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 Angel
|
||
|
||
Manakel is glossed as *God who supports and maintains all things*, its root carrying the sense of sustaining, upholding, and providing, joined to the divine element *-el*. It is the angel of the invisible support beneath existence — the hand under the small of the back, the sustaining pressure that keeps the world from collapse. Its particular province is the borderland of good and evil, for to maintain all things is to hold together even what strains against itself; Manakel presides over the reconciliation of opposites and the calming of what has become inflamed.
|
||
|
||
The virtue it bestows is the gift of measured feeling. Manakel soothes anger, tempers the violent passions, and grants the ruler of one's own inner weather the ability to keep a steady hand; it is invoked to know good from evil, and to bear both without being torn apart by them. The tradition also gives Manakel dominion over sleep and dreams — over the aquatic creatures of the deep and the aquatic contents of the mind alike — as though the same sustaining power that holds the waking world together descends by night to hold the dreamer. Following Damabiah's fountain, Manakel is the vessel that keeps the water from spilling, the quiet maintenance that lets everything else go on being.
