If you’re still feeding your LLMs with plain JSON, you’re leaving tokens, speed and budget on the table.

TOON launched last week — and it’s a game changer for anyone building with LLMs

TOON (Token-Oriented Object Notation) is the serialization format built for the era of large context, agentic workflows and multi-tool LLM systems. 

Here’s what TOON delivers:

Token efficiency: Up to 30-60% fewer tokens than formatted JSON for uniform arrays. 

LLM-friendly structure: Explicit lengths and field sets boost parsing and retrieval accuracy. 

Minimal syntax: No excess braces, quotes or repeated keys — cleaner input for faster comprehension. 

Seamless JSON compatibility: Spend in JSON, push to TOON for LLMs, convert back when needed. 

❓ When to use TOON

Ideal for large datasets with uniform object arrays (e.g., telemetry logs, user lists, product catalogs)

Less optimal for deeply nested, non-uniform structures — JSON might still win there. 

If you build agents, copilots, or any LLM system that sends structured data into a prompt — seriously, make TOON your new standard. 

Your token budget, model throughput and reliability will thank you.

AI Architect | Strategist | Generative AI | Agentic AI

RAG is no longer a “technique.”

It’s a whole ecosystem — and a developer’s stack.

Over the past 18 months, Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) has quietly evolved from a simple “search + LLM” pattern into a complete engineering discipline.

Today, building AI systems isn’t just about choosing a model.

It’s about architecting the entire pipeline — from extraction to embeddings, from vector databases to evaluation, from closed models to open-source innovators.

Let me tell you about two students: Arjun and Meera.

Both are smart.

Both want to ace their exams.

But they have completely different strategies.

Arjun: The Retriever (RAG)

Arjun’s method?

He builds a giant notebook —

filled with summaries, notes, and past lessons.

Whenever he needs to answer something:

 -He quickly flips through his pages
 -Finds relevant notes
 -Connects the dots
 -And gives his answer

Efficient. Organized. Reliable — as long as his notes are updated.
But sometimes…

If his notes didn't cover a new topic,

he has to go back, learn, and re-index them
before answering confidently.

That’s RAG: Retrieval-Augmented Generation
 → fetch relevant context → answer accurately.

Meera: The Context Thinker (CAG)

Meera prepares differently.

She doesn’t just store notes —
she builds a deep understanding of context.
She learns how subjects relate,
 keeps frameworks in mind, and knows how to adapt knowledge.

When a new question comes, she:

- Understands the situation
- Injects domain context
- Merges it with prior understanding
- Cross-checks consistency
- Enriches her response with nuance

Her answers feel more natural, human-like, situationally aware.

That’s CAG: Context-Augmented Generation→ infuse domain intelligence → synchronize context → generate richer responses.

The Difference in One Line

RAG retrieves facts.

CAG understands situations.

RAG is your library.

CAG is your commonsense + domain intuition engine.

Both have strengths.

Winners combine them.

RAG built the bridge.
 CAG will accelerate the future.

 The Future Stack

 --RAG for truth
 --CAG for intelligence
 --Memory for continuity
 --Agents for action
 --Feedback loops for improvement

AI is growing not just smarter — but contextually aware.

If you're just starting — or guiding someone who is — use it while it's still here.

Share it with someone who needs their first win.

Their first moment of clarity.
Their first bit of confidence.

Because sometimes, the right roadmap doesn’t just teach.

It restores belief.
And that is worth giving — especially today.

We all know the basic RAG recipe: 

Chunk ➔ Embed ➔ Retrieve ➔ Generate. 

But when you move from a weekend prototype to an enterprise solution, that simple linear path breaks down.

I mapped out the architecture for building a truly Robust RAG System. 

To handle complex queries and ensure accuracy, we need to orchestrate several advanced components:

🔹 Query Construction: It’s not just about vector search. We need to leverage Graph DBs for relationships and SQL for structured data. 

🔹 Intelligent Routing: Deciding before retrieval whether to take a semantic route or a logical one. 

🔹 Advanced Indexing: Utilizing techniques like RAPTOR (recursive abstractive processing) and ColBERT for better semantic understanding. 

🔹 The Evaluation Loop: You can't improve what you don't measure. Integrating frameworks like Ragas or DeepEval is non-negotiable.

RAG isn't just a feature anymore; it's a complex system that requires engineering rigor.

Which part of this pipeline are you finding the most challenging to optimize right now?

Building agents isn’t just about plugging an LLM into a workflow. 

It’s about stitching together dozens of capabilities that make autonomy safe, explainable, and enterprise-ready.

