Research direction

Start with gknowledge/core/lint.py and read canon() in core/extraction.py to understand title normalization. Check how the project represents review items and appends entries to knowledge/log.md, then look at the existing tests in tests/ and run make test. Done means lint reports orphan pages, broken [[links]], and near-duplicate titles, records each finding as a review item, and appends each run to the log.
