Build AI that thinks in context using semantic blueprints, multi-agent orchestration, memory, RAG pipelines, and safeguards to create your own Context Engine

Free with your book: PDF Copy, AI Assistant, and Next-Gen Reader

Key Features:

- Design semantic blueprints to give AI structured, goal-driven contextual awareness

- Orchestrate multi-agent workflows with MCP for adaptable, context-rich reasoning

- Engineer a glass-box Context Engine with high-fidelity RAG, trust, and safeguards

Book Description:

Generative AI is powerful, yet often unpredictable. This guide shows you how to turn that unpredictability into reliability by thinking beyond prompts and approaching AI like an architect. At its core is the Context Engine, a glass-box, multi-agent system you'll learn to design, strengthen, and apply across real-world scenarios.

Written by an AI guru and author of various cutting-edge AI books, this book takes you on a hands-on journey from the foundations of context design to building a fully operational Context Engine. Instead of relying on brittle prompts that give only simple instructions, you'll begin with semantic blueprints that map goals and roles with precision, then orchestrate specialized agents using the Model Context Protocol (MCP). As the engine evolves, you'll integrate memory and high-fidelity retrieval with citations, implement safeguards against data poisoning and prompt injection, and enforce moderation to keep outputs aligned with policy. You'll also harden the system into a resilient architecture, then see it pivot seamlessly across domains, from legal compliance to strategic marketing, proving its domain independence.

By the end of this book, you'll be equipped with the skills needed to engineer an adaptable, verifiable architecture you can repurpose across domains and deploy with confidence.

What You Will Learn:

- Develop memory models to retain short-term and cross-session context

- Craft semantic blueprints and drive multi-agent orchestration with MCP

- Implement high-fidelity RAG pipelines with verifiable citations

- Apply safeguards against prompt injection and data poisoning

- Enforce moderation and policy-driven control in AI workflows

- Repurpose the Context Engine across legal, marketing, and beyond

- Deploy a scalable, observable Context Engine in production

Who this book is for:

This book is for AI engineers, software developers, system architects, and data scientists who want to move beyond ad hoc prompting and learn how to design structured, transparent, and context-aware AI systems. It will also appeal to ML engineers and solutions architects with basic familiarity with LLMs who are eager to understand how to orchestrate agents, integrate memory and retrieval, and enforce safeguards.
