advancedSpring AI — Core, ChatClient & RAG

What is query rewriting (RewriteQueryTransformer)? Why does it improve RAG quality?

RewriteQueryTransformer uses an LLM to turn them into standalone, specific queries first; MultiQueryExpander generates several variants to improve recall — both plug into RetrievalAugmentationAdvisor.
