Bind skills, tools, and knowledge bases

Bindings specify which resources an agent can use. Create resources and manage their credentials or content in Resource Center; manage their relationship with an assistant in agent details.

Add a resource

  1. Open the target agent’s details.

  2. Select Add in the skills, knowledge-base, or tools section.

  3. Search for the resource. Use category filtering when the selector provides it.

  4. Select resources and review the selected list. Existing bindings may already be selected; check both additions and removals before choosing Done or saving.

  5. Return to details and verify resource names and counts. Start a new conversation to test actual use.

Check each resource type

Resource

Prepare before binding

Verify after binding

Skill

Clear instructions, available status, and correct current version

Run a task that exercises the procedure

Knowledge base

Completed file processing and relevant content

Ask about a fact unique to the material and verify sources

Tool

Working connection and target-system permissions

Inspect the call record and actual external result

Unbind a resource

Use the target resource’s action menu to unbind it, confirm, and inspect the resource list. Unbinding changes the relationship with this agent. To manage or delete the resource itself, return to its library. Check other agents that use a shared resource before changing it.

Validate the binding

Confirm the resource in agent details, then request a task that actually requires it. A skill restricted to current user input may prevent retrieval even when a knowledge base is bound. Resolve conflicting requirements and test again.
