obsidian-wiki is a framework that helps AI agents build and maintain an interconnected knowledge base from text-based material in an Obsidian vault. It is for people who want their agents to remember discoveries, connect related information, and answer questions with wiki-link citations. Catalogue add-ons provide the agent skills, instructions, agents, and configuration used to create and maintain these wikis.
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.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00129 | $0.03949 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00064 | $0.01975 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00026 | $0.00790 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00013 | $0.00395 |
Grade A, and why
wiki-dedup 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 10d 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.

How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 321 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Wiki Dedup — Identity Resolution and Page-Level Deduplication
You are finding and merging wiki pages that cover the same concept under different names. This is a write-heavy, potentially destructive skill — page merges cannot be automatically undone. Work carefully and confirm before acting in merge mode.
Follow the Retrieval Primitives table in llm-wiki/SKILL.md. The candidate-detection pass uses only frontmatter and titles (cheap). Only open full page bodies for confirmed candidate pairs.
Before You Start
Writing profile: Before drafting or rewriting natural-language Markdown, read and apply the Writing Profile Resolution section in llm-wiki/SKILL.md. Framework schema, provenance, safety, and operation-specific requirements take precedence.
WRITING.md preferences apply only to newly drafted or rewritten natural-language Markdown; preserve source content and structured records.
- Resolve config — follow the Config Resolution Protocol in
llm-wiki/SKILL.md(inline@nameoverride → walk up CWD for.env→ global config → prompt setup). This givesOBSIDIAN_VAULT_PATHandOBSIDIAN_LINK_FORMAT. - Read
index.mdto get the full page inventory with one-line descriptions and tags. - Read
log.mdbriefly — if a dedup run just happened, note what was already merged.
Modes
| Mode | Flag | Behavior |
|---|---|---|
| Audit | (default) | Report candidates only — no writes |
| Merge | --merge |
Show each confirmed pair, ask for confirmation before merging |
| Auto-merge | --auto |
Merge all high-confidence pairs (score ≥ 0.90) non-interactively |
If the user doesn't specify, run in Audit mode and present findings before asking whether to proceed.
Step 1: Build the Page Registry
Glob all .md files in the vault (excluding _archives/, _raw/, .obsidian/, index.md, log.md, hot.md, _insights.md, and any file that contains redirects_to: in its frontmatter — those are already merged redirect stubs).
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.

wiki-dedup is a skill published in the GitHub repository Ar9av/obsidian-wiki (3,378 stars, last pushed 3d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 129 tokens to every session and 3,949 once invoked, about $0.0006 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.

knowledge-base-management
A lifecycle system for managing an Obsidian knowledge base, which is a folder of linked notes. It organizes raw material, AI-maintained wiki pages, and generated views into separate layers.
llm-wiki
Maintain a personal team knowledge base using the LLM Wiki pattern — incremental ingest, query, and lint operations on a layered wiki architecture.
llm-wiki
Build and maintain a persistent, interlinked Obsidian-compatible markdown wiki using Karpathy's LLM Wiki pattern. Extension-backed with auto-generated metadata, guardrails, and 14 custom tools (+3 opt-in agent-trajectory tools).
link-memory
Use after important user-approved decisions, when durable context should be proposed or reviewed, and for explicit Link memory lifecycle work: remember, recall, review, update, archive, restore, forget, or explain local memories through the CLI without requiring MCP.
link-retrieve
Use before answering work that may depend on user memory, project history, source-backed notes, or prior decisions; retrieve compact Link context through the CLI without loading the whole wiki or requiring MCP.
link-ingest
Use when raw files are present, source pages look stale, or a user asks to ingest notes into Link; refresh source-backed wiki pages, propose memories, and validate updates through the CLI without MCP.
