That's what LLMs are best, actually. Go through all your stuff and painstakingly document, add tags, refer to other documents, etc

LLMs can also separate what information was only useful at a specific time vs more perennially useful notes.

Isn't the "gardening" aspect part of it though? It's where you naturally review and mentally correlate topics, infer connections in your brain and spark new paths?

However, if one doesn't want (or just doesn't have time) to do the task but still want a tidy cross-referenced set of notes, one could outsource to a LLM
