Use local ChromaDB RAG

Ground an agent's answers in your knowledge base.

Retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) finds the most relevant snippets from your knowledge base and adds them to the agent's prompt, so answers are grounded in your documents.

Enable it

  1. Import documents into the knowledge base.
  2. Edit an agent and turn on Knowledge base (RAG).
  3. Chat with the agent — relevant snippets are retrieved locally and the reply shows its sources.

Everything stays local: embeddings, search, and storage all happen on your machine. ChromaDB runs in local persistent mode only — never Chroma Cloud.
