SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

CRUD operations on the gnosis-mcp knowledge base, enabling safe, targeted edits to documents and their metadata while preventing uncontrolled changes.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Point-write: add, delete, and update metadata for individual documents
  • Related actions: view link neighbours and corpus stats for quality checks
  • Bulk ingest guidance: use /gnosis:ingest for re-ingest and prune; requires GNOSIS_MCP_WRITABLE=true for writes

Quick Start

Use /gnosis:manage add path/to/doc.md to index a document.

FAQPage Schema
How do I safely update document metadata in a knowledge base?▼

To safely update document metadata in a knowledge base, use a tool that applies targeted CRUD operations on individual documents. It enforces server-side write gating to prevent uncontrolled changes and returns structured results.

Can I delete a single document from the knowledge base without affecting others?▼

Yes, you can delete a single document from the knowledge base without affecting others. It performs point-write operations to add, delete, or update specific documents individually.

What is server-side write gating for document CRUD operations?▼

Server-side write gating for document CRUD operations is a security mechanism ensuring writes are only allowed when the GNOSIS_MCP_WRITABLE environment variable is set, preventing unauthorized or accidental modifications.

What is the best way to add a new document to the gnosis-mcp index?▼

The best way to add a new document to the gnosis-mcp index is by using the manage command. It applies point-write operations to safely index individual documents and their metadata.

Why are my knowledge base edits not saving when using CRUD operations?▼

Knowledge base edits are likely not saving because server-side write gating is active. You must ensure the GNOSIS_MCP_WRITABLE variable is set to true to authorize any add, delete, or update operations.

Do I need a separate tool for bulk document ingest instead of single-doc edits?▼

Yes, for bulk document ingest you need a separate tool. While this tool handles safe single-document CRUD operations, bulk ingest and prune actions require a dedicated ingest command.
