Interactive onboarding to create a structured knowledge base. Defines categories, scaffolds the directory structure, creates the index, and optionally imports initial content. Run this first before using /kb-answer or /kb-import.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Knowledge Base Setup
Interactive setup that creates a structured, evidence-backed knowledge base in your project.
## When to Use
- Starting a new knowledge base from scratch
- Adding a KB to an existing project
## Step 1: Discover Purpose
Ask the user (one question at a time, use AskUserQuestion):
1. **What is this KB for?** (e.g., product documentation, security/compliance, company knowledge, sales enablement, internal policies)
2. **Who will query it?** (e.g., you personally, your team, AI agents answering questions)
3. **What categories make sense?** Suggest 3-5 based on the domain, let the user adjust.
Example category suggestions by domain:
- **Product docs**: technical, integrations, deployment, security, faq
- **Company knowledge**: general, policies, processes, teams, faq
- **Sales enablement**: product, competitive, customer-success, pricing, faq
- **Security/compliance**: security, compliance, technical, general, faq
## Step 2: Confirm Plan
Before creating anything, present the plan to the user:
```
I'll create this structure in your project:
kb/
.kb-config.yaml
index.md
scopes/
_default.yaml
README.md
{category1}/
{category2}/
…Read the whole file at its exact version.
How to install
mdr add techwolf-ai/ai-first-toolkit/setup-knowledge-base@sha256:6b9a15be973e1f42The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260508.547bdcc, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
