enowiki 0.1.1

eno — vault indexing, parsing, and query primitives

enowiki

Structural intelligence and gardening for your Obsidian vault — the library and eno CLI.

A markdown vault grows into a pile. Notes go orphaned, stubs never get finished, pages drift into saying the same thing twice, and every "what does my vault know about X?" costs a full-text grep plus a fat LLM read. enowiki indexes the vault into a queryable surface and gardens it — from the command line, with no LLM dependency and no model runtime to stand up.

The PyPI distribution is enowiki (the bare eno was already taken on PyPI by an unrelated package). The command, the config vars, and the import eno module are all just eno.

Install

pip install enowiki

Requires Python 3.12+. The core has no network dependency at all.

Quickstart

export ENO_VAULT_DIR=~/vault      # or pass --vault to any command
eno index                         # build the index (writes <vault>/.eno/index.db)
eno hygiene                       # frontmatter contract audit
eno search "mechanism design"     # paths + excerpts, not full notes

There is no default vault path — a tool that operates on your notes should never guess which directory that is. Set $ENO_VAULT_DIR or pass --vault. The index lives at <vault>/.eno/ (override with $ENO_DIR). Add --json to any command for machine-readable output.

What it does

Retrieve — search, note, neighbors, frontier, hot. Graph-aware, excerpt-first retrieval over frontmatter, wikilinks, tags, and headings. Queries return paths and small excerpts, not whole notes, so nothing loads your vault into a prompt.

Garden & check health — orphans, stubs, stale, broken-links, hygiene, garden. The garden command writes a dated report back into the vault (under 9 Vault Health/) so it's wikilinkable, graph-visible, and indexable by eno itself. Structural changes always keep a human in the loop — eno never auto-merges or auto-deletes.

Write back — create-note and append-to-note file notes with provenance frontmatter (origin: llm, an author wikilink), so later gardening passes stay provenance-aware.

The [llm] extra

The LLM-backed features are behind an optional extra and import their model dependency lazily — the structural core above needs none of it:

pip install enowiki[llm]

• eno fold — distills a date range or a topic (by wikilink, folder, or tag) into a structured, cited rollup note, with supersession metadata and fold-of-folds level stacking. Extractive-only, with a count-check that flags any numeric claim or citation date not present in the sources.
• eno tiling — body-content semantic dedup: finds notes that say the same thing in different words, in two confidence bands. A signal for human review, never an auto-merge.

Both route through somm, which owns provider selection and is local-first (ollama) by default — vault prose never has to leave your machine. Call these without the extra installed and you get a clean pip install enowiki[llm] hint, not a crash.

The rest of the family

enowiki is the core of a small workspace. Two sibling packages put the same index behind other faces:

• eno-mcp — an MCP stdio server exposing the read/write tools to coding agents.
• eno-service — a FastAPI face on the read endpoints, for sibling tools.
