Best Practices

General Configuration and Operations

Choose the right storage location and verify each stage of Waker configuration and operation.

Choose the right storage location by content purpose: put working files in the project directory, stable reference materials in the knowledge base, long-term preferences in memory, and one-time requirements in the current conversation or run input.
StageMust-check items
Creating or modifying a WakerResponsibilities, inputs, outputs, and boundaries are clear; bind only the required capabilities; validate with both normal and out-of-scope tasks
Starting a conversationWaker, device, and working directory are correct; specify the goal, scope, output, and acceptance criteria; inspect deliverables when done
Launching an automated task or WakerFlowManually verify both the success and failure paths first; keep human confirmation for external writes; then enable the trigger
Updating knowledge, permissions, or connectorsClean up outdated materials and check the access scope; start with read-only, least-privilege; verify with a new conversation
Updating the applicationVerify the running version; do a small-scale trial run for critical tasks
Credentials must only be entered in protected authorization or configuration entry points. Never write them into profiles, knowledge bases, memory, conversations, or business logs. Re-verify after every significant change.
