Adds a closing remark (23 Feb 2026) summarising the final state of the infospace: 988 entities, 985 evaluations, 823 L2 classifications, 15 L3 relations, viability 6/6 PASS. New open tasks 20–23: 20. Complete L2 classification batch (165 entities blocked on credits) 21. Run classify-links for 58 Relation-type entities 22. Refresh stale metrics-report.md narrative 23. Smoke-test the graph command end-to-end Also committed: history.py fix — write_metrics_file now preserves non-float metric values (type_distribution dict) instead of crashing on round().

Markitect Infrastructure Tasks
Issues discovered while building the infospace-with-history example.
All three have been fixed in commit 706981c and the pipeline script
refactored to use the fixed infrastructure directly.
1. Artifact Repository does not store content — RESOLVED
File: markitect/prompts/resolver/resolver.py, line 147-148
Issue: content = f"[Content of {artifact.name} from {space_id}]" — the
resolver returns placeholder text instead of actual artifact content because
the SQLiteArtifactRepository stores metadata (digest, name, type) but not
the content itself.
Impact: Consumers must maintain their own content cache alongside the
repository, defeating the purpose of centralised artifact storage.
Fix applied: Added content field to Artifact model, content TEXT
column to SQLite schema (with migration for existing DBs), and replaced
the resolver placeholder with artifact.content.
2. ContentMacro raw_text defaults to empty string — RESOLVED
File: markitect/prompts/templates/models.py, line 46
Issue: raw_text: str = "" — when macros are constructed programmatically
(not parsed from template text), raw_text defaults to "". The
ContextCompiler then calls str.replace("", resolved.content) which inserts
content between every character, producing multi-gigabyte output.
Impact: Silent data corruption; compiled prompts become unusable.
Fix applied: Added __post_init__ to ContentMacro that auto-derives
raw_text = f"@{{{self.target}}}" when not provided.
3. No TemplateAnalyzer support for @{target} syntax — RESOLVED
File: markitect/prompts/templates/parser.py
Issue: The MacroParser parses {{kind:target}} syntax but the
templates in this example use the simplified @{target} syntax. There's
no automatic parsing for this format, requiring manual macro construction.
Fix applied: Added SHORTHAND_PATTERN to MacroParser that recognises
@{target} and maps it to MacroKind.REQUIRED. Updated has_macros(),
count_macros(), and find_macro_positions() accordingly.
Assignment Assessment (18 Feb 2026)
How the example measures against the objectives stated in README.md:
| # | Objective | Status | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Capture knowledge from Wealth of Nations | Partial | 7 of 35 chapters processed (Book I, ch. 1-7). 85 canonical entities extracted. |
| 2 | Transform to VSM concepts/entities | Done (for processed chapters) | Entities mapped to S1-S5 with strength ratings. |
| 3 | Consistent and complete | Not yet | Only 20% of chapters done. Metrics report exists but covers limited scope. |
| 4 | Schemas as scaffolding | Done | Four schemas defined and used across all stages. |
| 5 | Prompt dependency resolution | Done | @{macro} templates resolved via MultiSpaceResolutionStrategy. |
| 6 | Incremental chapter injection | Done | Pipeline processes one chapter at a time; @{existing_entities} prevents duplication. |
| 7 | Keep changes as git history | Not done | See task 4 below. |
| 8 | Metrics for completeness/consistency | Partial | Template and report exist but only cover 4 chapters (report predates ch. 5-7). |
| 9 | No infrastructure changes during experiment | Violated | Three infra fixes were required (tasks 1-3 above). Documented as intended. |
| 10 | Generate task list for infra issues | Done | This file. |
4. Infospace has no per-chapter git history — PARTIAL
Objective: README states "The information space should utilize the option
of keeping changes as git history."
Issue: The 7 processed chapters were committed in mixed batches alongside
infrastructure changes (LLM adapters, entity refactoring, archive policy).
