What data looks like for this category
Typical entities in this category include panel furniture, solid wood furniture, custom home and door enterprises. Daily generated documents include cutting plans, cutting material lists, edge banding and drilling programs, coating process documents, hardware bill of materials, assembly and packaging records. Data mainly comes from order design systems, plate and wood batch ledgers, CNC cutting and drilling equipment, ERP/MES systems, and moisture content testing equipment. Data update rhythm changes with orders, daily or per batch of materials, involving custom panel part parameters, process requirements and material information.
What constraints these characteristics impose on tool calling and plugins
The custom attribute of this category creates demand for cross-document associated queries. Tool calling must support entity relationship retrieval across multiple document types such as cutting plans and cutting material lists. Frequently updated plate batch and process parameter data requires plugin configurations to adapt to real-time or near-real-time data synchronization logic. The need to verify high-precision parameters such as panel size and hole positions requires tool call return results to match exact fields and units. Custom orders have a large number of panel parts, so single tool calls must limit the number of returned results to avoid context overload that disrupts production workflows.
How to set configurations
This setup is based on FastGPT v4.17.0.
| Configuration Item | Recommended Setting | Rationale |
|---|---|---|
| Workflow/API tool selection | auto | Adapts to multi-scenario tool calling needs for this category, supports automatic matching of tasks such as production parameter verification and document associated queries |
| Workflow/API function-call configuration | Calibrated based on actual testing | Adapts to personalized parameter requirements for custom orders, supports flexible binding of multiple document types such as cutting plans and cutting material lists |
| Single search limit | Top 10 entries | Matches the characteristic of large number of panel parts per custom order, avoids context overload caused by excessive results |
| Maximum context | 8000–12000 token | Adapts to content length requirements for cross-document associated queries, covers multiple types of data such as cutting plans and process documents |
| Query optimization | Enabled | Optimizes query wording for production parameters and bill of materials, improves matching accuracy of tool calls |
| Response timeout | 600 seconds | Adapts to real-time requirements in production links, avoids excessive waiting that disrupts workshop workflows |
Three common configuration errors
- Mismatch between the number of returned results and expected when calling tools, with symptoms of insufficient or excessive returned results. Cause: Failure to adjust the single search limit configuration based on the number of panel parts per order, leading to context overload or insufficient retrieval.
- Tool call prompts invalid knowledge base ID, with symptoms of the interface displaying the error "Target knowledge base not found". Cause: Failure to correctly bind the knowledge base ID corresponding to cutting plans and cutting material lists in API requests, or failure to synchronize and update global variable configurations.
- No returned data after workflow calls tools, with symptoms of workflow node status showing timeout. Cause: Failure to adjust the response timeout configuration to a reasonable duration matching production links, leading to timeout triggered before production data query is completed.
How to confirm configurations are properly set
- Initiate a tool call request for panel size parameters, verify that returned results include corresponding fields and units from cutting plans and cutting material lists.
- Check API request parameters, confirm that the target knowledge base ID has been correctly bound, or that global variable configurations match actual knowledge base paths.
- Run a test workflow, verify that the response duration of tool calls meets production expectations, with no abnormal timeout prompts.
- Adjust the
toolChoiceconfiguration toauto, initiate multi-scenario queries, confirm that tools can automatically match tasks such as production parameter verification and document associated queries.
