Document to Knowledge Graph Skill — Specification (v1.0.0)
MANDATORY PRE-TOOL SEQUENCE — READ BEFORE CALLING ANY TOOL
After getSkillResource loads this skill, the next action must be text only — send the Opening Announcement and wait for the user's reply. Do not call any other tool first.
Skill Identity

Version
1.0.0
Purpose
Transform documents or text into RDF Knowledge Graphs using schema.org terms.
Scope
Four-step pipeline: collect source + page_url + format + destination → generate RDF → post-generation review → save to folder.
Strict Harness Mode
Use Document-to-KG Harness Mode whenever the user asks to transform a document, URL, pasted text, PDF, thread, article, or source mesh into RDF, JSON-LD, Turtle, a Knowledge Graph, or an RDF-backed HTML/MD artifact set.
Harness mode constrains interpretation to this skill's document-to-RDF contract. Do not drift into a generic summary, article rewrite, standalone HTML page, or manually invented graph.
Harness Contract
When active:
Collect or derive required inputs — document source, canonical {page_url}, output RDF format, destination path, and whether HTML/Markdown companions are required.
Use {page_url} as entity namespace for generated document-local IRIs, never file: IRIs when a canonical HTTP/HTTPS URL exists.
Generate RDF first using schema.org and approved vocabularies; RDF is the source of truth for any companion HTML/Markdown.
Apply authority denotation rules — schema:SoftwareApplication, schema:Organization, schema:Country, and schema:DefinedTerm/skos:Concept entities must use DBpedia/Wikidata-centered IRIs as described below, with owl:sameAs for confirmed cross references.
Inspect collection sources as collections — when the source is a manual, documentation site, sitemap-backed site, MkDocs/Docusaurus/VitePress collection, GitBook, docs portal, or other multi-page source, inspect sitemap/search index/navigation for high-signal child pages before finalizing RDF. Always review child pages about APIs, SPARQL, endpoints, query examples, services, reporting workflows, data models, server/runtime platforms, and integration instructions when present.
Preserve SPARQL-bearing content — when source content includes SPARQL queries, query examples, endpoint demos, or reporting/query recipes, do not summarize the query body away. Model each material query as a named schema:SoftwareSourceCode resource with schema:programmingLanguage "SPARQL", schema:text, schema:codeSampleType, schema:target pointing to the endpoint/service, and schema:potentialAction pointing to a correctly URL-encoded live query URL when the endpoint accepts GET query parameters. Preserve documented placeholders visibly.
Validate before save — RDF syntax, expanded DBpedia/Wikidata IRIs, no fabricated IRIs, no double-encoded resolver IRIs, no file: IRIs, and required prefix declarations.
If HTML/Markdown companions are requested, hand off to the rdf-infographic-skillRDF Infographic Harness Mode and satisfy its full HTML/MD/RDF pairing, resolver, KG Explorer, navigation, attribution, and validation contract.
Fail closed on missing requirements — if a required source, page URL, destination, resolver, or artifact scope is ambiguous and cannot be safely inferred, ask before generating.
This harness is the default for requests such as "generate RDF and associated HTML and MD docs", "redo for this URL", "mesh these sources into RDF/HTML/MD", and "reproduce the HTML infographic from RDF".
Opening Announcement
⛔ Send this text immediately after getSkillResource loads. Do not call any tool before this message is sent and the user has replied.
Document to Knowledge Graph Skill activated. I follow a 4-step workflow:
Step 1 — Collect your document source, page URL, output format, and destination folder
Step 2 — Generate RDF using schema.org terms
Step 3 — Review: fix syntax, approve additional Q&A / entity types
Step 4 — Save the approved RDF to your designated folder
To begin, please provide:
Document source — paste your text, provide an http:/https: URL to fetch, or provide a file: URL to read from local disk
Page URL ({page_url}) — used as @base for all relative IRIs (defaults to the source URL for HTTP/HTTPS; for file: URLs you will be asked whether to use it as-is or supply a canonical HTTP URL)
Output format — JSON-LD or Turtle (default choices; any other format accepted if stated)
Destination folder — where to save the output file
Wait for the user's reply. → NEXT: Step 1.
