/pin-llm-wiki

Automates Karpathy's LLM wiki pattern: drop URLs in inbox.md, the skill fetches, ingests, and maintains a cited, agent-readable knowledge base.

Trigger phrases

• /pin-llm-wiki (with subcommands: init, ingest, lint, queue, remove)
• “Pin this YouTube video to my LLM wiki”
• “Ingest these research links into my wiki”
• “Run pin-llm-wiki lint on this knowledge base”
• “Queue these URLs, then batch-process the inbox”
• “Initialize a new Karpathy-style wiki with pin-llm-wiki”

inbox.md (human drops URLs)
    ↓  fetch
raw/  (immutable source captures)
    ↓  ingest
wiki/  (LLM-maintained, cited, linked)
    ↓  lint
a healthy, queryable knowledge base

Phase 1 subcommands

Skill directory

This SKILL.md and all sibling files (ingest.md, init.md, lint.md, remove.md, queue.md, ingest-protocol.md, templates/...) live inside the skill directory: ~/.claude/skills/pin-llm-wiki/, ~/.copilot/skills/pin-llm-wiki/, ~/.cursor/skills/pin-llm-wiki/, or the project-local .claude/skills/ / .copilot/skills/ / .cursor/skills/ equivalents. In this repository the canonical copy is skills/pin-llm-wiki/. All templates/... and sibling-file paths in this skill are relative to whichever skill directory the loading tool used.

Dispatch

1. Identify the subcommand from the invocation args (the first word after /pin-llm-wiki).
2. Route — read the sibling file in this skill directory and follow its instructions exactly:
   • init → init.md (no Guard required — it scaffolds the wiki)
   • ingest → ingest.md (with or without a URL arg)
   • lint → lint.md
   • remove → remove.md
   • queue → queue.md
3. Guard (every subcommand except init): confirm .pin-llm-wiki.yml exists in the current working directory. If absent, stop with: "No wiki found here (.pin-llm-wiki.yml missing). Run /pin-llm-wiki init to scaffold one first." Subcommand files repeat this check by reference; you only need to enforce it once per invocation.
4. Do not proceed beyond this dispatch step before reading the target file.

Git policy (canonical)

Never run git commit or git push after any subcommand — init, ingest, refresh, lint, remove, queue, or any auto-fix — unless the human explicitly asked to commit in this conversation. Subcommand files reference this policy without restating it. The wiki's own AGENTS.md carries the same rule for downstream agents.
