 为了保持对遗留数据的兼容，在未配置工作空间时PostgreSQL非图存储的工作空间为`default`，PostgreSQL AGE图存储的工作空间为空，Neo4j图存储的默认工作空间为`base`。对于所有的外部存储，系统都提供了专用的工作空间环境变量，用于覆盖公共的 `WORKSPACE`环境变量配置。这些适用于指定存储类型的工作空间环境变量为：`REDIS_WORKSPACE`, `MILVUS_WORKSPACE`, `QDRANT_WORKSPACE`, `MONGODB_WORKSPACE`, `POSTGRES_WORKSPACE`, `NEO4J_WORKSPACE`。

+### 🏢 企业级多租户模式
+
+> **由 [Raphaël MANSUY](https://github.com/raphaelmansuy) ([ELITIZON](https://www.elitizon.com)) 贡献**
+
+LightRAG支持企业级多租户功能，提供完整的数据隔离、基于角色的访问控制(RBAC)和每租户知识库管理。这使得SaaS部署成为可能，多个组织可以共享同一基础设施，同时保持严格的数据边界。
+
+#### 运行模式
+
+| 模式 | 环境变量 | 描述 |
+|------|---------|------|
+| **单租户** (默认) | `LIGHTRAG_MULTI_TENANT=false` | 向后兼容模式。与原始LightRAG完全相同，无需租户上下文。 |
+| **多租户** | `LIGHTRAG_MULTI_TENANT=true` | 在WebUI中启用租户/知识库选择。API请求可选择性包含租户上下文。 |
+| **严格多租户** | `LIGHTRAG_MULTI_TENANT_STRICT=true` | 所有API请求必须包含租户上下文（`X-Tenant-ID`、`X-KB-ID`请求头）。 |
+
+#### 快速开始
+
+1. **在`.env`中启用多租户模式**：
+
+```bash
+# 启用多租户模式
+LIGHTRAG_MULTI_TENANT=true
+
+# 可选：要求所有请求都包含租户上下文
+# LIGHTRAG_MULTI_TENANT_STRICT=true
+```
+
+2. **启动服务器**：
+
+```bash
+lightrag-server
+```
+
+3. **通过API创建租户**：
+
+```bash
+curl -X POST http://localhost:9621/api/tenants \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{"tenant_id": "acme-corp", "tenant_name": "ACME公司"}'
+```
+
+4. **创建知识库**：
+
+```bash
+curl -X POST http://localhost:9621/api/tenants/acme-corp/kbs \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{"kb_id": "product-docs", "kb_name": "产品文档"}'
+```
+
+5. **在请求中使用租户上下文**：
+
+```bash
+# 带租户上下文插入文档
+curl -X POST http://localhost:9621/documents/text \
+  -H "X-Tenant-ID: acme-corp" \
+  -H "X-KB-ID: product-docs" \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{"text": "您的文档内容..."}'
+
+# 带租户上下文查询
+curl -X POST http://localhost:9621/query \
+  -H "X-Tenant-ID: acme-corp" \
+  -H "X-KB-ID: product-docs" \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{"query": "产品是关于什么的？"}'
+```

+
+#### 基于角色的访问控制 (RBAC)
+
+| 角色 | 权限 |
+|------|------|
+| `admin` | 完全访问：管理租户、成员、知识库、文档、查询 |
+| `editor` | 创建/删除知识库、管理文档、执行查询 |
+| `viewer` | 读取文档、执行查询 |
+| `viewer:read-only` | 仅执行查询 |
+
+#### 向后兼容性
+
+**对现有部署无破坏性更改：**
+
+- 设置`LIGHTRAG_MULTI_TENANT=false`（默认），LightRAG与之前完全相同
+- 现有数据和API保持完全兼容
+- `workspace`参数仍可用于基本数据隔离
+- 多租户模式为可选功能，需要显式配置
+
+#### 租户配置选项
+
+每个租户可以有自定义配置：
+
+```python
+TenantConfig(
+    # 每租户模型选择
+    llm_model="gpt-4o-mini",
+    embedding_model="bge-m3:latest",
+    rerank_model="jina-reranker-v2-base-multilingual",
+    
+    # 查询默认值
+    top_k=40,
+    cosine_threshold=0.2,
+    
+    # 资源配额
+    max_documents=10000,
+    max_storage_gb=100.0,
+    max_concurrent_queries=10,
+)
+```
+
+#### 存储隔离
+
+所有19种存储后端都实现了多租户隔离：
+
+- **基于文件**：工作空间子目录隔离
+- **基于集合**（MongoDB、Milvus）：命名空间前缀
+- **关系型**（PostgreSQL）：工作空间列过滤
+- **图数据库**（Neo4j、Memgraph）：节点标签隔离
+- **向量数据库**（Qdrant）：基于负载的分区

