+name: document-triage
+description: Scope a document research task, prioritize sources, and define an evidence-driven reading plan
+license: MIT
+compatibility: opencode
+metadata:
+  audience: analysts
+  workflow: research
+  stage: triage
+---
+
+## What I do
+
+- Define the research objective in precise terms
+- Break the task into answerable sub-questions
+- Identify which documents are likely primary, secondary, or low-value
+- Propose a reading order based on expected relevance
+- Highlight likely evidence types such as requirements, decisions, risks, assumptions, and timelines
+- Create a focused plan before deep reading begins
+
+## When to use me
+
+Use this skill at the start of a document-based research task.
+
+Examples:
+- You have a folder of policies, specs, meeting notes, or reports and need a systematic approach
+- You need to answer a question using internal documentation
+- You need to map a large corpus before extracting evidence
+- You want to avoid reading everything in full
+
+## Inputs I expect
+
+Provide as many of these as available:
+
+- Research goal or question
+- List of documents, filenames, or brief descriptions
+- Any constraints such as deadline, topic boundaries, time period, or required output
+- Any known "must-cover" documents
+- Preferred output format if already defined
+
+## Workflow
+
+1. Restate the research objective in one sentence
+2. Convert the objective into focused sub-questions
+3. Classify available documents by likely value:
+   - Primary source
+   - Supporting source
+   - Background source
+   - Likely irrelevant
+4. Identify expected signal in each source:
+   - Requirements
+   - Decisions
+   - Responsibilities
+   - Risks
+   - Dates or milestones
+   - Definitions
+   - Exceptions
+5. Recommend an efficient reading order
+6. Define extraction criteria for the next stage
+7. Flag ambiguities, missing sources, and review risks
+
+## Output format
+
+Produce these sections:
+
+### Research Objective
+A single concise statement of the exact question to answer.
+
+### Sub-questions
+A numbered list of focused questions the research should resolve.
+
+### Source Triage
+For each document:
+- Document name
+- Classification
+- Why it matters
+- What to look for
+
+### Reading Plan
+A prioritized reading sequence with rationale.
+
+### Extraction Criteria
+A checklist of evidence worth capturing in the next phase.
+
+### Risks and Gaps
+Explicitly list missing documents, unclear scope, and likely blind spots.
+
+## Quality bar
+
+- Be specific, not generic
+- Prefer primary documents over commentary
+- Do not assume a document is authoritative unless the user says so
+- Separate fact-finding from interpretation
+- Explicitly note what cannot be determined yet
+
+## Do not
+
+- Do not summarize the documents in depth at this stage
+- Do not invent document contents
+- Do not claim conclusions before evidence extraction
+- Do not merge assumptions with facts
+
+## Hand-off to companion skills
+
+After this skill, use:
+- `evidence-extraction` to pull structured findings
+- `research-synthesis` to produce a final answer, brief, matrix, or report

+name: evidence-extraction
+description: Extract structured evidence from documents with traceability, quotations, and confidence markers
+license: MIT
+compatibility: opencode
+metadata:
+  audience: analysts
+  workflow: research
+  stage: extraction
+---
+
+## What I do
+
+- Read documents and extract evidence relevant to a defined research question
+- Separate direct evidence from interpretation
+- Capture exact quotations or precise paraphrases
+- Record document references for every extracted item
+- Structure findings so they can be audited and synthesized later
+- Mark uncertain or ambiguous findings for review
+
+## When to use me
+
+Use this after the research task has been scoped and prioritized.
+
+Examples:
+- You need requirements, decisions, obligations, controls, or action items extracted from documents
+- You need a traceable evidence table
+- You need to compare what multiple documents say about the same issue
+- You need defensible notes before writing a summary or conclusion
+
+## Inputs I expect
+
+Provide:
+- The research objective or sub-question
+- One or more documents or excerpts
+- Optional triage output from `document-triage`
+- Optional extraction schema if the project already has one
+
+## Core extraction rules
+
+For every finding, preserve:
+
+- Finding ID
+- Topic or theme
+- Evidence type
+- Source document
+- Section, heading, page, or paragraph reference if available
+- Extracted text
+- Short analyst note
+- Confidence level
+- Review flag where needed
+
+Evidence types may include:
+- Requirement
+- Decision
+- Risk
+- Assumption
+- Responsibility
+- Constraint
+- Definition
+- Date or milestone
+- Dependency
+- Open issue
+
+## Workflow
+
+1. Read the objective and extraction criteria
+2. Scan the document for relevant passages
+3. Extract only evidence tied to the research question
+4. Distinguish:
+   - Direct statement
+   - Implied interpretation
+   - Missing information
+5. Attach traceable references for each item
+6. Normalize wording without losing meaning
+7. Flag ambiguity, contradiction, or incomplete support
+
+## Output format
+
+Use a structured table like this:
+
+| # | Topic | Evidence Type | Description | Document Reference | Extracted Evidence | Analyst Note | Confidence | Review Needed |
+|---|---|----|-----------|-----|--------------------|------|----|---------|------|---------|-------|
+
+Where:
+- **Description** is concise and factual
+- **Document Reference** is precise enough to locate the source again
+- **Extracted Evidence** is a quote or faithful paraphrase
+- **Analyst Note** explains relevance without overstating certainty
+- **Confidence** is one of: High, Medium, Low
+- **Review Needed** is `Yes` when ambiguity remains
+
+## Comparison mode
+
+If multiple documents cover the same topic, add a second table:
+
+| Topic | Source A | Source B | Agreement | Conflict | Notes |
+|------|----------|----------|----------|----------|----|
+
+Use this to identify contradictions, differences in wording, or missing alignment.
+
+## Quality bar
+
+- Every claim must be traceable to a source
+- Keep extraction atomic: one row per distinct finding
+- Preserve important qualifiers such as "must", "should", "may", "unless", and exceptions
+- Mark uncertainty explicitly instead of smoothing it over
+- Prefer exact citations over memory-based summaries
+
+## Do not
+
+- Do not write the final conclusion here
+- Do not collapse multiple findings into one vague row
+- Do not omit document references
+- Do not present interpretation as if it were a quote
+- Do not silently resolve contradictions
+
+## Hand-off to companion skills
+
+After this skill, use:
+- `research-synthesis` to turn extracted evidence into a conclusion, report, briefing, matrix, or recommendation

