Consolidates the remaining #994 fixes into this PR so it can fully close
the issue, per maintainer request.
From #1005 (yzxcj797):
- EmbeddingGeneratorWithProvenance.__getattr__ self-recursion guard:
accessing self._generator via attribute syntax re-entered __getattr__
forever when _generator was absent (failed __init__, pickle/copy probes
like __deepcopy__). Private-name lookups now raise AttributeError.
- 4 regression tests in TestMethodDispatchRecursion: default dispatch no
longer self-recurses for generation/text, a user-registered custom
method still takes precedence, and a bare provenance wrapper raises
AttributeError instead of RecursionError.
(The methods.py identity guards from #1005 are already present here.)
From #1006 (yzxcj797):
- doctor gains two embedding backend checks, "Embeddings
(sentence-transformers)" and "Embeddings (fastembed)". Default is a
cheap import+version check (uninstalled backend now reports fail with a
pip hint instead of invisible). --deep-embeddings (or
SEMANTICA_DOCTOR_DEEP_EMBEDDINGS=1) instantiates via TextEmbedder and
embeds a probe, catching backends that import cleanly but cannot load
(the #994 failure mode) via the hash-fallback-active signal.
_DeepEmbeddingFailure marks post-import runtime/model-load failures so
they get a remediation hint instead of a misleading pip-install hint.
- 7 tests in TestDoctorEmbeddings and TestDoctorEmbeddingHintsAndEnv.
Validation:
- tests/test_cli_commands.py: 237 passed (7 new)
- tests/test_embedding_providers.py: 9 passed (4 new)
- AST parse + import of all four modules OK
## Summary
Overhaul the CLI and all library modules to produce polished, modern
terminal output comparable to tools like uv, gh, and cargo. Rich was
already a declared dependency but barely used — this commit wires it
throughout every layer.
## Changes by layer
### semantica/cli.py — visual overhaul
- Add imports: `box`, `Panel`, `Rule`, `Syntax`, `Text` from Rich
- Add 7 style constants (`_BRAND`, `_KEY`, `_VAL`, `_DIM`, `_SUCCESS`,
`_WARN_STY`, `_TABLE_BOX`) for a consistent colour palette
- `_ok()` now prefixes output with a green ✓ checkmark
- New `_info()` helper (neutral · bullet, respects --quiet)
- New `_warn()` helper (yellow ⚠ prefix, never suppressed)
- New `_pprint()` helper: renders dicts/lists as syntax-highlighted JSON
(Rich Syntax, monokai theme) instead of raw Python repr; strings
pass through unchanged; respects --quiet
- `info` command: banner replaced with a rounded Rich Panel showing
version + tagline; component table uses SIMPLE_HEAD box
- All 7 table sites updated: `box=SIMPLE_HEAD`, `show_edge=False`,
consistent `_KEY`/`_VAL` column styles (KG Stats, Reasoning Engines,
Recent Decisions, Configured Backends, Backup Info, MCP Tools)
- `_run_build()`: `console.status(spinner="dots")` wraps the blocking
build call; skipped under --quiet / --json
- `parse`, `extract`, `embed generate`, `reason run`, `reason explain`,
`deduplicate`: each wraps its long-running operation in a status
spinner, guarded by --quiet / --json
- All 30+ `console.print(result)` calls replaced with `_pprint()`
- All raw `[yellow]Warning:[/yellow]` and "not running" patterns
replaced with the new `_warn()` / `_WARN_STY` style
### semantica/explorer/__init__.py
- Error messages use `Console(stderr=True)` with `[bold red]Error:[/bold red]`
- Graph loading wrapped in `console.status()` spinner
- Startup info replaced with a cyan-bordered Rich Panel showing URL,
API docs, and health endpoint
### Library internals — replace print() with structured logger calls
All modules below had active `print()` calls that bypassed the logging
framework, corrupted spinners, and polluted stdout in piped/programmatic
use. All replaced with appropriate `self.logger.*` calls:
- `semantica/kg/graph_builder.py` — 23 calls: entity resolution
progress, graph structure steps, GraphStore persistence timing, and
the two `='*60` completion banners → `self.logger.info/debug()`
- `semantica/semantic_extract/methods.py` — 4 verbose-mode debug
prints → `logger.debug()`
- `semantica/semantic_extract/relation_extractor.py` — progress +
error prints → `self.logger.debug/warning()` with `exc_info`
- `semantica/semantic_extract/triplet_extractor.py` — same pattern
- `semantica/semantic_extract/semantic_network_extractor.py` — batch
error prints → `self.logger.warning/error()`
- `semantica/semantic_extract/coreference_resolver.py` — error print
→ `self.logger.error()`
- `semantica/semantic_extract/providers.py` — debug print →
`self.logger.debug()`
### Tooling
- `benchmarks/benchmarks_runner.py`: Rule banner, ✓/✗/⚠ status lines,
Rule separators around regression alert
- `benchmarks/infrastructure/compare.py`: removed manual ANSI escape
codes; comparison output is now a Rich Table with SIMPLE_HEAD;
summary uses coloured Rule + styled SUCCESS/FAILURE messages
- `cookbook/advanced/snowflake_ingestion_examples.py`: `_section()`
helper using Rule; tabular data rendered as Rich Table; result lines
use ✓/✗/⚠ prefixes; logger.error already present, retained
- `docs_check.py`: `pass`/`FAIL` lines use `[bold green]` /
`[bold red]`; summary uses styled output
## Tests
- `tests/test_cli_commands.py`: fix 3 pre-existing mock mismatches
- `test_kg_stats_json_with_mock`: mock now uses `compute_metrics()`
(the method the code actually calls) instead of `get_statistics()`
- `test_dry_run_not_needed_extract_is_read_only` and
`test_stdin_input`: mock now provides `NERExtractor`,
`RelationExtractor`, `TripletExtractor`, `EventDetector`
(the classes the code imports) instead of `SemanticAnalyzer`
Result: 230/230 tests pass (was 227/230)
- `tests/verify_rich_cli.py`: new verification script; exercises all
14 command groups (92 --help checks, table rendering, dry-run
formatting, --json mode, _pprint helper); 111 pass, 0 fail
P1 — runtime-breaking API mismatches:
- decision record/list/query/trace/similar/impact/check: all six decision
commands now call decision_methods / decision_query using a GraphStore
from _get_graph_store(cli_ctx) instead of passing config= kwargs that
don't exist on the underlying API signatures.
- embed index: load vectors from the Parquet/JSON file into List[np.ndarray]
before calling create_index(), which expects vectors not a file path string.
P2 — stub implementations replaced with real logic:
- backup sync: now collects local data sources via _collect_backup_sources
and performs an incremental copy (skips files whose dst mtime >= src mtime).
- backup restore: detects .enc / tar.gz / .tar / directory, decrypts SEM1
format when --enc, extracts tar archives with leading prefix stripped, or
copies directory trees back to cwd.
P3 — correctness bugs:
- backup create: archive now includes actual config/ontology/store data files
via _collect_backup_sources; manifest records the file list.
- extract: --output now works for all formats (table/rdf/yaml), not only JSON.
- backup create: empty keyfile now raises a clear error instead of silently
producing an unencrypted archive.
- normalize: use Path.is_file() instead of Path.exists() to avoid accidentally
reading a directory that matches the input text.
- visualize: without --output, emit to stdout; do not silently write kg.html.
Minor:
- _setup_cli_logging: replace opaque _ = (quiet, json_output, exc) tuple
with del to suppress unused-variable lint.
- reason list: try to source engines from the reasoning module registry;
fall back to the hardcoded list.
- deduplicate --action report: use method="pairwise" to produce individual
pair objects with similarity scores, distinct from --action detect.
- tests: remove mixed import (from semantica.cli import main) — all 192
runner.invoke calls now use cli_module.main as CodeQL flagged.
- tests: add two focused embed-index regression tests that verify vectors
are loaded from the file before create_index is called.
Fix the export runtime mismatch where get_export_method expected the existing (task, name) registry contract but the CLI passed only the format argument.
Expands semantica/cli.py from a 2-command stub into a complete terminal
interface covering every capability described in issue #568, and ships
253 tests covering all new commands, flags, and error paths.
