# chatgpt-export-acset

> Process ChatGPT data exports into ACSets for categorical analysis

**Version**: 1.0.0
**Trit**: 0 (ERGODIC - data transformation coordinator)
**Color**: #10B981

## Overview

Transform ChatGPT ZIP exports into ACSets (Attributed C-Sets) for:
- Conversation graph analysis
- Message threading reconstruction
- Author/role relationship mapping
- Attachment tracking

## Schema

## ACSet Definition (Julia)

```julia
@present SchChatGPTExport(FreeSchema) begin
    Conversation::Ob
    Message::Ob
    Author::Ob
    Attachment::Ob
    
    conversation_of::Hom(Message, Conversation)
    author_of::Hom(Message, Author)
    parent_msg::Hom(Message, Message)
    attachment_of::Hom(Attachment, Message)
    
    # Attributes
    Title::AttrType
    Content::AttrType
    Role::AttrType
    Time::AttrType
    FileID::AttrType
    
    title::Attr(Conversation, Title)
    conv_id::Attr(Conversation, Title)
    create_time::Attr(Conversation, Time)
    
    msg_id::Attr(Message, Title)
    content::Attr(Message, Content)
    status::Attr(Message, Title)
    
    name::Attr(Author, Title)
    role::Attr(Author, Role)
    
    file_id::Attr(Attachment, FileID)
    file_type::Attr(Attachment, Title)
end
```

## Python Implementation (py-acset style)

```python
from dataclasses import dataclass, field

@dataclass
class PyACSet:
    schema: dict
    parts: dict = field(default_factory=dict)
    subparts: dict = field(default_factory=dict)
    
    def add_part(self, ob: str, **attrs) -> int:
        idx = len(self.parts[ob])
        self.parts[ob].append(idx)
        for attr, val in attrs.items():
            self.subparts[f"{ob}_{attr}"].append(val)
        return idx
    
    def set_subpart(self, morph: str, src: int, tgt: int):
        while len(self.subparts[morph]) <= src:
            self.subparts[morph].append(None)
        self.subparts[morph][src] = tgt
```

## Usage

### Extract agent-o-rama conversations

```bash
cd /path/to/extracted/zip
python3 extract_agent_o_rama.py
```

### Query with Specter-style navigation

```julia
using ACSets

# All messages in a conversation
messages_in_conv(acset, conv_id) = incident(acset, conv_id, :conversation_of)

# Thread reconstruction (follow parent_msg)
function thread_path(acset, msg_id)
    path = [msg_id]
    while (parent = acset[msg_id, :parent_msg]) !== nothing
        pushfirst!(path, parent)
        msg_id = parent
    end
    path
end

# All messages by role
by_role(acset, role) = findall(==(role), acset[:role])
```
