[Atlas] Add pathway diagrams to 20 hypotheses missing mechanism maps done

← Atlas
Many active hypotheses lack substantive pathway_diagram values. Mechanism maps make hypotheses inspectable and connect Agora claims to Atlas pathways. Verification: - 20 active hypotheses gain pathway_diagram content grounded in KG edges or cited mechanisms - Diagrams render as Mermaid or the existing pathway format without syntax errors - Remaining active hypotheses missing pathway diagrams is reduced Start by reading this task's spec. Select hypotheses from PostgreSQL (dbname=scidex user=scidex_app) with target_gene, target_pathway, or evidence-rich descriptions and empty pathway_diagram. Build compact mechanism diagrams from existing KG edges, citations, and hypothesis text. Validate diagram syntax and verify hypothesis detail pages still render.

Goal

Backfill pathway_diagram values for active hypotheses that lack them. Mechanism maps make
hypotheses inspectable and connect Agora claims to Atlas pathways. 177 active hypotheses
lacked substantive pathway_diagram values at start of quest.

Acceptance Criteria

☑ 20 active hypotheses gain pathway_diagram content grounded in KG edges or cited mechanisms
☑ Diagrams render as Mermaid or the existing pathway format without syntax errors
☑ Remaining active hypotheses missing pathway diagrams is <= 157

Approach

  • Select hypotheses with target gene, target pathway, or evidence-rich descriptions and empty pathway diagrams.
  • Build compact mechanism diagrams from existing KG edges, citations, and hypothesis text.
  • Validate diagram syntax and update the hypothesis rows.
  • Verify hypothesis detail pages still render.
  • Dependencies

    • 58230ac8-c32 - Atlas quest

    Dependents

    • Hypothesis inspection, Atlas entity context, and pathway-aware debates

    Work Log

    Iteration 10 - 2026-04-28 - Task 3175e86c backfill: 21 hypotheses, missing 143->122

    • Staleness check: Current DB has 143 proposed/open/active hypotheses with missing or short pathway_diagram values (103 active, 14 open, 26 proposed). Earlier work log entries reported zero real missing rows, but the current runtime DB still contains real open/active rows without diagrams, so this task remains live.
    • Scope for this iteration: Backfilled the top 21 non-test missing rows by composite_score, avoiding test% placeholders and rows with empty hypothesis content.
    • Work performed: Created backfill/backfill_pathway_diagrams_3175e86c_iter1.py with explicit Mermaid diagrams keyed by hypothesis id. Diagrams encode the named target genes/pathways from each hypothesis title/description/evidence, then update hypotheses.pathway_diagram plus last_mutated_at.
    • Hypotheses updated: h-alsmnd-870c6115d68c (EIF2S1/eIF2alpha ISR), h-alsmnd-9d62ae58bdc1 (RBM45 LLPS), h-alsmnd-c5d2e9c2edeb (SFPQ/paralog APA), h-alsmnd-9d07702213f0 (ATM/CHEK2/TP53 DDR), h-alsmnd-006d646506ab (HNRNPA2B1/STAU2 axonal RNA transport), h-alsmnd-e448328ae294 (GLE1 mRNA export), h-alsmnd-01446b71d93f (MATR3 nuclear bodies), h-alsmnd-54f981ca6a25 (TIA1 stress granules), hyp-lyso-snca-1d58cf205e1f (LAMP2A CMA LLPS), h-9923279def (PINK1/PRKN/TREM2 mitophagy), hyp-lyso-snca-3429d8065d63 (SNCA exosomal lysosomal proteome), h-3f9740bfa5 (SNCA/MAPT synaptic vesicle propagation), hyp-lyso-snca-3a610efd001e (TFEB/TFE3 lysosomal stress response), hyp-lyso-snca-c9e088045c26 (GBA1/Miro1 mitophagy blockade), hyp-lyso-snca-3f4d11c5e9e4 (GBA1/cathepsin modifier interaction), hyp-lyso-snca-548064db6357 (SNCA/LAMP2A/TorsinA CMA blockade), ec8b839c-6440-45dc-aff6-5edea1fd2d6d (TDP43/STMN2 cryptic exon), h-2fe683915d (GBA1/LAMP2A lysosomal acidification), h-92cfd75109 (NRF2 proteostatic convergence), hyp-lyso-snca-3577291fea07 (GBA1/SNX5 retromer feedback), hyp-lyso-snca-cf55ff77a38a (VPS35/GCase trafficking).
    • Validation: Script pre-validated 21 diagrams and post-validated 21 stored DB diagrams with validate_mermaid(); separate DB verification found post_validate_failures [].
    • Result: Missing pathway_diagram count for status IN ('proposed','open','active') moved 143 -> 122, meeting the <=123 target for this task slice.
    • Cross-layer note: The batch mostly covers ALS RNA/proteostasis mechanisms and lysosomal SNCA/GBA1 axes, strengthening Atlas mechanism inspectability for Agora/Exchange hypotheses without touching critical runtime files.

    Iteration 2 - 2026-04-27 - Task c15f66ad backfill: 25 hypotheses, missing 112→87

    • Staleness check: 112 hypotheses in status IN ('proposed','open','active') missing pathway_diagram (threshold < 20 chars). Confirmed task still live.
    • Rebased onto latest origin/main (ddf021827) cleanly.
    • Ran existing backfill/backfill_pathway_diagrams_c15f66ad.py (already committed in 880b70906) to add diagrams for top 25 by composite_score.

    Iteration 4 - 2026-04-27 - Slot minimax:76 - Task 9fc63687 backfill: 1 hypothesis, active 1→0

    • Staleness check: Verified task still live. Active hypotheses missing pathway_diagram: 1 (h-aging-h7-prs-aging-convergence). The test-pitch-1a6a8ca6 row has NULL id field (corrupt/malformed) and cannot be updated — it is not a real hypothesis.
    • Work performed: Inspected h-aging-h7-prs-aging-convergence — title "AD Polygenic Risk Score predicts transcriptomic aging acceleration in a dose-dependent manner". No KG edges found directly. Built mechanism diagram from evidence_for array: AD PRS → GWAS hit enrichment (OR=6.5) → 8 concordant AD aging genes (TREM2, TYROBP, APOE, CLU, C4B, PICALM, BIN1) → microglial/immune upregulation → CARS transcriptomic aging acceleration → earlier AD onset. Used same flowchart TD format as sibling hypotheses.
    • DB write: UPDATE hypotheses SET pathway_diagram = <diagram>, last_mutated_at = NOW() WHERE id = 'h-aging-h7-prs-aging-convergence'
    • Post-validate: Active missing pathway_diagram count: 1 → 0 ✓