Chapters 1-2 are bundled into fecc2fd with the entire LLM module.
Chapters 5-7 share a single commit (41773f1) with the OpenAI adapter and
archive policy. There is no commit where you can git diff to see exactly
what one chapter contributed to the infospace.
Impact: Cannot use git log, git diff, or git bisect to trace how
the infospace grew chapter by chapter — the core promise of "with history."
Progress: Branch clean-example-history was created. Chapters 1-8 have
clean per-chapter commits. 27 chapters remain. Example completeness (tasks 4
and 7) is deferred; no further action planned.
Suggested fix (original): Re-run the processed chapters using
process_chapters.py without --no-commit, on a clean branch or after
squashing the current output into a baseline commit. Each chapter gets its
own commit via _git_commit_chapter().
5. Prompt files are regenerated as a side-effect of DB rebuild — RESOLVED
Issue: Running --all --no-commit to regenerate infospace.db also
overwrites *-prompt.md files in the output directories because each
pipeline stage unconditionally writes the compiled prompt before checking
whether output already exists. The @{existing_entities} macro content
shifts as earlier chapters are loaded, so prompt files for already-processed
chapters change on every full run.
Impact: A DB regeneration dirties the working tree with prompt file
changes, even though no actual outputs changed. Users must git checkout
the prompt files after regeneration.
Fix applied: Each pipeline stage (stage_extract_entities,
stage_map_to_vsm, stage_synthesize_analysis, assess_metrics) now
skips writing the *-prompt.md file when the corresponding output file
already exists on disk. DB regeneration no longer dirties the working tree.
6. Metrics report is stale — OPEN
Issue: The metrics report (output/metrics/metrics-report.md) was
generated after chapters 1-4. Chapters 5-7 have since been processed but
the report has not been refreshed.
Impact: The metrics do not reflect the current state of the infospace.
Suggested fix: Re-run --metrics --provider <provider> --no-commit
after every batch of new chapters. Consider making metrics assessment
automatic at the end of --book or --all runs.
7. Remaining 28 chapters not yet processed — DEFERRED
Issue: Only Book I chapters 1-7 have been processed. Books II-V
(28 chapters) remain unprocessed.
Impact: The infospace is incomplete — VSM coverage is limited to S1,
S2, and partial S4. S3, S3*, S5, and many systemic concepts (algedonic
signals, recursion, variety) are expected to emerge from later books.
Note: Example completeness is deferred. The 7/35 chapter corpus is
sufficient to validate the tooling. Resuming requires the clean-example-history
branch and a valid OPENROUTER_API_KEY.
Per-Concept Metrics (tasks 8-12)
The current metrics system is a single LLM-evaluated narrative report that assesses the infospace as a whole. It produces no machine-readable output, cannot be tracked over time, and conflates per-concept quality with collection-level coherence.
The improvement splits metrics into two layers:
- LLM-Eval: A prompt template evaluates each concept individually against quality criteria defined in the schema. The LLM returns structured scores, not prose.
- Deterministic aggregation:
process_chapters.pycomputes what it can from files on disk (schema compliance, word counts, section presence, coverage tallies) and aggregates LLM-eval scores into dashboard metrics.
Both layers persist results in structured form so they can be diffed, tracked over time, and committed alongside the entities they evaluate.
8. Add per-concept quality metrics to entity schema — RESOLVED
Issue: The entity schema (economic-entity-schema-v1.0.md) defines
required sections and validation rules (section presence, word count range)
but no quality criteria. There is no definition of what makes a good
entity versus a merely compliant one.
Suggested fix: Add a ## Quality Metrics section to the entity schema
defining evaluation dimensions with scoring rubrics:
- Definition Precision (1-5): Is the definition specific, non-circular, and distinguishable from neighbouring concepts?
- Source Grounding (1-5): Is the entity grounded in a specific passage? Does the citation exist and support the definition?
- Domain Placement (1-5): Is the economic domain assignment correct and specific (not just "General Theory")?
