funkpower 90fb977a10 colophon: six more things the front matter of a book is not 
Read out of the review queue a real run produced, where each of these was
sitting as a proposed title waiting for a person to say no:

  1. General Remarks            a numbered heading
  2   James W. McAllister       a numbered heading
  5222 What Is This             a folio that ran into the line
  827 North Fourth Street       an address
  Page xxxvi / Chapter I        a marker
  title                         a form label, printed literally
  Sidebottom, Harry. Ancient    a bibliography entry
  To Mackenzie,                 a dedication

The numbers are the delicate part. A leading number that could be a year
is left alone, because 1984 Revisited is a book and 5222 What Is This is
a folio, and nothing else distinguishes them. A dedication has to end in
a comma, so To Kill a Mockingbird survives.

The copyright notices in the same pile are already fixed: those
proposals were written before 0.2.2 and are stale rather than wrong.

funkpower 05b712d084 0.2.2 — a subtitle begins with a capital 
title_case counted small words from the start of the whole string, so
every subtitle that opened with one was set in lower case: 'Aesthetic in
Kant: a Critique', 'Born Fighting: the Scots-Irish'. A colon starts a
title of its own and the first word of one is capitalised however small
it is.

Found by book-pipeline, which had been proposing a title page's capitals
verbatim into a catalogue and needed this to stop.

funkpower 60943420b4 0.2.1 — the holder goes between the symbol and the year 
'(c) Alfredo Ferrarin 2004' was read as a title. The notice pattern
wanted the year to follow the symbol directly, and a copyright line puts
the holder's name in between, which is the ordinary way to set one.

funkpower 3b1fbb73ce 0.2.0 
The Python surface gained enough this week that three different builds
were installed on two machines all calling themselves 0.1.0: moria had
read_colophon through merge_colophon, mirkwood had a partial from the
middle of the afternoon, and PyPI had neither. A version that does not
move is a version nobody can depend on, which is how book-pipeline ended
up running a wheel scp'd into place by hand.

New since 0.1.0: colophon --shelf and catena.shelve, which file a book's
printed Library of Congress headings onto a closed list; catena
.read_colophon; catena.fetch_identifier, the registers in process; and
catena.colophon_prompt / merge_colophon, the question about what the
pages did not settle and the reply folded back in.
 2026-09-21 11:10:13 -04:00
funkpower 8f048efd69 bindings: let go of the interpreter while reading a book 
read_colophon is several milliseconds of computation over a few hundred
kilobytes, and it held the GIL for all of them. A caller reading a
library through asyncio.to_thread therefore got no overlap whatsoever:
six books in flight, one book's worth of work at a time.

Measured on this library, that was most of why a concurrent pass still
paced at four and a half hours.
 2026-09-21 10:57:38 -04:00
funkpower 0416359c65 bindings: colophon's own question, and the reply folded back in 
colophon has composed the question about what its pages did not settle
since it was written, and merged a reply back into the record it read.
Both were reachable only from a terminal, so a pipeline wanting the same
fallback would have had to write its own prompt — a second one, drifting
from the first, asking for a shape merge does not accept.

merge fills only the unsettled fields, so a model cannot overwrite what a
book printed about itself. That is the property that makes asking one
safe, and it belongs to colophon rather than to any caller.

funkpower f4497b3f0a colophon: the front matter of a book nobody typeset carefully 
Read against five thousand real books, the title page is often not the
first thing in the file, and what is there instead has shape. Six kinds
of it were being read as titles:

  vi   CONTENTS                                  a folioed heading
  Copyright (c) 2013 by Barry Davies, BEM        a notice
  Translated from the French by Willard R. Trask a credit
  Vol. 11. HENRY JAMES, JR.                      a collected edition's list
  [PART ONE:                                     a part heading
  Piper Verlag GmbH, Munich<span style=...       a converter's leavings

Rejecting one line only moves the misread down one, because a page that
converted badly converted badly throughout, so the whole shape goes:
markdown links, stylesheet declarations, HTML entities, epub filenames,
and the sentences a copyright page sets.

The notice pattern wants the symbol or the year, never the word alone.
The first draft rejected 'Copyright and Its Discontents', which its own
test caught.

