A lightweight Discord bot that brings Katara’s RAG‑powered “agent” framework right into your channels and DMs. Instead of jumping into a separate web app, your team can ✅ ask questions, ✅ summarize or revise content, and ✅ listen across channels

2. Core Capabilities • Retrieval‑Augmented Q&A • Listsens to servers and channels • Pulls from your connected KBs (GitHub wiki, Confluence, Notion, etc.) plus the underlying LLM to deliver concise, context‑aware answers. • Summarization & Rewriting • Runs Katara’s classifier, recommender, rewriter pipeline to produce polished copy. • Content Health Alerts • Monitor channel in listen only mode • Posts a reminder in a designated channel when articles haven’t been updated within your threshold. • Automated Ticket Creation • When the bot spots outdated or low‑coverage content, it can open a Jira/GitHub issue on your behalf with suggested edits attached. • Interactive Document Walk‑throughs • In DMs, the bot can guide users step‑by‑step through editing workflows—e.g. “Here are the three latest API changes; which would you like to update first?”

3. How It Works

   1. Discord Integration
   2. Backend Agents • Classifier Agent tags incoming requests or document snippets by Diataxis category. • Recommender Agent decides the next action (reply inline, create a ticket, flag for human review). • Rewriter Agent uses your style guidelines to generate the final text.
   3. Data Connectors • Connectors to GitHub, Notion, Confluence, SharePoint, or any RESTful API. • Content is vectorized and stored in a managed vector database (e.g. Pinecone, Weaviate).
   4. Security & Permissions • OAuth2 for server‑wide install; granular scopes so the bot can read only specific channels or repos. • Audit logs for every action it takes (summaries generated, tickets opened, etc.).

4. Typical Use Cases • Developer Support Channels: Instantly answer “How do I use endpoint X?” without burdening your engineers. • Product Release Stand‑ups: Summarize release notes and highlight docs needing updates. • Onboarding New Hires: New team members can /katara ask onboarding guide and get up to speed immediately. • Cross‑Functional Alerts: Marketing sees that a technical doc has changed and gets a heads‑up to update collateral.

5. Getting Started

   1. Install the Bot • Invite via OAuth link. • Grant read access to your docs channels and write access to your tickets channel.
   2. Configure Your KBs • In the Katara dashboard, add your GitHub, Confluence, Notion integrations. • Set refresh schedules for vector indexes.
   3. Tune Your Agents • Define your Diataxis categories and style guides. • Adjust staleness thresholds and ticket templates.
   4. Train Your Team • Share a one‑pager on slash commands and best practices. • Run a kickoff session where people ask the bot live questions.
