What a good page has
- A clear title and readable text. Not a raw dump of the source, but a tidy write-up a person would be happy to read.
- A place in the structure. Pages live in folders, organised the way the brain’s template lays out, so related things sit together.
- Links to related pages. A meeting page links to the people who attended; a project links to its decisions. Following links is often faster than searching.
- Citations. At the bottom of a page is a note of where its information came from and when. This is what lets you, and your agents, trust what a page says: you can always trace it back. When the source lives somewhere, the citation carries two links: the copy that was read, kept unchanged in Sources, and the live document.
Nothing is lost to an edit
Every page keeps its full version history. When a page changes, whether you edit it or an agent files an update into it, the previous version is kept. You can look back at what a page said before, and see how your knowledge evolved. Editing is safe: you can never quietly overwrite something and lose it.Why structure makes recall better
A well-structured brain is easier to recall from, for you and for your agents. Citations mean answers come with sources. Links mean related knowledge is one hop away. Sensible folders mean things are where you would look. The skills that do the filing exist precisely to keep this structure consistent, so recall stays good as a brain grows.Try it
- Open a filed page and read it top to bottom, ending on its citation.
- Follow one of its links to a related page.
- Open the page’s version history and look at an earlier version.
