What Wiki Mode does

Wiki Mode reads or configures a vault's filing methodology (Generic, LYT, PARA, or Zettelkasten) and suggests destinations for planned knowledge creation without saving content or migrating notes.

Wiki Mode is cataloged under Automation on DirSkills. Wiki Mode comes from a repository tagged agent-skills, ai-note-taking, ai-second-brain, claude-code and claude-code-skill.

Documentation

README

Excerpt

Route by vault methodology

This skill returns filing suggestions. It does not write knowledge pages or move existing notes. If .vault-meta/mode.json is absent, use generic. If the file exists but is invalid, fail closed and repair it through a reviewed configuration operation before suggesting routes; never silently substitute Generic for corrupt user configuration.

Resolve the installed product root from this skill's own location, not from the vault or current working directory:

PRODUCT_ROOT=/absolute/path/to/installed/claude-obsidian
CORE="$PRODUCT_ROOT/scripts/claude-obsidian.py"
MODE_HELPER="$PRODUCT_ROOT/scripts/wiki-mode.py"
test -f "$CORE" && test -f "$MODE_HELPER"

Read and route safely

Always select the vault explicitly:
