Refactor agent provenance so that the decision (thought + tool
selection) and the result (observation) are separate DAG entities:
Question ← Analysis+ToolUse ← Observation ← ... ← Conclusion
Analysis gains tg:ToolUse as a mixin RDF type and is emitted
before tool execution via an on_action callback in react().
This ensures sub-traces (e.g. GraphRAG) appear after their
parent Analysis in the streaming event order.
Observation becomes a standalone prov:Entity with tg:Observation
type, emitted after tool execution. The linear DAG chain runs
through Observation — subsequent iterations and the Conclusion
derive from it, not from the Analysis.
message_id is populated on streaming AgentResponse for thought
and observation chunks, using the provenance URI of the entity
being built. This lets clients group streamed chunks by entity.
Wire changes:
- provenance/agent.py: Add ToolUse type, new
agent_observation_triples(), remove observation from iteration
- agent_manager.py: Add on_action callback between reason() and
tool execution
- orchestrator/pattern_base.py: Split emit, wire message_id,
chain through observation URIs
- orchestrator/react_pattern.py: Emit Analysis via on_action
before tool runs
- agent/react/service.py: Same for non-orchestrator path
- api/explainability.py: New Observation class, updated dispatch
and chain walker
- api/types.py: Add message_id to AgentThought/AgentObservation
- cli: Render Observation separately, [analysis: tool] labels
Introduce an agent orchestrator service that supports three
execution patterns (ReAct, plan-then-execute, supervisor) with
LLM-based meta-routing to select the appropriate pattern and task
type per request. Update the agent schema to support
orchestration fields (correlation, sub-agents, plan steps) and
remove legacy response fields (answer, thought, observation).
Embed edge descriptions and compute cosine similarity against grounding
concepts to reduce the number of edges sent to expensive LLM scoring.
Controlled by edge_score_limit parameter (default 30), skipped when edge
count is already below the limit.
Also plumbs edge_score_limit and edge_limit parameters end-to-end:
- CLI args (--edge-score-limit, --edge-limit) in both invoke and service
- Socket client: fix parameter mapping to use hyphenated wire-format keys
- Flow API, message translator, gateway all pass through correctly
- Explainable code path (_question_explainable_api) now forwards all params
- Default edge_score_limit changed from 50 to 30 based on typical subgraph
sizes
Add unified explainability support and librarian storage for all retrieval engines
Implements consistent explainability/provenance tracking
across GraphRAG, DocumentRAG, and Agent retrieval
engines. All large content (answers, thoughts, observations)
is now stored in librarian rather than as inline literals in
the knowledge graph.
Explainability API:
- New explainability.py module with entity classes (Question,
Exploration, Focus, Synthesis, Analysis, Conclusion) and
ExplainabilityClient
- Quiescence-based eventual consistency handling for trace
fetching
- Content fetching from librarian with retry logic
CLI updates:
- tg-invoke-graph-rag -x/--explainable flag returns
explain_id
- tg-invoke-document-rag -x/--explainable flag returns
explain_id
- tg-invoke-agent -x/--explainable flag returns explain_id
- tg-list-explain-traces uses new explainability API
- tg-show-explain-trace handles all three trace types
Agent provenance:
- Records session, iterations (think/act/observe), and conclusion
- Stores thoughts and observations in librarian with document
references
- New predicates: tg:thoughtDocument, tg:observationDocument
DocumentRAG provenance:
- Records question, exploration (chunk retrieval), and synthesis
- Stores answers in librarian with document references
Schema changes:
- AgentResponse: added explain_id, explain_graph fields
- RetrievalResponse: added explain_id, explain_graph fields
- agent_iteration_triples: supports thought_document_id,
observation_document_id
Update tests.
Terminology Rename, and named-graphs for explainability data
Changed terminology:
- session -> question
- retrieval -> exploration
- selection -> focus
- answer -> synthesis
- uris.py: Renamed query_session_uri → question_uri,
retrieval_uri → exploration_uri, selection_uri → focus_uri,
answer_uri → synthesis_uri
- triples.py: Renamed corresponding triple generation functions with
updated labels ("GraphRAG question", "Exploration", "Focus",
"Synthesis")
- namespaces.py: Added named graph constants GRAPH_DEFAULT,
GRAPH_SOURCE, GRAPH_RETRIEVAL
- init.py: Updated exports
- graph_rag.py: Updated to use new terminology
- invoke_graph_rag.py: Updated CLI to display new stage names
(Question, Exploration, Focus, Synthesis)
Query-Time Explainability → Named Graph
- triples.py: Added set_graph() helper function to set named graph
on triples
- graph_rag.py: All explainability triples now use GRAPH_RETRIEVAL
named graph
- rag.py: Explainability triples stored in user's collection (not
separate collection) with named graph
Extraction Provenance → Named Graph
- relationships/extract.py: Provenance triples use GRAPH_SOURCE
named graph
- definitions/extract.py: Provenance triples use GRAPH_SOURCE
named graph
- chunker.py: Provenance triples use GRAPH_SOURCE named graph
- pdf_decoder.py: Provenance triples use GRAPH_SOURCE named graph
CLI Updates
- show_graph.py: Added -g/--graph option to filter by named graph and
--show-graph to display graph column
Also:
- Fix knowledge core schemas
Base Service (trustgraph-base/trustgraph/base/embeddings_service.py):
- Changed on_request to use request.texts
FastEmbed Processor
(trustgraph-flow/trustgraph/embeddings/fastembed/processor.py):
- on_embeddings(texts, model=None) now processes full batch efficiently
- Returns [[v.tolist()] for v in vecs] - list of vector sets
Ollama Processor (trustgraph-flow/trustgraph/embeddings/ollama/processor.py):
- on_embeddings(texts, model=None) passes list directly to Ollama
- Returns [[embedding] for embedding in embeds.embeddings]
EmbeddingsClient (trustgraph-base/trustgraph/base/embeddings_client.py):
- embed(texts, timeout=300) accepts list of texts

- create_multipart_upload() - initializes S3 multipart upload, returns
upload_id
- upload_part() - uploads a single part, returns etag

content for large PDFs (>2MB)
- Deprecated tools (load_pdf.py, load_text.py): Added deprecation
