crux-wikilisted

A literature wiki for a crux research vault — Andrej Karpathy's LLM-wiki pattern applied to a crux project. The PI curates immutable sources under `raw/`; you (the agent) compile them into a persistent, interlinked `wiki/` of background, prior methods, SOTA, baselines, datasets, and definitions, and draw on it to ask sharper questions and design better hypotheses. The crux engine owns the bookkeeping (source hashes, the generated `WIKI.md` index, structural lint via `crux validate`); you supply the reading and synthesis. One-way by design: literature → wiki → informs the tree; a project's own findings never enter the wiki. Use when a crux user wants a project-relevant literature base. Triggers: "ingest this paper", "add to the wiki", "what does the literature say", "compile a wiki", "lint the wiki", literature review, prior work / SOTA / baselines for a crux project, crux wiki, LLM wiki.

# crux-wiki — a literature wiki for a crux vault This skill adds a **literature layer** to a crux research vault: a living, interlinked knowledge base of *prior* knowledge — background, methods, SOTA, baselines, datasets, definitions — that you maintain and draw on. It is [Andrej Karpathy's LLM-wiki pattern] (compile curated sources once into a persistent wiki; keep it current; don't re-derive on every query) instantiated on crux, so crux's deterministic engine does the bookkeeping the pattern needs. It rides on the **crux** skill and its engine (`<crux skill>/scaffold/` — the crux skill is this skill's sibling directory in your skills dir; in a repo clone, `skills/crux`). If the engine is missing, install the crux skill first (`npx skills add mehdiforoozandeh/crux --all`, or the repo's `./install.sh`). crux tracks the *new* knowledge you're producing (the Question→Hypothesis tree); crux-wiki tracks the *existing* knowledge you're building on. They are cross-linked but separate. ## The one-way flow rule (hard, load-bearing) ``` literature (raw/) → wiki/ → informs ask · hypothesize · interpreting findings ``` **Never the reverse.** The wiki is a literature source-of-truth. A crux project's own results — verdicts, findings, closed hypotheses — **never** flow into the wiki. Wiki pages may link *out* to nothing but other wiki pages and their `raw/` sources; they must never cite a `q*`/`h*` tree node. This keeps provenance clean (every wiki claim traces to a curated source,
