Bloom Vault

Overview

Inspired by Karpathy's LLM wiki pattern: raw sources stay separate from synthesized concepts. Claude ingests docs and notes, extracts ideas, links related pages, and surfaces open questions. Humans control what enters; the agent owns the rest.

Highlights

• Inbox → source notes → wiki → archive, with agents maintaining the graph
• 2-source rule: a theme needs two independent sources before it becomes a concept page
• Mermaid graphs, health audits, and an append-only ops log for provenance
