The corpus had two parallel reverse-reference signals: the wiki/pages
entities_extracted blocks (Haiku page-level) and public.entity_mentions
(Sonnet chunk-level, ILIKE-matched). The entity page only consulted the
DB, so it showed "0 menções" for thousands of entities that were anchored
in pages or in cross-entity links the DB never indexed.
Resolved by collapsing all signals into the YAML frontmatter, which is
now the single runtime source for entity metadata.
scripts/maintain/42_sync_entity_stats.py walks every entity and writes:
mentioned_in: [...] # consolidated page refs
total_mentions: max(db, pages)
documents_count: max(db_docs, distinct page docs)
signal_sources:
db_chunks: int
page_refs: int
cross_refs: int
signal_strength: strong | weak | orphan | unverified
referenced_by: [[class/id]] # cross-entity backlinks
Outgoing wikilinks (e.g. OBJ.observed_in_event → EV) count toward the
entity's own cross_refs so anchored-but-not-mentioned entities don't
register as orphan.
OBJ canonical names like "7m long, 1.3m high, two rocket motors,
smooth flow, rotary drive null UAP (OBJ-EV1945-PEYERLSHOTDOWN-01)"
are rewritten to "Peyerl shot down UAP" derived from observed_in_event,
preserving the full description as an alias. --fix-obj-names did this
for every OBJ-* with >80 char canonical_name.
Default behaviour is conservative: --archive-only-junk archives only
single/double-char names and pure-numeric noise. Everything else stays
on disk with signal_strength marked, so the user can review later.
web/lib/retrieval/entity-pages.ts swapped from db-first to yaml-first.
The /e/[cls]/[id] page now reads counts straight from YAML and renders
a "força do sinal" badge with the per-source breakdown. Orphan entities
get a banner explaining they have no cross-references.
DB is still queried for ONE thing: the chunk text for preview cards on
the entity page, so we don't re-parse 21k markdown files on every render.
First-pass result: 9020 strong / 14520 weak / 10814 orphan; OBJ-EV1945-
PEYERLSHOTDOWN-01 now reads "Peyerl shot down UAP · fraca · 1 backlink"
in the live UI.