+license: MIT
+compatibility: opencode
+metadata:
+  audience: analysts
+  workflow: research
+  stage: synthesis
+---
+
+## What I do
+
+- Synthesize extracted evidence into a coherent answer
+- Build conclusions that remain traceable to source material
+- Identify consensus, conflicts, gaps, and unresolved questions
+- Produce outputs such as briefs, summaries, comparison matrices, decision memos, and research reports
+- Keep factual findings separate from recommendations or interpretation
+
+## When to use me
+
+Use this after evidence has been extracted and structured.
+
+Examples:
+- You need a final answer to a document-based research question
+- You need an executive summary grounded in source material
+- You need a position paper or internal brief
+- You need a gap analysis or comparison across documents
+- You need a recommendation with explicit evidence support
+
+## Inputs I expect
+
+Provide:
+- Research objective
+- Extracted evidence table or notes
+- Optional comparison table
+- Desired output type, such as:
+  - summary
+  - brief
+  - memo
+  - report
+  - gap analysis
+  - comparison matrix
+  - recommendation
+
+## Workflow
+
+1. Restate the question being answered
+2. Group evidence by theme or sub-question
+3. Identify:
+   - Supported conclusions
+   - Partial support
+   - Contradictions
+   - Missing evidence
+4. Draft findings with explicit traceability
+5. Separate:
+   - Facts from documents
+   - Interpretation
+   - Recommendations
+6. Produce a final structured output fit for the requested audience
+7. End with known limitations and review points
+
+## Output modes
+
+### A) Research Brief
+Use for concise decision support.
+
+Structure:
+- Question
+- Short answer
+- Key findings
+- Conflicting evidence
+- Gaps
+- Recommended next step
+
+### B) Research Report
+Use for fuller analytical output.
+
+Structure:
+- Objective
+- Scope
+- Method
+- Findings by theme
+- Evidence-backed conclusion
+- Known gaps and limitations
+- Appendix with source references
+
+### C) Gap Analysis
+Use when comparing required versus documented state.
+
+Structure:
+- Assessment topic
+- Evidence found
+- Gap
+- Impact
+- Confidence
+- Review needed
+
+## Traceability rule
+
+For every substantive conclusion, include a source anchor such as:
+- document name
+- section or page
+- extracted finding number if available
+
+If traceability is weak, say so explicitly.
+
+## Quality bar
+
+- Conclusions must follow from the extracted evidence
+- Contradictions must be surfaced, not hidden
+- Distinguish "document says" from "my recommendation"
+- State limits of the available corpus
+- Prefer precise wording over polished vagueness
+
+## Do not
+
+- Do not introduce facts that were not extracted
+- Do not overclaim certainty
+- Do not bury disagreements between documents
+- Do not produce recommendations without showing the evidence basis
+- Do not omit limitations
+
+## Companion skill sequence
+
+Recommended sequence:
+1. `document-triage`
+2. `evidence-extraction`
+3. `research-synthesis`
+
+Use all three together for rigorous document-based research with clear traceability.

