Knowledge Base Setup

Add domain-specific knowledge to your agents using knowledge bases.

​
Quick Start

from praisonaiagents import Agent, Knowledge

# Create knowledge base from files
knowledge = Knowledge(
    sources=["docs/", "data.pdf", "faq.txt"]
)

# Create agent with knowledge
agent = Agent(
    name="Support Agent",
    instructions="Answer questions using the knowledge base.",
    knowledge=knowledge
)

result = agent.start("What is your refund policy?")

​
