SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? When a task references a specific project, person, or note the user has saved, generic answers feel impersonal. This Skill retrieves the relevant note from the user's local OpenClicky wiki so responses reflect the user's own context and voice. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Index-driven lookup: Reads the wiki's _index.md with aliases to match user phrasings to the right note without guessing filenames. - Targeted note retrieval: Reads only the 1-2 relevant notes (projects, people, personality) instead of scanning everything, saving tokens and latency. - Keyword fallback search: Uses grep across the wiki when the applicable note is unclear. - Use Case: When asked to "draft a reply about my project OpenClicky," the Skill reads the matching project note and personality note so the draft matches the user's voice and facts. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to draft a message about one of your saved projects or people, and it will look up the matching note in your local wiki before writing.

FAQPage Schema
How do I look up a saved note about a project or person?

Start by reading the wiki's _index.md, which lists each note as a title, path, and description plus aliases. Match the user's phrasing against the aliases, then read only the one or two targeted note files that apply.

What is the OpenClicky personal wiki used for?

It is a local collection of plain markdown notes about the user's projects, people, and references that persists across agent runs. It supplies user-specific context so responses match the user's voice and facts instead of generic answers.

Can this skill edit or create wiki notes?

No, it is strictly read-only and never creates, edits, or deletes wiki content. Writing to the wiki is handled by the separate save-wiki skill, which has its own flows.

When should the wiki not be consulted?

Skip it for purely factual, mechanical, or generic tasks like math, public knowledge, code refactors, or file operations with no tone implications. The user's overall personality is already inlined in the system prompt, so tone matching alone does not require a wiki read.

What if no matching note exists in the wiki?

If the index and a grep keyword search turn up nothing relevant, proceed with the task without the note rather than stalling. The wiki is context, not a constraint, and the user's current request always takes priority.
