# Step 1: Inventory All Hidden Folders (+4)

## Step 1: Inventory All Hidden Folders


List all hidden directories at the repository root.

```bash
# List all hidden directories (excluding .git)
find . -maxdepth 1 -type d -name ".*" ! -name ".git" | sort

# With sizes
du -sh .*/ 2>/dev/null | grep -v "^0" | sort -hr

# Include symlinks
find . -maxdepth 1 \( -type d -o -type l \) -name ".*" ! -name ".git" | sort
```

## Step 2: Check Git Tracking Status


Determine which hidden folders are tracked, ignored, or untracked.

```bash
# Check if folder is tracked
git ls-files --error-unmatch .folder/ 2>/dev/null && echo "TRACKED" || echo "NOT TRACKED"

# Check if folder is ignored
git check-ignore -v .folder/ 2>/dev/null && echo "IGNORED" || echo "NOT IGNORED"

# List all tracked hidden files
git ls-files | grep "^\." | cut -d'/' -f1 | sort -u

# List all gitignored hidden folders
git status --porcelain --ignored | grep "^!!" | grep "^\./\." | cut -d'/' -f2 | sort -u
```

## Step 3: Analyze Content Overlap


Check for duplicate or overlapping content between hidden folders.

```bash
# Compare agent configurations
diff -rq .agent-os/agents/ .Codex/agents/ 2>/dev/null

# Find duplicate files by name
find .agent-os .ai .Codex -name "*.md" -type f 2>/dev/null | xargs -I {} basename {} | sort | uniq -d

# Find duplicate files by content (MD5)

*See sub-skills for full details.*

## Step 4: Identify Authoritative Source


Determine which folder should be the single source of truth.

**Criteria for Authoritative Source:**
1. **Git tracking** - Tracked folders are more likely authoritative
2. **Recency** - Check last modification dates
3. **Completeness** - More complete configuration wins
4. **Active use** - Referenced in CI/CD, scripts, documentation
5. **Tool requirements** - Some tools require specific folder names

```bash

*See sub-skills for full details.*

## Step 5: Plan Consolidation


Create a migration plan based on analysis.

**Migration Checklist:**
- [ ] Identify target folder structure
- [ ] List files to migrate
- [ ] Identify files to delete
- [ ] Update references in code/scripts
- [ ] Update .gitignore
- [ ] Test after migration

llm-wiki-audit-feedback-loop

5
from vamseeachanta/workspace-hub

Durable feedback loop for correcting llm-wiki pages without losing the correction to chat history. Use when (1) a human notices a wiki page is wrong, outdated, or contradicts a source, (2) processing the `audit/` inbox of a domain wiki, (3) reviewing what feedback has been resolved vs deferred, (4) needing to leave a comment on a specific text range that survives line- number drift. Implements the anchored-text audit file pattern from lewislulu/llm-wiki-skill, adapted for workspace-hub's domain-wiki layout under /mnt/local-analysis/llm-wiki/wikis/<domain>/. Extends the 5-op model (compile/ingest/query/lint) from research/llm-wiki with the missing `audit` op. Never silently delete feedback — rejected audits stay archived with rejection rationale.
