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.

Eligos

He discovers hidden things, and knows the outcome of wars to come.


The Spirit

Eligos — spelled also Eligor or Abigor in the wider demonological tradition — is the fifteenth spirit of the Ars Goetia and a great duke of its hierarchy. The grimoire gives him a knightly and soldierly aspect: he appears as a goodly knight, bearing a lance, an ensign, and in some accounts a serpent, an image that binds him closely to the arts of war and command. He belongs among the martial spirits of the catalogue, but his office reaches beyond the fighting itself to the knowledge and favour that surround it.

His appearance as an armed knight, rather than as a beast or a composite monster, marks him as one of the more courtly figures of the tradition, a lord of the field and of counsel.

Office

The Goetia holds that Eligos discovers hidden things and knows the outcome of wars, and how soldiers should meet in battle. He is said to procure the love of lords and of great persons, joining the martial gift of foreknowledge to the courtly gift of favour. His office therefore serves both the commander who would know the fortunes of a campaign and the suitor who would win the regard of the powerful.
