llm-wiki

A personal knowledge base that an LLM maintains for you. Drop raw data in (call transcripts, emails, docs), run the compiler, and get a structured, interlinked wiki you can query instantly.

Inspired by Andrej Karpathy's approach to using LLMs as knowledge compilers.

How It Works

• raw/ - Your source material. Transcripts, emails, docs. Never edited by the LLM.
• wiki/ - LLM-compiled articles. Structured, interlinked, searchable. The LLM maintains this - you read it.

• Ingest - Drop a new file in raw/, run the compiler, wiki updates
• Query - Ask a question, LLM reads the wiki and gives you a sourced answer
• Lint - Periodic health check finds contradictions, stale content, broken links

Quick Start

1. Set up your project

Open this folder in Claude Code or as a Cowork project. The CLAUDE.md file tells Claude how to use the wiki.

2. Drop your first raw files

Put some source material in the right folder:

• Call transcripts/meeting notes - raw/calls/
• Email summaries - raw/email/
• Everything else (docs, specs, research) - raw/docs/

Name files: YYYY-MM-DD_Description_Type.ext (e.g., 2025-06-15_Sprint-Review_Summary.md)

3. Run the first compile

Tell Claude: "compile the wiki"

It will read your raw files, generate wiki articles, and populate the indexes. Your first compile builds the wiki from scratch. After that, compiles are incremental - only new data gets processed.
