Can I publish my Hippocampus notes online?

Yes, the skill includes a publishing decision path that can add frontmatter to files, allowing them to be mirrored to a GitHub Pages repository.

What is the Hippocampus knowledge base?

It is a centralized system for storing all project-related documentation and assets in a structured, searchable format located at ~/.claude/hippocampus/.

Can I use Hippocampus for non-text files?

Yes, it includes a Binary Asset path that organizes images, PDFs, and media, creating automatic index files for easy reference.

What are 'phantom nodes' in this skill?

Phantom nodes are wikilink-style tags (e.g., [[topic-name]]) used to categorize and link documents across the global or project-specific tiers.

How does Hippocampus handle markdown files?

It enforces a strict rule where all markdown files must be stored in the hippocampus directory, preventing scattered documentation across project folders.

Aprendizaje y Documentación

Centralizes and organizes project documentation, patterns, and assets within a standardized global or project-specific knowledge base.

Acerca de

Hippocampus is a specialized documentation skill for Claude Code that enforces a centralized knowledge base structure, ensuring all markdown files and binary assets are stored in a predictable, tiered hierarchy. It automates the discovery of existing conventions, manages 'phantom node' wikilinks for cross-referencing, and provides a streamlined workflow for creating, editing, and even publishing documentation to GitHub Pages. By offloading documentation management to a dedicated system, it ensures long-term project clarity and prevents knowledge fragmentation across the local file system.

Características Principales

Automated Git Integration: Tracks all documentation changes and supports one-click publishing to GitHub Pages.
Binary Asset Indexing: Automatically organizes and indexes images, PDFs, and media files with markdown previews.
Smart Discovery & Search: Uses autonomous agents to locate existing patterns, ADRs, and guides before creating new content.
0 GitHub stars
Centralized Markdown Management: Enforces a strict storage policy for all documentation in global or project-specific tiers.
Phantom Node System: Implements a wikilink-style organizational structure for intuitive topic and client categorization.

Casos de Uso

Maintaining cross-project coding standards and architectural decision records (ADRs) in a global tier.
Onboarding developers by providing a searchable, centralized repository of project-specific conventions and how-to guides.
Creating a public-facing documentation site directly from Claude through automated GitHub Pages mirroring.
