# How to give your agent company context

A profile, a catalog and a brand guide for your agent to consult before answering questions about the business.

Siglata team · Sep 29, 2026

Someone serving a store owner needs to answer how much a package costs, how many items it contains and which sizes are available. To help with that work, an agent needs to consult the company catalog and recognize when information is missing.

In Siglata, you can save this material in the company space and ask your agent to consult it in another conversation. The procedure below uses Aurora Oficina de Demonstração, a fictional business that sells paper packaging to small stores. All products, prices and rules are synthetic. They are not a commercial offer.

On Sep 29, 2026, we prepared the files in a local Siglata installation. Writes and reads used the siglata-verify-cli 1.0.0 client over MCP/OAuth. The answers came from a fresh conversation with a Capy agent running GPT-6 Luna, using that local client.

## Separate the company's source material

The example starts with three files. The catalog distinguishes pack prices from the price of one item. It gives no delivery times, discounts, certifications or water-resistance information. The download also includes a reusable instruction and reproduction requests; this procedure uses the profile, catalog and brand guide. The sources are in Portuguese; names and Brazilian real prices remain as supplied.

## What each file contains

Check these sources before asking the agent a question.

| File | Contents |
| --- | --- |
| empresa.md | The company name, the buyers it serves and how it helps them choose packaging. |
| produtos.md | Product names, codes, materials, dimensions, pack quantities and prices. |
| marca.md | How to write for small store owners and which details need confirmation. |

## Review before saving

Connect your agent to the organization you chose. Check the permissions before approving access. The documentation covers client-specific setup and authorization.

### From source material to the company space

1. **Provide the files** — Provide the three files and ask the agent to propose a profile and a way to organize the material. Ask to see the proposal before it saves anything.
2. **Check the proposal** — Check the company name, audience and product facts. Keep the fictional-company notice. Leave out information the sources do not provide.
3. **Authorize and check the save** — Authorize saving in the company space. Check the profile at empresa.md, the catalog at produtos/produtos.md and the guide at marca/marca.md. Ask the agent to read back what it saved.

> Set up the company Aurora Oficina de Demonstração in Siglata from these three files. Show me the profile, catalog and brand guidance for review before saving. Use only the supplied information and keep the fictional-demonstration notice.

Suggested request for preparing your materials, translated from Portuguese. This run used files prepared in advance.

## What we saved in the example

This run started with the fictional files already prepared. We saved the profile, catalog and brand guide in the company space with organization visibility. We then read each file through the connection and compared its contents with the original. All three were identical. This step did not generate a proposed profile or include a human approval session. The procedure above shows how a person can prepare and review their materials before authorizing the save.

## Ask a question in another conversation

Start a new conversation connected to the same organization, without pasting the files again. Ask a question that needs the profile and catalog.

> Consult the company context for Aurora Oficina de Demonstração in Siglata. Who does the company serve, and which kraft paper boxes does it offer? Give the name, code, dimensions, pack quantity and price. Identify the files used to answer.

Reproduction request, translated from Portuguese.

## Check the answer against its sources

Check that the agent consulted the profile and catalog in this new conversation. The Siglata connection points to company_get for company context; the agent needs to read the relevant files. The previous conversation's history is not a substitute for that reading.

Summary translated from the observed Portuguese answer: the company serves small stores and helps buyers choose suitable sizes and quantities. The agent listed both kraft paper boxes from the catalog.

Caixa pequena, code CX-01: 20 × 15 × 10 cm, a pack of 10 boxes, at R$ 35,00 per pack.

Caixa média, code CX-02: 30 × 20 × 15 cm, a pack of 10 boxes, at R$ 52,00 per pack.

The answer cited empresa.md for the audience served and produtos.md for product details. The conversation records show reads of those files and marca.md. The agent also opened the product-copy instruction available in the environment.

The run included a corrected tool call: the first request to describe used an incorrect field. The agent corrected the field and repeated the call before reading the files.

## Check what is missing too

Ask a question the catalog does not answer. The delivery time needs confirmation from the person responsible.

> What is the delivery time for Caixa pequena?

Reproduction request, translated from Portuguese.

> The delivery time for Caixa pequena is not in the catalog. It needs to be confirmed with the person responsible; I cannot give a delivery time based on the available sources.

Excerpt translated from the agent's Portuguese answer.

## Review before using the answer with a buyer

We checked both answers against the source files and found no factual error. This check by agents did not include human approval. Before using the answer with a buyer, check the names, quantities, prices and sources. The delivery time still needs confirmation from the person responsible.

The material stays in the company space for reference. You can reuse those sources in new requests, but the quality of the answer still depends on the agent and the review. Start with a customer-service question and a catalog you can check.
