ordvec-manifest 0.4.0

Python bindings for ordvec index manifest verification

ordvec-manifest

Python bindings for the ordvec-manifest verifier.

Install from PyPI:

python -m pip install ordvec-manifest

Import as ordvec_manifest. The package exposes the Rust manifest verifier as dict-returning Python functions:

import ordvec_manifest

report = ordvec_manifest.verify_manifest("index.manifest.json")
if not report["ok"]:
    raise RuntimeError(report["errors"])

Create manifests with caller-owned sidecars by passing dictionaries with name, path, and optional required:

manifest = ordvec_manifest.create_manifest(
    "index.tvrq",
    "index.manifest.json",
    "bge-small-en-v1.5",
    row_id_is_identity=True,
    auxiliary_artifacts=[
        {"name": "ordinaldb.ids", "path": "ids.bin"},
        {"name": "optional.stats", "path": "stats.json", "required": False},
    ],
)
plan = ordvec_manifest.verify_for_load("index.manifest.json")

For OrdinalDB v0.1, keep row_id_identity for the ordvec row count and declare ids.bin as required auxiliary artifact name ordinaldb.ids. Do not encode ids.bin as JSONL row identity; the v1 JSONL row-map contract is UUID-only.

The verifier checks manifest shape, declared artifact digests and sizes, probed ordvec index metadata, row identity, auxiliary artifact state, optional calibration profiles, optional encoder-distortion profiles, and attestation shape metadata. It does not sign artifacts, manage keys, call networks, mutate index files, or decide deployment policy.
