Small-Model Probability Scoring for Cheaper RAG and Agent Context Management

Developers are using small models to assign multiple probability scores to text chunks—filtering RAG passages on relevance, answer presence, contradiction, and injection attempts, and pruning agent context by whether segments are still needed—proving cheaper and faster than one-shot LLM summarization.
