Content Best Practices

Structure for Searchability

Clear headingsWall of text
Question-answer formatRambling prose
Concise paragraphsEndless sentences
Specific topicsEverything mixed together

Keep Content Current

Outdated content leads to wrong answers. Review and update regularly.

Don’t Over-Upload

Quality over quantity. Focused, relevant content retrieves better than massive dumps.

Test After Uploading

Ask questions that should use new content. Verify the agent finds and uses it correctly.
