knowledge bases

Retrieval augmented generation in plain terms: put the relevant facts in front of the question. How to feed the chat, docs, and code your team already uses into a knowledge base anyone can ask, and why weighting beats volume.

Wrong agent answers usually trace to the files the agent reads. The four ways a growing knowledge base drifts from reality, and the habits (a router file, read-only audits, scheduled pulls, backtracking) that catch the drift.

An AI operating system is a folder of files your agent reads before every message. The four parts it needs, in build order, and the habits that fill it from your head.

Choose a task you need to do, learn from checked sources, then test your understanding by doing the work and explaining your decisions.
