 ### Setup
 
-This workflow requires your repository to have a wiki enabled. It pairs naturally with [Agentic Wiki Writer](agentic-wiki-writer.md) to create a full bidirectional documentation loop.
+This workflow requires your repository to have a wiki enabled and initialized:
+
+1. **Enable the wiki**: Go to your repository's **Settings** → **Features** and check the **Wikis** checkbox.
+2. **Initialize the wiki**: Go to the **Wiki** tab and create a blank page (e.g. "Home"). GitHub does not create the underlying wiki git repository until at least one page exists.

 The [Agentic Wiki Writer workflow](../workflows/agentic-wiki-writer.md?plain=1) keeps your project's GitHub wiki synchronized with the codebase. Once a day (if any pull requests were merged to the default branch), it reads a `PAGES.md` template to understand what to document, then writes wiki pages directly from the source code. You can also trigger it manually on demand.

-> **The repository wiki must be initialized before running this workflow.** GitHub does not create the wiki git repository until at least one page exists. Go to your repository's **Wiki** tab and create a blank page (e.g. "Home") to initialize it. The workflow will fail with a git clone error if this step is skipped.
