Aktapus — The agentic wiki. AI builds it, AI reads it.

Without Aktapus, your AI forgets. With the agentic wiki, it remembers. A local CLI: pipe in docs, notes, URLs, or your codebase; AI agents compile them into a structured wiki, and Claude reads it via MCP to answer cited questions. When a source is missing, the agent fetches it, adds it as a wiki page, and re-answers — same turn. Fully local, no API key.

RAG searches at query time. Aktapus compiles at build time.
