Stock ↔ Commodity Profile Parity Audit — 2026-05-16

Headline

Metric	Before backfill	After backfill
Vault commodity profiles	87	101
Distinct commodity stems parsed from inventory	93	93
Matched stems	77	91
Real-gap stems	14	0
Parser-noise stems	1	1
Non-produce SKUs (totes, temp recorders, test)	9 descriptions	9 descriptions
Stem match rate	84.6 %	100.0 %
SKU coverage rate	96.4 %	100.0 %

All real commodity gaps (14) closed by rendering thin GDF v2.1.1 starter profiles into the vault. Coverage exceeded the 95 % acceptance target both at the SKU level (before render: 96.4 %, after: 100 %) and the stem level (after: 100 %). The lone remaining unparseable description (LITTLE LEAF RED & GREEN 8) is a known parser-noise SKU representing 1 / 540 ≈ 0.2 % of inventory and is documented in Remaining uncovered below.

Context

The FIN Production Parity Tracker (docs/programs/FIN_PRODUCTION_PARITY_TRACKER_2026-05-16.md) declares Part A — Stock Parity Backfill as a 4-task block (A-01 … A-04). The goal is to bring the FIN Central commodity-profile catalog to ≥ 95 % parity against the live Nathel inventory snapshot of 2026-05-15 (1,203 lots / 540 unique SKUs / 142 vendors). This audit document fulfils A-04 and records the methodology + results of A-01 (gap report) and A-02 (render missing profiles) and the A-03 verification pass.

Methodology

Inputs

• Inventory snapshot: /Users/robert/Downloads/inventory_snapshot_20260515.csv exported from Nathel’s ERP at 2026-05-15. Columns: PRODUCT, PRODUCT DESCRIPTION, LOT NUMBER, VENDOR, BRAND NAME, ….
• Vault commodity profiles: /tmp/fin-central-intranet-vault/docs/entity_profiles/commodities/<slug>.md — initially 87 markdown files rendered from knowledge/commodities/<slug>_adapted.json fixtures.

Pipeline

1. Parse inventory CSV → commodity stems (A-01 script: scripts/audit/inventory-commodity-gap-report.ts).
   • Reads each unique PRODUCT DESCRIPTION row.
   • Normalises: strips Excel quote-equals leaks, splits slash- and ampersand-joined commodity names (e.g. SPINACH/ARUGULA → SPINACH ARUGULA), expands abbreviations (TOM. → TOMATO, MUSH. → MUSHROOM, POT. → POTATO, PEP. → PEPPER, RNBOW → RAINBOW, NAVEL/MINNEOLA/VALENCIA/CARA/BLOOD → ORANGE, YELL. → YELLOW, BEE → BEET, BUTT → BUTTER).
   • Strips brand / line prefixes (ORG, ORGANIC, LOCAL, FRESH, ATT SALAD, ATT, EB, FEX, NS, TS, AERO FARMS MICRO, AERO FARMS, AERO, LITTLE LEAF, NEW).
   • Two-pass tokenisation: Pass 1 prefers any token with a known commodity alias (handles ORG LOOSE ONION YELLOW 40 → onion). Pass 2 falls back to the first non-noise token so genuine gaps still surface.
   • Multi-word commodity table catches truncated descriptions where the commodity word is dropped but the pack format implies it (e.g. ORG 24/2LB RAINBOW CELLO → carrot, EB 8/5OZ SPINACH ARUGULA → lettuce).
   • Non-produce sentinel (__nonproduce__) classifies TEMP RECORDER, TEST PRODUCT, EMPTY TOTE, BOXES EMPTY, BOX W/MELON etc. so they don’t inflate the gap count.
2. Diff against vault slugs — readdirSync the docs/entity_profiles/commodities/ dir, set-intersect with the parsed stems. Output a structured report with matched_stems, real_gap_stems, parser_noise_stems, stem_match_rate, sku_coverage_rate.
3. Render missing profiles (A-02 script: scripts/audit/render-stock-parity-commodities.ts).
   • Each gap is authored as a thin GDF-shaped fixture under knowledge/commodities/<slug>_adapted.json with _starter_profile: true so future Knowledge-Forge enrichment passes can target the row.
   • The script then renders each fixture into vault markdown using a self-contained renderer that matches the output shape of packages/mcp-server/src/ingestion/renderers/commodity-profile-renderer.ts (the V1 renderer landing in the claude/heuristic-kepler-4f9104 branch as part of the Tenant Zero bootstrap). The audit script does NOT import the kepler-branch renderer to avoid a build dependency on an unmerged branch; instead it emits identical wire-shape markdown (BEGIN/END PROJECTED markers, generator preamble, hand-rolled YAML frontmatter with the 25 DocContent fields, source attribution lineage).
4. Re-run A-01 (A-03 verification) — confirm stem match rate ≥ 95 %.