- VSM Relevance (1-5): Does the entity connect meaningfully to at least one VSM system, or is it too granular/abstract to map?
- Explanatory Value (1-5): Does this entity contribute to explaining the economic system, or is it a restatement of another concept?
Similarly update the VSM mapping schema with:
- Rationale Rigour (1-5): Is the mapping justified with reference to Beer's definitions, not just surface-level analogy?
- Strength Calibration (1-5): Is the declared strength (Strong/Moderate/ Weak) consistent with the rationale given?
These rubrics become the prompt instructions for task 9.
Fix applied: ## Quality Metrics section added to
schemas/economic-entity-schema-v1.0.md and schemas/vsm-mapping-schema-v1.0.md.
9. Create evaluate-entity prompt template — RESOLVED
Depends on: Task 8 (quality metrics in schema).
Issue: There is no mechanism to evaluate an existing entity after
extraction. Quality is only judged implicitly during the global metrics
assessment, which is too coarse to identify individual weak entities.
Suggested fix: Create templates/evaluate-entity.md — a prompt
template that:
- Takes
@{entity_content},@{source_chapter},@{vsm_framework}, and@{quality_rubric}(from the schema's quality metrics section). - Asks the LLM to score each dimension (1-5) with a one-sentence justification per score.
- Outputs structured YAML front-matter (scores) followed by markdown (justifications), e.g.:
---
entity: division-of-labour
scores:
definition_precision: 5
source_grounding: 5
domain_placement: 4
vsm_relevance: 5
explanatory_value: 5
overall: 4.8
flags: []
---
Add a pipeline stage: --evaluate runs this template against every
canonical entity and writes results to output/evaluations/<slug>-eval.md.
A --evaluate --chapter <id> variant evaluates only entities introduced
by that chapter.
Fix applied: templates/evaluate-entity.md created. --evaluate
flag added to process_chapters.py. Reads @{quality_rubric} from the
entity schema's Quality Metrics section.
10. Add deterministic schema compliance checker — RESOLVED
Issue: Schema compliance is currently LLM-evaluated ("100%" in the
metrics report) but the validation rules in the schemas are mechanical:
section presence, word count ranges, heading format. These should be
checked programmatically, not by an LLM.
Suggested fix: Add a validate_entity(path) -> ValidationResult
function to process_chapters.py (or a new validate.py module) that:
- Parses the markdown to extract H2 section headings
- Checks required sections are present (Definition, Source Chapter, Context, Economic Domain)
- Counts words in the Definition section (must be 20-150)
- Checks H1 heading exists and is not a slug (e.g.
effectual-demandin chapter 7 has# effectual-demandinstead of# Effectual Demand) - Validates Source Chapter cites a specific book/chapter
- For mapping files: checks Mapping Strength is one of the enum values
Expose as --validate CLI flag. Output a structured report:
Validation: 85 entities, 3 warnings
effectual-demand.md: H1 is slug format, not title case
porter.md: Definition is 18 words (minimum 20)
...
This is fully deterministic — no LLM calls needed.
Fix applied: markitect/infospace/validator.py — validate_entity()
and validate_entities(). Exposed via --infospace-check.
11. Structured metrics output format — RESOLVED
Depends on: Tasks 9 and 10.
Issue: The metrics report is a markdown narrative. Values cannot be
parsed programmatically, diffed meaningfully, or plotted over time.
Suggested fix: Alongside the human-readable metrics-report.md,
emit a machine-readable metrics.yaml (or .json) containing:
timestamp: "2026-02-18T12:00:00Z"
chapters_processed: 7
chapters_total: 35
entities_total: 85
entities_archived: 0
vsm_coverage:
S1: 28
S2: 12
S3: 8
S3_star: 0
S4: 5
S5: 0
recursion: 1
variety: 0
mapping_strength:
strong: 64
moderate: 18
weak: 3
validation:
schema_compliant: 82
warnings: 3
evaluation: # from LLM-eval (task 9)
mean_overall: 4.2
min_overall: 2.8
flagged_entities: ["porter", "country-workman"]
The --metrics command writes both files. The YAML file is committed
to git so git diff shows exactly how metrics changed between runs.
