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).

NOTE: Do Not Ua~ Around I/OIDe Cardens, Schools, Recreat"io'ul Parks, or

Always uae a nonionie apreader lurflct"nt Ipproved for uae with food crops and
which contain at least 75% aurface active ingredients.
Do not use dirty or .uddy water for TOPGUN dilution bec&uae TOPGUN will be
inactivated.
Do not combine TOPG'JN herbicide with liQuId fer til her loluUons except IS
Ipecified below.
TOPGUN herbicide and TOPGUN tank mixes uy be applied in liquid nitrogen
and/or complete liqUid fertili£er solutions (follow label recommendations for
crop involved) when 20 to 60 gals. of dilute solution sre applied per ar.re in
combination with 1 to 2 pts. of Spreader (non:<onic) per 100 ga1s.
Equipment must be adjusted and calibrated to obtain thorough coverage of
undesirable vegetation. Inadequate coverage and/or the absence of Spreader
(nonionic) will result in a aevere. reduction of TOPGUN activity. Phoaph~te
containing l:!qu1d fertilizer lolutions w111 raduce the activity of TOPGUN
When liquid fertiliz~r solutions containing phosphorus are used with TOPGUN
and a more rapid kill is desired, use the high TOPGUN label rate.
DO NO't· combine with auspension-type liquid fertilizers because the activity of
TOPGUN .ill be reduced.
PREPLAN! JR PREEMERGENCE USES
PREPLANT OR PREffiERGENCE USE - For Kill or EIIlerged AlInuaI Broadleaf Weeds and
Gra.ses and for Top Kill and SupDression of Perennials - Apply when the weeds
and grasses are succulent and growth is from 1" to 6" high (larger plants are
less affected by this treat1llent). Note: To prevent injury to germinating
crop seedlings, do not apply preplant or preemergence to 80ils lacking clay

Precautions
Do not treat trees estab­
lished less that 3 years.
Ilo not treat Hission variety
of almonds. Do not apply to
almond trees propagated on
plum root stalks. Do not
replant almonds or peaches
in treated soil for 12 months
after treatment. Do not
apply on gravelly sand or
loamy sand soil or on soil
with less than 1% organic
matt~r. Do not treat areas
where water will accumulatp.
Do not apply to sandy soil.
Leveling and furrowing
operations after application
will lessen effectiveness of
weed control. In avocados
in Florida, this product
also controls balsam-apple
vine, rattail amaranth, and
at the higher rate, it
suppresses coral vine.
Do not apply to sanrly or
grave lly soil.
Do not use in vineyards
established less than 3
years.
Do not use in nurseries.
To avoid possible injury,
do not apply to ~es under
stress from freeze damage
for one year following the
freeze.
Use the low rate of TOPGUN on coarse textured soils anc' low organic matter
soils. Use the hlj(p rate on fine textured Goils and high organic matter
soils. Apply TOPGUN in 50 to 200 gals. of water per acre to the orchard
floor avoiding contact with fruit, foliage or stems. Add a nonionic
spreader at 16 to 32 fl. oz. per 100 gals. diluted spray. Apply when weeds

and;grasses are succulent and the new growth is from I to 6 inches tall. For
band applications or spot applications around trees, reduce the broadcast rate
and the amount of water in proportion to the area actually sprayed.
Hake only one application per year. Apply in orchards where trees have been
e!1tctblished one year or more. Do not spray under windy conditions and use a
shield for young trees. vo not apply to almonds and walnuts when nuts are on
the ground during the harvest period. Do not allow animals to graze treated
areas.
ALFALFA (Pure alfalfa at least 12 months old): For improved
control of filaree, Jim Hill mustard, and shepherdspurse,
b -~uegrass, cheatgrass, chickweed, and tansym'Jstard. Broadcast
the recommended rate of TOPGUN from Table 2 in 20-100 gals. of
water per acre with ground equipment, or in 5-10 gals. of water
per acre aerially. Add a nonionic spreader at 16 to 32 fl. oz.
per 100 gals. diluted spray mix. Apply to established alfalfa
after the last fall cutting wheil the crop is dormant and
before spring growth starts. Apply ~lhen weeds are succulent al,d
growth is 1-6 inches tall. The addition of GRAMOXONE SUPER
paraquat may be necessary as indicated to obtain adequate emerged
weed control.

LU!ITATIONS AND PRECAUTIONS: Precautions: To avoid crop injury. (1) Do not
apply if regrowth following the last fall cutting is more than 2 inches tall. \
Alfalfa foliage present at application will be burned. (2) Apply once per
growing season. -
Note: Do not pasture animals in treated fields before first cutting. or
illegal residues may result. Do not graze J cut, or harvest within 90 days
after application.
Apply once per year in the fall after the last cutting but prior to permanently
frozen ground conditions.
Alfalfa must be growing for at least 12 months before treatm~nt.
