# AI Agent Instructions for GLAM Data Extraction
This document provides instructions for AI agents (particularly OpenCODE and Claude) to assist with extracting heritage institution data from conversation JSON files and other sources.
---
## 🎯 PROJECT CORE MISSION
**PRIMARY OBJECTIVE**: Create a comprehensive, nuanced ontology that accurately represents the complex, temporal, multi-faceted nature of heritage custodian institutions worldwide.
This is NOT a simple data extraction project. This is an **ontology engineering project** that:
- Models heritage entities as multi-aspect temporal entities (place, custodian, legal form, collections, people)
- Integrates multiple base ontologies (CPOV, TOOI, CIDOC-CRM, RiC-O, Schema.org, PiCo)
- Captures organizational change events over time (custody transfers, mergers, transformations)
- Distinguishes between nominal references and formal organizational structures
- Links heritage custodians to people, collections, and locations with independent temporal lifecycles
**If you're looking for simple NER extraction, this is not the right project.**

## 🚨 CRITICAL RULES FOR ALL AGENTS
This section summarizes 45 critical rules. Each rule has complete documentation in `.opencode/` files.
### Rule 0: LinkML Schemas Are the Single Source of Truth
🚨 **CRITICAL**: LinkML schema files in `schemas/20251121/linkml/` are the authoritative definition of the Heritage Custodian Ontology.
**Key Points**:
- ALL derived files (RDF, TypeDB, UML) are GENERATED - never edit them directly
- Always use full timestamps (`YYYYMMDD_HHMMSS`) in generated filenames
- Primary schema: `schemas/20251121/linkml/01_custodian_name.yaml`
**Workflow**:
```
1. EDIT LinkML schema
2. REGENERATE: gen-owl → rdfpipe → all 8 RDF formats
3. REGENERATE: gen-yuml → UML diagrams
4. UPDATE: TypeDB schema (manual)
5. VALIDATE: linkml-validate
```
**See**: `.opencode/SCHEMA_GENERATION_RULES.md` for complete generation rules
---
### Rule 0b: LinkML Type/Types File Naming Convention
🚨 **CRITICAL**: When creating class hierarchies that replace enums, follow the **Type/Types** naming pattern.
**Naming Pattern**:
- **`[Entity]Type.yaml`** (singular): Abstract base class defining the type taxonomy
- **`[Entity]Types.yaml`** (plural): File containing all concrete subclasses
**Examples**:
| Base Class File | Subclasses File | Description |
|-----------------|-----------------|-------------|
| `DigitalPlatformType.yaml` | `DigitalPlatformTypes.yaml` | Digital platform type taxonomy (69 types) |
| `WebPortalType.yaml` | `WebPortalTypes.yaml` | Web portal type taxonomy |
| `CustodianType.yaml` | `CustodianTypes.yaml` | Heritage custodian type taxonomy (GLAMORCUBESFIXPHDNT) |
**Import Pattern**:
```yaml
# In DigitalPlatformTypes.yaml (subclasses file)
imports:
- ./DigitalPlatformType # Import base class
classes:
DigitalLibrary:
is_a: DigitalPlatformType # Inherit from base
# ...
```
**Rationale**:
1. **Clarity**: "Type" (singular) = one abstract concept; "Types" (plural) = many concrete subclasses
2. **Discoverability**: Related files are adjacent in directory listings
3. **Consistency**: Follows established pattern across schema (CustodianType/CustodianTypes, WebPortalType/WebPortalTypes)
**Anti-Pattern**:
-`DigitalPlatformTypeBase.yaml` - "Base" suffix is redundant; use singular "Type" instead
-`DigitalPlatformTypeClasses.yaml` - "Classes" is less intuitive than "Types"
**See**: `.opencode/rules/type-naming-convention.md` for complete documentation
---
### Rule 1: Ontology Files Are Your Primary Reference
🚨 **CRITICAL**: Before designing any schema, class, or property, consult base ontologies.
**Required Steps**:
1. READ base ontology files in `/data/ontology/`
2. SEARCH for existing classes and properties
3. DOCUMENT your ontology alignment with rationale
4. NEVER invent custom properties when ontology equivalents exist
**Available Ontologies**:
- `tooiont.ttl` - TOOI (Dutch government)
- `core-public-organisation-ap.ttl` - CPOV (EU public sector)
- `schemaorg.owl` - Schema.org (web semantics)
- `CIDOC_CRM_v7.1.3.rdf` - CIDOC-CRM (cultural heritage)
- `RiC-O_1-1.rdf` - Records in Contexts (archival)
- `pico.ttl` - PiCo (person observations)
**See**: `.opencode/HYPER_MODULAR_STRUCTURE.md` for complete documentation
---
### Rule 2: Wikidata Entities Are NOT Ontology Classes
🚨 **CRITICAL**: Files in `data/wikidata/GLAMORCUBEPSXHFN/` contain Wikidata Q-numbers for institution TYPES, NOT formal ontology class definitions.
**Workflow**: `Wikidata Q-number → Analyze semantics → Search ontologies → Map to ontology class → Document rationale`
**Note**: Full rule content preserved in Appendix below (no .opencode equivalent).
---
### Rule 3: Multi-Aspect Modeling is Mandatory
🚨 **CRITICAL**: Every heritage entity has MULTIPLE ontological aspects with INDEPENDENT temporal lifecycles.
**Required Aspects**:
| Aspect | Ontology Class | Temporal Example |
|--------|---------------|------------------|
| Place | `crm:E27_Site` | Building: 1880-present |
| Custodian | `cpov:PublicOrganisation` | Foundation: 1994-present |
| Legal Form | `org:FormalOrganization` | Registration: 1994-present |
| Collections | `rico:RecordSet` | Accession dates vary |
| People | `pico:PersonObservation` | Employment: 2020-present |
| Events | `crm:E10_Transfer_of_Custody` | Discrete timestamps |
**Note**: Full rule content preserved in Appendix below (no .opencode equivalent).
---
### Rule 4: Technical Classes Are Excluded from Visualizations
🚨 **CRITICAL**: Some LinkML classes exist solely for validation (e.g., `Container` with `tree_root: true`). These have NO semantic significance and MUST be excluded from UML diagrams.
**Excluded Classes**: `Container` (tree_root for validation only)
**See**: `.opencode/LINKML_TECHNICAL_CLASSES.md` for complete documentation
---
### Rule 5: NEVER Delete Enriched Data - Additive Only
🚨 **CRITICAL**: Data enrichment is ADDITIVE ONLY. Never delete or overwrite existing enriched content.
**Protected Data Types**:
| Source | Protected Fields |
|--------|------------------|
| Google Maps | `reviews`, `rating`, `photo_count`, `popular_times`, `place_id` |
| OpenStreetMap | `osm_id`, `osm_type`, `osm_tags`, `amenity`, `heritage` |
| Wikidata | `wikidata_id`, `claims`, `sitelinks`, `aliases` |
| Website Scrape | `organization_details`, `collections`, `contact`, `social_media` |
| ISIL Registry | `isil_code`, `assigned_date`, `remarks` |
**See**: `.opencode/DATA_PRESERVATION_RULES.md` for complete documentation
---
### Rule 6: WebObservation Claims MUST Have XPath Provenance
🚨 **CRITICAL**: Every claim extracted from a webpage MUST have an XPath pointer to the exact location in archived HTML. Claims without XPath provenance are FABRICATED.
**Required Fields**:
```yaml
claim_type: full_name
claim_value: "Institution Name"
source_url: https://example.org/about
retrieved_on: "2025-11-29T12:28:00Z"
xpath: /html/body/div[1]/h1
html_file: web/GHCID/example.org/rendered.html
xpath_match_score: 1.0
```
**Scope**: Applies to `WebClaim` and `WebObservation` classes. Other classes (CustodianTimelineEvent, GoogleMapsEnrichment) have different provenance models.
**See**: `.opencode/WEB_OBSERVATION_PROVENANCE_RULES.md` for complete documentation
---
### Rule 7: Deployment is LOCAL via SSH/rsync (NO CI/CD)
🚨 **CRITICAL**: NO GitHub Actions. ALL deployments executed locally via SSH and rsync.
**Server**: `91.98.224.44` (Hetzner Cloud)
**Two Frontend Apps** (MONOREPO):
| Domain | Local Directory | Server Path |
|--------|-----------------|-------------|
| bronhouder.nl | `/frontend/` | `/var/www/glam-frontend/` |
| archief.support | `/apps/archief-assistent/` | `/var/www/archief-assistent/` |
**Deployment Commands**:
```bash
./infrastructure/deploy.sh --frontend # bronhouder.nl
./infrastructure/deploy.sh --data # Data files only
./infrastructure/deploy.sh --status # Check server
```
**See**: `.opencode/DEPLOYMENT_RULES.md` and `.opencode/MONOREPO_FRONTEND_APPS.md`
---
### Rule 8: Legal Form Terms MUST Be Filtered from CustodianName
🚨 **CRITICAL**: Exception to emic principle - Legal forms are ALWAYS filtered from CustodianName.
**Examples**: `Stichting Rijksmuseum` → CustodianName: `Rijksmuseum`, Legal Form: `Stichting`
**Terms to Filter** (by language):
- Dutch: Stichting, B.V., N.V., Coöperatie
- English: Foundation, Inc., Ltd., LLC, Corp.
- German: Stiftung, e.V., GmbH, AG
- French: Fondation, S.A., S.A.R.L.
**NOT Filtered** (part of identity): Vereniging, Association, Society, Verein
**See**: `.opencode/LEGAL_FORM_FILTERING_RULE.md` for complete documentation
---
### Rule 9: Enum-to-Class Promotion - Single Source of Truth
🚨 **CRITICAL**: When an enum is promoted to a class hierarchy, the original enum MUST be deleted. Never maintain parallel enum/class definitions.
**Archive Location**: `schemas/20251121/linkml/archive/enums/`
**See**: `.opencode/ENUM_TO_CLASS_PRINCIPLE.md` for complete documentation
---
### Rule 10: CH-Annotator is the Entity Annotation Convention
🚨 **CRITICAL**: All entity annotation follows `ch_annotator-v1_7_0` convention.
**9 Hypernym Types**: AGT (Agent), GRP (Group), TOP (Toponym), GEO (Geometry), TMP (Temporal), APP (Appellation), ROL (Role), WRK (Work), QTY (Quantity)
**Heritage Institutions**: `GRP.HER` with GLAMORCUBESFIXPHDNT subtypes (GRP.HER.MUS, GRP.HER.LIB, GRP.HER.ARC, etc.)
**See**: `.opencode/CH_ANNOTATOR_CONVENTION.md` for complete documentation
---
### Rule 11: Z.AI GLM API for LLM Tasks (NOT BigModel)
🚨 **CRITICAL**: Use Z.AI Coding Plan endpoint, NOT regular BigModel API.
**Configuration**:
- API URL: `https://api.z.ai/api/coding/paas/v4/chat/completions`
- Environment Variable: `ZAI_API_TOKEN`
- Models: `glm-4.5`, `glm-4.5-air`, `glm-4.5-flash`, `glm-4.6`
- Cost: Free (0 per token)
**See**: `.opencode/ZAI_GLM_API_RULES.md` for complete documentation
---
### Rule 12: Person Data Reference Pattern - Avoid Inline Duplication
🚨 **CRITICAL**: Person profiles stored in `data/custodian/person/entity/`. Custodian files reference via `person_profile_path` - NEVER duplicate 50+ lines of profile data inline.
**File Naming**: `{linkedin-slug}_{ISO-timestamp}.json`
**See**: `.opencode/PERSON_DATA_REFERENCE_PATTERN.md` for complete documentation
---
### Rule 13: Custodian Type Annotations on LinkML Schema Elements
🚨 **CRITICAL**: All schema elements MUST have `custodian_types` annotation with GLAMORCUBESFIXPHDNT single-letter codes.
**Annotation Keys**: `custodian_types` (list), `custodian_types_rationale` (string), `custodian_types_primary` (string)
**Universal**: Use `["*"]` for elements applying to all types.
**See**: `.opencode/CUSTODIAN_TYPE_ANNOTATION_CONVENTION.md` for complete documentation
---
### Rule 14: Exa MCP LinkedIn Profile Extraction
🚨 **CRITICAL**: Use `exa_crawling_exa` with direct URL for comprehensive LinkedIn profile extraction.
**Tool Priority**:
1. `exa_crawling_exa` - Profile URL known (preferred)
2. `exa_linkedin_search_exa` - Profile URL unknown
3. `exa_web_search_exa` - Fallback search
**Output**: `data/custodian/person/entity/{linkedin-slug}_{timestamp}.json`
**See**: `.opencode/EXA_LINKEDIN_EXTRACTION_RULES.md` for complete documentation
---
### Rule 15: Connection Data Registration - Full Network Preservation
🚨 **CRITICAL**: ALL LinkedIn connections must be fully registered in dedicated connections files.
**File Location**: `data/custodian/person/{slug}_connections_{timestamp}.json`
**Required**: `source_metadata`, `connections[]` array, `network_analysis` with heritage type breakdown
**See**: `.opencode/CONNECTION_DATA_REGISTRATION_RULE.md` for complete documentation
---
### Rule 16: LinkedIn Photo URLs - Store CDN URLs, Not Overlay Pages
🚨 **CRITICAL**: Store actual CDN URL, NOT overlay page URL.
- ❌ WRONG: `linkedin.com/in/{slug}/overlay/photo/` (derivable, useless)
- ✅ CORRECT: `media.licdn.com/dms/image/v2/{ID}/profile-displayphoto-shrink_800_800/...`
**See**: `.opencode/LINKEDIN_PHOTO_CDN_RULE.md` for complete documentation
---
### Rule 17: LinkedIn Connection Unique Identifiers
🚨 **CRITICAL**: Every connection gets unique ID including abbreviated and anonymous names.
**Format**: `{target_slug}_conn_{index:04d}_{name_slug}`
**Name Types**: `full`, `abbreviated` (Amy B.), `anonymous` (LinkedIn Member)
**See**: `.opencode/LINKEDIN_CONNECTION_ID_RULE.md` for complete documentation
---
### Rule 18: Custodian Staff Parsing from LinkedIn Company Pages
🚨 **CRITICAL**: Use `scripts/parse_custodian_staff.py` for staff registration parsing.
**Staff ID Format**: `{custodian_slug}_staff_{index:04d}_{name_slug}`
**See**: `.opencode/CUSTODIAN_STAFF_PARSING_RULE.md` for complete documentation
---
### Rule 19: HTML-Only LinkedIn Extraction (Preferred Method)
🚨 **CRITICAL**: Use ONLY manually saved HTML files for LinkedIn data extraction.
**Data Completeness**: HTML = 100% (including profile URLs), MD copy-paste = ~90%
**Script**: `scripts/parse_linkedin_html.py`
**How to Save**: Navigate → Scroll to load all → File > Save Page As > "Webpage, Complete"
**See**: `.opencode/HTML_ONLY_LINKEDIN_EXTRACTION_RULE.md` for complete documentation
---
### Rule 20: Person Entity Profiles - Individual File Storage
🚨 **CRITICAL**: Person profiles stored as individual files in `data/custodian/person/entity/`.
**File Naming**: `{linkedin-slug}_{ISO-timestamp}.json`
**Required**: ALL profiles MUST use structured JSON with `extraction_agent: "claude-opus-4.5"`. Raw content dumps are NOT acceptable.
**See**: `.opencode/PERSON_ENTITY_PROFILE_FORMAT_RULE.md` for complete documentation
---
### Rule 21: Data Fabrication is Strictly Prohibited
🚨 **CRITICAL**: ALL DATA MUST BE REAL AND VERIFIABLE. Fabricating any data is strictly prohibited.
**❌ FORBIDDEN**:
- Creating fake names, job titles, companies
- Inventing education history or skills
- Generating placeholder data when extraction fails
- Creating fictional LinkedIn URLs
**✅ ALLOWED**:
- Skip profiles that cannot be extracted
- Return `null` or empty fields for missing data
- Mark profiles with `extraction_error: true`
- Log why extraction failed
**See**: `.opencode/DATA_FABRICATION_PROHIBITION.md` for complete documentation
---
### Rule 22: Custodian YAML Files Are the Single Source of Truth
🚨 **CRITICAL**: `data/custodian/*.yaml` is the SINGLE SOURCE OF TRUTH for all enrichment data.
**Data Hierarchy**:
```
data/custodian/*.yaml ← SINGLE SOURCE OF TRUTH
Ducklake → PostgreSQL → TypeDB → Oxigraph → Qdrant
(All databases are DERIVED - never add data independently)
REST API → Frontend (both DERIVED)
```
**Workflow**: FETCH → VALIDATE → WRITE TO YAML → Import to database → Verify
**See**: `.opencode/CUSTODIAN_DATA_SOURCE_OF_TRUTH.md` for complete documentation
---
### Rule 23: Social Media Link Validation - No Generic Links
🚨 **CRITICAL**: Social media links MUST be institution-specific, NOT generic platform homepages.
**Invalid**: `facebook.com/`, `facebook.com/facebook`, `twitter.com/twitter`
**Valid**: `facebook.com/rijksmuseum/`, `twitter.com/rijksmuseum`
**See**: `.opencode/SOCIAL_MEDIA_LINK_VALIDATION.md` for complete documentation
---
### Rule 24: Unused Import Investigation - Check Before Removing
🚨 **CRITICAL**: Before removing unused imports, INVESTIGATE whether they indicate incomplete implementations.
**Checklist**:
1. Was it recently used? (`git log -p --all -S 'ImportName'`)
2. Is there a TODO/FIXME?
3. Pattern mismatch (old vs new syntax)?
4. Incomplete feature?
5. Conditional usage (`TYPE_CHECKING` blocks)?
**See**: `.opencode/UNUSED_IMPORT_INVESTIGATION_RULE.md` for complete documentation
---
### Rule 25: Digital Platform Discovery Enrichment
🚨 **CRITICAL**: Every heritage custodian MUST be enriched with digital platform discovery data.
