+# feat: Knowledge Engineering Module Enhancements and Testing
+
+## 📝 Description
+This PR significantly enhances the stability, test coverage, and documentation of the `knowledge-engineering` module and related components (`ontology`, `visualization`, `conflicts`, etc.). It addresses critical bugs preventing pipeline execution and establishes a comprehensive testing baseline.
+
+## 🚀 Key Changes
+
+### 1. 🧪 Comprehensive Unit Testing
+Added and verified over **100+ new unit tests** across multiple modules to ensure robustness:
+- **Knowledge Graph (`semantica.kg`)**:
+  - `test_core_components.py`: Validates `GraphBuilder`, `EntityResolver`, `GraphValidator`, `ProvenanceTracker`.
+  - `test_algorithms.py`: Covers `CentralityCalculator`, `CommunityDetector`, `ConnectivityAnalyzer`.
+- **Ontology (`semantica.ontology`)**:
+  - `test_ontology_classes.py`: Tests core ontology generation logic.
+  - `test_ontology_advanced.py`: Validates validation, metrics, and complex class relationships.
+- **Visualization (`semantica.visualization`)**:
+  - Added tests for `GraphVisualizer` and interactive plotting components.
+- **Data Handling**:
+  - `semantica.split`: Added `test_splitter.py`.
+  - `semantica.parse`: Added `test_parser.py` (with fixes for `pathlib` mocking).
+  - `semantica.vector_store` & `semantica.triple_store`: Enhanced with full CRUD operation tests.
+- **Utilities**:
+  - `semantica.seed`: Validated seed management.
+  - `semantica.utils`: Verified shared utility functions.
+
+### 2. 🐛 Bug Fixes & Stability Improvements
+- **Conflict Resolution**: Implemented a placeholder `resolve_conflicts` method in `ConflictDetector` to unblock pipeline execution failures where this method was missing.
+- **Inference Engine**: Fixed `TypeError: unhashable type: 'dict'` by handling unhashable facts in `InferenceEngine`.
+- **Circular Imports**: Resolved circular dependency issues in `semantic_extract` by deferring imports.
+- **Test Infrastructure**:
+  - Fixed `test_cookbook_integration.py` by mocking MCP server connections (`httpx`/`requests`) to prevent WinError 10061.
+  - Fixed `pathlib.Path` mocking issues in parser tests.
+
+### 3. 📚 Documentation Updates
+- **`semantica/kg/kg_usage.md`**: Updated usage guide to reflect current capabilities and configuration options.
+- **`semantica/conflicts/conflicts_usage.md`**: Added documentation for the `resolve_conflicts` convenience method.
+
+## ✅ Verification
+- All new and existing unit tests pass.
+- `python -m unittest discover tests/kg` runs successfully.
+- Pipeline execution no longer crashes due to missing methods or unhashable types.
+
+## 📦 Related Issues
+- Fixes pipeline crashes during conflict resolution.
+- Addresses missing test coverage for core KG components.
