- refactoring-streamlit-data-loading.md: update test count
164/164 → 173/173 (7 new axis validation tests added)
- svd-component-labels-mismatch.md: SVD_THEMES moved from
explorer.py:434-611 → analysis/config.py:67+ per the
refactoring that extracted constants to analysis/config.py
- Add CANONICAL_RIGHT (PVV, FVD, JA21, SGP) and CANONICAL_LEFT frozensets
to analysis/config.py as the canonical source of truth
- Update analysis/svd_labels.py to import from config; re-export as
RIGHT_PARTIES/LEFT_PARTIES for backward compatibility
- Add build_window_party_scores helper to analysis/explorer_data.py
- Add 7 integration tests in tests/test_axis_political_orientation.py
validating that canonical right parties appear on the right side of SVD
axes (x=component 1, y=component 2) using real DuckDB data
- Add AGENTS.md with documented solutions reference
- Include SVD label convention (right-wing parties on right side)
- Document SVD insight: labels reflect voting patterns, not semantics
- Fix SQL verification example to use Python approach
Replaces static ideology CSV as primary axis classification signal with
per-year motion projection + Dutch keyword classifier. Adds axis-swap
logic so left-right is conventionally on X when present. Adds Option C
UI expander showing top motions per axis pole.
Add design for honest PCA axis labeling — validates each compass axis
against a party ideology reference CSV and labels dynamically (Links–Rechts,
Coalitie–Oppositie, or fallback) instead of hardcoding Left–Right always.
- Add 4 migration files: mp_votes, mp_metadata, svd_vectors, fused_embeddings
- Extend database.py with 5 new helper methods and table init
- Add pipeline/ package: extract_mp_votes, fetch_mp_metadata, text_pipeline,
svd_pipeline (with Procrustes alignment), fusion
- Add full test suite (17 tests) covering all pipeline modules and migrations
- Fix Procrustes alignment bug: scipy scale is a norm value, not a multiplier
- Fix DuckDB date type handling in test assertions (datetime.date vs string)
- Remove duckdb.py shim; tests now run against real duckdb + scipy via uv
