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).

CropScience technical representative reg~rding slurry rates recommended for the crop to be treated with PROTEG<:-FI ~eed Applied
Fungicide. It is recommended that PROTEGE-FL Seed Applied Fungicide be combined with a Pythium-active seed tr&at,nent product,
such as ALLEGIANCE®-FL Seed Treatment Fungicide to offer broad spectrum protection against the seed and seedling disease
complex (Rhizoctonia spp. and Pythium spp.)
Cotton:
For systemic seed and seedling protection against seedborne fungi causing seed decay and the soilborne pathogen, Rhizoclonia
solani inciting seedling damping-off, apply 0.20 - 0.53 fl.oz.lcwt of seed. For pythium seed rot and damping-off, apply Allegiance-FL
as a seed treatment at the rate of 0 .. 75 - 1.5 fl.oz.lcwt of seed to enhance broad spectrum protection.
Soybean:
For systemic protection against seedborne fungal pathogens causing seed decay and the soilbome fungus, Rhizoctonia so/ani causing
seedling damping-off, apply 0.20 - 0.27 fl.oz.lcwt. of seed. For Pythium protection, a reduced rate application of Alleglance-FL (0.2 -
0.375 fl.oz. cwt of seed) may be used. Apply Allegiance-FL at 0.75 fl.oz.lcwt. of seed for pythium protection of seed being planted into
soils known to have a history of severe pythium pressure. For early season Phytophlhora control, apply Allegiance-FL as a seed
treatment at the rate of 0.75 fl.oz.lcwt. of seed