When you look at the structure this way, a pattern emerges:

• Foundational AI gives the agent its baseline intelligence
 • RAG + knowledge layers provide truth, relevance, and domain grounding
 • Interaction + safety layers make the agent usable and trustworthy
 • External integrations unlock action
 • And the top layers ensure everything is governed, compliant, and auditable

This is why true agentic AI feels less like “just prompt it” and more like engineering a digital organisation:data, context, tooling, safety, oversight, and a decision loop that can stand on its own.

If you're working on agents today—inside enterprises or building your own frameworks—this is the blueprint to keep in mind.

It’s not one feature. It’s not a single model. It’s the stack working together.

Most people think of RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) as a single technique — fetch, merge, respond.

But in reality, RAG has evolved into an entire ecosystem of specialized architectures, each optimized for specific goals like accuracy, personalization, reasoning, and speed.

To help you see the bigger picture, I’ve mapped out the Top 25 Types of RAG — from foundational methods like Standard RAG and Conversational RAG, to emerging patterns like Agentic RAG, Speculative RAG, and Chain-of-Retrieval (CoR).

Each one represents a different way to make LLMs more contextually grounded, self-correcting, and autonomous.

Here are some of the key trends shaping the next wave of AI systems:
Adaptive & Context-Aware Retrieval: dynamically adjusts what and how information is fetched.

Memory-Augmented & Self-RAG: enables continuity across sessions and long-term reasoning.

RL-RAG & REFEED Models: use reinforcement and feedback loops to improve retrieval quality.

Agentic & Federated RAGs: enable distributed, multi-agent, and cross-database intelligence.

As we move toward Agentic AI, mastering these retrieval types will be essential for designing reliable, domain-aware, and explainable AI systems.

Save this post as your visual guide — a quick reference for how RAG is diversifying and what comes next in retrieval intelligence.

Why TOON Matters More Than Ever for GenAI & Agent-Workflows

You probably know my stance: AI/data pipelines + multi-agent systems are changing how we build software. 

But one piece of the stack rarely discussed? 

How we structure the data we pass between agents, models, and services.

That’s where TOON comes in — and why I think it’s one of the most exciting data-format innovations today.

Three Deep Insights About TOON:

1. Token- & Model-Efficient Structure

TOON is designed for large-language model (LLM)-centric workflows:
It “provides a lossless serialization of … the same objects, arrays, and primitives as JSON, but in a syntax that minimizes tokens and makes structure easy for models to follow.” 

Example: Arrays of uniform objects with TOON’s tabular layout reduce token count significantly versus JSON. 

For us in agentic AI / data pipelines, every token matters (cost, latency, context window). TOON gives better “bang for token.”

2. Schema-Aware and Model-Friendly

TOON adds structural metadata—e.g., array length declarations (like items[3]), field sets ({sku,qty,price}) — which give models more “hints” about structure and validation. 

In multi-agent systems or orchestration, structured contracts matter. 

If you’re passing bundled data between agents, you want less ambiguity. 

TOON supports that.

3. Strategic Fit: Not Always Better than JSON — But Often the Right Choice
 Importantly, the spec calls out when TOON isn’t ideal:

Deeply nested or highly non-uniform data ➜ JSON may be more token-efficient. 
Pure tabular flat data ➜ CSV may still win. 

For technical leaders: this means TOON isn’t a blanket “replace JSON everywhere” tool. 

It’s a tool for modern workflows where arrays + models + tokens converge.

My Take: 3 Use-Cases in Your AI/DevOps World

Model-to-Model Communication: When one agent or LLM passes structured data to another, TOON’s shorthand + schema signals reduce token usage and improve reliability.

Prompting & Retrieval Pipelines: Large prompts with structured reference data (e.g., metadata, user history, logs) → TOON shrinks size, boosts interpretation.

Microservices / Data Contracts in AI-Driven Systems: Instead of JSON APIs where every service guesses field semantics, TOON’s explicit schema optics help surface contract drift earlier.


In the era of generative AI + multi-agent systems + massive context windows, our old data-formats are showing their age. 

JSON helped build the modern JSON API era — but TOON is asking: What if we optimized the format for the new era?

If you’re building systems where token-efficiency, structured clarity, and model-friendly data matter — TOON deserves a seat at the architecture table.

TOON (Token-Oriented Object Notation)

Agentic AI System Blueprint — More Than Just Tools. 

It’s a Structured Intelligence.

Everyone talks about AI agents.

But very few understand what truly makes them autonomous, reliable, and enterprise-ready.

Most assume it's just prompt chaining, API calling, or tool invocation.

But that’s only one layer — Execution.

The real power of Agentic AI lies in how all its layers work together as a coherent system.

Here’s the full stack that transforms a basic LLM into a self-directed, resilient, and auditable AI agent:

🔹 Planning & Tasks
 Where intelligence begins. Goal definition, task decomposition, coordination, role assignment, and dynamic re-prioritization — this is where agents plan, not just respond.

