What it does

Wiki Ingest is an agent skill from paperclipai/paperclip. Use when an operation issue asks to ingest a captured raw/ source into the LLM Wiki, or the user says "ingest <slug". Create durable source, entity, concept, synthesis, index, and log pages; use paperclip-distill for Paperclip bundles.

Its SKILL.md is about 930 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Knowledge Management, covering LLM wikis. The repository describes itself as: The open-source app everyone uses to manage agents at work. The licence is MIT.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit de9ab8e. 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
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.
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.

Context cost

Wiki Ingest loads about 933 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 63 tokens; SKILL.md has 457 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it: ~63
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches: ~933

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.

name: wiki-ingest
description: Use when an operation issue asks to ingest a captured `raw/` source into the LLM Wiki, or the user says "ingest <slug>". Create durable source, entity, concept, synthesis, index, and log pages; use paperclip-distill for Paperclip bundles.

Wiki Ingest

Turn one source document into durable, interlinked wiki knowledge.

Inputs

An operation issue with operationType: "ingest" assigned to you.
A raw/ path mentioned in the issue body (always treat raw/ as immutable).
The operation issue's target wikiId, spaceSlug, and space root (otherwise stop and surface the missing config to the requester).

Workflow

Read context first.
- Read the target space's AGENTS.md for page conventions (filenames, frontmatter, voice, citation style).
- Read the target space's wiki/index.md to see what already exists.
- Read the target space's last ~20 entries of wiki/log.md to avoid re-ingesting a source or re-resolving a contradiction someone else already filed.
Read the source end to end with wiki_read_source, passing the operation issue's wikiId and spaceSlug. Do not skim. Note the source's structure, claims, dates, and anything that contradicts existing pages.
Plan, then confirm — but only if the user is in the loop. If the operation came from a routine (no live user), proceed. If a user is asking interactively, summarise the 3–5 takeaways you intend to file and ask which to emphasise before writing.
Write the source page at wiki/sources/<slug>.md — ~300–800 words, frontmatter per the wiki schema, neutral voice, key claims with quoted excerpts where they carry weight. The source page is the canonical citation target for everything else this skill writes.
Update or create downstream pages in entities/, concepts/, and synthesis/. A typical ingest touches 5–15 pages; resist creating pages for ideas that only appear once.
Wire the cross-links. Every claim that comes from the source cites it as (see [[wiki/sources/<slug>]]). Every entity / concept mentioned by name on more than one page links to its dedicated page.
Flag contradictions; do not silently overwrite. When new material disagrees with an existing page, append a > ⚠ contradicted by [[wiki/sources/<slug>]] (YYYY-MM-DD) callout to the older page and note the conflict in the log.
Refresh wiki/index.md with one-line summaries for any new pages.

Append a log entry in wiki/log.md:

## [YYYY-MM-DD] ingest | <source title>
- source: raw/<filename>
- new pages: [[...]], [[...]]
- updated pages: [[...]], [[...]]
- notes: <one-line synthesis or open question>

Show full SKILL.md (131 more words)Show less

Voice

Terse, factual, neutral. Reference material, not narrative.
No "Today I learned" or "This is interesting because" framing.
Quote the source verbatim when paraphrasing would lose precision.

Verification

Before closing the operation issue:

Source page exists at wiki/sources/<slug>.md with valid frontmatter and a sources: field pointing to the raw path.
Every new or updated page links back to the source page or a downstream page that does.
wiki/index.md lists every new page under the right category with a one-line summary.
wiki/log.md has the ingest entry with the exact filename heading format (so grep "^## \[" wiki/log.md keeps working).
Any contradiction between the new source and an older page is annotated, not silently overwritten.
No file under raw/ was modified.

Tools

wiki_list_sources, wiki_read_source, wiki_search, wiki_read_page, wiki_write_page. Always include the operation issue's wikiId and spaceSlug.
