--- title: Schema type: schema visibility: public --- # Schema This wiki uses the **Karpathy LLM Wiki pattern**: three layers that separate raw evidence, compiled knowledge, and structural metadata. ## Three Layers ### `daily/` — Raw Dated Entries Immutable source documents, organized chronologically. Each file is named `YYYY-MM-DD-topic-slug.md`. These are Jeremy's original thinking entries — idea lists, reading notes, experiments, reflections. **269 entries** spanning 2014–2020. Browse chronologically via [[log]]. ### `wiki/` — LLM-Maintained Synthesis Pages Compiled topic pages that synthesize across many daily entries. The LLM owns this layer — creates pages, updates them when new sources arrive, maintains cross-references. Current synthesis pages: - [[wiki/machine-intelligence|Machine Intelligence]] - [[wiki/thinking-frameworks|Thinking Frameworks]] - [[wiki/learning-and-education|Learning and Education]] - [[wiki/creativity-and-ideas|Creativity and Ideas]] - [[wiki/focus-and-productivity|Focus and Productivity]] - [[wiki/career-and-ambition|Career and Ambition]] - [[wiki/human-nature|Human Nature]] - [[wiki/ai-safety-and-alignment|AI Safety and Alignment]] - [[wiki/research-and-science|Research and Science]] - [[wiki/decision-making|Decision Making]] - [[wiki/books-and-reading|Books and Reading]] - [[wiki/social-and-community|Social and Community]] - [[wiki/startup-and-business|Startup and Business]] - [[wiki/writing-and-communication|Writing and Communication]] - [[wiki/memetics-and-ideas|Memetics and Ideas]] ### Root — Topic Pages ~190 standalone topic pages live at the root level. These are deep dives into specific subjects (e.g., [[abstraction]], [[decision-making]], [[meta-modeling]]). They sit between daily entries and wiki synthesis pages in depth. ### `schema.md` (this file) — Structural Metadata Describes how the wiki is organized, what conventions to follow, and how the layers interact. ## Page Format Every wiki page has two layers: - **Compiled truth** (above the `---` divider): current best understanding, rewritten freely - **Timeline** (below the `---` divider): append-only evidence trail with dates ## Frontmatter ```yaml --- title: Page Title type: topic | person | project | idea | source-summary visibility: public tags: [area1, area2] sources: [daily/2017-08-07-deep-problems.md] --- ``` ## Wikilinks Inline wikilinks are what make this a knowledge graph: - Weave links into prose: `[[meta-modeling|Meta-modeling]] is central to [[thinking-frameworks|thinking frameworks]]` - Link on first mention only per section - Cross-category links are the most valuable ## Operations ### Ingest When processing a new source: read it, identify entities, update or create wiki pages, add wikilinks, update index and log. ### Query Read index to find relevant pages, synthesize answer, file valuable answers back as wiki pages. ### Lint Periodically check for contradictions, stale claims, orphan pages, missing cross-references.
