LLM Wiki: Optimize

Compact, reorganize, and improve the wiki. This is the "gardening" operation — it makes the wiki better without adding new sources.

Step 1: Audit

Read all wiki pages and build a picture of the current state:

1. Read wiki/index.md for the master inventory.
2. Glob all .md files in wiki/ recursively.
3. For each page, read frontmatter and scan for wikilinks.
4. Build an in-memory graph: pages as nodes, wikilinks as edges.

Identify issues:

Compaction Candidates

• Pages that are unnecessarily verbose (ratio of content to information is high)
• Source summaries that just repeat the original without synthesis
• Redundant information repeated across multiple pages

Merge Candidates

• Pages covering the same entity/concept under different names
• Entity pages that are too small to stand alone — could be sections of a larger page
• Near-duplicate content across pages

Reorganization Candidates

• Pages in the wrong directory (e.g., a concept in entities/, an entity in concepts/)
• Pages missing frontmatter or with incorrect type fields
• Filenames that don't follow kebab-case convention

Cross-Reference Gaps

• Pages that mention entities/concepts without wikilinks
• Entity/concept pages mentioned in sources but lacking backlinks
• Important relationships between pages that aren't explicitly linked

Synthesis Opportunities

• Topics covered by 3+ sources that lack a synthesis page
• Emerging patterns or themes across multiple pages
• Comparisons that would be valuable but haven't been written

Step 2: Plan

Present findings to the user as a categorized list:

• Compact: N pages to tighten
• Merge: N page groups to consolidate
• Reorganize: N pages to move/rename
• Link: N cross-reference gaps to fill
• Synthesize: N synthesis pages to create

Ask the user which categories to proceed with (default: all).

Step 3: Execute

Process each category. Use parallel subagents where changes are independent.

Compaction

• Rewrite verbose pages to be more concise while preserving all facts
• Remove redundant passages that exist elsewhere in the wiki
• Tighten source summaries to focus on unique insights

Merging

• When merging pages, combine all information and sources from both
• Update all wikilinks across the wiki to point to the merged page
• Delete the redundant page
• Update index.md

Reorganization

• Move misplaced files to correct directories
• Rename files to follow kebab-case convention
• Fix frontmatter type fields
• Update all wikilinks that referenced the old name/path

Cross-Reference Strengthening

• Add missing wikilinks within page content
• Ensure bidirectional links (A→B implies B→A mention)
• Add "Related" sections where they're missing

Synthesis Generation

• For topics with rich coverage, write synthesis pages in wiki/synthesis/
• Synthesis pages should: compare perspectives across sources, identify consensus vs. disagreement, note gaps in coverage, present an evolving thesis
• Follow the standard frontmatter template with type: synthesis

Step 4: Rebuild Index

After all changes, rebuild wiki/index.md from scratch by scanning all wiki pages.

Step 5: Reindex qmd

qmd update

Step 6: Log

Append to wiki/log.md:

## [YYYY-MM-DD] optimize | Wiki optimization pass
- Pages compacted: N
- Pages merged: N (list)
- Pages reorganized: N
- Cross-references added: N
- Synthesis pages created: N (list)

Step 7: Report

Summarize all changes made. Highlight any synthesis pages created — these are often the most valuable output of an optimization pass.