🔹 Memory & Context
 Short-term context is not enough. Enterprise agents rely on semantic memory, episodic recall, vector databases, knowledge graphs, and temporal context to make decisions based on past experiences — just like humans.

🔹 Execution
 Where most people start — but it's actually the third layer. Tool invocation, function execution, reasoning, API calling, document processing, and multi-step autonomy.

🔹 Monitoring
 Real-time tracking, workflows, agent health checks, logs, metrics, recovery, auditing — because what you cannot monitor, you cannot trust.

🔹 Optimization
 Self-adaptation, feedback loops, reinforcement learning, performance scoring, and reward models enable agents to continuously improve rather than repeat the same mistakes.

🔹 Governance
 Data privacy, compliance audits, guardrails, human validation, explainability, access control — the foundation of trustworthy AI in regulated industries.

🔹 Infrastructure
 The unsung hero — vector DBs, model hosting, GPUs, API gateways, observability, caching, orchestration (Kubernetes/Docker). The plumbing that makes everything scale.

Agentic AI isn’t just prompting.

It is a full-stack architecture.

Most people learn AI in fragments — a course here, a model there, a few tools, a Kaggle notebook… and then wonder why their skills don’t compound.

AI mastery isn’t about learning everything — it’s about learning in the right order with the right foundation.

So I created this Complete AI Roadmap to help you go from fundamentals to building real-world, agentic AI systems.

Here’s how to approach your journey:

Start with Fundamentals:

Understanding intelligence, probability, logic, and data → not just tools.
Master Core AI Concepts

ML, deep learning, optimization, MLOps, prompt engineering, and structured thinking.

Learn Tools & Frameworks:

No-code → API automation → full stack AI workflows.

Build Real Projects:

Grow Your Career:

Certifications, research, portfolio, networking, and doing real work that compounds.

This isn’t a sprint. It’s a systems journey — one that rewards consistency, experimentation, and curiosity.

Over the last year, through my own learning, research, experimentation, and conversations across the AI ecosystem, I noticed one clear trend: AI isn’t growing in a straight line. It’s branching into multiple new disciplines at once.

So I put together a visual guide highlighting the 12 AI skills that will shape the next wave of builders, engineers, creators, analysts, and architects.

These aren’t tied to any employer or project.

They’re based entirely on my personal study and independent understanding of where the field is moving.

Here’s the snapshot:

1. AI Agents
 Systems that can plan, reason, and take actions with human oversight.

2. Agentic AI
 AI that adapts, self-corrects, and works across dynamic contexts.

3. RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation)
 Still one of the most important production patterns in the industry.

4. Workflow Automation
 Eliminating manual steps and connecting tools into intelligent flows.

5. Prompt Engineering
 Evolving into structured, guided, and constraint-based prompting.

6. LLM Management
 Monitoring cost, reliability, and performance across complex setups.

7. AI Tool Stacking
 Combining multiple tools to build scalable end-to-end workflows.

8. Multimodal AI
 Blending text, images, audio, and video to create richer experiences.

9. AI Content Generation
 Scaling high-quality written, visual, and audio assets responsibly.

10. AEO / GEO (AI Search Optimization)
 Preparing for AI-first search engines and assistant-driven discovery.

11. AI Integrations & APIs
 Connecting models and tools through APIs for automated capabilities.

12. Autonomous Workflows
 Agent-led systems that trigger, run, and self-manage with minimal input.

I created this list to help anyone looking to future-proof their AI journey.

If you focus on even a handful of these over the next few months, you’ll be in a completely different place by the time 2026 arrives.

Vector search gave LLMs memory.


Graph databases gave LLMs relationships.

But neither could give LLMs real-time reasoning.

That’s the next frontier.

Because agents don't just need content — they need connected knowledge that they can reason over, instantly.

And here’s where the traditional stack fails:

Most graph databases still “walk” through data — one node, one edge, one hop at a time.

Exactly like humans flipping pages in a directory.

That works for analytics.
It collapses for AI agents.

The core idea:
What if graphs stopped behaving like “maps”…
and started behaving like “math”?

That’s the FalkorDB breakthrough.

Instead of hopping from node to node — FalkorDB converts the entire graph into a sparse matrix.

Your data becomes a mathematical object.
And once your graph is math — queries become math too.

Not traversal.
Not step-by-step.
Just matrix computation using linear algebra.

And math doesn’t walk.

It computes.

Which means:

Real-time graph reasoning for agents. At scale.

Why this changes the game for LLMs:

Vector search tells you what is similar.
Graphs tell you what is connected.
But sparse matrix graphs tell you what is structurally meaningful — instantly.
It’s the difference between finding a document…

 …and finding the truth inside a network of relationships.

