knowledge-base-retrieve
Retrieve raw knowledge base documents by tag. Needs the fabric:orchestrate.read grant.
The shape of result for knowledge-base-retrieve is not recorded here: it was not captured against a live deployment. Call it once and read what comes back rather than assuming a shape.

| Parameter | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
tags | array | Required | Knowledge base tags to filter on. A tag nothing was stored under returns nothing. A non-empty array. |
goal | string | Optional | Natural-language query that reorders the tagged documents; it never widens the search. |
limit | integer | Optional | Max results (default 10). A positive integer. |
offset_point_id | string | Optional | Pagination cursor from a prior response. |
include_image_data | boolean | Optional | Include base64 image payloads (default false). |
Errors
UpstreamError(503):S8:knowledge-base-unavailable: the document store is down or refused the platform's credential. Never an empty result in disguise: no matches is a normal response with an empty list. Retry later.
More details
Full description from the tool, as the gateway advertises it:
Retrieve raw KB documents by tags. The results can be reasoned over directly (by you, the calling agent) to build a process_flow_manifest and call create-process-flow — or fed into a separate classification-style flow first, if the reasoning itself warrants its own dedicated flow. Don't build operational flows straight from unreasoned retrieve output — read it and think first, whichever way you do that.
Not marked consequential: it is audited lightly and the project's write gate never holds it.
