Summary

This post outlines a comprehensive 9-layer AI production architecture, emphasizing components like RAG pipelines, security guards, observability, and evaluation to distinguish robust production systems from simple demos.

9-layer AI production architecture every developer must know. → services/ RAG pipeline, semantic cache, memory, query rewriter, router. Five files. → agents/ document grader, decomposer, adaptive router. Self-corrects. → prompts/ versioned, typed, registered. Hardcoding is how you lose. → security/ input guard, content guard, output guard. Three layers. → evaluation/ golden dataset, offline eval, online monitor. Skipping this = shipping blind. → observability/ per-stage tracing, feedback linked to traces, cost per query. → .claude/ agent context so your AI coding assistant knows the codebase first. Demo code gives you dopamine. Production architecture gives you scale. These are not the same thing. The demo is one file. Production is this. Full breakdown below ↓
