompts, ask whether the broken stage was evidence gathering, the hybrid search judgment itself, validation, or the product action. Fixing the wrong stage creates folklore (“we tried hybrid search and it failed”) that blocks the next team on the technical support search assistant.
