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
