NeMo-Guardrails RAG Example doesn't work with guardrails, not using the knowledge base.

I have found an issue with the tool when trying to use guardrails with the knowledge base. The system appears to always ignore the knowledge base whenever using the guardrails and generate answer without the use of guardrails. This is what I have tried so far:

I have used the sample code from here
I have tried to pass relevant kb through the kb folder saving the kb in a markdown file and through relevant_chunks, neither of which had worked. I used the documentation from here.
The only thing I have written as an addition to the sample code is a python script, which can be found lower down.
I have also tried to just pass kb through the prompt but then jailbreaking guardrail triggers.

Python script:

from nemoguardrails import RailsConfig, LLMRails
import os

os.environ["GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS"] = "file.json"


config = RailsConfig.from_path("./config")
rails = LLMRails(config)


response = rails.generate(messages=[{
    "role": "user",
    "content": "How many vacation days do I have per year?"
}])

Has anyone managed to run Nvidia NeMo guardrails when using RAG application and has anyone experienced similar issues?

@chuuck : can you enable the verbose mode and share the logs? Let's first double check if the relevant chunks end up in the prompt or not. Maybe the LLM doesn't respond correctly, even though the chunks are provided.

rails = LLMRails(config, verbose=True)

I don't know what your code outputs look like or what your project structure/content is to help. But I managed to get things up and running, NeMo Guardrails RAG application, by following this guide NeMo Guardrails doc 7_RAG.

I have seen similar issue. Looks like its kb is ignored sometimes. I got this verbose capture as an example.

However both the time, KB had a different book. I do not know how it picked up random books. Furthermore, I could jail break when it happens - like by asking other books the author have written and following through.

We'll look into this. It looks like when there are no dialog rails, the relevant_chunks are not included in the prompt.

I am facing the same issue as above. I have already done this code a few months back and at that time it was perfectly responding back from the kb i provided in .md format. But now i am running the same code but its not working now. It is giving the general response using LLM in my caes is (OpenAI), but now from the kb i provided. I followed the same folder structure as mention in the NemoGuardrails documentation. Any one fixes this issue please help.

I also faced this issue, some observations:

You can tell if the knowledge base is loading by seeing INFO Building the Knowledge Base index... when you run nemoguardrails chat
You can tell if the knowledge base is used by looking for # This is some additional context: \n```markdown ... in the prompt displayed during logging

Without understanding the actual cause, I "fixed" this by ensuring I always have input and output rails to the dialogue. Input rails in particular seem essential.

@MeerUlHassan , Do you have any user flows defined in your co files? And which version of NeMo Guardrails you are currently using?

RAG Example doesn't work with guardrails, not using the knowledge base.