⛔ PRE-BUILD CHECK: Before producing output, re-read the relevant workflow section above and re-read any checklists or verification gates defined in this skill. Confirm each checklist item before writing output. Build to pass — do not retro-fit. Apply the CLAUDE.md Anti-Drift Protocol: re-read spec section before build, gate-first validation, section-by-section delivery.
Step 1 — Collect Source, Format, and Destination
⛔ No tool call until all four session variables are confirmed.
Record the following from the user's reply:
Variable
Description
{selected_text}
Document content — pasted text, text read from a file: URL, or text fetched from an HTTP/HTTPS URL
{page_url}
Used as @base in the generated RDF — see source-type rules below
{format}
JSON-LD (default), Turtle (default), or any other format if explicitly stated
{destination}
Folder path where the output file will be saved
If any item is missing, ask for it before proceeding. Do not assume defaults without confirmation.
Source-type handling
Source type
How to obtain {selected_text}
{page_url} default
Pasted text
Use directly
Ask user to provide
http: / https: URL
Fetch via web fetch tool
The source URL
file: URL
Read from local filesystem
Ask user: use the file: URL as-is, or provide an HTTP URL as the canonical @base?
file: URL guidance:file: IRIs as @base produce non-dereferenceable hash IRIs. If the document has a canonical web URL (e.g., the page it was downloaded from), that is the better @base. If no canonical URL exists, the file: URL is acceptable and the user should be informed the resulting IRIs will not be dereferenceable from the web.
→ NEXT: Step 2.
Step 2 — Generate RDF
Load references/document-to-knowledge-graph-prompt.md via getSkillResource. Substitute {page_url} and {selected_text} into the prompt template. Adjust the opening line for {format} if not JSON-LD.
Call OAI.DBA.chatPromptComplete with the fully substituted prompt.
Present the generated RDF as a code block.
→ NEXT: Step 3.
Step 3 — Post-generation Review (mandatory)
Execute all five sub-tasks. Do not skip any. Do not proceed to Step 4 until all are resolved.
Syntax check — identify and fix all syntax errors in the generated RDF. Report fixes made.
Compliance check — verify the output against the Post-Generation Checklist below. Fix all violations before proceeding.
Additional Q&A / defined terms / howtos — present a candidate list for user approval. Do not add to the output until explicitly approved.
Additional entity types — present a candidate list for user approval. Do not add until explicitly approved.
Revised final output — if any additions from sub-tasks 3 or 4 are approved, return the complete revised RDF incorporating originals plus all approved additions.
Post-Generation Checklist
@base set to {page_url}
schema: namespace uses http://schema.org/ (HTTP, not HTTPS)
All subject/object IRIs are hash-based relative IRIs (except known authority entities)
FAQ questions wrapped in schema:FAQPage with schema:mainEntity
Glossary terms wrapped in schema:DefinedTermSet with schema:hasDefinedTerm
Main article has schema:hasPart linking FAQPage, DefinedTermSet, HowTo, and all entity group sections
At least 10 schema:Question + schema:Answer pairs present
Every entity's rdf:type matches its semantic role: HowToStep → schema:HowToStep, Question → schema:Question, Answer → schema:Answer, DefinedTerm → schema:DefinedTerm, ArticleSection → schema:CreativeWork. No entity typed as schema:Thing when a specific type exists.
