winreg-kb
github.comA project building a knowledge base about the Windows Registry, together with a reusable Python module for working with Windows Registry resources.
Knowledge Base for your filament panels
github.comA Laravel Filament plugin that turns Markdown files into a navigable documentation panel, with a companion plugin that adds a help menu and doc previews to your regular admin panels.
RepoWiki
pypi.orgRepoWiki is an open-source alternative to DeepWiki that generates a structured wiki for any local codebase from the terminal or a browser, installed with a single pip install and backed by SQLite rather than Docker or a hosted service.
Repo-Docs
yurunchen.github.ioA documentation system for AI-agent-built repositories that keeps walkthroughs, concept pages, evidence pages and sync rules updated alongside the code as agents change it.
AI Documentation Generator
github.comA multi-agent system that analyzes a codebase's structure, dependencies and APIs in parallel and generates a README plus AI-assistant configuration files, with a GitLab mode that opens merge requests automatically.
llms.txt hub
llmstxthub.comA directory of implementations of the proposed llms.txt standard, cataloging documentation and tools that help AI models interpret how to interact with a project's content, plus browser, editor and CLI tools for working with llms.txt files.
CodeAlmanac
codealmanac.comCodeAlmanac is a living wiki for a codebase, written and kept current by AI coding agents, that captures the decisions, invariants, past failures and cross-file workflows source code alone cannot express, stored as Markdown and reviewed through Git like any change.
Grounded Docs
grounded.toolsAn MCP server that indexes official documentation from websites, GitHub, npm, PyPI and local files, so an AI coding assistant can query the exact library version a project depends on.
Microsoft Learn MCP Server
learn.microsoft.comAn official, free MCP server and CLI that gives AI assistants such as Claude, Cursor, Copilot and Codex direct, no-key access to current Microsoft Learn documentation and code samples.
llmwiki
llmwiki.atomicstrata.aiA knowledge compiler that turns raw sources such as papers, notes, READMEs, transcripts and web pages into an interlinked, citation-traceable Markdown wiki that agents and people can browse, query, lint and export.
karpathy-llm-wiki
github.comAn installable Agent Skills package that turns Claude Code, Cursor or Codex into a maintainer of a Karpathy-style LLM wiki: compiling ingested sources into durable, cross-linked markdown pages and answering questions with citations.
docmd
docmd.ioA documentation compiler that turns one Markdown source into a website, full-text search, AI-ready context and other knowledge formats together, aimed at serving both human readers and AI agents from the same content.
Litho
deepwiki.netlify.appAn AI-driven documentation generator, written in Rust, that analyzes a codebase and automatically produces C4-model architecture documentation, including context, container and component diagrams, kept in sync with the code.
llms.txt
llmstxt.orgA specification for a file, published at /llms.txt on a website, that gives large language models a clear way to find and use that site's content.
Cortex
cortexdocs.devA tool that generates interactive API documentation, typed SDKs, and an MCP server from OpenAPI, AsyncAPI, GraphQL, gRPC, OpenRPC, and Markdown sources in one project configuration.
OpenDeepWiki
github.comA self-hosted platform that turns Git repositories, ZIP archives, or local directories into a searchable, AI-generated documentation and chat knowledge base.
OpenKnowledge
openknowledge.aiA private, local, markdown-first WYSIWYG editor with built-in AI editing, designed for knowledge bases, LLM wikis, specs and notes, integrated with harnesses such as Claude, Codex and OpenCode.
Quarkdown
quarkdown.comA Turing-complete extension of Markdown that compiles a single document into books, academic papers, presentations, websites or knowledge bases, with functions, variables and a live preview.
OpenWiki
github.comA CLI that turns a codebase and related knowledge sources into a linked Markdown wiki, kept up to date by a coding agent and grounded in versioned source evidence for each fact.
DeepWiki-Open
grok-wiki.comAn open source tool that automatically generates an interactive wiki for a GitHub, GitLab or BitBucket repository, analyzing the code and producing documentation, diagrams and a guided code map.
LLM Wiki
github.comA cross-platform desktop application that has a language model read imported documents and incrementally build and maintain a structured, interlinked wiki, instead of answering from scratch with retrieval-augmented generation each time.