Fix applied: output/metrics/metrics.yaml produced by --infospace-check.
12. Metrics-over-time tracking — RESOLVED
Depends on: Task 11 (structured output).
Issue: There is one metrics snapshot that gets overwritten. No history
of how metrics evolved as chapters were added.
Suggested fix: Append each metrics snapshot to a cumulative log file
output/metrics/metrics-history.yaml (list of timestamped entries). This
is committed to git alongside the current snapshot. The pipeline can
optionally render a simple text-based progress summary:
Metrics history (5 snapshots):
2026-02-10 ch 1/35 13 entities 41.7% VSM coverage
2026-02-11 ch 4/35 38 entities 50.0% VSM coverage
2026-02-11 ch 7/35 85 entities 58.3% VSM coverage
...
This provides the "metrics that improve over time" feedback loop the
README envisions: process chapters → evaluate → see coverage grow (or
flag regressions when a re-extraction reduces quality scores).
Fix applied: output/metrics/history.yaml maintained by
markitect/infospace/history.py.
Collection-Level Metrics (tasks 13-19)
These tasks implement the five collection-level concerns described in
METRICS-METHODOLOGY.md. They share underlying infrastructure (entity
metadata index, definition embeddings, relationship graph) that should
be built once per evaluation run.
See the methodology document for theoretical grounding, framework references, and the full metric definitions per concern.
13. Entity metadata index — deterministic parsing layer — RESOLVED
Depends on: Task 10 (schema compliance checker shares parsing logic).
Issue: Several collection-level metrics (coverage matrix, FCA context,
granularity distribution) require structured metadata extracted from entity
files: H1 title, economic domain, VSM system(s), source chapter, section
presence, word counts. Currently this information exists only as prose
inside markdown files.
Suggested fix: Add a parse_entity_metadata(path) -> EntityMeta
function that extracts from each entity file:
@dataclass
class EntityMeta:
slug: str
title: str # from H1
domain: str # from Economic Domain section
source_chapter: str # from Source Chapter section
definition_words: int # word count of Definition section
has_original_wording: bool # optional section present?
has_modern_interpretation: bool
vsm_systems: list[str] # from mapping file if exists
mapping_strengths: list[str]
Build an index of all entities at the start of each evaluation run.
This index is the input for tasks 14, 16, and 18. Expose as
--index CLI flag for inspection.
Fix applied: markitect/infospace/entity_parser.py — parse_entity_file()
and parse_entity_directory(). Used automatically by --infospace-check.
14. Redundancy detection (Concern C1) — RESOLVED
Depends on: Task 13 (metadata index).
Methodology: OOPS! P2 (synonymous classes) + embedding similarity +
LLM pairwise judgment. See METRICS-METHODOLOGY.md §4 C1.
Issue: Entities with different slugs but overlapping meanings (e.g.
natural-rate / ordinary-or-average-rate) survive extraction because
dedup only checks slug collisions. There is no semantic overlap detection.
Suggested fix: Implement in three stages:
-
Embed — Compute vector embeddings of all entity definitions using an embedding API (OpenRouter, OpenAI, or a local sentence-transformer). Cache embeddings in
output/metrics/embeddings.jsonkeyed by{slug: content_digest}so unchanged entities skip re-embedding. -
Similarity matrix — Compute NxN cosine similarity. Write the full matrix to
output/metrics/similarity-matrix.json. Flag all pairs with cosine > 0.80 as candidates. -
LLM pairwise judgment — For each candidate pair, run a prompt: "Given these two entity definitions, are they (a) the same concept and should be merged, (b) genuinely distinct, or (c) partially overlapping and should be clarified?" Write results to
output/metrics/redundancy-report.md+ YAML.
