Wiki Query

Pre-condition

SCHEMA.md

~/wikis/

wiki-init

Process

1. Read

wiki/index.md

first

2. Read relevant pages

[[slug]]

3. Synthesize the answer

• Is grounded in the wiki pages you read
• Cites inline using

  [[slug]]

  for every claim sourced from a specific page
• Notes agreements and disagreements between pages
• Flags gaps: "The wiki has no page on X" or "[[page]] doesn't cover Y yet"
• Suggests follow-up sources to ingest or questions to investigate

• Factual → prose with citations
• Comparison → table
• How-it-works → numbered steps
• What-do-we-know-about-X → structured summary with open questions

4. Always offer to save

"Worth saving as

wiki/pages/<suggested-slug>.md

?"

• Write the page with frontmatter:

  tags: [query, analysis]

  ,

  sources: [all cited slugs]

• Add entry to

  wiki/index.md

  under the correct category (Analyses or similar)
• Append to

  wiki/log.md

  :

  ## [<today>] query | <question summary>
  Filed as: [[<slug>]]

• Append to

  wiki/log.md

  :

  ## [<today>] query | <question summary>
  Not filed.

Common Mistakes

• Answering from memory — Always read the wiki pages. The wiki may contradict what you think you know, and that contradiction is valuable signal.
• Skipping the save offer — Good query answers compound the wiki's value. Always offer.
• No citations — Every factual claim should trace back to a

  [[slug]]
