Advai Knowledge Base

Use this skill to create and maintain local knowledge bases with advai kb.

When to Invoke

Invoke this skill when the user wants to:

• Create a lightweight local knowledge base
• Add project files or documents into a searchable store
• Search stored documents by keyword
• Resync stored documents from their original source files
• Build a small local memory layer for notes, docs, or reference material

Do not use this skill for full-text search over the live repository when direct code search tools are better suited.

Core Commands

Create and populate:

advai kb create <name>
advai kb doc add <name> <path>

Search and refresh:

advai kb search <name> <query>
advai kb sync <name>

Preconditions

• This skill depends on the advai CLI from https://github.com/Advai-X/advai-cli.
• Ensure advai is installed and available on PATH.
• Ensure the advai kb subcommand is available in the current installation.
• If advai kb is missing, stop and guide the user to install or upgrade advai from https://github.com/Advai-X/advai-cli.

Operating Guidelines

• Use a concise, durable KB name such as product-docs, runbooks, or design-notes.
• Add source documents with stable paths so later sync can refresh them correctly.
• Use search for quick keyword lookup across the stored document set.
• If sync reports missing source files, surface those paths explicitly and ask whether to replace or remove them.
• Prefer one KB per topic or project area instead of one giant mixed store.
• If advai kb is not recognized at runtime, direct the user to install or upgrade advai from https://github.com/Advai-X/advai-cli.

Examples

Create a KB and add documents:

advai kb create runbooks
advai kb doc add runbooks ./docs/incident-response.md
advai kb doc add runbooks ./docs/oncall-checklist.md

Search the KB:

advai kb search runbooks rollback

Refresh from source files:

advai kb sync runbooks
