Problem

Explain your process for evaluating the relevance and quality of retrieved context in a production pipeline. Cover offline evaluation with labeled examples, online monitoring, retrieval and generation metrics, data-quality checks, sampling strategy, drift detection, and how evaluation results trigger pipeline changes. Discuss how you would preserve experiment lineage and distinguish retrieval failures from downstream answer-generation failures.