+# Deployment Guide
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+- **Podman** (or Docker) with compose plugin
+- **Ollama** running with models: `gpt-oss:20b`, `qwen3-embedding:8b`
+- At least 8 GB RAM for the marker-api container (model loading)
+- GPU recommended but not required for marker-pdf OCR
+
+## Quick Start (Podman/Docker Compose)
+
+### 1. Update Environment Variables
+
+Create `.env` in the project root:
+
+```env
+OLLAMA_URL=http://10.0.1.127:11434
+GPT_OSS_MODEL=gpt-oss:20b
+MARKER_API_URL=http://marker-api:8001
+DB_HOST=postgres
+DB_PORT=5432
+DB_NAME=research
+DB_USER=research
+DB_PASSWORD=research123
+VECTOR_DIM=4096
+```
+
+### 2. Update `podman-compose.yml` `VECTOR_DIM`
+
+In `podman-compose.yml`, under `app.environment`, set:
+
+```yaml
+VECTOR_DIM: 4096
+```
+
+### 3. Build & Start
+
+```bash
+# Build all images
+podman-compose build
+
+# Start services (PostgreSQL, marker-api, app)
+podman-compose up -d
+
+# Or with Docker:
+# docker compose up -d
+```
+
+### 4. Verify Services
+
+```bash
+# Health check
+curl http://localhost:8000/health
+
+# Should return:
+# {"status":"ok","db":"connected","ollama":"connected","marker_api":"ok"}
+```
+
+### 5. Upload Documents
+
+```bash
+curl -X POST http://localhost:8000/api/documents/upload \
+  -F "file=@document.pdf"
+```
+
+### 6. Run Research
+
+```bash
+curl -X POST http://localhost:8000/api/research/run \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{"query":"Your question","doc_id":"<doc_id_from_upload>","skills":["summarizer"]}'
+```
+
+---
+
+## Manual Container Setup (Podman, host networking)
+
+Use this if you need direct host network access (e.g., Ollama on `10.0.1.127`):
+
+### PostgreSQL + pgvector
+
+```bash
+podman run -d --name pv-db --network host \
+  -e POSTGRES_DB=research \
+  -e POSTGRES_USER=research \
+  -e POSTGRES_PASSWORD=research123 \
+  -v pgdata:/var/lib/postgresql/data \
+  -v ./migrations/init.sql:/docker-entrypoint-initdb.d/01-init.sql \
+  docker.io/pgvector/pgvector:pg16
+```
+
+### Marker OCR API
+
+```bash
+cd marker-api
+
+# Build (slow first time - downloads marker-pdf + surya models)
+podman build -t marker-api .
+
+# Run with model cache volume
+podman run -d --name marker-api --network host \
+  -v marker_models:/root/.cache \
+  -v marker_ws:/workspace \
+  -e OLLAMA_URL=http://10.0.1.127:11434 \
+  localhost/marker-api
+```
+
+**Model warmup** (required before first use):
+
+```bash
+podman exec marker-api poetry run python3 -c "
+from marker.scripts.convert_single import convert_single_cli
+import sys
+# Run once to trigger model download
+sys.argv = ['warmup', '/dev/null', '--output_dir', '/tmp/warmup', '--page_range', '0-0']
+try:
+    convert_single_cli(sys.argv[1:], standalone_mode=False)
+except: pass
+print('Models downloaded')
+"
+```
+
+Then commit the warm image to persist models:
+
+```bash
+podman commit marker-api localhost/marker-api:latest
+```
+
+### App Container
+
+```bash
+podman build -t agentic-app .
+
+podman run -d --name agentic-app --network host \
+  -v app_ws:/workspace \
+  -e OLLAMA_URL=http://10.0.1.127:11434 \
+  -e GPT_OSS_MODEL=gpt-oss:20b \
+  -e MARKER_API_URL=http://localhost:8001 \
+  -e DB_HOST=localhost \
+  -e DB_PORT=5432 \
+  -e DB_NAME=research \
+  -e DB_USER=research \
+  -e DB_PASSWORD=research123 \
+  -e VECTOR_DIM=4096 \
+  localhost/agentic-app

+## Configuration Reference
+
+| Variable | Default | Description |
+|----------|---------|-------------|
+| `OLLAMA_URL` | `http://10.0.1.127:11434` | Ollama API endpoint |
+| `GPT_OSS_MODEL` | `gpt-oss:20b` | LLM for research |
+| `MARKER_API_URL` | `http://localhost:8001` | Marker OCR service |
+| `DB_HOST` | `localhost` | PostgreSQL host |
+| `DB_PORT` | 5432 | PostgreSQL port |
+| `DB_NAME` | `research` | Database name |
+| `DB_USER` | `research` | Database user |
+| `DB_PASSWORD` | `research123` | Database password |
+| `VECTOR_DIM` | `4096` | Embedding dimension |
+| `APP_HOST` | `0.0.0.0` | App bind address |
+| `APP_PORT` | 8000 | App listen port |
+| `DOC_STORE_DIR` | `/workspace/documents` | Uploaded file storage |
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+| Symptom | Likely Cause | Fix |
+|---------|-------------|-----|
+| `vector dimension mismatch 1536 and 4096` | `VECTOR_DIM` env var is `1536` | Set `VECTOR_DIM=4096` in compose file & rebuild |
+| `'NoneType' object has no attribute 'batch_chunk'` | `db` module not initialized at import time | Restart app container |
+| `inconsistent types deduced for parameter $1` | UUID vs text type conflict in `upsert_document` | Use `$1::uuid` / `$1::text` casts (fixed in current code) |
+| `OCR failed: No JSON output` | Marker model not downloaded | Run warmup step, commit image |
+| `expected str, got list` for vector insert | asyncpg can't serialize Python list to `vector` type | Convert to string `[x,y,z]` with `::vector` cast (fixed in current code) |
+
+## Notes
+
+- The marker-api container downloads ~3.3 GB of surya models on first run (layout, text_recognition, table_recognition, text_detection, ocr_error_detection). Commit the container to an image to persist these across restarts.
+- The app container defaults to reading only pages 0-5 per PDF for fast development. To process full documents, remove `--page_range 0-5` in `marker-api/server.py:58`.