 ### AGENTS.md – 自动编程引导文件

 AGENTS.md 是一种简洁、开放的格式，用于指导自动编程代理完成工作（https://agents.md/）。它为 LightRAG 项目提供了一个专属且可预测的上下文与指令位置，帮助 AI 代码代理更好地开展工作。不同的 AI 代码代理不应各自维护独立的引导文件。如果某个 AI 代理无法自动识别 AGENTS.md，可使用符号链接来解决。建立符号链接后，可通过配置本地的 `.gitignore_global` 文件防止其被提交至 Git 仓库。

 To maintain compatibility with legacy data, the default workspace for PostgreSQL non-graph storage is `default` and, for PostgreSQL AGE graph storage is null, for Neo4j graph storage is `base` when no workspace is configured. For all external storages, the system provides dedicated workspace environment variables to override the common `WORKSPACE` environment variable configuration. These storage-specific workspace environment variables are: `REDIS_WORKSPACE`, `MILVUS_WORKSPACE`, `QDRANT_WORKSPACE`, `MONGODB_WORKSPACE`, `POSTGRES_WORKSPACE`, `NEO4J_WORKSPACE`.

+### 🏢 Enterprise Multi-Tenant Mode
+
+> **Contributed by [Raphaël MANSUY](https://github.com/raphaelmansuy) ([ELITIZON](https://www.elitizon.com))**
+
+LightRAG supports enterprise-grade multi-tenancy with complete data isolation, role-based access control (RBAC), and per-tenant knowledge bases. This enables SaaS deployments where multiple organizations share the same infrastructure while maintaining strict data boundaries.
+
+#### Operating Modes
+
+| Mode | Environment Variable | Description |
+|------|---------------------|-------------|
+| **Single-Tenant** (Default) | `LIGHTRAG_MULTI_TENANT=false` | Backward-compatible mode. Works exactly like the original LightRAG. No tenant context required. |
+| **Multi-Tenant** | `LIGHTRAG_MULTI_TENANT=true` | Enables tenant/KB selection in WebUI. API requests can optionally include tenant context. |
+| **Multi-Tenant Strict** | `LIGHTRAG_MULTI_TENANT_STRICT=true` | All API requests MUST include tenant context (`X-Tenant-ID`, `X-KB-ID` headers). |
+
+#### Quick Start
+
+1. **Enable multi-tenant mode** in your `.env`:
+
+```bash
+# Enable multi-tenant mode
+LIGHTRAG_MULTI_TENANT=true
+
+# Optional: Require tenant context on all requests
+# LIGHTRAG_MULTI_TENANT_STRICT=true
+```
+
+2. **Start the server**:
+
+```bash
+lightrag-server
+```
+
+3. **Create a tenant via API**:
+
+```bash
+curl -X POST http://localhost:9621/api/tenants \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{"tenant_id": "acme-corp", "tenant_name": "ACME Corporation"}'
+```
+
+4. **Create a knowledge base**:
+
+```bash
+curl -X POST http://localhost:9621/api/tenants/acme-corp/kbs \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{"kb_id": "product-docs", "kb_name": "Product Documentation"}'
+```
+
+5. **Use tenant context in requests**:
+
+```bash
+# Insert document with tenant context
+curl -X POST http://localhost:9621/documents/text \
+  -H "X-Tenant-ID: acme-corp" \
+  -H "X-KB-ID: product-docs" \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{"text": "Your document content here..."}'
+
+# Query with tenant context
+curl -X POST http://localhost:9621/query \
+  -H "X-Tenant-ID: acme-corp" \
+  -H "X-KB-ID: product-docs" \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{"query": "What is the product about?"}'
+```

+```
+
+#### Role-Based Access Control (RBAC)
+
+| Role | Permissions |
+|------|------------|
+| `admin` | Full access: manage tenant, members, KBs, documents, queries |
+| `editor` | Create/delete KBs, manage documents, run queries |
+| `viewer` | Read documents, run queries |
+| `viewer:read-only` | Run queries only |
+
+#### Backward Compatibility
+
+**No breaking changes for existing deployments:**
+
+- With `LIGHTRAG_MULTI_TENANT=false` (default), LightRAG works exactly as before
+- Existing data and APIs remain fully compatible
+- The `workspace` parameter continues to work for basic data isolation
+- Multi-tenant mode is opt-in and requires explicit configuration
+
+#### Tenant Configuration Options
+
+Each tenant can have custom configuration:
+
+```python
+TenantConfig(
+    # Model selection per tenant
+    llm_model="gpt-4o-mini",
+    embedding_model="bge-m3:latest",
+    rerank_model="jina-reranker-v2-base-multilingual",
+    
+    # Query defaults
+    top_k=40,
+    cosine_threshold=0.2,
+    
+    # Resource quotas
+    max_documents=10000,
+    max_storage_gb=100.0,
+    max_concurrent_queries=10,
+)
+```
+
+#### Storage Isolation
+
+All 19 storage backends implement multi-tenant isolation:
+
+- **File-based**: Workspace subdirectory isolation
+- **Collection-based** (MongoDB, Milvus): Namespace prefixes
+- **Relational** (PostgreSQL): Workspace column filtering
+- **Graph** (Neo4j, Memgraph): Node label isolation
+- **Vector** (Qdrant): Payload-based partitioning
+
+For detailed multi-tenant API documentation, see [LightRAG Server API](./lightrag/api/README.md).

