search-fulltext.py correctly surfaced a fabricated team-specific fact ('runs 2-week sprints, planning every other Monday') that a baseline answer with no wiki access simply couldn't know, but the skill only ships as one of five skills in a larger plugin and breaks immediately if you copy just skills/read/ without the repo-root bin/ and agents/ folders.

Scored on four weighted criteria — install, triggering, output vs. baseline, docs. How scoring works

  • Installs cleanly 4/5
  • Triggers reliably 3/5
  • Output vs. baseline 8/10
  • Docs & honesty 3/5

What Wiki Read does

Searches an existing `.wiki/` for an answer with `[[slug]]` citations, using a quick index-only scan, a standard search-then-research pipeline, or a deep raw-sources sweep. Triggers on 'check wiki', 'search wiki', 'do we have notes on', and broadly on 'what is'/'how does X work' style questions, falling back to live web research and auto-ingestion when the wiki has no answer.

How to install Wiki Read

git clone https://github.com/Oshayr/LLM-Wiki
cd LLM-Wiki
mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills
cp -r skills/read ~/.claude/skills/wiki-read

Skills live in ~/.claude/skills/ (global) or .claude/skills/ (per-project). Restart Claude Code after installing.

Commands — how to trigger Wiki Read

  • /wiki-read Full-text wiki search with cited answers, auto-researching when the wiki is empty.

It also activates on plain-language prompts like these:

  • What do we know about the migration plan, check the wiki
  • Search the wiki for notes on Q3 pricing decisions
  • Do we have existing notes on that incident postmortem?

Can I use Wiki Read with Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Codex or other AI tools?
The SKILL.md format is native to Claude (Claude Code, Desktop, claude.ai). The instructions inside adapt to other assistants: Cursor rules, GitHub Copilot instructions, Windsurf rules, Custom GPTs, AGENTS.md for OpenAI Codex, and GEMINI.md for Google Gemini CLI — our conversion guides cover each, and the free converter on the tools page does the wrapping for you.
