The traditional RAG architecture attempts to chunk large Python and Go repositories based on tokens. This inevitably slices variables directly in half and results in catastrophic "hallucination boundaries" when an LLM tries to assemble missing lines of an orchestrator file.
Flume completely abolishes standard Vector RAG across code in favor of Structural Graph RAG, powered entirely by the native Elastro Library.
Elastro natively indexes mathematical AST (Abstract Syntax Trees), not raw strings.
Instead of inserting strings into Elasticsearch blindly, the Elastro Daemon analyzes your local workspace, mapping down explicit:
- Variables & Definitions
- Function Parameters
- Return Values
Downstream CallersGraph NodesUpstream TriggersGraph Nodes
This generates an identical reflection of your runtime execution boundaries perfectly encoded as Elastic Documents.
The Flume AI Workers seamlessly coordinate with Elastro. However, to execute the mapping, you must instruct Elastro to build the cluster representation natively using your Local OS.
Step 1: Verify the Flume Matrix is booted natively on your Host.
flume start
# Verify the elastro indexer is alive: http://localhost:9200Step 2: Execute an Elastro RAG mapping against the root repository.
elastro doc index fremen_codebase_rag --dir ./src/Note
The Elastro indexer automatically queries local standard libraries (ruff, golangci-lint) checking node parity. When parsing multi-gigabyte files, expect initial mappings to demand substantial memory mapping.
Inside the Flume AI container, Agent Workers (e.g., Implementer, Project Manager) are strictly bound by the elastro_query_ast function tool payload.
Note on installation (Elastro/LogLoom contract): Both elastro and logloom CLIs are now installed by default in the worker image (Dockerfile defaults ELASTR0_INSTALL=public + LOGLOOM_INSTALL=public; explicit in docker-compose.yml worker/dashboard builds). For logloom, "public" auto-downloads the release wheel (no "logloom" package on PyPI). Runtime verification at worker startup (internal/worker/handlers.go) FATALS with clear remediation if either is missing. The Dockerfile build still hard-fails on requested-but-absent binaries.
When your Implementer agent is instructed to refactor the .env generation system, it will autonomously invoke:
{
"name": "elastro_query_ast",
"arguments": {
"query": "fetch_llm_config",
"target_path": "/workspace"
}
}The system responds natively with all contextual implementations, removing context blindness and significantly isolating bugs.
