Wiki Conventions

The wiki plugin maintains a personal knowledge base as a directory of markdown files. This skill defines the default layout, page types, frontmatter, linking rules, and bookkeeping conventions that the operation skills (wiki-ingest, wiki-query, wiki-lint) all share.

This skill is shared reference. Always load it before running any wiki operation. Each operation skill references back here for layout, frontmatter, and bookkeeping rules — and only describes its own workflow.

The user's CLAUDE.md (if present at the wiki root) is read but never written. If the user has a ## Wiki section there, follow its guidance over these defaults. Otherwise these defaults apply.

Layer separation

Keep three layers distinct.

1. Raw sources — raw/. Immutable. Read-only. Articles, PDFs, screenshots, papers. Users add files; the maintainer never edits them.
2. Wiki pages — wiki/. LLM-owned. Created, updated, and deleted by the maintainer. Users read; the maintainer writes.
3. User overrides (optional) — a ## Wiki section in the user's CLAUDE.md at the wiki root. Read but never written by the plugin.
