# Knowledge

> The consolidated artifacts and the sources behind them.

This is the content of a store itself: the consolidated [artifacts](#artifacts) that capture your expertise, and the [sources](#sources) of raw material they're built from.

## Artifacts

Artifacts are what a store actually *knows*: the clean, structured output Clara consolidates from your interviews and sources, and what AI clients draw on. You don't usually edit them by hand, you refine them through [Work with Clara](/guides/build-improve#work-with-clara). A store has a small, fixed set:

* **Brief**: a structured document presenting the key elements of the domain expertise, the orientation layer that frames everything else.
* **Playbooks**: multi-step descriptions of how an expert approaches a kind of query or task, so an AI client follows your method rather than improvising. One per kind of task.
* **Mental map**: the domain's ontology, a **glossary** of terms plus the **domains, classes, and relations** that link them, so everyone means the same thing by the same word.
* **Corpus description**: what source material the store draws on, how it's organized, and how to navigate it.
* **General knowledge**: the conventions and assumptions an expert just knows, the unwritten context that doesn't live in any one document.

When an AI client consumes the store through the [Clarifeye skill](/guides/mcp), these artifacts guide its answers. Keeping them accurate, through [Work with Clara](/guides/build-improve#work-with-clara) and [signals](/guides/build-improve#signals), is what keeps the store trustworthy.

## Sources

Sources are the written material behind a store. Alongside [interviews](/guides/build-improve#interviews), they're the raw input Clara consolidates into artifacts: interviews capture what's in people's heads, sources capture what's already written down. They come in two kinds:

* **Uploaded documents**: PDFs, docs, slides, and spreadsheets you have on hand.
* **Connected sources**: content pulled from Google Drive, SharePoint, and other connectors, kept in sync as it changes.

Sources aren't consumed raw, Clarifeye processes them so the knowledge inside becomes retrievable. An out-of-date source is itself a [signal](/guides/build-improve#signals) worth raising, and retiring a source that no longer applies matters as much as adding new ones.