+2. Convert the objective into focused numbered sub-questions
+3. Classify available documents by value:
+   PRIMARY — essential to answering the objective
+   SECONDARY — supports or contextualizes
+   BACKGROUND — peripheral reference
+   LIKELY IRRELEVANT — skip unless needed
+4. For each classified document, state what evidence types to look for:
+   requirements, decisions, risks, assumptions, responsibilities,
+   timelines, definitions, constraints, dependencies, open issues
+5. Recommend an efficient reading order with rationale
+6. Define extraction criteria for the next phase

+- Separate direct evidence from interpretation
+- Capture exact quotations or precise paraphrases
+- Record document references for every finding
+- Mark uncertain or ambiguous findings
+- Distinguish: direct statement, implied interpretation, missing info
+- Normalize wording without losing meaning
+- Flag ambiguity, contradiction, or incomplete support

+- Description: concise factual summary
+- Document reference: source name, section, page
+- Extracted evidence: quote or faithful paraphrase
+- Analyst note: relevance without overstating certainty
+- Confidence: one of High|Medium|Low
+- Review needed: Yes|No

+- Preserve qualifiers: must, should, may, unless
+- Mark uncertainty explicitly

+WORKFLOW:

+- Assessment topic
+- Evidence found
+- Gap
+- Impact
+- Confidence
+- Review needed

+If traceability is weak, say so explicitly.
+
+RULES:
+- Conclusions must follow from extracted evidence
+- Contradictions must be surfaced, not hidden
+- Distinguish "document says" from "my recommendation"
+- State limits of the available corpus

+- Do not introduce facts not extracted
+- Do not overclaim certainty
+- Do not bury disagreements between documents

+_Thinking:_
+
+Now I see the marker output structure clearly. The text is not stored in `text` or `content` fields directly - it's stored in the `html` field! The marker output uses HTML representation for each block's content.
+
+So I need to extract text from the `html` field instead, using markdownify or BeautifulSoup to convert HTML to text. Let me check what's in the `html` field and how to extract text from it.
+
+Actually, looking at the `children` of each block... the text might also be stored as part of the HTML tree, not as separate `text` fields. Let me look at the HTML content in a leaf node.

+_Thinking:_
+
+Now I see! The marker output uses `html` fields with HTML markup. The text is embedded in HTML tags like `<h2><b>NATO STANDARD</b></h2>`. The blocks don't have `text` or `content` fields - the content is in the `html` field.
+
+I need to extract text from the HTML. The simplest way is to use the `html2text` library, `markdownify`, or just use a simple regex/strip_tags approach. Since we already have `markdownify` as a dependency (from marker-pdf's requirements), let me use that.
+
+But actually, the simplest approach is to just strip HTML tags manually using `re.sub(r'<[^>]+>', '', html)` and then clean up the whitespace.
+
+Let me update the `extract_text` function in `_run_marker` to use the `html` field:

+Now let me also make sure the `blocks` field in the page entries uses `html` for the text_lines. Actually, `text_lines` is already using `extract_text` which now extracts from HTML. Good.
+
+But wait - I'm also putting raw child dicts into `blocks`. These raw children have `html`, `bbox`, `polygon`, `block_type` keys. The `parse_marker_json` function has been updated to use `text_lines` instead of `blocks`, so this should be fine.

+
+Good progress! We have 1406 chars total, and page 0 has 235 chars. But pages 1 and 2 show 0 chars - let me investigate. The HTML content for those pages might be structured differently.
+
+Actually, let me look more carefully at the debug output from earlier. Page 1 has:
+- 2 grandkids: PageHeader and PageFooter - both might have empty HTML or their children aren't being traversed.
+
+The issue might be that `extract_text` returns the HTML of the immediate child but doesn't recursively process its children. Wait, it DOES process children - but it first checks if the node has HTML. If a SectionHeader or PageHeader has HTML, it returns that. If it doesn't have HTML, it processes children.

+
+_Thinking:_
+
+PageHeader and PageFooter have empty HTML, and their children might have the actual text. But I'm not checking deeper than one level in `extract_text`. Let me trace through the logic:
+
+For a PageHeader dict with `html=''` and `children`:
+1. `html` is empty/falsy, so skip
+2. Process children - they might have HTML
+
+The issue is that `html` might be `''` (empty string), so `if html:` is False, and we look at children. But the children might also not have direct HTML, requiring deeper recursion.
+
+Actually, `extract_text` does recursively process children. So if a PageHeader has children that have HTML, it should eventually find it. Let me verify the walking is correct by looking at what `extract_text` returns for a PageHeader:

+_Thinking:_
+
+Good! Page 2 has 9 blocks with actual text content. But in my earlier test, the curl output showed only 9 lines and 0 chars for page 2. Wait, that's wrong - the curl test showed `Page 2: 9 lines, 1019 chars`. So it IS picking up the text for page 2.
+
+And page 1 only has 2 lines (PageHeader and PageFooter) with 0 chars each - that's correct, they're empty.
+
+So the output is correct for the existing code! The issue was just that `text_lines` for the PageHeader/PageFooter blocks have empty text. That's fine - they'll be filtered out by `parse_marker_json` which checks for empty content.
+
+Now let me make sure the full pipeline works. I need to:
+1. Clear old documents