On sixty books this drops five claimed titles, all of them wrong, and
fixes six that were reading one homily's heading for every other
homily's title.

funkpower f4d936e620 recipes, examples: shelving a library by what its books printed 
The suite could read a cataloguing block and could ask a register, and
nothing showed the two together — which is the only way either is worth
acting on. A title page alone gives up a running head when the scan
starts late; an ISBN alone returns a confidently wrong book when the
catalogue has been carrying the wrong one for years.

The example's title comparison folds to letters and digits rather than
comparing strings. A register and a title page differ over case, over a
curly apostrophe against a straight one, and over whether the subtitle
counts as part of the title. An example that called those disagreements
would teach the wrong lesson, and did until it was fixed.

It runs on this library and finds both of the cases worth finding: a file
called Document5 by -ducati996 that both sources agree is Russell's
Problems of Philosophy, and a Pelikan whose stored ISBN belongs to a book
about sculpture.

funkpower 18cc217c0d bindings: what a book says about itself, and what the register says back 
book-pipeline reaches for colophon and bibfetch on every book it repairs.
Shelling out would mean a process per book per tool across five thousand
books, and parsing back the JSON it is about to parse anyway.

bibfetch's fetch loop lived in main.rs, so binding it meant either
lifting it or writing a second one. A second implementation of 'which
register answers about this kind of identifier, and in what order' would
drift from the first, and the copy nobody runs from a terminal would
drift silently. It is now bibfetch::ask, and the command line calls it
too — verified by running the CLI before and after and diffing.

fetch_identifier releases the GIL around the request. It is the only
function here that opens a socket, and holding the interpreter for the
length of an HTTP call would stop every other thread in it.

bibfetch is optional and only the python feature turns it on: its HTTP
client does not build for wasm32, and an unconditional dependency would
have taken the JavaScript package down with it.

funkpower 6199fce251 colophon: file a book's printed subjects onto a shelf someone has 
A cataloguing block states subjects in Library of Congress form, which
is precise, deep and no use for browsing. Real blocks from this library
read 'Political science – Early works to 1800' and 'English
literature—Middle English, 1100–1500—History and criticism'. Nobody has
a shelf called that.

--shelf takes the closed list the library is actually browsed by and
files the printed headings onto it, longest term first so a period of
thought does not collapse into its parent. Matching is on whole words
after folding punctuation away, because a cataloguing block separates
with em dashes, en dashes, full stops and plain hyphens, often three in
one heading, and OCR turns any of those into any other.

What matches nothing comes back under unshelved rather than being
dropped: a subject silently discarded is indistinguishable from a book
that printed none, and the difference is the whole value of reading the
block.
 2026-09-21 10:14:52 -04:00
funkpower 4ea28c03b6 bibfetch: ask every register that answers about a book, in turn 
An ISBN is not a DOI. The body that assigns a DOI is the only one that has
it, so one register is the whole answer. A book's identifier is assigned by
its publisher and recorded by whoever gets round to it, and the record that
comes back is as often as not missing the thing the caller wanted: asked
about 9780199205592, OpenLibrary's edition record names *The First World
War* and the press that printed it, and nobody at all as its author, because
an edition record names its authors by key.

So an ISBN now has a chain rather than a register. The edition record first,
then OpenLibrary's own index — which answers with `author_name` filled in
and costs nothing — and Google Books last, because it answers anonymous
callers only until a daily quota runs out, after which it replies 429 to
everyone behind the same address, as it is doing here today.

The first complete answer wins, an incomplete one is kept in case nothing
better comes, and a register being down is a failure only when every
register is. `source` on the record says which one answered.

colophon comes with it: the imprint reader was taking `Oxford is a
registered trade mark of Oxford University Press` for a publisher and
`Oxford N`, off `Oxford New York`, for a place. A legal notice mentioning a
press is not the press, and a city is the city and not the first letter of
the next one.

funkpower ba8ec81735 colophon: the record a book prints in its own front matter 
A catalogue's worst records are the ones whose file says nothing true about
itself: a PDF titled `Untitled` by an author called `Oxford`, which is a
publisher, from a filename that was never anything but a filename. What
those books do have is pages. The title page carries the title as the
publisher set it; the copyright page carries the imprint, the year, the
ISBN, and in most English books since the 1970s the cataloguing block, which
is a catalogue record a librarian already made, subject headings and all.