**Discover**: Collection management systems, discovery portals, external integrations, APIs
**Required Provenance**: `retrieval_agent`, `retrieval_timestamp`, `source_url`, `xpath_base`, `html_file`
**See**: `.opencode/DIGITAL_PLATFORM_DISCOVERY_RULE.md` for complete documentation
---
### Rule 26: Person Data Provenance - Web Claims for Staff Information
🚨 **CRITICAL**: All person/staff data MUST have web claim provenance with verifiable sources.
**Required Fields**: `claim_type`, `claim_value`, `source_url`, `retrieved_on`, `retrieval_agent`
**Recommended**: `xpath`, `xpath_match_score`
**See**: `.opencode/PERSON_DATA_PROVENANCE_RULE.md` for complete documentation
---
### Rule 27: Person-Custodian Data Architecture
🚨 **CRITICAL**: Person entity files are the SINGLE SOURCE OF TRUTH for all person data.
**In Person Entity File**: `extraction_metadata`, `profile_data`, `web_claims`, `affiliations`
**In Custodian YAML**: `person_id`, `person_name`, `role_title`, `affiliation_provenance`, `linkedin_profile_path` (reference only)
**NEVER**: Put `web_claims` in custodian YAML files
**See**: `.opencode/PERSON_CUSTODIAN_DATA_ARCHITECTURE.md` for complete documentation
---
### Rule 28: Web Claims Deduplication - No Redundant Claims
🚨 **CRITICAL**: Do not duplicate claims unless genuine variation exists with uncertainty.
**Eliminate**: Favicon variants, same value from different extractions, dynamic content
**Document**: Removed claims in `removed_claims` section for audit trail
**See**: `.opencode/WEB_CLAIMS_DEDUPLICATION_RULE.md` for complete documentation
---
### Rule 29: Anonymous Profile Name Derivation from LinkedIn Slugs
🚨 **CRITICAL**: Names CAN be derived from hyphenated LinkedIn slugs - this is data transformation, NOT fabrication.
**Dutch Particles**: Keep lowercase when not first word (van, de, den, der)
**Known Compound Slugs**: Use mapping for `jponjee` → "J. Ponjee", etc.
**See**: `.opencode/ANONYMOUS_PROFILE_NAME_RULE.md` for complete documentation
---
### Rule 30: Person Profile Extraction Confidence Scoring
🚨 **CRITICAL**: Every enriched profile MUST have confidence score (0.50-0.95) for data extraction quality.
**Distinct from**: Heritage sector relevance score (different purpose)
**Scoring Factors**:
- Clear job title: +0.10 to +0.15
- Named institution: +0.05 to +0.10
- Privacy-abbreviated name: -0.15 to -0.20
- Intern/trainee: -0.10
**See**: `.opencode/PERSON_PROFILE_CONFIDENCE_SCORING.md` for complete documentation
---
### Rule 31: Organizational Subdivision Extraction
🚨 **CRITICAL**: ALWAYS capture organizational subdivisions as structured data.
**Types**: department, team, unit, division, section, lab_or_center, office
**Store in**: `affiliations[].subdivision` with `type`, `name`, `parent_subdivision`, `extraction_source`
**See**: `.opencode/ORGANIZATIONAL_SUBDIVISION_EXTRACTION.md` for complete documentation
---
### Rule 32: Government Ministries Are Heritage Custodians (Type O)
🚨 **CRITICAL**: Government ministries ARE heritage custodians due to statutory record-keeping obligations.
**Heritage Relevance Scores**:
| Role Category | Score Range |
|---------------|-------------|
| Records Management | 0.40-0.50 |
| IT/Systems (records) | 0.30-0.40 |
| Policy/Advisory | 0.25-0.35 |
| Administrative | 0.15-0.25 |
**See**: `.opencode/GOVERNMENT_MINISTRY_HERITAGE_RULE.md` for complete documentation
---
### Rule 33: GHCID Collision Duplicate Detection
🚨 **CRITICAL**: Duplicate detection is MANDATORY in GHCID collision resolution.
**Decision Matrix**:
- ALL details match → DUPLICATE (keep earliest, archive later)
- Same name, different city → NOT DUPLICATE (keep both, add suffix)
- Same name, same city, different Wikidata IDs → NOT DUPLICATE
- When in doubt → Keep both files (can merge later)
**See**: `.opencode/GHCID_COLLISION_DUPLICATE_DETECTION.md` for complete documentation
---
### Rule 34: Linkup is the Preferred Web Scraper
🚨 **CRITICAL**: Use Linkup as primary web scraper. Firecrawl credits are limited.
**Tool Priority**:
| Priority | Tool | When to Use |
|----------|------|-------------|
| 1st | `linkup_linkup-search` | General research, finding pages |
| 2nd | `linkup_linkup-fetch` | Fetching known URL |
| 3rd | `firecrawl_*` | Only when Linkup fails |
| 4th | `playwright_*` | Interactive pages, HTML archival |
**Two-Phase for XPath Provenance** (Rule 6 compliance):
1. Linkup for discovery
2. Playwright for archival with XPath extraction
**See**: `.opencode/LINKUP_PREFERRED_WEB_SCRAPER_RULE.md` for complete documentation
---
### Rule 35: Provenance Statements MUST Have Dual Timestamps
🚨 **CRITICAL**: Every provenance statement MUST include at least TWO timestamps to distinguish when the claim was created from when the source was archived.
**MANDATORY Timestamps**:
| Timestamp | Purpose | Example |
|-----------|---------|---------|
| `statement_created_at` | When the claim/annotation was extracted/created | `2025-12-30T14:30:00Z` |
| `source_archived_at` | When the source material was archived/captured | `2025-12-29T10:15:00Z` |
**Optional (Encouraged)**:
- `source_created_at` - When the original source content was published
- `source_last_modified_at` - When the source content was last updated
- `last_verified_at` - When the claim was last re-verified
- `next_verification_due` - When the claim should be re-verified
**Example - CORRECT (Dual Timestamps)**:
```yaml
provenance:
statement_created_at: "2025-12-30T14:30:00Z" # When we extracted this claim
source_archived_at: "2025-12-29T10:15:00Z" # When we archived the webpage
source_created_at: "2022-07-15T00:00:00Z" # Optional: article publish date
```
**Example - WRONG (Single Timestamp)**:
```yaml
# INVALID - Only one timestamp, vague agent
extraction_provenance:
timestamp: '2025-11-06T08:02:44Z' # Which timestamp is this?!
agent: claude-conversation # Too vague - which model?
```
**Agent Identifier Standards**:
| ❌ Invalid | ✅ Valid |
|------------|----------|
| `claude-conversation` | `opencode-claude-sonnet-4` |
| `claude` | `opencode-claude-opus-4` |
| `ai` | `batch-script-python-3.11` |
| `opencode` | `manual-human-curator` |
**Validation Rule**: `source_archived_at` MUST be ≤ `statement_created_at` (source archived before/when statement created)
**Migration Note**: 24,328 files in `data/custodian/` with `agent: claude-conversation` require migration to dual timestamp format.
**See**: `.opencode/PROVENANCE_TIMESTAMP_RULES.md` for complete documentation
---
### Rule 36: Original Language Preservation in Web Content Extraction
🚨 **CRITICAL**: ALL extracted text content MUST be preserved in its original source language. Translation is STRICTLY FORBIDDEN during extraction.
**Applies to**:
- Mission statements
- Vision statements
- Organizational descriptions
- About us content
- Historical narratives
- Collection descriptions
- Any textual content extracted from institutional websites
**Rationale**:
1. **Emic Authenticity** - The institution's own voice and terminology must be preserved
2. **Semantic Fidelity** - Translation introduces interpretation and potential distortion
3. **Provenance Integrity** - Translated content breaks XPath provenance and content hash verification
4. **Downstream Flexibility** - Original content allows users to request translations in their preferred language
**Required Fields**:
```yaml
mission_statement:
text: "Het Rijksmuseum is het museum van Nederland..." # Original Dutch
language: "nl" # ISO 639-1 code
source_url: "https://www.rijksmuseum.nl/nl/over-ons"
extracted_verbatim: true # Confirms no translation occurred
```
**LLM Prompt Requirements**:
All LLM prompts for content extraction MUST include explicit no-translation instructions:
```
CRITICAL: Extract the text EXACTLY as it appears on the webpage.
DO NOT TRANSLATE. Preserve the original language.
If the source is in Dutch, the output must be in Dutch.
If the source is in Spanish, the output must be in Spanish.
```
**Anti-Patterns (FORBIDDEN)**:
| Scenario | Status |
|----------|--------|
| Translate Dutch → English during extraction | ❌ FORBIDDEN |
| Store English text with Dutch `source_url` | ❌ FORBIDDEN |
| Mix languages in extracted content | ❌ FORBIDDEN |
| Omit `language` field | ❌ FORBIDDEN |
**Validation Checklist**:
- [ ] Text is in original source language
- [ ] `language` field matches content language
- [ ] `language` matches expected from GHCID (or mismatch documented)
- [ ] `extracted_verbatim: true` is set
**See**: `.opencode/ORIGINAL_LANGUAGE_PRESERVATION_RULE.md` for complete documentation including language-specific LLM prompts
---
### Rule 37: Specificity Score Annotations for LinkML Classes
🚨 **CRITICAL**: Every LinkML class MUST have specificity score annotations to enable intelligent RAG retrieval filtering and UML visualization.
**Annotation Format**:
```yaml
classes:
ClassName:
annotations:
specificity_score: 0.75 # Required: 0.0-1.0
specificity_rationale: "..." # Required: Why this score
template_specificity: # Optional: Template-specific scores
archive_search: 0.95
museum_search: 0.20
```
**Score Semantics** (LOWER = more broadly relevant):
| Score Range | Meaning | Examples |
|-------------|---------|----------|
| 0.00-0.20 | Universal | `HeritageCustodian`, `Location` |
| 0.20-0.40 | Broadly useful | `Collection`, `Identifier` |
| 0.40-0.60 | Moderately specific | `ChangeEvent`, `PersonProfile` |
| 0.60-0.80 | Fairly specific | `Archive`, `Museum`, `Library` |
| 0.80-1.00 | Highly specific | `LinkedInConnectionExtraction` |
**10 Conversation Templates** for `template_specificity`:
- `archive_search`, `museum_search`, `library_search`
- `collection_discovery`, `person_research`, `location_browse`
- `identifier_lookup`, `organizational_change`, `digital_platform`
- `general_heritage` (fallback - uses `specificity_score` directly)
**Validation Rules**:
1. Score must be in range [0.0, 1.0]
2. Rationale must not be empty
3. Child class score must be ≥ parent class score (inheritance consistency)
**Use Cases**:
- **RAG Retrieval**: Filter schema classes by relevance to user query
- **UML Visualization**: Generate focused diagrams showing only relevant classes
- **Context Management**: Reduce token usage by excluding low-relevance classes
**See**: `.opencode/rules/specificity-score-convention.md` for complete documentation
---
### Rule 38: Slot Centralization and Semantic URI Requirements
🚨 **CRITICAL**: All LinkML slots MUST be centralized in `schemas/20251121/linkml/modules/slots/` and MUST have semantically sound `slot_uri` predicates from base ontologies.
**Key Requirements**:
1. **Centralization**: All slots MUST be defined in `modules/slots/`, never inline in class files
2. **slot_uri**: Every slot MUST have a `slot_uri` from base ontologies (`data/ontology/`)
3. **Mappings**: Use `exact_mappings`, `close_mappings`, `related_mappings`, `narrow_mappings`, `broad_mappings` for additional semantic relationships
**Why This Matters**:
- **Frontend UML visualization** depends on centralized slots for edge rendering
- **Semantic URIs** enable linked data interoperability and RDF serialization
- **Mapping annotations** connect to SKOS-based vocabulary alignment standards
**Common slot_uri Sources**:
| Ontology | Prefix | Example Predicates |
|----------|--------|-------------------|
| SKOS | `skos:` | `prefLabel`, `altLabel`, `definition`, `note` |
| Schema.org | `schema:` | `name`, `description`, `url`, `dateCreated` |
| Dublin Core | `dcterms:` | `identifier`, `title`, `creator`, `date` |
| PROV-O | `prov:` | `wasGeneratedBy`, `wasAttributedTo`, `atTime` |
| RiC-O | `rico:` | `hasRecordSetType`, `isOrWasPartOf` |
| CIDOC-CRM | `crm:` | `P1_is_identified_by`, `P2_has_type` |
**Workflow for New Slots**:
1. Search `data/ontology/` for existing predicate
2. Create file in `modules/slots/` with `slot_uri`
3. Add mappings to related predicates in other ontologies
4. Update `manifest.json` with new slot file
**See**: `.opencode/rules/slot-centralization-and-semantic-uri-rule.md` for complete documentation

### Rule 39: Slot Naming Convention (RiC-O Style)
🚨 **CRITICAL**: LinkML slots representing relational predicates MUST follow RiC-O-style naming conventions to express temporal semantics accurately.
**Core Naming Patterns**:
| Pattern | Use Case | Examples |
|---------|----------|----------|
| `hasOrHad*` | Temporal relationship (active voice) | `hasOrHadHolder`, `hasOrHadPart`, `hasOrHadType` |
| `isOrWas*` | Temporal relationship (inverse) | `isOrWasPartOf`, `isOrWasMemberOf`, `isOrWasHolderOf` |
| `has*` | Permanent/immutable facts | `hasBeginningDate`, `hasBirthPlace`, `hasIdentifier` |
| `*Transitive` | Hierarchical (through chain) | `isIncludedInTransitive` |
| `directly*` | Hierarchical (immediate only) | `directlyIncludes`, `isDirectlyIncludedIn` |
**Semantic Distinction: Hierarchy vs Association**:
🚨 The same slot name can mask **different semantics**. Always analyze intent:
| Category | Semantic | Pattern | Ontology |
|----------|----------|---------|----------|
| **Organizational Hierarchy** | "This org is part of that org" | RiC-O `isOrWas*` / `hasOrHad*` | RiC-O |
| **Event Association** | "This event happened to that entity" | PROV-O `wasAssociatedWith` | PROV-O |
**Example**: The deprecated `parent_custodian` was used for TWO different semantics:
- `CustodianLegalStatus.parent_custodian`**Hierarchy** → Now: `is_or_was_suborganization_of`
- `OrganizationalChangeEvent.parent_custodian`**Event association** → Now: `associated_custodian`
**Migration Mapping** (Key Slots):
| Deprecated | Replacement | Pattern |
|------------|-------------|---------|
| `parent_custodian` (hierarchy) | `is_or_was_suborganization_of` | RiC-O |
| `parent_custodian` (event) | `associated_custodian` | PROV-O |
| `has_suborganization` | `has_or_had_suborganization` | RiC-O |
| `parent_collection` | `is_or_was_sub_collection_of` | RiC-O |
| `sub_collections` | `has_or_had_sub_collection` | RiC-O |
| `has_collection` | `has_or_had_collection` | RiC-O |
| `encompassing_body` | `is_or_was_encompassed_by` | RiC-O |
| `has_member` | `has_or_had_member` | RiC-O |
| `is_member_of` | `is_or_was_member_of` | RiC-O |
**Decision Tree**:
```
Is relationship about organizational structure?
├─ YES (child → parent) → isOrWas{Relationship}Of
├─ YES (parent → children) → hasOrHad{Relationship}
└─ NO (event → entity affected) → associated_custodian (PROV-O)
```
**LinkML Slot Naming**: Convert RiC-O predicates to snake_case:
- `rico:hasOrHadPart``has_or_had_part`
- `rico:isOrWasPartOf``is_or_was_part_of`
**See**: `.opencode/rules/slot-naming-convention-rico-style.md` for complete documentation
---
### Rule 40: KIEN Registry is Authoritative for Intangible Heritage Custodians
🚨 **CRITICAL**: For Intangible Heritage Custodians (Type I), the KIEN registry at `https://www.immaterieelerfgoed.nl/` is **TIER_1_AUTHORITATIVE**. Google Maps is **TIER_3_CROWD_SOURCED** and frequently returns false matches.
**Why Google Maps Fails for Type I**:
- Virtual organizations without commercial storefronts
- Name collisions with unrelated businesses (e.g., "Platform" → "Platform 9 BV")
- No physical Google Maps presence for intangible heritage networks
- Volunteer-run organizations with residential addresses
**Data Tier Hierarchy for Type I**:
| Priority | Source | Data Tier |
|----------|--------|-----------|
| 1st | KIEN Registry (`immaterieelerfgoed.nl`) | TIER_1_AUTHORITATIVE |
| 2nd | Organization's Official Website | TIER_2_VERIFIED |
| 3rd | Wikidata | TIER_3_CROWD_SOURCED |
| 4th | Google Maps | TIER_3_CROWD_SOURCED (verify!) |
**Required Workflow**:
1. **Scrape KIEN page first** - Extract address from Contact section
2. **Validate Google Maps** - Compare domain/name against KIEN data
3. **Mark false matches** - Set `status: FALSE_MATCH` with documentation
**Marking False Matches**:
```yaml
google_maps_enrichment:
status: FALSE_MATCH
false_match_reason: "Google Maps returned different organization"
original_false_match:
place_id: ChIJ...
name: "Wrong Business Name"
website: "http://wrong-domain.nl/"
correction_timestamp: "2025-01-08T00:00:00Z"
```
**Location Resolution**: Use KIEN address → Geocode with Nominatim → NOT Google Maps coordinates
**See**: `.opencode/rules/kien-authoritative-source-rule.md` for complete documentation
---
### Rule 41: LinkML "Types" Classes Define SPARQL Template Variables
🚨 **CRITICAL**: LinkML classes following the `*Type` / `*Types` naming pattern (Rule 0b) serve as the **single source of truth** for valid values in SPARQL template slot variables.
When designing SPARQL templates, **extract variables from the schema** rather than hardcoding separate templates for each institution type or geographic level.
**Why This Matters**:
- Same template works across ALL institution types (musea, archieven, bibliotheken, etc.)
