LLM Wiki Newsroom

A multi-agent AI knowledge base run by a five-role "newsroom" — open-source, local-first, no vendor lock-in. Drop articles, documents, and PDFs into the raw/ folder, type a single command, and the newsroom — powered by an agent like Claude Code — reads them, extracts entities, concepts, and relationships, and organizes everything into a fully cross-referenced wiki, a structured and persistent alternative to RAG. Unlike most takes on the idea, the agent that writes a page is never the one that reviews it, and the authoring guidelines evolve themselves over time. Every new document you add also enriches the existing pages. This repo ships with a small example corpus — the debate over what "open source" means for AI — under wiki/, but the framework is domain-agnostic.

Most knowledge tools leave the finding to you. This project makes the AI read and understand your collected documents first, then organizes them into a wiki — with cross-references between pages, automatic flagging of conflicting claims, and per-topic synthesis built in from the start, so later retrieval is fast.

See the output before installing — the example corpus shipped in this repo is published as a browsable GitHub Wiki (no clone needed). It's a rendered static snapshot of the wiki/ folder; the interactive graph below runs locally.

The interactive knowledge graph (graph/graph.html) — every page a node, every wikilink an edge, color-coded by auto-detected cluster, with a live physics layout and filter/search built in. Shown here on a larger private deployment (~2,300 nodes) to convey how it scales; this repo ships a deliberately small example corpus you can browse the exact same way. (Interface shown in the optional Korean WIKI_LANG=ko mode.)

The concept

This project is one question worked into a running system: how far can you trust knowledge an AI wrote? Two ideas organize everything below.

1. The product is an LLM Wiki — Andrej Karpathy's three-layer pattern. The original documents you collect (Layer 1, raw/), the cross-linked wiki the agent maintains (Layer 2, wiki/), and the operating rules the agent follows (Layer 3, CLAUDE.md + .claude/) are kept strictly separate, so humans and AI don't trespass into each other's territory. As the operator you do exactly two things — feed Layer 1 and tune Layer 3; only the agent writes Layer 2. And ingesting one document doesn't just add a page: it refreshes the ~10–15 existing pages that mention the same entities and concepts, which is what makes the wiki compound instead of just piling up.

2. The factory is a newsroom running four loops. The wiki is produced by five roles modeled on a newspaper staff — and the agent that writes a page is never the one that reviews it:

Role	What it does
Reporter	gathers material and drafts source pages + entity/concept stubs
Columnist	writes the deep cross-source analyses
Copy Editor	rule-based Python checks — not an LLM at all
Desk	re-reads finished drafts with fresh eyes; the only independent qualitative judgment in the system
Editor-in-Chief	routes work and gates publication — orchestration, not evaluation