That's how agents will think.

FalkorDB brings this into the real world:

 🔹 Graphs as sparse matrices — zero traversal overhead
 🔹 Linear algebra-powered queries — orders-of-magnitude faster
 🔹 Redis-native, open-source, lightweight deployment
 🔹 OpenCypher compatible — no need to learn a new language
 🔹 Built specifically for LLM context, agent memory, and reasoning

I tested it — queries that took seconds now feel like function calls.

Agents that relied on retrieval now reason in real-time.

The future isn't LLMs with bigger context windows.
It’s LLMs with smarter knowledge structures.

And frameworks like FalkorDB will power that shift.

I’ve shared their GitHub link in the comments — explore it, run it, stress it.

It feels like where Agent Memory is heading.

Agentic AI is not a platform, not a library, and not a single framework.

It is an architecture ecosystem.

Most conversations around Agentic AI focus on tools—LangChain, AutoGen, CrewAI, DSPy, LangGraph, etc.

Useful, yes. But tools are not the system.

Real Agentic AI—when implemented in enterprise consists of layered capabilities.

Just like cloud has layers (IaaS / PaaS / SaaS), Agentic AI has its own foundational stack.

I have mapped the Agentic AI technology stack into seven layers.

Not theoretical. Not hype.

This is what is actually used to operationalize multi-agent systems.

Memory Systems:
Vector memory, episodic memory, shared memory, structured memory, dynamic context management.
Without adaptive memory, it's not an agent system—it's a chat interface.

Tool Integration & Reasoning Engines:
Function calling, retrieval, symbolic reasoning, planning, execution tracking, guardrails, API governance.

Multi-Agent Collaboration Frameworks:
Task specialization, negotiation, delegation, dependency resolution, arbitration, goal alignment.

Workflow Orchestration & Autonomy Platforms:
State management, decision loops, human-in-the-loop escalation, routing logic, fallback strategies.

Evolution, Feedback & Debugging Systems:
Self-improvement, log-based learning, meta-evaluation, execution trace analysis, agent QA.

Deployment & Scaling Infrastructure:
Versioned agents, state checkpoints, event streams, reproducibility, sandboxing, inference routing.

Monitoring, Governance & Compliance:
Policy enforcement, reliability, auditability, red-teaming, safe autonomy, risk monitoring.
The moment you start thinking in layers, Agentic AI shifts from “which tool should I use?” to“which layer am I designing, and which one is missing?”

That is where real architecture begins.

This visual is a snapshot of the Agentic AI Technology Landscape — 2025 Edition.

Each tool falls into a specific capability layer, not a category.

If you design, evaluate, or deploy agent systems, this layered view changes how you make decisions.

Which layer do you think is currently the weakest across the ecosystem?

Drowning in AI frameworks? Here's your quick reference guide!

I've compiled 31 agentic AI frameworks you should know about in 2026. 

Whether you're building autonomous agents, multi-agent systems, or intelligent automation pipelines - there's a framework for you.

The best framework isn't always the most popular one—it depends on your use case, team expertise, and requirements.

Which framework are you using? Drop a comment below!

Not all multi-agent systems think the same way.

Beneath the orchestration and workflow layers lie patterns of reasoning — architectural choices that determine how agents learn, adapt, and collaborate.

There are many ways to design such systems, but when viewed through the lens of how intelligence organizes itself, as Kence Anderson introduced in his book “Designing Autonomous AI (O’Reilly), three foundational patterns stand out:

1. The Strategy Pattern
 Intelligence through adaptation.
 Each agent develops distinct strategies for different contexts. An orchestrator selects and executes the optimal one, much like a coach adjusting tactics mid-game.

2. The Functional Pattern
 Intelligence through process.
 Agents operate in a structured sequence, each mastering a specific function — analyzing, planning, or executing — where success at one stage enables the next.

3. The Perception Pattern
 Intelligence through awareness.
 Agents incorporate sensory or perceptual capabilities — classification, prediction, and contextual understanding — enhancing decision quality and autonomy.

Together, these patterns illustrate that multi-agent systems are not simply task automation frameworks.

They represent an emerging form of distributed cognition — systems capable of reasoning, coordinating, and improving collectively.

The real question isn’t how many agents can be deployed,but how intelligently they are designed to think together.

After designing more than 200 agents at Microsoft and writing THE book on Autonomous AI, Kence is putting these principles into practice at AMESA(Advanced Modular Enterprise Systems of Autonomy)— creating an AI proving ground where teams of agents can be designed, trained, and validated safely before deployment.
It’s a significant step forward:

 from experimenting with prompts to engineering intelligence,

 from simulating autonomy to proving it in real-world systems.
