Instant technical answers via Claude Desktop

Use `ask_bot_question` to pull verified information from your documentation into your conversation. The agent parses your specific knowledge base to provide precise, context-aware responses. You avoid the hassle of context switching between your browser and the chat interface. It acts as a direct line to your internal data.

Manage your knowledge base configuration

Run `list_bot_knowledge_sources` to check which URLs or files your bot is currently indexing. You can monitor the health of your documentation pipeline without opening the web dashboard. Running `get_bot_knowledge_summary` gives you a quick snapshot of your total data volume. It keeps you informed about your bot's coverage.

Track interaction history and logs

Execute `list_bot_interaction_logs` to review the questions your team has asked recently. This helps you identify common gaps in your documentation or recurring support issues. You can also use `list_recently_indexed_bots` to verify if your latest updates are live. It ensures you are working with the freshest data.
