What it does
My LLM Wiki is an agent skill from MartinLwx/dotfiles. Provides access to the user's personal wiki, including notes, research, project documentation, decisions, and archived knowledge. Use this skill whenever the user wants to: ingest a new source into the wiki, find answers from the existing wiki, perform a health check of the wiki, or apply recurring workflow patterns (book digest planning, base file population, re-digest, taxonomy promotion, survey digests).
Its SKILL.md is about 2.7k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 11 other files, including reference files (for example `references/audit.py`, `references/book-digest.md` and `references/book-entity-template.md`). Compatibility notes: Primary interface: the obsidian CLI against the wiki's vault (requires Obsidian running). Optional CLIs: defuddle (web capture), python3 (health-check audit…
It sits in Knowledge Management, covering LLM wikis, Second brain and Note-taking. It works with Obsidian.
When your agent uses it
- The user wants to: ingest a new source into the wiki
- Find answers from the existing wiki
- Perform a health check of the wiki
- Apply recurring workflow patterns (book digest planning
Example prompts
- “Use the my-llm-wiki skill to provide access to the user's personal wiki, including notes, research, project documentation, decisions, and archived…”
- “/my-llm-wiki”
Requirements
- Python 3
- Compatibility (from SKILL.md): Primary interface: the `obsidian` CLI against the wiki's vault (requires Obsidian running). Optional CLIs: `defuddle` (web capture), `python3` (health-check audit script). When Obsidian is not running, vault operations degrade to file tools (read/write/edit) with identical semantics.
Workflow steps
4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Probe: obsidian vault. Not installed / no app running →
- Resolve the vault: WIKI_PATH set → match against
- Pin it: pass vault="" on EVERY command — the
- Paths are vault-root-relative: path=wiki/entity/foo.md;
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit ff7631f. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
Ships script files (Python), which the agent can run.
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md.
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.
Compatibility
Primary interface: the `obsidian` CLI against the wiki's vault (requires Obsidian running). Optional CLIs: `defuddle` (web capture), `python3` (health-check audit script). When Obsidian is not running, vault operations degrade to file tools (read/write/edit) with identical semantics.
From compatibility in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Context cost
My LLM Wiki loads about 2.7k tokens when it runs, and up to ~18k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 106 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,080 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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 passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
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); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.
SKILL.md
Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 1,080 words (~2,654 tokens).
“Set via WIKI_PATH environment variable. Defaults to current directory. Raise warning if current'directory is not satisfied.”
