Example

A minimal configuration for this block:

{
  "type": "context-engine/search-knowledge-base",

    "knowledgeBaseId": "...",
    "searchQuery": "<PreviousStep.field>",
    "topK": 5,
    "minScore": 15

Limits and failure modes

Requires a connected Context Engine integration. Calls fail if that integration is disconnected or its authorization has expired.
Required fields (knowledgeBaseId, searchQuery) must be set, or the block fails validation before it runs.
