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.

Ars Goetia
The seventy-two spirits of the Lesser Key — bound, catalogued, and named.
The Ars Goetia is the first and best-known book of The Lesser Key of Solomon (the Lemegeton), a 17th-century grimoire compiling seventy-two spirits said to have been bound by King Solomon. Each entry gives the spirit's rank in the infernal hierarchy — King, Duke, Prince, Marquis, Earl, Knight, or President — the number of legions it commands, the shape it takes when it appears, and its office: the knowledge or power it confers. Studied here as a historical and psychological artifact of the Western magical tradition, alongside the Angels & Demons it mirrors.
The seventy-two spirits are sorted into seven noble ranks, an infernal parody of a feudal court:
