Onboarding research agent for new-hire engineering questions
An agent that takes an open-ended onboarding question, plans multi-step lookups across Confluence and GitLab wikis.

What it does
Handles broad, multi-part onboarding questions like "how do I get a dev environment running and ship my first change" that no single doc answers. An agent decomposes the question, runs several retrievals across Confluence and GitLab wikis, and assembles a step-by-step guide with a citation on every step, then delivers it to the new hire in Discord.
When to use it
During engineer onboarding, when answers are spread across many pages and a single retrieval misses context. Better than a one-shot bot for questions that genuinely require chaining several lookups.
How it works
- 1A new hire posts a question via the onboarding Discord channel trigger.
- 2The agent plans sub-questions and retrieves from Confluence and GitLab wikis across multiple passes.
- 3It checks coverage and re-queries for any gap before answering.
- 4OpenAI assembles a structured, ordered walkthrough citing each source step.
- 5The completed guide is posted back to the new hire in their Discord thread.
