wiki-dedup

Wiki Dedup scans your Obsidian vault to identify pages covering the same concept under different names—like "RSC" versus "React Server Components"—and merges them safely. The skill operates in audit, merge, and auto-merge modes, scoring candidate pairs by title similarity, aliases, and semantic signals before presenting findings for confirmation.

Wiki Dedup finds and merges Obsidian wiki pages covering identical concepts under different names.

Frequently asked questions

AI-generated answers based on this skill's SKILL.md and metadata

What does wiki-dedup do?

Wiki Dedup scans your Obsidian vault to identify pages covering the same concept under different names—like "RSC" versus "React Server Components"—and merges them safely. The skill operates in audit, merge, and auto-merge modes, scoring candidate pairs by title similarity, aliases, and semantic signals before presenting findings for confirmation.

How do I find duplicate pages in obsidian with wiki-dedup?

Wiki Dedup detects page-level identity collisions by analyzing titles, aliases, and semantic content across your vault. It scores candidate pairs using similarity metrics and semantic signals, then presents matches ranked by confidence so you can review and confirm before any merge occurs.

Can wiki-dedup merge duplicate wiki pages automatically?

Wiki Dedup offers three modes: audit (review only), merge (confirm each pair), and auto-merge (apply high-confidence matches). In all modes, the skill rewrites wikilinks after consolidation to point to the canonical version, ensuring your vault remains internally consistent.

How does wiki-dedup handle pages covering the same concept with different names?

Wiki Dedup finds pages covering the same concept under different names by combining title similarity analysis, alias matching, and semantic signals. Once you confirm a merge, it consolidates content into a single canonical page and updates all wikilinks throughout your vault.

What audit capabilities does wiki-dedup provide?

Wiki Dedup's audit mode lets you scan your vault for duplicates before committing to merge operations. It identifies candidate pairs, scores them by confidence, and displays results for review—allowing you to validate findings and selectively approve merges without automatic changes.

Does wiki-dedup rewrite links after consolidating duplicates?

Yes. Wiki Dedup rewrites wikilinks after merging duplicate pages into canonical versions, ensuring all internal references point to the consolidated page. This cleanup prevents broken links and maintains vault integrity throughout the deduplication process.

SKILL.md

rendered from the published skill — quoted content, verbatim

Wiki Dedup — Identity Resolution and Page-Level Deduplication

You are finding and merging wiki pages that cover the same concept under different names. This is a write-heavy, potentially destructive skill — page merges cannot be automatically undone. Work carefully and confirm before acting in merge mode.

Follow the Retrieval Primitives table in llm-wiki/SKILL.md. The candidate-detection pass uses only frontmatter and titles (cheap). Only open full page bodies for confirmed candidate pairs.
