Build Knowledge Bases with the MCP Server

You don’t have to manually feed data into your bot. The server lets you train it using `add_pdf_to_knowledge_base` for PDFs, or just raw text via `add_text_to_knowledge_base`. You can even point it at a site and index the whole thing with `add_website_to_knowledge_base`. This means your AI client gets up-to-date context without you lifting a finger. Your agent instantly knows about documents or web pages that change frequently.

Run Full Agent Provisioning via Windsurf

Need a new bot? Use `create_new_ai_bot` to spin up an AI agent right from your client. You can set a name and give it initial instructions, like telling it its persona or job role. It's super fast—you provision the whole bot structure in one go. Then you immediately use `list_ai_chatbots` to verify that the new resource is live on the platform.

Handle Bot Messaging and History Retrieval

To see how your AI agent performed, run `get_bot_chat_history`. This pulls out all previous conversations so you can audit responses or track user flow. You also have the direct ability to test it using `message_ai_chatbot`, sending a prompt and getting an immediate reply. This whole process of message exchange and history tracking gives you total visibility into your AI's performance and capabilities.
