Deterministic Retrieval

https://cogniswitch.ai/concepts/deterministic-retrieval

COINED by CogniSwitch; retrieval whose result is a function of the graph rather than of embedding proximity, so the same query returns the same facts. Split from deterministic-reasoning 2026-10-24 (retrieval = input side, reasoning/verification = output side); the altLabel was removed there in the same pass. No external equivalent.