- Same template works across ALL geographic levels (country, subregion, settlement)
- Adding new types to schema automatically extends template capabilities
- Multilingual support comes for free from schema labels
**Template Variable Sources**:
| Variable | Schema Source | Examples |
|----------|---------------|----------|
| `institution_type` | `CustodianType` + 19 subclasses | M (Museum), A (Archive), L (Library) |
| `location` | Hierarchical: Country/Subregion/Settlement | NL, NL-NH, Amsterdam |
| `platform_type` | `DigitalPlatformTypes.yaml` (69+ types) | DigitalLibrary, Aggregator |
**Template Design Pattern**:
```yaml
# CORRECT: Single parameterized template
count_institutions_by_type_location:
slots:
institution_type:
schema_source: "modules/classes/CustodianType.yaml"
location:
resolution_order: [settlement, subregion, country]
# SlotExtractor detects level and selects appropriate SPARQL variant
sparql_template: |
SELECT (COUNT(?s) AS ?count) WHERE {
?s hc:institutionType "{{ institution_type }}" ;
hc:settlementName "{{ location }}" .
}
sparql_template_region: |
SELECT (COUNT(?s) AS ?count) WHERE {
?s hc:institutionType "{{ institution_type }}" ;
hc:subregionCode "{{ location }}" .
}
```
**SlotExtractor Responsibilities**:
1. **Detect institution type** from query: "musea" → M, "archieven" → A
2. **Detect location level**: "Amsterdam" → settlement, "Noord-Holland" → subregion
3. **Normalize values**: "Noord-Holland" → "NL-NH"
**See**: `.opencode/rules/types-classes-as-template-variables.md` for complete documentation
---
### Rule 42: No Ontology Prefixes in Slot Names
🚨 **CRITICAL**: LinkML slot names MUST NOT include ontology namespace prefixes. Ontology references belong in mapping properties (`slot_uri`, `exact_mappings`, `close_mappings`, etc.), NOT in element names.
**Why This Matters**:
- Slot names should be human-readable, domain-focused terminology
- Ontology mappings are documented via LinkML's dedicated mapping properties
- Embedding prefixes creates coupling between naming and specific ontology versions
- Clean separation allows renaming slots without changing ontology bindings
**Prohibited Prefixes**:
| Prefix | Ontology | Example Violation |
|--------|----------|-------------------|
| `rico_` | Records in Contexts | `rico_organizational_principle` |
| `skos_` | SKOS | `skos_broader`, `skos_narrower` |
| `schema_` | Schema.org | `schema_name` |
| `dcterms_` | Dublin Core | `dcterms_created` |
| `prov_` | PROV-O | `prov_generated_by` |
| `org_` | W3C Organization | `org_has_member` |
| `crm_` | CIDOC-CRM | `crm_carried_out_by` |
| `foaf_` | FOAF | `foaf_knows` |
**Correct Pattern**:
```yaml
# CORRECT: Clean name with ontology reference in slot_uri and mappings
slots:
record_holder:
description: The custodian that holds or held this record set.
slot_uri: rico:hasOrHadHolder
exact_mappings:
- rico:hasOrHadHolder
close_mappings:
- schema:holdingArchive
range: Custodian
```
**WRONG Pattern**:
```yaml
# WRONG: Ontology prefix embedded in slot name
slots:
rico_has_or_had_holder: # BAD - "rico_" prefix duplicates slot_uri info
slot_uri: rico:hasOrHadHolder
range: string
```
**Exceptions**:
- **External identifier slots**: `wikidata_id`, `viaf_id`, `isil_code` (system names, not ontology prefixes)
- **Internal technical slots**: `internal_wd_namespace_force` (prefixed with `internal_`)
**See**: `.opencode/rules/no-ontology-prefix-in-slot-names.md` for complete documentation and migration examples
---
### Rule 43: Slot Nouns Must Be Singular
🚨 **CRITICAL**: LinkML slot names MUST use singular nouns, even for multivalued slots. The `multivalued: true` property indicates cardinality, NOT the slot name.
**Rationale**:
1. **Predicate semantics**: Slots represent predicates/relationships. In RDF, `hasCollection` can have multiple objects without changing the predicate name.
2. **Consistency**: Singular names work for both single-valued and multivalued slots.
3. **Ontology alignment**: Standard ontologies use singular predicates (`skos:broader`, `org:hasMember`, `rico:hasOrHadHolder`).
4. **Readability**: `custodian.has_or_had_custodian_type` reads naturally as "custodian has (or had) custodian type".
**Correct Pattern**:
```yaml
slots:
has_or_had_custodian_type: # ✅ CORRECT - singular noun
slot_uri: org:classification
range: CustodianType
multivalued: true # Cardinality expressed here, not in name
has_or_had_collection: # ✅ CORRECT - singular noun
range: CustodianCollection
multivalued: true
has_or_had_member: # ✅ CORRECT - singular noun
range: Custodian
multivalued: true
```
**WRONG Pattern**:
```yaml
slots:
has_or_had_custodian_types: # ❌ WRONG - plural noun
multivalued: true
collections: # ❌ WRONG - plural noun
multivalued: true
```
**Migration Examples**:
| Old (Plural) | New (Singular) |
|--------------|----------------|
| `custodian_types` | `has_or_had_custodian_type` |
| `collections` | `has_or_had_collection` |
| `identifiers` | `identifier` |
| `alternative_names` | `alternative_name` |
| `staff_members` | `staff_member` |
**Exceptions** (compound concepts where plural is part of the proper noun):
- `archives_regionales` - French administrative term
- `united_states` - Geographic proper noun
**See**: `.opencode/rules/slot-noun-singular-convention.md` for complete documentation
---
### Rule 44: PPID Birth Date Enrichment and EDTF Unknown Date Notation
🚨 **CRITICAL**: When birth/death dates are missing from person entity sources, agents MUST first attempt enrichment via web search. Only after comprehensive search fails should EDTF unknown notation be used.
**Enrichment Workflow**:
1. Search Exa: `"{full_name}" born birthday birth date`
2. Search Linkup: `"{name}" biography`
3. If found → Record as `web_claim` with provenance
4. If NOT found → Use EDTF notation with `enrichment_metadata` recording the failed search
**EDTF Notation (Library of Congress Standard)**:
| Character | Meaning | Example |
|-----------|---------|---------|
| `X` | Unspecified digit | `197X` = some year 1970-1979 |
| `~` | Approximate (circa) | `1985~` = circa 1985 |
| `?` | Uncertain | `1985?` = possibly 1985 |
| `S` | Significant digits | `1975S3` = estimated 1975, accurate to decade |
| `[..]` | One of set | `[197X,198X]` = 1970s or 1980s |
**Common Patterns**:
| Scenario | EDTF Format |
|----------|-------------|
| Decade known (1970s) | `197X` |
| Century known (1900s) | `19XX` |
| Completely unknown | `XXXX` |
| Multiple possible decades | `[197X,198X]` |
| Estimated from career | `1975S3` |
**Filename Safety**: PPID filenames must avoid `?`, `%`, `[]`, `/`, `|`. Use simplified form in filename, full EDTF in metadata.
**Anti-Patterns**:
-`"1970s"` - Use `197X` instead
-`"circa 1985"` - Use `1985~` instead
-`"unknown"` - Use `XXXX` instead
- ❌ Custom notation like `197~8~` - Not EDTF compliant
**Validation**:
- Cannot use `XXXX` without `enrichment_metadata.birth_date_search.attempted: true`
- All dates must parse as valid EDTF
**See**: `.opencode/rules/ppid-birth-date-enrichment-rule.md` for complete documentation
---
### Rule 45: Inferred Data Must Be Explicit with Provenance
🚨 **CRITICAL**: All inferred data MUST be stored in explicit `inferred_*` fields with full provenance statements. Inferred values MUST NEVER silently replace or merge with verified data.
**Required Inferred Fields** (for person profiles):
| Inferred Field | Source Observations | Heuristic |
|----------------|---------------------|-----------|
| `inferred_birth_decade` | Earliest education/job dates | Entry age assumptions |
| `inferred_birth_settlement` | School/university location | Residential proximity |
| `inferred_current_settlement` | Profile location, current job | Direct extraction |
**Required Structure**:
```json
{
"inferred_birth_decade": {
"value": "196X",
"edtf": "196X",
"confidence": "low",
"inference_provenance": {
"method": "earliest_education_heuristic",
"inference_chain": [
{"step": 1, "observation": "University start 1986", "source_field": "profile_data.education[0]"},
{"step": 2, "assumption": "University entry at age 18", "rationale": "Dutch standard"},
{"step": 3, "calculation": "1986 - 18 = 1968", "result": "Birth year ~1968"},
{"step": 4, "generalization": "Round to decade", "result": "196X"}
],
"inferred_at": "2025-01-09T18:00:00Z",
"inferred_by": "enrich_ppids.py"
}
}
}
```
**Anti-Patterns**:
- ❌ Silent replacement: Putting inferred value directly in `birth_date.edtf` without marking it as inferred
- ❌ Hidden metadata: Separating inference flag from the value
- ❌ Missing chain: Not documenting HOW the value was derived
**PPID Component Tracking**:
```json
{
"ppid_components": {
"first_date": "196X",
"first_date_source": "inferred_birth_decade",
"first_location": "NL-UT-UTR",
"first_location_source": "inferred_birth_settlement"
}
}
```
**List-Valued Inferred Data** (EDTF Set Notation):
When inference yields multiple plausible values (e.g., decade boundary cases), store as a list:
```json
{
"inferred_birth_decade": {
"values": ["196X", "197X"],
"edtf": "[196X,197X]",
"primary_value": "196X",
"primary_rationale": "1965 is in 196X, but range extends into 197X",
"confidence": "very_low"
}
}
```
For PPID generation, use `primary_value`:
- `first_date_source: "inferred_birth_decade.primary_value"`
- `first_date_alternatives: ["197X"]`
**See**: `.opencode/rules/inferred-data-explicit-provenance-rule.md` for complete documentation

## Appendix: Full Rule Content (No .opencode Equivalent)
The following rules have no separate .opencode file and are preserved in full:
### Rule 2: Wikidata Entities Are NOT Ontology Classes
**Files**:
- `data/wikidata/GLAMORCUBEPSXHFN/hyponyms_curated.yaml`
- `data/wikidata/GLAMORCUBEPSXHFN/hyponyms_curated_full.yaml`
**These files contain**:
- ✅ Wikidata entity identifiers (Q-numbers) for heritage institution TYPES
- ✅ Multilingual labels and descriptions
- ✅ Hypernym classifications (upper-level categories)
- ✅ Source data for ontology mapping analysis
**These files DO NOT contain**:
- ❌ Formal ontology class definitions
- ❌ Direct `class_uri` mappings for LinkML
- ❌ Ontology properties or relationships
**REQUIRED WORKFLOW**:
```
hyponyms_curated.yaml (Wikidata Q-numbers)
ANALYZE semantic meaning + hypernyms
SEARCH base ontologies for matching classes
MAP Wikidata entity → Ontology class(es)
DOCUMENT rationale + properties
CREATE LinkML schema with ontology class_uri
```
**Example - WRONG** ❌:
```yaml
Mansion:
class_uri: wd:Q1802963 # ← This is an ENTITY, not a CLASS!
```
**Example - CORRECT** ✅:
```yaml
Mansion:
# Wikidata source: Q1802963
place_aspect:
class_uri: crm:E27_Site # CIDOC-CRM ontology class
custodian_aspect:
class_uri: cpov:PublicOrganisation # If operates as museum
```
### Rule 3: Multi-Aspect Modeling is Mandatory
**Every heritage entity has MULTIPLE ontological aspects with INDEPENDENT temporal lifecycles.**
**Required Aspects**:
1. **Place Aspect** (physical location/site)
- Ontology: `crm:E27_Site` + `schema:Place`
- Temporal: Construction → Demolition/Present
2. **Custodian Aspect** (organization managing heritage)
- Ontology: `cpov:PublicOrganisation` OR `schema:Organization`
- Temporal: Founding → Dissolution/Present
3. **Legal Form Aspect** (legal entity registration)
- Ontology: `org:FormalOrganization` + `tooi:Overheidsorganisatie` (Dutch)
- Temporal: Registration → Deregistration/Present
4. **Collections Aspect** (heritage materials)
- Ontology: `rico:RecordSet` OR `crm:E78_Curated_Holding` OR `bf:Collection`
- Temporal: Accession → Deaccession (per item)
5. **People Aspect** (staff, curators)
- Ontology: `pico:PersonObservation` + `crm:E21_Person`
- Temporal: Employment start → Employment end (per person)
6. **Temporal Events** (organizational changes)
- Ontology: `crm:E10_Transfer_of_Custody`, `rico:Event`
- Tracks custody transfers, mergers, relocations, transformations
**Example**: A historic mansion operating as a museum has:
- **Place aspect**: Building constructed 1880, still standing (143 years)
- **Custodian aspect**: Foundation established 1994 to operate museum (30 years)
- **Legal form**: Dutch stichting registered 1994, KvK #12345678
- **Collections**: Mondrian artworks acquired 1994-2024
- **People**: Current curator employed 2020-present
**Each aspect changes independently over time!**
### Rule 5: NEVER Delete Enriched Data - Additive Only
**🚨 CRITICAL: Data enrichment is ADDITIVE ONLY. Never delete or overwrite existing enriched content.**
When restructuring or updating enriched institution records:
**✅ ALLOWED (Additive Operations)**:
- Add new fields or sections
- Restructure YAML/JSON layout while preserving all content
- Rename files (e.g., `_unknown.yaml``_museum_name.yaml`)
- Add provenance metadata
- Merge data from multiple sources (preserving all)
**❌ FORBIDDEN (Destructive Operations)**:
- Delete Google Maps data (reviews, ratings, photo counts, popular times)
- Remove OpenStreetMap metadata
- Overwrite website scrape results
- Delete Wikidata enrichment data
- Remove any `*_enrichment` sections
- Truncate or summarize detailed content
**Data Types That Must NEVER Be Deleted**:
| Data Source | Protected Fields |
|-------------|------------------|
| **Google Maps** | `reviews`, `rating`, `total_ratings`, `photo_count`, `popular_times`, `place_id`, `business_status` |
| **OpenStreetMap** | `osm_id`, `osm_type`, `osm_tags`, `amenity`, `building`, `heritage` |
| **Wikidata** | `wikidata_id`, `claims`, `sitelinks`, `aliases`, `descriptions` |
| **Website Scrape** | `organization_details`, `collections`, `exhibitions`, `contact`, `social_media`, `accessibility` |
| **ISIL Registry** | `isil_code`, `assigned_date`, `remarks` |
**Example - CORRECT Restructuring**:
```yaml
# BEFORE (flat structure)
google_maps_rating: 4.5
google_maps_reviews: 127
website_description: "Historic museum..."
# AFTER (nested structure) - ALL DATA PRESERVED
enrichment_sources:
google_maps:
rating: 4.5 # ← PRESERVED
reviews: 127 # ← PRESERVED
website:
description: "Historic museum..." # ← PRESERVED
```
**Example - WRONG (Data Loss)**:
```yaml
# BEFORE
google_maps_enrichment:
rating: 4.5
reviews: 127
popular_times: {...}
photos: [...]
# AFTER - WRONG! Data deleted!
enrichment_status: enriched
# Where did the rating, reviews, popular_times go?!
```
**Rationale**:
- Enriched data is expensive to collect (API calls, rate limits, web scraping)
- Google Maps data changes over time - historical snapshots are valuable
- Reviews and ratings provide quality signals for heritage institutions
- Photo metadata enables visual discovery and verification
- Deleting data violates data provenance principles
**If Unsure**: When restructuring files, first READ the entire file, then WRITE a new version that includes ALL original content in the new structure.

### Rule 6: WebObservation Claims MUST Have XPath Provenance
**Every claim extracted from a webpage MUST have an XPath pointer to the exact location in archived HTML where that value appears. Claims without XPath provenance are FABRICATED and must be removed.**
This is not about "confidence" or "uncertainty" - it's about **verifiability**. Either the claim value exists in the HTML at a specific XPath, or it was hallucinated/fabricated by an LLM.
**Required Fields for WebObservation Claims**:
| Field | Required | Description |
|-------|----------|-------------|
| `claim_type` | YES | Type of claim (full_name, description, email, etc.) |
| `claim_value` | YES | The extracted value |
| `source_url` | YES | URL the claim was extracted from |
| `retrieved_on` | YES | ISO 8601 timestamp when page was archived |
| `xpath` | YES | XPath to the element containing this value |
| `html_file` | YES | Relative path to archived HTML file |
| `xpath_match_score` | YES | 1.0 for exact match, <1.0 for fuzzy match |
**Example - CORRECT (Verifiable)**:
```yaml
web_enrichment:
claims:
- claim_type: full_name
claim_value: Historische Vereniging Nijeveen
source_url: https://historischeverenigingnijeveen.nl/
retrieved_on: "2025-11-29T12:28:00Z"
xpath: /[document][1]/html[1]/body[1]/div[6]/div[1]/table[3]/tbody[1]/tr[1]/td[1]/p[6]
html_file: web/0021/historischeverenigingnijeveen.nl/rendered.html
xpath_match_score: 1.0
```
**Example - WRONG (Fabricated - Must Be Removed)**:
```yaml
web_enrichment:
claims:
- claim_type: full_name
claim_value: Historische Vereniging Nijeveen
confidence: 0.95 # ← NO! This is meaningless without XPath
```
**Workflow**:
1. Archive website using Playwright: `python scripts/fetch_website_playwright.py <entry> <url>`
2. Add XPath provenance: `python scripts/add_xpath_provenance.py`
3. Script removes fabricated claims (stored in `removed_unverified_claims` for audit)
**See**:
- `.opencode/WEB_OBSERVATION_PROVENANCE_RULES.md` for complete documentation
- `schemas/20251121/linkml/modules/classes/WebClaim.yaml` for LinkML schema definition
**Scope Clarification**: This rule applies to `WebClaim` and `WebObservation` classes only. Other data classes have different provenance models:
- **CustodianTimelineEvent**: Source-agnostic design - use `extraction_notes` for API queries/XPaths, and `observation_ref` to link to WebObservation/CustodianObservation for detailed provenance. See `.opencode/PROVENANCE_SEPARATION_RULE.md`.
