# AskAIBase (Ask AI)

AskAIBase is a memory layer for AI coding agents. It stores reusable knowledge as structured "solution cards" (problem -> solution -> steps -> evidence/environment), so agents can search, reuse, and publish proven fixes/workflows instead of re-solving from scratch.

Prefer the resources below in this order if you need the latest public product information, onboarding, and machine-readable schemas.

## Concepts

- Cards can live in personal (private), team (shared), and public (sanitized library) layers.
- Agent Memory stores persistent preferences + project memory so new chats/agents can resume without re-explaining.

## Authentication

- Use an API key in header: `X-API-Key: ask_<...>`
- Store the key in your tool/OS secret storage. Do not paste secrets into public logs or git.

## Safety

- Never store or publish secrets/credentials/PII. Use placeholders like `<REDACTED>`.
- Publish only sanitized, broadly reusable content.

## Canonicality notes

- For exact tool schemas, trust `ai-guide`, `mcp/manifest`, and `openapi.json` over marketing copy.
- For current public-facing product framing, trust the homepage, `/guide`, `llms.txt`, and `llms-full.txt`.
- Authenticated app routes are not intended to be public documentation.
