Uses of KnowledgeEntry in com.tnsai.agents

Methods in com.tnsai.agents that return types with arguments of type KnowledgeEntry

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
final List<KnowledgeEntry>	Agent.getAgentKnowledgeEntries()	The agent's knowledge with each entry's use: what its @AgentSpec declares, with the Agent.getKnowledge() entries layered over it by name.

Methods in com.tnsai.agents with parameters of type KnowledgeEntry

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
AgentBuilder	AgentBuilder.knowledge(KnowledgeEntry... entries)	Gives the agent knowledge entries, layered over its @AgentSpec knowledge by name: an entry whose name the annotation declares replaces that entry (a role entry stays a role entry), and any other entry is added to the agent's chat scope.

Uses of KnowledgeEntry in com.tnsai.agents.execution

Methods in com.tnsai.agents.execution that return types with arguments of type KnowledgeEntry

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
default List<KnowledgeEntry>	AgentToolExecutor.AgentContext.getAgentKnowledgeEntries()	The agent's action-level knowledge with each entry's use.

Uses of KnowledgeEntry in com.tnsai.agents.init

Methods in com.tnsai.agents.init that return types with arguments of type KnowledgeEntry

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
List<KnowledgeEntry>	AgentSpecExtractor.getKnowledgeEntries()	Knowledge declared on @AgentSpec.knowledge(), each entry with its resolved use, budget and search settings.

Uses of KnowledgeEntry in com.tnsai.agents.orchestration

Methods in com.tnsai.agents.orchestration that return types with arguments of type KnowledgeEntry

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
List<KnowledgeEntry>	AgentOrchestrator.getAgentKnowledgeEntries()
default List<KnowledgeEntry>	AgentOrchestrator.OrchestratorContext.getAgentKnowledgeEntries()

Uses of KnowledgeEntry in com.tnsai.rag

Methods in com.tnsai.rag that return KnowledgeEntry

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
static KnowledgeEntry	KnowledgeEntry.search(KnowledgeSourceConfig source)	A source searched with the scope's settings, as an AgentBuilder source is.

Methods in com.tnsai.rag that return types with arguments of type KnowledgeEntry

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
static List<KnowledgeEntry>	KnowledgeDeclarations.chatScope(List<KnowledgeEntry> entries)	The knowledge a chat turn sees: the enabled entries whose use is SEARCH or DIRECT, in declaration order.
static List<KnowledgeEntry>	KnowledgeDeclarations.declared(Class<?> host)	Knowledge a role or agent class declares, in declaration order.
static List<KnowledgeEntry>	KnowledgeDeclarations.declared(Class<?> host, List<KnowledgeEntry> overrides, String overridesWhere)	The knowledge an agent class chats and acts with: what its @AgentSpec declares, as KnowledgeDeclarations.declared(Class) reads it, with overrides layered over it by name.
List<KnowledgeEntry>	KnowledgeSelection.entries()	Returns the value of the entries record component.
List<KnowledgeEntry>	KnowledgeSelection.entries(Knowledge.Use use)
static List<KnowledgeEntry>	KnowledgeDeclarations.withoutMemoryBesideSearch(List<KnowledgeEntry> entries)	The entries a class's SEARCH settings merge over: all of them, except that when its chat scope searches a MEMORY entry beside other SEARCH entries, the MEMORY entries stay out, since their binding searches them on its own with its own settings.

Methods in com.tnsai.rag with parameters of type KnowledgeEntry

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
static SequentialConfig	SequentialConfig.from(KnowledgeEntry entry)	Converts a declared use = SEQUENTIAL knowledge entry to the canonical runtime model.

