 "title": "Build a local knowledge base for team reference",
 "page_title": "How to build a local knowledge base for team reference with Open Vetta",
 "summary": "Put team documents into a local knowledge base the agent can use in later tasks.",
 "who": "A team lead or researcher who keeps internal procedures, notes, and reference files and wants an agent to answer from them without sending them to a hosted service.",
 "problem": "Organizational knowledge is spread across files, and general chat models do not know the team's own procedures.",
 "outcome": "A local knowledge base the agent can draw on, with the source files kept in the local workspace.",
 "steps": [
  "Install the desktop app or run from source, then open a workspace for the team's documents.",
  "Create a local knowledge base and add the reference files that the team uses most.",
  "Ask the agent a question that depends on one of those files and check that its answer cites or matches the source.",
  "Install a reusable skill or scenario for the team's recurring method if one applies."
 ],
 "agent_prompt": "Use the Open Vetta repo (openvetta/open-vetta) to create a local knowledge base from the files in <document-folder>. Ask it one question that only those files can answer and report the answer and the file it came from. Verify the answer against the source file by reading that file directly.",
 "agents": [
  "any"
 ],
 "difficulty": "Intermediate",
 "time": "30 minutes",
 "basis": "readme",
 "caveat": "The README confirms local knowledge bases but does not describe how they index files, so test retrieval accuracy on your own documents before depending on it.",
 "category": "Software and DevOps",
 "tags": [
  "Software and DevOps"
 ],
 "lang": "typescript",
 "requirements": [
  "Download the desktop app for macOS, Windows, or Linux, or run from source with Bun 1.3+ and Node.js 20+",
  "An API key for a supported provider, an OpenAI-compatible endpoint, or a local inference server (BYOK)",
  "A local project folder or documents to work on"
