Answer Synthesis

What problem does it solve?

This Skill addresses the challenge of providing accurate, sourced answers from a knowledge base, ensuring users receive reliable information with clear attribution and confidence levels.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Sourced Answer Generation: Synthesizes information from multiple retrieved documents into a coherent answer.
• Inline Citations: Attaches numbered inline citations to every factual claim, linking back to the source documents.
• Confidence Assessment: Assigns a confidence level (High, Medium, Low) to each answer based on source quality, agreement, and recency.
• Conflict Reconciliation: Handles contradictory information between sources using predefined rules, ensuring transparency.
• No-Answer Pathway: Gracefully handles situations where no relevant information is found, suggesting alternatives instead of guessing.
• Use Case: When a user asks "What is our refund policy?", this Skill will find relevant documents, synthesize the policy details, cite the specific policy pages, and indicate its confidence in the answer. If no policy is found, it will state that and suggest alternative search terms.
