+Baseline refresh — 2026-06-10.
+
+First eval after the embed pool grew from 2 ripper Ollamas to 4 endpoints
+(+ .0.125 RTX 4090, + .0.126) and rag/embeddings.py gained endpoint
+rotation/split resilience (PR #8, port of zerto-docs PR #45). Run against
+the chroma/bm25 indexes extracted from the prod image built by today's
+image-only run (post-merge rebuild on the 4-endpoint pool); query embeds
+via host Ollama :11434, reranker = the prod jina-rerank instance.
+
+vs the 2026-05-22 baseline.md: bm25+rerank MRR 0.920→0.959,
+hybrid_rrf+rerank 0.875→0.960 — no regression from the mixed-provenance
+embeddings (zerto-docs ran a same-corpus ripper-only control to verify
+this property of the shared pool; see zerto eval/results/control-20260610.md).
