Grounded KB Builder

Turn your organization's scattered rules into one citation-grounded knowledge base: every statement traces to a named source, conflicts resolve by a trust hierarchy, and nothing ungrounded ships. Markdown prompts + two config files — no SDK, no runtime. Runs in Claude Code or any capable agent.

Use it

1. Fork this repo and open your fork in Claude Code.
2. Connect your sources so the agent can read your policies and docs — MCP connectors or a local export folder. See docs/connectors.md.
3. Set up — say "help me set up my knowledge base." Claude runs prompts/setup.md and fills:
   • config/organization.md — org, domain, audience, serving surface, conventions.
   • config/sources.md — your sources, each with a trust tier and how to reach it.
4. Build — say "build the knowledge base." Claude runs prompts/bootstrap-kb.md: mine → structure → build (build-kb-entry.md) → verify (verify-citations.md) → into kb/.
5. Maintain — say "audit coverage" now and then (prompts/audit-coverage.md).

Just one entry? Fill prompts/build-kb-entry.md, run it, verify with prompts/verify-citations.md.

How it works

Five principles — cite everything · cite by name · trust hierarchy · verify · treat like code — explained with a worked example in docs/method.md. The model organizes and cites the rules that already exist; it never invents them. One ungrounded claim poisons trust in the base.

Contents

Path	What
config/organization.md	Your org, domain, audience, conventions (you fill).
config/sources.md	Your sources + trust tiers; the ID↔name registry (you fill).
docs/connectors.md	Connect your source systems so the agent can read them.
prompts/setup.md	Interview that fills the two config files.
prompts/bootstrap-kb.md	Build the whole KB from the config (orchestrator).
prompts/build-kb-entry.md	Build one atomic, cited KB entry.
prompts/verify-citations.md	Independently verify an entry's citations.
prompts/audit-coverage.md	Score coverage against real demand.
docs/method.md	The method, the trust hierarchy, a worked example.
CLAUDE.md	Instructions the agent loads when your fork is opened.
