Add generative answer nodes (SearchAndSummarizeContent or AnswerQuestionWithAI) to a Copilot Studio topic. Use this instead of /add-node when the user asks to add grounded answers, knowledge search, generative answers, or AI-powered responses — these nodes require specific patterns (ConditionGroup follow-up, knowledge source references, autoSend, responseCaptureType) that /add-node does not cover.

# Add Generative Answers

Add `SearchAndSummarizeContent` nodes to generate responses grounded in the agent's knowledge sources.

## Important: Do You Even Need a Topic?

When knowledge sources are added to the agent (via `/add-knowledge`), the AI can **directly search them without any topic** if it recognizes a QnA-style query. A dedicated topic with `SearchAndSummarizeContent` is useful when:
- You want to **restrict the search to a subset of knowledge sources** (not all of them)
- You want to **control the flow** around the answer (e.g., follow-up questions, formatting, adaptive cards)
- You want to **process the response** before showing it (e.g., extract content, combine with other data)
- You want to **use a specific input** other than the user's last message

If the user just wants the agent to answer questions from its knowledge, adding the knowledge source may be enough.
