Overview

RonanCodes/llm-wiki is a minimal boilerplate combining Claude Code + Obsidian — the recommended starting point for users who “can edit a text file.” It is a Tier 4 starter template in the comprehensive report.

Key Facts

  • Form: minimal boilerplate (Claude Code + Obsidian)
  • Audience: beginners who can edit a text file, then add MCP when index.md breaks
  • Role: lowest-friction on-ramp to the pattern
  • Stack: Claude Code + Obsidian + markdown

Features

Core Architecture

  • Minimal boilerplate — just Claude Code + Obsidian + markdown, nothing else
  • No dependencies — zero npm packages, zero databases, zero APIs
  • File-based — plain markdown files

Ingest & Processing

  • Agent-driven ingest — Claude Code processes sources into wiki pages
  • Manual drop — user adds sources to raw/ folder

Quality & Governance

  • Obsidian graph view — visual navigation of wikilinks
  • Manual lint — user or agent checks page health

Integration

  • Claude Code native — designed for Claude Code skill system
  • Obsidian compatible — wiki works as Obsidian vault from day one

Data & Storage

  • Markdown files — standard wiki output
  • Git-backed — version history via git

Relationships

  • llm-wiki — (type: belongs-to) starter template
  • claude-code — (type: operates-with) the agent it wires up
  • obsidian — (type: operates-with) the viewer it pairs with
  • llm-wiki-mcp — (type: extends) the graduate step when the wiki grows

Implications

RonanCodes is essentially what this vault already is (Claude Code + Obsidian + markdown), packaged as a template. Useful as a reference for the “minimal” end of the spectrum.
