Routing

-- Route request

    request_embedding float4[],
    optimize_for text,
    constraints jsonb
) -> jsonb

Usage Examples

Basic Routing

-- Register agents
SELECT ruvector_register_agent(
    'gpt-4', 'llm',
    ARRAY['coding', 'reasoning'],
    0.03, 500.0, 0.95
);

SELECT ruvector_register_agent(
    'gpt-3.5-turbo', 'llm',
    ARRAY['general', 'fast'],
    0.002, 150.0, 0.75
);

-- Route request (cost-optimized)
SELECT ruvector_route(
    embedding_vector,
    'cost',
    NULL
) FROM requests WHERE id = 1;

-- Route with constraints
SELECT ruvector_route(
    embedding_vector,
    'quality',
    '{"max_cost": 0.01, "min_quality": 0.8}'::jsonb
);

Advanced Patterns

-- Smart routing function
CREATE FUNCTION smart_route(
    embedding vector,
    task_type text,
    priority text
) RETURNS jsonb AS $$
    SELECT ruvector_route(
        embedding::float4[],
        CASE priority
            WHEN 'critical' THEN 'quality'
            WHEN 'low' THEN 'cost'
            ELSE 'balanced'
        END,
        jsonb_build_object(
            'required_capabilities',
            CASE task_type
                WHEN 'coding' THEN ARRAY['coding']
                WHEN 'writing' THEN ARRAY['writing']
                ELSE ARRAY[]::text[]
            END
        )
    );
$$ LANGUAGE sql;

-- Batch processing
SELECT
    r.id,
    (ruvector_route(r.embedding, 'balanced', NULL))::jsonb->>'agent_name' AS agent
FROM requests r
WHERE processed = false
LIMIT 1000;

cargo test routing::

Integration Points

Vector Search

• Use request embeddings for semantic similarity
• Match requests to agent specializations

GNN Module

• Enhance routing with graph neural networks
• Model agent relationships and performance

Quantization

• Compress agent embeddings for storage
• Reduce memory footprint

HNSW Index

• Fast nearest-neighbor search for agent selection
• Scale to thousands of agents

Performance Optimization Tips

1. Agent Embeddings: Pre-compute and store agent embeddings
2. Caching: Cache routing decisions for identical requests
3. Batch Processing: Route multiple requests in parallel
4. Constraint Tuning: Use specific constraints to reduce search space
5. Metric Updates: Batch metric updates for better performance

Monitoring

Agent Health

-- Monitor agent performance
SELECT name, success_rate, avg_latency_ms, quality_score
FROM ruvector_list_agents()
WHERE success_rate < 0.90 OR avg_latency_ms > 1000;

Cost Tracking

-- Track daily costs
SELECT
    DATE_TRUNC('day', completed_at) AS day,
    agent_name,
    SUM(cost) AS total_cost,
    COUNT(*) AS requests
FROM request_completions
GROUP BY day, agent_name;

Routing Statistics

-- Overall statistics
SELECT ruvector_routing_stats();

Security Considerations

1. Agent Isolation: Each agent in separate namespace
2. Cost Controls: Always set max_cost constraints in production
3. Rate Limiting: Implement application-level rate limiting
4. Audit Logging: Track all routing decisions
5. Access Control: Use PostgreSQL RLS for multi-tenant scenarios

Future Enhancements

• Reinforcement learning for adaptive routing
• A/B testing framework
• Multi-armed bandit algorithms

Research Directions

• Meta-learning for zero-shot agent selection
