Context in HALO

Context in HALO is a powerful tool designed to standardize operations within your agents and tools, enhancing consistency and security across workflows. This guide explains how to create and manage context effectively.

Accessing Context

You can find the Context option in the navigation panel at the bottom of the left-side menu. This feature simplifies the process of standardizing essential values, such as tool labels and API keys, ensuring uniformity across all HALO applications.

Creating and Managing Context

Creating a New Context

  • Initiate Creation: Click the blue "+" sign to create a new context.

  • Name: Enter a clear context name that accurately represents the content and purpose of the context. This aids in easy identification and management.

Defining Default Values

  • Default Value: In the default value field, input standardized values to be used whenever the context is invoked. This can be a tool name, API key, or any repetitive information that ensures uniform application throughout HALO.

Security and Privacy

  • Private Setting: You can set the context as private to secure sensitive data, such as API keys. This measure is essential for maintaining confidentiality within your profile.

Utilizing Allowed Values

  • Automatic Correction: Define allowed values to automatically replace common typos or abbreviations with the default value. This feature is particularly useful for standardizing names or terms prone to misspellings, such as company names.

Benefits of Context

Employing context within HALO helps maintain consistency and efficiency across your agents and tools by standardizing inputs. This leads to streamlined processes and enhances the accuracy of interactions with external systems. Whenever a change is required, such as an updated API key, you only need to modify the context value without manually adjusting each instance across HALO.

Optimizing Workflow with Context

By effectively managing context, you ensure a high level of standardization and security in your HALO environment. Implement these practices to optimize your agents’ performance and improve workflow efficiency, leading to more reliable and accurate operations.
