The wiki output is plain markdown — a regular directory of .md files. Because it uses Obsidian-style [[wikilinks]] for internal links, you can open the wiki folder in Obsidian and get full bidirectional link navigation out of the box.
Open your wiki in Obsidian
- Open Obsidian and choose Open folder as vault.
- Select your wiki output directory (the
output path in .wiki-compiler.json).
- Open
INDEX.md to see all compiled topics with bidirectional links.
From INDEX.md you can navigate to any topic article, follow cross-references, and jump to concept articles that span multiple topics.
Use Obsidian’s Graph View (Ctrl/Cmd+G) to see the relationship between topics visually. Topics that share many sources will cluster together, making it easy to spot the most connected areas of your knowledge base.
Link style configuration
The link_style field in .wiki-compiler.json controls the format of internal links:
| Value | Format | Best for |
|---|
obsidian (default) | [[topic-name]] | Obsidian, Claude Code |
markdown | [Topic Name](topics/topic-name.md) | GitHub, standard renderers |
.wiki-compiler.json:
{
"link_style": "markdown"
}
/wiki-compile --full to regenerate all articles with the new link format.
What Obsidian shows
| File | What it contains |
|---|
INDEX.md | All topics with source counts and last-updated dates |
topics/*.md | One article per topic, with coverage indicators and source backlinks |
concepts/*.md | Cross-cutting pattern articles (generated automatically) |
schema.md | Topic list, naming conventions, and article structure definition |
/wiki-compile, the files update and Obsidian reflects the changes immediately.
