There is no required number of Modules. Start with knowledge that an agent needs for real work, such as a decision you keep explaining or something agents often get wrong.

You can create that Module yourself on [cortex.socra.com](https://cortex.socra.com). Open **Modules**, select **New module**, and write what should be true. You can also add its dependencies there.

Your agents can do the writing with you. Continue working with them as usual and explain what should be true when the subject comes up. If the knowledge will matter again, an agent can suggest a new Module. If an existing Module already covers the subject, it can suggest an update.

The agent shows you the exact proposed text before changing anything. For an update, it shows the current text and the proposed text. You can approve, revise, or reject it. Cortex preserves the change after you approve it.

Your work is to provide judgment. You decide what should be true and explain the context future agents will need. You can write Modules directly when you want full control, or let your agents draft and maintain them as knowledge emerges through your work.

Cortex becomes useful when an agent flashes a relevant Module before acting. Even one Module can stop a repeated mistake or save you from explaining the same decision again.

As you continue working, you and your agents can add or update Modules when useful knowledge emerges. Your knowledge base grows through real work at the pace your systems require.
