wiki-ingest

To ingest documents into an Obsidian wiki, the skill distills knowledge from files or directories into interconnected pages. It processes articles, papers, and notes, generating wiki pages complete with frontmatter metadata and provenance markers.

The raw mode workflow handles drafts staged in the _raw directory, promoting them into the main Obsidian wiki. It processes unstructured notes, distilling their content into interconnected wiki pages with lifecycle metadata when files are dropped into the vault.

To prevent re-ingesting unchanged sources in Obsidian, the skill uses manifest-driven change detection. It reads the vault manifest and current index during the ingestion process to identify which documents have actually been modified.

Yes, Obsidian wiki ingestion supports automated cross-linking between pages. During the knowledge distillation process, the skill automatically generates cross-links to existing pages in the vault based on the resolved link format configuration.

Available ingest modes for processing documents include Append, Full, and Raw. These modes utilize manifest-driven change detection to manage the knowledge base, accommodating initial imports, updates, and raw-draft promotions efficiently.
