Wiki Lint

Audit, do not edit. Return findings the maintainer (human or agent) can triage.

Inputs

• An operation issue with operationType: "lint".
• The operation issue's target wikiId, spaceSlug, and space root. Lint only that space unless the issue explicitly says this is a multi-space sweep.

Workflow

1. Walk the target space's wiki/index.md and wiki tree with wikisearch and wikiread_page, always passing the operation issue's wikiId and spaceSlug. Build a mental map of: pages that exist, pages referenced from index.md, pages referenced from other pages, and raw sources.
2. Check for the seven recurring issues, in this order:
3. Contradictions — two pages making incompatible claims about the same entity, decision, or status. Flag both pages, name the conflicting claims, and quote evidence.
4. Stale claims — a page asserts X, but a newer source under raw/ has superseded it. Flag the older page; never overwrite.
5. Orphan pages — a wiki/ page is not linked from index.md and not referenced from any other wiki page. Either it should be linked, removed, or merged.
6. Concept gaps — a term appears on three or more pages but has no dedicated wiki/concepts/.md. Recommend creating one.
7. Broken [[wiki-links]] — a link target file does not exist.
8. Weak provenance — a non-trivial claim is uncited or cites only the wiki itself in a circle. The original source ref should be findable.
9. Index / log drift — pages exist that are not in index.md, or index.md lists pages that no longer exist. Recent operations in wiki/log.md that did not produce a corresponding page change.
10. Return a triage list, grouped by severity:

Each item has: file path, evidence (a 1–2 line quote), suggested fix, and the operation that should follow up (ingest, paperclip-distill, index-refresh, manual review).

• critical: contradictions, broken links to active pages, fabricated citations.
• medium: stale claims, weak provenance, large concept gaps.
• low: orphans, log drift, small index gaps.

1. Do not write to wiki/. Lint is read-only by design — the maintainer or the routine that follows decides which findings to act on.
2. Append a log entry describing the run:

## [YYYY-MM-DD] lint | <N findings, M critical>
   - operation issue: <issue identifier>
   - critical: <count>
   - medium: <count>
   - low: <count>

Voice

• Lead with the count by severity.
• Each finding is one bullet. Resist commentary.
• When in doubt about severity, say so and surface it as medium with a "verify" note.

Verification

Before closing the operation issue:

• [ ] Findings are grouped by severity with file paths, evidence, and suggested fix per item.
• [ ] No files under raw/ were modified. No files under wiki/ were modified except wiki/log.md.
• [ ] If the run found nothing, the issue is closed with "no findings" and the log entry still exists so future audits can see this run happened.

Tools

wikisearch, wikireadpage, wikilistsources, wikireadsource, wikiwrite_page (only wiki/log.md). Always include the operation issue's wikiId and spaceSlug.
