# Karpathy's LLM Wiki Build and maintain a persistent, compounding knowledge base as interlinked markdown files. Based on [Andrej Karpathy's LLM Wiki pattern](https://gist.github.com/karpathy/442a6bf555914893e9891c11519de94f). Unlike traditional RAG (which rediscovers knowledge from scratch per query), the wiki compiles knowledge once and keeps it current. Cross-references are already there. Contradictions have already been flagged. Synthesis reflects everything ingested. **Division of labor:** The human curates sources and directs analysis. The agent summarizes, cross-references, files, and maintains consistency. ## When This Skill Activates Use this skill when the user: - Asks to create, build, or start a wiki or knowledge base - Asks to ingest, add, or process a source into their wiki - Asks a question and an existing wiki is present at the configured path - Asks to lint, audit, or health-check their wiki - References their wiki, knowledge base, or "notes" in a research context ## Wiki Location Configured via `skills.config.wiki.path` in `~/.hermes/config.yaml` (prompted during `hermes config migrate` or `hermes setup`): ```yaml skills: config: wiki: path: ~/wiki ``` Falls back to `~/wiki` default. The resolved path is injected when this skill loads — check the `[Skill config: ...]` block above for the active value. The wiki is just a directory of markdown files — open it in Obsidian, VS Code, or any editor. No database, no special tooling required. ...
