How to use Karpathy LLM Wiki in your AI agent

Install and use the Karpathy LLM Wiki skill in Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Gemini CLI, OpenCode, and Windsurf — with sample prompts.

What you'll get

This skill turns your AI assistant into a wiki manager that reads your sources — articles, papers, notes, transcripts — and builds a structured, cross-referenced knowledge base for you. Unlike traditional search or RAG, it compiles knowledge once and keeps it current, so you don't re-derive the same insights every time. Perfect for anyone building up expertise in a domain over time.

Step 1 — Get the skill source URL

The Karpathy LLM Wiki skill lives at:

Step 2 — Add it to your AI agent

Copy one of these prompts and paste it into your AI tool. The agent will fetch and install the skill for you.

Step 3 — Try these prompts

Once the skill is installed, ask your AI things like:

  • Researching a topic over weeks or months and want to compound your learning instead of re-reading
  • Track information from multiple sources and spot where they agree or contradict
  • Building expertise in a domain and want a searchable, structured knowledge base that grows with you
  • You want your AI to remember what you've already processed and build on it, not start from scratch each time

What this skill does

  • Reads your sources and creates structured markdown wiki pages with summaries, key facts, and cross-references
  • Updates existing pages when new sources add information, and flags contradictions between sources
  • Answers questions by synthesizing across your wiki pages with inline citations
  • Runs health checks to find contradictions, orphaned pages, missing cross-references, and gaps in your knowledge base
  • Maintains a master index and operation log so you always know what's in your wiki and how it evolved
