If **Documents** are the private files in your office and **Websites** are the public pages your agent can read, **Catalogs** are the product lists that keep your commercial information organized 🛒

This is where you manage structured product data — prices, features, specifications — so the agent can answer commercial questions with precision instead of guessing.

### 🎯 What is this for?

* **Organize product information:** Keep your products grouped into clear catalogs by type, brand or business line.
* **Improve answers:** Help the agent respond with accurate, product-specific details (prices, features, availability).
* **Keep content manageable:** Update or remove catalog content as your product list evolves.
* **Structured data:** Unlike Documents (free text), Catalogs let you maintain organized, queryable product information.

### 🛠️ How it works

At the top of the page, you can create a new catalog using the **+ Add catalog** button.

1. **Create a catalog**\
   Click **+ Add catalog** to start a new product catalog. Give it a clear name that identifies the category (e.g. `Electronics_2024` or `Wedding_Packages`).

2. **Add content**\
   Once the catalog exists, add the product information it should contain — names, descriptions, prices, features, etc.

3. **Manage catalogs**\
   Your catalogs will appear in the list, where you can review, update and maintain them over time.

### 📄 Catalog List

This page shows all catalogs currently associated with the agent.

* **Catalog name:** Identifies each product catalog.
* **Content:** Contains the product data included in that catalog.
* **Empty state:** If no catalogs have been created yet, you will see a message like **"No catalogs created."**

### 🧠 How does the agent use catalogs?

Imagine you have two catalogs:

1. `Summer_Collection` — with 50 products, prices and sizes.
2. `Accessories` — with 30 items and compatibility info.

If a user asks: *"Do you have a blue dress under \$50 and a matching bag?"*
The agent will:

1. Search `Summer_Collection` for blue dresses under \$50.
2. Search `Accessories` for bags that match.
3. Combine both results into a single, helpful answer. 🤯

### ⚠️ Important Notes

* Keep catalogs organized by product type, brand or business line.
* Make sure the information is accurate and up to date — wrong prices confuse users.
* Remove outdated catalogs so the agent does not rely on old product data.
* If you update prices or availability, update the catalog too.

### 🎓 Best Practices Summary (Cheat Sheet)

* **Clear names:** `Laptops_2024` is better than `catalog1`. When you have many catalogs, you'll be glad you named them well.
* **Group logically:** Keep related products together so the agent can cross-reference within a catalog.
* **Update regularly:** Whenever your product content changes, reflect it here.
* **One source of truth:** Avoid duplicating the same product in multiple catalogs to prevent conflicting answers.
* **Clean structure:** The better organized your data, the faster and more accurately the agent can answer.

With catalogs in place, your agent becomes a product expert that can answer commercial questions instantly. 📚✨
