extract_community built a community report chunk with
"\n".join([f.get("explanation", "") for f in stru["findings"]])
A finding may be a plain string rather than a dict. The schema check only
requires ("findings", list) and says nothing about the element type, so a list
of strings passes validation and reaches this line, where f.get raises
AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'get'.
CommunityReportsExtractor._get_text_output already handles both shapes, in both
of its helpers, so one part of the pipeline accepts string findings and the next
part crashes on them. infiniflow#7127 hardened this same expression once, for the missing
explanation key reported in infiniflow#7053, without covering the string case.
Nothing swallows the exception. _run_with_retry re-raises after exhausting its
attempts, and neither task runner catches around run_graphrag_for_kb, so the
KB-level GraphRAG task fails with progress -1 and no community reports are
written for that dataset.
Retrying does not help. extract_community_report saves
{"structured_output": response, "output": output} to a Redis checkpoint with a
7 day TTL, and cleanup_checkpoints only runs after the chunk loop, so a crash
there leaves the checkpoint behind. The next attempt replays the same
structured_output and short-circuits before calling the model at all.
Skip non-dict findings. A string finding carries no separate explanation, and
_get_text_output renders it as a section of the report, which content_ltks
tokenizes alongside the evidences, so the text is still indexed.

Review asked for visibility on the new filter. Log a debug-level count of the findings it omits, without their content, and hold it with an assertion so removing the log fails the test. Left the rest of index.py unformatted on purpose. ruff format rewrites a regex list and two logging calls 200 lines away, and that churn does not belong here.

Thks, but graphrag is not used any more |
|
Understood, and sorry for the noise. I sent three of these before the message landed, so let me close the loop rather than leave you repeating yourself. I checked for prior art on each one, but I searched for the specific defect rather than for the subsystem. Scoping the search to the directory would have found the June heads-up on #15792 and #16210 straight away. That is on me, and it is the check I will run first from now on. For what it is worth, the other two are #18990 and #18994, both closed, and none of my remaining open PRs touch |

Summary
extract_communitybuilds a community report chunk withA finding may be a plain string rather than a dict. The schema check only requires
("findings", list)and says nothing about the element type, so a list of strings passes validation and reaches this line, wheref.getraisesAttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'get'.CommunityReportsExtractor._get_text_outputhandles both shapes, in both of its helpers. One part of the pipeline accepts string findings and the next part crashes on them.Present since v0.16.0 (
dd0ebbea3, #4585) and still in v0.27.1. Before v0.18.0 the expression wasf["explanation"], so it raisedTypeErrorinstead.How solid the premise is
Worth being straight about this. I have no report of a model emitting a string finding, and the community report prompt asks for objects. The
_get_text_outputguard arrived with the initial GraphRAG import in #1793 rather than in response to a failure, so read it as inherited defensiveness, not as proof the shape occurs.What makes it worth fixing anyway is the precedent one line up. #7053 is a user hitting
KeyError: 'explanation'on this exact expression, and #7127 hardened it with.get(...)for that. So this line has already malformed once in the field, a maintainer already accepted a defensive one-liner on it, and the sibling method in the extractor guards a second malformation that this one does not.What happens when it fires
Nothing swallows it.
_run_with_retryre-raises after exhausting its attempts, and neithertask_executor.pynortask_handler.pycatches aroundrun_graphrag_for_kb, so the KB-level GraphRAG task fails at progress -1 and no community reports are written for that dataset.Retrying makes it worse rather than better.
extract_community_reportwrites{"structured_output": response, "output": output}to a Redis checkpoint with a 7 day TTL, andcleanup_checkpointsonly runs after the chunk loop. A crash in the loop leaves the checkpoint behind, so the next attempt replays the samestructured_outputand short-circuits before calling the model.Why skipping loses nothing
_get_text_outputrenders a string finding as its own section of the report, and the chunk tokenizesreport + evidencesintocontent_ltks, so the text is indexed either way. Retrieval also formatsobj["report"]for the answering model. Adding the string toevidencesas well would only duplicate it. There is a test asserting this, so the alternative is rejected for a stated reason.One thing to know about CI
rag/graphrag/general/index.pyalready failsruff format --checkonmain, one of four such files.ragflow_preflightonly runs once thecilabel is applied, so it will not fire on this PR as it stands, but labelling it will make lefthook's ruff-format job fail on that file whether or not this PR exists.I had a
ruff formatcommit here and dropped it, because it rewrites a regex list and two logging calls 200 lines from the change and that churn does not belong in a bug fix. Happy to put it back, or send it separately.Testing
