Agents

What is a context graph?

A context graph links what an agent retrieved, chose, and produced, so you can inspect why it acted.

How it works

  • Nodes are turns, retrievals, and outputs.
  • Edges say which retrieval a decision used.
  • You walk them when an answer looks wrong.

What it is not

It is not a knowledge graph of a company wiki, and it is not a chain-of-thought string.
