## What I do

Provide guidelines on the use and building of the knowledge base.

## When to use me

- When you need to see if there is available knowledge to help complete the task
  - Use the `search_knowledge` tool to get this knowledge
- When you need to add what you have learned to the knowledge base
  - Add the knowledge in the form of a markdown file to `~/knowledge-base/knowledge` directory
  - Index the knowledge with the `index_knowledge` with the `force=false` parameter so that it is available for searching

## Guidelines

- Upon the start of any task, you must check the knowledge base to see if there is existing information on the subject
- Upon completion of any task, you must add any useful knowledge learned to the knowledge base
- Any time you are corrected, you must add the correction to the knowledge base so that no mistake happens twice
- When adding new knowledge to the knowledge base, try to keep related knowledge to the same files
  - Create new files only when no existing file contains information on that topic
- New knowledge must be brief. Use as little words possible to express the knowledge
