Worksheet Grading System - Current Status
Date: 2025-11-10 Status: ⚠️ INCOMPLETE - DO NOT USE
What Exists
The following files/features were partially implemented but do not work correctly:
Database Tables
worksheet_attempts- Stores grading attemptsproblem_attempts- Stores individual problem resultsmastery_profiles- Tracks student progressworksheet_settings- User preferences
Status: Tables exist but grading logic is broken
API Routes
/api/worksheets/upload- Upload worksheet images/api/worksheets/attempts/[attemptId]- Get grading results
Status: Upload works, grading is broken
Library Files
src/lib/ai/gradeWorksheet.ts- OpenAI GPT-5 integrationsrc/lib/grading/processAttempt.ts- Grading orchestrationsrc/lib/grading/updateMasteryProfile.ts- Mastery tracking
Status: Partially implemented, has bugs, incomplete
UI Pages
/worksheets/attempts/[attemptId]- View results
Status: UI exists but backend doesn't work
What's Broken
- OpenAI Response Parsing - Wrong output index, JSON parsing issues
- Streaming Progress - Event parsing bugs, connection issues
- Socket.IO Integration - Path configuration, event handling
- No Testing Infrastructure - No way to test components independently
- No Debug UI - No visibility into what's happening
Why It Failed
Built too much at once without incremental testing.
See WORKSHEET_GRADING_POSTMORTEM.md for detailed analysis.
Next Steps
When ready to tackle this again:
- Read
WORKSHEET_GRADING_SPEC_V2.md - Start with Phase 1: Build
/worksheets/debug/openai-test - Get that working perfectly with user feedback
- Only then move to Phase 2
Do not attempt to fix the existing implementation. Start fresh following the new spec.

Migrations to Keep
Migrations 0017-0020 created the worksheet tables. These can stay but the application logic needs to be rebuilt from scratch following the new approach.
Recommendation
Leave the existing code in place but don't use it. When ready to implement:
- Build test pages first (in
/worksheets/debug/) - Get each piece working independently
- Integrate only after all pieces work
- Replace the broken production pages
This way we keep the database schema but rebuild the logic correctly.
