Focus on agents. We handle document intelligence.Knowledge Stack is the document intelligence layer behind your agents — ingestion, chunking, permissions, versioning, and citation tracking — exposed through a stable MCP surface that plugs into LangChain, LangGraph, CrewAI, Temporal, the OpenAI Agents SDK, pydantic-ai, Claude Desktop, and Cursor. Build enterprise RAG and agent pipelines in minutes instead of weeks.

What we are
- A developer acceleration layer for enterprise RAG + agent pipelines.
- An MCP-native retrieval surface that works with every major agent framework.
- A permission-aware document store with citation-grounded reads.
- Framework-agnostic — bring your own model, your own orchestration, your own UI.
What we are not
- Not an agent framework — use LangChain, LangGraph, CrewAI, or Temporal on top.
- Not a model provider — bring your own OpenAI / Anthropic / open-source model.
- Not a generic document store — we are specifically built for agent retrieval with permissions and citations.
- Not a fine-tuning platform.
Differentiators
Permission-aware retrieval
The same agent code returns different results per user — by construction, not by post-filtering. See Authorization.
Chunk-level citations
Every claim traces to a chunk UUID, page, and bounding box. Verifiable by auditors. See Citations.
Version-aware reads
Answer as of any point in time. Revisions, rollback, and time-travel queries are first-class.
MCP-native
Portable across every major agent framework without glue code. See MCP server.
Production pattern library
32 flagship demos across 10+ regulated verticals in ks-cookbook.
Stable, typed surface
First-party Python + TypeScript SDKs generated from one OpenAPI spec. See SDKs.
Who it’s for
Teams building internal AI agents on large document collections where permissions, citations, and structured outputs matter. Especially:- Banking & insurance — policy and claim Q&A with audit trails.
- Healthcare & pharma — protocol search with versioning and PHI-aware access.
- Legal & accounting — contract and filings retrieval with citation-grounded answers.
- Energy & government — regulated documents with strict role-based scoping.
How it fits with your stack
| You’re already using | How Knowledge Stack plugs in |
|---|---|
| LangChain / LangGraph | langchain-mcp-adapters against our MCP server. See flagships/csv_enrichment. |
| CrewAI | Shared retrieval tool across the crew. |
| Temporal | Call the MCP server from activities for durable agent workflows. |
| OpenAI Agents SDK | First-party MCP support — point at uvx knowledgestack-mcp. |
| pydantic-ai | Most cookbook flagships use this — native MCP plus schema-enforced output. |
| Claude Desktop / Cursor | Add us as an MCP server — permission-scoped retrieval for your assistant. |
| Building from scratch | Start with ks-cookbook — pick the flagship matching your vertical. |
The pitch, by role
Platform engineer — You’re already building ingestion pipelines, permission filtering, chunk storage, version tracking, and citation verification. Knowledge Stack does all of that behind an MCP surface. Your agent framework doesn’t change. Your team focuses on agent logic. ML / AI engineer — Skip the glue. Our MCP server plugs into LangChain, LangGraph, CrewAI, and the OpenAI Agents SDK. Chunk-level citations and structured output come for free. 32 production-grade flagships show the patterns. VP / director — Enterprise RAG usually takes 6-12 months to ship safely. Knowledge Stack collapses that to weeks. Permission-aware retrieval, audit-ready citations, pattern library across 10+ regulated verticals. Your team ships the agent; we handle the document layer.Architecture
