Methods
Named methodologies with identifiable origin.
- GraphRAG Retrieval method that builds an entity-relation graph from the corpus, summarises graph communities, and uses those summaries plus graph traversal alongside vector search.
methods.rag - HyDE — Hypothetical Document Embeddings Query expansion technique. Instead of embedding the query directly, ask the LLM to draft a hypothetical answer, then embed that. Often improves recall on short, abstract queries.
methods.retrieval - PARA Tiago Forte's organising scheme for personal knowledge — Projects, Areas, Resources, Archive. Pragmatic file-cabinet shape for execution-oriented PKM. The right scaffolding for Notion-style team workspaces; the wrong shape for thinking.
methods.pkm - Zettelkasten Luhmann's slip-box method — atomic notes, dense linking, no rigid hierarchy. Foundational influence on every modern bidirectional-link PKM tool. Easy to romanticise, hard to actually run.
