wiki-explore

Original：🇺🇸 English
Translated

Discover cross-domain connections across the wiki. Use when the user wants to find analogies, tensions, or surprising links between concepts from different fields, says "explore", "find connections", "what connects", or wants to discover patterns across their wiki, second brain, or knowledge base.

Personal Wiki — Explore

Discover cross-domain connections, analogies, and tensions across the wiki.

How It Works

1. Read the full inventory

Read 
wiki/index.md
to get the complete list of all wiki pages across all categories (Sources, Entities, Concepts, Synthesis).

2. Read concept and entity pages

Read all pages in 
wiki/concepts/
and 
wiki/entities/
. If the wiki is very large (100+ pages), read a representative sample that covers the broadest range of domains and tags.

3. Analyze for connections

Scan the content for three types of cross-domain connections:
Analogies Same pattern appearing in different domains. Look for:
  • Structural similarities (e.g. feedback loops in biology AND economics)
  • Shared mechanisms (e.g. network effects in social media AND epidemiology)
  • Parallel frameworks (e.g. evolution in biology AND market competition)
Tensions Where different domains or sources disagree on the same underlying question. Look for:
  • Contradictory claims about similar phenomena across fields
  • Different assumptions that lead to conflicting conclusions
  • Unresolved debates where different disciplines take opposing sides
Connection Map Surprising links between concepts that aren't currently wikilinked. Look for:
  • Concepts from different domains that share terminology or underlying principles
  • Entities that bridge multiple fields but aren't linked across those pages
  • Ideas that appear in different contexts but haven't been connected

Output Format

Present findings in chat — do not save to the wiki.
Group by connection type:

Analogies

For each analogy found:
  • The two (or more) concepts/domains involved
  • Brief explanation of the structural similarity
  • Which wiki pages contain the relevant information: 
    [[Page A]]
    , 
    [[Page B]]

Tensions

For each tension found:
  • The conflicting claims or assumptions
  • Which domains/sources take which side
  • The wiki pages involved: 
    [[Page A]]
    , 
    [[Page B]]

Unexpected Links

For each surprising connection:
  • What the connection is
  • Why it's non-obvious
  • The wiki pages that could be linked: 
    [[Page A]]
    ↔ 
    [[Page B]]
When useful, include a Mermaid diagram showing the connection map:

  C[Concept C] -->|tension| D[Concept D]
  A -.->|unexpected| C

Constraints

  • Read-only. Do not create, modify, or delete any wiki pages.
  • No web search. Work only with existing wiki content.
  • Chat only. Present findings in the conversation, not as saved files.
