# Pipeline Roadmap — Reaching the Planned Architecture
This is the engineering breakdown for closing the gap between the **current**
pipeline and the **planned** architecture documented in
[`diagrams/planned/class.puml`](./diagrams/planned/class.puml) and
[`diagrams/planned/activity.puml`](./diagrams/planned/activity.puml). Nothing
in `diagrams/planned/` is implemented yet — this file tracks what it would
take to get there. For the current implementation, see
[README.md](./README.md).
Items are grouped by layer and roughly ordered by dependency: later groups
build on types and services introduced earlier.
The only concurrency in the current pipeline is the log dispatcher thread
(`main.cc` spawns it to drain a `BoundedChannel<LogEntry>` into spdlog for the
whole run). Sampling, enrichment, generation, and export all happen
synchronously on the main thread inside `BiergartenPipelineOrchestrator::Run()`
— §6 below is what introduces the additional worker threads the planned
architecture needs.
---
## 1. Domain Models
`tooling/pipeline/includes/data_model/generated_models.h` and `models.h`.
- [ ] Add `Completeness` enum (`Full`, `Partial`, `Absent`) and a
`LocationContext` struct (`text`, `completeness`, `char_count`).
Replace `EnrichedCity::region_context` (currently a plain
`std::string`) with `context : LocationContext`.
- [ ] Add `BeerStyle` (`name`, `description`, `min_abv`, `max_abv`,
`min_ibu`, `max_ibu`).
- [ ] Add `BeerResult`, `CheckinResult`, `RatingResult` result payloads.
- [ ] Add `GenerationMetadata` (`generation_id`, `generated_time`,
`context_provided`, `generated_with`).
- [x] Add `first_name`, `last_name`, `gender`, and `activity_weight` to
`UserResult` (currently just `username`, `bio`). `first_name`/
`last_name`/`gender` are copied from the sampled `Name` (see below),
not LLM-invented.
- [x] Add `Name` (`first_name`, `last_name`, `gender`) — the sampled result
handed to `DataGenerator::GenerateUser`. Add `ForenameEntry` (`name`,
`gender`) and a `NamesByCountry` class (not a bare typedef) that owns
two maps — `std::unordered_map<std::string, std::vector<ForenameEntry>>`
and `std::unordered_map<std::string, std::vector<std::string>>`, both
keyed by ISO 3166-1 code — and exposes `SampleName(iso3166_1, rng)`.
Pairing a forename with a surname happens at sample time so gender
(present per-forename in the source data) is never discarded the way a
pre-flattened `{first_name, last_name}` list would lose it; see
`LoadNamesByCountry()` below.
- [ ] Extend `GeneratedBrewery` with `brewery_id`, `context_completeness`,
`metadata` (currently just `{location, brewery}`).
- [ ] Add `GeneratedBeer`, `GeneratedCheckin`, `GeneratedRating`,
`GeneratedFollow` aggregate structs.
- [x] Add `GeneratedUser` aggregate struct. Carries `email`, `date_of_birth`,
and `password` — programmatically generated by the orchestrator, never
LLM-authored — so a downstream auth-account seeding consumer (outside
this repo tree's docs) can register real accounts from the pipeline's
SQLite export. Skips `user_id`/`metadata` for now, matching
`GeneratedBrewery`'s current (pre-`brewery_id`/`metadata`) shape. Not
yet wired into `IExportService`/`SqliteExportService``GenerateUsers`
currently only logs and holds `generated_users_` in memory; no `users`
table exists in the SQLite export yet (see §5).
- [x] Add `UserPersona` (`name`, `description`, `style_affinities`).
## 2. Data Preloading
`tooling/pipeline/includes/json_handling/`, fixture files.
- [ ] Extract a `DataPreloader` interface; have `JsonLoader` implement it.
`JsonLoader` now also exposes static `LoadPersonas()` and
`LoadNamesByCountry()` (see below), but as additional static methods,
not yet behind a formal interface.
- [ ] Add `LoadBeerStyles()`. `beer-styles.json` already exists in the repo
and is already copied into the Docker image
(`runpod/Dockerfile`), but no loader reads it yet, and the native
CMake build doesn't copy it into `build/` at all — `CMakeLists.txt`'s
"Runtime Assets" step only copies `locations.json` and `prompts/`.
- [x] Add `LoadPersonas()` and author `personas.json` (doesn't exist yet).
- [x] Add `LoadNamesByCountry(forenames_filepath, surnames_filepath)`,
parsing `tooling/pipeline/forenames-by-country.json` and
`surnames-by-country.json` into a `NamesByCountry`. Both files are
vendored verbatim (unmodified, full multinational coverage) from
`sigpwned/popular-names-by-country-dataset` (CC0) — see
ETHICS-AND-KNOWN-ISSUES.md's Names-by-Country Dataset section for
provenance. Deliberately not pre-paired or filtered down to just the
countries in `locations.json`: keeping the source shape (including
per-forename gender) intact means the loader can support more
countries later, or gender-aware persona/bio generation, without
re-sourcing data.
## 3. Policy / Strategy Layer
Entirely new — no `includes/policy/` (or equivalent) directory exists today.
- [ ] `ContextStrategy` interface + `BreweryContextStrategy` /
`BeerContextStrategy`. Today `WikipediaEnrichmentService::GetLocationContext`
hardcodes a generic `"brewing"` query and a `"beer in {country}"`
query directly — no per-phase strategy selection.
- [ ] `SamplingStrategy` interface + `UniformSamplingStrategy`, replacing
the inline `std::ranges::sample(...)` call in
`BiergartenPipelineOrchestrator::QueryCitiesWithCountries()`.
