Abstract: Metacognition-the ability to monitor one’s own knowledge state, spot gaps, and autonomously fill them–remains largely absent from modern AI. Here, we present MetaKGEnrich, a fully automated pipeline that endows large language model (LLM) applications with self-directed knowledge repair. The system (i) builds knowledge graphs from a seed query, (ii) detects sparse regions via seven graph metrics, (iii) has GPT-4o generate targeted questions, (iv) retrieves web evidence with Tavily and ingests it into Neo4j, and (v) re-answers the query with GraphRAG for GPT-4 to evaluate improvement. Tested on 30 queries from each of three widely-used datasets: Google Research Natural Questions, MS MARCO, and Hot-potQA. MetaKGEnrich improved answer quality in 80% of HotpotQA questions, 87% of Google Research Natural Questions and 83% of MS MARCO questions, while preserving well-supported regions. This proof of concept demonstrates how topological self-diagnosis plus targeted retrieval can advance AI toward humanlike metacognitive learning.
