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.

# Poyel
> *He who sustains the universe can surely be trusted with one modest wish.*

## The Angel
Poyel (פּוֹיֵאֵל) sets a root suggesting *support* and *sustaining* beside the suffix *-el*, "God," and is glossed as "God who supports the universe" or "God who upholds all things." He is the fifty-sixth ray of the Shem ha-Mephorash, drawn from Exodus 14:19–21, and his temperament is famously gentle — the angel most often invoked for the quiet fulfilment of reasonable hopes.
Poyel's virtue is *fortune, renown, and moderate desire fulfilled*. He governs the favour that arrives without struggle, the good reputation earned by merit rather than ambition, and the philosophy of contentment that keeps success from souring into greed. The tradition describes those under his influence as modest, agreeable, and well liked, esteemed for their character as much as their attainments, and it holds that Poyel grants wishes precisely to the degree that they are humble and just. His gift is not the storming of fortune's gates but their quiet opening to one who has not demanded too much. Ruling the fifth to tenth degrees of Capricorn, where the sign's discipline can yield lasting achievement, Poyel rewards patient competence with recognition. To invoke him is to ask for enough — enough fortune, enough esteem, enough ease — and for the wisdom to recognise it when it comes.
