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.

The Enneagram is a map of nine personality types arranged around a nine-pointed figure, each type defined not by its behaviour but by its underlying motivation — a core fear and a core desire that organize the whole self around them. Unlike a fixed label, it is a map of *movement*: each type has two neighbouring **wings** that colour it, and two **arrows** that show where it goes in growth (integration) and in stress (disintegration). It pairs naturally with the vault's Jungian material — another way of naming the patterns that run us until we make them conscious.

## The Three Centres
|
|
|
|
The nine types cluster into three centres of intelligence, each with a driving emotion:
|
|
|
|
**Gut / Body** *(anger, control)* — [Type 8 - The Challenger](/knowledge/enneagram/type-8-the-challenger), [Type 9 - The Peacemaker](/knowledge/enneagram/type-9-the-peacemaker), [Type 1 - The Reformer](/knowledge/enneagram/type-1-the-reformer)
|
|
**Heart** *(shame, image)* — [Type 2 - The Helper](/knowledge/enneagram/type-2-the-helper), [Type 3 - The Achiever](/knowledge/enneagram/type-3-the-achiever), [Type 4 - The Individualist](/knowledge/enneagram/type-4-the-individualist)
|
|
**Head** *(fear, security)* — [Type 5 - The Investigator](/knowledge/enneagram/type-5-the-investigator), [Type 6 - The Loyalist](/knowledge/enneagram/type-6-the-loyalist), [Type 7 - The Enthusiast](/knowledge/enneagram/type-7-the-enthusiast)
