yogsoth-ai Taxonomy Validation
Validate the constructed ontology for structural integrity. Check for cycles in hierarchies, orphaned branches, inconsistent typing, and coverage gaps.
Guiding Focus
An ontology that contradicts itself is worse than no ontology. Validation is not optional — it's the quality gate that separates useful structure from noise.
Available Tactics
- consistency-checking — systematic integrity verification
- hierarchy-construction — repair broken hierarchies

Available Tactics
Optional, no fixed order; the final leaf is always a sop.
| Tactic | When to use |
|---|---|
| hierarchy-construction | Tactic for building is-a and part-of hierarchies — establish parent-child relationships, verify transitivity, detect cycles. |
| knowledge-structuring-consistency-checking | Tactic for verifying ontology consistency — detect contradictions, cycles, orphans, and type violations. |
Available SOPs
Optional, no fixed order; the final leaf is always a sop.
| SOP | When to use |
|---|---|
| gap-detection | SOP for finding structural gaps in the ontology — missing concepts, thin branches, disconnected clusters. |
| hierarchy-visualization | SOP for inspecting the current hierarchy structure — query graph to display parent-child relationships. |
| ontology-export | SOP for exporting ontology summary — generate a readable overview of the current ontology state. |
