| name | wiki-think |
| description | Argues with your notes in an Obsidian-based LLM knowledge wiki — challenges assumptions (devil's advocate), surfaces non-obvious connections, or asks Socratic questions. Optionally saves the result as a wiki page. Triggers when the user runs /wiki:think, asks to "challenge this note", "poke holes in my thinking", "find connections between my notes", or "ask me Socratic questions about X". |
wiki-think
When to invoke
The user runs /wiki:think <topic-or-page> [--mode challenge|connect|socratic] [--save],
or asks the assistant to challenge a note, find connections across notes, or ask
probing questions about a topic in the wiki.
Configuration
Same vault layout as wiki-ingest. Default mode (no --mode) is challenge.
Modes are combinable: --mode challenge,connect.
Workflow
-
Load context (index-first). Read <wiki-root>/_wiki/index.md, identify the
page(s) matching the topic, and read them plus their directly related: pages.
-
Apply the requested mode(s) using references/thinking-modes.md:
challenge — surface weak assumptions, counter-examples, and blind spots.connect — find non-obvious links between distant pages; propose new
cross-references or a hub theme.socratic — ask a short sequence of probing questions instead of answering.
-
Output to terminal by default.
-
--save → write <wiki-root>/_wiki/thinking/<slug>.md with frontmatter
kind: wiki, type: thinking, sources: set to the referenced page paths,
related: set to those pages (bidirectional — add the back-reference on each).
Then run the write-time validation gate:
python3 "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/_shared/scripts/validate.py" \
--vault-root "<wiki-root>" --target "<thinking-file>" \
--rules frontmatter,kindtype,deadlinks,asymmetric
Resolve critical findings before finalizing. type: thinking is exempt from
the empty-sources: semantic rule, so a thinking page with no sources is valid.
Output
- Terminal: the challenge / connections / questions for the chosen mode(s).
- With
--save: the created thinking/<slug>.md path and any cross-references added.
