OpenRAG includes some sample documents that you can use to see how the agent references documents in the [**Chat**](/chat).
You might want to [delete these documents](#delete-knowledge) before uploading your own documents to avoid polluting the agent's context with these samples.
OpenRAG includes some initial documents about OpenRAG. You can use these documents to ask OpenRAG about itself, and to test the [**Chat**](/chat) feature before uploading your own documents.

Be aware that both of these operations are destructive and cannot be undone.
In particular, resetting containers reverts your OpenRAG instance to the initial state as though it were a fresh installation.
To clear your entire knowledge base, delete the contents of the `./opensearch-data` folder in your OpenRAG installation directory.
