GroundRecall Bridge

This documents the smallest end-to-end path for carrying reviewed GroundRecall concept context into a Didactopus draft pack.

Purpose

Use this when:

• the source material began as legacy office documents
• doclift has already normalized those documents into a bundle
• GroundRecall already contains a reviewed concept you want to carry into the learner-facing pack as grounded context

The bridge does not replace Didactopus pack generation. It enriches it with a pack-ready groundrecall_query_bundle.json artifact.

Inputs

You need:

1. a GroundRecall canonical store directory
2. a concept reference resolvable in that store
3. a doclift bundle directory
4. an output directory for the generated Didactopus pack

Command

didactopus doclift-bundle-groundrecall \
  /path/to/groundrecall-store \
  channel-capacity \
  /tmp/doclift-bundle \
  /tmp/didactopus-pack \
  --course-title "Example Course"

Arguments:

• groundrecall_store_dir: canonical GroundRecall store
• groundrecall_concept_ref: concept id, short id, or matching concept text
• bundle_dir: doclift bundle root
• pack_dir: output directory for the generated pack
• --course-title: display title for the generated pack

Optional:

• --author
• --license-name

What It Does

The command performs four steps:

1. exports a pack-ready groundrecall_query_bundle.json from the GroundRecall store
2. places that artifact in a temporary _groundrecall area under the target pack
3. runs the normal doclift bundle demo pack generation flow
4. writes the resulting pack with groundrecall_query_bundle.json included as a declared supporting artifact

Outputs

The generated pack directory contains the normal Didactopus draft-pack files, plus:

• groundrecall_query_bundle.json
• doclift_bundle_summary.json

The pack summary also records:

• groundrecall_bundle_included
• groundrecall_concept_ref
• groundrecall_query_bundle_path

Why This Matters

This bridge keeps the responsibilities distinct:

• doclift normalizes documents
• GroundRecall stores canonical reviewed concept context
• Didactopus builds learner-facing packs and workbench flows

But it removes the manual handoff step where a user previously had to export and place groundrecall_query_bundle.json by hand.

Related Commands

Export the pack-ready query bundle directly from GroundRecall:

python -m groundrecall.export /path/to/groundrecall-store /tmp/groundrecall-export \
  --pack-ready-concept channel-capacity

Run the plain doclift bundle conversion without GroundRecall:

didactopus doclift-bundle /tmp/doclift-bundle /tmp/didactopus-pack --course-title "Example Course"