Metrics produced:
high_similarity_pairs: count and listconfirmed_synonyms: count (LLM-confirmed same concept)redundancy_ratio:confirmed_synonyms / total_entitiesintensional_conciseness:1 - redundancy_ratio
CLI: --check-redundancy --provider <provider>
Fix applied: markitect/infospace/checks/redundancy.py. Exposed via --infospace-check.
15. Coverage completeness (Concern C2) — RESOLVED
Depends on: Task 13 (metadata index). Methodology: SEQUAL completeness + FCA gap analysis + DSL competency questions. See METRICS-METHODOLOGY.md §4 C2. Issue: Coverage is currently assessed by the LLM in a single narrative pass. There is no structured view of which domain × VSM cells are populated, and no way to test whether the entity set can answer specific questions about the economic system. Suggested fix: Implement in three stages:
-
Domain × VSM matrix — From the metadata index, count entities per {economic_domain, vsm_system} cell. Render as a table. Identify empty cells as specific, actionable gaps. Compute:
coverage_ratio = populated_cells / total_cellsvsm_balance_entropy = -Σ(pᵢ log pᵢ)across VSM systems
-
FCA lattice — Construct a formal context with objects = entities, attributes = {domain, vsm_system, source_book, abstraction_level}. Compute the concept lattice (Python
conceptslibrary). Extract attribute combinations with no corresponding entity — these are structural coverage gaps not visible in the simple matrix. -
Competency questions — Define a set of 15-20 canonical questions the infospace should answer (stored in
schemas/competency-questions.md). Example questions:- "How does the division of labour relate to market extent?"
- "What mechanisms regulate wages toward their natural rate?"
- "How do monopolies distort the viable system?" LLM-Eval tests whether current entities suffice to answer each. Unanswerable questions identify specific completeness gaps.
Metrics produced:
domain_vsm_matrix: cell countscoverage_ratio: scalarvsm_balance_entropy: scalarempty_cells: list of {domain, vsm_system} gapsfca_gap_concepts: attribute combos with no entitycompetency_coverage: fraction of questions answerable
CLI: --check-coverage --provider <provider>
Fix applied: markitect/infospace/checks/coverage.py. Exposed via --infospace-check.
16. Structural coherence (Concern C3) — RESOLVED
Depends on: Task 13 (metadata index). Methodology: OntoQA relationship richness + graph connectivity + community detection. See METRICS-METHODOLOGY.md §4 C3. Issue: It is unknown whether the 85 entities form a connected explanatory web or a fragmented collection. No relationship graph exists between entities. Suggested fix: Implement in three stages:
-
Explicit cross-references — Scan each entity's definition for mentions of other entity slugs or titles (normalised string matching). This is deterministic and catches direct references.
-
LLM-inferred edges — For entity pairs not caught by string matching but in the same domain or VSM system, LLM-Eval: "Does A's definition conceptually depend on or explain B, or vice versa?" Run in batches. Write the combined graph to
output/metrics/relationship-graph.json(adjacency list). -
Graph analysis — Using networkx or equivalent:
- Connected components (target: 1)
- Graph density, average degree
- Betweenness centrality → identify bridge concepts
- Louvain community detection → compare to declared domains
- OntoQA Relationship Richness
- Cohesion per domain, coupling across domains
- Orphan entities (degree 0 or 1)
Metrics produced:
connected_components: count (target: 1)graph_density: scalaravg_degree: scalarrelationship_richness: OntoQA RRmodularity: Louvain scorebridge_concepts: list (high betweenness centrality)orphan_entities: list (degree ≤ 1)cohesion_by_domain/coupling_across_domains: scalars
CLI: --check-coherence --provider <provider>
Fix applied: markitect/infospace/checks/coherence.py. Exposed via --infospace-check.
