I was maintaining a wiki for my company's context through a hacky project I had made, but I wanted to turn that into something that's a lot more polished and easier to use.
I wanted something where:
-
I could use it for myself or I could share it with my teammates.
-
I could upload sources, and the wiki gets created and updated automatically.
-
It is extremely agent-native, because my primary mechanism of interaction would be through my CC or Codex.
So I built Almanac. It takes whatever sources you upload, organizes them, and creates a wiki on top of it. Every time you upload new sources, it reorganizes, restructures, and updates the wiki.
The agent interacts with the wiki through a CLI. Similar to Vercel, you can link a folder locally to a wiki, and your agent will then automatically have context of it.
I also wanted to make it easy to develop on this platform. I think wikis are a much better way of giving your agent access to quality information compared to RAG. So there is also a Python SDK as well as an MCP that you can use to build on top of it.
The project is still early, and I would love any feedback or feature requests that you have.
Btw we've also made an open-source version of Almanac for code called CodeAlmanac([https://github.com/AlmanacCode/codealmanac](https://github.com/AlmanacCode/codealmanac))
