Knowledge
Units

The intelligent foundation of KUOS. KUs are modular, interconnected containers of knowledge that power AI agents, drive insights, and create a living network of structured information.

What is a Knowledge Unit?

A KU is more than data—it's contextual, relational, and alive.

🧩 Modular by Design

Knowledge Units break complex information into manageable, reusable modules. Each KU contains documents, vector embeddings, relationships, and metadata—forming a complete knowledge ecosystem.

Like LEGO blocks for AI, KUs can be combined, extended, and repurposed across applications without losing context or meaning.

// A Knowledge Unit structure
{
  "id": "ku_tcm_diagnosis",
  "type": "knowledge_unit",
  "nodes": [
    { "type": "document", "count": 42 },
    { "type": "vector", "dimensions": 1536 },
    { "type": "memory", "context": "session" }
  ],
  "relationships": [
    { "to": "ku_herbs", "type": "references" }
  ]
}

Multi-Dimensional Topology

KUs exist in a web of connections—hierarchical, relational, and contextual.

🌳

Hierarchical

Parent-child relationships create knowledge trees. A "TCM" KU branches into "Diagnosis," "Herbs," and "Acupuncture" sub-KUs.

🔗

Relational

Cross-reference any KU with related units. A symptom KU links to pattern KUs, treatment KUs, and case study KUs.

🎯

Contextual

Same KU, different contexts. A medical KU adapts for patient education, practitioner reference, or AI training.

Node Types

Every KU is composed of specialized nodes, each serving a unique purpose.