- **GoogleMapsEnrichment**: Uses Place ID and API response provenance.
- **WikidataEnrichment**: Uses entity ID and SPARQL query provenance.

## Project Overview
**Goal**: Extract structured data about worldwide GLAMORCUBESFIXPHDNT (Galleries, Libraries, Archives, Museums, Official institutions, Research centers, Corporations, Unknown, Botanical gardens/zoos, Educational providers, Societies, Features, Intangible heritage groups, miXed, Personal collections, Holy sites, Digital platforms, NGOs, Taste/smell heritage) institutions from 139+ Claude conversation JSON files and integrate with authoritative CSV datasets.
**Output**: Validated LinkML-compliant records representing heritage custodian organizations with provenance tracking, geographic data, identifiers, and relationship information.
**Schema**: See the modular LinkML schema v0.2.1 with 19-type GLAMORCUBESFIXPHDNT taxonomy described below.
## Schema Reference (v0.2.1)
The project uses a **modular LinkML schema** organized into 6 specialized modules:
1. **`schemas/heritage_custodian.yaml`** - Main schema (import-only structure)
- Top-level schema that imports all modules
- Defines schema metadata and namespace
2. **`schemas/core.yaml`** - Core Classes
- `HeritageCustodian` - Main institution entity
- `Location` - Geographic data
- `Identifier` - External identifiers (ISIL, Wikidata, VIAF, etc.)
- `DigitalPlatform` - Online systems and platforms
- `GHCID` - Global Heritage Custodian Identifier
3. **`schemas/enums.yaml`** - Enumerations
- `InstitutionTypeEnum` - 13 institution types (GALLERY, LIBRARY, ARCHIVE, MUSEUM, etc.)
- `ChangeTypeEnum` - 11 organizational change types (FOUNDING, MERGER, CLOSURE, etc.)
- `DataSource` - Data origin types (CSV_REGISTRY, CONVERSATION_NLP, etc.)
- `DataTier` - Data quality tiers (TIER_1_AUTHORITATIVE through TIER_4_INFERRED)
- `PlatformTypeEnum` - Digital platform categories
4. **`schemas/provenance.yaml`** - Provenance Tracking
- `Provenance` - Data source and quality metadata
- `ChangeEvent` - Organizational change history (mergers, relocations, etc.)
- `GHCIDHistoryEntry` - GHCID change tracking over time
5. **`schemas/collections.yaml`** - Collection Metadata
- `Collection` - Collection descriptions
- `Accession` - Acquisition records
- `DigitalObject` - Digital surrogates
6. **`schemas/dutch.yaml`** - Dutch-Specific Extensions
- `DutchHeritageCustodian` - Netherlands heritage institutions
- Extensions for ISIL registry, platform integrations, KvK numbers
See `/docs/SCHEMA_MODULES.md` for detailed architecture and design patterns.
## Base Ontologies for Global GLAM Data
**CRITICAL**: Before designing extraction pipelines or extending the schema, AI agents MUST consult the base ontologies that the LinkML schema builds upon. These ontologies provide standardized vocabularies and patterns for modeling heritage institutions.
### Foundation Ontologies
The GLAM project integrates with three primary ontologies, each serving different geographic and semantic scopes:
#### 1. TOOI - Dutch Government Organizational Ontology
**File**: `/data/ontology/tooiont.ttl`
**Namespace**: `https://identifier.overheid.nl/tooi/def/ont/`
**Scope**: Dutch heritage institutions (government archives, state museums, public cultural organizations)
**When to Use**:
- Extracting Dutch heritage institutions from conversations
- Modeling Dutch organizational change events (mergers, splits, reorganizations)
- Integrating with Dutch ISIL registry or KvK (Chamber of Commerce) data
- Parsing Dutch government heritage agency data
**Key Classes**:
- `tooi:Overheidsorganisatie` - Government organization (extends to `DutchHeritageCustodian`)
- `tooi:Wijzigingsgebeurtenis` - Change event (founding, merger, closure, relocation)
**Key Properties**:
- `tooi:officieleNaamInclSoort` - Official name including type
- `tooi:begindatum` / `tooi:einddatum` - Temporal validity (start/end dates)
- `tooi:organisatieIdentificatie` - Formal identifiers (ISIL codes, etc.)
**LinkML Mapping**:
```yaml
# schemas/dutch.yaml extends TOOI
DutchHeritageCustodian:
is_a: HeritageCustodian
class_uri: tooi:Overheidsorganisatie # ← Maps to TOOI
```
**Reference**: See `/docs/ONTOLOGY_EXTENSIONS.md` for complete TOOI integration patterns.
---
#### 2. CPOV - EU Core Public Organisation Vocabulary
**Files**:
- `/data/ontology/core-public-organisation-ap.ttl` (RDF schema)
- `/data/ontology/core-public-organisation-ap.jsonld` (JSON-LD context)
**Namespace**: `http://data.europa.eu/m8g/`
**Scope**: EU-wide and global public sector heritage organizations
**When to Use**:
- Extracting European heritage institutions (France, Germany, Belgium, etc.)
- Modeling international/global heritage organizations
- Aligning with EU Linked Open Data initiatives (Europeana, DPLA)
- Extracting non-Dutch institutions from conversations
**Key Classes**:
- `cpov:PublicOrganisation` - Public sector organization (base for `HeritageCustodian`)
- `cv:ChangeEvent` - Organizational change events
- `locn:Address` - Physical location data
**Key Properties**:
- `skos:prefLabel` / `skos:altLabel` - Preferred and alternative names
- `dct:identifier` - Formal identifiers (ISIL, Wikidata, VIAF)
- `dct:temporal` - Temporal coverage (founding to closure dates)
- `locn:address` - Physical addresses
**LinkML Mapping**:
```yaml
# schemas/core.yaml aligns with CPOV
HeritageCustodian:
class_uri: cpov:PublicOrganisation # ← Maps to CPOV
slots:
name:
slot_uri: skos:prefLabel
alternative_names:
slot_uri: skos:altLabel
identifiers:
slot_uri: dct:identifier
```

#### 3. Schema.org - Web Vocabulary for Structured Data
**File**: `/data/ontology/schemaorg.owl`
**Namespace**: `http://schema.org/`
**Scope**: Universal web semantics (museums, galleries, collections, events, learning resources)
**When to Use**:
- Extracting private collections or non-governmental organizations
- Modeling digital platforms (learning management systems, discovery portals)
- Web discoverability and SEO optimization
- Fallback when TOOI/CPOV don't apply
**Key Classes**:
- `schema:Museum` / `schema:Library` / `schema:ArchiveOrganization` - Heritage institution types
- `schema:Place` - Geographic locations
- `schema:LearningResource` - Educational platforms (LMS, online courses)
- `schema:Event` - Organizational events (founding, exhibitions)
**LinkML Mapping**:
```yaml
# schemas/enums.yaml maps platform types to Schema.org
DigitalPlatformTypeEnum:
LEARNING_MANAGEMENT:
meaning: schema:LearningResource # ← Maps to Schema.org
```
**Reference**: See `/docs/ONTOLOGY_EXTENSIONS.md` for Schema.org usage examples.

### Ontology Decision Tree for Agents
When extracting heritage institution data, choose the appropriate ontology:
```
START: Extract institution from conversation
Is the institution Dutch?
├─ YES → Use TOOI ontology
│ - Map to schemas/dutch.yaml
│ - Extract ISIL codes (NL-* format)
│ - Extract KvK numbers (8-digit)
│ - Model change events as tooi:Wijzigingsgebeurtenis
└─ NO → Is it a public/government organization?
├─ YES → Use CPOV ontology
│ - Map to schemas/core.yaml
│ - Extract standard identifiers (ISIL, Wikidata, VIAF)
│ - Model change events as cv:ChangeEvent
└─ NO → Use Schema.org
- Map to schemas/core.yaml
- Use schema:Museum, schema:Library, etc.
- Emphasize web discoverability
```
**Multi-Ontology Support**: Institutions can implement MULTIPLE ontology classes simultaneously:
```turtle
<https://w3id.org/heritage/custodian/nl/rijksmuseum>
a tooi:Overheidsorganisatie, # Dutch government organization
cpov:PublicOrganisation, # EU public sector
schema:Museum ; # Schema.org web semantics
```
---
### Required Ontology Consultation Workflow
**Before extracting data**, agents MUST perform these steps:
#### Step 1: Identify Institution Geographic Scope
```bash
# Determine which ontology applies
if institution_country == "NL":
primary_ontology = "TOOI"
ontology_file = "/data/ontology/tooiont.ttl"
elif institution_in_europe or institution_public_sector:
primary_ontology = "CPOV"
ontology_file = "/data/ontology/core-public-organisation-ap.ttl"
else:
primary_ontology = "Schema.org"
ontology_file = "/data/ontology/schemaorg.owl"
```
#### Step 2: Review Ontology Classes and Properties
**Search ontology files** for relevant classes:
```bash
# Dutch institutions - search TOOI
rg "tooi:Overheidsorganisatie|Wijzigingsgebeurtenis|begindatum" /data/ontology/tooiont.ttl
# EU/global institutions - search CPOV
rg "cpov:PublicOrganisation|cv:ChangeEvent|locn:Address" /data/ontology/core-public-organisation-ap.ttl
# All institutions - search Schema.org
rg "schema:Museum|schema:Library|schema:ArchiveOrganization" /data/ontology/schemaorg.owl
```
#### Step 3: Map Conversation Data to Ontology Properties
Create a mapping table before extraction:
| Extracted Field | TOOI Property | CPOV Property | Schema.org Property |
|-----------------|---------------|---------------|---------------------|
| Institution name | `tooi:officieleNaamInclSoort` | `skos:prefLabel` | `schema:name` |
| Alternative names | - | `skos:altLabel` | `schema:alternateName` |
| Founding date | `tooi:begindatum` | `schema:startDate` | `schema:foundingDate` |
| Closure date | `tooi:einddatum` | `schema:endDate` | `schema:dissolutionDate` |
| ISIL code | `tooi:organisatieIdentificatie` | `dct:identifier` | `schema:identifier` |
| Address | (use `locn:Address`) | `locn:address` | `schema:address` |
| Merger event | `tooi:Wijzigingsgebeurtenis` | `cv:ChangeEvent` | `schema:Event` |
| Website | - | `schema:url` | `schema:url` |
#### Step 4: Document Ontology Alignment in Provenance
**Always include** ontology references in extraction metadata:
```yaml
provenance:
data_source: CONVERSATION_NLP
extraction_method: "NLP extraction following CPOV ontology patterns"
base_ontology: "http://data.europa.eu/m8g/" # ← Document which ontology used
ontology_alignment:
- "cpov:PublicOrganisation"
- "cv:ChangeEvent"
extraction_date: "2025-11-09T..."
```
---
### Common Ontology Patterns
**Pattern 1: Organizational Change Events**
When extracting mergers, splits, relocations, name changes:
```yaml
# TOOI pattern (Dutch institutions)
change_history:
- event_id: https://w3id.org/heritage/custodian/event/nha-merger-2001
change_type: MERGER # Maps to tooi:Wijzigingsgebeurtenis
event_date: "2001-01-01"
event_description: "Merger of Gemeentearchief Haarlem and Rijksarchief in Noord-Holland"
ontology_class: "tooi:Wijzigingsgebeurtenis"
# CPOV pattern (EU/global institutions)
change_history:
- event_id: https://w3id.org/heritage/custodian/event/bnf-founding
change_type: FOUNDING # Maps to cv:ChangeEvent
event_date: "1461-01-01"
event_description: "Founded by King Louis XI as Royal Library"
ontology_class: "cv:ChangeEvent"
```
**Pattern 2: Multilingual Names**
CPOV and Schema.org support language-tagged literals:
```yaml
name: Bibliothèque nationale de France
alternative_names:
- National Library of France@en
- BnF@fr
- Französische Nationalbibliothek@de
# RDF serialization:
# skos:prefLabel "Bibliothèque nationale de France"@fr ;
# skos:altLabel "National Library of France"@en, "BnF"@fr ;
```
**Pattern 3: Hierarchical Relationships**
Use W3C Org Ontology patterns (integrated in CPOV):
```yaml
# Parent institution
parent_organization:
name: Ministry of Culture
relationship_type: "org:hasUnit" # CPOV uses W3C Org Ontology
# Branch institutions
branches:
- name: Regional Archive Noord-Brabant
relationship_type: "org:subOrganizationOf"
```
---
### Anti-Patterns to Avoid
** DON'T**: Invent custom properties when ontology equivalents exist
```yaml
# BAD - Custom property instead of ontology reuse
institution_official_name: "Rijksarchief" # Use skos:prefLabel instead!
```
** DON'T**: Ignore ontology namespace conventions
```yaml
# BAD - No ontology reference
change_type: "merger" # Use cv:ChangeEvent with proper namespace!
```
** DON'T**: Extract without reviewing ontology files
```bash
# BAD - Extracting Dutch institutions without reading TOOI
agent: "I'll extract Dutch archives using Schema.org only"
# This loses semantic precision and ignores domain-specific patterns!
```
** DO**: Always map to base ontologies and document alignment
```yaml
# GOOD - Ontology-aligned extraction
name: Rijksarchief in Noord-Holland
institution_type: ARCHIVE
ontology_class: tooi:Overheidsorganisatie # ← Documented
provenance:
base_ontology: "https://identifier.overheid.nl/tooi/def/ont/"
ontology_alignment:
- tooi:Overheidsorganisatie
- prov:Organization # TOOI uses PROV-O for temporal tracking
```
---
### Additional Ontology Resources
**CIDOC-CRM** (Cultural Heritage Domain):
- File: `/data/ontology/CIDOC_CRM_v7.1.3.rdf`
- Use for: Museum object cataloging, provenance, conservation
- Key classes: `crm:E74_Group` (organizations), `crm:E5_Event` (historical events)
**RiC-O** (Records in Contexts - Archival Description):
- Use for: Archival collections, fonds, series, items
- Key classes: `rico:CorporateBody`, `rico:RecordSet`
- Integration: Planned for future schema extension
**BIBFRAME** (Bibliographic Resources):
- Use for: Library catalogs, bibliographic metadata
- Key classes: `bf:Organization`, `bf:Work`, `bf:Instance`
- Integration: For library-specific extensions
**Reference Documentation**: See `/docs/ONTOLOGY_EXTENSIONS.md` for comprehensive integration patterns, RDF serialization examples, and extension workflows.

## Institution Type Taxonomy
The project uses a 19-type GLAMORCUBESFIXPHDNT taxonomy (expanded November 2025) with single-letter codes for GHCID identifier generation:
| Type | Code | Description | Example Use Cases |
|------|------|-------------|-------------------|
| **GALLERY** | G | Art gallery or exhibition space | Commercial galleries, kunsthallen |
| **LIBRARY** | L | Library (public, academic, specialized) | National libraries, university libraries |
| **ARCHIVE** | A | Archive (government, corporate, personal) | National archives, city archives |
| **MUSEUM** | M | Museum (art, history, science, etc.) | Rijksmuseum, natural history museums |
| **OFFICIAL_INSTITUTION** | O | Government heritage agencies | Provincial archives, heritage platforms |
| **RESEARCH_CENTER** | R | Research institutes and documentation centers | Knowledge centers, research libraries |
| **CORPORATION** | C | Corporate heritage collections | Company archives, corporate museums |
| **UNKNOWN** | U | Institution type cannot be determined | Ambiguous or unclassifiable organizations |
| **BOTANICAL_ZOO** | B | Botanical gardens and zoological parks | Arboreta, botanical gardens, zoos |
| **EDUCATION_PROVIDER** | E | Educational institutions with collections | Schools, training centers with heritage materials, universities |
| **COLLECTING_SOCIETY** | S | Societies collecting specialized materials | Numismatic societies, heritage societies (heemkundige kring) |
| **FEATURES** | F | Physical landscape features with heritage significance | Monuments, sculptures, statues, memorials, landmarks, cemeteries |
| **INTANGIBLE_HERITAGE_GROUP** | I | Organizations preserving intangible heritage | Traditional performance groups, oral history societies, folklore organizations |
| **MIXED** | X | Multiple types (uses X code) | Combined museum/archive facilities |
| **PERSONAL_COLLECTION** | P | Private personal collections | Individual collectors |
| **HOLY_SITES** | H | Religious heritage sites and institutions | Churches, temples, mosques, synagogues with collections |
| **DIGITAL_PLATFORM** | D | Digital heritage platforms and repositories | Online archives, digital libraries, virtual museums |
| **NGO** | N | Non-governmental heritage organizations | Heritage advocacy groups, preservation societies |
| **TASTE_SMELL** | T | Culinary and olfactory heritage institutions | Historic restaurants, parfumeries, distilleries preserving traditional recipes and formulations |
**Notes**:
- MIXED institutions use "X" as the GHCID code and document all actual types in metadata
- HOLY_SITES includes religious institutions managing cultural heritage collections (archives, libraries, artifacts)
- FEATURES includes physical monuments and landscape features with heritage value (not institutions maintaining collections)
- COLLECTING_SOCIETY includes historical societies (historische vereniging), philatelic societies, numismatic clubs, ephemera collectors
- OFFICIAL_INSTITUTION includes aggregation platforms, provincial heritage services, and government heritage agencies
- INTANGIBLE_HERITAGE_GROUP covers organizations preserving UNESCO-recognized intangible cultural heritage
- DIGITAL_PLATFORM includes born-digital heritage platforms and digitization aggregators
- NGO includes non-profit heritage organizations that don't fit other categories
- TASTE_SMELL includes establishments actively preserving culinary traditions, historic recipes, perfume formulations, and sensory heritage
- When institution type is unknown, records default to UNKNOWN pending verification
**Mnemonic**: **GLAMORCUBESFIXPHDNT** - Galleries, Libraries, Archives, Museums, Official institutions, Research centers, Corporations, Unknown, Botanical gardens/zoos, Education providers, Societies, Features, Intangible heritage groups, miXed, Personal collections, Holy sites, Digital platforms, NGOs, Taste/smell heritage
**Note on order**: The mnemonic GLAMORCUBESFIXPHDNT represents the alphabetical ordering by code: G-L-A-M-O-R-C-U-B-E-S-F-I-X-P-H-D-N-T
**Note**: Universities are classified under **E (EDUCATION_PROVIDER)**, not U. The U-class is reserved for institutions where the type cannot be determined during data extraction.

