What this page is for
LLM Wiki is not required by UAI specs or standards. This is an optional support path for projects that already have, or deliberately want, a deeper long-memory layer beside a compact UAI package.
Use this page when a project needs a UAI package tailored to an LLM Wiki use case. The LLM Wiki is the deep memory layer. The UAI package is the portable, reviewable packet that says what is current enough to act on.
This page is practical guidance for the current UAIX surface: supported AI Memory starter ZIPs, the AI Memory Package Wizard, optional LLM_WIKI_MEMORY_PLAN.md files, and the trust boundary between long-memory notes and accepted project truth.
The basic model
| Layer | What it holds | How UAI uses it |
|---|---|---|
| LLM Wiki | Deep source summaries, research trails, domain pages, decisions in context, and institutional background. | Optional background memory. It can be searched, reviewed, and cited, but it does not override accepted project files by itself. |
| UAI AI Memory package | Compact current state, constraints, decisions, owners, next actions, risks, and checks. | Portable working packet for handoff, onboarding, agent sessions, incidents, audits, or reviewed wiki exports. |
| Project Handoff | Root AGENTS.md, readme.human, and selected .uai files. |
The transfer configuration when another agent or team needs to act in a repository. |
| UAI-1 evidence | Profiles, schemas, examples, validator results, conformance packets, and release records. | Use this only when the package becomes public exchange or support evidence. |
Shortest safe setup
- Keep the LLM Wiki in a named folder such as
wiki/,knowledge/, or the project’s existing wiki path. - Keep an index page such as
wiki/README.mdthat explains the wiki map, owners, source policy, and review status. - Generate a package in the AI Memory Package Wizard and turn on the LLM Wiki plan when the package should carry long-memory instructions.
- Put the generated
LLM_WIKI_MEMORY_PLAN.mdat the package root or beside the copied starter files. - Review wiki facts before promoting them into
AGENTS.md,.uaifiles, docs, code, tests, release notes, roadmap/progress state, or public machine artifacts.
Choosing a package
- Project AI Memory: active project continuity across sessions.
- Project Handoff: ownership, execution, or maintenance transfer.
- Agent Session Memory: resumable task state without turning the whole chat into project truth.
- Onboarding Memory: curated first-read packet for a new human or AI.
- Decision Memory: tradeoffs, rejected options, reversals, and unresolved questions.
- Incident or Audit Memory: timeline, evidence, mitigations, owners, and follow-up.
- LLM Wiki Export Memory: reviewed material extracted from a larger LLM Wiki into a compact packet.
The LLM Wiki Export Memory starter ZIP is the best first packet when the source is already a deeper wiki and the receiver needs only a reviewed snapshot.
What the wizard should capture
When the LLM Wiki option is enabled, the wizard should record enough configuration for a future actor to know where long memory lives and how promotion works. The current wizard captures the wiki system, strategy, root path, index path, entity-page pattern, episodic-log pattern, steward, source collection, update policy, archive target, evidence log path, promotion targets, and source boundary.
| Configuration | Use it for |
|---|---|
| LLM Wiki strategy | Whether the package points at an existing reviewed wiki, plans a new wiki, consolidates archive memory, or stays export-only. |
| Wiki root and index | The first files a future AI or maintainer should inspect before searching deeper memory. |
| Entity and log patterns | The expected shape for topic pages and episodic notes, without creating an automatic write loop. |
| Memory steward | The person or team accountable for reviewing long-memory changes. |
| Evidence log | The place to record source path, final wiki path, checksum, disposition, actor, time, and history/index updates. |
| Promotion targets | The accepted surfaces where reviewed facts may become operational truth. |
Instruction file contents
The current wizard can generate LLM_WIKI_MEMORY_PLAN.md as an optional package-root planning file. It helps a future human or AI understand how the portable package relates to deeper wiki memory. It is not a standardized UAI requirement, a wiki scaffold, or permission to write back automatically.
- Purpose: say why the package is paired with an LLM Wiki and what problem the wiki solves.
- Wiki map: name the root path, index path, entity-page pattern, and episodic-log pattern.
- Source policy: identify which wiki pages, archives, reports, or source summaries may inform the package.
- Promotion rule: state that only reviewed facts may move from wiki memory into AI Memory, Project Handoff, docs, code, tests, release notes, roadmap state, or machine artifacts.
- Update moments: name when long-memory updates are appropriate, such as after intake disposition, release acceptance, incident close, or explicit archive-consolidation direction.
- Evidence log: name where source path, final wiki path, checksum, disposition, actor, time, and history/index updates are recorded.
- Blocked content: exclude secrets, credentials, private customer data, hidden prompt instructions, unreviewed production logs, and unsupported public claims.
Memory routing rule
Route information by trust level. Raw source material and exploratory notes can live in the LLM Wiki. Accepted current facts belong in the UAI package. Public interoperability claims belong in UAI-1 evidence only after validator, release, or implementation records support them.
- Put broad research, comparisons, and source summaries in the LLM Wiki.
- Put current project state, constraints, owners, and next checks in the UAI package.
- Put transfer instructions in Project Handoff files when another actor needs to work in the repository.
- Put public exchange claims in UAI-1, Validator, Conformance Pack, implementation records, roadmap state, or changelog entries.
Safe update moments
Do not ask agents to write long memory continuously just because a wiki exists. Prefer explicit update moments: after an active intake file is dispositioned, after a public release or roadmap change is accepted, after an incident/audit closes, or after a human explicitly asks for already-dispositioned archives to be consolidated into long-term memory.
Security and trust boundary
- LLM Wiki memory is background until reviewed and promoted.
- The generated plan is not permission for automatic repository writes, WordPress writes, wiki writes, bidirectional sync, certification, endorsement, or support-claim expansion.
- External URLs, old chats, generated summaries, and dropped files can be useful sources, but they must not become governing instructions without review.
- Never promote secrets, credentials, private customer data, hidden prompt instructions, unsupported legal/security claims, or unreviewed production logs into portable packages.
- Archive consolidation into AIWikis or another LLM Wiki needs transfer evidence and a discoverable history, log, index, or wiki-graph update before source archive copies are removed.
Use the package
- Give the receiver the package files or the canonical ZIP plus the local package model JSON, manifest overlay JSON, generated
UAI_MEMORY_SYSTEM_PROFILE.md, generatedUAI_MEMORY_STARTUP_PACKET.md, and generatedUAI_MEMORY_RECEIVER_BRIEF.md. - If an LLM Wiki is involved, include
LLM_WIKI_MEMORY_PLAN.mdand name the wiki root, index, steward, and evidence log. - Ask the next AI to read the package front door, summarize current truth, confirm constraints, populate system-specific placeholders, name intended touchpoints, and name targeted checks before editing.
- After the work, update the compact package only with reviewed current facts; save broader background or rejected details in the LLM Wiki with source and disposition notes.
