| # SML Conversation Trees + Python Decoder |
|
|
| **[Try the live conversation explorer](https://huggingface.co/spaces/SMLBuilder/SML-Tree-Explorer)** |
|
|
| Explore recorded conversation trees while preserving every branch, the full |
| conversation history and the exact location of each turn in the source JSON. |
|
|
| This public release brings together **1,309 JSON source files** from SMLBuilder's |
| existing public corpora, a standalone Python decoder, and a live interactive demo. |
| The catalog includes branching conversations, linear chats and derived training |
| files. It is a source-file count, not a claim that every file is a conversation tree. |
|
|
| ## Public source datasets |
|
|
| - [AAC Children Conversations](https://huggingface.co/datasets/SMLBuilder/AAC_Children_Conversations) |
| — pinned at `c060d83904330dd578167e29d7714becd7aaec17`. |
| - [TinkyBrain TrainingData](https://huggingface.co/datasets/SMLBuilder/TinkyBrain-TrainingData) |
| — pinned at `b7f5285c28d77359687c59f2b948b66aefe869c7`. |
|
|
| `catalog.json` points directly to these files at their immutable source revisions. |
| This avoids uploading another copy of the full training corpora. Fields include |
| `id`, `repo`, `revision`, `path`, `bytes`, `sha256` (LFS objects), `blob_id` (Git |
| objects), `category` and `title`. A null SHA-256 means the Git blob ID is the |
| integrity anchor; the live explorer additionally computes SHA-256 after download. |
|
|
| ## Use the lightweight decoder |
|
|
| Download [tree_decoder.py](tree_decoder.py) and a tree JSON from either source |
| dataset. Python 3.9 or newer is enough; there are no package dependencies, model |
| weights, API credentials or GPU requirements. |
|
|
| ```sh |
| python3 tree_decoder.py conversation.json --list |
| python3 tree_decoder.py conversation.json --conversation 0 --path 0,2,1 |
| python3 tree_decoder.py conversation.json --all > conversation-traces.jsonl |
| ``` |
|
|
| `--all` emits every reachable state in every supported conversation root, including |
| all history, available next replies, terminal status, original tile metadata and |
| RFC 6901 JSON pointers. It never merges identical-looking responses from different |
| branches or invents a continuation. Paths and conversation indices are zero-based. |
| Linear `messages` files are explicitly labeled and have one recorded next message. |
| Training tables without conversation structure are not interpreted as dialogue. |
|
|
| Supported tree families: Q&A, AAC/continuation, doctor/patient, caller/dispatcher, |
| dispatcher/AAC. The original [AAC_cli.py](AAC_cli.py) is included unchanged alongside |
| the expanded path-preserving decoder. |
|
|
| ## Trace format |
|
|
| A trace contains `conversation_index`, `conversation_id`, `root_pointer`, |
| `node_pointer`, `branch_path`, `depth`, `schema`, `history`, `options` and `terminal`. |
| Each turn carries its original `text`, `role` or schema role label, `pointer`, |
| `tile_id` when present and unmodified `metadata`. Web exports add the exact pinned |
| source URL, repository revision and verified content hash. CLI exports identify |
| the input filename and its SHA-256. Missing source roles use neutral schema labels, |
| not an inference about the real speaker. |
|
|
| The starter tree is a byte-identical public example bundled for immediate demo |
| startup. Its original path and hash are recorded in the catalog under |
| `25519a9782d5d013`. |
|
|
| ## Scope and verification |
|
|
| The release contains public conversation data references and decoder code. Raw |
| recovery archives, absolute machine paths, credentials and personal runtime history |
| are not part of this public dataset. Existing upstream dataset terms remain |
| applicable; this release does not add a license to underlying material. |
|
|
| An initial audit walked **13,401 reachable states** in 22 representative public files, |
| including 11,159 terminal states. **111,118** displayed history/option pointers were |
| resolved against the original JSON and matched their recorded text. This is a |
| format/trace audit of those samples, not an accuracy or safety certification of |
| the full corpora. Unsupported files and malformed paths return explicit errors. |
|
|
| The live demo replays dataset content. It does not generate answers, assess their |
| truth, or provide professional advice through specialist examples. It uses public |
| read-only source files and does not save visitors' paths as personal conversations. |
