-### Citation Requirements -Every parameter and variable MUST have: -- Direct citation to authoritative source -- Specific section/subsection reference -- Valid URL that links to the exact location -- Effective date clearly specified - -### Common Citation Issues to Check -- ❌ Generic website links without specific sections -- ❌ "See manual" without page/section numbers -- ❌ Outdated regulations (check for amendments) -- ❌ Secondary sources when primary sources exist -- ✅ Direct links to specific CFR sections -- ✅ USC citations with subsection references -- ✅ Page numbers for PDF manuals -

-### Common Parameter Issues -- **Missing effective dates**: Every value change needs a date -- **Wrong units**: Ensure unit matches the value (e.g., currency-USD vs /1) -- **Passive voice in descriptions**: Use "Federal minimum wage" not "The federal minimum wage is" -- **Generic references**: Need specific statute/regulation sections - -## Variable Standards - -### Documentation Requirements -```python -class variable_name(Variable): - value_type = float - entity = Person - label = "Clear, concise label" # ACTIVE VOICE - unit = USD -

""" -``` - -### Formula Requirements -- **Vectorization**: MUST use `where()`, `select()`, or boolean multiplication -- **No if-elif-else**: These don't work with arrays -- **Edge case handling**: Use `max_(0, value)` to prevent negative values -- **Clear variable names**: Use descriptive names that match regulations - -## Testing Standards - -### Integration Test Requirements -```yaml -- name: Descriptive test name matching scenario - period: 2024 - input: - # Complete inputs needed - output: - # Expected values with comments showing calculation -

-## Common Implementation Pitfalls - -### Critical Code Issues -1. **Non-vectorized code (if-elif-else)** - - ❌ NEVER use if-elif-else with household/person data (will crash with arrays) - - ✅ OK to use if-else for parameter-only conditions: - ```python - # ✅ OK - parameter condition only - if p.program.enabled: - rate = p.program.rate - else: - rate = 0 - - # ❌ WRONG - depends on household data - if person("age") > 65: - benefit = amount - ``` - - For household data, must use `where()`, `select()`, or boolean multiplication - -2. **Hardcoded values in formulas** - - ❌ `if income > 50000:` (hardcoded threshold) - - ✅ `if income > p.income_threshold` (parameter) - -3. **Missing `defined_for` when needed** - - Variables that only apply to certain groups need `defined_for` - - Example: `defined_for = "is_ssi_eligible"` - -4. **Not using `adds` for aggregation** - - When summing multiple sources, use `adds` in metadata - - Example: `adds = ["gov.irs.income.wages", "gov.irs.income.interest"]` - -### YAML Test Issues -1. **Missing thousands separators** - - ❌ `income: 50000` - - ✅ `income: 50_000` - -2. **Incorrect period format** - - ❌ `period: 2024-01-01` - - ✅ `period: 2024` (for annual) - - ✅ `period: 2024-01` (for monthly) - -## Common Issues to Flag - -### Documentation Issues -1. **Parameter doesn't match cited source** - - Check actual values in statute/regulation - - Verify effective dates - - Look for amendments - -2. **Missing primary sources** - - Parameters citing only websites - - No statute/regulation reference - - Using summaries instead of law text - -3. **Calculation doesn't follow regulation order** - - Regulations often specify exact order of operations - - Deductions/exclusions must be applied in correct sequence - -### Style Issues -1. **Description style** - - ❌ "The amount of SNAP benefits" - - ✅ "SNAP benefits" - - ❌ "This variable calculates..." - - ✅ "Amount of..." - -2. **Variable naming** - - Should match program terminology - - Use program's official abbreviations - - Consistent with existing variables - -3. **Test clarity** - - Missing calculation explanations - - Unclear why expected value is correct - - No reference to regulation - -## Verification Checklist - -### For Rules Engineer (During Implementation) -- [ ] Every parameter cites primary source -- [ ] All formulas follow regulation sequence -- [ ] Variables use active voice labels -- [ ] Code is fully vectorized -- [ ] Edge cases handled (negatives, zeros) -- [ ] Unit tests cover basic cases -