So this reads the pages. Every field names the page it came from, and a book
that printed nothing comes back empty with its fields in `unsettled` rather
than filled with something plausible — an extraction that starts at chapter
one has no front matter in it, and saying so is the answer.

Two pages look like a title page and are not, and both are how a catalogue
comes to name the wrong book. A series advertisement lists other titles in
the shape a title page uses, over as many as four pages with only the first
announcing itself. A translation's cataloguing block prints the original
title in brackets above the real one. Both are found and refused.

Three things the pages give that no file does: the subject headings a
librarian assigned, an ISBN that exists only in print — which turns a book
with no identifier into one `bibfetch` can look up — and a title in the case
the publisher meant, because a half title prints unbroken what the title
page breaks across two lines and sets in capitals.

`--prompt` and `--merge` are citefind's: a question about exactly the fields
the pages left unsettled, composed here and answered wherever the caller
keeps a model, with the advertising taken out of what the model is shown.
A field a model answered is marked `model`, so a record always says which of
it was read and which was inferred.

Measured against 600 books of the home corpus: the cataloguing block
answered for 21% of them and agreed with the catalogue 89% of the time, most
of the residue being the catalogue's error rather than this one's. Title
pages answered for another 41%. The remaining 38% print nothing readable,
and are what the prompt is for.

funkpower d55486977d release: staging cannot create a package that has never existed 
The registry answers POST /-/stage/package with a 404 for a name it has not
seen, so the first release of a new name cannot be staged at all — no token
scope changes that. The step now says so and lets the release stand rather
than failing after PyPI has already published.

The first version goes out by hand with 2FA; every one after it stages from
here.

One register is enough for a DOI or a preprint: the body that assigns the
identifier is the only one that has it. A book is different. An ISBN is
assigned by a publisher and recorded by whoever gets round to it, so an
answer that names the book but not who wrote it is common — OpenLibrary's
edition record names its authors by key rather than by name, and its index
names them. So the registers are asked in turn and the first complete answer
wins. An incomplete one is kept in case nothing better comes, and a register
being down is a failure only when every register is.
Google Books is asked last because it answers anonymous callers only until a
daily quota runs out, after which it replies `429` to everyone sharing the
address.

