A busy Tuesday on Parthenon with work spanning three distinct fronts: consolidating the GIS layer we stood up in Phase 19, continuing to clean up the study design workbench on the frontend, and tightening several infrastructure and testing rough edges that had accumulated over the sprint.
A dense Saturday of stability work across Parthenon — today's 89 commits concentrated on three converging themes: getting the cross-platform installer into a shippable state, closing out a backlog of high-severity audit findings in the Care Bundles engine, and restoring broken workspace workflows in Patient Similarity. No new features today; this was deliberate debt-clearing ahead of the next feature milestone.
A dense day on Parthenon with 58 commits landing across a wide surface area: the Care Bundles workbench reached a meaningful analytical milestone with Phase 3 Tier A methodology complete, the macOS CI pipeline was significantly streamlined, and we laid down a comprehensive design spec for the installer's first-run experience. Sprinkled throughout were a handful of i18n fixes and auth UX improvements that round out the release candidate picture.
A heavy day on the Parthenon installer front — 81 commits landed across the repo, pushing installer-v2 from "wired up" to "genuinely trustworthy." We added Docker secrets support, closed a handful of correctness bugs surfaced in post-review, scaffolded the omop_cdm phase for existing-CDM deployments, and nudged Finnish, Japanese, and Chinese localizations well into the mid-90s. Here's a full breakdown.
A dense day on Parthenon with 19 commits focused on three interlocking themes: hardening Abby's ChromaDB knowledge substrate, broadening test coverage across the UI and service layer, and tying up the loose ends needed to ship v1.0.4 cleanly. No single flashy feature today — just the kind of careful, compounding work that makes a platform trustworthy.
Eighteen Docker services. Three environment files. A reverse proxy with auto-TLS. Database admin GUI. Container management dashboard. Enterprise SSO. And if you want the full stack? One command:
python3 install.py --with-infrastructure
This is the story of how we built Acropolis — the infrastructure layer that turns Parthenon from a research application into a production platform — and what we learned when we decided to ship it inside the same repository.
