kennethreitz ce93f429a2 Add Knowledge: the vault's reference shelf, crosslinked across the site
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.

Amon

He reconciles friends and foes, and tells of things to come.


The Spirit

Amon is the seventh spirit of the Ars Goetia and one of its marquises, described as strong and powerful among the ranks of the catalogue. His name has often been connected, by later commentators, with the Egyptian deity Amun, though the grimoire itself preserves nothing of that origin beyond the resemblance of the word; within the demonological tradition he is a wholly infernal officer, a lord of great strength ruling over legions of spirits.

The compilers gave him a striking and unsettling appearance. He shows himself as a wolf with a serpent’s tail, vomiting flame, and when commanded into human form he takes the head of a raven or, in some manuscripts, of an owl with a hound’s teeth. These composite images were meant to convey both his ferocity and his rank.

Office

According to the Goetia, Amon discerns things past and things to come, and he procures both love and reconciliation. He is said to reconcile controversies between friends, and to turn enmity into friendship. His office therefore joins prophecy to the mending of quarrels — a spirit consulted to know the future and to restore broken bonds between those at odds.