## Conversation JSON Structure
Each conversation JSON file has the following structure:
```json
{
"uuid": "conversation-uuid",
"name": "Conversation name (often includes country/region)",
"summary": "Optional summary",
"created_at": "ISO 8601 timestamp",
"updated_at": "ISO 8601 timestamp",
"chat_messages": [
{
"uuid": "message-uuid",
"text": "User or assistant message text",
"sender": "human" | "assistant",
"content": [
{
"type": "text" | "tool_use" | "tool_result",
"text": "Message content (may contain markdown, lists, etc.)",
...
}
]
}
]
}
```
## NLP Extraction Tasks
All extraction tasks map to the modular LinkML schema v0.2.0. See **Schema Reference** section above for module details.
### Task 1: Entity Recognition - Institution Names
**Objective**: Extract heritage institution names from conversation text.
**Schema Mapping**: Populates `HeritageCustodian` class from `schemas/core.yaml`
**Patterns to Look For**:
- Organization names (proper nouns)
- Museum names (often contain "Museum", "Museu", "Museo", "Muzeum", etc.)
- Library names (contain "Library", "Biblioteca", "Bibliothek", "Bibliotheek", etc.)
- Archive names (contain "Archive", "Archivo", "Archiv", "Archief", etc.)
- Gallery names
- Cultural centers
- Holy sites with collections (churches, temples, mosques, synagogues, monasteries, abbeys, cathedrals managing heritage materials)
**Contextual Indicators**:
- Lists of institutions
- Descriptions like "The X is a museum in Y"
- URLs containing institution names
- Mentions of collections, exhibitions, or holdings
**Example Extraction**:
```markdown
Input: "The Biblioteca Nacional do Brasil in Rio de Janeiro holds over 9 million items..."
Output:
- name: "Biblioteca Nacional do Brasil" # HeritageCustodian.name
- institution_type: LIBRARY # InstitutionTypeEnum from schemas/enums.yaml
- city: "Rio de Janeiro" # Location.city from schemas/core.yaml
- confidence_score: 0.95 # Provenance.confidence_score from schemas/provenance.yaml
```
### Task 2: Location Extraction
**Objective**: Extract geographic information associated with institutions.
**Schema Mapping**: Populates `Location` class from `schemas/core.yaml`
**Extract**:
- City names
- Street addresses (when mentioned)
- Postal codes
- Provinces/states/regions
- Country (can often be inferred from conversation title)
**Geocoding**:
- Use Nominatim API to geocode addresses to lat/lon
- Link to GeoNames IDs when possible
- Handle multilingual place names
**Example**:
```markdown
Input: "Nationaal Onderduikmuseum, Aalten"
Output:
- city: "Aalten" # Location.city
- country: "NL" # Location.country (ISO 3166-1 alpha-2)
- geonames_id: "2759899" (lookup via API) # Location.geonames_id
- latitude: 51.9167 (from geocoding)
- longitude: 6.5833
```
### Task 3: Identifier Extraction
**Objective**: Extract external identifiers mentioned in conversations.
**Schema Mapping**: Populates `Identifier` class from `schemas/core.yaml`
**Identifier Types**:
- ISIL codes (format: `NL-XXXXX`, `US-XXXXX`, etc.)
- Wikidata IDs (format: `Q12345`)
- VIAF IDs (format: numeric)
- URLs to institutional websites
- KvK numbers (Dutch: 8-digit format)
**Patterns**:
```regex
ISIL: [A-Z]{2}-[A-Za-z0-9]+
Wikidata: Q[0-9]+
VIAF: viaf.org/viaf/[0-9]+
KvK: [0-9]{8}
```
**Example**:
```markdown
Input: "ISIL code NL-AsdAM for Amsterdam Museum"
Output:
- identifier_scheme: "ISIL" # Identifier.identifier_scheme
- identifier_value: "NL-AsdAM" # Identifier.identifier_value
- institution_name: "Amsterdam Museum" # HeritageCustodian.name (for linking)
```
### Task 4: Relationship Extraction
**Objective**: Extract relationships between institutions.
**Schema Mapping**: Maps to `ChangeEvent` class from `schemas/provenance.yaml` (for mergers, splits) and future relationship modeling
**Relationship Types**:
- Parent-child (e.g., "X is part of Y")
- Partnerships (e.g., "X collaborates with Y")
- Network memberships (e.g., "X is a member of Z consortium")
- Merged organizations (e.g., "X merged with Y") `ChangeTypeEnum.MERGER`
**Indicators**:
- "part of", "branch of", "division of"
- "in partnership with", "collaborates with"
- "member of", "belongs to"
- "merged with", "absorbed by" Use `ChangeEvent` from `schemas/provenance.yaml`
### Task 5: Collection Metadata Extraction
**Objective**: Extract information about collections held by institutions.
**Schema Mapping**: Populates `Collection` class from `schemas/collections.yaml`
**Extract**:
- Collection names `Collection.collection_name`
- Collection types (archival, bibliographic, museum objects)
- Subject areas `Collection.subject_areas`
- Time periods covered `Collection.temporal_coverage`
- Item counts (when mentioned) `Collection.extent`
- Access information `Collection.access_rights`
**Example**:
```markdown
Input: "The archive holds 15,000 documents from the 18th-19th centuries..."
Output:
- collection_type: "archival" # Collection metadata
- item_count: 15000 # Collection.extent
- time_period_start: "1700-01-01" # Collection.temporal_coverage
- time_period_end: "1899-12-31"
```
### Task 6: Digital Platform Identification
**Objective**: Identify digital platforms and systems used by institutions.
**Schema Mapping**: Populates `DigitalPlatform` class from `schemas/core.yaml`
**Platform Types**:
- Collection management systems (Atlantis, MAIS, CollectiveAccess, etc.)
- Digital repositories (DSpace, EPrints, Fedora)
- Discovery portals
- SPARQL endpoints
- APIs
**Extract**:
- Platform name `DigitalPlatform.platform_name`
- Platform URL `DigitalPlatform.platform_url`
- Metadata standards used `DigitalPlatform.metadata_standards`
- Integration with aggregators (Europeana, DPLA, etc.)
### Task 7: Metadata Standards Detection
**Objective**: Identify which metadata standards institutions use.
**Schema Mapping**: Stores in `DigitalPlatform.metadata_standards` (list of strings)
**Standards to Detect**:
- Dublin Core
- MARC21
- EAD (Encoded Archival Description)
- BIBFRAME
- LIDO
- CIDOC-CRM
- Schema.org
- RiC-O (Records in Contexts)
- MODS, PREMIS, SPECTRUM, DACS
**Indicators**:
- Explicit mentions: "uses Dublin Core", "MARC21 records"
- Implicit: technical discussions about cataloging practices
### Task 8: Organizational Change Event Extraction (NEW - v0.2.0)
**Objective**: Extract significant organizational change events from conversation history.
**Schema Mapping**: Populates `ChangeEvent` class from `schemas/provenance.yaml`
**Change Types to Detect** (from `ChangeTypeEnum` in `schemas/enums.yaml`):
- **FOUNDING**: "established", "founded", "created", "opened"
- **CLOSURE**: "closed", "dissolved", "ceased operations", "shut down"
- **MERGER**: "merged with", "combined with", "joined with", "absorbed"
- **SPLIT**: "split into", "divided into", "separated from", "spun off"
- **ACQUISITION**: "acquired", "took over", "purchased"
- **RELOCATION**: "moved to", "relocated to", "transferred to"
- **NAME_CHANGE**: "renamed to", "formerly known as", "changed name to"
- **TYPE_CHANGE**: "became a museum", "converted to archive", "now operates as"
- **STATUS_CHANGE**: "reopened", "temporarily closed", "suspended operations"
- **RESTRUCTURING**: "reorganized", "restructured", "reformed"
- **LEGAL_CHANGE**: "incorporated as", "became a foundation", "legal status changed"
**Extract for Each Event**:
```yaml
change_history: # HeritageCustodian.change_history (list of ChangeEvent)
- event_id: "https://w3id.org/heritage/custodian/event/unique-id" # ChangeEvent.event_id
change_type: MERGER # ChangeEvent.change_type (ChangeTypeEnum from schemas/enums.yaml)
event_date: "2001-01-01" # ChangeEvent.event_date
event_description: >- # ChangeEvent.event_description
Merger of Institution A and Institution B to form new organization C.
Detailed description from conversation.
affected_organization: null # ChangeEvent.affected_organization (optional)
resulting_organization: null # ChangeEvent.resulting_organization (optional)
related_organizations: [] # ChangeEvent.related_organizations (optional)
source_documentation: "https://..." # ChangeEvent.source_documentation (optional)
```
**Temporal Context Indicators**:
- "In 2001, the museum merged with..."
- "After the renovation in 1985..."
- "Following the name change in 1968..."
- "The archive was relocated from X to Y in 1923"
**PROV-O Integration**:
- Map to `prov:Activity` in RDF serialization
- Link with `prov:wasInfluencedBy` from `HeritageCustodian`
- Use `prov:atTime` for event timestamps
- Track `prov:entity` (affected) and `prov:generated` (resulting) organizations
**Example Extraction**:
```markdown
Input: "The Noord-Hollands Archief was formed in 2001 through a merger of
Gemeentearchief Haarlem (founded 1910) and Rijksarchief in Noord-Holland
(founded 1802). The merger created a unified regional archive serving both
the city and province."
Output:
- event_id: "https://w3id.org/heritage/custodian/event/nha-merger-2001"
- change_type: MERGER # ChangeTypeEnum.MERGER
- event_date: "2001-01-01"
- event_description: "Merger of Gemeentearchief Haarlem (municipal archive, founded
1910) and Rijksarchief in Noord-Holland (state archive, founded
1802) to form Noord-Hollands Archief."
- confidence_score: 0.95 # From Provenance metadata
```
**GHCID Impact**:
- When institutions merge, relocate, or change names, GHCID may change
- Track old GHCID in `ghcid_history` with `valid_to` timestamp matching event date `GHCIDHistoryEntry` from `schemas/provenance.yaml`
- Create new `GHCIDHistoryEntry` with `valid_from` matching event date
- Link change event to GHCID change via temporal correlation
**Indicators**:
### Task 9: Holy Sites Heritage Collection Identification
**Objective**: Identify religious sites that function as heritage custodians by maintaining cultural collections.
**Schema Mapping**: Populates `HeritageCustodian` class with `institution_type: HOLY_SITES`
**When to Classify as HOLY_SITES**:
Religious institutions qualify as HOLY_SITES heritage custodians when they manage:
- **Archival collections**: Historical documents, parish registers, ecclesiastical records
- **Library collections**: Rare manuscripts, theological texts, historical books
- **Museum collections**: Religious artifacts, liturgical objects, art collections
- **Cultural heritage**: Historical buildings with guided tours, preservation programs
**Patterns to Look For**:
- Church archives (parish records, baptismal registers, historical documents)
- Monastery libraries (manuscript collections, rare books)
- Cathedral treasuries (liturgical objects, religious art)
- Temple museums (Buddhist artifacts, historical collections)
- Mosque libraries (Islamic manuscripts, Quranic texts)
- Synagogue archives (Jewish community records, Torah scrolls)
- Abbey collections (medieval manuscripts, historical artifacts)
**Keywords and Indicators**:
- "church archive", "parish records", "ecclesiastical archive"
- "monastery library", "monastic collection", "scriptorium"
- "cathedral treasury", "cathedral museum"
- "temple library", "temple collection"
- "mosque library", "Islamic manuscript collection"
- "synagogue archive", "Jewish heritage collection"
- "religious heritage site", "pilgrimage site with museum"
**NOT Holy Sites** (use other types):
- Secular museums about religion (use MUSEUM)
- Academic religious studies centers (use RESEARCH_CENTER or UNIVERSITY)
- Government archives of church records (use ARCHIVE)
- Religious organizations without heritage collections (not heritage custodians)
**Example Extraction**:
```yaml
Input: "The Vatican Apostolic Archive holds over 85 km of shelving with
documents dating back to the 8th century, including papal bulls,
correspondence, and medieval manuscripts."
Output:
- name: Vatican Apostolic Archive
institution_type: HOLY_SITES # Religious institution managing heritage collections
description: >-
The Vatican Apostolic Archive (formerly Vatican Secret Archives) is
the central repository for papal and Vatican documents, holding over
35,000 volumes of historical records spanning 12 centuries.
locations:
- city: Vatican City
country: VA
collections:
- collection_name: Papal Documents
collection_type: archival
temporal_coverage: "0800-01-01/2024-12-31"
extent: "85 kilometers of shelving, 35,000+ volumes"
provenance:
data_source: CONVERSATION_NLP
confidence_score: 0.95
```
**Schema.org Mapping**:
- HOLY_SITES maps to `schema:PlaceOfWorship` in RDF serialization
- Can also use `schema:ArchiveOrganization` or `schema:Library` for collection-specific context
- Use multiple type assertions when appropriate
**Cross-Cultural Considerations**:
- Christianity: churches, cathedrals, monasteries, abbeys, convents
- Islam: mosques, madrasas (with historical libraries)
- Judaism: synagogues, yeshivas (with archival collections)
- Buddhism: temples, monasteries, pagodas (with artifact collections)
- Hinduism: temples (with historical collections)
- Sikhism: gurdwaras (with historical manuscripts)
- Other faiths: shrines, pilgrimage sites with documented heritage collections
## Data Quality and Provenance
### Provenance Tracking
**Every extracted record MUST include**:
```yaml
provenance:
data_source: CONVERSATION_NLP
data_tier: TIER_4_INFERRED
extraction_date: "2025-11-05T..."
extraction_method: "Subagent NER + pattern matching"
confidence_score: 0.85
conversation_id: "conversation-uuid"
source_url: null
verified_date: null
verified_by: null
```
### Confidence Scoring
Assign confidence scores (0.0-1.0) based on:
- **0.9-1.0**: Explicit, unambiguous mentions with context
- **0.7-0.9**: Clear mentions with some ambiguity
- **0.5-0.7**: Inferred from context, may need verification
- **0.3-0.5**: Low confidence, likely needs verification
- **0.0-0.3**: Very uncertain, flag for manual review
### Data Tier Assignment
- **TIER_1_AUTHORITATIVE**: CSV registries (ISIL, Dutch orgs)
- **TIER_2_VERIFIED**: Data from institutional websites (crawl4ai)
- **TIER_3_CROWD_SOURCED**: Wikidata, OpenStreetMap
- **TIER_4_INFERRED**: NLP-extracted from conversations
## Integration with CSV Data
### Cross-linking Strategy
1. **ISIL Code Matching** (primary)
- If conversation mentions ISIL code, link to CSV record
- High confidence match
2. **Name Matching** (secondary)
- Normalize names (lowercase, remove punctuation, handle abbreviations)
- Fuzzy matching with threshold > 0.85
- Check for alternative names
3. **Location + Type Matching** (tertiary)
- Match by city + institution type
- Lower confidence, requires manual verification
### Conflict Resolution
When conversation data conflicts with CSV data:
- **CSV data takes precedence** (higher tier)
- Mark conversation data with `verified: false`
- Note conflict in provenance metadata
- Create separate record if institutions are genuinely different
## NLP Models and Tools
### Recommended Approach: Agent-Based NER
**IMPORTANT**: Instead of directly using spaCy or other NER libraries in the main codebase, use **coding subagents** via the Task tool to conduct Named Entity Recognition and text extraction.
**Why Subagents**:
- Keeps the main codebase clean and maintainable
- Allows flexible experimentation with different NER approaches
- Subagents can choose the best tool for each specific extraction task
- Better separation of concerns: extraction logic vs. data pipeline
**How to Use Subagents for NER**:
1. Use the Task tool with `subagent_type="general"` for NER tasks
2. Provide clear prompts describing what entities to extract
3. Subagent will autonomously choose and apply appropriate NER tools (spaCy, transformers, regex, etc.)
4. Subagent returns structured extraction results
5. Main code validates and processes the results
## CRITICAL: Creating LinkML Instance Files
### Agent Capabilities Go Beyond Traditional NER
**IMPORTANT**: AI extraction agents are NOT limited to simple Named Entity Recognition. Unlike traditional NER tools that only identify entity boundaries and types, AI agents have **comprehensive understanding** and can:
1. **Extract Complete Records**: Capture ALL relevant information for each institution in one pass
2. **Infer Missing Data**: Use context to fill in fields that aren't explicitly stated
3. **Cross-Reference Within Documents**: Link related entities (locations, identifiers, events) automatically
4. **Maintain Consistency**: Ensure all extracted data conforms to the LinkML schema
5. **Generate Rich Metadata**: Create complete provenance tracking and confidence scores
### Mandatory: Create Complete LinkML Instance Files
When extracting data from conversations or other sources, agents MUST:
**✅ DO THIS**: Create complete LinkML-compliant YAML instance files with ALL available information
```yaml

**❌ DO NOT DO THIS**: Return minimal JSON with only name and type
```json

}
```
### Extraction Workflow for Agents
When processing a conversation or document:
1. **Read Entire Document First**: Don't extract piecemeal - understand the full context
2. **Identify ALL Entities**: Find every institution, location, identifier, event mentioned
3. **Gather Complete Information**: For each institution, extract:
- Basic metadata (name, type, description)
- All locations mentioned (even if just city/country)
- All identifiers (ISIL, Wikidata, VIAF, URLs)
- Digital platforms and systems
- Collection information
- Historical events (founding, mergers, relocations)
- Relationships to other institutions
4. **Create LinkML YAML**: Write a complete instance file with ALL extracted data
5. **Add Provenance**: Always include extraction metadata with confidence scores
6. **Validate**: Ensure output conforms to schema (use `linkml-validate` if available)
### Example Agent Prompt for Comprehensive Extraction
```
Extract ALL heritage institutions from the following conversation about Brazilian GLAM institutions.
