A literature wiki for a crux research vault — Andrej Karpathy's LLM-wiki pattern applied to a crux project. The PI curates immutable sources under `raw/`; you (the agent) compile them into a persistent, interlinked `wiki/` of background, prior methods, SOTA, baselines, datasets, and definitions, and draw on it to ask sharper questions and design better hypotheses. The crux engine owns the bookkeeping (source hashes, the generated `WIKI.md` index, structural lint via `crux validate`); you…
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# crux-wiki — a literature wiki for a crux vault This skill adds a **literature layer** to a crux research vault: a living, interlinked knowledge base of *prior* knowledge — background, methods, SOTA, baselines, datasets, definitions — that you maintain and draw on. It is [Andrej Karpathy's LLM-wiki pattern] (compile curated sources once into a persistent wiki; keep it current; don't re-derive on every query) instantiated on crux, so crux's deterministic engine does the bookkeeping the pattern needs. It rides on the **crux** skill and its engine (`<crux skill>/scaffold/` — the crux skill is this skill's sibling directory in your skills dir; in a repo clone, `skills/crux`). If the engine is missing, install the crux skill first (`npx skills add mehdiforoozandeh/crux --all`, or the repo's `./install.sh`). crux tracks the *new* knowledge you're producing (the Question→Hypothesis tree); crux-wiki tracks the *existing* knowledge you're building on. They are cross-linked but separate. ## The one-way flow rule (hard, load-bearing) ``` literature (raw/) → wiki/ → informs ask · hypothesize · interpreting findings ``` …

How to install
mdr add mehdiforoozandeh/crux/crux-wiki@sha256:f5cb8290648ad6c4The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
