/wiki-query¶

Slash Command Source

Ask the wiki a question. The librarian reads index.md first, picks relevant pages across categories, synthesizes an answer with citations, and offers to file the answer back into the wiki so your explorations compound.

Usage¶

/wiki-query "<your question>"
/wiki-query "what does the wiki say about sparse autoencoders?"
/wiki-query "compare monosemanticity and polysemanticity across my sources"
/wiki-query "which sources disagree on scaling laws?"
/wiki-query "give me a comparison table of SAE vs linear probing"

What happens¶

Index-first read — reads wiki/index.md to find relevant pages
Drill-in — reads 3-10 pages in full (synthesis + concepts + sources + entities)
Follow links — opportunistically follows wikilinks between pages
Fallback search — if the index isn't enough, runs scripts/wiki_search.py (BM25)
Synthesize — composes a direct answer + supporting detail + inline [[sources/xxx]] citations + "Related pages" section
Offer to file back — asks whether to save this as a new wiki page (usually in comparisons/ or synthesis/)

Output formats¶

The answer's format follows the question:

Question shape	Output
"What is X?"	Markdown explanation with citations
"A vs B"	Comparison table
"Give me a slide deck on X"	Markdown synthesis → `/wiki-marp` to render
"Chart the trend in X"	Python script + saved chart in `wiki/assets/charts/`

Sub-agent¶

This command dispatches the wiki-librarian sub-agent. See agents/wiki-librarian.md.

Scripts¶

engineering/llm-wiki/scripts/wiki_search.py — BM25 fallback search
engineering/llm-wiki/scripts/append_log.py — log filed answers

Rules¶

Read the index first. No grep-everything.
Every claim cites a page with a [[wikilink]].
Offer to file the answer back — but only for substantive answers worth keeping.
