What it does
Ingest Codex CLI conversation/session history into Obsidian as distilled knowledge. Use for importing or mining ~/.codex sessions, rollout files, indexes, or transcript logs; use wiki-agent for targeted topic-only recall.
Codex History Ingest, Conversation Mining
You are extracting knowledge from the user's past Codex sessions and distilling it into the Obsidian wiki. Session logs are rich but noisy: focus on durable knowledge, not operational telemetry.
This skill can be invoked directly or via the wiki-history-ingest router (/wiki-history-ingest codex).
Before You Start
Writing profile: Before drafting or rewriting natural-language Markdown, read and apply the Writing Profile Resolution section in llm-wiki/SKILL.md. Framework schema, provenance, safety, and operation-specific requirements take precedence.
WRITING.md preferences apply only to newly drafted or rewritten natural-language Markdown; preserve source content and structured records.
- Resolve config, follow the Config Resolution Protocol in
llm-wiki/SKILL.md(inline@nameoverride → walk up CWD for.env→ global config → prompt setup). This givesOBSIDIAN_VAULT_PATHandCODEX_HISTORY_PATH(defaults to~/.codex) - Read
.manifest.jsonat the vault root to check what has already been ingested - Read
index.mdat the vault root to understand what the wiki already contains
Ingest Modes
Append Mode (default)
Check .manifest.json for each source file. Only process:
- Files not in the manifest (new session rollouts, new index files)
- Files whose modification time is newer than
ingested_atin the manifest
Use this mode for regular syncs.
Full Mode
Process everything regardless of manifest. Use after wiki-rebuild or if the user explicitly asks for a full re-ingest.
Codex Data Layout
Codex stores local artifacts under ~/.codex/.
