`./scripts/validate.sh` to ensure code is formatted and linted.
- [ ] Self-review completed: A thorough review has been performed by the

## Additional Notes

LanceDb natively does not allow `name_exists`. This is a very
inefficient workaround. To be updated when native search for a doc name
is added by LanceDb. `name_exists` is used by the `WebsiteKnowledgeBase`
