Foundry IQ knowledge bases. WHEN: make local or Blob documents searchable; create/diagnose KBs; triage unsupported connectors or multi-source KB creation/reconfiguration (even with classic-search terms); connect existing KB to agents (including multi-source KBs); create/reuse a Search service; retrieve from an existing knowledge base with citations; no brand words needed. Read its procedure before query/target questions. NOT: other KB providers, repository-file search, classic Azure AI Search…
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
# Foundry IQ Read one procedure before questions/actions; invocation is not a read. Read the owning procedure before blocked/unsupported responses too. Before mutation plans/approval, successfully read its required pre-action references, selected branches only. Do not reload successful reads. On failure, try only permitted bounded exact-path reads with any supported reader; never bypass restrictions or search broadly. If still unavailable: `blocked: reference-unavailable`, name missing references and inability to plan. Never invent requirements/plans. Failures first. Cleanup and receipt-backed execution go directly to their lifecycle/producer owner; do not reopen Search intake, provisioning or hardening. Before expensive service discovery, reuse supplied resource/intent; otherwise ask one early **USE EXISTING / FIND CANDIDATES / CREATE NEW** choice. Only FIND enumerates; supplied identity uses exact/minimum scoped resolution. CREATE checks its proposed name, not existing-service inventories. Preserve these answers across source/KB/CU/model handoffs; selection is not write approval. Searchable docs: KB + validated retrieval. Confirm intent once; KS-only must be explicit. …

How to install
mdr add microsoft/github-copilot-for-azure/foundry-iq@sha256:66e1e478e89a2d1cThe line at the top of this page pins the label v0.0.0-placeholder, 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.
