At a glance

A pipeline where an agent team builds organizational knowledge management systems.

  • Works in 3 steps: Preparation (Performed Directly by… → Team Assembly and Execution → Integration and Final Deliverables
  • Requests such as build a knowledge base
  • SKILL.md covers Execution Mode, Agent Composition, Workflow and Execution Modes by Request Scope, plus 4 more sections
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

Knowledge Base Builder is an agent skill from revfactory/harness-100. A pipeline where an agent team builds organizational knowledge management systems. Use this skill for requests such as 'build a knowledge base,' 'wiki setup,' 'knowledge management system,' 'internal wiki,' 'organize team documentation,' 'technical documentation wiki,' 'create onboarding docs,' 'organize organizational knowledge,' or 'build documentation system.' Note: CMS server setup, database installation, and search engine deployment are outside the scope of this skill.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.8k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Knowledge Management, covering Knowledge bases, LLM wikis and Technical documentation. The licence is Apache-2.0.

When your agent uses it

  • Requests such as build a knowledge base
  • Knowledge management system
  • Organize team documentation
  • Technical documentation wiki

Example prompts

  • “build a knowledge base,”
  • “wiki setup,”
  • “knowledge management system,”
  • “/knowledge-base-builder”

Requirements

  • Node.js

Workflow steps

3 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Preparation (Performed Directly by Orchestrator)
  2. Team Assembly and Execution
  3. Integration and Final Deliverables

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 8e8d35c. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Knowledge Base Builder loads about 1.8k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 125 tokens; SKILL.md has 671 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~125
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.8k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Knowledge Base Builder — Organizational Knowledge Management Pipeline

An agent team collaborates to execute: knowledge collection, taxonomy design, markdown wiki generation, search indexing, and maintenance guidelines.

Execution Mode

Agent Team — Five agents communicate directly via SendMessage and perform cross-validation.

Agent Composition

AgentFileRoleType
knowledge-collector.claude/agents/knowledge-collector.mdKnowledge collection, inventory buildinggeneral-purpose
taxonomy-designer.claude/agents/taxonomy-designer.mdClassification system, tags, navigation designgeneral-purpose
wiki-builder.claude/agents/wiki-builder.mdMarkdown wiki page generationgeneral-purpose
search-optimizer.claude/agents/search-optimizer.mdSearch index, metadata optimizationgeneral-purpose
maintenance-planner.claude/agents/maintenance-planner.mdGovernance, update cycles, quality managementgeneral-purpose

Workflow

Phase 1: Preparation (Performed Directly by Orchestrator)
  1. Extract from user input:
    • Target Organization/Project: What knowledge to manage
    • Target Audience: Who will use it
    • Existing Documents (optional): Currently available documents, codebase
    • Platform Preference (optional): MkDocs, Docusaurus, Notion, GitHub Wiki, etc.
  2. Create the _workspace/ directory in the project root
  3. Organize inputs and save to _workspace/00_input.md
  4. If existing documents are available, designate them for analysis
  5. Determine the execution mode based on the scope of the request
Phase 2: Team Assembly and Execution
OrderTaskOwnerDependenciesDeliverable
1Knowledge Collectionknowledge-collectorNone_workspace/01_knowledge_inventory.md
2Taxonomy Designtaxonomy-designerTask 1_workspace/02_taxonomy.md
3aWiki Page Generationwiki-builderTasks 1, 2_workspace/03_wiki/
3bSearch Indexsearch-optimizerTasks 1, 2_workspace/04_search_index.md (draft)
4Search Index Finalizationsearch-optimizerTask 3a_workspace/04_search_index.md (final)
5Maintenance Guidemaintenance-plannerTasks 1, 2, 3a_workspace/05_maintenance_guide.md

Tasks 3a (wiki generation) and 3b (search index draft) are executed in parallel.

Inter-agent Communication Flow:

  • knowledge-collector completes -> Delivers inventory to taxonomy-designer; delivers original content to wiki-builder
  • taxonomy-designer completes -> Delivers structure and naming conventions to wiki-builder; delivers tag scheme to search-optimizer
  • wiki-builder completes -> Delivers page list to search-optimizer; delivers structure info to maintenance-planner
  • maintenance-planner writes guide based on all deliverables
Phase 3: Integration and Final Deliverables
  1. Review all files in _workspace/
  2. Verify no broken links or missing pages in the wiki
  3. Present the final summary to the user:
    • Knowledge Inventory — 01_knowledge_inventory.md
    • Taxonomy — 02_taxonomy.md
    • Markdown Wiki — 03_wiki/
    • Search Index — 04_search_index.md
    • Maintenance Guide — 05_maintenance_guide.md

Execution Modes by Request Scope

"Just organize existing docs"Organization Modeknowledge-collector + taxonomy-designer
"Just design the taxonomy"Taxonomy Modetaxonomy-designer solo

Using Existing Files: If existing documents are available, knowledge-collector analyzes them and converts to an inventory.

Data Transfer Protocol

File-based_workspace/ directoryPrimary deliverable storage and sharing
Message-basedSendMessageReal-time critical information transfer, revision requests
Code explorationRead/Grep/GlobExtract documentation targets from codebase

Error Handling

Error TypeStrategy
Source inaccessibleInfer knowledge based on user description; mark as "inference-based"
Excessive knowledge scopePropose MVP scope; take a phased approach based on priorities
Existing taxonomy conflictRespect existing structure while presenting improvement proposals in parallel
Agent failureRetry once; if still failing, proceed without that deliverable; note omission in report
Wiki platform unspecifiedDefault to pure Markdown (GitHub/MkDocs compatible)

Test Scenarios

Normal Flow

Prompt: "Create a wiki for our team's development processes and onboarding docs. We're a 5-developer team using React + Node.js." Expected Results:

  • Knowledge Collection: Inventory of dev processes, environment setup, coding conventions, deployment procedures, etc.
  • Taxonomy: Categories such as Getting Started, Development, Deployment, Reference
  • Wiki: 10+ pages with YAML front matter and cross-links
  • Search Index: JSON format with synonym dictionary
  • Maintenance Guide: Governance model and update cycles
Existing Materials Flow

Prompt: "Create a wiki based on these README files" + multiple README files Expected Results:

  • knowledge-collector extracts knowledge from READMEs
  • Analyzes existing structure to design taxonomy
  • Converts to markdown wiki, preserving original content
Error Flow

Prompt: "Build a company knowledge base" Expected Results:

  • Scope is broad, so knowledge-collector suggests domain scoping questions
  • Proposes MVP based on typical corporate knowledge structure template
  • Maintenance guide includes "phased expansion roadmap"
