Platforms count differently and update at different times.

What this skill does

The skill can connect to Guru and its integrated sources such as Salesforce, Slack, Google Drive, Confluence, and SharePoint. Access depends on the supplied token permissions, and queries are logged in the AI Agent Center. Retrieved content may include internal organizational knowledge. Use a least-privilege token only for approved workflows and keep results within authorized contexts. Creating drafts or updating remote cards changes Guru content and requires an explicit request and human review before writing. Requires mcporter and a configured GURU_API_TOKEN; verify the token scope before connecting.

        "Authorization": "Bearer ${GURU_API_TOKEN}"
      }
    }
  }
}
```

### 4. Verify

```

## Available Tools

```

Returns:
```json
[
  {"id": "08de66e8-...", "name": "Guru"},

]
```

### `guru_answer_generation`

mcporter call 'guru.guru_answer_generation(
  agentId: "YOUR_AGENT_ID",
  question: "How do I submit expenses?"
)'
```

Optional filters:

- `sourceIds` — Limit to specific sources

Returns comprehensive answer with sources.

### `guru_search_documents`

Find documents, cards, and sources. Best for browsing content like "find docs on X" or "do we have cards about Y?".

mcporter call 'guru.guru_search_documents(
  agentId: "YOUR_AGENT_ID",
  query: "onboarding process"
)'
```

```

Returns draft ID and URL.

### `guru_update_card`

Update an existing card. First retrieve current content with `guru_get_card_by_id`, then modify.

```bash
mcporter call 'guru.guru_update_card(
  cardId: "CARD_ID",
  title: "Updated Title",
  content: "<p>Updated HTML content...</p>"
)'
```

**Important:** Preserve HTML structure when updating. Insert/replace content within existing DOM hierarchy.

## Usage Patterns

### Ask a Question

```bash
# 1. Get agent ID
mcporter call 'guru.guru_list_knowledge_agents()'

# 2. Ask question
mcporter call 'guru.guru_answer_generation(
  agentId: "08de66e8-...",
  question: "What is the PTO policy?"
)'
```

### Find and Read a Card

```bash
# 1. Search for cards
mcporter call 'guru.guru_search_documents(
  agentId: "08de66e8-...",
  query: "expense report"
)'

# 2. Get full content
mcporter call 'guru.guru_get_card_by_id(id: "CARD_ID_FROM_SEARCH")'
```

### Create New Documentation

```bash
mcporter call 'guru.guru_create_draft(
  title: "API Authentication Guide",
  content: "<h2>Overview</h2><p>This guide explains how to authenticate with our API.</p><h2>Steps</h2><ol><li>Generate API key</li><li>Add to headers</li></ol>"
)'
```

## Choosing the Right Tool

| Use Case | Tool |
|----------|------|
| "What is X?" / "How do I Y?" | `guru_answer_generation` |
| "Find docs about X" | `guru_search_documents` |
| "Show me card XYZ" | `guru_get_card_by_id` |
| "Create a new guide for X" | `guru_create_draft` |
| "Update this card with..." | `guru_update_card` |

## Token Format

The `GURU_API_TOKEN` must be in format `email:token`:
```
[email protected]:a1b2c3d4-e5f6-7890-abcd-ef1234567890
```

## Notes

- Questions appear in Guru's **AI Agent Center** analytics
- All permissions enforced (users only see what they have access to)
- Knowledge Agents can be domain-specific — choose the right one for your question
- Card content is HTML — preserve structure when updating
