LLM Wiki for Codebases

Build a persistent, interlinked markdown wiki that captures the architecture, modules, patterns, and APIs of a codebase. The wiki lives in .llm-wiki/ at the project root. Humans curate and direct; the LLM handles all bookkeeping.

Based on Andrej Karpathy's LLM Wiki pattern: raw sources are "compiled" into a structured wiki that compounds over time.

Mode Detection

Determine the mode based on current state:

• No .llm-wiki/ directory exists -> Full Build mode
• .llm-wiki/ exists -> Update mode (diff and refresh)
