    Skill enables autonomous high-impact decisions without human-in-the-loop verification. Critical operations (destructive commands, financial transactions, data deletion) should require explicit user confirmation.
    Fix: Add human-in-the-loop confirmation for destructive, irreversible, or high-impact operations. Never auto-execute commands that modify files, send data, or alter system state.

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

compile-knowledge 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 1mo 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 — 256 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Compile Knowledge

Reads raw inputs from a project and compiles/updates a knowledge/ wiki — a collection of LLM-maintained markdown articles that synthesise everything known about the project's domain.

When to Use

  • After a literature review to consolidate findings
  • After a series of sessions on a project to build up the knowledge base
  • When starting work on a project and wanting to understand the state of knowledge
  • Periodically to keep the knowledge wiki fresh

When NOT to Use

  • For structural project audits — use an installed research-project audit workflow
  • For atlas topic metadata — that stays in the vault
  • For session-specific notes — those go in log/

Architecture

The knowledge wiki lives at <project>/knowledge/:

knowledge/
  _index.md          ← auto-maintained index with brief summaries
  concept-name.md    ← one article per concept
  concept-name-2.md

The LLM owns this directory. the user rarely edits it directly. The value is in the compilation — connecting dots across sources that no single document contains.


Modes

Mode Invocation Behaviour
Interactive (default) compile-knowledge [project-path] Phases run normally; mid-run nudges allowed where useful; end-of-run summary requires no confirmation but the user can inspect output and re-run.
Autonomous compile-knowledge [project-path] --autonomous (or -y) End-to-end run with zero prompts. All decisions take the documented default. Single end-of-run summary is the only user-facing output. Used by the Saturday wiki-grow cron to refresh project knowledge before the wiki-promotion pass.

Autonomous-mode defaults (every choice point)

When --autonomous / -y is set, the skill takes these defaults silently:

Choice point Default
Project path unresolved (CWD not a research project) Fail with a single one-line error to stderr. Do not prompt for path.
No sources found in Phase 1 Skip remaining phases; emit No sources to compile. and exit clean.
Concept granularity uncertain Prefer 400-600 word articles, specific scope over generic. Err on the side of fewer, sharper concepts.
Article exists but scope shifted Update in place when overlap ≥50% with new finding; create new article only when genuinely orthogonal.
Contradictions between sources Flag explicitly in prose ("Source A says X, Source B says Y") — never silently pick a side.
Source can't be parsed (encoding, malformed) Log to the Gaps section in _index.md; continue with remaining sources.
Atlas topic match in Phase 5 is 0 or >1 Skip silently (already documented in Phase 5.4).
Article exceeds 1000 words Split into two articles by sub-theme; never truncate findings.

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.

compile-knowledge is a skill published in the GitHub repository flonat/flonat-research (147 stars, last pushed 20d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 56 tokens to every session and 2,415 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5.5. 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 2026-09-03.