 ### AGENTS.md -- Guiding Coding Agents

 AGENTS.md is a simple, open format for guiding coding agents (https://agents.md/). It is a dedicated, predictable place to provide the context and instructions to help AI coding agents work on LightRAG project. Different AI coders should not maintain separate guidance files individually. If any AI coder cannot automatically recognize AGENTS.md, symbolic links can be used as a solution. After establishing symbolic links, you can prevent them from being committed to the Git repository by configuring your local `.gitignore_global`.

+## Tenant Support Modules
+
+Located in `lightrag/kg/`:
+
+| Module | Coverage | Helper Classes |
+|--------|----------|----------------|

+
+## Multi-Tenant Isolation Patterns
+
+### Pattern 1: File Path Isolation
+Used by: JSON, NetworkX, NanoVectorDB, FAISS
+
+```python
+self._file_name = os.path.join(
+    self.global_config.get("working_dir", "./"),
+    self.workspace,  # <-- tenant isolation
+    f"{self.namespace}.json"
+)
+```
+
+### Pattern 2: Collection/Table Name Prefix
+Used by: MongoDB, Milvus
+
+```python
+final_namespace = f"{effective_workspace}_{self.namespace}"
+self._collection = self._db[final_namespace]
+```
+
+### Pattern 3: Query Filter Conditions
+Used by: Qdrant, PostgreSQL
+
+```python
+# Qdrant
+filter_condition = workspace_filter_condition(self.workspace)
+results = self._client.search(filter=filter_condition, ...)
+
+# PostgreSQL
+WHERE workspace_id = $1 AND ...
+```
+
+### Pattern 4: Node Labels (Graph DBs)
+Used by: Neo4j, Memgraph
+
+```python
+workspace_label = f"WORKSPACE_{self.workspace.upper()}"
+MATCH (n:{workspace_label}) WHERE ...
+```
+
+### Pattern 5: Key Prefix (KV Stores)
+Used by: Redis
+
+```python
+final_namespace = f"{self.workspace}_{self.namespace}"
+key = f"{final_namespace}:{doc_id}"
+```
+
+---
+
+## Test Coverage
+
+### Test Files (9 files, 134 tests)
+
+| Test File | Tests | Coverage |
+|-----------|-------|----------|
+| `test_multi_tenant_backends.py` | 36 | All tenant support helpers |
+| `test_tenant_security.py` | 15 | Permission enforcement, RBAC |
+| `test_tenant_models.py` | 15 | Tenant, KB, TenantContext models |
+| `test_tenant_storage_phase3.py` | 22 | Storage layer integration |
+| `test_tenant_api_routes.py` | 10 | API routes with tenant context |
+| `test_multitenant_e2e.py` | 20+ | End-to-end multi-tenant flows |
+| `test_tenant_kb_document_count.py` | 8 | Document counting per KB |
+| `test_document_routes_tenant_scoped.py` | 6 | Document isolation |
+| `e2e/test_multitenant_isolation.py` | N/A | E2E isolation tests |
+
+### Test Categories
+
+1. **Unit Tests**: Tenant helpers, key generation, filter building
+2. **Integration Tests**: Storage layer with tenant context
+3. **Security Tests**: Role-based access control, permission enforcement
+4. **E2E Tests**: Full multi-tenant workflow isolation
+
+---
+
+## Security Considerations
+
+### Verified Security Properties
+
+1. **No Cross-Tenant Leakage**: Each storage backend uses workspace-scoped queries/paths
+2. **Filter Bypass Prevention**: Tenant filters are applied at the storage layer
+3. **Key Collision Prevention**: Composite keys include tenant/KB identifiers
+4. **Role-Based Access Control**: Proper permission checking in TenantContext
+
+### Potential Areas for Review
+
+1. **Admin Operations**: Ensure admin cleanup operations respect tenant boundaries
+2. **Bulk Operations**: Verify batch operations apply tenant filters to all items
+3. **Error Messages**: Confirm error messages don't leak cross-tenant information
+
+---
+
+## Conclusion
+
+**All 19 storage backends implement multi-tenant isolation correctly.** The implementation uses consistent patterns:
+
+- File-based storage → workspace subdirectory isolation
+- Database storage → workspace column/collection prefix
+- Search/query operations → workspace filter conditions
+
+The test suite with 134 passing tests provides comprehensive coverage of multi-tenant scenarios including security, isolation, and backward compatibility.
