Can my AI use existing wiki guidelines to write new code or copy?

Absolutely. You can request your agent to 'search the Slab wiki for our Frontend Coding Standards' or 'find our Brand Voice Guidelines'. The agent will retrieve the exact Markdown content of those articles and use them as system instructions for the rest of your conversation.

How do I easily publish my AI chat output back to Slab?

When your AI agent generates a good technical specification or summary, simply tell it: 'Create a new post in Slab called [Name], using this entire response as the content, and place it in the Engineering topic.' The agent will format the Markdown and publish it immediately through the `create_post` tool.

Can my agent clean up outdated company documentation?

Yes. If an article is deprecated, you can tell your AI: 'Archive the post with ID XYZ' or 'Find the old setup guide and archive it.' The agent can execute the `archive_post` command to hide outdated information and keep your knowledge base pristine.
