What Can I Ask My Knowledge Base?

You can ask anything grounded in what you've actually saved — a project's history, a decision you made, or how two researched topics relate. Ask reads only from your own wiki pages, so it answers well when the information exists somewhere in your memories, and won't fabricate an answer when it doesn't.

Good questions to ask

  • "What did I decide about [project] and why?"
  • "What tools have I researched for [task]?"
  • "Summarize everything I've saved about [topic]."
  • "How many topics have I built up so far?" (meta-questions like this work because Ask always includes a standing index of every wiki page's title and summary, not just the specific page it thinks is most relevant.)

What it won't do

Ask isn't a general chat assistant — it won't answer questions unrelated to anything you've saved, and it isn't meant to replace ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini for open-ended conversation. It's scoped specifically to your own knowledge base.

How grounding works

Answers are generated from your wiki pages — the same automatically organized structure described in how entity extraction works — rather than the model's general training data. This is also why Ask can answer overview-style questions ("how many topics do I have") reliably, not just single-fact lookups.

Quota

Each question counts against your plan's monthly Ask Queries quota (100 on Free, 1000 on Pro, unlimited on Ultra), which resets on the first of each month and doesn't roll over.
