Policy and Regulatory Basis Q&A for Engineering Consulting Supervision: Citation Sources and Traceability

Policy and Regulatory Basis Q&A for Engineering Consulting Supervision: Citation Sources and Traceability

What the data for this category looks like

Data for policy and regulatory basis of engineering consulting supervision mainly comes from normative documents, industry standards, and supervision specifications released by the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development and housing and urban-rural development departments of various provinces and cities. Data updates are synchronized with the release of new policies, with no fixed cycle. Individual documents follow the format of original policy texts, with a structure including document title, document number, issuing authority, effective date, and main body clauses. Fields include document number, issuing unit, applicable engineering type, and clause level (article/paragraph/subparagraph). Content units are based on articles, paragraphs, and subparagraphs. Files are stored as individual policy documents.

The rigorous hierarchical structure of policy documents requires traceability to accurately locate specific articles, paragraphs, and subparagraphs, avoiding vague citations. Data sources are scattered across national and local levels, so traceability information must be categorized and labeled by issuing unit and document number to ensure the accuracy of compliance verification. Updates have no fixed cycle, so regular checks must be conducted on the timeliness of cited sources to avoid referencing expired policies. Individual documents are lengthy, and the token usage of a single core clause is high. Total token count for single citations must be limited to prevent exceeding the model's context window.

Configuration Settings

Configuration ItemRecommended ValueRationale
quoteMaxToken1000–1500 tokenThe token count of a single core clause in engineering supervision policies mostly falls between 300 and 600. This range covers 2 to 3 core clauses, preventing token overflow in single responses
responseDataReturn document number, issuing unit, clause numberUsers in the engineering consulting supervision scenario need clear information on the issuing entity and specific clause location of policies to facilitate compliance verification and on-site handover

Three Common Mistakes

  • Setting quoteMaxToken to 2000 causes token count of single responses to exceed model limits, resulting in error returns. Reason: The token count of a single core clause in engineering supervision policies mostly falls between 300 and 600. An excessively high token limit will introduce multiple redundant clauses, exceeding the model's context window.
  • The number of cited documents in responses exceeds actual needs, with non-core policy content appearing. Reason: No reasonable single search limit is configured, and irrelevant files are not filtered by issuing unit or applicable engineering type.
  • Cited sources returned are not the top-ranked matching results from the search. Reason: No timeliness-based reordering rule is enabled, causing older policy entries to be returned first.

How to Confirm Configuration is Complete

  • A query related to engineering supervision policies is submitted, and the citation list at the end of the resulting response is checked for clear document numbers, issuing units, and clause numbers.
  • The value of quoteMaxToken is adjusted, and the token count of responses under different values is tested to confirm the range that meets business requirements.
  • The same query is triggered multiple times, and the returned citation sources are confirmed to be sorted in accordance with timeliness requirements.
  • Logs of the FastGPT v4.17.0 workflow are checked, and the returned responseData field is confirmed to include preset traceability information.
