Image rebuild (skip scrape) / build (push) Failing after 1h37m12s
docker: production image + Gitea Actions for monthly refresh
Dockerfile: self-contained image with corpus + Chroma + BM25 baked
in. Drawbar's compose pulls + runs without volume mounts. Built from
sources.json (labels schema), PRODUCT_NAME=crop_chem by default,
HYBRID_SEARCH=true (always-on for production quality). RERANK_URL +
OLLAMA_URL get set at compose time.

.gitea/workflows/refresh.yml: monthly cron (1st @ 06:00 UTC) does
full scrape → reindex → image push. Scrapes Bayer (~30 min) +
EPA PPLS row-crop filtered (~7h). Skips reindex+push if no corpus
diff. Tags pushed: :latest, :<sha12>, :corpus-<YYYY.MM.DD>.

.gitea/workflows/image-only.yml: on-demand or auto on code-only
pushes to main (paths: docs_mcp/, rag/, scrape/, requirements.txt,
Dockerfile, sources.json). Reindexes from committed corpus, builds
image, pushes. ~10 min vs ~9h full refresh.

.gitignore: corpus/ now COMMITTED (4,159 labels, 265 MB of .md +
sidecars). Lets image-only.yml rebuild indexes without re-scraping.
chroma/ + bm25/ still gitignored (regenerable binary indexes).

.dockerignore: drops venv, eval results, PLAN/README/CLAUDE.md,
deploy/, .git/ — keeps the image lean. corpus + chroma + bm25
explicitly NOT in dockerignore (those go INTO the image).

DIRECTIONS FOR USE
It is a violation of Federal Law to use this product in a manner inconsistent with its
labeling.
Mentor should be used only in accordance with directions on this label or in separately
published Syngenta supplemental labeling directions for this product.
Do not apply this product in a way that will contact workers or other persons, either
directly or through drift. Only protected handlers may be in the area during application.
For any requirements specific to your State or Tribe, consult the agency responsible for
pesticide regulation.
FAILURE TO FOLLOW DIRECTIONS AND PRECAUTIONS ON THIS LABEL MAY
RESULT IN CROP INJURY, POOR DISEASE CONTROL, OR ILLEGAL RESIDUES.
PRODUCT USE INFORMATION
Mentor is a broad-spectrum fungicide for the control of many important plant diseases.
Integrated Pest Management
Mentor should be integrated into an overall disease and pest management strategy
(IPM) whenever the use of a fungicide is required. Cultural practices known to reduce
disease development should be followed. Consult your local agricultural authorities for
additional IPM strategies established for your area. Mentor may be used in State
Agricultural Extension advisory (disease forecasting) programs which recommend
application timing based on environmental factors favorable for disease development.
RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT
GROUP 3 FUNGICIDE
Mentor is in the Group 3 class fungicides. The mode of action of Mentor is as a
demethylation inhibitor of sterol biosynthesis (DMI) which disrupts membrane synthesis
by blocking demethylation. Fungal pathogens can develop resistance to products with
the same mode of action when used repeatedly. Because resistance development
cannot be predicted, use of this product should conform to resistance management
strategies established for the crop and use area. Consult your local or State agricultural
authorities for resistance management strategies that are complementary to those in
this label. Resistance management strategies may include rotating and/or tank mixing
with products having different modes of action or limiting the total number of
applications per season. Syngenta Crop Protection encourages responsible resistance
Mentor
Page 5
management to ensure effective long-term control of the fungal diseases on this label.
Mentor should not be alternated or tank mixed with any fungicide to which resistance
has already developed.
Mixing Instructions
Prepare no more spray mixture than is needed for the immediate operation. Thoroughly
clean spray equipment before using this product. Vigorous agitation is necessary to
maintain uniformity of the spray mixture. Maintain maximum agitation throughout the
spraying operation. Do not let the spray mixture stand overnight in the spray tank.
Flush the spray equipment thoroughly following each use and apply the rinsate to
a previously treated area.
Mentor Alone: Add ѿ of the required amount of plain water to the spray or mixing
tank. With the agitator running, drop the required amount of Mentor into the tank all at
once. Continue agitation while adding the remainder of the water. Begin application of
the spray solution after the Mentor has dissolved, and the material has completely
dispersed into the mix water. Maintain agitation until all of the mixture has been
applied.
Mentor + Tank Mixtures: Mentor is usually compatible with all tank mix partners listed
on this label. Add
1/3 of the required amount of plain water to the spray or mixing tank.
With the agitator running, drop the required amount of Mentor into the tank all at once.
Continue agitation while adding the remainder of the water. Allow the Mentor to
dissolve and the desired amount of other products recommended for tank mixture to
become completely dispersed. Continue agitation to maintain a uniform suspension
until all of the spray solution has been applied.
If using Mentor in a tank mixture, observe all directions for use, crops/sites, use rates,
dilution ratios, precautions, and limitations which appear on the tank mix product label.
No label dosage rate can be exceeded, and the most restrictive label precautions and
limitations must be followed. This product should not be mixed with any product, which
prohibits such mixing. Tank mixtures or other applications of products referenced on this
label are permitted only in those states in which the referenced products are registered.
It is the pesticide users responsibility to ensure that all products are registered for the
intended use. Read and follow the applicable restrictions and limitations and directions
for use on all product labels involved in tank mixing. Users must follow the most
restrictive directions for use and precautionary statements of each product in the tank
mixture.
