Knowledge Graph Artifacts
This directory ships the pre-built ctx LLM-wiki and knowledge graph.
Current snapshot:
- 102,720 graph nodes
- 2,911,575 graph edges
- 52 Louvain communities
- 91,450 skill entity pages with hydrated installable bodies
- 467 agent pages
- 10,787 MCP server pages
- 16 harness pages
- 89,465 hydrated
SKILL.mdbodies - 28,612 long skill bodies converted through the micro-skill gate
The runtime recommendation paths use this graph in two ways:
- Development recommendations return skills, agents, and MCP servers only.
- Custom/API/local model onboarding recommends harnesses using the higher harness fit floor in
src/config.json.

Preview HTML files are generated from the shipped graphify-out/graph.json
and embed the graph export ID in <meta name="ctx-graph-export-id">. Static
PNG snapshots are intentionally not shipped because they can drift from the
current tarball without an executable freshness check.
Runtime vs Full Wiki
ctx-init --graph installs wiki-graph-runtime.tar.gz by default. That is the
right path for recommendations and first-time installs because it avoids
expanding hundreds of thousands of markdown files while still shipping the
harness pages needed by ctx-harness-install --dry-run. Use
ctx-init --graph --graph-install-mode full or manual full extraction when you
want local wiki browsing, Obsidian, or the converted skill body tree.

SKILL.md.original backups, transient .lock files, and .ctx/ queue state
are not shipped. Local micro-skill conversion may keep .original files for
traceability, but the packaged tarball excludes them so users do not ingest raw
long bodies after conversion.
Extract
Default runtime install:
ctx-init --graph
Full wiki extraction:
mkdir -p ~/.claude/skill-wiki
tar xzf graph/wiki-graph.tar.gz -C ~/.claude/skill-wiki/
On Windows PowerShell, use the built-in tar.exe without --force-local:
New-Item -ItemType Directory -Force "$env:USERPROFILE\.claude\skill-wiki"
tar -xzf graph\wiki-graph.tar.gz -C "$env:USERPROFILE\.claude\skill-wiki"
With Git Bash or MSYS tar, use --force-local only when the -C target is a
drive-letter path:
tar --force-local xzf graph/wiki-graph.tar.gz -C C:/Users/<you>/.claude/skill-wiki/
Validate
python src/validate_graph_artifacts.py --deep
python src/update_repo_stats.py --check
For release-count validation, pin the exact snapshot numbers:
python src/validate_graph_artifacts.py --deep \
--expected-nodes 102720 \
--expected-edges 2911575 \
--expected-semantic-edges 1683163 \
--expected-harness-nodes 16 \
--expected-skill-pages 91450 \
--expected-agent-pages 467 \
--expected-mcp-pages 10787 \
--expected-harness-pages 16
Manual sanity checks:
tar -tzf graph/wiki-graph.tar.gz | grep 'graphify-out/graph.json'
tar -tzf graph/wiki-graph.tar.gz | grep 'external-catalogs/.*/catalog.json'
tar -tzf graph/wiki-graph.tar.gz | grep 'SKILL.md.original' && exit 1 || true
tar -tzf graph/wiki-graph.tar.gz | grep '\.lock$' && exit 1 || true
tar -tzf graph/wiki-graph.tar.gz | grep '^\./\.ctx/' && exit 1 || true
Windows PowerShell equivalent for the exclusion checks:
tar -tzf graph/wiki-graph.tar.gz | Select-String 'SKILL.md.original'
tar -tzf graph/wiki-graph.tar.gz | Select-String '\.lock$'
tar -tzf graph/wiki-graph.tar.gz | Select-String '^\./\.ctx/'
The PowerShell commands should print nothing.
Rebuild
After adding or updating skills, agents, MCP servers, or harnesses:
ctx-wiki-worker --wiki ~/.claude/skill-wiki --limit 1
ctx-scan-repo --repo . --recommend
The worker path is the fast local update path. It validates the queued entity
page, updates the wiki index, and attempts incremental ANN attach into
graphify-out/entity-overlays.jsonl when the semantic vector index exists. It
also queues the normal incremental graph export job, so a full rebuild remains
the reconciliation path for release artifacts.
