LLM Wiki

A pattern for building personal knowledge bases using LLMs.

This is an idea file, it is designed to be copy pasted to your own LLM Agent (e.g. OpenAI Codex, Claude Code, OpenCode / Pi, or etc.). Its goal is to communicate the high level idea, but your agent will build out the specifics in collaboration with you.

The core idea

Most people's experience with LLMs and documents looks like RAG: you upload a collection of files, the LLM retrieves relevant chunks at query time, and generates an answer. This works, but the LLM is rediscovering knowledge from scratch on every question. There's no accumulation. Ask a subtle question that requires synthesizing five documents, and the LLM has to find and piece together the relevant fragments every time. Nothing is built up. NotebookLM, ChatGPT file uploads, and most RAG systems work this way.

Gemini Image Segmentation with Genkit

This Gist shows a working example of Gemini 2.5 image segmentation working in Genkit JS.

The actual code for the image segmentation in indext.ts is small, most of the code is sample code using the sharp library to generate an image with segmented overlays.

Stop using JWTs!

TLDR: JWTs should not be used for keeping your user logged in. They are not designed for this purpose, they are not secure, and there is a much better tool which is designed for it: regular cookie sessions.

If you've got a bit of time to watch a presentation on it, I highly recommend this talk: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pYeekwv3vC4 (Note that other topics are largely skimmed over, such as CSRF protection. You should learn about other topics from other sources. Also note that "valid" usecases for JWTs at the end of the video can also be easily handled by other, better, and more secure tools. Specifically, PASETO.)

A related topic: Don't use localStorage (or sessionStorage) for authentication credentials, including JWT tokens: https://www.rdegges.com/2018/please-stop-using-local-storage/

The reason to avoid JWTs comes down to a couple different points:

• The JWT specification is specifically designed only for very short-live tokens (~5 minute or less). Sessions

NgRx State Management with TicketFacade

Facades are a programming pattern in which a simpler public interface is provided to mask a composition of internal, more-complex, component usages.

When writing a lot of NgRx code - as many enterprises do - developers quickly accumulate large collections of actions and selectors classes. These classes are used to dispatch and query [respectively] the NgRx Store.

Using a Facade - to wrap and blackbox NgRx - simplifies accessing and modifying your NgRx state by masking internal all interactions with the Store, actions, reducers, selectors, and effects.

For more introduction, see Better State Management with Ngrx Facades
