Short answer

How do I give my AI characters specific knowledge?

You upload files directly to the character's Knowledge Bank. This gives your agent access to specific facts, lore, or technical data it needs to stay in character. You'll see how this works in the breakdown below.

Knowledge outcomes

Where your data lands.

Managing the Knowledge Bank changes how your agent interacts with the world.

NEW DATA

Specialized expertise

The AI absorbs new files you provide. This turns a generic agent into a specialist with specific context.

UPDATES

Current context

When you change existing files, the AI's understanding shifts. It uses the most recent version of your data.

AUDIT

Knowledge inventory

You can see a list of everything currently stored in the bank. This helps you track what the character knows.

CLEANUP

Human-led removal

You decide when information is no longer relevant. You can remove specific files to prevent the AI from using outdated facts.

The workflow

What your AI does when you manage knowledge.

The AI handles the heavy lifting of reading and organizing your files.

  1. Add new files

    The AI takes your documents and adds them to the character's library.

    upload_knowledge_bank

  2. Refresh information

    If a character's facts change, the AI replaces the old data with the new version.

    update_knowledge_bank

  3. Check the library

    The AI pulls a list of all files currently residing in the Knowledge Bank.

    list_knowledge_bank

  4. Remove data

    The AI deletes specific files from the bank upon your command.

    delete_knowledge_bank

FAQ

How the knowledge management works

  • 01

    Can the AI create its own knowledge files?

    No. The AI can only manage files that you upload or update through the provided tools.

  • 02

    Does the AI delete files on its own?

    No. The AI only deletes files when you explicitly tell it to use the delete tool.

  • 03

    Can I see what is in the Knowledge Bank?

    Yes. You can ask the AI to list everything currently stored in the bank.

  • 04

    What happens if I upload a file with the same name?

    The AI can use the update tool to replace the existing version with your new file.

  • 05

    No. This MCP only interacts with the files stored in the Convai Knowledge Bank.
