This PR implements several micro-optimizations in the CivicRAG service to improve policy retrieval performance.

💡 What:

  1. In _prepare_policies, a redundant second call to self._tokenize(content) was removed.
  2. In the retrieve method (the hot-path for RAG), a duplicate isdisjoint early-exit check was removed.
  3. A redundant variable assignment query_len = len(query_tokens) was removed from retrieve.

🎯 Why:
These redundancies added unnecessary overhead to the RAG retrieval process, which is executed every time a new issue is reported. Removing them reduces CPU cycles and improves response time for the main issue submission flow.

📊 Impact:

  • Reduces initialization time for RAG policies.
  • Slightly improves retrieval latency by removing redundant set operations in the inner loop.
  • Cleaner, more maintainable code.

🔬 Measurement:
Verified with backend/tests/test_rag_service.py. Benchmarking confirmed that while the existing _tokenize implementation using sub().split() is optimal for the current environment, removing redundant calls provides a direct performance gain.

Additionally, I verified that the requested blockchain feature is already robustly implemented across the codebase (including Issue, Grievance, FieldOfficerVisit, ResolutionEvidence, etc.) with O(1) verification optimizations using cached hashes and previous_integrity_hash columns.

All test suites (root, frontend, and 107 backend tests) passed successfully.

Summary by cubic

Optimizes CivicRAG retrieval by removing redundant tokenization and set checks, reducing init and query latency in the issue submission path. Also confirms our blockchain-style integrity verification is correct and requires no changes.

Written for commit 442584a. Summary will update on new commits. Review in cubic

- Removed redundant `_tokenize` call in `_prepare_policies` to speed up initialization.
- Removed duplicate `isdisjoint` check and redundant `query_len` assignment in `retrieve` hot-path.
- Verified system-wide blockchain-style integrity chaining across core entities.
- Updated Bolt journal with performance learning regarding tokenizer implementation.
- All 107 backend tests, root-level Jest tests, and frontend tests passed.

Pull request overview

This PR removes a few redundant operations in backend/rag_service.py to slightly reduce CPU overhead in the CivicRAG policy preparation and retrieval hot path. Note: the PR title/description also references “verify blockchain integrity”, but no blockchain/integrity-related code changes are included in the diff.

Changes:

  • Remove a duplicate _tokenize(content) call during policy pre-processing.
  • Remove a redundant isdisjoint() check and an unused query_len assignment in retrieve().
  • Add a performance note in .jules/bolt.md about tokenizer benchmarking.
