Obsidian plugin that runs queries over page frontmatter (YAML metadata) to generate dynamic tables, lists, and analytical views. Particularly valuable in llm-wiki-pattern implementations where LLMs consistently add structured metadata to wiki pages.

Core Functionality

YAML Frontmatter Queries:

• Extract and analyze metadata from wiki pages
• Filter pages by tags, dates, categories, confidence levels
• Generate dynamic content that updates automatically
• Create analytical views across the entire knowledge base

Dynamic Generation:

• Tables and lists update automatically as pages change
• No manual maintenance of summary content
• Always reflects current state of wiki

Metadata Patterns in LLM Wikis

Standard Frontmatter:

---
title: Page Title
category: concepts|entities|projects|sources
created: YYYY-MM-DD
updated: YYYY-MM-DD
tags: [tag1, tag2, tag3]
sources: [list of contributing sources]
confidence: high|medium|low
---

Extended Metadata:

• Source count tracking
• Creation and update timestamps
• Confidence assessments
• Category classifications
• Relationship mappings

Query Examples

Recent Updates:

• Pages updated in last 7 days
• Most frequently updated content
• Recent source integrations

Quality Analysis:

• Pages with low confidence ratings
• Content lacking source citations
• Orphan pages without inbound links

Content Overview:

• Pages by category with creation dates
• Tag frequency analysis
• Source contribution tracking

Use Cases in Wiki Management

Dashboard Creation:

• Overview of wiki health and activity
• Quick access to different content types
• Monitoring of maintenance needs

Quality Assurance:

• Identify content needing review or updates
• Find gaps in coverage or documentation
• Track source diversity and quality

Analytics and Insights:

• Understand knowledge accumulation patterns
• Identify most valuable content areas
• Track evolution of interests and focus

LLM Integration

Automated Metadata:

• LLM consistently adds structured frontmatter
• Tags generated based on content analysis
• Confidence levels assessed during creation
• Source tracking maintained automatically

Dashboard Queries:

• LLM can create Dataview queries for specific analytics
• Generate custom views for different purposes
• Update query logic as wiki evolves

Implementation Strategy

Gradual Adoption:

• Start with basic frontmatter (title, category, dates)
• Add tags and sources as patterns emerge
• Implement confidence ratings for quality tracking

Query Development:

• Begin with simple lists and tables
• Develop more complex analytical queries over time
• Create reusable query templates for common needs

Benefits for Wiki Scaling

Automated Organization:

• No manual maintenance of category pages
• Dynamic content reflects current state
• Reduces bookkeeping burden on both human and LLM

Insight Generation:

• Surface patterns not visible in individual pages
• Identify trends in knowledge accumulation
• Support strategic decisions about focus areas

Quality Management:

• Systematic identification of maintenance needs
• Data-driven approach to wiki health
• Objective assessment of content quality

Markdown-based slide deck format that enables generating presentations directly from llm-wiki-pattern content. Provides structured presentation capabilities as an output format for LLM query responses and knowledge synthesis.

Core Concept

Markdown to Slides:

• Write slide content in standard markdown format
• Special syntax for slide breaks and formatting
• Generate professional presentations from plain text
• Version control friendly (plain text files)

Obsidian Plugin:

• Native support within Obsidian environment
• Preview slides while editing content
• Seamless integration with wiki browsing workflow

Use Cases in LLM Wikis

Query Response Format:

• LLM can generate slide decks as answer format
• Particularly valuable for:
  • Topic overviews and summaries
  • Comparison analyses
  • Sequential explanations
  • Research presentations

Knowledge Presentation:

• Transform wiki content into presentation format
• Extract key insights from multiple pages
• Create structured narratives from accumulated knowledge
• Generate training materials and briefings

Synthesis Output:

• Present complex analyses in digestible format
• Structure multi-source comparisons visually
• Create educational content from research

Implementation Pattern

LLM Workflow:

1. Receive query requiring presentation format
2. Identify relevant wiki pages and content
3. Structure information for slide format
4. Generate Marp-formatted markdown
5. File as new wiki page if valuable for future reference

Example Output Structure:

---
marp: true
theme: default
---

# Topic Overview
Summary of key concepts

---

# Key Points
- Point 1 with wiki-link
- Point 2 with evidence
- Point 3 with implications

---

# Conclusions
Synthesis and next steps

Benefits for Knowledge Work

Structured Thinking:

• Forces clear organization of complex information
• Highlights key points and relationships
• Creates logical flow through related concepts

Reusable Assets:

• Presentations become permanent wiki artifacts
• Can be updated as knowledge evolves
• Serve as entry points for complex topics

Communication Tool:

• Share insights with others in accessible format
• Present research findings professionally
• Create educational materials from accumulated knowledge

Integration with Wiki Pattern

Output Diversity:

• One of several possible query response formats
• Alongside markdown pages, comparison tables, charts
• Chosen based on information structure and use case

Wiki Storage:

• Generated slide decks stored in wiki layer
• Cross-referenced with source pages
• Maintained and updated like other wiki content

Version Evolution:

• Presentations can be updated as knowledge evolves
• Track changes through git version control
• Reflect new insights and contradictory information

Technical Requirements

Obsidian Setup:

• Install Marp plugin for slide preview
• Configure theme and styling preferences
• Set up export options (PDF, HTML, etc.)

LLM Configuration:

• Include Marp syntax in schema documentation
• Train on slide structure best practices
• Configure when to choose slide format over alternatives
