Ingest Document

Ingest Document

Process a document and extract beliefs from it into the knowledge substrate.

Instructions

1. Read the document at the given path using the Read tool
2. Analyze the content to identify:
   • Factual claims and assertions
   • Decisions that were made
   • Preferences expressed
   • Technical specifications
   • Key entities (people, tools, projects)
3. For each extracted belief:
   • Assess confidence based on how clearly stated it is
   • Determine appropriate domain path
   • Identify related entities
   • Create the belief using mcp__valence_substrate__belief_create
4. Link the document as a source
5. Report a summary of what was extracted

Document Path

{{ path }}

{% if domain %}

Base Domain

{{ domain }} {% endif %}

Execution Steps

1. Read the document

   • Use the Read tool to get the content
   • Note the document type (markdown, code, config, etc.)

2. Extract beliefs For each significant piece of information:

   • Formulate it as a clear belief statement
   • Assign confidence:
     • 0.9+ for explicit, unambiguous statements
     • 0.7-0.9 for clear implications
     • 0.5-0.7 for inferences or uncertain claims
   • Classify into domain

3. Extract entities

   • People mentioned
   • Tools, libraries, frameworks
   • Projects or codebases
   • Concepts and patterns

4. Create beliefs Use belief_create for each, linking:

   • The document as source
   • Relevant entities
   • Appropriate domain path

5. Report results

   • Number of beliefs extracted
   • Key entities found
   • Any uncertainties or items needing review

Quality Guidelines

• Don't over-extract: focus on significant, reusable knowledge
• Preserve context: beliefs should be understandable standalone
• Link entities: this enables cross-referencing later
• Note uncertainty: lower confidence for inferred information
• Avoid duplicates: check if similar beliefs already exist
