nemo-knows

A persistent, LLM-curated Markdown wiki with a local ingest pipeline, review gates, deterministic evaluation, and an optional browser console.

nemo-knows turns raw source files into a maintained knowledge layer. Instead of re-running retrieval and synthesis on every question, it pays the synthesis cost at ingest time, stores the result as interlinked Markdown, and lets future queries read from a wiki that already contains summaries, concepts, topic syntheses, citations, and known disagreements.

The pattern follows Andrej Karpathy's llm-wiki.md, with an opinionated file schema and a small Go toolchain around it.

What This Project Is

nemo-knows is both a knowledge-base convention and a local tool:

• A plain-file wiki under wiki/, maintained by LLM agents according to

AGENTS.md.

• An immutable source area under raw/, where original documents live.
• A review buffer under drafts/, where model output lands before it can be

accepted into the wiki.

• A Go CLI, nemo, for draft generation, review, evaluation, linting, and

explicitly approved wiki writes.

• A local web console, nemo-web, for browsing the wiki graph, importing

source-like pages, and starting reviewable ingest jobs.

The project deliberately uses Markdown, Git, and local files first. It does not require a database, vector store, search service, or always-on backend.