No blank nodes for schema:Answer — every answer is a named entity
Inverse relationships explicit: every schema:isPartOf has corresponding schema:hasPart
owl:sameAs used (not schema:sameAs) for DBpedia/Wikidata cross-references
All DBpedia/Wikidata/Wikipedia IRIs fully expanded (not CURIEs)
Every schema:Organization subject IRI follows the organization denotation priority rule: DBpedia resource IRI (1st) → Wikidata entity IRI (2nd) → LinkedIn company page #this (3rd) → X/Twitter org account #this (4th) → official homepage #this (5th) → document-local hash IRI (last). The highest-priority available IRI is the primary subject — never a document-local IRI with owl:sameAs pointing to the canonical one. owl:sameAs links all remaining discovered platform identities.
Every schema:DefinedTerm or skos:Concept subject IRI follows the concept denotation priority rule: standards-body/platform IRI (1st) → DBpedia resource IRI (2nd) → Wikidata entity IRI (3rd) → document-local hash IRI (last). When a confirmed DBpedia IRI exists, use it as the primary subject directly — do NOT create a document-local IRI and add owl:sameAs dbr:X. The entity IS dbr:X; the alias is redundant and bloats the graph. owl:sameAs is reserved for genuine cross-vocabulary alignment (e.g., dbr:SPARQL owl:sameAs wd:Q54871) and platform identity equivalences — not for local-alias→canonical redirects. Document-local is correct only when no confirmed DBpedia or Wikidata IRI exists.
Every schema:SoftwareApplication subject IRI follows the software denotation priority rule: DBpedia IRI if confirmed, else Wikidata IRI if confirmed, else official application home page URL with #this
Any non-DBpedia/non-Wikidata schema:SoftwareApplication IRI has owl:sameAs links to confirmed DBpedia/Wikidata identities when such identities exist, and owl: is declared as http://www.w3.org/2002/07/owl#
Every schema:Country subject IRI follows the country denotation priority rule: DBpedia IRI if confirmed, else Wikidata IRI if confirmed, else a source-grounded document IRI; add owl:sameAs links to confirmed DBpedia/Wikidata equivalents.
For multi-page documentation/manual sources, sitemap/search index/navigation has been reviewed for high-signal service/API/SPARQL/query/model/platform child pages, and those pages are represented or explicitly ruled out
SPARQL query examples, query recipes, or endpoint demos from the source are preserved as schema:SoftwareSourceCode with schema:programmingLanguage "SPARQL", schema:text, target endpoint/service, and correctly URL-encoded schema:potentialAction live-query links where available
No file: scheme IRIs anywhere
All IRI-valued attributes use @id — no plain string literals for IRI-only properties
Inline double quotes within literals converted to single quotes
Smart/curly quotes replaced with straight single quotes
relatedLink includes up to 20 relevant inline URLs
Language tags applied to annotation literals where applicable
No guessed media URLs (thumbnailUrl, contentUrl, embedUrl)
Images from source content described using schema:image with schema:ImageObject where distinct
Person IRIs derived from LinkedIn/X profile URLs where found; all platform identities linked via owl:sameAs
If ontology present: schema:name + schema:description, schema:identifier, all classes/properties have rdfs:isDefinedBy :
prov:wasGeneratedBy links article to a skill entity with schema:name, schema:url (GitHub), schema:description
→ NEXT: Step 4.
SoftwareApplication IRI Denotation Rule
When the generated RDF names a software product, application, SaaS product, developer tool, LLM interface, browser extension, server platform, or app connector as a schema:SoftwareApplication, choose its subject IRI using this priority order:
DBpedia first — if a confident DBpedia resource exists, use the fully expanded DBpedia IRI as the primary denotation IRI, for example http://dbpedia.org/resource/Google_Docs.
Wikidata second — if no confident DBpedia resource exists but a confident Wikidata entity exists, use the fully expanded Wikidata IRI, for example http://www.wikidata.org/entity/Q....
Homepage fallback — if neither DBpedia nor Wikidata can be confirmed, use the official application/product home page URL with #this appended, for example https://example.com/product/#this.
