## How Snyk Assist works

Snyk Assist uses generative AI to respond to questions based on information retrieved from trusted Snyk sources:

* [Snyk Learn lessons](https://learn.snyk.io/catalog/?format=lesson)
* [Snyk documentation](/readme.md)

Snyk Assist does not have access to your Snyk Tenant data, such as issue and asset information, or Snyk Learn learning history. When you interact with Snyk Assist, Snyk collects and processes your queries and conversation history to provide responses and improve the service.

Snyk Assist uses Snyk-managed services and selected third-party large language model (LLM) providers to answer questions.

{% hint style="info" %}
Snyk Assist capabilities and limitations:

* Snyk Assist answers questions about Snyk functionality and security concepts based on its knowledge base derived from Snyk Learn and Snyk Docs.
* Snyk Assist does not perform security analysis, check your code for vulnerabilities, comment on code quality, or provide specific code samples. For code scanning and analysis, continue using the Snyk CLI, Snyk IDE extensions, or recurring SCM tests integrated with your repositories.
* Snyk Assist provides information from its body of knowledge, but responses should not be considered legal, security, or compliance advice. While Snyk strives for accuracy, Snyk is not liable for decisions made based on information provided by Snyk Assist. Always verify critical security information through official Snyk documentation and tools.

{% hint style="info" %}
If you do not see the chat icon, check whether your Snyk admin has enabled Snyk Assist for your Group. Also, ensure that the default Organization in your Snyk settings is your company's Snyk Organization, not a personal Snyk Organization.
{% endhint %}

To enable Snyk Assist for your Group:

1. Log in to the Snyk Web UI.
2. Navigate to the Group settings page for the Group you want to manage.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.snyk.io/developer-education-with-snyk-learn/snyk-learn/snyk-assist.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
