About karpathy-wiki

Karpathy Wiki A Claude Code skill for auto-maintained LLM wikis — based on Andrej Karpathy's LLM Wiki pattern. Instead of re-deriving answers from raw documents every time (RAG), the LLM incrementally builds and maintains a wiki — a structured, interlinked collection of markdown files. The wiki compounds with every source you add and every question you ask. For day-to-day usage and the workflow walkthrough, see MANUAL.md. What it does As you work with Claude Code, any durable knowledge — research findings, resolved confusions, validated patterns, gotchas, architectural decisions — gets written as a small capture file and processed by a detached background worker into a persistent wiki. The wiki is git-versioned. Your flow is never interrupted. User commands: — health report (categories, page counts, depth-violation count, soft-ceiling indicator, quality rollup, last ingest, drift, recent ingester-reported issues, fork-asymmetry). Implemented. — write a chat-driven capture (the agent's canonical entry point; supports , body via stdin or ). — drift-scan + drain on demand. — show recent ingester-reported issues, grouped and severity-ordered. — change per-cwd wiki mode.

How this security grade is produced

Grades come from a rule-based scan built on the SlowMist agent-security taxonomy, covering 11 red-flag categories including credential harvesting, data exfiltration, and curl | sh installers. It is a first-layer scan, not a manual audit — we say so rather than overstate it.

The scale of the problem is documented independently: Liu et al. (2026), in a study of 31,132 agent skills, report that 26.1% contain security vulnerabilities. Our own full-catalog census is published as a citable open dataset.
