And I'll put one together tonight. Out of this conversation, we'll keep pushing stuff to it. Okay, on WikiHub, and then it's a great use of LLM wiki." And: > "Just trying to get this thing into an LLM wiki before I lose the thread here." The conversation **wanted** to become a wiki. It already had the structure of one — a tour through entities, concepts, projects, practices, all interlinked. The transcript is the raw layer; this site is the wiki layer. ## The Karpathy pattern, applied here [[Andrej Karpathy]] published an LLM-wiki gist in April 2026. The structure: 1. **Raw sources** (`raw/`) — immutable. The LLM reads but never modifies. 2. **Wiki** (`wiki/`) — LLM-generated markdown. Concept, entity, summary, comparison pages. The LLM owns this layer entirely. 3. **Schema** (`AGENTS.md`) — config telling the LLM how to structure, ingest, format, cross-reference. This wiki maps cleanly onto that: | Karpathy layer | This wiki | |----------------|-----------| | `raw/` | The otter.ai transcript, in two forms (cleaned + byte-for-byte) | | `wiki/` | 44 pages: themes, concepts, entities, projects, practices | | schema | [AGENTS.md](../../AGENTS.md), with the page-type taxonomy and ingestion protocol | | `index.md` | Content catalog, by category | | `log.md` | Append-only ingestion record | ## Why this medium fits this content Jacob's vision is **graph-shaped**. A linear essay doesn't capture it because the same node ([[Sparks of Motivation]]) appears in: - the [[IdeaFlow]] product story (capturing them) - the [[Inner Ecosystem]] philosophy (subconscious sparks unifying) - the [[Collective Intelligence]] vision (humanity's collective open gestalts) - the [[Super Conscious State]] practice (sparks of vitality directed inward) A wiki lets you land on any of those four, see the link, and traverse to the others. An essay forces a single ordering that suppresses three of the four. ## Ripple updates Karpathy's signature observation: ingesting one source can update 10-15 wiki pages. This is the magic. If Jacob does another conversation tomorrow about, say, his thoughts on contemplative-education curricula, ingesting the new transcript should: - Create a new theme page (e.g. `themes/contemplative-education-curriculum.md`) - **Update** [[Iyengar Yoga]], [[Qigong (Arms-Up Position)]], [[Stages of Adult Development]] with new sections - **Update** [[Vision for the World]] to reference the new theme - Potentially create new entity pages (any new teachers/authors he names) The append-only [log.md](../../log.md) is what makes the ripple traceable. ## The LLM is the programmer; WikiHub is the IDE Karpathy's slogan: *"The LLM is the programmer; Obsidian is the IDE; the wiki is the codebase."* For this wiki: **WikiHub is the IDE.** Specifically: - WikiHub renders `[[wikilinks]]` natively - Frontmatter is parsed and indexed - Pages live in a real git repo (the wiki is also a clone-able repo) - Search is fuzzy and full-text - The whole site is API-addressable, so future ingestions can be done by an LLM script via HTTP This is the **purpose** of WikiHub. From the [WikiHub landing page](https://wikihub.globalbr.ai/): "GitHub for LLM wikis." ## What this wiki is *not* - **Not a transcript viewer.** The transcript is in `raw/`; everything in `wiki/` is summary, synthesis, and cross-reference. - **Not the final say.** Many pages are flagged `confidence: speculative` or `low`. The LLM (initially Claude Opus 4.7) made judgment calls on attribution, framing, and emphasis. Jacob is welcome to overwrite. - **Not exhaustive.** GPS noise was stripped. Side conversations (about Harrison's pause app, Dana coming home, the bikes in the garage) are mentioned only where they color the main content. ## Future ingestions Anything Jacob wants to add — a podcast, an essay, a Slack export, another otter recording — should: 1. Land in `raw/` as-is (or with a cleaned companion). 2. Get an entry in [log.md](../../log.md). 3. Trigger ripple updates per the [AGENTS.md schema](../../AGENTS.md#ingestion-protocol). The wiki grows. The vision crystallizes.
