airweave
Context retrieval layer for AI agents across users' applications. Search and retrieve context from Airweave collections. Airweave indexes and syncs data from user applications to enable optimal context retrieval by AI agents. Supports semantic, keyword, and agentic search. Use when users ask about their data in connected apps (Slack, GitHub, Notion, Jira, Confluence, Google Drive, Salesforce, Linear, SharePoint, Stripe, etc.), need to find documents or information from their workspace, want answers based on their company data, or need you to check app data for context to complete a task.
Install via CLI (Recommended)
clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/lennertjansen/airweaveAirweave Search
Search and retrieve context from Airweave collections using the search script at {baseDir}/scripts/search.py.
When to Search
Search when the user:
- Asks about data in their connected apps ("What did we discuss in Slack about...")
- Needs to find documents, messages, issues, or records
- Asks factual questions about their workspace ("Who is responsible for...", "What's our policy on...")
- References specific tools by name ("in Notion", "on GitHub", "in Jira")
- Needs recent information you don't have in your training
- Needs you to check app data for context ("check our Notion docs", "look at the Jira ticket")
Don't search when:
- User asks general knowledge questions (use your training)
- User already provided all needed context in the conversation
- The question is about Airweave itself, not data within it
Query Formulation
Turn user intent into effective search queries:
| User Says | Search Query |
|---|---|
| "What did Sarah say about the launch?" | "Sarah product launch" |
| "Find the API documentation" | "API documentation" |
| "Any bugs reported this week?" | "bug report issues" |
| "What's our refund policy?" | "refund policy customer" |
Tips:
- Use natural language — Airweave uses semantic search
- Include context — "pricing feedback" beats just "pricing"
- Be specific but not too narrow
- Skip filler words like "please find", "can you search for"
Running a Search
Execute the search script:
python3 {baseDir}/scripts/search.py "your search query"
Optional parameters:
--limit N— Max results (default: 20)--temporal N— Temporal relevance 0-1 (default: 0, use 0.7+ for "recent", "latest")--strategy TYPE— Retrieval strategy: hybrid, semantic, keyword (default: hybrid)--raw— Return raw results instead of AI-generated answer--expand— Enable query expansion for broader results--rerank / --no-rerank— Toggle LLM reranking (default: on)
Examples:
# Basic search
python3 {baseDir}/scripts/search.py "customer feedback pricing"
# Recent conversations
python3 {baseDir}/scripts/search.py "product launch updates" --temporal 0.8
# Find specific document
python3 {baseDir}/scripts/search.py "API authentication docs" --strategy keyword
# Get raw results for exploration
python3 {baseDir}/scripts/search.py "project status" --limit 30 --raw
# Broad search with query expansion
python3 {baseDir}/scripts/search.py "onboarding" --expand
Handling Results
Interpreting scores:
- 0.85+ → Highly relevant, use confidently
- 0.70-0.85 → Likely relevant, use with context
- 0.50-0.70 → Possibly relevant, mention uncertainty
- Below 0.50 → Weak match, consider rephrasing
