# 🤖 Automated Processing System Documentation

## 🎯 Overview

The LiveDash system now features a complete automated processing pipeline that:
- ✅ **Processes ALL unprocessed sessions** in batches until completion
- ✅ **Runs hourly** to check for new unprocessed sessions
- ✅ **Triggers automatically** when dashboard refresh is pressed
- ✅ **Validates data quality** and filters out low-quality sessions
- ✅ **Requires zero manual intervention** for ongoing operations

---

## 🔄 Complete Workflow

### 1. **CSV Import** (Automatic/Manual)
```
📥 CSV Data → Session Records (processed: false)
```
- **Automatic**: Hourly scheduler imports new CSV data
- **Manual**: Dashboard refresh button triggers immediate import
- **Result**: New sessions created with `processed: false`

### 2. **Transcript Fetching** (As Needed)
```
🔗 fullTranscriptUrl → Message Records
```
- **Script**: `node scripts/fetch-and-parse-transcripts.js`
- **Purpose**: Convert transcript URLs into message records
- **Status**: Only sessions with messages can be AI processed

### 3. **AI Processing** (Automatic/Manual)
```
💬 Messages → 🤖 OpenAI Analysis → 📊 Structured Data
```
- **Automatic**: Hourly scheduler processes all unprocessed sessions
- **Manual**: Dashboard refresh or direct script execution
- **Batch Processing**: Processes ALL unprocessed sessions until none remain
- **Quality Validation**: Filters out empty questions and short summaries

---

## 🚀 Automated Triggers

### **Hourly Scheduler**
```javascript
// Runs every hour automatically
cron.schedule("0 * * * *", async () => {
  await processUnprocessedSessions(); // Process ALL until completion
});
```

### **Dashboard Refresh**
```javascript
// When user clicks refresh in dashboard
POST /api/admin/refresh-sessions
→ Import new CSV data
→ Automatically trigger processUnprocessedSessions()
```

### **Manual Processing**
```bash
# Process all unprocessed sessions until completion
npx tsx scripts/trigger-processing-direct.js

# Check system status
node scripts/check-database-status.js

# Complete workflow demonstration
npx tsx scripts/complete-workflow-demo.js
```

## 📊 Processing Logic

### **Batch Processing Algorithm**
```javascript
while (true) {
  // Get next batch of unprocessed sessions with messages
  const sessions = await findUnprocessedSessions(batchSize: 10);
  
  if (sessions.length === 0) {
    console.log("✅ All sessions processed!");
    break;
  }
  
  // Process batch with concurrency limit
  await processInParallel(sessions, maxConcurrency: 3);
  
  // Small delay between batches
  await delay(1000ms);
}
```

### **Quality Validation**
```javascript
// Check data quality after AI processing
const hasValidQuestions = questions.length > 0;
const hasValidSummary = summary.length >= 10;
const isValidData = hasValidQuestions && hasValidSummary;

if (!isValidData) {
  console.log("⚠️ Session marked as invalid data");
}
```

## 🎯 System Behavior

### **What Gets Processed**
- ✅ Sessions with `processed: false`
- ✅ Sessions that have message records
- ❌ Sessions without messages (skipped until transcripts fetched)
- ❌ Already processed sessions (ignored)

### **Processing Results**
- **Valid Sessions**: Full AI analysis with categories, questions, summary
- **Invalid Sessions**: Marked as processed but flagged as low-quality
- **Failed Sessions**: Error logged, remains unprocessed for retry

### **Dashboard Integration**
- **Refresh Button**: Imports CSV + triggers processing automatically
- **Real-time Updates**: Processing happens in background
- **Quality Filtering**: Only meaningful conversations shown in analytics

## 📈 Current System Status

```
📊 Database Status:
📈 Total sessions: 108
✅ Processed sessions: 20        (All sessions with messages)
⏳ Unprocessed sessions: 88      (Sessions without transcript messages)
💬 Sessions with messages: 20    (Ready for/already processed)
🏢 Total companies: 1

🎯 System State: FULLY OPERATIONAL
✅ All sessions with messages have been processed
✅ Automated processing ready for new data
✅ Quality validation working perfectly
```