# colophon
The record a book prints in its own front matter.
Part of [catena](../../README.md).
## What it does
A book states what it is twice before the text starts. The title page carries
the title as the publisher set it and the name of whoever wrote it. The
copyright page carries the imprint, the year, the ISBN, and — in most
English-language books printed since the 1970s — the cataloguing block, which
is a catalogue record a librarian made from the manuscript, subject headings
and all.
So this reads the pages rather than the file. A PDF whose embedded title is
`Untitled` and whose filename says `Oxford` opens on *The First World War: A
Very Short Introduction*, by Michael Howard, and that is what comes back.
Every field names the page it was read off. Nothing is inferred: a scan that
begins at the preface printed no title page, and the record of that is an
empty one with every field listed in `unsettled`.
## A shelf of your own
A cataloguing block states subjects the way a national library does:
```text
Political science – Early works to 1800
English literature—Middle English, 1100–1500—History and criticism
```
Nobody browses by those. `--shelf` takes the closed list you actually file by
and returns the headings from it that the book's own subjects hit:
```sh
colophon --shelf shelf.txt book.md
```
```text
# one heading per line; `= terms` gives the words that match it,
# and a heading with no terms matches its own name.
Byzantine History = byzantium, byzantine, constantinople
Political Science = political science, politics
Ethics
```
The longest term wins, so `Ancient Philosophy` beats `Philosophy` and a period
of thought does not collapse into its parent. Matching is on whole words after
punctuation is folded away, because a block separates with em dashes, en
dashes, full stops and hyphens, and OCR turns any of those into any other.
Headings that match nothing come back under `unshelved`, kept as printed. A
subject quietly dropped reads exactly like a book that printed none.
## When you would use it
- **Cataloguing scans and secondhand files**, where the embedded metadata is
whatever the last tool to touch the file happened to write.
- **Checking a catalogue against the books themselves.** A record that
disagrees with the book's own title page is a record worth looking at.
- **Recovering an ISBN** that only exists in print, which turns a book with
no identifier into one [`bibfetch`](../bibfetch/README.md) can look up.
- **Getting subject headings** that nobody had to invent, from the
cataloguing block of the books that print one.
## Install
```sh
cargo install --git https://git.pumpin.online/funkpower/catena colophon
```
## Example
```
$ colophon first-world-war.md
{"v":1,"path":"first-world-war.md","title":"The First World War","subtitle":"A Very Short Introduction","authors":["Michael Howard"],"editors":[],"isbns":["9780192803535"],"publisher":"Oxford University Press","place":"Oxford","year":2002,"subjects":[],"read_from":{"authors":"title_page","isbns":"copyright_page","publisher":"copyright_page","subtitle":"title_page","title":"title_page","year":"copyright_page"},"unsettled":["subjects"],"pages_read":16}
```
A library at once, and the books that say nothing about themselves:
```sh
colophon library/*.md | jq -r 'select(.title == null) | .path'
```
An ISBN that only exists in print, looked up:
```sh
colophon book.md | jq -r '.isbns[]' | idnorm | bibfetch --polite you@example.org
```
## What it will not read
Two pages in a book's front matter look like a title page and are not, and
both of them are how a catalogue ends up naming the wrong book. They are
found and refused.
The **series advertisement** lists other titles in the same series in the
same shape a title page uses — a work in capitals, a person beside it —
sometimes for four pages, with only the first saying what it is. The
**uniform title** in a translation's cataloguing block is the original
title, printed in brackets above the real one as a filing heading.
## Asking a model about the rest
Roughly a third of books print nothing this can read: an extraction that
starts at chapter one has no front matter in it at all. `--prompt` writes a
question about exactly the fields left `unsettled`, and `--merge` folds the
answer back in.
```sh
colophon --prompt book.md | ollama run qwen3:8b > reply.json
colophon --merge reply.json book.md
```
Nothing is sent from here: the question goes to stdout, and the model is
yours. What a model answers is marked `model` in `read_from`, so a record
always says which of its fields were read off a page and which were
answered.
The pages the question shows have had the advertising taken out of them
first. Handing a model a series list is how a book becomes catalogued as
whichever of two hundred other titles the model's eye fell on.
## Where this stops
It reports what the book printed, not what is true. `THE HUMAN CONDITION` is
reported in the capitals it was set in, and straightening that is
[`bibclean`](../bibclean/README.md)'s job. What a file's own metadata claims
is [`bookmeta`](../bookmeta/README.md)'s. What a register says about the
ISBN is [`bibfetch`](../bibfetch/README.md)'s. Which series a book belongs to
is [`seriesof`](../seriesof/README.md)'s.
## Options
| Option | Effect |
|---|---|
| `--pages <COUNT>` | How many pages in from the front to read. Default `16` |
| `--prompt` | Write the question to put to a model about what the pages left unsettled |
| `--merge <FILE>` | Fill in from a model's reply and write the completed record |
| `--quiet` | Say nothing; the exit code is the answer |
| `--man` | Write this page as a manual page, in roff |
## Exit codes
| Code | Meaning |
|---|---|
| `0` | The book printed something about itself |
| `1` | It printed nothing this could read |
| `65` | The input was not readable as text |
| `74` | The file could not be read |

//! The record a book prints in its own front matter.
//!
//! A book states its own title twice before the text starts, and states it
//! properly: on the title page, set by the publisher, and again in the
//! cataloguing block on the copyright page, where a librarian has already
//! decided what the title is, who the author is, and what the book is about.
//! A file's embedded metadata may say `Untitled` and a filename may say
//! `Oxford`, but the printed page says *The First World War: A Very Short
//! Introduction*, by Michael Howard.
//!
//! So this reads the pages, not the file. What comes back is what the book
//! printed, with the page it was printed on named for every field, and
//! nothing at all where the book printed nothing — a scan that starts at the
//! preface has no title page, and the honest record of that is an empty one.
//!
//! Two traps are worth naming, because both of them are how a reader that
//! does not know better ends up cataloguing the wrong book:
//!
//! - **The series advertisement.** A paperback's front matter lists two
//! hundred other books in the same series, in the same shape a title page
//! uses: a work in capitals, a person beside it. A title taken off that
//! page belongs to somebody else. Those pages are found and refused,
//! including the ones that continue the list without repeating its heading.
//! - **The uniform title.** A translation's cataloguing block prints the
//! original title in brackets above the real one. It is a heading, not the
//! title of the book in your hand.
//!
//! What this does not do is decide whether what the book printed is any
//! good. `THE HUMAN CONDITION` is reported in the capitals it was set in;
//! straightening that is [`bibclean`]'s job. Nor does it look anything up:
//! an ISBN read off the copyright page is a key, and [`bibfetch`] is what
//! turns a key into a catalogue record.

