Archetypes and chart of accounts

The Chart of Accounts and the eleven archetypes are two reference taxonomies service-content — entity extraction and knowledge-graph host maintains as CSV files and loads into the knowledge graph as static entities. Together they give every classified document or entity two independent labels: where it sits in an institutional structure, and what functional role it plays. A reader who only needs the vocabulary can stop after the two tables below; a reader who wants to see how the platform actually uses them should continue to the Verification Surveyor section.

Two reference tables, two dimensions

Table	Real shape	What it captures
Chart of Accounts	reference_number, category, type, gravity_keywords — a flat, two-level list, not a deep hierarchy	Structural position: which institutional category (Personal, Compliance, Real Estate, Construction, and others) and which specific type within it
Eleven Archetypes	id, name, signature, healing_trigger, gravity_keywords — one row per archetype	Functional role: what a person or entity does, independent of job title

A small sample of the real Chart of Accounts:

Reference	Category	Type
1001	Personal	Director
2001	Compliance	Counsel
2002	Compliance	Accounting
3003	Real Estate	Office Leasing

The Chart is flat by design — a category and a type, nothing deeper. There is no separate "Domain" or "Sub-Domain" layer; the type field carries that level of specificity directly.

The eleven archetypes

Each archetype row carries a name and a short signature. It also carries a "healing trigger" — the failure mode the archetype is defined against:

Archetype	Signature	Healing trigger
The Executive	Strategic Direction	Stagnation
The Guardian	Risk & Compliance	Breach
The Fiduciary	Resource Integrity	Leakage
The Architect	System Design	Complexity
The Engineer	Technical Execution	Friction
The Artisan	Creative Precision	Homogeneity
The Constructor	Physical Realization	Structural Gap
The Catalyst	Growth & Momentum	Inertia
The Envoy	External Synergy	Friction
The Steward	Asset Preservation	Degradation
The Sage	Knowledge & Vision	Ignorance

Both tables also carry a gravity_keywords column — a pipe-separated list of terms associated with the row (a Guardian's keywords include "compliance," "counsel," "audit," "legal"). This column exists in the data today as reference vocabulary; no classification code currently matches incoming text against it automatically.

How the taxonomy reaches the knowledge graph

service-content — entity extraction and knowledge-graph host exposes a small admin API that reads each CSV file and loads its rows into the graph as static entities. The eleven archetype rows load as classification: "archetype", the Chart of Accounts rows as classification: "coa-profile", both tagged with a dedicated __taxonomy__ module so they're distinguishable from entities extracted from real documents. Reloading either file replaces the prior set of rows rather than appending to it.

Where the archetype label is actually applied

The archetype taxonomy's one confirmed point of use today is the Verification Surveyor tool. When an operator manually verifies an extracted entity's identity, the tool prompts them to pick one of the eleven archetypes from the ontology file and records that choice as a claim on the entity, alongside the verification timestamp and source URL. This is a human decision made once per entity during review — not an automated inference, and not a mechanism that evaluates or scores a person's ongoing behaviour against their archetype. The Chart of Accounts categories are not part of this workflow; only the archetype selection is.
