With the caveat that I have not spent a serious amount of time trying to get RAG to work - my brief attempt to use it via AWS knowledge base to compare it vs agentic search resulted in me sticking with agentic search (via Claude code SDK)

My impression was there’s lots of knobs you can tune with RAG and it’s just more complex in general - so maybe there’s a point where the amount of text I have is large enough that that complexity pays off - but right now agentic search works very well and is significantly simpler to get started with
