What problem does it solve?
/init turns your local research inputs (PDFs, notes, and optional web material) into a structured EmpiricalWiki workspace and an initial, curated paper set that can be ingested in parallel.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Deterministic prepare + guided discovery: Normalizes local PDFs into prepared, canonical ingest sources and then uses planner-guided discovery to select a constrained set of candidate papers (including optional external discovery).
- Scaffold-first wiki construction: Creates the wiki skeleton and provisional pages (Summary, topics, ideas, concepts, claims) before any heavy ingestion work, preserving provenance via an exact provisional notice.
- Parallel ingest via isolated worktrees: Uses worktree-based fan-out/fan-in to ingest each selected paper safely and deterministically, then runs deduplication, rebuilding, and linting to produce a coherent final graph and index.
Quick Start
Run the init orchestration to build the wiki from your raw inputs and ingest the resulting paper set with discovery: init [topic].
