refresh

A command for checking whether articles in a local wiki, a collection of linked reference pages, are still up to date. It fetches their sources again, detects changes, and can offer updates for stale articles.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for regular wiki maintenance, source rechecking, stale-article detection, and guided updates.
Why use it?
It reduces the manual work of opening every source and comparing it with the wiki. It also follows configured wiki locations and stops when required access is unavailable instead of silently using the wrong location.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

refresh scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Your task

Resolve the wiki. Do NOT search the filesystem or read reference files — follow these steps:

  1. Read $HOME/.config/llm-wiki/config.json. If it has hub_path, expand leading ~ only (not tildes in com~apple~CloudDocs) and prefer that path; use resolved_path only as a fallback cache when the expanded hub_path is unavailable and resolved_path is initialized. If config has only resolved_path, use it. If the configured path can be statted but reading wikis.json or listing topics/ fails with Operation not permitted, stop and ask the user to grant Full Disk Access/iCloud Drive access to the launcher; do not fall back to ~/wiki or resolved_path. Do not write machine-specific resolved_path into shared configs.
  2. If no config → read $HOME/wiki/_index.md. If it exists → HUB = $HOME/wiki. If nothing found, ask the user where to create the wiki.
  3. Wiki location (first match): --local.wiki/ in CWD; --wiki all → HUB with an ALL_TOPICS flag for step 5; --wiki <name>HUB/wikis.json lookup with portable path resolution (<HUB>, ~, absolute, or HUB-relative); if the registry path is stale, fall back to HUB/topics/<name>; CWD has .wiki/ → use it; else → HUB.
  4. Read <wiki>/_index.md to verify. If missing → stop with "No wiki found. Run /wiki init first."
  5. Hub-level detection: Refresh operates on articles inside a single topic wiki. The HUB has no wiki/ subdirectory. If ALL_TOPICS is set from --wiki all, read registered topic wikis from HUB/wikis.json (excluding the synthetic hub entry) and iterate refresh against each topic wiki sequentially. If the resolved wiki is the HUB (detected by the presence of wikis.json and the absence of a wiki/ subdir) AND the user did not pass --wiki <name>, do NOT iterate against an empty topic surface. Instead, present a numbered list of registered topic wikis from HUB/wikis.json and ask the user to pick one. Re-resolve the wiki path with the selected name (HUB/topics/<name>/) and continue.

Check whether wiki articles are still current by re-examining their sources. This is NOT automatic recompilation — it's a human-gated assessment of what may have changed.

Inventory awareness: if refresh finds a source that needs later follow-up, monitoring, replacement, or access repair, offer an inventory record or update an existing one. Do not create records for every minor stale article; reserve inventory for durable watch items and blocked actions.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

refresh is a command published in the GitHub repository nvk/llm-wiki (1,175 stars, last pushed 5d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 24 tokens to every session and 1,941 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
