This directory contains the committed end-to-end reference examples for raw ColabFold-like outputs -> AFDB integration artifacts.
The two committed runnable references are:
examples/colabfold_monomer_e2e/: three curated monomer fixturesexamples/colabfold_complex_e2e/: one homodimer and one heterodimer fixture
Both references include:
- normalized
*-meta_v1.json+*-model_v1.pdbinputs - converted confidence and PAE JSONs
- merged manifests
- per-model and per-chain metadata JSONs plus batch files
- ModelCIF input JSONs
- generated ModelCIF files
- DSSP-enriched mmCIF files
- enriched PDB files
- BCIF outputs with backend/fallback notes
- exact regeneration commands in
config/commands.txt
For the complex reference, the committed complexPredictionAccuracy_* fields
in the JSON metadata are computed outputs from the iPSAE enrichment stage, not
template literals. The ModelCIF template under
uniprot/templates/colabfold_example_modelcif_metadata.json
only supplies static ModelCIF scaffolding plus software parameter definitions;
the computed complex metrics are injected from the enriched complex model JSONs
before ModelCIF export.
The committed DuckDB subset
examples/uniprot_example_subset.duckdb
contains only the six UniProt accessions needed by the monomer and complex
references, so the examples no longer depend on a VM-local UniProt database.
Regenerate the monomer reference from the repo root with:
.venv/bin/python scripts/generate_colabfold_e2e_example.py \
--duckdb examples/uniprot_example_subset.duckdb \
--output-dir examples/colabfold_monomer_e2eRegenerate the complex reference with:
.venv/bin/python scripts/generate_colabfold_e2e_example.py \
--duckdb examples/uniprot_example_subset.duckdb \
--output-dir examples/colabfold_complex_e2e \
--example-id AF-0000000066074510 \
--example-id AF-0000000300000101See examples/colabfold_monomer_e2e/README.md
and examples/colabfold_complex_e2e/README.md
for the selected fixtures, caveats, and generated file layout.
Run these checks from the repo root after installing the project environment. They validate one representative monomer and one representative complex from the committed reference trees.
Use run-schema-validation with the dedicated example-output schemas for
committed model_jsons/*.json, chain_jsons/*.json, and
config/provider.json files, and use the same validator on the committed batch
files:
.venv/bin/python main.py run-schema-validation \
-i examples/colabfold_monomer_e2e/model_jsons/AF-0000000300000001.json \
-t model-summary

-t collection-doc
.venv/bin/python main.py run-schema-validation \
-i examples/colabfold_complex_e2e/config/provider.json \
-t providerFor these committed e2e references, use model-summary for model_jsons/*.json
and model_batches/*.json, collection-doc for chain_jsons/*.json and
chain_batches/*.json, and provider for config/provider.json. The
canonical model schema remains for full model metadata entries only.
The validate-metadata-file command uses the same shared metadata schema
validator as run-schema-validation and requires the same explicit --type
value, for example:
.venv/bin/python main.py validate-metadata-file \
--file examples/colabfold_monomer_e2e/model_jsons/AF-0000000300000001.json \
--type model-summaryValidate the confidence JSON, the PAE JSON, and the confidence/PAE length relationship:

examples/colabfold_complex_e2e/modelcif/AF-0000000300000101-model_v1.cifOpen representative PDB, ModelCIF, and BCIF files in the Mol* web viewer:
- Go to https://molstar.org/viewer/.
- Drag and drop the file into the browser window, or use Open Files in the left panel.
- Confirm the structure opens correctly, no error messages are shown in the viewer, and the structure looks structurally correct by eye.

Optionally open the same files in ChimeraX or another preferred structure viewer such as PyMOL. The expected result is a clean import with no parser/import errors and a structure that looks correct by eye.
