Agentprivacy Wiki Journal

Fedwiki Journal Skill

The fedwiki-journal skill removes accumulated edit history from a federated wiki page. It preserves the page's title and story content while replacing the entire journal array with a single create entry — making the page look freshly created.

Why Journals Accumulate

Every edit made through the wiki UI appends an entry to the journal array. When pages are forked between sites, they carry their complete history along with them. A page like Changes to this Site may have been forked through half a dozen sites over many years, dragging a long attribution chain with it.

Stripping the journal is valuable when:

• Creating template copies of a page
• Removing irrelevant attribution chains from remote sources
• Preparing a page for clean publication

What the Skill Does

It keeps title and story unchanged and replaces the journal with a single create entry containing the current timestamp and certificate:

"journal": [{
  "type": "create",
  "item": {
    "title": "Page Title",
    "story": [ /* the complete, unchanged story array — every item, same order */ ]
  },
  "date": 1781004226000,
  "certificate": "from marvin"
}]

The date uses Unix milliseconds. The item.story must be the complete story array (every item, identical order) — exactly as in the create-journal rule of the page skill.

Trigger Phrases

• "Strip the journal from X"
• "Clean the journal on this page"
• "Reset the journal for X"
• "Make this page look freshly created"
• "Remove the fork history from X"

File Locations

• Public wiki: ~/Nextcloud/fedwiki/{domain}/pages/{slug}
• Private wiki: ~/Music/Guides/Private/{domain}/pages/{slug}

Private wiki edits require running the reindex skill afterward so the server picks up the change.
