# okp-doc-search — Red Hat knowledge research via okp-mcp
Research Red Hat's official documentation, solutions (KCS/KB), CVEs, and
errata through okp-mcp. This skill encodes what actually works: how to
phrase queries, how to construct `get_document` doc_ids, and how to turn a
URL into findable content.
## Principles
1. **okp-mcp first for anything Red Hat.** For RHEL / Fedora / CentOS /
OpenShift questions — system administration, security, CVEs, packages,
kernel, containers — check `search_portal` before answering from memory.
2. **Titles and descriptions outrank body snippets.** Weigh each hit's
title and Description above the passages. Before concluding anything
from a passage, return to the document title and confirm your
interpretation still matches what the document is actually about —
passages read without the title's context are a common source of wrong
conclusions.
3. **Retrieved facts beat recall.** Prefer what the tools return over what
you remember; cite the source with its URL, e.g.
`[Failed login doesn't replicate across IPA servers](https://access.redhat.com/solutions/3500801)`.
4. **The corpus is an offline snapshot — but do not assume it is stale.**
How far behind it runs depends on when it was last rebuilt; observed
2026-07-30, it carried errata and solutions from within the preceding
two weeks. Establish the cutoff from the `Issued` / `Updated` dates on
your own hits rather than pre-emptively excusing a miss. Past t
