What it does

LLM Wiki is an agent skill from infranodus/skills. Guide users through setting up a personal LLM-maintained wiki — a persistent, compounding knowledge base where the LLM incrementally builds and maintains interlinked markdown pages from raw sources. Use this skill when the user wants to: set up a personal knowledge base, create a research wiki, organize notes with LLM help, build a "second brain", set up an Obsidian + LLM workflow, create a persistent knowledge graph from documents, plan research priorities and next steps, or mentions "LLM wiki". This skill asks…

Its SKILL.md is about 8.6k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 6 other files, including scripts and reference files (for example `references/acquire-and-process.md`, `references/knowledge-graphs.md` and `references/structure-templates.md`).

It sits in Knowledge Management, covering LLM wikis and Second brain. It works with Obsidian. The repository describes itself as: Skills to augment LLM thinking process, integrated with InfraNodus insight generation tool.

When your agent uses it

  • The user wants to: set up a personal knowledge base
  • Create a research wiki
  • Organize notes with LLM help
  • Build a second brain

Example prompts

  • “second brain”
  • “LLM wiki”
  • “/llm-wiki”

Requirements

  • Python 3
  • Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Read, Write, Edit, Grep, Glob, AskUserQuestion, Bash, WebFetch, WebSearch, Skill

Workflow steps

10 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. DISCOVER — What Are You Building This For?
  2. SCOPE — How Big and How Deep?
  3. STRUCTURE — Design the Directory Layout
  4. SCHEMA — Write the Configuration Document
  5. WORKFLOWS — Define the Operations
  6. TOOLING — Set Up the Environment
  7. SCAFFOLD — Create the Directory Structure
  8. ACQUIRE — Get Sources Into raw/
  9. PROCESS — Ingest raw/ → wiki/
  10. PLAN — Research Direction and Todo Planning

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 8a2a909. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:

    • Read
    • Write
    • Edit
    • Grep
    • Glob
    • AskUserQuestion
    • Bash
    • WebFetch
    • WebSearch
    • Skill

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Ships 1 file in scripts/ (Python), which the agent can run.

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • python3
    • git

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

    • infranodus.com

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

LLM Wiki loads about 8.6k tokens when it runs, and up to ~15k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 222 tokens; SKILL.md has 4,307 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~222
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~8.6k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~15k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check: notes

The automated check noted patterns worth knowing about, such as sudo or a known installer.

  • NotePre-approves every shell command (allowed-tools: Bash)SKILL.md
    allowed-tools: Read, Write, Edit, Grep, Glob, AskUserQuestion, Bash, WebFetch, WebSearch, Skill

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 4,307 words (~8,596 tokens).

“A guided, multi-phase workflow for designing and scaffolding a personal LLM-maintained wiki. The core idea: instead of re-deriving knowledge from raw documents on every query (like RAG), the LLM incrementally builds a persistent wiki — extracting, cross-referencing, and synthesizing knowledge…”
