om-scogo Wiki Ingest — Knowledge Base Compiler
Compile any text content (articles, documents, notes) into structured wiki pages with cross-references, building a searchable, interconnected knowledge network.
IRON LAW: One wiki page = one knowledge entity. Never cram multiple concepts into one page.
Wiki Directory Structure
Wiki defaults to wiki/ under the current project root. User may specify a different path.
wiki/
├── index.md # Full table of contents
├── log.md # Append-only operation log
├── concepts/ # Core concept pages
├── products/ # Product/tool entity pages
├── patterns/ # Engineering patterns & design decisions
└── comparisons/ # Cross-topic comparison pages
Workflow
1. Confirm Input
Accept user-specified content source:
- Pasted text directly
- File path(s) (md, txt, pdf, etc.)
- Directory path (batch processing)
If user doesn't specify a wiki path, use wiki/. Create the directory if it doesn't exist.
2. Check Existing Wiki
Read wiki/index.md (if exists) to understand existing pages and avoid duplicates.
3. Extract Knowledge Entities
Extract from content:
- Concepts (
concepts/): Abstract ideas, terminology, theories - Products (
products/): Specific products, tools, services - Patterns (
patterns/): Engineering patterns, design decisions, methodologies - Comparisons (
comparisons/): Cross-product or cross-approach analysis
Extraction threshold: An entity deserves its own page only if it would be referenced by other pages.
4. Create or Update Pages
Each entity maps to one wiki page.
→ Load references/page-templates.md for page templates.
Rules:
- If page already exists → update it, append new information, don't overwrite existing content
- Keep the one-line definition stable unless the new content provides a clearly better one
- Prioritize updating "Sources" and "Related Pages" sections
5. Update Cross-References
Check all existing wiki pages. If new content involves concepts referenced in other pages:
- Update their Related Pages list
- Update their Sources list
- Supplement new information in their detail sections
6. Update index.md
Add new page entries to wiki/index.md, organized by category.
7. Append to log.md
Append to wiki/log.md:
## YYYY-MM-DD: Ingest <source title>
**Source**: <file path or "user input">
**New pages**: list newly created pages
**Updated pages**: list modified pages
**New cross-references**: list newly established links
8. Report Results
Tell user: what pages were created, what pages were updated, what new cross-references were established.
File Naming
- All lowercase, hyphen-separated:
agent-loop.md,kv-cache.md - Name by entity, not by number
Cross-Reference Format
- Use
[[category/page-name]]double-link format (Obsidian-compatible), e.g.[[concepts/agent-loop]],[[products/claude-code]] - Always include the category prefix to avoid ambiguity across directories
- List all related pages at the bottom of each page
Guidelines
- Never create duplicate pages — always check wiki/ first
- Don't extract trivial entities — if a concept appears once and won't be referenced elsewhere, skip it
- For batch processing: extract all entities first, then create pages and update references in one pass to avoid inconsistent intermediate states
- Always update index.md and log.md after every ingest