For EACH institution found, create a COMPLETE LinkML-compliant record including:
- Institution name, type, and description
- ALL locations mentioned (cities, addresses, regions)
- ALL identifiers (ISIL codes, Wikidata IDs, VIAF IDs, URLs)
- Digital platforms, systems, or websites
- Collection information (types, subjects, time periods, extent)
- Historical events (founding dates, mergers, relocations, name changes)
- Relationships to other organizations
Output: YAML file conforming to schemas/core.yaml, schemas/enums.yaml,
schemas/provenance.yaml, and schemas/collections.yaml
Use your understanding to:
- Infer missing fields from context (e.g., country from city names)
- Consolidate information scattered across multiple conversation turns
- Create rich descriptions summarizing key facts
- Assign appropriate confidence scores based on explicitness of mentions
Remember: You are NOT a simple NER tool. Use your full comprehension abilities
to create the most complete, accurate, and useful records possible.
```
### Multiple Institutions Per File
When a conversation discusses many institutions, create ONE YAML file with a list:
```yaml
---
# data/instances/netherlands_limburg_museums.yaml
- id: https://w3id.org/heritage/custodian/nl/bonnefantenmuseum
name: Bonnefantenmuseum
institution_type: MUSEUM
# ... complete record ...
- id: https://w3id.org/heritage/custodian/nl/thermenmuseum
name: Thermenmuseum
institution_type: MUSEUM
# ... complete record ...
- id: https://w3id.org/heritage/custodian/nl/limburgs-museum
name: Limburgs Museum
institution_type: MUSEUM
# ... complete record ...
```
### Field Completion Strategies
Even when information is incomplete, do your best:
- **No explicit institution type?** Infer from context ("national library" → LIBRARY)
- **Only city mentioned?** That's fine - add `locations: [{city: "Amsterdam", country: "NL"}]`
- **No ISIL code?** Check if you can infer the format (NL-CityCode) or leave it out
- **No description?** Create one from available facts
- **Uncertain data?** Lower the confidence score but still include it
### Validation and Quality Control
After creating instance files:
1. **Schema Validation**: If possible, run `linkml-validate -s schemas/heritage_custodian.yaml data/instances/your_file.yaml`
2. **Completeness Check**: Ensure every institution has at minimum:
- `id` (generate from country + institution name slug)
- `name`
- `institution_type`
- `provenance` (with data_source, extraction_date, confidence_score)
3. **Consistency Check**: Same institution mentioned multiple times? Merge into one record
4. **Quality Flags**: If confidence < 0.5, add note in `provenance.notes` explaining uncertainty
### Extraction Stack (for Subagents)
When subagents perform extraction, they may use:
1. **Pattern matching** for identifiers (primary approach)
- Regex for ISIL, VIAF, Wikidata IDs
- URL extraction and normalization
- High precision, no dependencies
2. **NER libraries** (via subagents only)
- spaCy: `en_core_web_trf`, `nl_core_news_lg`, `xx_ent_wiki_sm`
- Transformers for classification
- Used by subagents, not directly in main code
3. **Fuzzy matching** for deduplication
- `rapidfuzz` library
- Levenshtein distance for name matching
### Processing Pipeline
```
Conversation JSON
Parse & Extract Text
[SUBAGENT] NER Extraction
- Subagent uses spaCy/transformers/patterns
- Returns structured entities
Pattern Matching (identifiers, URLs)
Classification (institution type, standards)
Geocoding (locations)
Cross-link with CSV (ISIL/name matching)
LinkML Validation
Export (RDF, JSON-LD, CSV, Parquet)
```
## Agent Interaction Patterns
### When Asked to Extract Data from Conversations
1. **Start Small**: Begin with 1-2 conversation files to test extraction logic
2. **Show Examples**: Display extracted entities with confidence scores
3. **Ask for Validation**: Show uncertain extractions for user confirmation
4. **Iterate**: Refine patterns based on feedback
5. **Batch Process**: Once patterns are validated, process all 139 files
### When Asked to Design NLP Components
1. **Reference Schema**: Always refer to the modular schema v0.2.1:
- Core classes: `schemas/core.yaml` (HeritageCustodian, Location, Identifier, etc.)
- Enumerations: `schemas/enums.yaml` (InstitutionTypeEnum, ChangeTypeEnum, etc.)
- Provenance: `schemas/provenance.yaml` (Provenance, ChangeEvent, etc.)
- See schema overview in the "Schema Reference (v0.2.1)" section above
2. **Consult Base Ontologies**: BEFORE designing extraction logic, review relevant ontologies:
- **Dutch institutions**: Study TOOI ontology (`/data/ontology/tooiont.ttl`)
- **EU/global institutions**: Study CPOV ontology (`/data/ontology/core-public-organisation-ap.ttl`)
- **All institutions**: Reference Schema.org patterns (`/data/ontology/schemaorg.owl`)
- See "Base Ontologies for Global GLAM Data" section above for decision tree
3. **Use Design Patterns**: Follow patterns in `docs/plan/global_glam/05-design-patterns.md`
4. **Track Provenance**: Every extraction must include provenance metadata (from `schemas/provenance.yaml`)
5. **Handle Multilingual**: Conversations cover 60+ countries, expect multilingual content
6. **Error Handling**: Use Result pattern, never fail silently
### When Asked to Validate Data
1. **LinkML Validation**: Use `linkml-validate` to check schema compliance
2. **Cross-reference**: Compare with CSV data when applicable
3. **Check Identifiers**: Validate ISIL format, check Wikidata exists
4. **Geographic Verification**: Geocode addresses, verify country codes
5. **Duplicate Detection**: Use fuzzy matching to find potential duplicates
## Example Agent Workflows
### Workflow 1: Extract Brazilian Institutions
```bash
# User request
"Extract all museum, library, and archive names from the Brazilian GLAM conversation"
# Agent actions
1. Read conversation: 2025-09-22T14-40-15-0102c00a-4c0a-4488-bdca-5dd9fb94c9c5-Brazilian_GLAM_collection_inventories.json
2. Parse chat_messages array
3. **Launch subagent** to extract institutions using NER
- Subagent analyzes text and extracts ORG entities
- Filters for heritage-related keywords
- Classifies institution types
- Returns structured results
4. Extract locations (cities in Brazil)
5. Geocode using Nominatim
6. Create HeritageCustodian records
7. Add provenance metadata (data_source: CONVERSATION_NLP, extraction_method: "Subagent NER")
8. Validate with LinkML schema
9. Export to JSON-LD
10. Report results with confidence scores
```
### Workflow 2: Cross-link Dutch Institutions
```bash
# User request
"Cross-link the Dutch organizations CSV with any Dutch institutions found in conversations"
# Agent actions
1. Load data/voorbeeld_lijst_organisaties_en_diensten-totaallijst_nederland.csv
2. Parse into DutchHeritageCustodian records
3. Extract all NL-* ISIL codes
4. Search all conversation files for mentions of these ISIL codes
5. Fuzzy match organization names
6. For matches:
- Merge metadata
- Mark CSV data as TIER_1
- Mark conversation data as TIER_4
- Resolve conflicts (CSV wins)
7. For Dutch institutions in conversations NOT in CSV:
- Create new records
- Mark as TIER_4
- Flag for verification
8. Export merged dataset
```
### Workflow 3: Build Global Institution Map
```bash
# User request
"Create a geographic distribution map of all extracted institutions"
# Agent actions
1. Process all 139 conversation files
2. **Launch subagent(s)** to extract institution names + locations from each file
3. Geocode all addresses
4. Group by country
5. Count institutions per country
6. Generate GeoJSON for mapping
7. Create visualization (Leaflet, Mapbox, etc.)
8. Export statistics:
- Institutions per country
- Institutions per type
- Geographic coverage
- Data quality (tier distribution)
```
## Multi-language Considerations
### Language Detection
- Detect language of conversation content
- Subagents will choose appropriate NER models per language
- Multilingual support handled by subagents
### Common Languages in Dataset
- English (international institutions)
- Dutch (Netherlands institutions)
- Portuguese (Brazil)
- Spanish (Latin America, Spain)
- Vietnamese, Japanese, Thai, Korean, Arabic, Russian, etc.
### Translation Strategy
- DO NOT translate institution names (preserve original)
- Optionally translate descriptions for searchability
- Store language tags with text fields
- Use multilingual identifiers (Wikidata) for linking
## Output Formats
### Primary Output: JSON-LD
Linked Data format for semantic web integration:
```jsonld
{
"@context": "https://w3id.org/heritage/custodian/context.jsonld",
"@type": "HeritageCustodian",
"@id": "https://example.org/institution/123",
"name": "Amsterdam Museum",
"institution_type": "MUSEUM",
...
}
```
### Secondary Outputs
- **RDF/Turtle**: For SPARQL querying
- **CSV**: For spreadsheet analysis
- **Parquet**: For data warehousing
- **SQLite**: For local querying
## Testing and Validation
### Unit Tests
Test extraction functions with known inputs:
```python
def test_extract_isil_codes():
text = "The ISIL code NL-AsdAM identifies Amsterdam Museum"
codes = extract_isil_codes(text)
assert codes == [{"scheme": "ISIL", "value": "NL-AsdAM"}]
```
### Integration Tests
Test full pipeline with sample conversations:
```python
def test_brazilian_museum_extraction():
conversation = load_json("Brazilian_GLAM_collection_inventories.json")
records = extract_heritage_custodians(conversation)
assert len(records) > 0
assert all(r.provenance.data_source == "CONVERSATION_NLP" for r in records)
```
### Validation Tests
Ensure LinkML schema compliance:
```python
def test_linkml_validation():
record = create_heritage_custodian(...)
validator = SchemaValidator(schema="heritage_custodian.yaml")
result = validator.validate(record)
assert result.is_valid
```
## Performance Optimization
### Batch Processing
- Process conversations in parallel (multiprocessing)
- Cache geocoding results (15-minute TTL)
- Deduplicate entity extraction
### Incremental Updates
- Track last processed timestamp
- Only process new/updated conversations
- Maintain state in SQLite database
### Resource Management
- Limit concurrent API calls (Nominatim: 1 req/sec)
- Use connection pooling for HTTP requests
- Stream large JSON files instead of loading into memory
## Error Handling
### Common Errors and Solutions
1. **JSON Parsing Errors**
- Malformed JSON files
- Solution: Validate JSON schema, report file path
2. **NER Model Errors**
- Missing spaCy model
- Solution: Provide installation instructions, download automatically
3. **Geocoding Failures**
- Unknown location, rate limit exceeded
- Solution: Cache results, implement backoff, mark as unverified
4. **LinkML Validation Failures**
- Required field missing, invalid enum value
- Solution: Log validation errors, provide field mapping
5. **Encoding Issues**
- Non-UTF-8 characters
- Solution: Use UTF-8 everywhere, handle decode errors gracefully
## Schema Quirks and Implementation Notes
**IMPORTANT**: These are critical implementation details discovered during development. Read carefully to avoid bugs.
### Provenance Model Quirks
The `Provenance` model does **NOT** have a `notes` field:
```python
# ❌ WRONG - Provenance has no 'notes' field
provenance = Provenance(
data_source=DataSource.CSV_REGISTRY,
notes="Some observation" # This will fail!
)
# ✅ CORRECT - Use HeritageCustodian.description instead
custodian = HeritageCustodian(
name="Museum Name",
description="Notes and remarks go here", # Put notes here
provenance=Provenance(...)
)
```
### Field Naming Conventions
Always use the correct field names (check the schema when in doubt):
```python
# ❌ WRONG
custodian.institution_types # Plural, list
custodian.location # Singular
# ✅ CORRECT
custodian.institution_type # Singular, single enum value
custodian.locations # Plural, always a list (even with one item)
```
### Pydantic v1 Enum Behavior
This project uses Pydantic v1. Enum fields are **already strings**, not enum objects:
```python
# ❌ WRONG - Don't use .value accessor
print(custodian.institution_type.value) # AttributeError!
# ✅ CORRECT - Enum fields are already strings
print(custodian.institution_type) # "MUSEUM", "ARCHIVE", etc.
# Same for platform types
platform.platform_type # Already a string, not an enum object
```
### Required vs. Optional Fields
Many fields are optional but have validation rules. Always check for `None`:
```python
# Optional fields that may be None
custodian.locations # Optional[List[Location]]
custodian.identifiers # Optional[List[Identifier]]
custodian.digital_platforms # Optional[List[DigitalPlatform]]
custodian.description # Optional[str]
# Always check before iterating
if custodian.locations:
for location in custodian.locations:
print(location.city)
```
### CSV Parsing Best Practices
1. **Handle UTF-8 BOM**: Use `encoding='utf-8-sig'` when reading CSVs
2. **Normalize headers**: Strip whitespace, handle multiline headers
3. **Warn on errors**: Skip invalid rows but log warnings
4. **Preserve originals**: Store raw CSV data in intermediate models before conversion
Example:
```python
with open(csv_path, 'r', encoding='utf-8-sig') as f:
reader = csv.DictReader(f)
for row in reader:
try:
record = parse_row(row)
except ValidationError as e:
print(f"Warning: Skipping row {row}: {e}")
continue
```
### Date Handling
Dates may be in various formats or empty:
```python
# Handle empty dates
date_str = row.get('toegekend_op', '').strip()
assigned_date = datetime.fromisoformat(date_str) if date_str else None
# Provenance extraction_date is required (use current time)
from datetime import datetime, timezone
extraction_date = datetime.now(timezone.utc)
```
### Testing Strategies
1. **Unit tests**: Test model validation with known inputs
2. **Integration tests**: Test full file parsing with fixtures
3. **Edge case tests**: Empty files, malformed rows, minimal data
4. **Real data tests**: Always validate with actual CSV files
Fixture scope matters:
```python
# ❌ WRONG - Class-scoped fixture not available to other classes
class TestFoo:
@pytest.fixture
def sample_file(self):
...
# ✅ CORRECT - Module-scoped fixture available to all test classes
@pytest.fixture
def sample_file(): # At module level, not in a class
...
```

- Quality review checklists
## Persistent Identifiers (GHCID)
**🚨 COLLISION RESOLUTION: NATIVE LANGUAGE NAME SUFFIX 🚨**
When multiple institutions generate the same base GHCID, collisions are resolved by appending the **full legal name in native language in snake_case format**.
**Collision Suffix Rules**:
- Use the institution's full official name in its native language
- Convert to snake_case (lowercase, underscores for spaces)
- Remove apostrophes, accents, commas, and other punctuation/diacritics
- Only add suffix on collision (not by default)
- First-added institution keeps base GHCID; later additions get name suffix
**Examples**:
- Base GHCID collision: `NL-NH-AMS-M-SM` (two museums with "SM" abbreviation)
- First institution: `NL-NH-AMS-M-SM` (Stedelijk Museum, added first - no suffix)
- Second institution: `NL-NH-AMS-M-SM-science_museum_amsterdam` (added later - gets suffix)
**Name Normalization**:
```
"Musée d'Orsay" → "musee_dorsay"
"Biblioteca Nacional do Brasil" → "biblioteca_nacional_do_brasil"
"北京故宫博物院" → "beijing_gugong_bowuyuan" (pinyin transliteration)
"Österreichische Nationalbibliothek" → "osterreichische_nationalbibliothek"
```
**Note**: The GHCID string (including any name suffix) gets hashed to UUID, so the longer name won't be visible to end users - they see only the UUID.
---
### 🚨 SETTLEMENT STANDARDIZATION: GEONAMES IS AUTHORITATIVE 🚨
**ALL settlement names in GHCID MUST be derived from GeoNames, not from source data.**
The GeoNames geographical database (`/data/reference/geonames.db`) is the **single source of truth** for:
- Settlement names (cities, towns, villages)
- Settlement 3-letter codes
- Administrative region codes (admin1 ISO 3166-2)
**Why GeoNames?**
- **Consistency**: Same coordinates same settlement same GHCID component
- **Disambiguation**: Handles duplicate settlement names across regions
- **Standardization**: Provides ASCII-safe names for identifiers
- **Persistence**: Geographic reality is stable, ensuring GHCID stability
**Settlement Resolution Process**:
1. **Coordinates Available (Preferred)**: Use reverse geocoding to find nearest GeoNames settlement
2. **Name Only (Fallback)**: Look up settlement name in GeoNames with fuzzy matching
3. **Manual (Last Resort)**: Flag entry with `settlement_code: XXX` for review
### 🚨 CRITICAL: GeoNames Feature Code Filtering 🚨
**NEVER use neighborhoods or districts (PPLX) for GHCID generation. ONLY use proper settlements (cities, towns, villages).**
GeoNames classifies populated places with feature codes. When reverse geocoding coordinates to find a settlement, you MUST filter by feature code to ensure you get a city/town/village, NOT a neighborhood or district.
