  • add_documentAdd a new document to the knowledge base
  • delete_documentDelete a document from the collection
  • search_documentsSearch for chunks within a specific document using semantic similarity. Always tell the user if result is truncated because of length. for example if you recive a message like this in the response: 'Tool response was too long and was truncated'
  • get_documentUse this tool only when user explicitly requests it. Retrieve a specific document by ID. Always tell the user if result is truncated because of length. for example if you recive a message like this in the response: 'Tool response was too long and was truncated'
  • list_documentsList all documents in the knowledge base
  • search_all_documentsSearch for relevant chunks across ALL documents in the knowledge base using semantic similarity (hybrid: full-text + vector). Useful for cross-document search when you don't know which document contains the answer.
  • get_context_windowReturns a window of parent content sections around a central parent_index. Use parent_index values from search results. Always tell the user if result is truncated because of length.
  • get_ui_urlGet the URL of the web UI. use this tool when user ask you to access the web interface, when the user ask you to upload a file or when the user ask you the uploads folder path. All these function are available in the web UI.