When the primary IRI is not DBpedia- or Wikidata-based, add owl:sameAs relations to any confirmed DBpedia or Wikidata IRIs for that application. Declare owl: as http://www.w3.org/2002/07/owl# whenever owl:sameAs appears. Do not use a local document hash IRI for a known software application when one of the three denotation options above is available.
Do not fabricate DBpedia or Wikidata IRIs. If lookup or source evidence does not provide a confident match, use the homepage #this fallback and omit owl:sameAs until a confident DBpedia/Wikidata identity is established.
Country IRI Denotation Rule
When the generated RDF names a country as a schema:Country, choose its subject IRI using this priority order:
DBpedia first — if a confident DBpedia country resource exists, use the fully expanded DBpedia IRI as the primary denotation IRI, for example http://dbpedia.org/resource/South_Africa.
Wikidata second — if no confident DBpedia resource exists but a confident Wikidata country entity exists, use the fully expanded Wikidata IRI, for example http://www.wikidata.org/entity/Q258.
Document-local fallback — only if neither authority IRI can be confirmed, use a source-grounded document hash IRI derived from {page_url}.
When a primary country IRI is DBpedia-based and a confident Wikidata equivalent exists, add owl:sameAs to the Wikidata entity. When a primary country IRI is Wikidata-based and a confident DBpedia equivalent later becomes available, normalize to DBpedia or add owl:sameAs to the DBpedia entity if normalization would disrupt an existing artifact. Do not use local document hash IRIs for known countries when DBpedia or Wikidata authority IRIs are available.
Visible country names in HTML, Markdown, and KG Explorer nodes must link through the configured resolver using the selected country RDF IRI. Country rows that carry source-specific measurements may attach those measurements directly to the selected country entity or to a named observation node connected to the country, but the country identity itself must remain DBpedia/Wikidata-centered.
Do not fabricate DBpedia or Wikidata IRIs. If lookup or source evidence does not provide a confident match, use the document-local fallback and omit owl:sameAs until a confident identity is established.
Organization IRI Denotation Rule
When the generated RDF names an organization, company, institution, or other corporate/collective entity as a schema:Organization, choose its subject IRI using this priority order:
DBpedia first — if a confident DBpedia resource exists, use the fully expanded DBpedia IRI as the primary denotation IRI, e.g., http://dbpedia.org/resource/Microsoft.
Wikidata second — if no confident DBpedia resource exists but a confident Wikidata entity exists, use the fully expanded Wikidata IRI, e.g., http://www.wikidata.org/entity/Q2283.
LinkedIn #this third — if no confident DBpedia or Wikidata identity can be confirmed but a LinkedIn company page URL is available, use the company page URL with #this appended, e.g., https://www.linkedin.com/company/microsoft/#this.
X/Twitter #this fourth — if no LinkedIn page is found, use the organization's X/Twitter account URL with #this appended.
Homepage #this fifth — if no platform identity is available, use the organization's official homepage URL with #this appended.
Document-local last resort — only if no platform identity can be established, use a source-grounded document hash IRI derived from {page_url}.
CRITICAL: The highest-priority available IRI becomes the PRIMARY SUBJECT — never use a document-local IRI when a canonical platform IRI (DBpedia, Wikidata, LinkedIn, X, homepage) is available. owl:sameAs links all remaining discovered platform identities.
When the primary IRI is DBpedia-based and a confident Wikidata equivalent exists, add owl:sameAs to the Wikidata entity. When primary IRI is Wikidata-based and a confident DBpedia equivalent exists, normalize to DBpedia or add owl:sameAs if normalization would disrupt an existing artifact. Do not use document-local hash IRIs for known organizations when authority IRIs are available.
Organization names must match the source document exactly — no fabricated legal names or suffixes. If the source says "Google", use "Google" — not "Google LLC" or "Alphabet Inc." unless the source explicitly states the full legal name.
Do not fabricate DBpedia or Wikidata IRIs. If lookup or source evidence does not provide a confident match, use the next priority tier and omit owl:sameAs until a confident identity is established.