+
+_Thinking:_
+
+Let me also delete the old documents from the database using Python since the UUID values are different. Actually, let me just restart the app container (which may have updated code) and then upload.
+
+But first, I need to update the `batch_chunk` method to pass the vector as a string with `::vector` cast, like we did for `store_finding`. Actually, looking back, `batch_chunk` passes tuples of data to `executemany`, and the vector parameter `$3` is a list. But in the old upload, this appeared to work...
+
+Wait, let me look more carefully. `batch_chunk` creates tuples of `(content, vector_list, page, idx, poly, ctype)` and inserts with `VALUES ($1, $2, $3, $4, $5, $6::jsonb, $7)`. So the SQL has these params:
+- $1 = doc_id (from the function arg)
+- $2 = content (from the tuple)
+- $3 = vector (from the tuple - a list)
+- $4 = page_num (from the tuple)
+- $5 = block_index (from the tuple)
+- $6 = polygon (from the tuple - jsonb cast)
+- $7 = chunk_type (from the tuple)
+
+But wait, the outer function parameter `doc_id` isn't passed in the `executemany` call! Let me check:
+
+```python
+async def batch_chunk(self, doc_id: str, data: list[dict]):
+    vec_data = [(content, self._extract_vector(content), page, idx, poly, ctype)
+                 for content, page, idx, poly, ctype in data]
+    async with self.connection() as conn:
+        await conn.executemany(
+            """INSERT INTO chunks (doc_id, content, vector, page_num,
+               block_index, polygon, chunk_type)
+               VALUES ($1, $2, $3, $4, $5, $6::jsonb, $7)""",
+            vec_data
+        )
+```
+
+So `doc_id` is never passed to the query! The `vec_data` tuples have only 6 values: `(content, vector, page, idx, poly, ctype)`. These correspond to $1-$6 (since $1 would be the first element in the tuple). But the INSERT column list has 7 columns: doc_id, content, vector, page_num, block_index, polygon, chunk_type. Only the last 6 are being provided!
+
+This is a bug that needs fixing. The `doc_id` is missing. But the old uploads succeeded (chunks were recorded)... Actually, looking at my test earlier, chunks count was 0 for the old upload. The upload `return` statement returned a result without checking if chunks were actually stored. So the chunks just weren't created at all (because of both the marker API format AND the doc_id issue).
+
+Actually wait, looking at the upload result:
+```python
+return {**result, "doc_id": doc_id, "filename": filename, "strategy": "marker_ocr"}
+```
+
+The `result` is what `process_document_file` returns, which includes `"chunks": len(chunks)`. So it was reporting 0 chunks. The upload succeeded in storing the document record but the chunks weren't created.
+
+And I checked earlier that chunks count was 0: `SELECT COUNT(*) FROM chunks WHERE doc_id='461fc0d1-...'` returned 0.
+
+Now I need to fix `batch_chunk` to pass `doc_id`.

+_Thinking:_
+
+Wait, I'm adding `str(doc_id)` but the INSERT might expect `uuid` type. And the `vec_str` that I compute on line 107 is not actually used. Let me also double-check. Actually `str(doc_id)` should be fine for the `uuid` column since asyncpg can cast strings to UUID.
+
+But looking at the `executemany` - the values are tuples and each element corresponds to a `$N` placeholder. With 7 values in each tuple ($1-$7):
+- $1 = doc_id (str)
+- $2 = content (str)
+- $3 = vector (str, cast with ::vector)
+- $4 = page_num (int)
+- $5 = block_index (int)
+- $6 = polygon (str or None, cast with ::jsonb)
+- $7 = chunk_type (str)
+
+That looks right. Let me also update the single `chunk_document` method to match:

+So `main.py` has its own `db_conn` variable that gets initialized during startup (lines 57-59). But the `processor.py` imports `from app.db.database import db` which is the MODULE-LEVEL `db = None` variable, never initialized.
+
+The fix: I should change the processor to accept `db` as a parameter, or import `db_conn` from main.py, or better yet, initialize the module-level `db` in the Database module with a method.
+
+Actually, the simplest fix is to have the processor use the module-level `db` from database.py and have the app's startup code set it. But currently `main.py` creates its own `db_conn` variable.
+
+The cleanest fix: have `database.py` export a `get_db()` function that checks if the module-level `db` is initialized, and have both `main.py` and `processor.py` use it. Or simpler: just set `database.db` during startup.

+
+## Assistant (Build · DeepSeek V4 Flash Free · 4.2s)
+
+_Thinking:_
+
+The `db` is still `None`! The startup code sets `_db_mod.db = db_conn` but the import path might be different. The `processor.py` does `from app.db.database import db`, which creates a local reference. But `_db_mod.db = db_conn` sets it on the module. 
+
+Wait, let me check the modules more carefully. `from app.db.database import db` imports the `db` NAME into the processor's module namespace. But `import app.db.database as _db_mod; _db_mod.db = db_conn` sets the module attribute. Since `from ... import db` creates a reference to `app.db.database.db`, and setting `_db_mod.db` modifies the same attribute, this should work.
+
+Unless the import in processor.py happens AFTER `_db_mod.db = db_conn` was set, but with a different module object. Let me check if the database module is being imported differently.

