Publish the Obsidian vault's Knowledge folder as /knowledge (881 notes, 67 folders), with a Knowledge item in the nav and footer. - scripts/import_knowledge.py regenerates data/knowledge from the vault: slugged paths, folder notes as index pages, wikilinks resolved to site links (or plain text), callouts, highlights, and Dataview tables rendered statically. Personal notes are withheld via an exclusion list plus a privacy guard. - tuftecms/core/knowledge.py builds a concept index from note titles and aliases. First mentions on ordinary pages link to their Knowledge note (capped, never in headings, code, links, or sidenotes); Knowledge pages list related notes and where they're mentioned across the site; other pages get a Related Knowledge block. - Knowledge URLs join sitemap.xml (so the sweep test covers them), never displace existing legacy slugs, list alphabetically, and mermaid diagrams render client-side only on pages that have them.

Essence
Resh is the head — not qof's hidden hindbrain but the face, the front of the head, the countenance turned toward the light. Its name opens into rosh, head and beginning, as in Rosh Hashanah, the head of the year: resh is the letter of fresh starts made in full daylight. But the tradition also hears rash, the pauper, and rasha, the wicked — the head bowed in poverty or turned deliberately away — and reads the letter as the very hinge of teshuvah, return: the wicked need not become someone else, only turn the head around. The glyph itself is a profile in mid-turn, a bent figure that has not yet straightened.
It is a double letter under the Sun, bearing the pair of peace and war — the two conditions the face announces before a word is spoken. Its number is two hundred, resh's poverty raised to abundance.
On the Tree it is the thirtieth path, joining Hod to Yesod — splendour descending into foundation, intellect warmed into life. Its trump is The Sun, the card of the child on the white horse under the full unclouded disc: consciousness restored to innocence, clarity after the Moon's long night-road. Resh is the morning after qof — the head lifted, the face lit, the simple immense difference made by which way one is looking.
