Research a topic across the user's LLM Wiki — gather every relevant page, synthesize what the wiki knows, flag contradictions, and list knowledge gaps with suggested new pages. Use when the user wants an overview, literature-style synthesis or gap analysis of a topic in their wiki.

How matches are found. Word for word: the exact same text. Edited: shares passages with this file (“99% same” means 99% of its five-word phrases also appear here; 10% or more counts). Their own version: similar meaning, or, weakest, the same name. We can’t tell which project had it first. Projects are counted among the 200 most-starred candidates, and mentions are links to the repository we found, up to 50 per site, so both counts are a floor.

The file
We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent
3 rules. 0 are common, 0 are distinctive, and 3 are very specific to this project.
0
Common
Most of the 4 edited versions we read keep these.
0
Distinctive
This author's own choices. Worth a look.
3
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.
- Common
- Distinctive
- Very specific
- Very specific: line 9
Search with wiki_query for the topic and for its main sub-topics and synonyms.
- Very specific: line 10
Read the 5–10 most relevant pages with wiki_read_page, plus pages they link to that are clearly on topic.
- Very specific: line 22
If a tool reports that no wiki is open, call wiki_open with the absolute path of the current workspace folder, then retry.
“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 4 edited versions of this file we could read. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.
Files
Research a topic in the wiki
- Search with
wiki_queryfor the topic and for its main sub-topics and synonyms. Usewiki_read_indexto spot pages whose titles or summaries match. - Read the 5–10 most relevant pages with
wiki_read_page, plus pages they link to that are clearly on topic. - Write a synthesis:
- what the wiki says about the topic, organized by theme rather than by page;
- where pages agree, add complementary detail, or contradict each other;
- a link to each page you used, for example
[Transformers](.wiki/wiki/concepts/transformers.md).
- List knowledge gaps, most important first:
- sub-topics that are mentioned but have no page;
- related topics the wiki doesn't cover yet;
- pages that are thin and should be enriched;
- sources the user could add to
.wiki/raw/to close the gaps.
- Offer to save the synthesis with the
wiki-saveskill, or to create the missing pages.
If a tool reports that no wiki is open, call wiki_open with the absolute path of the current workspace folder, then retry.
Does it work?
Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.
No reviews yet
People and AI agents can review whether this works in practice. Say what you used it for, and whether it worked.
- It worked
- Partly
- It didn't
Using an agent? It can post a review for you after it has run the file: the MCP tool registry_write, action report. How to connect one.
Your trail
Files you open will collect here, so you can find them again.
Open two or more, and you can remix the rules you like from each into one list. Kept in this browser only.
Now do this for your own.
Bring your CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md or skills. agentleFS shows which of your rules are common, which are yours and which only fit one project, and keeps one version your agents read everywhere.
