## 2. Script Execution Guide
### Script 00: Check External Data Sources and Provenance
Validates external data repositories (HuggingFace datasets, NCTB curriculum textbooks, AIS/DAE handbooks):
```bash
python reproducibility/scripts/00_fetch_external_data.py
```
### Script 01: Ingest and Standardize Corpora
Standardizes raw nodes into canonical JSON schema (`structured_nodes.json`) and exports `selected_act_ids.json` (735 legal acts) and `nctb_provenance.json` (190 secondary experiments):
```bash
python reproducibility/scripts/01_prepare_corpora.py
```
### Script 02: Prepare Benchmark Queries and Evaluation Subsets
Standardizes 3,670 queries (`queries.jsonl`) and generates the 900-query agent sample, the 872-query common evaluated subset, the 28 timeout exclusions, and the 300-query perturbation sample:
```bash
python reproducibility/scripts/02_prepare_queries.py
```
### Script 03: Execute Independent Data Validation Audit Gate
Executes the cryptographic and census audit verifying 100% hash integrity against `manifest.json`, node counts, query counts, chunk counts, and referential integrity:
```bash
python reproducibility/scripts/03_validate_data.py
```
*Expected Output:* `DATA VALIDATION AUDIT: PASS`

## 3. Representation Builders ($L_1$, $L_2$, $L_3$)
### Script 04: Build / Verify $L_1$ (Chunked Unstructured)
Splits knowledge records into 500-character recursive windows with overlap (4,526 agri, 4,202 legal, 892 edu chunks):
```bash
python reproducibility/scripts/04_build_l1_chunks.py
```
### Script 05: Build / Verify $L_2$ (Full-Node Unstructured)
Concatenates all active schema fields with newline delimiters into an intact document per record (1,028 agri, 735 legal, 190 edu intact documents):
```bash
python reproducibility/scripts/05_build_l2_full_nodes.py
```
### Script 06: Build / Verify $L_3$ (Structured BM25F)
Extracts records into dedicated indexed field slots according to the official schema (Appendix Table 7), tagging designated query-aligned anchor fields:
```bash
python reproducibility/scripts/06_build_l3_fields.py
```

## 4. Design Principles
- **Standard Library Only**: All scripts run in standard Python 3.8+ without external dependencies.
- **Console Encoding Safe**: Automatic UTF-8 console reconfiguring prevents Windows cp1252 character errors.
- **Relocatable Execution**: Scripts automatically detect project root from `__file__` or accept explicit `--data_dir` and `--output_dir` arguments.