-# Create isolated worktrees -git worktree add ../pe-${PROGRAM}-docs feature/${PROGRAM}-docs -git worktree add ../pe-${PROGRAM}-tests feature/${PROGRAM}-tests -git worktree add ../pe-${PROGRAM}-rules feature/${PROGRAM}-rules - -echo "Isolated environments created:" -echo " Docs: ../pe-${PROGRAM}-docs/" -echo " Tests: ../pe-${PROGRAM}-tests/" -echo " Rules: ../pe-${PROGRAM}-rules/" -``` - -### Cleanup After Development - -```bash -# Remove worktrees -git worktree remove ../pe--docs -git worktree remove ../pe--tests -git worktree remove ../pe--rules - -# Delete branches after PR is merged -git branch -d feature/-docs -git branch -d feature/-tests -git branch -d feature/-rules -``` - -## Benefits of This Approach - -1. **True Isolation**: Physical separation via worktrees -2. **Parallel Development**: Test and rules developed simultaneously -3. **No Contamination**: Impossible for agents to see each other's work -4. **Audit Trail**: Clear record of isolation maintained -5. **Quality Assurance**: Independent development ensures accuracy - -## Summary - -This workflow ensures that: -- Test Creator never sees implementation until verification -- Rules Engineer never sees expected test values until verification -- Both work from the same authoritative documents -- Reviewer validates everything works together correctly -- Complete audit trail proves isolation was maintained - -The physical separation through git worktrees makes it technically impossible for agents to violate isolation rules. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/.gitmodules b/.gitmodules new file mode 100644 index 0000000..0f289fc --- /dev/null +++ b/.gitmodules @@ -0,0 +1,3 @@ +[submodule ".claude"] + path = .claude + url = https://github.com/PolicyEngine/.claude.git From b9506445fdd9e1d73c1207c8b807aa8b14a3a9ad Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Max Ghenis Date: Tue, 26 Aug 2025 10:26:22 -0400 Subject: [PATCH 2/2] Add comprehensive .gitignore file for Python project --- .gitignore | 158 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 158 insertions(+) create mode 100644 .gitignore diff --git a/.gitignore b/.gitignore new file mode 100644 index 0000000..3a8684d --- /dev/null +++ b/.gitignore @@ -0,0 +1,158 @@ +# Byte-compiled / optimized / DLL files +__pycache__/ +*.py[cod] +*$py.class + +# C extensions +*.so + +# Distribution / packaging +.Python +build/ +develop-eggs/ +dist/ +downloads/ +eggs/ +.eggs/ +lib/ +lib64/ +parts/ +sdist/ +var/ +wheels/ +share/python-wheels/ +*.egg-info/ +.installed.cfg +*.egg +MANIFEST + +# PyInstaller +*.manifest +*.spec + +# Installer logs +pip-log.txt +pip-delete-this-directory.txt + +# Unit test / coverage reports +htmlcov/ +.tox/ +.nox/ +.coverage +.coverage.* +.cache +nosetests.xml +coverage.xml +*.cover +*.py,cover +.hypothesis/ +.pytest_cache/ +cover/ + +# Translations +*.mo +*.pot + +# Django stuff: +*.log +local_settings.py +db.sqlite3 +db.sqlite3-journal + +# Flask stuff: +instance/ +.webassets-cache + +# Scrapy stuff: +.scrapy + +# Sphinx documentation +docs/_build/ + +# PyBuilder +.pybuilder/ +target/ + +# Jupyter Notebook +.ipynb_checkpoints + +# IPython +profile_default/ +ipython_config.py + +# pyenv +.python-version + +# pipenv +Pipfile.lock + +# poetry +poetry.lock + +# pdm +.pdm.toml + +# PEP 582 +__pypackages__/ + +# Celery stuff +celerybeat-schedule +celerybeat.pid + +# SageMath parsed files +*.sage.py + +# Environments +.env +.venv +env/ +venv/ +ENV/ +env.bak/ +venv.bak/ + +# Spyder project settings +.spyderproject +.spyderproject + +# Rope project settings +.ropeproject + +# mkdocs documentation +/site + +# mypy +.mypy_cache/ +.dmypy.json +dmypy.json + +# Pyre type checker +.pyre/ + +# pytype static type analyzer +.pytype/ + +# Cython debug symbols +cython_debug/ + +# PyCharm +.idea/ + +# VS Code +.vscode/ + +# macOS +.DS_Store + +# Windows +Thumbs.db +ehthumbs.db + +# Linux +*~ + +# PolicyEngine specific +*.log +*.pid +*.seed +*.pid.lock \ No newline at end of file
