SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Cross-root knowledge graphs often contain silos and forgotten-but-relevant links. This skill surfaces cross-node connections, flags contradictions, and seeds missing links to improve consistency and retrieval.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Deterministic candidate ranking across shared-targets, co-mentions, and node relevance, derived from the octopus synthesize core over the octopus kr registry.
  • Contradiction detection and guidance: surfaces authorities and cited notes to help human judgment determine inconsistencies.
  • Link seeding with --fix to seed unambiguous missing relationships when mentions map to a single node.

Use cases include knowledge maintenance, knowledge-base enhancement, and auditing relationships across docs, memory, and consigliere roots.

Quick Start

Invoke the knowledge-synthesize skill to surface cross-node connections and seed missing links across your knowledge roots.

FAQPage Schema
How do I find missing cross-node connections in a knowledge graph?

To detect contradictions in knowledge bases, this skill surfaces relevant authorities and cited notes to guide human judgment in identifying inconsistencies across cross-node relationships.

How do I seed missing links across knowledge roots without altering data structures?

You can seed missing links across knowledge roots without altering underlying data structures by using the optional --fix flag to seed unambiguous relationships where mentions map to a single node.

Can I focus cross-link synthesis on a specific node in my knowledge base?

Yes, you can focus cross-link synthesis on a specific node in your knowledge base by applying the optional --node parameter to target and rank relationship candidates for that particular entry.

What is the best way to audit relationships across docs and memory roots?

The best way to audit relationships across docs and memory roots is to invoke a synthesis process that surfaces forgotten-but-relevant links and flags contradictions for knowledge maintenance.

Does cross-link seeding permanently modify my underlying knowledge data?

No, cross-link seeding does not permanently modify your underlying knowledge data; the process deterministically evaluates candidates and seeds missing relationships without altering the underlying data structures.
