# SCOPE

## One-liner
|
|
|
|
Selector creation, resolution, re-anchoring, and highlight/scroll contracts that
|
|
keep citation-evidence annotations attached to their source passages.
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
## Core Idea
|
|
|
|
An **anchor** is a resolvable reference to a passage in a document, represented
|
|
by several complementary *selectors* (visual, text, structural, context). Given
|
|
a stored selector set and a document representation, this repo answers: *where is
|
|
this passage now, and how confident are we?* — returning a confidence-scored
|
|
result (`resolved` / `ambiguous` / `unresolved` / `stale`) rather than a silent
|
|
guess. It also owns the `DocumentViewerAdapter` contract every viewer implements.
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
## In Scope
|
|
|
|
- selector **creation** from a captured viewer selection (`createSelectors`)
|
|
- selector **resolution** against a document representation (`resolveSelectors`)
|
|
- the exact-match confidence ladder, fuzzy recovery floor, and selector-redundancy rules
|
|
- PDF selector math (page number + normalized page rectangles, page-local text)
|
|
- DOM/structural selector creation and resolution for HTML/Markdown
|
|
- the format-neutral `DocumentViewerAdapter` contract, the PDF adapter, and the HTML viewer
|
|
- scroll-to-target and highlight-render contracts + helpers
|
|
- anchor confidence scoring and ambiguous/unresolved/stale reporting
|
|
|
|
Selector *behavior* lives here; selector *type interfaces* live in
|
|
`citation-engine` (see ADR-0006 and SharedContracts §8).
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
## Out of Scope
|
|
|
|
- selector *type definitions* — owned by `citation-engine` (`shared/selector`)
|
|
- persistence policy, the canonical evidence domain model, citation-card rendering
|
|
- document ingestion, OCR, metadata extraction, external source lookup
|
|
- form-field binding semantics, guide-overlay UI, application shell / deployment
|
|
- becoming a viewer implementation itself (it defines the adapter, not the viewer)
|
|
|
|
During the umbrella-first MVP these belong to the appropriate citation-evidence
|
|
subsystem. This repo may depend on **`citation-engine` only** (DependencyMap §4).
|
|
|
|
### Still deferred (beyond EANCH-WP-0004)
|
|
|
|
- `FragmentSelector` (export-only deep links)
|
|
- human-confirmation UI for ambiguous/fuzzy matches
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
## Relevant When
|
|
|
|
- creating anchors from a user text selection in a document viewer
|
|
- resolving stored selectors back into a representation to reopen a citation
|
|
- implementing a new `DocumentViewerAdapter` (PDF today; HTML/Markdown later)
|
|
- scrolling to and highlighting a cited passage
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
## Not Relevant When
|
|
|
|
- you need selector *type* shapes only — import from `citation-engine`
|
|
- you are working on ingestion, persistence, binding, or the app shell
|
|
- you need the integrated review workspace UX — that is `citation-work` / umbrella
|
|

|
## Current State
|
|
|
|
- Status: active — standalone package consumed by `citation-evidence`
|
|
- Implementation: PDF + HTML/Markdown selector paths, stale/orphan/fuzzy resolution,
|
|
`PdfViewerAdapter`, and `HtmlViewerAdapter` (`evidence-anchor/dom`)
|
|
- Stability: evolving — shared contracts stable; HTML/MD wired in `citation-work` ViewerShell
|
|
- Usage: internal (consumed by `citation-evidence` during MVP)
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
## How It Fits
|
|
|
|
- Upstream dependencies: `citation-engine` (shared selector/document/annotation types)
|
|
- Downstream consumers: `citation-evidence` (umbrella), later `citation-work`,
|
|
`evidence-source`, `evidence-binder`
|
|
- Often used with: a concrete document viewer (PDF.js + react-pdf-highlighter-plus)
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
## Terminology
|
|
|
|
- Preferred terms: anchor, selector, resolution, re-anchoring, highlight contract
|
|
- Also known as: "the anchoring layer"
|
|
- Potentially confusing terms: `Selector` (the *type* is engine-owned; the
|
|
*behavior* is anchor-owned — see ADR-0006)
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
## Related / Overlapping Repositories
|
|
|
|
- `citation-engine` — owns shared selector/document/annotation type interfaces
|
|
- `citation-evidence` — umbrella; current home of the code being extracted
|
|
- `evidence-source` — document ingestion / representations (consumer)
|
|
- `citation-work` — review workspace UX (consumer)
|
|
- `evidence-binder` — evidence-to-target binding (consumer)
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
## Getting Oriented
|
|
|
|
- Start with: `INTENT.md` (intended responsibilities), then this file
|
|
- Key files / directories: upstream `../citation-evidence/src/anchor/` is the
|
|
extraction source; post-extraction the package layout is in `README.md`
|
|
- Entry points: `createSelectors`, `resolveSelectors`, `DocumentViewerAdapter`
|

|
|
|
Shared contracts are maintained in the umbrella and must not be contradicted here:
