- Access DateAn access date records when a web source was retrieved, because online evidence can change or disappear after citation.
- Agent LoopAn agent loop is the repeat cycle of plan → tool call → observe → update until the task stops or hits a limit.
- Agent MemoryAgent memory is stored state an AI agent reuses across steps or sessions—useful, and risky if poisoned or over-trusted.
- Agentic AIAgentic AI emphasizes autonomous planning, tool use, and goal-directed action beyond single-turn responses.
- Agentic WorkflowAn agentic workflow lets an AI model choose or sequence some steps, tools, or branches toward a defined goal.
- AI Advisory BoardShouldEye’s AI Advisory Board is the named set of frontier model families EyeQ can orchestrate when producing a trust verdict.

- Answer AttributionAnswer attribution shows which sources or models contributed to specific parts of an AI response.
- Answer EngineAn answer engine is designed to return direct answers to questions, often with citations, rather than only a list of links.
- Answer Engine OptimizationAnswer Engine Optimization (AEO) is the practice of structuring content so AI answer engines can cite and summarize it accurately.
- Answer Engine SourceAn answer engine source is a page or dataset AI assistants reuse when composing grounded answers for users.
- Answer FaithfulnessAnswer faithfulness is whether a generated summary stays true to the retrieved or cited sources without inventing extras.

- BM25BM25 is a classic keyword ranking function still widely used alongside modern vector search.
- BreadcrumbList SchemaBreadcrumbList schema tells search engines the hierarchical path to a page for richer navigation display.
- Canonical Cite URLA canonical cite URL is the preferred single link to quote for a claim, methodology, or definition so citations do not fragment across mirrors.
- Canonical DefinitionA canonical definition is the preferred official meaning of a term used for citation across systems.
- Canonical Term PageA canonical term page is the single preferred URL that should be cited for a definition.
- Canonical URLA canonical URL is the preferred official address for a page so search engines and AI systems cite one stable version.

- Chain of ThoughtChain-of-thought is step-by-step intermediate reasoning a model produces before a final answer.
- Chain of Thought LeakageExposure of an AI model’s hidden reasoning traces that may reveal private or unsafe intermediate content.
- ChunkingChunking splits documents into passages for embedding and retrieval; poor chunking can break citation quality.
- Chunking StrategyA chunking strategy decides how documents are split for embeddings—size and boundaries strongly affect retrieval quality.