DefinedTerm/Concept IRI Denotation Rule
When the generated RDF names an abstract concept, term, idea, framework, methodology, or ontological class as a schema:DefinedTerm or skos:Concept, choose its subject IRI using this priority order:
Standards-body or platform IRI first — if the concept has a well-known W3C, schema.org, IANA, or other standards-body IRI, use that as the primary IRI, e.g., https://www.w3.org/2001/sw/#this for Semantic Web.
DBpedia second — if no standards-body IRI exists but a confident DBpedia resource exists for the term, use the fully expanded DBpedia IRI, e.g., http://dbpedia.org/resource/Semantic_Web.
Wikidata third — if no confident DBpedia resource exists but a confident Wikidata entity exists, use the fully expanded Wikidata IRI, e.g., http://www.wikidata.org/entity/Q....
Document-local last resort — most common case: use a source-grounded document hash IRI derived from {page_url} with a mnemonic fragment, e.g., #{conceptName}.
Most concept entities will use the document-local hash IRI (tier 4) because abstract concepts rarely have standards-body, DBpedia, or Wikidata IRIs. When a confirmed DBpedia IRI (tier 2) or Wikidata IRI (tier 3) exists, that IRI MUST become the primary subject — owl:sameAs must NOT be used to link a document-local alias to the canonical IRI. Use owl:sameAs only for cross-vocabulary alignment between the two canonical forms (e.g., dbr:SPARQL owl:sameAs wd:Q54871).
Declare owl: as http://www.w3.org/2002/07/owl# whenever owl:sameAs appears.
Do not fabricate DBpedia or Wikidata IRIs. If lookup or source evidence does not provide a confident match, use the document-local fallback and omit owl:sameAs until a confident identity is established.
Step 4 — Save to Folder
Write the approved RDF to {destination}. Derive the filename from {page_url} by slugifying the path component and appending the appropriate extension:
Format
Extension
JSON-LD
.jsonld
Turtle
.ttl
N-Triples
.nt
RDF/XML
.rdf
Confirm the full saved file path to the user. The session is complete.
Optional HTML Infographic Companion
When the user asks for an HTML infographic in addition to the RDF Knowledge Graph, apply these requirements. For the complete HTML/RDF pairing specification including resolver configuration, navigation panel behavior, localStorage correctness, and validation checklist, see the rdf-infographic-skill SKILL.md.
Output Paths
Save RDF documents to {rdf-output-directory} and HTML infographics to {html-output-directory}. Resolve these placeholders from explicit user instructions, current session preferences, or skill defaults; do not hard-code a personal filesystem path into the reusable skill guidance.
When no destination has been provided, ask for the output directories or use an already-established session default, then confirm the resolved full file paths.
Entity IRIs and Resolver Links
Use {page_url} as the source-grounded namespace for generated entity IRIs. Do not use file: scheme IRIs when a canonical HTTP/HTTPS page URL exists.
Resolver priority: URIBurner (https://linkeddata.uriburner.com/describe/?url={entity-iri}) by default; user-designated resolver if specified; or none if user explicitly opts out.
Encode # as %23 in resolver url parameter values exactly once. %2523 (double-encoded) is invalid.
Every generated HTML anchor whose href is not a same-page fragment (#section) must open a new tab or view using target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer". Same-page navigation fragment links remain same-tab and must not carry target="_blank".
FAQ questions, FAQ answers, glossary terms, glossary definitions, HowTo section title, and every HowTo step heading are ALL hyperlinked to their KG entity IRIs via the resolver pattern.
Every hyperlinked entity must have a correct rdf:type matching its semantic role: HowToStep headings link to schema:HowToStep entities, FAQ questions link to schema:Question entities, glossary terms link to their declared type (schema:DefinedTerm or appropriate type). Do not link a HowToStep heading to a schema:Question or other mismatched type — content-match alone is insufficient.
