Documentation your AI agent can search semantically

Hierarchical Markdown pages with a WYSIWYG editor, image uploads to MinIO, and semantic search via pgvector + OpenAI embeddings. A wiki designed for humans and AI agents alike.

Wiki page tree with nested hierarchy

Key features

Page hierarchy

Page tree with parent/child relationships. Breadcrumbs for navigation. Child pages displayed on parent page.

WYSIWYG editor (EasyMDE)

Markdown with live preview, formatting, and drag & drop image insertion. Dark theme matching the UI.

Image uploads to MinIO

Images stored in object storage (MinIO). Path: {slug}/attachments/{filename}. Served directly.

Semantic search (RAG)

pgvector with HNSW index + OpenAI text-embedding-3-small. Ask in natural language — system finds best matching fragments.

Chunking with overlap

Pages split into ~500 token chunks with overlap. Tokenization via tiktoken. Each chunk has its own embedding.

Author tracking

Who created the page, who last edited. Full change transparency.

Graceful degradation

No OpenAI key? Wiki works normally — semantic search is simply disabled.

Markdown rendering

render_markdown_html() with Tailwind prose prose-invert. Same renderer used in Scrum tickets and comments.

How it works

1

Create a root page

E.g., "System Architecture". Use the EasyMDE editor to write in Markdown.

2

Add child pages

Create children, e.g., "Database Design" under "Architecture". Tree builds automatically.

3

Insert images

Drag images into the editor — they auto-upload to MinIO and insert as Markdown.

4

Search semantically

Type a question in the search field — system finds best matching page fragments based on meaning, not just keywords.

5

AI searches wiki via MCP

Your AI agent can read any page and search semantically — as if it were a team member.

AI & MCP

Wiki is the heart of Monolynx's AI-first approach. Your AI agent searches documentation, manages attachments and project files — 12 MCP tools.

Available MCP tools

list_wiki_pages Full hierarchy tree with parent_id and depth
get_wiki_page Page content + breadcrumbs for navigation
create_wiki_page New page with optional parent_id (child page)
update_wiki_page Edit content, title, position
delete_wiki_page Cascading delete (page + children)
search_wiki Semantic RAG search (if embeddings are active)
add_wiki_page_attachment Add attachment to wiki page (base64)
get_wiki_attachment Get wiki page attachment content (base64)
add_wiki_file Add global file to wiki repository
get_wiki_file Get global file content (base64)
update_wiki_file Update file description or name
list_wiki_files List global files in wiki repository
EasyMDE editor with Markdown preview and image uploads

Technical details

Embeddings
OpenAI text-embedding-3-small (1536 dimensions). Chunking via tiktoken (gpt-4o model), ~500 tokens with overlap.
Search
pgvector with HNSW index, cosine similarity. Results sorted by relevance with snippet preview.
Content storage
Markdown in MinIO ({slug}/pages/{page_id}.md). Metadata (title, hierarchy, position) in PostgreSQL.
Graceful degradation
OPENAI_API_KEY='' disables embeddings. Wiki works without semantic search.