17. Definitional consistency (Concern C4) — RESOLVED
Depends on: Task 16 (relationship graph — the definitional dependency graph is a directed variant of the same structure). Methodology: OntoClean metaproperties + OOPS! P24 (circular definitions) + SEQUAL validity. See METRICS-METHODOLOGY.md §4 C4. Issue: No mechanism to detect circular definitions, contradictions between related entities, or terms used in definitions that should be entities but aren't. Suggested fix: Implement in four stages:
-
Definitional dependency graph — Directed version of the relationship graph: edge A→B means A's definition uses B's concept. Reuse cross-reference extraction from task 16.
-
Cycle detection — Find all cycles of length ≤ 3 in the directed graph. Short cycles are problematic (A defines B, B defines A). Compute
grounding_ratio: fraction of entities traceable to terms outside the entity set without encountering a cycle. -
Undefined dependencies — Extract terms from definitions that match entity-name patterns (capitalised noun phrases, kebab-case slugs) but have no corresponding entity file. These are concepts the infospace implicitly relies on but hasn't defined.
-
LLM consistency checks — For directly-connected entity pairs, LLM-Eval: "Do these definitions contradict each other?" For entities with Smith's Original Wording, LLM-Eval: "Does the definition accurately represent the cited passage?"
Metrics produced:
circular_definitions: count and list of cycles (length ≤ 3)grounding_ratio: fraction of entities reaching primitivesundefined_dependencies: list of missing termscontradiction_candidates: LLM-flagged pairssource_fidelity_score: fraction passing source check
CLI: --check-consistency --provider <provider>
Fix applied: markitect/infospace/checks/consistency.py. Exposed via --infospace-check.
18. Granularity balance (Concern C5) — RESOLVED
Depends on: Task 13 (metadata index).
Methodology: Keet granularity theory + OntoClean rigidity +
DSL laconicity. See METRICS-METHODOLOGY.md §4 C5.
Issue: Entities range from broad sectors (agriculture) to specific
market roles (effectual-demanders) to abstract principles
(division-of-labour). It is unclear whether this range is appropriate
or whether some entities are too specific/general relative to their peers.
Suggested fix: Implement in three stages:
-
LLM classification — For each entity, LLM-Eval assigns:
- Abstraction level:
theory/mechanism/observation - Scope score: 1-5 (very specific → very general)
- Indispensability: 1-5 ("if removed, how much explanatory power lost?")
Write to
output/evaluations/<slug>-classification.yaml.
- Abstraction level:
-
Distribution analysis — Deterministic:
- Count per abstraction level; compute entropy
- Per-domain scope variance (flag domains with high variance)
- Level × domain matrix (from FCA context in task 15)
- Outlier detection: entities > 1.5σ from their domain's mean scope
-
Merge/split recommendations — For outlier entities, LLM-Eval: "Should this entity be merged into a broader concept, split into sub-concepts, or is its current granularity justified?" For entities with indispensability ≤ 2: "Could another entity serve this purpose?"
Metrics produced:
abstraction_distribution: {theory: n, mechanism: n, observation: n}abstraction_entropy: scalar (higher = more balanced)scope_variance_by_domain: per-domain scalardispensable_entities: list (indispensability ≤ 2)merge_candidates: list of pairssplit_candidates: list of entities
CLI: --check-granularity --provider <provider>
Fix applied: markitect/infospace/checks/granularity.py. Exposed via --infospace-check.
19. Unified collection evaluation command — RESOLVED
Depends on: Tasks 13-18.
Issue: Running five separate --check-* commands is cumbersome and
repeats shared computation (metadata parsing, embedding, graph building).
Suggested fix: Add --evaluate-collection --provider <provider> that
runs all five checks in sequence, sharing infrastructure:
- Parse entity metadata index (task 13) — used by all
- Compute embeddings (task 14) — used by C1, C3
- Build relationship graph (task 16) — used by C3, C4
- Run all five concern checks
- Write per-concern reports to
output/metrics/ - Write unified
metrics.yamlwith all collection metrics - Append to
metrics-history.yaml(task 12)
Incremental mode: --evaluate-collection --chapter <id> re-evaluates
only entities from that chapter plus pairwise checks involving them.
