SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill unit provides structured guidance for working within a Knowledge Base project, ensuring a well-organized and maintainable repository of information.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Structured Workflow: Defines a three-layer workflow for managing knowledge: external-sources/, research/, and articles/.
  • Source-Grounded Knowledge: Ensures all knowledge is traceable back to its original source, preventing link rot.
  • Per-Folder Rules: Outlines specific rules for each folder to maintain data integrity and consistency.
  • Status Flow: Describes the status changes for research and articles as they progress through the workflow.
  • Log Discipline: Establishes a strict logging system to maintain an audit trail of all changes.

Quick Start

Use the ok seed --pack knowledge-base command to install the knowledge-base pack and begin working on your Knowledge Base project.

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I structure a knowledge base project to prevent link rot and ensure information is traceable?

Maintain a knowledge base audit trail by establishing a strict logging system that records all changes. This log discipline tracks status flow changes for research and articles, ensuring accountability and consistency throughout the knowledge lifecycle management process.

What is the best way to manage the lifecycle of articles and research in an information management workflow?

Manage the article and research lifecycle through a structured workflow with predefined status flow rules. Using specific commands, you progress items through defined stages from external sources to final articles, maintaining per-folder rules for data consistency.

Do I need a specific MCP server to use this structured knowledge base workflow?

Yes, this structured knowledge base workflow requires the OpenKnowledge MCP server to function. You must have this server running to execute the predefined commands and manage the knowledge lifecycle within the three-layer folder layout.

How do I start building a knowledge base with a structured workflow using predefined commands?

Start building a knowledge base by running the ok seed --pack knowledge-base command. This installs the knowledge-base pack, setting up the three-layer layout and workflow rules so you can immediately begin managing source-grounded information.

Why does my knowledge base workflow require strict logging and per-folder rules?

Your knowledge base workflow requires strict logging and per-folder rules to maintain data integrity and consistency across the three layers. This discipline enforces source-grounded knowledge practices and creates an audit trail for all lifecycle changes.
