SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Auto-loaded into every conversation by the karpathy-wiki SessionStart hook. This is the loader — it tells the agent WHEN to capture and points at the full operational skills (karpathy-wiki-capture for authoring, karpathy-wiki-ingest for the spawned ingester). Read this preamble; load the on-demand skills only when their moment arrives.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Automatically activates the capture workflow at session start by routing to karpathy-wiki-capture.
  • Orchestrates the ingestion pathway via karpathy-wiki-ingest when durable captures are ready to be stored.
  • Defers to on-demand skills and keeps the main agent lean by loading only when needed.

Quick Start

Start a session and rely on this loader to enable the on-demand capture and ingest skills when you need them.

Frequently Asked Questions about using-karpathy-wiki

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

FAQPage Schema
How do I auto-load Claude Code skills for capturing and ingesting wiki content?

You can auto-load wiki capture and ingest skills by using a SessionStart hook that routes to a loader, which defers to on-demand skills for actual capture and ingest operations.

When does the agent trigger wiki ingestion versus content capture?

The agent triggers wiki content capture during active sessions and initiates ingestion when durable captures are ready to be stored, using a loader to route between the two operations.

Do I need to manually load capture and ingest skills into my session?

No, you do not need to manually load skills. A loader orchestrates automatic activation at session start and applies across conversations to load on-demand skills only when needed.

How does the wiki loader keep the main agent lean?

The wiki loader keeps the main agent lean by deferring to on-demand skills for actual operations, loading the full capture and ingest workflows only when their specific moment arrives.

Can I use this loader to directly write and store wiki entries?

No, the loader itself does not write or store entries. It directs the agent to use the appropriate on-demand skills, specifically pointing at karpathy-wiki-capture for authoring and karpathy-wiki-ingest for storage.

What are the limitations of using an auto-loader for wiki skill orchestration?

The auto-loader respects YAML frontmatter entry points but cannot perform actual capture or ingestion itself; it is limited to routing the agent to the appropriate on-demand operational skills.
