Layered index navigation enables local knowledge base retrieval by progressively narrowing from root directories to sub-areas. It reads candidate documents locally via predefined references rules, minimizing full-file loading while preserving context for accurate question-answering.

You can locate answers across Markdown, text, PDF, and Excel files using progressive grep-based retrieval. The system navigates a layered index, partially reading candidate documents to enforce minimal file loading and maintain context for accurate results.

Yes, local knowledge base retrieval supports Markdown, text, PDF, and Excel files across large directories. It uses layered index navigation to progressively locate relevant sub-areas, preventing full-file loading to manage scale and reduce irrelevant information.

Yes, the pdf2image dependency is required to process PDF files within the local knowledge base. The system uses predefined references rules to handle PDF, Excel, and Markdown formats before executing progressive grep-based retrieval for question-answering.

The best way to locate specific information in a local knowledge base is layered index navigation. It progressively narrows from root directories to sub-domains, applying grep-based retrieval to pinpoint relevant content locally while minimizing full-file loading.

Progressive retrieval minimizes full-file loading to reduce irrelevant information and preserve context. By navigating layered indexes and locally reading only relevant document sections, it achieves accurate question-answering without overwhelming system resources.
