NYC DOT SIM Analyst Toolkit

A unified Streamlit Mission Control dashboard and Python CLI toolkit for NYC DOT analysts. It ingests live Socrata open data, runs Bayesian SLA forecasting, performs spatial conflict detection, and surfaces 30+ interactive visualizations — all backed by a DuckDB L2 cache and a natural-language query interface powered by the Claude API.

Quickstart

pip install -e ".[mission]"
streamlit run app/app.py
# CLI:
socrata --help
socrata dataset health
socrata nl-query "How many inspections per borough?" --dataset sidewalk_inspections

Open http://localhost:8501 — demo mode loads automatically (no token needed).

With live data: add SOCRATA_APP_TOKEN=your_token to a .env file.

Local Pre-Push Testing

Before pushing to main, run the CI simulation on your local Python version to catch failures early:

# Simulates GitHub Actions matrix (ruff + pytest) on current Python version
make ci-check

This runs the same quality checks that GitHub Actions will run on Python 3.10, 3.11, and 3.12:

• Ruff linting — Validates code style and correctness (E, F, W, I, UP, B rules)
• Pytest — Runs unit and integration test suite (excluding heavy tests)

The workflow matrix is defined in .github/workflows/python-package.yml and tests against Python 3.10, 3.11, and 3.12. The make ci-check target acts as a local pre-flight check on your current Python version to save CI time.

See CONTRIBUTING.md for the full development guide.
