Knowledge base

Storing repository conventions, operational rules, and architecture context.

The Knowledge Base in the web workspace stores institutional knowledge: conventions, architectural decisions, and runbooks. It provides context so team members and agent runs stay aligned with repository rules.

Structure of an entry

  • One topic per entry: Split entries that cover multiple concerns so context retrieval remains focused.
  • Clear summaries: Lead with direct statements rather than background history.
  • Tags: Use consistent tags (e.g. architecture, testing, auth) to organize entries across projects.

Managing entries

You can create, edit, and categorize entries directly in the web workspace Knowledge Base. Each entry belongs to your organization and can be linked to specific projects.

  1. Concrete rules: Document actual commands, paths, and patterns instead of general guidelines.
  2. Deduplication: When conventions evolve, update existing entries to prevent conflicting instructions.
  3. Auditability: Significant convention changes should be documented so past agent runs remain interpretable.