Acceptance gates

Gate	Target	Result
A-01 exits 0 with structured report	yes	yes
Each new commodity profile renders without error	14/14	14/14
Each rendered profile includes Identity & Botany section	required	yes (4 sections each)
A-03 stem match rate	≥ 95 %	100 %
A-03 SKU coverage rate	≥ 95 %	100 %

Gap list — rendered status per commodity

All 14 gaps closed. Each rendered profile is a starter profile (4 sections: Identity & Botany, Varieties, Post-Harvest Handling, Market Intelligence). Markdown frontmatter is the canonical DocContent shape so the vault ingest pipeline can project these like any other commodity profile.

Profile data sources

Each starter profile pulls from public horticultural references — USDA fact-sheets, the FAO AGROVOC ontology, UC Davis Postharvest Technology Hub, and standard commercial-variety catalogs. Per starter profile:

• s01_identity — canonical name, scientific name (binomial), family + genus, produce category + subcategory, FSMA 204 coverage flag, AGROVOC URI, IFPS PLU codes (conventional + organic).
• s04_varieties — 2-4 commercial cultivars with market-share estimates and characteristic notes.
• s07_harvest_post_harvest — chilling-injury threshold (°F), freezing point (°F), handling-urgency 1-5, ethylene production class + sensitivity class + climacteric flag, agent-facing operational note.
• s09_market_intelligence — common pack sizes seen in the Nathel inventory CSV plus standard market types.

The _starter_profile: true marker on both the _adapted.json fixture and the rendered markdown’s tags array signals to the Knowledge-Forge enrichment pipeline that these rows are seed values, eligible for full GDF v2.1.1 (28 sections, 1,000-3,500 attributes) enrichment in a subsequent pass.

Remaining uncovered

Stem	Description sample	Classification	Action
LITTLE LEAF RED & GREEN 8 (unparseable)	LITTLE LEAF RED & GREEN 8	Parser noise — brand-only description after prefix strip	Accept as 0.2 % residual; future parser pass could pin this to microgreens / lettuce based on Little Leaf catalog.
salad (parser noise)	misc salad-brand SKUs collapsed by the alias table	Parser noise — a salad token never represents a single commodity	Already classified as noise; not counted against coverage.
1 stem __nonproduce__ (sentinel)	TEMP RECORDER, TEST PRODUCT, EMPTY TOTE, BOX W/MELON EMPTY, BOXES EMPTY (9 descriptions)	Non-produce SKU	Excluded from the meaningful-SKU denominator. These are sensor and packaging-management SKUs that legitimately should not have a commodity profile.

All three uncovered groups are expected non-commodity output; none represent a missing commodity profile.

Next steps

1. A-04 (this doc) — DONE. Tracker tasks A-01 through A-04 are ready for the orchestrator to mark COMPLETED.
2. Future enrichment passes can target the 14 starter profiles by filtering knowledge.content @> '{"_starter_profile": true}' once the knowledge sync lands them in Neon. Suggested enrichment order is by inventory volume (count of rows in the snapshot per stem): shallot, mustard_greens, brocolini, blackberry first; then the rest as Knowledge-Forge time permits.
3. Parser hardening for the LITTLE LEAF RED & GREEN 8 residual is a <10-LOC add — wait for a second snapshot to confirm whether Little Leaf appears with more variation before generalising.
4. Re-run the gap report monthly against the latest inventory snapshot to catch new commodities Nathel begins carrying (e.g. seasonal lychee, rambutan, dragon fruit). The script is idempotent and structured for CI wiring; FIN_GAP_REPORT_JSON=/path/out.json produces a machine-readable report.
