What does this do better than just asking your agent to "write docs" or a more robustly defined prompt/skill?

maintaining an LLM wiki has been a lot more effort than I thought, at least if we are trying to maintain a high quality in structure and writing comprehension (for easier lookups both for the agent and human). Are people just shotgunning their agent wikis or how

This is mostly a thin clintypescript wrapper around the prompts. This could have been a SKILL

We need to make an effort to distinguish “this is a thing for humans” vs “this is a thing for bots” in our naming IMHO. In that respect, “open wiki” is not such a great name. “Agent Wiki” or similar would be better. Without such a qualifier, “wiki” carries a strong connotation of (usually collaborative) human involvement. That’s literally what it’s famous for. Thats just my $0.02 on the naming. I definitely think it’s a worthwhile idea. All the best.
