Martin Fowler Proposes LLM-Generated Glossaries to Teach Models Organizational Jargon

Martin Fowler's Bliki post describes using an LLM to mine an organization's documents, emails, and chat logs for domain-specific terms, then draft a dictionary-style glossary. Human experts review the draft to correct misreadings, and the result is stored in a compact, easy-to-consult format that other LLMs can reference. The post also recommends a regular refresh schedule and flags terms that are familiar words used in unfamiliar ways as the biggest source of confusion.

Why it matters: Teams deploying LLM agents inside their own organizations can improve results with a low-cost, practical technique that requires no model retraining.
