Reading the result

The response includes files with the Markdown body and the source of each section. vault_custom identifies an account-authored or edited page. mindwiki_default means MindWiki supplied the current default. installed and user_modified describe the requested section or the complete guide when file is omitted. The complete response also includes the advertised tool catalog.

The guide is optional for routine reads and captures. Read the specific section you need and check tools/list for current tool availability. Guide content provides account preferences within the current request, connection scopes, and account permissions.

Reading the guide leaves saved files untouched. Settings → Agent Operating Guide lets the user restore missing pages, update unedited older defaults, and open the guide in the vault editor.
