# Wiki Layer — Standards & Templates

## Article Frontmatter (all types)

```yaml
---
type: client | project | system | pattern
name: <slug>
display_name: <Human Readable Name>
last_compiled: YYYY-MM-DD
compiled_by: <session_id>
sources:
  - session-logs/YYYY-MM-DD-session.md
  - clients/<name>/session-logs/YYYY-MM-DD-session.md
backlinks:
  - projects/<name>
  - systems/<name>
---
```

`last_compiled` is used by `/wiki-compile` to find session logs newer than this date. Never edit manually.

## Patterns & Known Issues
<!-- Recurring ticket types, common failure modes, things that always come up -->

## Active Work
<!-- Current open projects or tickets — brief, link to CONTEXT.md or ticket# for detail -->

## History Highlights
<!-- Major incidents, big projects, key decisions — one-liners with dates -->

## Backlinks
<!-- [[projects/name]] [[systems/name]] -->
```

# <Pattern Name>

## Rule
<!-- One-sentence statement of the pattern -->

## Why
<!-- Why this rule exists — incident, constraint, strong preference -->

## How to Apply
<!-- When and where this applies; edge cases -->

## Examples
<!-- Session log references where this played out -->

## Naming Conventions

- Slugs: lowercase, hyphens, no spaces (`az-computer-guru`, `guru-rmm`, `cascades`)
- System slugs match hostname exactly (`neptune`, `jupiter`, `pluto`)
- Pattern slugs describe the rule (`no-mock-db-tests`, `labor-not-taxable`)

## Linking Convention

Use `[[slug]]` for cross-references within wiki. Full relative path in frontmatter `backlinks` field.

## What the LLM Should NOT Put in Wiki Articles

- Credentials or passwords (vault paths only)
- Full session log transcripts (summaries and highlights only)
- Speculative or uncertain facts (mark with `[unverified]` if uncertain)
- Real-time state (IPs are OK, but current ticket status belongs in coord API)
