    Community Edition  v1.4.1
  ────────────────────────────────
  Domain-agnostic LLM wiki engine

Document version: v1.4.1

Engineered for solo users and enterprises alike, providing a domain-specific knowledge base that scales seamlessly while maintaining accuracy through autonomous self-optimization.

Built for individuals, small teams, and large organizations who need a knowledge base that stays accurate as documents accumulate.

Synthadoc reads your raw source documents — PDFs, spreadsheets, PPTs, web pages, images, videos, Word files, TXTs, and AI session transcripts (.jsonl) — and uses an LLM to synthesize them into a persistent, structured wiki. Cross-references are built automatically, contradictions are detected and surfaced, orphan pages are flagged, and every answer cites its sources. Outputs are stored as local Markdown files, ensuring seamless integration and autonomous management within Obsidian or any wiki-compliant ecosystem.

Who Is It For?

Synthadoc scales from a single researcher to a company-wide knowledge platform:

Team size	Typical use case
Solo / 1–2 people	Personal research wiki, freelance knowledge base, indie hacker documentation - run it free on Gemini Flash or a local Ollama model with zero ongoing cost
Small team (3–20)	Centralized internal knowledge base for startups and departments that aggregates diverse individual data sources into a unified, high-integrity wiki. The system automatically resolves contradictions and scales autonomously, ensuring organizational intelligence grows in tandem with your team
Medium / enterprise	Compliance-sensitive knowledge bases that must stay local; per-department wikis on separate ports; audit trail for every ingest and cost event; hook system for CI/CD integration; OpenTelemetry for ops dashboards

No cloud account. No vendor lock-in. The wiki is plain Markdown — open it in any editor, back it up with git, sync it with any cloud drive.

Inspiration and Vision

"The LLM should be able to maintain a wiki for you." — Andrej Karpathy, LLM Wiki gist

Most knowledge-management tools retrieve and summarize at query time. Synthadoc inverts this: it compiles knowledge at ingest time. Every new source enriches and cross-links the entire corpus, not just appends a new chunk. The wiki is the artifact — readable, editable, and browsable without any tool running.

Long-term alignment:

Direction	How Synthadoc moves there
Agent orchestration	Orchestrator dispatches parallel ingest, query, and lint sub-agents with cost guards and retry backoff
Sub-agent skills/plugins	Featuring a 3-tier lazy-load capability system, the platform allows for the injection of custom skills and hooks via a plug-and-play interface, ensuring core stability is never compromised during extension
LLM wiki vs. RAG	Pre-compiled structured know
