MCP connection vs knowledge file
When to use it
Use this when your AI app supports custom instructions, memory, or pasted context and you want better responses beyond what MCP tools provide alone. It helps your AI understand Machines terminology and handle requests more accurately.Setup
1
Open the knowledge file
2
Copy all content
Select all text on the page and copy it.
3
Paste into your AI app
Paste into your app’s custom instructions, memory, or context field.
What this improves
- More accurate card, balance, and deposit requests
- Fewer incorrect tool calls
- Better handling of sensitive actions
The knowledge file does not replace an MCP connection. You still need to connect first.