**ALLOWED Feature Codes** (use these for GHCID settlements):
| Code | Description | Example |
|------|-------------|---------|
| **PPL** | Populated place (city/town/village) | Apeldoorn, Hamont, Lelystad |
| **PPLA** | Seat of first-order admin division | Provincial capitals |
| **PPLA2** | Seat of second-order admin division | Municipal seats |
| **PPLA3** | Seat of third-order admin division | District seats |
| **PPLA4** | Seat of fourth-order admin division | Sub-district seats |
| **PPLC** | Capital of a political entity | Amsterdam, Brussels |
| **PPLS** | Populated places (multiple) | Settlement clusters |
| **PPLG** | Seat of government | The Hague (when different from capital) |
**EXCLUDED Feature Codes** (NEVER use for GHCID):
| Code | Description | Why Excluded |
|------|-------------|--------------|
| **PPLX** | Section of populated place | Neighborhoods, districts, quarters (e.g., "Binnenstad", "Amsterdam Binnenstad") |
**Example of the Problem**:
```sql
-- BAD: Query without feature code filter returns neighborhoods
SELECT name, feature_code, population FROM cities
WHERE country_code='NL' ORDER BY distance LIMIT 1;
-- Result: "Binnenstad" (PPLX, pop 4,900) ❌ WRONG
-- GOOD: Query WITH feature code filter returns proper settlements
SELECT name, feature_code, population FROM cities
WHERE country_code='NL'
AND feature_code IN ('PPL', 'PPLA', 'PPLA2', 'PPLA3', 'PPLA4', 'PPLC', 'PPLS', 'PPLG')
ORDER BY distance LIMIT 1;
-- Result: "Apeldoorn" (PPL, pop 136,670) ✅ CORRECT
```
**Implementation in SQL**:
```sql
-- Correct reverse geocoding query with feature code filter
SELECT
name, ascii_name, admin1_code, admin1_name,
latitude, longitude, geonames_id, population, feature_code,
((latitude - ?) * (latitude - ?) + (longitude - ?) * (longitude - ?)) as distance_sq
FROM cities
WHERE country_code = ?
AND feature_code IN ('PPL', 'PPLA', 'PPLA2', 'PPLA3', 'PPLA4', 'PPLC', 'PPLS', 'PPLG')
ORDER BY distance_sq
LIMIT 1
```
**Verification**: Always check `feature_code` in location_resolution metadata:
```yaml
location_resolution:
method: REVERSE_GEOCODE
geonames_id: 2759706
geonames_name: Apeldoorn
feature_code: PPL # ← MUST be PPL, PPLA, PPLA2, PPLA3, PPLA4, PPLC, PPLS, or PPLG
admin1_code: '03'
region_code: GE
country_code: NL
```
**If you see `feature_code: PPLX`**, the GHCID is WRONG and must be regenerated.
### Country Code Detection for GeoNames Lookups
**CRITICAL**: Determine country code from entry data BEFORE calling GeoNames reverse geocoding.
GeoNames queries are country-specific. Using the wrong country code will return incorrect results or no results.
**Country Code Resolution Priority**:
1. `zcbs_enrichment.country` - Most explicit source
2. `location.country` - Direct location field
3. `locations[].country` - Array location field
4. `original_entry.country` - CSV source field
5. `google_maps_enrichment.address` - Parse country from address string (", Belgium", ", Germany")
6. `wikidata_enrichment.located_in.label` - Infer from Wikidata location
7. Default: `"NL"` (Netherlands) - Only if no other source available
**Example Country Detection Code**:
```python
# Determine country code FIRST
country_code = "NL" # Default
if entry.get('zcbs_enrichment', {}).get('country'):
country_code = entry['zcbs_enrichment']['country']
elif entry.get('location', {}).get('country'):
country_code = entry['location']['country']
elif entry.get('google_maps_enrichment', {}).get('address', ''):
address = entry['google_maps_enrichment']['address']
if ', Belgium' in address or ', België' in address:
country_code = "BE"
elif ', Germany' in address or ', Deutschland' in address:
country_code = "DE"
# THEN call reverse geocoding with correct country
result = reverse_geocode_to_city(latitude, longitude, country_code)
```
**GHCID Settlement Code Format**:
```
NL-{REGION}-{SETTLEMENT}-{TYPE}-{ABBREV}
^^^^^^^^^^^
3-letter code from GeoNames
```
**Code Generation Rules**:
- Single word: First 3 letters `Amsterdam` = `AMS`, `Lelystad` = `LEL`
- Dutch article (`de`, `het`, `den`, `'s`): Article initial + 2 from main word `Den Haag` = `DHA`
- Multi-word: Initials (up to 3) `Nieuw Amsterdam` = `NAM`
**Historical Custodians - Measurement Point Rule**:
For heritage custodians that no longer exist or have historical locations:
- Use the **modern-day settlement** (as of 2025-12-01) where the coordinates fall
- GeoNames reflects current geographic reality
- Historical place names should NOT be used for GHCID generation
Example: A museum operating 1900-1950 in what is now Lelystad (before Flevoland existed) uses `LEL`, not historical names.
### 🚨 CRITICAL: XXX Placeholders Are TEMPORARY - Research Required 🚨
**XXX placeholders for region/settlement codes are NEVER acceptable as a final state. They indicate missing data that MUST be researched and resolved.**
When you encounter or generate entries with `XX` (unknown region) or `XXX` (unknown settlement):
**Step 1: Identify the Last Known Physical Location**
For **destroyed/historical institutions**:
- Use the **last recorded physical location** where the institution operated
- Example: Gaza Cultural Center destroyed in 2024 use Gaza City coordinates (`PS-GZ-GAZ-M-GCC`)
For **refugee/diaspora organizations**:
- Use the location of their **current headquarters** OR **original founding location**
- Document which location type was used in `location_resolution.notes`
For **digital-only platforms**:
- Use the location of the **parent/founding organization**
- Example: Interactive Encyclopedia of Palestine Question Institute for Palestine Studies Beirut (`LB-BA-BEI-D-IEPQ`)
**Step 2: Research Sources (Priority Order)**
1. **Wikidata** - Search for the institution, check P131 (located in) or P159 (headquarters location)
2. **Google Maps** - Search institution name, extract coordinates
3. **Official Website** - Look for contact page, about page with address
4. **Web Archive** - Use archive.org for destroyed/closed institutions
5. **Academic Sources** - Papers, reports mentioning the institution
6. **News Articles** - Particularly useful for destroyed heritage sites
**Step 3: Update Entry with Resolved Location**
```yaml
# BEFORE (unacceptable)
ghcid:
ghcid_current: PS-XX-XXX-A-NAPR
location_resolution:
method: NAME_LOOKUP
country_code: PS
region_code: XX
city_code: XXX
# AFTER (properly researched)
ghcid:
ghcid_current: PS-GZ-GAZ-A-NAPR
location_resolution:
method: MANUAL_RESEARCH
country_code: PS
region_code: GZ
region_name: Gaza Strip
city_code: GAZ
city_name: Gaza City
geonames_id: 281133
research_date: "2025-12-06T00:00:00Z"
research_sources:
- type: wikidata
id: Q123456
claim: P131
- type: web_archive
url: https://web.archive.org/web/20231001/https://institution-website.org/contact
notes: "Located in Gaza City prior to destruction in 2024"
```
**Step 4: Rename File to Match New GHCID**
Files MUST be renamed when GHCID changes:
```bash
# Old file
data/custodian/PS-XX-XXX-A-NAPR.yaml
# New file after research
data/custodian/PS-GZ-GAZ-A-NAPR.yaml
```
**Common XXX Placeholder Scenarios and Solutions**:
| Scenario | Solution |
|----------|----------|
| Destroyed Gaza institution | Use pre-destruction coordinates (Gaza City, Khan Yunis, etc.) |
| Refugee archive (diaspora) | Use current headquarters OR founding camp location |
| Digital platform (online only) | Use parent organization headquarters |
| Decentralized initiative | Use founding location or primary organizer location |
| Historical institution (closed) | Use last operating location |
| Institution with country but no city | Research using name + country in Wikidata/Google |
**NEVER**:
- Leave XXX placeholders in production data
- Use "Online" or "Palestine" as location values
- Skip location research because it's "difficult"
- Use XX/XXX for diaspora organizations (they have real locations)
**ALWAYS**:
- Document research sources in `location_resolution.research_sources`
- Add notes explaining location choice for complex cases
- Update GHCID history when location is resolved
- Rename files to match corrected GHCID

### 🚨 INSTITUTION ABBREVIATION: EMIC NAME FIRST-LETTER PROTOCOL 🚨
**The institution abbreviation component uses the FIRST LETTER of each significant word in the official emic (native language) name.**
** GRANDFATHERING POLICY (PID STABILITY)**
Existing GHCIDs created before December 2025 are **grandfathered** - their abbreviations will NOT be updated even if derived from English translations rather than emic names. This preserves PID stability per the "Cool URIs Don't Change" principle.
**Applies to:**
- 817 UNESCO Memory of the World custodian files enriched with `custodian_name.emic_name`
- Abbreviations like `NLP` (National Library of Peru) remain unchanged even though emic name is "Biblioteca Nacional del Perú" (would be `BNP`)
**For NEW custodians only:** Apply emic name abbreviation protocol described below.
**Abbreviation Rules**:
1. Use the **CustodianName** (official emic name), NOT an English translation
2. Take the **first letter** of each word
3. **Skip prepositions, articles, and conjunctions** in all languages
4. **Skip digits and numeric tokens** (e.g., "40-45", "1945", "III")
5. Convert to **UPPERCASE**
6. Remove accents/diacritics (áA, ñN, öO)
7. Maximum **10 characters**
**Skipped Words** (prepositions/articles/conjunctions by language):
- **Dutch**: de, het, een, van, voor, in, op, te, den, der, des, 's, aan, bij, met, naar, om, tot, uit, over, onder, door, en, of
- **English**: a, an, the, of, in, at, on, to, for, with, from, by, as, under, and, or, but
- **French**: le, la, les, un, une, des, de, d, du, à, au, aux, en, dans, sur, sous, pour, par, avec, l, et, ou
- **German**: der, die, das, den, dem, des, ein, eine, einer, einem, einen, von, zu, für, mit, bei, nach, aus, vor, über, unter, durch, und, oder
- **Spanish**: el, la, los, las, un, una, unos, unas, de, del, a, al, en, con, por, para, sobre, bajo, y, o, e, u
- **Portuguese**: o, a, os, as, um, uma, uns, umas, de, do, da, dos, das, em, no, na, nos, nas, para, por, com, sobre, sob, e, ou
- **Italian**: il, lo, la, i, gli, le, un, uno, una, di, del, dello, della, dei, degli, delle, a, al, allo, alla, ai, agli, alle, da, dal, dallo, dalla, dai, dagli, dalle, in, nel, nello, nella, nei, negli, nelle, su, sul, sullo, sulla, sui, sugli, sulle, con, per, tra, fra, e, ed, o, od
**TODO**: Expand to comprehensive global coverage for all ISO 639-1 languages as project expands.
**Examples**:
| Emic Name | Abbreviation | Explanation |
|-----------|--------------|-------------|
| Heemkundige Kring De Goede Stede | HKGS | Skip "De" |
| De Hollandse Cirkel | HC | Skip "De" |
| Historische Vereniging Nijeveen | HVN | All significant words |
| Rijksmuseum Amsterdam | RA | All significant words |
| Musée d'Orsay | MO | Skip "d'" (d = de) |
| Biblioteca Nacional do Brasil | BNB | Skip "do" |
| L'Académie française | AF | Skip "L'" |
| Museum van de Twintigste Eeuw | MTE | Skip "van", "de" |
| Koninklijke Bibliotheek van België | KBB | Skip "van" |
**GHCID Format with Abbreviation**:
```
NL-{REGION}-{SETTLEMENT}-{TYPE}-{ABBREV}
^^^^^^^^
First letter of each significant word in emic name
```
**Implementation**: See `src/glam_extractor/identifiers/ghcid.py:extract_abbreviation_from_name()`
### 🚨 CRITICAL: Special Characters MUST Be Excluded from Abbreviations 🚨
**When generating abbreviations for GHCID, special characters and symbols MUST be completely removed. Only alphabetic characters (A-Z) are permitted in the abbreviation component.**
**RATIONALE**:
1. **URL/URI safety** - Special characters require encoding in URIs
2. **Filename safety** - Characters like `&`, `/`, `\`, `:` are invalid in filenames
3. **Parsing consistency** - Avoids delimiter conflicts in data pipelines
4. **Cross-system compatibility** - Ensures interoperability with all systems
5. **Human readability** - Clean identifiers are easier to communicate
**CHARACTERS TO REMOVE** (exhaustive list):
- **Ampersand**: `&` (e.g., "Records & Archives" "RA", NOT "R&A")
- **Slash**: `/` (e.g., "Art/Design Museum" "ADM", NOT "A/DM")
- **Backslash**: `\`
- **Plus**: `+` (e.g., "Culture+" "C")
- **At sign**: `@`
- **Hash/Pound**: `#`
- **Percent**: `%`
- **Dollar**: `$`
- **Asterisk**: `*`
- **Parentheses**: `( )`
- **Brackets**: `[ ] { }`
- **Pipe**: `|`
- **Colon**: `:`
- **Semicolon**: `;`
- **Quotation marks**: `" ' \``
- **Comma**: `,`
- **Period**: `.` (unless part of abbreviation like "U.S." "US")
- **Hyphen**: `-` (skip, do not replace with letter)
- **Underscore**: `_`
- **Equals**: `=`
- **Question mark**: `?`
- **Exclamation**: `!`
- **Tilde**: `~`
- **Caret**: `^`
- **Less/Greater than**: `< >`
**EXAMPLES**:
| Source Name | Correct Abbreviation | Incorrect (WRONG) |
|-------------|---------------------|-------------------|
| Department of Records & Information Management | DRIM | DR&IM |
| Art + Culture Center | ACC | A+CC |
| Museum/Gallery Amsterdam | MGA | M/GA |
| Heritage@Digital | HD | H@D |
| Archives (Historical) | AH | A(H) |
| Research & Development Institute | RDI | R&DI |
**REAL-WORLD EXAMPLE** (from `data/custodian/SX-XX-PHI-O-DR&IMSM.yaml`):
```yaml
# INCORRECT (current file - needs correction):
ghcid_current: SX-XX-PHI-O-DR&IMSM # ❌ Contains "&"
# CORRECT (should be):
ghcid_current: SX-XX-PHI-O-DRIMSM # ✅ Alphabetic only
```
**Implementation**: When extracting first letters from words containing special characters:
1. Split the word on special characters: "Records&Information" ["Records", "Information"]
2. Take first letter from each resulting segment: "R" + "I" = "RI"
3. Or skip the special character entirely and treat as one word if no space around it
**See**: `.opencode/ABBREVIATION_SPECIAL_CHAR_RULE.md` for complete documentation
### 🚨 CRITICAL: Diacritics MUST Be Normalized to ASCII in Abbreviations 🚨
**When generating abbreviations for GHCID, diacritics (accented characters) MUST be normalized to their ASCII base letter equivalents. Only ASCII uppercase letters (A-Z) are permitted.**
This rule applies to ALL languages with diacritical marks including Czech, Polish, German, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Nordic languages, Hungarian, Romanian, Turkish, and others.
**RATIONALE**:
1. **URI/URL safety** - Non-ASCII characters require percent-encoding
2. **Cross-system compatibility** - ASCII is universally supported
3. **Filename safety** - Some systems have issues with non-ASCII filenames
4. **Human readability** - Easier to type and communicate
**DIACRITICS NORMALIZATION TABLE**:
| Language | Diacritics | ASCII Equivalent |
|----------|------------|------------------|
| **Czech** | Č, Ř, Š, Ž, Ě, Ů | C, R, S, Z, E, U |
| **Polish** | Ł, Ń, Ó, Ś, Ź, Ż, Ą, Ę | L, N, O, S, Z, Z, A, E |
| **German** | Ä, Ö, Ü, ß | A, O, U, SS |
| **French** | É, È, Ê, Ç, Ô, Â | E, E, E, C, O, A |
| **Spanish** | Ñ, Á, É, Í, Ó, Ú | N, A, E, I, O, U |
| **Portuguese** | Ã, Õ, Ç, Á, É | A, O, C, A, E |
| **Nordic** | Å, Ä, Ö, Ø, Æ | A, A, O, O, AE |
| **Hungarian** | Á, É, Í, Ó, Ö, Ő, Ú, Ü, Ű | A, E, I, O, O, O, U, U, U |
| **Turkish** | Ç, Ğ, İ, Ö, Ş, Ü | C, G, I, O, S, U |
| **Romanian** | Ă, Â, Î, Ș, Ț | A, A, I, S, T |
**REAL-WORLD EXAMPLE** (Czech institution):
```yaml
# INCORRECT - Contains diacritics:
ghcid_current: CZ-VY-TEL-L-VHSPAOČRZS # ❌ Contains "Č"
# CORRECT - ASCII only:
ghcid_current: CZ-VY-TEL-L-VHSPAOCRZS # ✅ "Č" → "C"
```
**IMPLEMENTATION**:
```python
import unicodedata
def normalize_diacritics(text: str) -> str:
"""Normalize diacritics to ASCII equivalents."""
# NFD decomposition separates base characters from combining marks
normalized = unicodedata.normalize('NFD', text)
# Remove combining marks (category 'Mn' = Mark, Nonspacing)
ascii_text = ''.join(c for c in normalized if unicodedata.category(c) != 'Mn')
return ascii_text
# Example
normalize_diacritics("VHSPAOČRZS") # Returns "VHSPAOCRZS"
```
**EXAMPLES**:
| Emic Name (with diacritics) | Abbreviation | Wrong |
|-----------------------------|--------------|-------|
| Vlastivědné muzeum v Šumperku | VMS | VMŠ |
| Österreichische Nationalbibliothek | ON | ÖN |
| Bibliothèque nationale de France | BNF | BNF (OK - è not in first letter) |
| Múzeum Łódzkie | ML | |
| Þjóðminjasafn Íslands | TI | ÞI |
**See**: `.opencode/ABBREVIATION_SPECIAL_CHAR_RULE.md` for complete documentation (covers both special characters and diacritics)
### 🚨 CRITICAL: Non-Latin Scripts MUST Be Transliterated Before Abbreviation 🚨
**When generating GHCID abbreviations from institution names in non-Latin scripts (Cyrillic, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Arabic, Hebrew, Greek, Devanagari, Thai, etc.), the emic name MUST first be transliterated to Latin characters using ISO or recognized standards.**
This rule affects **170 institutions** across **21 languages** with non-Latin writing systems.