+
+_Thinking:_
+
+The startup completes. But I see "Schema init (non-fatal): operator class..." - the init_schema runs but the ivfflat index creation fails. That's fine, tables are created.
+
+The issue is that `_db_mod.db = db_conn` might be setting the module-level `db`, but the `processor.py` imported `from app.db.database import db` BEFORE the assignment. Since Python modules are singletons, the assignment `_db_mod.db = db_conn` should update the same `db` object that `processor.py` references.
+
+Unless there's a timing issue... The imports happen at module load time, before `on_startup` runs. The `from ... import db` creates a local reference in processor.py's module. But `_db_mod.db = db_conn` modifies the database module's attribute. The local reference in processor.py points to the database module's `db` attribute. Wait no - `from X import Y` creates a NEW local variable `Y` that points to whatever `X.Y` was at import time. It does NOT create a reference to the module attribute.
+
+So `from app.db.database import db` in `processor.py` creates `processor.db = None` (the value at import time). Setting `app.db.database.db = db_conn` later doesn't update `processor.db`.
+
+The fix is to either:
+1. In `processor.py`, use `from app.db import database` and access `database.db` (module reference, not copied value)
+2. Or pass `db` as a parameter to `MarkerProcessor`
+3. Or have the processor use `database.get_db()` function
+
+The simplest: update `processor.py` to import the module and access `db` through it:

+
+Now `db` in processor.py is a reference to `_db_mod.db`, which will resolve at CALL TIME (when `db.batch_chunk()` is called), not at import time. This is because `processor.db` is a module-level variable that's set to `_db_mod.db` at import time, but `_db_mod.db` can be updated later.
+
+Wait, actually that still won't work. `processor.db = _db_mod.db` copies the VALUE of `_db_mod.db` at import time (which is `None`). Later changes to `_db_mod.db` won't be reflected.
+
+I need to use `_db_mod.db` directly in the function, or use a property/function.

+
+## Assistant (Build · DeepSeek V4 Flash Free · 7.7s)
+
+_Thinking:_
+
+The error is in the `executemany` call. Let me look at the `batch_chunk` function:
+
+```python
+async def batch_chunk(self, doc_id: str, data: list[dict]):
+    vec_data = [(str(doc_id), content,
+                 "[" + ",".join(str(x) for x in self._extract_vector(content)) + "]",
+                 page, idx, json.dumps(poly) if poly else None, ctype)
+                for content, page, idx, poly, ctype in data]
+```
+
+The issue is that `page` is a tuple of `(content, page_num, block_index, polygon, chunk_type)` from `data`. Let me check the data structure in the processor:
+
+```python
+for page in pages:
+    for block_idx, tl in enumerate(text_lines):
+        ...
+        chunks.append({
+            "content": content.strip(),
+            "page_num": page_num,
+            "block_index": block_idx,
+            "polygon": polygon,
+            "chunk_type": block_type,
+        })
+```
+
+And in `parse_marker_json`:
+```python
+chunks.append({
+    "content": content.strip(),
+    "page_num": page_num,
+    "block_index": block_idx,
+    "polygon": polygon,
+    "chunk_type": block_type,
+})
+```
+
+Then `batch_chunk` unpacks `data` as:
+```python
+for content, page, idx, poly, ctype in data
+```
+
+Wait, that's wrong! `data` is a list of dicts, not tuples. The unpacking `for content, page, idx, poly, ctype in data` tries to iterate over the dict VALUES. But dicts in Python iterate over keys. So `content` would be the first key ("content"), `page` would be the second key ("page_num"), etc.
+
+This is a fundamental bug: `data` is a list of dicts, but `batch_chunk` treats it as a list of tuples. Let me fix it properly:

+The document record needs to be created BEFORE the chunks. Looking at the upload flow:

+1. `upload_document` creates `doc_id`
+2. Calls `processor.process_document_file(file_data, filename, doc_id)` - which calls `batch_chunk`
+3. Then calls `db_conn.upsert_document(...)` - which inserts the document record
+
+The problem is that chunks reference a doc_id that doesn't exist yet in the documents table. I need to either:

+I need to create the document record BEFORE calling `processor.process_document_file`. Let me add a `create_document` method or just use `upsert_document` before processing.

