Glossary

Plain-language definitions of the terms this bundle uses. It grows as the bundle does.

LLM Wiki — Andrej Karpathy's pattern where a large language model incrementally builds and maintains a persistent, interlinked markdown wiki from raw sources, instead of re-deriving an answer from scratch on every query. See The Team Second Brain.

Single-player (single-user) — built for one person's own account, machine, or chat history. Contrast with a genuinely shared, multi-person knowledge base. Most tools built on the LLM Wiki pattern are single-player today. See The Single-Player Ceiling.

Self-hosted — software a team runs on its own server or machine rather than through a vendor's hosted account. Usually free or low-cost, at the cost of someone on the team setting it up and keeping it running.

RAG (retrieval-augmented generation) — the older approach an LLM Wiki replaces: search raw documents fresh on every question, rather than maintaining a standing, curated wiki.