Method parameters in com.tnsai.rag with type arguments of type KnowledgeEntry

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
static List<KnowledgeEntry>	KnowledgeDeclarations.chatScope(List<KnowledgeEntry> entries)	The knowledge a chat turn sees: the enabled entries whose use is SEARCH or DIRECT, in declaration order.
static List<KnowledgeEntry>	KnowledgeDeclarations.declared(Class<?> host, List<KnowledgeEntry> overrides, String overridesWhere)	The knowledge an agent class chats and acts with: what its @AgentSpec declares, as KnowledgeDeclarations.declared(Class) reads it, with overrides layered over it by name.
static KnowledgeSelection	KnowledgeDeclarations.forAction(Method method, List<KnowledgeEntry> available)	The knowledge an action sees: the sources its ActionSpec.knowledge() names, with the action's values applied.
static KnowledgeSelection	KnowledgeDeclarations.forAction(Method method, List<KnowledgeEntry> available, Map<String,List<String>> actionKnowledge)	Like KnowledgeDeclarations.forAction(Method, List), but an action the agent gives its knowledge by name, keyed by action name in actionKnowledge, sees those entries as declared instead of its ActionSpec.knowledge().
static Optional<KnowledgeSelection>	KnowledgeDeclarations.forActionIfResolvable(Method method, List<KnowledgeEntry> available)	Like KnowledgeDeclarations.forAction(Method, List), but leaves an action that names knowledge outside available unresolved instead of failing.
static Optional<KnowledgeSelection>	KnowledgeDeclarations.forActionIfResolvable(Method method, List<KnowledgeEntry> available, Map<String,List<String>> actionKnowledge)	Like KnowledgeDeclarations.forActionIfResolvable(Method, List), with the action's knowledge given by name as KnowledgeDeclarations.forAction(Method, List, Map) takes it.
default ChatKnowledgeContext	RetrievalSpi.prepareChatKnowledge(Object agent, List<KnowledgeEntry> entries, LLMClient llm)	Prepares the DIRECT knowledge an agent's chat turns give.
static boolean	ChatKnowledgeBindingValidator.searchesMemory(ChatKnowledgeBinding binding, List<KnowledgeEntry> knowledge)	Whether a binding searches the MEMORY entry of the given knowledge rather than its other SEARCH entries: whether any of its sources names an enabled MEMORY entry of the chat scope.
static KnowledgeSelection	KnowledgeDeclarations.select(List<KnowledgeEntry> entries, String where)	A scope over the given entries searched together, such as a chat turn over an agent's MEMORY knowledge or over its other knowledge.
static KnowledgeSelection	KnowledgeDeclarations.select(List<KnowledgeEntry> entries, String where, Supplier<RetrievalConfig.Builder> defaults)	A scope over the given entries whose SEARCH settings overlay the given defaults instead of the framework's, such as a chat turn's.
static void	ChatKnowledgeBindingValidator.validate(ChatKnowledgeBinding binding, Object owner, String ownerId, List<KnowledgeEntry> knowledge, String where)	Checks a binding against the owner's declared knowledge.
static void	KnowledgeDeclarations.validate(Class<?> host, List<KnowledgeEntry> outer)	Checks every action of a class against the knowledge in its reach.
static void	KnowledgeDeclarations.validate(Class<?> host, List<KnowledgeEntry> outer, Map<String,List<String>> actionKnowledge)	Like KnowledgeDeclarations.validate(Class, List), with the knowledge of some actions given by name as KnowledgeDeclarations.forAction(Method, List, Map) takes it.
default void	RetrievalSpi.validateConfiguration(Class<?> targetClass, List<KnowledgeEntry> outer, LLMClient llm)	Validates a target's knowledge once the knowledge around it is known: every action scope resolved against the target's own declarations plus outer, and every DIRECT source measured against its budget.
default void	RetrievalSpi.validateConfiguration(Class<?> targetClass, List<KnowledgeEntry> outer, LLMClient llm, boolean pathsPerRun)	Validates a target's knowledge as RetrievalSpi.validateConfiguration(Class, java.util.List, com.tnsai.llm.LLMClient) does, for a host that locates FILE sources per run.
default void	RetrievalSpi.validateConfiguration(Class<?> targetClass, List<KnowledgeEntry> outer, LLMClient llm, Map<String,List<String>> actionKnowledge)	Validates a target's knowledge as RetrievalSpi.validateConfiguration(Class, java.util.List, com.tnsai.llm.LLMClient) does, with the knowledge of some actions given by name: an action actionKnowledge names sees the entries given there instead of the ones its @ActionSpec names.
static List<KnowledgeEntry>	KnowledgeDeclarations.withoutMemoryBesideSearch(List<KnowledgeEntry> entries)	The entries a class's SEARCH settings merge over: all of them, except that when its chat scope searches a MEMORY entry beside other SEARCH entries, the MEMORY entries stay out, since their binding searches them on its own with its own settings.