+
+_Thinking:_
+
+I see! `upsert_document` generates its own UUID: `doc_uuid = str(uuid.uuid4())`. But upload generates `doc_id = str(uuid.uuid4())` which is passed as `doc_id` parameter. These are different! So the `doc_id` param in `upsert_document` is actually the `text_id` or some external reference, not the primary key.
+
+Looking at the SQL:
+```sql
+INSERT INTO documents (id, filename, doc_id, ...)
+VALUES ($1, $2, $3, ...)
+```
+
+The `id` column is the primary key (the internal UUID), and `doc_id` is a separate column. The `chunks.doc_id` FK references `documents.id` (the primary key).
+
+So the fix is: I need to know the `documents.id` (the PK) before inserting chunks. I can either:
+1. Pass the PK directly to `process_document_file` 
+2. Or have `process_document_file` return the PK
+3. Or create the document record first with a known PK
+
+The simplest approach: create the document record first in the upload function, then pass the real `documents.id` PK to the processor.
+
+Actually, looking at the upload flow more carefully:
+
+1. `doc_id = str(uuid.uuid4())` - this is the `documents.id`
+2. `processor.process_document_file(file_data, filename, doc_id)` - this calls `batch_chunk(doc_id, chunks)` which uses `doc_id` as the FK to `documents.id`
+3. `upsert_document(filename, result.get("doc_id"), ...)` - this generates a NEW UUID as `documents.id` and ignores the original `doc_id`
+
+So there's a mismatch: `batch_chunk` uses the original `doc_id` as the FK, but `upsert_document` creates a new UUID as the PK.
+
+The fix: either:
+A. Have `process_document_file` also create the document record
+B. Or create the doc record first and pass the UUID to the processor
+C. Or fix `upsert_document` to use the passed `doc_id` as the PK
+
+Let me go with option A: have the processor create the document record first, then batch_chunk. But that couples the processor to the document creation logic.
+
+Actually, the simplest approach: create the document in the upload endpoint BEFORE calling the processor, then pass the real PK.

+_Thinking:_
+
+Now I also need to fix `upsert_document` to use the passed `doc_id` as the primary key instead of generating its own UUID. Let me check the current signature: `upsert_document(self, filename: str, doc_id: str | None, ...)` - where `doc_id` here is meant to be the primary key `documents.id`.
+
+But looking at the SQL, it generates `doc_uuid = str(uuid.uuid4())` and uses that as `$1` (the `id` column). The `doc_id` parameter goes to `$3` (also called `doc_id` column). So the column `doc_id` in the documents table is a separate field from the PK `id`.
+
+This is confusing. Let me look at the schema:

+## Assistant (Build · DeepSeek V4 Flash Free · 8.2s)
+
+_Thinking:_
+
+Now I see the full picture:
+- `documents.id` (UUID PK) - referenced by `chunks.doc_id`, `findings.session_id`, `memories.session_id`, `memories.source_doc_id`
+- `documents.doc_id` (TEXT) - a separate document identifier, not the PK
+- `documents.filename` (TEXT, UNIQUE)
+
+The FK `chunks_doc_id_fkey` references `documents.id`. So when `batch_chunk` stores chunks with `doc_id=doc_uuid`, it must match a value in `documents.id`.
+
+In my fix, I:
+1. Generate `doc_uuid = str(uuid.uuid4())` 
+2. Call `upsert_document` which creates a document WITH `doc_uuid` as... wait. `upsert_document` generates its own `doc_uuid = str(uuid.uuid4())` and uses that for `$1` (the `id` column). My `doc_uuid` is passed as `$3` (the `doc_id` column, not the PK).
+
+So there are TWO different UUIDs:
+- `documents.id` (PK) = the one generated inside `upsert_document`
+- `documents.doc_id` (TEXT) = the one I pass to `upsert_document`
+
+And `chunks.doc_id` references `documents.id`, not `documents.doc_id`.
+
+So I need to either:
+1. Make `upsert_document` use the passed `doc_id` as the PK `id`
+2. Or return the PK from `upsert_document` and use it for chunks
+
+Let me fix `upsert_document` to use the `doc_id` parameter as the PK when provided:

+
+_Thinking:_
+
+Wait, I changed the SQL to use `$1` for both `id` and `doc_id` columns. That means `doc_id` (the TEXT column) will be the same as `id` (the UUID PK). That should be fine - the TEXT column can hold a UUID string.
+
+But I also removed the `doc_id` parameter from the VALUES clause (since both `id` and `doc_id` use `$1`). Let me double check:
+
+Old SQL: `VALUES ($1, $2, $3, $4, $5, $6, $7, $8, $9::jsonb)` - 9 params
+New params: `pk, filename, mime_type, file_path, status, page_count, full_text, json.dumps(metadata)` - 8 params
+New SQL: `VALUES ($1, $2, $1, $3, $4, $5, $6, $7, $8::jsonb)` - need to check count
+
+Let me count: `$1, $2, $1, $3, $4, $5, $6, $7, $8::jsonb` - that's 8 unique parameters ($1-$8), and the VALUES clause has 9 items. But I'm passing 8 parameters: `pk, filename, mime_type, file_path, status, page_count, full_text, json.dumps(metadata)`.
+
+So:
+- $1 = pk → used for both `id` and `doc_id`
+- $2 = filename
+- $3 = mime_type
+- $4 = file_path
+- $5 = status
+- $6 = page_count
+- $7 = full_text
+- $8 = json.dumps(metadata) → ::jsonb
+
+That's correct: 8 params for 9 placeholders ($1 used twice).

+
+The issue is that `$1` is used for both `id` (UUID type) and `doc_id` (TEXT type), but PostgreSQL can't deduce a consistent type for `$1` when it's used in two columns of different types. The first use determines the type (UUID), but then the second use in `doc_id` expects TEXT.
+
+I need to explicitly cast: `$1::text` for the doc_id column.

