agentic-engineering-wiki

A curated, sourced wiki of agentic engineering knowledge, covering how to build LLM agents and applications that work. It is packaged as a single Open Knowledge Format (OKF) bundle. The same Markdown files serve as retrievable context for agents and as a browsable docs site.

Every note is an atomic concept with a one-sentence description, inline links to related concepts, and sources: frontmatter that traces it to the papers, books and posts it was distilled from.

Layout

wiki/                 the bundle: atomic concept notes
├── *.md              overview concepts and model fundamentals (start here)
├── prompting/        what text you write for a call
├── instructions/     standing instructions: AGENTS.md, skills, steering files
├── context/          what goes in the window, in what order, at what budget
├── knowledge/        retrieval, memory and knowledge bases outside the window
├── reasoning/        CoT, decomposition, search, voting, test-time compute
├── harness/          tools, agent-computer interfaces, observations, approvals
├── orchestration/    agent loops, planning, workflows, multi-agent
├── evaluation/       graders, eval suites, pass@k, ablations
├── optimization/     TextGrad, DSPy, harness evolution, self-adapting contexts
├── security/         prompt injection, guardrails, containment
└── development/      building software with agents: specs, ambiguity, patches
skills/agentic-wiki/  consumption skill (also exposed as .claude/skills)
docs/wiki-rules.md    authoring rules: atomicity, linking, placement

Each folder's index.md is generated by okf index from its _directory.yml and the notes' frontmatter. Don't edit it by hand.

Consuming it

From an agent. Load this repo as an Agent Plugins plugin (plugin.json + skills/ + wiki/ at the root). For example, run /plugin install on a checkout in Claude Code. The agentic-wiki skill routes a question to a folder, finds a seed note, and follows links one hop at a time. It works with or without the okf CLI.

With okf:

pip install okf-core --index-url https://xchewtoyx.github.io/okf-core/simple/ \
  --extra-index-url https://pypi.org/simple/
okf search --bundle agentic-engineering "tool inventory size"
okf context --bundle agentic-engineering --seed harness/tool-inventory --budget-chars 12000

As a site. CI deploys the site to GitHub Pages on every push to main. To build it locally:

pip install -r requirements-docs.txt
mkdocs serve

Contributing notes

Read docs/wiki-rules.md. In short:

  • One concept per note, in the folder whose routing question it answers.
  • Links stay inside wiki/.
  • No hub notes.
  • Run okf index --bundle agentic-engineering --recurse after you add or rename notes.

CI fails if the bundle doesn't validate, if any link is broken, if the generated indexes are stale, or if the site build fails.

This repo holds curated notes only. Source ingest (fleeting notes, literature notes) happens upstream and is not part of this repository.
