kdeps-components-retrieve_context

v1.0.1

kdeps kdeps-component: retrieve_context

set components / shelf workflow

PurposeRetrieve relevant chunks from the RAG index through the kdeps API

LLM context: ~76 tokens when loaded (prompt or tool definition)

Where it runs

Part of the components set, used in workflow and agent mode. Ready-made workflow steps (sql, browser, email, git, ocr...) a resource calls by name; in agent mode they are also tools.

  1. a resource names a component (or the model calls it as a tool)
  2. the component's own resources runcomponents/retrieve_context
  3. its output goes back to the caller

Loaded by: kdeps (agent loop), /settings, kdeps validate, kdeps run, kdeps bundle package, kdeps env, kdeps export k8s, kdeps test

In the code: kdeps (agent loop)yaml.(*Parser).ParseWorkflowyaml.(*Parser).loadAssetComponents

Install

A kdeps asset: installed with the first-run profile that includes its set, or the first time a command needs it, and updated without a new release.

kdeps install components/retrieve_context

Also installs what it requires, when missing or older: schemas/v1, tools/retrieve_context.

Pin a version with kdeps install components/retrieve_context@<version>.
