2025-10 RTX team performance summary for repo RTXteam/RTX. Focused on delivering Translator Sankey Diagram data preparation/visualization support and stabilizing core API surfaces to improve reliability and developer productivity. Key data/visualization work enables a Translator Sankey workflow by producing JSON-ready infores dependency data and a new result file to surface Translator information in the Sankey visualization. API work improved robustness and testability by ensuring JSON-serializable async query status responses and updating OpenAPI usage examples.

Jul 1, 2025

July 2025 RTX project delivered performance and reliability improvements to the GUI caching layer and ARS integration. Implemented conditional attribute stripping and default caching for responses with IDs starting with 'X', migrated from the deprecated ARS host to ars-prod.transltr.io, and introduced explicit timeouts for ARS UUID requests to prevent hanging connections. These changes reduce latency, increase cache hit rates, and improve overall system resilience for end users and downstream systems.

Nov 1, 2024

November 2024 (RTXteam/RTX) focused on delivering performance and reliability improvements. Key changes included a slim output format to protect browser performance, robust NaN handling to ensure valid JSON in knowledge graph edges, and a maintenance/refactor that modernized the feedback system to ResponseCache along with environment/configuration updates. These work items reduce technical debt, improve data integrity, and raise deployment confidence, with staging readiness for the primary arax.ncats.io endpoint.

October 2024: Delivered Synonyms Limit Control in API for RTX. Added backend support to parse max_synonyms from the POSTed dict and apply it (positive integers only), enabling the UI to cap synonyms returned. This reduces payload and improves responsiveness for large synonym sets. Commit: 5d10fbe2f6605b946e1ce2f950efd0c87465cd43 ('update back end to process max_synonyms in the POSTed dict. #2367').
