Llmwiki Sync

What it does

When your agent uses it

• The user says sync the wiki
• Ingest recent sessions
• Refresh the knowledge base
• Asks a knowledge question that would benefit from up-to-date sessions

Example prompts

• “s llmwiki and ingest them into the wiki. Use when the user says”
• “update llmwiki”
• “ingest recent sessions”
• “/llmwiki-sync”

Requirements

• Python 3

Workflow steps

6 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

1. 1Locate the llmwiki install. Check the current working directory and common locations
2. 2Run the converter (idempotent — safe to re-run)
3. 3If N == 0, report that the wiki is up to date and stop.
4. 4If N > 0, ingest the new files into the wiki using the Ingest Workflow from the repo's CLAUDE.md. Process one project at a time. If more…
5. 5Append to wiki/log.md
6. 6Report what was converted, which wiki pages were created or updated, and any contradictions flagged.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit b108889. 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

  Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

  • python3

  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

Llmwiki Sync loads about 1.1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 98 tokens; SKILL.md has 387 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it

~98

When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches

~1.1k

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

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.

description

Sync Claude Code session transcripts into the user's llmwiki and ingest them into the wiki. Use when the user says "sync the wiki", "update llmwiki", "ingest recent sessions", "refresh the knowledge base", or asks a knowledge question that would benefit from up-to-date sessions. Also use when the user explicitly asks to refresh or rebuild the LLM wiki from their agent history.
