Four single-line fixes that make `/understand-knowledge` work end-to-end on Windows.
## Root causes
1. Path separator mismatch (3 occurrences in parse-knowledge-base.py)
- `str(rel.with_suffix(""))` returns backslash-separated stems on Windows
(e.g. `entities\foo`), while wikilinks always use forward slashes
(`[[entities/foo]]`).
- Result: name_map keys and article_ids hold `entities\foo`, while
`resolve_wikilink()` looks up `entities/foo` -> 100% miss.
- Tested on Windows 11 + Python 3.14: 151/151 wikilinks unresolved,
0 edges built from wikilinks.
Fix: use `rel.with_suffix("").as_posix()` in all three places
(lines 235, 316, 330 on main).
2. Null vs missing field (1 occurrence)
- `"category": category or None` writes `null` when category is empty.
- `KnowledgeMetaSchema.category` in packages/core/src/schema.ts is
`z.string().optional()`, which accepts `undefined`/missing but
rejects `null`.
- Result: every article node fails GraphNodeSchema validation in the
dashboard (`Invalid input: expected string, received null`),
all nodes get dropped, dashboard renders empty.
Fix: omit the field when empty using dict spread.
## After
Tested with a 27-article Karpathy wiki on Windows:
- before: 151 unresolved wikilinks, 0 edges, 0 nodes rendered in dashboard
- after: 0 unresolved, 110 wikilink edges + 23 LLM-implicit edges,
all 53 nodes (article/topic/entity/claim) render correctly
No behavior change on macOS/Linux: `as_posix()` is a no-op when the OS
already uses `/`, and dict spread produces the same key as the previous
truthy branch.

P1: Separate force layout computation from visual state updates so
clicking/searching/touring doesn't re-randomize node positions. Layout
only recomputes when the graph data or filters change.
P1: Restrict infrastructure-file skipping (index.md, log.md, etc.) to
the wiki root level only. Nested files like concepts/index.md are now
correctly treated as content articles.
P2: Track ambiguous bare basenames in the wikilink resolution map.
Duplicate basenames (e.g., a/foo.md and b/foo.md) are removed from
the flat lookup so [[foo]] doesn't silently resolve to the wrong page.
Also fixed: edge IDs now use stable source-target-type keys instead of
array indices for proper React reconciliation.
