Wiki
This is a Hermes-native wiki workflow skill.
Why This Exists
wiki exists to keep knowledge work explicit, evidence-backed, and inside the Hermes/executor boundary instead of relying on ad hoc chat narration.
Do Not Use When
- The request is casual chat, a status-only acknowledgement, or another workflow has stronger routing evidence.
- The user needs implementation, review, CI, merge, or external publishing evidence that has not been delegated or observed.
Examples
Good example:
- Prompt: wiki: six of us keep re-answering the same questions in chat; help me stand up a wiki in Notion.
- Expected behavior: Ask who reads and maintains it and what knowledge repeats, then propose one model with its breaking conditions, a skeleton, and seed pages, without claiming the store was created.
- Why: The request is wiki construction for a shared audience, not a single note capture or connector execution.
Bad example:
- Prompt: wiki: treat casual chat or unaccepted work as if this workflow already produced verified results.
- Expected behavior: Ask a clarification question or route to a narrower workflow instead of forcing
wiki.
- Why: The request lacks the required inputs or would overclaim work that Hermes did not observe.
Completion Checklist
- Audience scale, destination, knowledge types, and maintenance owner are recorded or named as missing.
- The proposed model carries its rationale, breaking conditions, and one alternative.
- Skeleton, entry points, conventions, maintenance, and seed pages are concrete enough to start today.
- Destination-specific guidance is prepared for the named store or the unknown destination gap is explicit.
- No output claims an external write, store creation, connector run, or memory mutation without evidence.
- Separate coding or connector tasks are extracted instead of buried in notes.
Recovery Notes
- If the audience scale is unknown, ask for it before proposing structure; it changes the model.
- If nobody owns maintenance, record 'unmaintained' and choose a model that survives it.
- If source evidence conflicts, route to memory or knowledge review before writing durable guidance.
- If the destination is unknown, record the missing facts and keep the guidance vendor-neutral.
- If the fact may be stale, record the staleness warning and next refresh action.
Workflow Lane
- Current lane: Retained knowledge (
memory-new, memory-sync, decision-recall, wiki) - memory, rejected alternatives, wiki notes, retrieval, and staleness.
- If intent belongs to another lane, hand back to
oh-my-hermes or name the adjacent workflow.
- Shared product, routing, compatibility, and evidence rules:
omh-routing/references/skill-common-rail.md.
Design Interview
Settle structure before capture: audience scale, whether an agent reads it, the knowledge types that repeat, what someone will search for, and who maintains it. Skip answered turns, cap at five, and close with one model plus one alternative as a skeleton the user approves before anything is written. No maintainer means unmaintained, which rules out models needing curation.
Load references/wiki-blueprint.md for the interview turns and wiki_blueprint/v1 fields, wiki-patterns.md for models and what breaks them, wiki-operations.md for solo-versus-shared rules, and wiki-ecosystem.md for existing skills.
Boundary
A wiki_blueprint/v1 is prepared design context, not evidence that a store was created, written to, or migrated. OMH does not host the wiki; the user's own store does.
Use When
Use to design a wiki someone can start today - model, skeleton, conventions, seed pages, and maintenance sized to a personal, small-group, team, or organization audience - and to capture durable knowledge into markdown vaults, Obsidian, Notion, Google Drive/Docs, databases, or local folders.
Strong routing signals: `wiki`, `project wiki`, `build a wiki`, `start a wiki`, `organize my notes`, `external knowledge store`, `knowledge base`, `Obsidian`, `markdown vault`, `Notion knowledge base`, `Google Drive wiki`, `옵시디언`, `마크다운 볼트`, `노션 지식베이스`, `위키`, `위키 만들`, `지식베이스`, `지식 정리 체계`
Catalog Metadata
Category: knowledge
Phase: design-and-capture
Hermes role: memory-keeper
Quality tier: knowledge-gated
Reasoning demand: light
Quality bar:
- Size the structure to the audience: personal and shared wikis fail differently and get different models.
- Propose a model with its rationale, breaking conditions, and one alternative; cap seed pages at ten.
- Check existing ecosystem wiki skills before designing a bespoke structure.
- Capture durable facts with source evidence and destination-aware retrieval hints.
- Treat Obsidian as one vendor hint under a broader external knowledge connection model.
- Never present prepared wiki guidance as an observed external write, store creation, or memory mutation.
- Mark stale or uncertain knowledge instead of presenting it as permanent truth.
- Extract separate coding tasks instead of burying them in notes.
Handoff policy:
Run directly in Hermes as wiki design and retained knowledge capture; prepare connector/runtime handoff only when a separate observed external write or coding task is explicitly required.
Required inputs:
- audience scale (personal, small group, team, or organization)
- whether an agent is one of the readers
- destination or existing store
- knowledge types the wiki must hold
- maintenance owner and cadence
Expected outputs:
- wiki_blueprint/v1 with organization model, rationale, breaking conditions, and one alternative
- skeleton, entry points, conventions, maintenance routine, seed pages, and ecosystem candidates
- destination-aware note guidance with retrieval hint and staleness warning
- prepared-versus-observed external write boundary
Artifact expectations:
- wiki skeleton proposal covering sections, entry points, conventions, and maintenance
- repo-local markdown knowledge artifact or metadata-only destination guidance
Safety rules:
- Do not imply hidden Hermes runtime behavior.
- Use the smallest verification that can prove the claim.
Runtime Evidence
Preferred harness for this skill: docs-specialist.
omh runtime record --skill wiki --harness docs-specialist --status started
Record observed delegation results; otherwise return not_available or not_observed.
Prepared OMH routing is not execution, review, CI, merge-readiness, or merge evidence.
- Treat wrapper memory/context summaries as advisory local context, not proof of opaque Hermes memory reads or changes.
Preserve workflow intent and stop conditions; verify before claiming completion.
Use Hermes-native subagent/delegation features when available: native subagents -> Hermes delegation when available, otherwise sequential lanes.
Shared product, compatibility, topology, memory, harness, and execution rules: omh-routing/references/skill-common-rail.md. Load it when applicable; otherwise name an unavailable capability.