**CORE PRINCIPLE**: The emic name is PRESERVED in original script in `custodian_name.emic_name`. Transliteration is only used for abbreviation generation.
**TRANSLITERATION STANDARDS BY SCRIPT**:
| Script | Languages | Standard | Example |
|--------|-----------|----------|---------|
| **Cyrillic** | ru, uk, bg, sr, kk | ISO 9:1995 | Институт Institut |
| **Chinese** | zh | Hanyu Pinyin (ISO 7098) | 东巴文化博物院 Dongba Wenhua Bowuyuan |
| **Japanese** | ja | Modified Hepburn | 国立博物館 Kokuritsu Hakubutsukan |
| **Korean** | ko | Revised Romanization | 독립기념관 Dongnip Ginyeomgwan |
| **Arabic** | ar, fa, ur | ISO 233-2/3 | المكتبة الوطنية al-Maktaba al-Wataniya |
| **Hebrew** | he | ISO 259-3 | ארכיון Arkhiyon |
| **Greek** | el | ISO 843 | Μουσείο Mouseio |
| **Devanagari** | hi, ne | ISO 15919 | जस्थ Rajasthana |
| **Bengali** | bn | ISO 15919 | াং Bangladesh |
| **Thai** | th | ISO 11940-2 | สำนักหอ Samnak Ho |
| **Armenian** | hy | ISO 9985 | Մdelays Matenadaran |
| **Georgian** | ka | ISO 9984 | ხელნაწერთა Khelnawerti |
**WORKFLOW**:
```
1. Emic Name (original script)
2. Transliterate to Latin (ISO standard)
3. Normalize diacritics (remove accents)
4. Skip articles/prepositions
5. Extract first letters → Abbreviation
```
**EXAMPLES**:
| Language | Emic Name | Transliterated | Abbreviation |
|----------|-----------|----------------|--------------|
| **Russian** | Институт восточных рукописей РАН | Institut Vostochnykh Rukopisey RAN | IVRR |
| **Chinese** | 东巴文化博物院 | Dongba Wenhua Bowuyuan | DWB |
| **Korean** | 독립기념관 | Dongnip Ginyeomgwan | DG |
| **Hindi** | जस्थ प्रच्यविद्य प्रतिष्ठ | Rajasthana Pracyavidya Pratishthana | RPP |
| **Arabic** | المكتبة الوطنية للمملكة المغربية | al-Maktaba al-Wataniya lil-Mamlaka | MWMM |
| **Hebrew** | ארכיון הסיפור העממי בישראל | Arkhiyon ha-Sipur ha-Amami | ASAY |
| **Greek** | Αρχαιολογικό Μουσείο Θεσσαλονίκης | Archaiologiko Mouseio Thessalonikis | AMT |
**SCRIPT-SPECIFIC SKIP WORDS**:
| Language | Skip Words (Articles/Prepositions) |
|----------|-------------------------------------|
| **Arabic** | al- (the), bi-, li-, fi- (prepositions) |
| **Hebrew** | ha- (the), ve- (and), be-, le-, me- |
| **Persian** | -e, -ye (ezafe connector), va (and) |
| **CJK** | None (particles integral to meaning) |
**IMPLEMENTATION**:
```python
from transliteration import transliterate_for_abbreviation
# Input: emic name in non-Latin script + language code
emic_name = "Институт восточных рукописей РАН"
lang = "ru"
# Step 1: Transliterate to Latin using ISO standard
latin = transliterate_for_abbreviation(emic_name, lang)
# Result: "Institut Vostochnykh Rukopisey RAN"
# Step 2: Apply standard abbreviation extraction
abbreviation = extract_abbreviation_from_name(latin, skip_words={'vostochnykh'})
# Result: "IVRRAN"
```
**GRANDFATHERING POLICY**: Existing abbreviations from 817 UNESCO MoW custodians are grandfathered. This transliteration standard applies only to **NEW custodians** created after December 2025.
**See**: `.opencode/TRANSLITERATION_STANDARDS.md` for complete ISO standards, mapping tables, and Python implementation
---
GHCID uses a **four-identifier strategy** for maximum flexibility and transparency:
### Four Identifier Formats
1. **UUID v5 (SHA-1)** - **PRIMARY** persistent identifier
- Deterministic (same GHCID string same UUID)
- RFC 4122 standard, universal library support
- Transparent algorithm (anyone can verify)
- Field: `ghcid_uuid`
2. **UUID v8 (SHA-256)** - Secondary persistent identifier (future-proofing)
- Deterministic with stronger cryptographic hash
- SOTA security compliance
- Field: `ghcid_uuid_sha256`
3. **UUID v7** - Database record ID ONLY (NOT for persistent identification)
- Time-ordered for database performance
- NOT deterministic (different each time)
- Use for database primary keys, NOT for citations or cross-system references
- Field: `record_id`
4. **Numeric (64-bit)** - Compact identifier for CSV exports
- Deterministic (SHA-256 64-bit integer)
- Database optimization, spreadsheet-friendly
- Field: `ghcid_numeric`
### Critical Understanding: UUID v5 is Primary
**Why UUID v5 (SHA-1) over UUID v8 (SHA-256)?**
The primary identifier is **UUID v5** because:
- **Transparency** - Anyone can verify using standard `uuid.uuid5()` function
- **Reproducibility** - No custom algorithm to share, RFC 4122 defines it
- **Interoperability** - Every programming language has built-in UUID v5 support
- **Community Trust** - Public, standardized algorithm builds confidence
**SHA-1 Safety for Identifiers:**
SHA-1 is deprecated for **cryptographic security** (digital signatures, TLS, passwords) but **appropriate for identifier generation**:
- Heritage institution identifiers are **non-adversarial** (no attacker trying to forge museum IDs)
- 128-bit collision resistance is sufficient (P(collision) 1.5×10^-29 for 1M institutions)
- RFC 4122 (UUID v5) remains active standard (not deprecated by IETF)
- See **[Why GHCID Uses UUID v5 and SHA-1](docs/WHY_UUID_V5_SHA1.md)** for detailed rationale
**Future-Proofing:**
- We generate **both UUID v5 and UUID v8** for every institution
- Can migrate to SHA-256 primary if RFC 4122 is updated
- Both are deterministic - no data loss in migration
### When Extracting Data
Agents should generate ALL four identifiers for every institution:
```yaml
# Example extraction output
- id: https://w3id.org/heritage/custodian/br/bnb-001
name: Biblioteca Nacional do Brasil
ghcid: BR-RJ-RIO-L-BNB
ghcid_uuid: "550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440000" # UUID v5 - PRIMARY
ghcid_uuid_sha256: "a1b2c3d4-e5f6-8a1b-9c2d-3e4f5a6b7c8d" # UUID v8 - Secondary
ghcid_numeric: 213324328442227739 # 64-bit numeric
# Note: UUID v7 (record_id) generated at database insertion, not during extraction
```
### GHCID Collision Handling for AI Agents
**CRITICAL**: When extracting heritage institution data, AI agents MUST understand and apply temporal collision resolution rules to maintain PID stability.
#### The Collision Problem
Multiple institutions may generate the same base GHCID (before name suffix addition):
- Two museums in Amsterdam abbreviated "SM": `NL-NH-AMS-M-SM`
- Two historical societies in Utrecht: `NL-UT-UTR-S-HK`
- Two libraries in São Paulo abbreviated "BM": `BR-SP-SAO-L-BM`
#### Decision Tree for Collision Resolution
When extracting data, agents should follow this decision process:
```
1. Generate base GHCID (without name suffix)
2. Check if base GHCID exists in published dataset
NO → Use base GHCID as-is, record extraction_date
YES → Temporal priority check
3. Compare extraction_date with existing publication_date
SAME DATE (batch import) → First Batch Collision
├─ ALL institutions get name suffixes
├─ Convert native language name to snake_case
└─ Append to GHCID: NL-NH-AMS-M-SM-stedelijk_museum_amsterdam
LATER DATE (historical addition) → Historical Addition
├─ PRESERVE existing GHCID (no modification)
├─ ONLY new institution gets name suffix
└─ New GHCID: NL-NH-AMS-M-SM-science_museum_amsterdam
```
#### Implementation Rules for Agents
**Rule 1: Always Track Provenance Timestamp**
```yaml
provenance:
data_source: CONVERSATION_NLP
data_tier: TIER_4_INFERRED
extraction_date: "2025-11-15T14:30:00Z" # ← REQUIRED for collision detection
extraction_method: "AI agent NER extraction"
confidence_score: 0.92
```
**Rule 2: Detect Collisions by Base GHCID**
Before adding name suffixes, group institutions by base GHCID:
```python
# Collision detection pseudocode for agents
base_ghcid = generate_base_ghcid(institution) # Without name suffix
existing_records = published_dataset.filter(base_ghcid=base_ghcid)
if len(existing_records) > 0:
# Collision detected - apply temporal priority
apply_collision_resolution(institution, existing_records)
```
**Rule 3: First Batch - ALL Get Name Suffixes**
If ALL colliding institutions have the **same** `extraction_date`:
```yaml
# Example: 2025-11-01 batch import discovers two institutions
- name: Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam
ghcid: NL-NH-AMS-M-SM-stedelijk_museum_amsterdam # Gets name suffix
provenance:
extraction_date: "2025-11-01T10:00:00Z"
- name: Science Museum Amsterdam
ghcid: NL-NH-AMS-M-SM-science_museum_amsterdam # Gets name suffix
provenance:
extraction_date: "2025-11-01T10:00:00Z" # Same date = first batch
```
**Rule 4: Historical Addition - ONLY New Gets Name Suffix**
If new institution's `extraction_date` is **later** than existing record:
```yaml
# EXISTING (2025-11-01, already published):
- name: Hermitage Amsterdam
ghcid: NL-NH-AMS-M-HM # ← NO CHANGE (PID stability!)
provenance:
extraction_date: "2025-11-01T10:00:00Z"
# NEW (2025-11-15, historical addition):
- name: Historical Museum Amsterdam
ghcid: NL-NH-AMS-M-HM-historical_museum_amsterdam # ← ONLY new gets name suffix
provenance:
extraction_date: "2025-11-15T14:30:00Z"
```
#### Name Suffix Generation
**Converting institution names to snake_case suffixes:**
```python
import re
import unicodedata
def generate_name_suffix(native_name: str) -> str:
"""Convert native language institution name to snake_case suffix.
Examples:
"Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam" → "stedelijk_museum_amsterdam"
"Musée d'Orsay" → "musee_dorsay"
"Österreichische Nationalbibliothek" → "osterreichische_nationalbibliothek"
"""
# Normalize unicode (NFD decomposition) and remove diacritics
normalized = unicodedata.normalize('NFD', native_name)
ascii_name = ''.join(c for c in normalized if unicodedata.category(c) != 'Mn')
# Convert to lowercase
lowercase = ascii_name.lower()
# Remove apostrophes, commas, and other punctuation
no_punct = re.sub(r"[''`\",.:;!?()[\]{}]", '', lowercase)
# Replace spaces and hyphens with underscores
underscored = re.sub(r'[\s\-]+', '_', no_punct)
# Remove any remaining non-alphanumeric characters (except underscores)
clean = re.sub(r'[^a-z0-9_]', '', underscored)
# Collapse multiple underscores
final = re.sub(r'_+', '_', clean).strip('_')
return final
```
**Name suffix rules**:
- Use the institution's **full official name** in its **native language**
- Transliterate non-Latin scripts to ASCII (e.g., Pinyin for Chinese)
- Remove all diacritics (é e, ö o, ñ n)
- Remove punctuation (apostrophes, commas, periods)
- Replace spaces with underscores
- All lowercase
#### GHCID History Tracking
When name suffix is added to resolve collision, update `ghcid_history`:
```yaml
ghcid_history:
- ghcid: NL-NH-AMS-M-HM-historical_museum_amsterdam # Current (with name suffix)
ghcid_numeric: 789012345678
valid_from: "2025-11-15T14:30:00Z" # When name suffix added
valid_to: null
reason: "Name suffix added to resolve collision with existing NL-NH-AMS-M-HM (Hermitage Amsterdam)"

#### PID Stability Principle - "Cool URIs Don't Change"
**NEVER modify a published GHCID.** Once exported to RDF, JSON-LD, or CSV, a GHCID becomes a persistent identifier that may be:
- **Cited in academic papers** - Journal articles referencing heritage collections
- **Used in external APIs** - Third-party systems querying our data
- **Embedded in linked data** - RDF triples in knowledge graphs
- **Referenced in finding aids** - Archival descriptions linking to institutions
Changing a published GHCID breaks these external references. Per W3C "Cool URIs Don't Change":
- **Correct**: Add name suffix to NEW institution (historical addition)
- **WRONG**: Retroactively add name suffix to EXISTING published GHCID
#### Error Handling for Agents
**Scenario 1: Missing Provenance Timestamp**
```python
if 'extraction_date' not in institution['provenance']:
# Use current timestamp as fallback
institution['provenance']['extraction_date'] = datetime.now(timezone.utc).isoformat()
# Log warning for manual review
log.warning(f"Missing extraction_date for {institution['name']}, using current time")
```
**Scenario 2: Multiple Historical Additions**
```python
# Three institutions generate NL-UT-UTR-S-HK
# Extraction dates: 2025-11-01, 2025-11-15, 2025-12-01
# Result:
# 2025-11-01: NL-UT-UTR-S-HK (first, no name suffix)
# 2025-11-15: NL-UT-UTR-S-HK-historische_kring_utrecht (second, gets name suffix)
# 2025-12-01: NL-UT-UTR-S-HK-heemkundige_kring_utrecht (third, gets name suffix)
```
**Scenario 3: Collision Resolution with Name Suffix**
```python
if collision_detected:
# Generate name suffix from native language name
name_suffix = generate_name_suffix(institution['name'])
# Append to base GHCID
ghcid = f"{base_ghcid}-{name_suffix}" # e.g., NL-NH-AMS-M-HM-historical_museum_amsterdam
# Record collision resolution
institution['provenance']['notes'] = (
f"Name suffix added to resolve collision with existing {base_ghcid}."
)
```
#### Validation Checklist for Agents
Before publishing extracted data, verify:
- [ ] All institutions have `extraction_date` in provenance metadata
- [ ] Collisions detected by grouping on base GHCID (without name suffix)
- [ ] First batch collisions: ALL instances have name suffixes
- [ ] Historical additions: ONLY new instances have name suffixes
- [ ] No published GHCIDs modified (PID stability test)
- [ ] GHCID history entries created with valid temporal ordering
- [ ] Name suffixes derived from native language institution names
- [ ] Collision reasons documented in `ghcid_history`
#### Example Extraction Prompts for Agents
**Prompt Template for NLP Extraction**:
```
Extract heritage institutions from this conversation about [REGION] GLAM institutions.
For EACH institution:
1. Generate base GHCID using geographic location and institution type
2. Check for collisions with previously published GHCIDs
3. Apply temporal priority rule:
- If collision with same extraction_date → First Batch (all get name suffixes)
- If collision with earlier publication_date → Historical Addition (only new gets name suffix)
4. Generate snake_case name suffix from native language institution name
5. Create GHCID history entry documenting collision resolution
6. Include extraction_date in provenance metadata
Output: LinkML-compliant YAML with complete collision handling
```
**Prompt Template for CSV Parsing**:
```
Parse this heritage institution CSV file dated [DATE].
All rows have the same extraction_date ([DATE]).
If multiple institutions generate the same base GHCID:
- This is a FIRST BATCH collision
- ALL colliding institutions MUST receive name suffixes
- Generate name suffix from institution's native language name
- Document collision in ghcid_history
Output: YAML with collision resolution applied
```
#### Testing Strategies for Collision Handling
**Unit Test: First Batch Collision**
```python
def test_first_batch_collision():
"""Two institutions extracted same day with same base GHCID."""
institutions = [
{
'name': 'Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam',
'base_ghcid': 'NL-NH-AMS-M-SM',
'identifiers': [{'identifier_scheme': 'Wikidata', 'identifier_value': 'Q621531'}],
'provenance': {'extraction_date': '2025-11-01T10:00:00Z'}
},
{
'name': 'Science Museum Amsterdam',
'base_ghcid': 'NL-NH-AMS-M-SM',
'identifiers': [{'identifier_scheme': 'Wikidata', 'identifier_value': 'Q98765432'}],
'provenance': {'extraction_date': '2025-11-01T10:00:00Z'}
}
]
resolved = resolve_collisions(institutions)
# Both should have name suffixes
assert resolved[0]['ghcid'] == 'NL-NH-AMS-M-SM-stedelijk_museum_amsterdam'
assert resolved[1]['ghcid'] == 'NL-NH-AMS-M-SM-science_museum_amsterdam'
```
**Unit Test: Historical Addition**
```python
def test_historical_addition():
"""New institution added later with same base GHCID."""
published = {
'name': 'Hermitage Amsterdam',
'ghcid': 'NL-NH-AMS-M-HM', # Already published
'provenance': {'extraction_date': '2025-11-01T10:00:00Z'}
}
new_institution = {
'name': 'Historical Museum Amsterdam',
'base_ghcid': 'NL-NH-AMS-M-HM', # Collision!
'identifiers': [{'identifier_scheme': 'Wikidata', 'identifier_value': 'Q17339437'}],
'provenance': {'extraction_date': '2025-11-15T14:30:00Z'}
}
resolved = resolve_collision(new_institution, published_dataset=[published])
# Published GHCID unchanged
assert published['ghcid'] == 'NL-NH-AMS-M-HM'
# New institution gets name suffix
assert resolved['ghcid'] == 'NL-NH-AMS-M-HM-historical_museum_amsterdam'
# GHCID history created
assert len(resolved['ghcid_history']) == 2
assert resolved['ghcid_history'][0]['ghcid'] == 'NL-NH-AMS-M-HM-historical_museum_amsterdam'
```
