Addresses recommendations from the UX developer's agent experience report.
Adds provenance predicates, DAG structure changes, error resilience, and
a published OWL ontology.
Explainability additions:
- Tool candidates: tg:toolCandidate on Analysis events lists the tools
visible to the LLM for each iteration (names only, descriptions in config)
- Termination reason: tg:terminationReason on Conclusion/Synthesis events
(final-answer, plan-complete, subagents-complete)
- Step counter: tg:stepNumber on iteration events
- Pattern decision: new tg:PatternDecision entity in the DAG between
session and first iteration, carrying tg:pattern and tg:taskType
- Latency: tg:llmDurationMs on Analysis events, tg:toolDurationMs on
Observation events
- Token counts on events: tg:inToken/tg:outToken/tg:llmModel on
Grounding, Focus, Synthesis, and Analysis events
- Tool/parse errors: tg:toolError on Observation events with tg:Error
mixin type. Parse failures return as error observations instead of
crashing the agent, giving it a chance to retry.
Envelope unification:
- Rename chunk_type to message_type across AgentResponse schema,
translator, SDK types, socket clients, CLI, and all tests.
Agent and RAG services now both use message_type on the wire.
Ontology:
- specs/ontology/trustgraph.ttl — OWL vocabulary covering all 26 classes,
7 object properties, and 36+ datatype properties including new predicates.
DAG structure tests:
- tests/unit/test_provenance/test_dag_structure.py verifies the
wasDerivedFrom chain for GraphRAG, DocumentRAG, and all three agent
patterns (react, plan, supervisor) including the pattern-decision link.
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
