Citations

When retrieval returns supporting passages, each one is attached to the response as a citation. If nothing was retrieved, the response comes back without citations. Rosetta won’t make one up.

How Citations Appear

Citations show up in two places: inline markers on the claims they support, and a source list under the response.

Start broad-spectrum coverage within 1 hour of recognition [Source 1]. Piperacillin-tazobactam 4.5 g IV q6h is first line; add vancomycin if MRSA risk factors are present [Source 1]. 📚 Sources [1] Sepsis Guidelines 2024

Markers are numbered in the order sources were retrieved. The numbering is per-response: [Source 1] in one answer and [Source 1] in the next can be different documents.

When Citations Are Missing

An answer without expected citations usually means one of three things:

  1. The source is empty, or Rosetta could not extract usable text from it.
  2. The source’s “included in ingest” toggle is off.
  3. The question genuinely didn’t match any passage in your library.

Check the first two in the RAG panel before assuming the third.
