An open-source implementation of Andrej Karpathy's LLM Wiki concept: a self-maintaining personal knowledge base where an LLM (connected via MCP, e.g. Claude) autonomously synthesizes uploaded documents, notes, and web clippings into cross-linked wiki pages. It ships as a Next.js web app, Python API, MCP server, CLI, and Chrome extension for clipping sources.

Use cases

• build a personal wikipedia from my reading that maintains itself
• have Claude write and update my knowledge base from documents I upload
• turn PDFs, notes, and web clippings into a cross-linked wiki
• give my LLM a persistent context layer of my own mental models
• clip webpages and PDFs with highlights and have AI synthesize them
• build an institutional knowledge base maintained by AI
• visualize how concepts in my notes relate as a graph

When to choose

• you want an AI-maintained knowledge base rather than manually curated notes
• you already use Claude or another MCP-compatible app and want it to manage your wiki
• you want self-hosted control over your personal knowledge layer
• you value source preservation with highlights and citations back to originals

When to avoid

• you want a traditional hand-edited wiki like MediaWiki or Obsidian
• you don't want to pay for or connect an LLM API/MCP client
• you need offline-only operation without any LLM involvement
• you need a lightweight note-taking app rather than an autonomous synthesis pipeline
