Grounded Vault

A grounded vault is a three-layer Markdown store in which every compiled claim can be traced back to an immutable source and every page can be checked for staleness with one git diff. It needs a git repository and nothing else. The convention comes from the llm-wiki-loop project, which is a reference implementation rather than a dependency; this skill teaches the pattern so it works with plain files and whatever agent is in the session.

When to Use

• An agent compiles notes, papers, transcripts, logs, or code into wiki pages that later sessions rely on.
• A page cites numbers, dates, or quotes, and a reader must be able to verify each one against its source.
• Pages describe code, and rereading the codebase every session to check whether they still hold is too expensive.
• Knowledge must be corrected without losing history: superseded pages are archived, never deleted.

Session state, task queues, and conversation continuity are a different problem; use the context-management or conductor plugins for those. This skill is about provenance and drift on a durable knowledge store.
