+# AI Lab
+
+## Purpose
+
+AI Lab is a workspace for experimenting with AI-assisted retrieval on top of YaCy's index.
+
+Use it to test how indexed documents can support model-assisted answers before making the behavior part of a production workflow.
+
+## What You Can Do Here
+
+- AI Lab is a workspace for experimenting with AI-assisted retrieval on top of YaCy's index.
+- Use representative queries or documents when evaluating changes.
+- Change one model, field, weight, or threshold at a time so the effect can be explained.
+
+## Page Architecture
+
+Ranking and analysis pages expose the signals that influence result order or retrieval augmentation. The visible form usually maps directly to weights, model choices, field selections, or diagnostic thresholds.
+
+## Correct Use
+
+Use representative test queries or documents. Ranking, analysis, and AI settings are meaningful only when their effect can be compared. Keep notes about changed weights, model choices, fields, or thresholds.
+
+## Access And Safety
+
+The page is normally public or read-only, unless the peer is configured to require authentication for all pages.
+
+## Automation And API
+
+Page backend: `source/net/yacy/htroot/AILab.java`.
+
+No request parameters are needed for normal use of this page.
+
+## What To Expect
+
+Expect configuration values, diagnostics, or changed result behavior. The effect may only become visible after running the same query again, re-indexing fields, or using the configured model/RAG workflow.
