rag

rag is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from automateyournetwork/netclaw. It costs 0 tokens per session (2,672 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

An offline document knowledge base that lets an agent search user-provided guides, standards, and design documents. RAG, or retrieval-augmented generation, means finding relevant passages before answering from them.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to ingest local files, web pages, and attachments, search the stored documents, retrieve supporting passages, and create point-in-time snapshots.
Why use it?
It makes selected reference material searchable without relying on the internet and requires answers to cite the retrieved documents.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

rag scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 9d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Skill: RAG Knowledge Base

Purpose: Give NetClaw a fully offline, user-curated document knowledge base — vendor guides, standards (RFC/IEEE/vendor), customer design documents, install guides — with agentic retrieval, mandatory citations, and opt-in point-in-time snapshots.

Overview

Users teach NetClaw by uploading documents (Slack attachment, HUD Knowledge panel, or URL). Documents are parsed, chunked structure-aware, embedded locally, and stored at ~/.openclaw/rag/. Retrieval is a tool NetClaw invokes on its own judgment — iteratively, with self-critique — never a fixed pipeline.

This is NOT memory. The knowledge base holds only what users deliberately put into it. NetClaw's own experience (facts, session summaries, decisions, entity graphs) lives in the Memory MCP (memory_* tools, ~/.openclaw/memory/). Neither store writes into the other.

MCP Tools

Tool WHEN to use
rag_ingest A document file on disk should be learned
rag_ingest_base64 A Slack attachment should be learned (decode → ingest)
rag_ingest_url The user asks to ingest a web page (ALWAYS preview scope first)
rag_search Question concerns vendor procedures, customer standards, install steps, or ingested content
rag_list User asks what the knowledge base contains
rag_stats User asks about corpus size/health or retrieval telemetry
rag_update_metadata Fix a document's doc_type/title/version
rag_delete User asks to remove a document (CONFIRM with the user first)
rag_reindex Chunking/embedding config changed (CONFIRM with the user first)
rag_snapshot User EXPLICITLY asks to store live output for later comparison (confirm scope first — never automatic)

The Four Knowledge Sources (routing rules)

Route every question to the right source. Most questions need NO retrieval.

  1. Parametric knowledge — timeless networking fundamentals (OSPF LSA types, BGP path selection). Answer directly. Do not search.
  2. Memory MCP (memory_recall, memory_get_facts, memory_get_decisions) — NetClaw's own past sessions, learned facts, and decisions about THIS network. "What was that BGP issue last month?" goes here, never to rag_search.
  3. RAG knowledge base (rag_search) — user-uploaded documents. Vendor procedures, customer standards, install steps. Check it BEFORE declaring ignorance on these topics.
  4. Live MCP servers (pyATS, NetBox, etc.) — current network state. NEVER answer a live-state question from the RAG store. The only exception is an explicitly requested snapshot, whose age must always be shown.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

rag is a skill published in the GitHub repository automateyournetwork/netclaw (657 stars, last pushed 6d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 2,672 tokens. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-03.
