Wiki Ingest Source

Create an immutable source page capturing raw research material (paper notes, web content, experimental data). Sources are never edited after creation — they preserve the original material.

HARD-GATE

Before creating a source page, search the vault for existing sources covering the same material. If vault_search returns a match with score > 8.0 for the source title, STOP and report the duplicate.

Tools

• vault_search (deduplication check)
• vault_index (post-creation index update)
• CC file write (page creation)

Protocol

1. Search vault for existing source with similar title/content
2. If duplicate found → report and abort
3. Write source page to sources/<slug>.md with frontmatter:

   ---
   type: source
   title: "<descriptive title>"
   created: <YYYY-MM-DD>
   origin: <url or citation>
   tags: [<relevant tags>]
   ---
   

4. Body contains raw material (quotes, data, notes) — no synthesis
5. Call vault_index (incremental) to make the page searchable
6. Return path of created source

Source Page Rules

• Immutable after creation. Never edit source pages.
• Verbatim content. Preserve original wording, data, structure.
• Attribution required. Origin field must trace back to the original.
• No interpretation. Synthesis belongs in wiki pages, not sources.

Yield

Returns: { created: string, indexed: boolean }
