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 Spirit
|
||
|
||
Botis is the seventeenth spirit of the Ars Goetia, counted among the Presidents of the infernal orders. He is a shape-shifting spirit, and the grimoire describes a striking transformation in the manner of his manifestation: he first appears in the form of an ugly viper, a serpent of unpleasant aspect, but when commanded by the exorcist he assumes a human shape, standing forth with great teeth and two horns, bearing in his hand a bright and sharp sword.
|
||
|
||
This doubled appearance — the reptilian and the horned humanoid — situates Botis among the many Goetic spirits whose true nature must be coaxed from a lower to a higher form through the operator’s authority. The sword he carries marks him as a spirit associated with conflict and its resolution.
|
||
|
||
## Office
|
||
|
||
The Goetia holds that Botis tells of things past and things to come, granting the operator a vision that reaches both backward into history and forward into what is yet to unfold. Beyond this office of prophecy, he is said to reconcile friends and foes alike, smoothing enmity into accord — a spirit invoked both for knowledge across time and for the mending of broken relations.
