Adds FileExtraction — what a machine made of a file: the text read off a photo, the transcript of a recording, the body of a document, or observations about what an image shows.

Why it needs to be its own record rather than fields on File: File is closed and has no place for extracted content, and a reading has provenance of its own — which model produced it, how confidently, and when. The same file may be read again later by a better model, and each reading is a separate record rather than an overwrite: a newer reading does not make an older one untrue about what was believed at the time.

A FileExtraction is always DERIVED — evidence about a file, never a fact about the world. Anything asserted on its basis should cite it.

Shape

  • kindocr | transcript | vision | extraction
  • text — the content verbatim when the reading IS text; never a summary, since the words are what cannot be recovered without paying to read the file again
  • observations[] — modelled on schema.org/Observation, so one file can yield many claims (a street photo carries a car, a road surface, shop signs, weather, a city) with measuredProperty reusing established schema.org property names and per-observation confidence
  • fileRef — the w3ds:// URI of the file that was read, so a reader can fetch the bytes and disagree
  • derivedFrom — the record this reading was captured alongside; the inverse of PersonalNote.derivedRecords
  • model, readAt, capturedBy — the provenance that makes a stale or discredited reading findable

Companion to #1100 (PersonalNote), which references extractions via derivedRecords.

Review Change Stack

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Adds a draft-07 FileExtraction JSON Schema. The schema supports OCR, transcripts, vision results, and structured-document parsing with provenance, source-file references, model metadata, timestamps, and archival state.

Changes

File extraction schema

Layer / File(s) Summary
FileExtraction contract
services/ontology/schemas/fileExtraction.json
Defines valid extraction kinds, optional text and provenance fields, confidence bounds, required identity/source/timestamp fields, and additional properties.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 8dc45

This adds a FileExtraction record schema, but the current definition permits semantically invalid records: extraction kind can disagree with text or observations, provenance can be missing, file references can be malformed, and archival state can be omitted. These gaps can make extracted content unreliable to interpret or trace, so the PR is not merge-ready until the schema or ingestion path enforces these contracts.

- Around line 41-43: Update the schema’s required-field definition to require
both model and capturedBy, preserving readAt’s existing requirement and ensuring
every extraction records model and application provenance. Do not leave either
field optional unless the schema explicitly defines a nullable unknown state.
- Around line 32-35: Update the fileRef schema property to enforce the complete
vault-specific w3ds:// URI grammar at validation time, not merely a string type.
Add the appropriate schema constraint (such as the established pattern or
equivalent URI validation rule) so malformed values like not-a-uri are rejected
while valid w3ds:// references remain accepted.
- Around line 44-46: Add isArchived to the required properties in the file
extraction schema so every record has an explicit archival state; retain its
existing boolean type and false default for validation/documentation.
- Around line 9-17: Update the schema’s kind/text/observations validation to
enforce the agreed payload matrix: OCR and transcript require string text,
vision requires null text, and extraction must use the appropriate
observations/text relationship. Add draft-07 if/then or oneOf branches while
preserving the existing kind enum and property definitions.

Enforce the kind payload matrix.

The schema accepts kind: "ocr" with text: null and kind: "vision" with a string text. Add draft-07 if/then or oneOf branches that enforce the agreed relationship between kind, text, and observations.

Validate the w3ds:// scheme.

fileRef accepts values such as not-a-uri because it only has a string type. This conflicts with the source-file URI contract in Line 34. Add a scheme constraint in the schema and validate the complete vault-specific URI grammar at write time.

Require or explicitly model missing provenance.

The required array omits model and capturedBy. A valid record can therefore have no model or application attribution. This conflicts with the objective that each extraction retains its own provenance and with the statement that model is needed to revisit stale readings. Require both fields, or make them nullable and define the unknown state.

Proposed required fields
-  "required": ["id", "kind", "readAt", "fileRef"],
+  "required": ["id", "kind", "readAt", "fileRef", "model", "capturedBy"],

Also applies to: 46-46
