Wenshan.skill / 文山.skill

English · 简体中文

Turn a Markdown writing collection into a personal knowledge mountain range that always leads back to the source.

Wenshan reviews authorship and document quality, resolves draft/final versions, and then identifies recurring scenes, industries, roles, and practices as mountains. Every visible mountain must pass an evidence gate; every count, evidence point, and synthesized answer can be traced to the original article.

It is not a folder chart or an embedding cluster map. A mountain name is a recurring concrete problem space, its article count is accumulated writing volume, and its subtitle is the author's current answer in that area.

Beta 1.0 (1.0.0-beta.1) is a public field test. The analysis contract and renderer are usable; schemas and host-specific adapters may still change before a stable release.

First run

Send this to your Agent and replace the path and nickname:

Use $knowledge-peak-map to analyze:
/absolute/path/to/my-writing

Author nickname: Pakco
Interface language: English
Goal: Generate a Wenshan map

If your host does not use $skill-name syntax, say: “Use the knowledge-peak-map Skill to analyze this directory.”

Wenshan needs only:

1. an author nickname;
2. a user-selected Markdown or Obsidian writing directory;
3. an interface language: English or Chinese.

It does not scan the whole vault by default, edit source articles, or upload writing to a remote service.

No Markdown yet?

Use huashu-md-html to convert PDF, DOCX, PPTX, XLSX, HTML, web pages, EPUB, images, audio, or ZIP archives into clean Markdown first:

npx skills add alchaincyf/huashu-md-html --skill huashu-md-html -g

Then ask your Agent:

Use $huashu-md-html to convert these source files into a clean Markdown collection.
After I review the converted files, use $knowledge-peak-map to generate Wenshan.

The two Skills remain separate on purpose: huashu-md-html prepares the corpus; Wenshan reviews evidence, resolves versions, audits mountain boundaries, and renders the map.

What you receive

writing/
└── Cognitive Map/
    └── Agent Atlas/
        ├── cards/                 # auditable semantic card per article

        └── Wenshan.html           # zoomable, clickable, shareable map

The generated HTML supports:

• English and Chinese interface switching while preserving original article titles;
• wheel and keyboard zoom plus pointer panning;
• peak focus and a reverse-chronological source-article drawer;
• daylight parchment and night atlas themes;
• 3:4 share-image export;
• links back to Markdown or Obsidian source notes.

When Wenshan is useful

• You have many articles but cannot clearly name what you keep returning to.
• Drafts, finals, and rewrites are mixed together, so ordinary counts are inflated.
• You do not want folders, tags, word frequency, or vector similarity to decide your knowledge structure.
• You want a personal writing asset that is explainable, auditable, and visually shareable.

Wenshan can analyze public-account articles, essays, research notes, project retrospectives, decision records, reading notes, and portfolios. Obsidian is a recommended container, not a requirement; an ordinary Markdown directory is enough.

How Wenshan decides that a mountain exists

Wenshan uses Evidence-Gated Longitudinal Framework Analysis (EGLFA). EGLFA is a Wenshan-defined engineering specification that combines established qualitative research practices; it is not the established name of a published research method.

    A["Select the author's own writing"] --> B["Exclude templates, prompts, references, and fragments"]
    B --> C["Resolve draft / final / rewrite versions"]

Core rules:

• one version-resolved canonical article is one independent analysis unit;
• one article adds altitude to only one primary mountain;
• a main mountain is a noun phrase strongly anchored to a scene, industry, role, or practice;
• main mountains should be MECE on one declared classification axis;
• a contained medium, format, tool, or method becomes a subpeak, not a peer mountain;
• a mountain requires at least three independent articles; no evidence means no mountain;
• mountain proximity comes from explicit semantic review, not embedding distance;
• article count represents accumulated writing volume, not expertise, authority, or correctness.

How to read the map

Map element	Meaning
Mountain name	A recurring concrete problem space, such as AI Tools, Product Management, or CNC
16 pieces	16 independent canonical articles; accumulated volume, not a capability score
Solid triangle	Peak summit and interaction target
Subtitle	The Agent's synthesis of the author's current answer in this area
Peripheral evidence labels	Recurring scenes or practices supported by articles inside the mountain
Article dots	Real source articles that open titles, dates, summaries, and original paths
Mountain proximity	Reviewed semantic relations, shared practices, or longitudinal transitions
Contours and ridges	One continuous mountain range, not a set of disconnected rings
Bottom-right timestamp	Analysis and render time

---

How it differs from common approaches

Approach	What it usually answers	Wenshan's treatment
Folder or tag chart	Where a file was stored	Re-reads article meaning instead of copying the directory
Word frequency or word cloud	Which words appear often	A frequent brand or term does not automatically become a mountain
Topic model	Which statistical topics may exist	Final topics must pass evidence and human-interpretability gates
Embedding clustering	Which texts are close in vector space	Mountain relations are explicit, explainable, and editable
Generic knowledge graph	Which entities are connected	Wenshan also represents accumulated writing, claim evolution, and mountain boundaries

Real classification case

A collection of 102 Markdown files was reviewed:

• 87 independent canonical articles;
• 80 articles entered the map;
• 7 remained below the evidence gate as outliers;
• 7 main mountains were produced.

Two important boundary corrections:

Incorrect peer mountain	Reviewed result
HTML Expression · 5 articles	Moved under AI Tools as a subpeak
AI Cognition · 9 articles	Moved under AI Industry as the Human–AI Boundaries subpeak

This was not an attempt to force a fixed mountain count. It prevented parent and child topics from appearing as peers. Read the compact MECE case.

Use with Obsidian

Select a directory that primarily contains the author's own drafts and finals:

writing/
├── drafts/
└── published/

Ask your Agent:

Use $knowledge-peak-map to analyze this Obsidian writing collection:
/absolute/path/to/writing

Author: Pakco
Language: English
Exclude non-author work, resolve versions, and then generate Wenshan.

Derived files are written only to Cognitive Map/Agent Atlas/ inside the selected collection. Rendering never rewrites source Markdown or semantic cards.

If reviewed cards and wenshan-terrain.json already exist, run only the deterministic renderer:

python3 knowledge-peak-map/scripts/render_territory_demo.py \
  --scope "/absolute/path/to/collection" \
  --nickname "Pakco" \
  --language en \
  --theme obsidian-atlas \
  --output-name "Wenshan"

---

Visual themes

A visual theme may change paper, lines, typography, grid, selection treatment, and controls. It must never change mountain names, counts, evidence points, reviewed relations, or terrain coordinates.

Theme	Direction	Status
survey-parchment	Parchment × surveying instrument × restrained monochrome lines	Implemented
obsidian-atlas	Black archival paper × warm gray-sepia contours × evidence stardust	Implemented
mythic-parchment	Ancient speculative cartography × hand-cut contours × restrained slope marks	Design specification
archive-engraving	Nineteenth-century geographic atlas × copper engraving × museum archive	Design specification

---

Safety and trust boundaries

• Read only the user-selected collection.
• Never scan the whole vault by default.
• Never edit source articles.
• Require no vector database or embedding service.
• Never publish private article bodies or absolute local paths.
• Only unique source paths with both include: true and canonical: true add altitude.
• Do not claim longitudinal analysis when reliable dates are unavailable.
• Send ambiguous article assignments and mountain boundaries to review.md instead of silently guessing.
