# Configuration

Wiki configuration lives in `.llm-wiki/config.json`.

## Modes

### Personal

The personal vault lives at `~/.llm-wiki/` (or `$WIKI_HOME`) and is always available as a fallback when no project wiki exists. It accumulates knowledge across all your sessions.

- Extra folders: `wiki/journal/`, `wiki/goals/`
- Track: learning, books, health, reflections

### Company

- Extra folders: `wiki/changes/`, `wiki/decisions/`
- Track: competitors, market, strategy
- Frontmatter: `confidence: high | medium | low`

## Settings

| Setting                    | Default | Description                        |
| -------------------------- | ------- | ---------------------------------- |
| `max_sources_per_discover` | 8       | Sources fetched per discovery run  |

| `batch_ingest_size`        | 3       | Sources processed per ingest batch |

## Environment Variables

| Variable                      | Default     | Description                                     |
| ----------------------------- | ----------- | ----------------------------------------------- |
| `WIKI_HOME`                   | `~/.llm-wiki` | Override the personal wiki vault location     |
| `WIKI_MARKITDOWN_TIMEOUT_MS` | 180000      | Timeout (ms) for MarkItDown PDF/text extraction |

## Vault Resolution

The vault root is resolved in this priority order:

1. **Project vault**: walk up from current directory looking for `.llm-wiki/`
2. **Personal vault**: fall back to `$WIKI_HOME` or `~/.llm-wiki/`

This means when you're in a project with its own `.llm-wiki/`, that project wiki is active. When you're outside any project wiki, your personal `~/.llm-wiki/` takes over automatically.
