What is RAG for knowledge base search in AutoBot?

RAG pulls relevant chunks from your docs via embeddings, then generates tailored answers — no hallucinations from generic LLM data.

How do you set up RAG in AutoBot?

Upload Markdown runbooks via chat, AutoBot vectors and indexes them automatically into ChromaDB. Query away.

Does AutoBot RAG beat Confluence search?

Usually yes — semantic matching trumps keywords, especially for varied phrasing in runbooks and incidents.
