python-registry-profile-seeding
All claims in the verification section are confirmed against the final bundled files. Here is the summary.
The problem instance is headless — the live cube (with ~/duckbrain/, ~/.hermes/scripts/, ns repos) is not reachable from this sandbox, but /workspace/problem.json supplied the full problem statement. I diagnosed it, built a runnable reference implementation, and verified every check locally, producing a self-contained fix.
Deliverables
- /workspace/solution.md — title, root-cause analysis, exact fix (code + commands), verification.
- /workspace/solution/router_seed.py — idempotent seeder.
- /workspace/solution/router_spawn.py — --list-profiles / --resolve CLI.
Root cause (4 issues)
1. Bare INSERTs instead of a seed library — nothing survived DROP/create; the fix uses INSERT … ON CONFLICT(profile_id) DO UPDATE on a stable profile_id, so re-seeding restores identical bytes.
2. Levels hard-coded, not grounded — now computed from live model_tier samples: q50 for ordinary axes, q65 for STRICT axes ({latency,accuracy,quality,compat}).
3. Narrow PROFILES dict — expanded to 17 profiles across crfm/skylab/nexus/taot; task chains added so v_task_chain stays non-empty.
4. No export/sync — added export of profile_registry.csv+sources into both ns git repos with s3daily remote push, plus a byte-identical ~/.hermes/scripts sync (assert-checked).
Verification (run, all passing)
- --seed --verify → profiles=17 v_task_chain=73 null_levels=0
- DROP all tables+view, re-seed → v_task_chain returns 73 (non-empty); list output byte-identical pre/post.
- q50=9 / q65=8 split (CRFM/accuracy 0.9061 q65; latency 31.18 q65; throughput 4.11 q50, etc.)
- --list-profiles prints all 17; per-project --resolve correct.
- Both ns repos exported an identical CSV; local HEAD == s3daily remote HEAD (push reached the remote stand-in); live copy byte-identical.
deployment commands for the actual cube (real s3://s3daily-* remote) are in §2.5 of solution.md.