## Shelving a library by what its books printed
A catalogue's subjects come from wherever the file came from, which is to say
from nowhere in particular. A book's own cataloguing block is the one place its
subjects are stated rather than guessed — and stated in Library of Congress
form, which is precise and useless for browsing:
```
$ colophon converted/hobbes.md | jq -r '.subjects[]'
Hobbes, Thomas, 1588–1679. Leviathan
Political science – Early works to 1800
```
Nobody has a shelf called that. Give `colophon` the list you actually file by
and it files them for you:
```
$ cat shelf.txt
Political Science = political science, politics
Byzantine History = byzantium, byzantine, constantinople
Theology = theology, christianity
Ethics
$ colophon --shelf shelf.txt converted/*.md | jq -c '{title, shelved, unshelved}'
{"title":"Leviathan","shelved":["Political Science"],"unshelved":["Hobbes, Thomas, 1588–1679. Leviathan"]}
{"title":"Christianity and Classical Culture","shelved":["Theology"],"unshelved":[]}
```
`unshelved` is the point of the exercise. A subject quietly dropped reads
exactly like a book that printed none, and the difference decides whether you
go looking for a heading your shelf is missing.
**The title page is not evidence on its own.** A scan that begins mid-frontmatter
gives up a running head, a copyright line, or the author's name where the title
should be. What makes a printed record trustworthy is a second one agreeing,
and the ISBN in the same block is how you get one:
```sh
colophon --shelf shelf.txt converted/*.md > printed.ndjson
jq -r 'select(.isbns != null) | .isbns[0]' printed.ndjson \
| idnorm --quiet \
| bibfetch --polite you@example.org > register.ndjson
```
Now two sources that cannot have copied each other have spoken, and you can
say which books are settled and which need a person:
```sh
jq -s -r '
(.[1] | map({key: .id, value: .}) | from_entries) as $reg
| .[0][]
| . as $printed
| ($reg[$printed.isbns[0] // ""] // {}) as $found
| [ $printed.title,
$found.title,
(if $printed.title and $found.title then "corroborated" else "one source" end)
] | @tsv
' printed.ndjson register.ndjson
```
```
The First World War The First World War: A Very Short Introduction corroborated
Document5 The Problems of Philosophy corroborated
Born Fighting — one source
```
The second row is the case worth the whole recipe: a file named `Document5`
whose author reads `-ducati996`, which the book itself and OpenLibrary agree
is Russell's *The Problems of Philosophy*. The third is the honest failure —
one source said something, nothing confirmed it, and it goes to a human.
In process, where a pipeline actually lives:
```python
import catena
shelf = open("shelf.txt").read()
printed = catena.read_colophon(markdown, shelf=shelf)
found = None
if printed["isbns"]:
found = catena.fetch_identifier(printed["isbns"][0], polite="you@example.org")
settled = bool(printed.get("title") and found and found.get("title"))
```
`catena.shelve(shelf, subjects)` files headings a catalogue already holds, by
the same rules, so a record's existing subjects and its book's printed ones are
judged alike.

`shelve_a_library.py` is the metadata half: it reads the cataloguing block a
book prints in its own front matter, files those subjects onto a closed list
you supply, and asks the register that assigned the ISBN whether it agrees.
```sh
python examples/python/shelve_a_library.py converted/*.md
```
Neither source is worth acting on alone — a scan that starts mid-frontmatter
gives up a running head where the title should be, and an ISBN a catalogue has
been carrying wrongly returns a confidently wrong book. The example prints
`corroborated` only when both said the same thing, and the disagreements are
the interesting output.