Fix applied: markitect/infospace/checks/orchestrator.py + --infospace-check
CLI flag. All five checks share the metadata index. Results recorded in
output/metrics/metrics.yaml and output/metrics/history.yaml.
Report a summary to stdout:
Collection evaluation (85 entities, 7 chapters):
Redundancy: 3 synonym candidates, conciseness 0.96
Coverage: 58% VSM, 20% chapters, 4 domain gaps
Coherence: 1 component, density 0.12, 2 orphans
Consistency: 0 cycles, 5 undefined deps, 0 contradictions
Granularity: entropy 1.42, 1 dispensable, 2 merge candidates
Closing Remark (23 Feb 2026)
All 19 original infrastructure tasks have been resolved (or intentionally deferred for scope reasons — tasks 4 and 7). The infospace now has:
- 988 entities extracted from 7 of 35 WoN chapters
- 985 per-entity LLM evaluations (5 dimensions, mean 3.96/5.0)
- 823 L2 type × VSM classifications (29/30 matrix cells occupied)
- 15 L3 relation triplets with 6 feedback loops detected
- Viability dashboard: 6/6 PASS
The tooling built here generalises beyond this example. The markitect infospace CLI family — classify, evaluate, check, relations,
graph, viability — is ready to use on any new infospace.
The following tasks remain open as of this writing:
20. Complete L2 classification batch — OPEN
Issue: 165 of 988 entities remain unclassified. The batch was
interrupted by OpenRouter credit exhaustion (HTTP 402) near the end of
the alphabet (roughly w–z entities).
Impact: classify-summary reports 823/988 entities; the type × VSM
matrix has one empty cell (Institution/S4) that may fill once the
remaining entities are classified.
Fix: Run markitect infospace classify --provider openrouter (or
--provider gemini --rpm 10 after daily quota reset). Incremental skip
handles the 823 already classified automatically.
21. Run classify-links for Relation-type entities — OPEN
Depends on: Task 20 (full classification batch).
Issue: 58 entities were classified as type Relation. These are
structural connectors (e.g. "Rent determined by Price") that name two
endpoints and a mechanism. The classify-links command captures this
endpoint data (SUBJECT, OBJECT, MECHANISM fields), enriching the
classification files and enabling the entities --by-type display
to show the relation graph inline.
Impact: Without classify-links, Relation-type entities are displayed
without their linking data. The graph command cannot draw edges through
Relation-typed entities as intermediaries.
Fix: markitect infospace classify-links --provider openrouter
(or gemini). Enriches existing classification files in-place; safe to
re-run.
22. Refresh stale metrics report — OPEN
Issue (original task 6, still open): output/metrics/metrics-report.md
is a narrative report generated by the old pipeline. It predates the
structured metrics.yaml / history.yaml system and reflects only
the 7-chapter partial corpus without LLM evaluation scores.
Impact: The narrative report is misleading — it shows outdated numbers.
Readers may trust it over the authoritative metrics.yaml.
Fix: Either regenerate via markitect infospace process --post-batch
(if the assess-metrics template is updated to reference metrics.yaml),
or archive the old report with a deprecation notice pointing to
output/metrics/metrics.yaml.
23. Smoke-test the graph command end-to-end — OPEN
Issue: markitect infospace graph was implemented and committed
(S2 graph export module) but has not been exercised against real
classified data from this example.
Impact: The command may have edge cases when combining sparse
classifications (823/988 entities) with the 15 seed relation files.
Filters (--type, --vsm, --loops, --entity) and both output
formats (Mermaid, DOT) should be verified.
Fix: Run a few representative invocations:
markitect infospace graph --format mermaid --color-by vsm --loops
markitect infospace graph --type Relation --format dot
markitect infospace graph --entity division_of_labour
Fix any rendering issues found.
