Knowledge Base

Grounds the agent in your real content: wire this node into the agent’s Knowledge & tools port (dashed wire), then add sources in its panel.

  • Out (top, dashed) → an AI Agent’s resource port.
KindHowNotes
Web pagePaste a URL, Fetch pageFetched server-side, stripped to text. Re-fetch any time with the refresh button. Private/internal addresses are refused.
Pasted textPaste text with a namePolicies, FAQ answers, product sheets — anything textual.
PDFUpload PDF (max 5 MB)Text is extracted server-side; only the text is stored, never the file. Scanned/image-only PDFs have no extractable text and are rejected honestly.

Caps (enforced server-side, shown in the panel): 50k characters per source, 100k characters per bot. The node card shows the truth at a glance — 2 sources · 18k chars.

  • Up to 24k characters of knowledge are injected into the agent’s instructions per reply, with the source list and an instruction to ground answers in it — and to say so rather than invent when the answer isn’t there.
  • When a bot’s stored content exceeds the per-reply budget, excerpts are picked by keyword overlap with the customer’s message (no embeddings — the selection is inspectable in the test-chat trace, which reports exactly what was injected).
  • Replies grounded this way are tagged in conversation history (e.g. KB · 2 sources) and show up in usage breakdowns.

The old topic chips still exist as optional scope hints — topic names added to the instructions as guardrails. They carry no content; real grounding comes from sources.
