kempersc 2761857b0d Add scripts for converting OWL/Turtle ontology to Mermaid and PlantUML diagrams
- Implemented `owl_to_mermaid.py` to convert OWL/Turtle files into Mermaid class diagrams.
- Implemented `owl_to_plantuml.py` to convert OWL/Turtle files into PlantUML class diagrams.
- Added two new PlantUML files for custodian multi-aspect diagrams.

# Session Complete: CustodianAppellation Phase 2 Refactoring
**Date**: 2025-11-22, 18:12 UTC
**Status**: ✅ COMPLETE
**Schema Version**: 0.1.0 → 0.2.0 (Phase 2)
---
## What We Accomplished
### Phase 2: Moving Appellations from Custodian to CustodianName
**Goal**: Align with W3C SKOS best practices by making appellations variants of names (not hub identifiers).
**Results**:
- ✅ Refactored `CustodianAppellation` to connect to `CustodianName` (not `Custodian`)
- ✅ Changed property from `crm:P1_is_identified_by``skos:altLabel`
- ✅ Created inverse relationship: `variant_of_name` using `skos:broader`
- ✅ Updated all schema module files
- ✅ Deprecated old `appellations.yaml` slot with migration instructions
- ✅ Generated RDF outputs (4 formats, 160-458 KB)
- ✅ Generated Mermaid ER diagram (176 lines)
- ✅ Validated schema successfully
---
## Key Architecture Changes
### Before (Phase 1)
```
Custodian --[crm:P1_is_identified_by]--> CustodianAppellation
```
*Problem*: Suggests appellations identify the hub (semantic confusion)
### After (Phase 2)
```
Custodian --[skos:prefLabel]--> CustodianName --[skos:altLabel]--> CustodianAppellation
```
*Correct*: Appellations are variants of the canonical name
---
## Files Modified
### Schema Modules (5 files)
1.`modules/classes/Appellation.yaml` - Changed to connect to CustodianName
2.`modules/classes/Custodian.yaml` - Removed appellations slot
3.`modules/classes/CustodianName.yaml` - Added alternative_names slot
4.`modules/slots/alternative_names.yaml` - NEW (CustodianName → Appellation)
5.`modules/slots/variant_of_name.yaml` - NEW (Appellation → CustodianName, inverse)
### Main Schema
6.`01_custodian_name_modular.yaml` - Updated imports and change log
### Deprecated
7. ⚠️ `modules/slots/appellations.yaml` - DEPRECATED with migration path
---
## Generated Outputs
### RDF (4 formats)
```bash
schemas/20251121/rdf/
├── 01_custodian_name_modular_20251122_181217.owl.ttl (160 KB)
├── 01_custodian_name_modular_20251122_181224.nt (458 KB)
├── 01_custodian_name_modular_20251122_181224.jsonld (382 KB)
└── 01_custodian_name_modular_20251122_181224.rdf (330 KB)
```
### UML Diagrams (1 file)
```bash
schemas/20251121/uml/mermaid/
└── 01_custodian_name_modular_20251122_181237_er.mmd (176 lines)
```
**Verified Relationships**:
```mermaid
CustodianName ||--}o CustodianAppellation : "alternative_names"
CustodianAppellation ||--|o CustodianName : "variant_of_name"
```
---
## Validation Status
### Schema Compilation ✅
```bash
$ gen-owl -f ttl 01_custodian_name_modular.yaml
# SUCCESS: 160 KB output, no errors
```
### ER Diagram ✅
- ✅ CustodianName → CustodianAppellation relationship present
- ✅ CustodianAppellation → CustodianName inverse present
- ❌ No direct Custodian → Appellation link (correct by design!)

## Documentation Generated
1.`APPELLATION_REFACTORING_PHASE2_20251122.md` - Complete Phase 2 technical documentation
2.`SESSION_COMPLETE_20251122_APPELLATION_PHASE2.md` - This summary
---
## Next Actions (TODO)
### Critical for v0.2.0 Release
- [ ] Create data migration script (`scripts/migrate_appellations_phase2.py`)
- [ ] Update README.md with new architecture diagrams
- [ ] Update SCHEMA_MODULES.md with alternative_names/variant_of_name documentation
- [ ] Create unit tests for new relationships
### Future Enhancements
- [ ] Add language-tagged appellations (`@lang` support)
- [ ] Track appellation provenance (source, temporal validity)
- [ ] Authority control integration (VIAF, ISNI)

## Session Handoff
**Current State**: Schema is validated and RDF outputs generated. Ready for data migration.
**For Next Agent**:
1. **If continuing refactoring**: Review `APPELLATION_REFACTORING_PHASE2_20251122.md` for complete technical details
2. **If creating migration script**: Convert `Custodian.appellations``CustodianName.alternative_names`
3. **If updating docs**: Use generated ER diagram to update architecture visualizations
