Issue #582 Verification — Parent-Epic Orchestration Slice

Date: 2026-04-20 Status: Slice already present on main; epic remains open for full archive consumption.

What #582 asked for

A single orchestration script that stitches the five Know Thy Father phases together into one reviewable plan — not a replacement for individual scripts, but a spine that future passes can run, resume, and verify.

What exists on main

Artifact	Path	Present
Epic pipeline runner	scripts/know_thy_father/epic_pipeline.py	✅
Pipeline documentation	docs/KNOW_THY_FATHER_MULTIMODAL_PIPELINE.md	✅
Phase 1 — Media Indexing	scripts/know_thy_father/index_media.py	✅
Phase 2 — Multimodal Analysis	scripts/twitter_archive/analyze_media.py	✅
Phase 3 — Holographic Synthesis	scripts/know_thy_father/synthesize_kernels.py	✅
Phase 4 — Cross-Reference Audit	scripts/know_thy_father/crossref_audit.py	✅
Phase 5 — Processing Log	twitter-archive/know-thy-father/tracker.py	✅

Runner capabilities (all implemented)

# Print the orchestrated plan
python3 scripts/know_thy_father/epic_pipeline.py

# JSON status snapshot of scripts + known artifact paths
python3 scripts/know_thy_father/epic_pipeline.py --status --json

# Execute one concrete step
python3 scripts/know_thy_father/epic_pipeline.py --run-step phase2_multimodal_analysis --batch-size 10

Test coverage

The following test suites confirm the orchestration slice is intact:

• tests/test_know_thy_father_pipeline.py — pipeline plan structure, status snapshot, doc presence
• tests/test_know_thy_father_index.py — Phase 1 media indexing logic
• tests/test_know_thy_father_synthesis.py — Phase 3 kernel synthesis
• tests/test_know_thy_father_crossref.py — Phase 4 cross-reference audit
• tests/twitter_archive/test_ktf_tracker.py — Phase 5 processing tracker
• tests/twitter_archive/test_analyze_media.py — Phase 2 multimodal analysis

Run all with:

python3 -m pytest tests/test_know_thy_father_pipeline.py tests/test_know_thy_father_index.py tests/test_know_thy_father_synthesis.py tests/test_know_thy_father_crossref.py tests/twitter_archive/test_ktf_tracker.py tests/twitter_archive/test_analyze_media.py -q

Why Refs #582, not Closes #582

The repo-side orchestration slice is fully implemented on main. However, the parent epic itself remains open because:

1. The local Twitter archive has not been fully consumed through all five phases.
2. Downstream memory/fact-store integration is not yet wired end-to-end.
3. The processing log (PROCESSING_LOG.md) reflects halted progress that has not resumed.

This PR adds durable verification evidence without overstating closure.
