Knowledge base overview

How sources, folders, chunks, and agent access work together.

Availableknowledge-base

Ochre indexes knowledge into retrieval chunks. When an agent replies, it retrieves only from the source IDs assigned to that agent or explicitly scoped by the conversation.

  • Sources are the user-facing records you manage.
  • Chunks are the retrieval units used by the model.
  • Agent access controls which sources an agent may use.
  • Citations are generated from retrieved chunks where source metadata is available.
