What Wiki Capture does

Wiki Capture saves the current conversation as a permanent, structured wiki note, classifying the content and placing it in the correct vault category. Use it when the user says "save this" or wants to turn the discussion into lasting knowledge, or use quick mode for fast staging.

Wiki Capture is cataloged under Writing on DirSkills. Wiki Capture comes from a repository tagged agent-skills, brain, knowledge-base, llm-tools and obsidian.

Claude History Ingest

Claude History Ingest extracts knowledge from past Claude Code conversations and distills it into an Obsidian wiki. Use it to mine ~/.claude history, import session logs and memory files, and extract insights from previous coding sessions while skipping noisy tool and thinking blocks.

Code Understand

Code Understand builds a ranked, citation-backed focus map of a codebase β€” the files and symbols an architecture actually hangs on β€” using CodeGraph when available or a dependency-free builtin extractor otherwise. Use it to orient in an unfamiliar or large codebase before editing.

Cross-Linker

Cross-Linker scans an Obsidian wiki and automatically discovers missing cross-references between pages, then inserts [[wikilinks]] to connect them. Use it after large ingestions or when pages feel disconnected to weave new content into the knowledge graph.
