Answer from the user's own indexed documents with Guaardvark's local RAG, browse and read indexed files section by section, remember facts across sessions, and process or fetch new material. Use when the user asks what their documents say, wants a source-cited answer from their files, says "remember this", or asks to index a PDF, DOCX, spreadsheet, image or URL.
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 with Guaardvark (MCP tools) Everything here is the `guaardvark` MCP server. All retrieval is local (Ollama embeddings, hybrid search, cross-encoder reranking on the user's GPU). ## Find and read | tool | use | |---|---| | `search_knowledge_base` | the question in plain words; returns passages with sources. Cite them. | | `summarize_corpus` | what the whole knowledge base covers, before searching blind | | `list_documents` | which documents are indexed and how many passages each has | | `get_document_outline` | sections or pages of one document, in order | | `read_document_section` | the actual text of one section or page, no search | | `process_file` | extract content from a PDF, DOCX, CSV, Excel, image or other file the user names | | `index_document` | add a file in Guaardvark's uploads, outputs or install folder to the knowledge base, so the tools above find it | | `fetch_url` | title, description and main text of one web page; pass `query` (the user's question) to get the passage about it instead of the top of the page | …

How to install
mdr add guaardvark/guaardvark/knowledge@sha256:69323a24c96bc469The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261020.ca3b8f7, 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.
