Files & Knowledge

Your Genie has its own persistent filesystem. Upload documents, notes, and data — Genie can read, search, and work with all of it.


Uploading files

From the Files page on your dashboard:

  • Drag and drop files from your computer

  • Create new files directly in the browser

  • Upload folders for bulk imports

You can also send files through Telegram or Discord — Genie saves them to your server.


Supported file types

Genie can work with most file types:

  • Documents — PDF, Word, text files, markdown

  • Spreadsheets — CSV, Excel

  • Code — Any programming language

  • Images — PNG, JPEG, GIF, WebP

  • Audio — MP3, WAV (can transcribe speech)

  • Archives — ZIP, tar files

If Genie can't directly read a format, it can often install a tool to convert it.


Using files in conversations

Once files are on your server, you can reference them in chat:

  • "Summarize the PDF I uploaded yesterday"

  • "Find all mentions of 'budget' in my notes folder"

  • "Compare these two spreadsheets and highlight the differences"

Genie has direct access to the filesystem, so it can read, search, and process files as part of your conversation.


Knowledge base

Think of your Genie's filesystem as a personal knowledge base. The more relevant documents you upload, the better Genie can help you:

  • Project docs — Keep specs, requirements, and design documents accessible

  • Reference materials — Style guides, procedures, templates

  • Meeting notes — Upload summaries so Genie can recall past discussions

  • Personal notes — Ideas, bookmarks, snippets


File management

From the Files page, you can:

  • Browse directories

  • View file contents

  • Create, rename, and delete files

  • Download files to your computer

You also have terminal access for advanced file operations — move, copy, grep, or run scripts on your data.