If the worker reports that incremental attach was skipped because no vector index exists, build the exact portable index:
ctx-wiki-graphify \
--wiki-dir ~/.claude/skill-wiki \
--incremental \
--graph-only \
--semantic-vector-index numpy-flat
Then drain pending queue work again:
ctx-wiki-worker --wiki ~/.claude/skill-wiki
Before promoting an ANN backend or changed thresholds, run the shadow gate:
ctx-incremental-shadow \
--index-dir ~/.claude/skill-wiki/.embedding-cache/graph/vector-index \
--graph ~/.claude/skill-wiki/graphify-out/graph.json \
--sample-size 100 \
--min-overlap 0.85
It reports precision/recall, top-k agreement, score deltas, and bad examples; the release gate fails when recall at the largest requested top-k is below the overlap floor.
For release artifact rebuilds:
python scripts/graph_artifact_guard.py park
ctx-wiki-graphify
python src/validate_graph_artifacts.py --deep
python src/update_repo_stats.py --check
park sets Git's local skip-worktree bit for the heavyweight generated
archives: graph/wiki-graph.tar.gz, graph/wiki-graph-runtime.tar.gz, and
the compressed skill index. Keep them parked while graph/wiki generation,
validation, dashboard smoke, and stats checks are still in progress. This
prevents background Git integrations from repeatedly staging hundreds of
megabytes through the Git LFS clean filter. When the release candidate is final,
unpark and stage the artifacts exactly once:
python scripts/graph_artifact_guard.py unpark
git add graph/wiki-graph.tar.gz graph/wiki-graph-runtime.tar.gz graph/*.json.gz
python scripts/graph_artifact_guard.py prune
If a local Git integration gets interrupted while artifacts are dirty,
python scripts/graph_artifact_guard.py prune removes unreachable local Git
objects and prunable local LFS cache entries. It does not delete tracked graph
files, rewrite history, or change the remote LFS store.
For a bulk skill refresh, update the existing shipped tarball through the release refresh path:
python src/import_skills_sh_catalog.py \
--from-catalog <skill-catalog.json.gz> \
--catalog-out <skill-catalog.json.gz> \
--wiki-tar graph/wiki-graph.tar.gz \
--update-wiki-tar
For a full local wiki repack, write the tarball to the sibling staged path, then promote that staged candidate after validation:
cd ~/.claude/skill-wiki
tar --force-local -czf /path/to/ctx/graph/wiki-graph.tar.gz.staged \
--exclude='.trash' \
--exclude='__pycache__' \
--exclude='./raw' \
--exclude='./.embedding-cache' \
--exclude='./.ingest-checkpoint' \
--exclude='./.enrich-checkpoint' \
--exclude='./.ctx' \
--exclude='./graphify-out/graph.pickle' \
--exclude='*.original' \
--exclude='*.lock' \
.
cd /path/to/ctx
python -c "from pathlib import Path; from ctx.core.wiki.artifact_promotion import promote_staged_artifact; from import_skills_sh_catalog import _validate_wiki_tarball_candidate; promote_staged_artifact(Path('graph/wiki-graph.tar.gz.staged'), Path('graph/wiki-graph.tar.gz'), validate=_validate_wiki_tarball_candidate)"
The repack command above is for Git Bash/MSYS. In Linux/macOS shells omit
--force-local; in PowerShell use tar -czf without --force-local.
Both flows validate candidates before atomic promotion. Each promoted artifact
gets a sibling *.promotion.json file with current, candidate, and last_good
hashes for review or rollback. The graph, delta, communities, report, and
export manifest are shipped together and carry the same export ID so validation
can reject mixed or partially refreshed graph generations. Raw .original
backups, transient .lock files, and .ctx/ queue state must not appear in
the shipped tarball.
Implementation Notes
The graph is built by ctx.core.wiki.wiki_graphify and the ctx-wiki-graphify
console script. Edges blend semantic similarity, explicit tag overlap,
slug-token overlap, source overlap, direct links, quality, usage, type affinity,
and graph-structure signals where available. The shipped default
graph.min_edge_weight is 0.03, chosen from artifact calibration because it
keeps the current topology intact while recording the real shipped floor.
nashsu/llm_wiki was reviewed for design ideas around persistent wiki
contracts, queues, retrieval, and graph maintenance. ctx does not vendor that
code in this MIT repository.
