Claude History Ingest — Conversation Mining

You are extracting knowledge from the user's past Claude Code conversations and distilling it into the Obsidian wiki. Conversations are rich but messy — your job is to find the signal and compile it.

This skill can be invoked directly or via the wiki-history-ingest router (/wiki-history-ingest claude).

Before You Start

Resolve config — follow the Config Resolution Protocol in llm-wiki/SKILL.md (inline @name override → walk up CWD for .env → ~/.obsidian-wiki/config → prompt setup). This gives OBSIDIAN_VAULT_PATH and CLAUDE_HISTORY_PATH (defaults to ~/.claude)

Read .manifest.json at the vault root to check what's already been ingested

Read index.md at the vault root to know what the wiki already contains

Project Scoping — read WIKI_SKIP_PROJECTS from config (comma-separated substrings). Exclude any project directory whose name contains one of them from every step below (scan, delta, sampling, manifest writes). If the user names extra projects to skip this run, add them. Apply the exclusion once, uniformly — don't hand-write grep -v filters into individual commands, which drifts between the scan and manifest steps.

Ingest Modes

Append Mode (default)

Check .manifest.json for each source file (conversation JSONL, memory file). Only process:
