[Exchange] Back-fill Resource Metrics for Hypotheses
Task ID: q02-e2-E3B0F52A
Priority: P88
Status: In Progress
Goal
Calculate and populate resource usage metrics (tokens_used, kg_edges_generated, citations_count) for all 139 existing hypotheses. These metrics are essential for the Resource Economics quest and enable cost-benefit analysis of hypothesis generation.
Acceptance Criteria
☑ tokens_used calculated from debate_rounds for each hypothesis's analysis
☑ kg_edges_generated counted from knowledge_edges table by analysis_id
☑ citations_count extracted from evidence_for and evidence_against fields
☑ All 142 hypotheses updated with computed metrics
☑ Database schema includes these columns (verified existing)
☑ Verification query shows populated data
Approach
Check current database schema for hypotheses table
Create migration if columns are missing
Query all hypotheses and their associated analyses
For each hypothesis:
- Sum tokens_used from debate_rounds for that analysis_id
- Count knowledge_edges where analysis_id matches
- Parse and count PMIDs in evidence_for and evidence_against
Update hypotheses table with calculated values
Verify results with sample queriesTechnical Details
Data Sources:
debate_rounds.tokens_used → aggregate by session_id → map to analysis_id
knowledge_edges.analysis_id → count edges per analysis
hypotheses.evidence_for/against → parse PMID references
SQL Approach:
-- Tokens used per analysis
SELECT analysis_id, SUM(tokens_used)
FROM debate_sessions ds
JOIN debate_rounds dr ON ds.session_id = dr.session_id
GROUP BY analysis_id
-- KG edges per analysis
SELECT analysis_id, COUNT(*)
FROM knowledge_edges
GROUP BY analysis_id
-- Citations: parse JSON/text fields for PMIDs

- Started task: Backfill resource metrics for 142 hypotheses
- Created spec file with approach
- Checked schema: columns already exist (tokens_used, kg_edges_generated, citations_count)
- Created backfill_hypothesis_metrics.py script
- Fixed schema references (debate_sessions.id vs session_id)
- Fixed PMID extraction to handle JSON format in evidence fields
- Ran backfill successfully
- Results:
- 142 total hypotheses
- 118 (83%) with tokens_used data, totaling ~997K tokens
- 7 (4%) with kg_edges_generated data, totaling 301 edges
- 130 (91%) with citations_count data, totaling 549 citations
- Updated 138 hypotheses in final run
- Task complete: All resource metrics populated
