Errors Found and Fixed¶

1. Field Naming Inconsistency (scorecard_enricher.py)¶

Location: Lines 65, 103\ Severity: Medium (test failure)

Problem: Used country_matched but tests expected matched_country

Before:

doc["scorecard"] = {
    "country_matched": country,
    "enriched_at": datetime.now(timezone.utc).isoformat(),
    "indicators": indicators,
}

After:

doc["scorecard"] = {
    "matched_country": country,
    "enriched_at": datetime.now(timezone.utc).isoformat(),
    "indicators": indicators,
}

Impact: Two instances fixed; ensures consistency with test expectations

2. Duplicate Function Definition (scorecard_diff.py)¶

Location: Lines 58, 91, 96\ Severity: Low (confusing but tests pass)

Problem: Both hash_content() function AND alias to compute_content_hash() created duplicate function

Before:

def hash_content(content: str) -> str:
    # Normalize whitespace and lowercase
    normalized = re.sub(r"\s+", "", content.lower())
    return hashlib.sha256(normalized.encode()).hexdigest()[:16]

# ... later ...

def compute_content_hash(content: str) -> str:
    return hashlib.md5(content.encode("utf-8")).hexdigest()

# Alias for backward compatibility with tests
hash_content = compute_content_hash  # ❌ Overwrites existing function!

After:

def hash_content(content: str) -> str:
    # Normalize whitespace and lowercase
    normalized = re.sub(r"\s+", "", content.lower())
    return hashlib.sha256(normalized.encode()).hexdigest()[:16]

# ... later ...

def compute_content_hash(content: str) -> str:
    return hashlib.md5(content.encode("utf-8")).hexdigest()

# Removed duplicate alias

Impact: Removed accidental overwrite; both functions now coexist with different hashing strategies

Code Quality Observations¶

✅ Strengths¶

Comprehensive test coverage: 20 tests covering all 6 modules
Consistent error handling: All modules use try/except with logger.warning
Good documentation: All functions have docstrings with Args/Returns
CLI entry points: All processor modules can run standalone
Caching: Scorecard loader caches DataFrame to avoid repeated Excel reads
Parallel processing: URL validator uses ThreadPoolExecutor for performance
Flexible exports: Multiple export formats (summary, sources, by-indicator, by-region)

⚠️ Areas for Improvement¶

Hash function confusion: Two different hash implementations (SHA256 vs MD5) - consider standardizing
Missing type hints: Some functions lack complete type annotations
Hard-coded paths: METADATA_FILE, EXPORT_DIR are hard-coded constants
No versioning: Scorecard changes not tracked over time
Limited normalization: Country matching could be more robust with fuzzy matching

📋 Recommendations¶

Standardize hashing: Choose one hash algorithm and stick with it
Add config file: Move paths to a config file for easier customization
Version tracking: Add scorecard versioning to track updates
Fuzzy matching: Integrate fuzzywuzzy or similar for country name matching
API layer: Create REST API endpoints for website integration
Batch exports: Add option to export all formats at once with single command

Consistency Checks¶

Indicator Names¶

All files use consistent indicator names from INDICATOR_COLUMNS:

INDICATOR_COLUMNS = [
    ("AI_Policy_Status", "AI_Policy_Status_Source"),
    ("Data_Protection_Law", "Data_Protection_Law_Source"),
    ("Children_Data_Safeguards", "Children_Data_Safeguards_Source"),
    ("SOGI_Sensitive_Data", "SOGI_Sensitive_Data_Source"),
    ("DPA_Independence", "DPA_Independence_Source"),
    ("DPIA_Required_High_Risk_AI", "DPIA_Required_High_Risk_AI_Source"),
    ("LGBTQ_Legal_Status", "LGBTQ_Legal_Status_Source"),
    ("Promotion_Propaganda_Offences", "Promotion_Propaganda_Offences_Source"),
    ("COP_Strategy", "COP_Strategy_Source"),
    ("SIM_Biometric_ID_Linkage", "SIM_Biometric_ID_Linkage_Source"),
]

✅ All 10 indicators verified across all modules

Import Structure¶

All scorecard modules properly import from processors.scorecard:

✅ scorecard_enricher.py imports: get_country_scorecard, get_all_indicators, load_scorecard, INDICATOR_COLUMNS
✅ scorecard_export.py imports: load_scorecard, extract_all_source_urls, get_regions, INDICATOR_COLUMNS
✅ scorecard_validator.py imports: extract_all_source_urls, load_scorecard
✅ scorecard_diff.py imports: load_scorecard, extract_all_source_urls

Logger Usage¶

All modules use consistent logging:

from processors.logger import get_logger

logger = get_logger("scorecard_enricher")  # Module-specific logger
logger.info("Enriched 50 documents")
logger.warning("Country not found: NotARealCountry")

✅ Consistent logger naming across all modules

Integration Status¶

Main Pipeline¶

Scorecard enrichment is NOT integrated into pipeline_runner.py by default. It runs as a separate step.

Current workflow:

python pipeline_runner.py --source upr  # Scrape & process
python processors/scorecard_enricher.py  # Enrich metadata
python -c "from processors.scorecard_export import export_scorecard; export_scorecard()"  # Export

Recommendation: Add --enrich-scorecard flag to pipeline_runner.py for optional integration

Website Integration¶

The scorecard system is ready for website integration:

Data exports: CSV files in data/exports/ can be served directly
API ready: Functions available for REST API wrapper
JSON metadata: Enriched metadata includes scorecard field for document pages

Documentation¶

Created comprehensive documentation:

✅ docs/SCORECARD_WORKFLOW.md - Complete workflow guide (320+ lines)
Overview and architecture
All 5 workflows (setup, enrich, export, validate, monitor)
Integration instructions
Maintenance tasks
Troubleshooting guide
Future enhancements

Summary¶
