Christian Nennemann 6e3a387778 Idea quality pipeline, web UI features, academic paper
- Tighten idea extraction prompts (1-4 ideas, no sub-features) reducing
  1,907 ideas to 468 across 434 drafts (78% reduction)
- Add embedding-based dedup (ietf dedup-ideas) for same-draft similarity
- Add novelty scoring (ietf ideas score) and filtering (ietf ideas filter)
  using Claude to rate ideas 1-5, removing 49 generic building blocks
- Final count: 419 high-quality ideas (avg 1.1/draft)
- Web UI: gap explorer with live draft generation and pre-generated demos
- Web UI: D3.js author collaboration network (498 nodes, 1142 edges,
  68 clusters, org filtering, interactive zoom/pan)
- Academic paper: 15-page LaTeX workshop paper analyzing the 434-draft
  AI agent standards landscape
- Save improvement ideas backlog to data/reports/improvement-ideas.md

IETF Draft Analyzer — Improvement Ideas

Saved 2026-03-06 for future implementation

Quick Wins

1. Finish the Web Dashboard

src/webui/ has a solid plan (PLAN.md) but is partially built. A live, interactive explorer makes the data far more accessible than markdown reports. Priority: ship it.

2. Publish the Blog Series

8 posts drafted in data/reports/blog-series/. Publish on GitHub Pages, dev.to, or a static site. The "4:1 capability-to-safety ratio" finding is shareable and provocative.

3. Trend Alerts (ietf watch)

Add a CLI command that re-fetches weekly and flags new drafts, revised drafts, and drafts moving toward WG adoption. Makes this a living tool, not a one-shot analysis.

Medium Effort

4. Interactive Embedding Map

Export Ollama embeddings as a 2D UMAP/t-SNE scatter plot (Plotly or Observable). Color by category, size by score. Most visually compelling artifact possible.

5. Draft Recommendation Engine

With 1,907 ideas and embeddings, build "if you're interested in X, these drafts are most relevant." Useful for IETF participants finding related work before submitting.

8. IETF Meeting Companion

Time around IETF 123 (July 2026). "Here are the AI/agent drafts being discussed, clustered by theme, with quality ratings." Extremely useful for attendees.

9. Expand Beyond AI/Agent

The pipeline (fetch > analyze > rate > embed > gap-find) is generic. Apply to other IETF topics: post-quantum crypto, MASQUE/proxying, IoT security. Each becomes a new landscape report.

11. Living Dashboard with RSS/Email Digest

Combine web UI with trend alerts. Weekly email: "3 new AI agent drafts this week, 1 gap partially filled, here's what changed." Newsletter-ify the analysis.
