[2026-04-07] update | Wiki recovery after Codex-assisted audit
- Spawned parallel Codex collaborators to audit on-disk state, recover a minimal canonical source set, and propose the missing page set.
- Verified the wiki had become partially ingested: index/log referenced pages and sources that did not yet exist on disk.
- Restored 8 missing raw source summaries:
- Created 14 content pages:
- Repaired SCHEMA.md so content-page rules and meta-file exceptions are explicit, and added
meta/schematags to the taxonomy. - Rebuilt index.md to match the actual on-disk page set: 14 pages.
- Note: the earlier bulk-ingestion entry reflects intended scope at the time and does not exactly match the previously materialized on-disk state; this recovery entry records the repaired truth.
[2026-04-07] create | safety-and-permissions
- Added safety-and-permissions.md to normalize a central theme already present across Codex, Hermes, and OpenClaw sources.

- Updated major pages to reflect current surface models, memory systems, permissions, and orchestration details:
[2026-04-07] create | codex-app-server
- Added codex-app-server.md because the App Server is now central enough in OpenAI’s public materials to warrant its own page.
- Updated index.md to include the new entity and bump total pages from 16 to 17.
[2026-04-07] create | harness-decision-matrix
- Added harness-decision-matrix.md to turn the current qualitative corpus into a weighted design-choice table.

[2026-04-07] create | orchestration-topologies
- Added orchestration-topologies.md to capture the emerging split between inline subagents, separate-session teams, and full swarm/factory coordination.
- Cross-linked the new concept from agent-harness-anatomy.md, automation-and-background-work.md, claude-code.md, harness-architecture-comparison.md, and new-harness-design-notes.md.

[2026-04-08] lint | wiki grooming pass
- Audited the corpus against the current schema: index coverage, source existence, tag taxonomy, outbound wikilinks, and modified-page
updateddates. - Fixed the taxonomy violation in gas-city-but-its-just-codex.md by replacing ad hoc tags with existing schema tags.
- Bumped stale
updateddates on the already edited comparison, concept, and query pages so frontmatter matches the current worktree. - Added
scripts/lint-wiki.shand documented it in SCHEMA.md so future grooming does not depend on chat memory.

[2026-04-09] update | page-count recovery note
- The content-page total is 36, not 35.
- Two separate query-page ingests landed on 2026-04-09 (web-patterns-for-non-linear-harness-interfaces.md and arxiv-under-explored-coordination-strategies.md), so the later page-bump note undercounted by one.

- Ran
scripts/lint-wiki.shand a structural audit across the content corpus. - Fixed invalid YAML frontmatter quoting in:
- Repaired inbound navigation for previously orphaned query pages by cross-linking them from:
- Hardened
scripts/lint-wiki.shto parse YAML frontmatter, so colon-bearing titles now fail fast instead of slipping past the shell-only checks. - Re-ran lint: pass, 36 content pages checked, with no orphan content pages in the follow-up structural scan.
[2026-04-09] update | staged lint polish
- Adjusted
scripts/lint-wiki.shso theupdated:check inspects staged modified content pages when a commit is in flight, rather than only unstaged worktree edits. - Limited that
updated:rule to modified tracked pages (--diff-filter=M), so newly introduced historical pages can keep their original creation/update dates. - Guarded the git-diff branch so staged-tree audits outside a git checkout do not emit misleading repo warnings.
