SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires requests, and includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Archon centralizes your team's knowledge and project management, eliminating the chaos of scattered information and manual tracking. It empowers AI agents with a persistent, RAG-powered knowledge base and robust tools for managing projects, tasks, and documents, ensuring consistent, up-to-date information and streamlined workflows.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Intelligent Knowledge Search: Perform semantic searches across indexed documentation, code, and uploaded files using advanced RAG strategies.
  • Automated Knowledge Ingestion: Effortlessly crawl websites and upload documents (PDF, Word, Markdown) to build a comprehensive, searchable knowledge base.
  • Integrated Project & Task Management: Organize projects, features, and tasks hierarchically, track progress, and coordinate multi-agent workflows.
  • Use Case: Quickly find specific API documentation or code examples from your internal knowledge base, then create and assign tasks for a new feature implementation, all within a single AI interaction.

Quick Start

I need to connect to my Archon server. It's running at http://localhost:8181. Once connected, please list all the knowledge items currently indexed in the database.

Frequently Asked Questions about archon

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I set up semantic search across my documentation and code?

Semantic search in Archon indexes your documentation, code examples, and uploaded files using RAG strategies. Connect to your Archon server, upload or crawl your knowledge sources, then query the /api/knowledge-items/search endpoint to retrieve contextually relevant results across your entire knowledge base.

Can I crawl websites and upload documents to build a searchable knowledge base?

Yes. Archon supports automated website crawling and document uploads in PDF, Word, and Markdown formats via the /api/knowledge-items/crawl and /api/knowledge-items/upload endpoints. Indexed content becomes immediately searchable across your knowledge base.

How do I organize projects and tasks for multi-agent collaboration?

Use Archon's /api/projects and /api/tasks endpoints to create hierarchical project structures, assign tasks, and track progress. This enables AI agents and teams to coordinate workflows, manage features, and maintain synchronized state across collaborative work.

What's required to connect my AI agent to Archon?

Archon requires a REST API connection with your server host URL. On first use, provide your host URL (e.g., http://localhost:8181), verify the connection, and reference api_reference.md for endpoint guidance. The Skill maintains persistent Archon state for subsequent operations.

Can I use Archon if I have scattered documentation across multiple formats?

Yes. Archon centralizes knowledge by ingesting multiple formats—websites, PDFs, Word documents, and Markdown—into a unified, searchable knowledge base. This eliminates information fragmentation and ensures AI agents access consistent, up-to-date documentation.

Does Archon work with existing project management workflows?

Archon integrates project and task management through REST APIs, enabling it to work within multi-agent workflows and coordinate with external systems. It's designed for teams needing persistent knowledge retrieval alongside hierarchical task tracking.
