You Already Have an Ontology

说明与用途

开发者经常在代码库中创建多个不一致的领域概念定义，导致漂移和代理行为不可靠。将这些定义合并为单一的本体可消除不匹配并提高代理可靠性。

问题

Developers often create multiple, inconsistent definitions of domain concepts across codebases, leading to drift and unreliable agent behavior.

结果

Consolidating scattered ontology definitions eliminated mismatches, ensured agents had a reliable, authoritative knowledge base, and reduced maintenance overhead.

工作流

• Audit existing code to identify duplicated domain concepts.
• Map each concept to its occurrences across backend, frontend, and UI layers.
• Create a unified definition (e.g., a shared TypeScript enum or a JSON schema).
• Replace all local definitions with the unified one, updating serializers and UI components.
• Add tests to ensure consistency and catch future drift.
• Document the ontology in a central place (e.g., README or internal wiki).

证据

The frontend believes in form_too_complex and unsupported_ats, which the backend cannot produce.

The status vocabulary is the same story. ApplicationStatus has seven values in Python and five in TypeScript.