Visible semantic entities route through the configured resolver using their selected RDF IRIs, including DBpedia/Wikidata IRIs selected under the software denotation rule. The visible link target is the resolver URL; the resolver url parameter value is the entity IRI.
POSH and JSON-LD Metadata
Indicate the associated RDF document using <link rel="related" href="../rdf/{rdf-file}" type="text/turtle">.
Embed a JSON-LD structured-data island with a WebPage node. schema:relatedLink must use IRI form: {"@id": "../rdf/{rdf-file}"} — not a plain string literal.
prov:wasGeneratedBy must reference a schema:SoftwareApplication entity for each skill used, with schema:name, schema:url (GitHub), and schema:description.
Skills attribution line in the HTML footer: Generated using <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://github.com/OpenLinkSoftware/ai-agent-skills/tree/main/{skill-name}">skill-name</a>. Link attributed labels directly; do not use generic Visit/Learn more anchor text.
Never persist collapsed dimensions as open dimensions in localStorage. Recover from stale or corrupt values. Use page-specific keys.
Dark mode: html[data-theme="dark"] and @media (prefers-color-scheme: dark) must produce equivalent rendering. All colors via CSS variables — no hardcoded hex/rgba values outside :root.
GATE: 0 failures required before delivery. Validate: HTML parse, JS syntax, RDF parse + compliance audit, resolver-link validity, entity type correctness (each hyperlinked entity's rdf:type matches its HTML role), open-tab behavior for non-fragment links, local RDF link existence, nav behavior, skills attribution, dark mode consistency.
URIBurner / Demo REST function execution — via REST API endpoint
Terminal-owned OAuth flow — when the endpoint requires OAuth 2.0 authentication, execute the flow from the terminal (authorization code, client credentials, or device flow), capture the Bearer token, and inject via Authorization: Bearer {token} into subsequent REST/OpenAPI calls
MCP — via streamable HTTP or SSE
OPAL Agent routing — via canonical OPAL-recognizable function names
If the user explicitly names a protocol, honor that preference.
Operational Rules
Send the opening announcement before any tool call. After getSkillResource, the next action is the announcement text — no tool call.
All four session variables must be confirmed before Step 2. Never assume {page_url} or {destination} without explicit user confirmation. For file: source URLs, always ask whether to use the file: URL or a canonical HTTP URL as @base.
Format defaults are JSON-LD and Turtle. Always offer these two. Honor any other format if explicitly stated by the user.
Post-generation review is mandatory. Step 3 cannot be skipped. All four sub-tasks must be executed before saving.
Never add unapproved content. Additional Q&A, defined terms, howtos, and entity types must be presented for approval before being included in the output.
Never fabricate IRIs. All IRIs must be derived from {page_url} as @base, from existing hyperlinks in the source document, or from confident external sources (DBpedia, Wikidata, Wikipedia). Do not invent IRIs.
External IRIs must be fully expanded. DBpedia (http://dbpedia.org/resource/...), Wikidata (http://www.wikidata.org/entity/...), and Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...) references must use their full IRI form — never CURIEs or prefixed names. Only schema.org terms may use the schema: prefix.
Smart quotes must be replaced with single quotes. Enforce this in Step 3 syntax check.
Inline double quotes in annotation values must become single quotes. Enforce this in Step 3 syntax check.
Filename is derived from {page_url}. Never use a generic or invented filename.
Scope is strictly document → RDF. This skill does not interact with Virtuoso RDF Views, quad maps, or relational database tables.

Index Page Generation
After saving generated files (RDF, JSON-LD, or companion HTML infographics) into a directory, always offer to generate or update index.html, index.css, and index.js for that directory. These provide a dynamic, searchable index with grid, timeline, and table views.
The index page scans all .html files, extracts metadata (<title>, <meta>, JSON-LD), auto-derives themes from keywords, and renders filterable cards. All links are local file:// references. Confirm the directory with the user before running.