- [ ] `BeerSelectionStrategy` interface + `RandomBeerSelectionStrategy`, to
pick styles per brewery from the `BeerStyle` palette (depends on §1
and §2).
- [ ] `CheckinDistributionStrategy` interface + `JCurveCheckinStrategy` /
`RandomCheckinStrategy` — this is the "Check-In System" item already
called out in README.md's Next Steps, made concrete.
- [ ] `FollowGenerationStrategy` interface + `RandomFollowStrategy` /
`ActivityWeightedFollowStrategy`.
## 4. Data Generation
`tooling/pipeline/includes/data_generation/`, `src/data_generation/`.
- [ ] Extend the `DataGenerator` interface with `GenerateBeer`,
`GenerateCheckin`, `GenerateRating` (today: only `GenerateBrewery` and
`GenerateUser`).
- [x] Implement `LlamaGenerator::GenerateUser` for real, with a retry loop
mirroring `GenerateBrewery` (GBNF grammar, `ValidateUserJson`, up to 3
attempts with corrective feedback) and a new
`prompts/USER_GENERATION.md`. Changed the `DataGenerator::GenerateUser`
signature to
`(city : const EnrichedCity&, persona : const UserPersona&, name : const Name&) : UserResult`,
matching what the activity diagram actually passes. `MockGenerator::GenerateUser`
updated to match the new signature too.
- [ ] Implement `MockGenerator::GenerateBeer` / `GenerateCheckin` /
`GenerateRating`.
- [ ] Add `IPromptFormatter::ExpectedArchitecture()` and
`LlamaGenerator::ValidateModelArchitecture()` so loading a GGUF that
doesn't match the configured chat template fails fast instead of
silently producing degraded output.
- [ ] Add prompt template files for beer/checkin/rating generation next to
the existing `prompts/BREWERY_GENERATION.md`.
## 5. Export Service
`tooling/pipeline/includes/services/database/`, `src/services/sqlite/`.
- [ ] Extend `IExportService` with `ProcessBeer`, `ProcessUser`,
`ProcessCheckin`, `ProcessRating`, `ProcessFollow` (today only
`ProcessRecord(const GeneratedBrewery&)` exists).
- [ ] Add `beers`, `users`, `checkins`, `ratings`, `follows` tables to
`SqliteExportService::InitializeSchema()` — see
`kCreateLocationsTableSql` / `kCreateBreweriesTableSql` in
`includes/services/database/sqlite_statement_helpers.h` for the
existing pattern to follow.
- [ ] Add a `brewery_cache_` alongside the existing `location_cache_`, and
move from one open transaction for the whole run to per-phase batched
commits (`BEGIN` / `COMMIT & BEGIN` on a batch-size threshold), as
shown in the planned activity diagram.
## 6. Concurrency & Orchestration
`tooling/pipeline/includes/concurrency/`,
`src/biergarten_pipeline_orchestrator/`.
- [ ] `BoundedChannel<T>` already exists and is production-tested — but
it's only wired to the single log channel today. Stand up the
per-phase producer/consumer channels (`loc_ch`, `exp_ch`, etc.) the
planned activity diagram describes, each with a dedicated LLM worker
thread and SQLite worker thread.
- [ ] Rewrite `BiergartenPipelineOrchestrator::Run()` from one synchronous
pass over `generated_breweries_` into phased methods —
`RunUserPhase``RunBreweryAndBeerPhase` (with a `RunBeerPhase`
sub-step once `brewery_pool_` is populated) → `RunCheckinPhase` /
`RunFollowPhase` (these two can run in parallel) → `RunRatingPhase`
backed by `user_pool_`, `brewery_pool_`, `beer_pool_`,
`checkin_pool_`, `follow_pool_`.
- [ ] Honor the structural-concurrency requirement already called out in a
comment on `BiergartenPipelineOrchestrator::Run()` in
`biergarten_pipeline_orchestrator.h`: once real worker threads exist,
they must be structurally joined (e.g. via `std::jthread`) before
`Run()` returns, so no worker logs to a closed channel during
teardown.
## 7. Enrichment
- [ ] Decide whether to restore the city/region-specific Wikipedia query
that's currently commented out in
`src/services/enrichment/wikipedia/get_summary.cc`
(`GetLocationContext`). The `ContextStrategy` work in §3 is a natural
place to reintroduce it via `BreweryContextStrategy::QueriesFor()`.
- [ ] Pre-warm caches at startup (`PreWarmBeerStyleCache`,
`PreWarmLocationCache` in the planned activity diagram) instead of
fetching lazily per record, so the streaming phases never block on a
cold cache mid-run.
## 8. Fixtures / Build
- [ ] Author `personas.json` and `names-by-country.json` (see §2).
- [ ] Fix the `beer-styles.json` build-tree gap: add it to the "Runtime
Assets" `configure_file` step in `CMakeLists.txt` so native builds and
the Docker image agree on what's available at runtime.

## Suggested build order
The planned activity diagram's own phase notes ("brewery*pool* is now fully
populated. Phase 1b may begin.", etc.) imply a dependency order. Roughly:
1. Domain models (§1) and data preloading (§2) — nothing else compiles
without these.
2. Export schema (§5) — so every later generation phase has somewhere to
land its output.
3. Policy/strategy layer (§3) and generator interface (§4).
4. Concurrency/orchestration rewrite (§6), which is the only piece that
actually wires §1§5 into the phased, parallel pipeline shown in the
planned diagrams.
5. Enrichment cache pre-warming and the city/region query decision (§7) —
useful at any point, but most valuable once phases run concurrently.