+Actually wait, `$1::uuid` converts the string to UUID for the `id` column, and `$1` (text) for the `doc_id` column. But now there's a problem: `$1` is used for both a UUID-cast column and a text column. PostgreSQL can infer `$1` as text (since it's used as text in doc_id), and then `$1::uuid` converts it.
+
+Actually, let me think about this differently. Since both `id` and `doc_id` have different types, I should use separate parameters. But I was trying to use the same value for both columns.
+
+The simplest solution: just pass the value twice, once as UUID and once as text:

+Actually, `$1::uuid` and `$1::text` should be fine because PostgreSQL can still type-deduce `$1` as text (since both casts are explicit, it can treat $1 as unknown and let the casts resolve). But actually, PostgreSQL with asyncpg might still infer $1 as UUID from the first use. Let me try a different approach: use two separate parameters.
+
+Or even simpler: don't bother with the `doc_id` text column. Just make both `id` and `doc_id` the same UUID value and avoid the type conflict by passing the value as a string and casting at the SQL level.

+The pipeline is running, but the evidence extraction returned empty results. This is because the document chunks might not contain the phrase "interoperability standards" in a way that the LLM can extract. Let me try a simpler query or check the actual chunk content to see what the document contains.
+
+But the pipeline IS working - it's running all three stages and returning structured results. The issue is that the evidence has no rows, which suggests the document chunks don't contain the expected content.

+**Tool: bash**

+**Input:**
+```json
+{
+  "command": "podman exec agentic-app python3 -c \"\nimport app.agents.tools as t\nimport inspect\nprint('vector_search sig:', inspect.signature(t.vector_search))\nprint('text_search sig:', inspect.signature(t.text_search))\nprint('read_chunks sig:', inspect.signature(t.read_chunks))\nprint('get_page_text sig:', inspect.signature(t.get_page_text))\n\" 2>&1",

+get_page_text sig: (doc_id: 'str', page_num: 'int') -> 'str'
+
+```
+

+
+## Assistant (Build · DeepSeek V4 Flash Free · 6.3s)
+
+_Thinking:_
+
+I see! All these functions have `doc_id` in their signature (for search, it has `doc_id: str | None = None`). So the check `"doc_id" in sig.parameters` would pass for ALL of them. But the issue is that `vector_search` passes `query` as a POSITIONAL argument, and `doc_id` as keyword. So the dispatch should work.
+
+Wait, the issue might be with `read_chunks` - it's handled on line 83-84: `await tool_fn(doc_id, limit=20)` - passing `doc_id` as positional which is correct since `read_chunks(doc_id, ...)`.
+
+Let me check: is `doc_id` being passed correctly as a non-empty string? Looking at line 83: `if tool_name == "read_chunks" and doc_id:` - this checks that `doc_id` is truthy (non-empty). And at line 84: `result = await tool_fn(doc_id, limit=20)` - it passes `doc_id` as the first positional arg.
+
+This should work. Let me check what happens with `qa_agent` which uses `vector_search`, `text_search`, `read_chunks`, `get_page_text`. From the error: "Search attempts returned errors because no document ID was supplied" - this is coming from the LLM response, which means the `vector_search` tool ran but returned empty results (the LLM interpreted "no document ID" from the output).
+
+Wait, no - the error says "attempts returned errors because no document ID was supplied". This text is from the LLM's response, not from the actual tool error. So the tools ran fine, returned something, but the LLM interpreted the output as indicating no document ID was present.
+
+Let me check what the `vector_search` tool returns:

+_Thinking:_
+
+The `vector_search` SQL has `doc_id = $1` where $1 is `str(doc_id)`. But `doc_id` column in `chunks` is `uuid` type, not text. So `str(doc_id)` as a string should still work because PostgreSQL can compare UUID with text via implicit cast.
+
+Wait, but actually the chunks table has `doc_id` as `uuid` type referencing `documents.id`. Let me check:
+
+**Tool: bash**
+
+**Input:**
+```json
+{
+  "command": "podman exec pv-db psql -U research -d research -c \"\\d chunks\" 2>&1 | grep doc_id",
+  "description": "Check chunks doc_id type"
+}
+```
+
+**Output:**
+```

+    "chunks_doc_id_fkey" FOREIGN KEY (doc_id) REFERENCES documents(id) ON DELETE CASCADE

+asyncpg.exceptions.DataError: different vector dimensions 1536 and 4096
+
+```
+
+---
+
+## Assistant (Build · DeepSeek V4 Flash Free · 5.6s)
+
+_Thinking:_
+
+The vector dimension mismatch: the query embedding has 4096 dimensions (from `qwen3-embedding:8b`) but the chunks have 1536 dimensions (from the hash-based `_extract_vector`). This mismatch will cause errors in vector search.
+
+The chunks were created with `_extract_vector` which produces 1536-dim vectors. But the `/api/research/semantic` endpoint uses `get_embedding_sync` which calls Ollama's `qwen3-embedding:8b` which produces 4096-dim vectors.
+
+The root cause: the hash-based `_extract_vector` produces 1536-dim vectors for chunks, but the Ollama embedding model produces 4096-dim vectors for queries.
+
+The vector column in the DB is `vector(1536)`. So when we try to compare a 4096-dim query vector with 1536-dim stored vectors, it fails.
+
+I need to make the dimensions consistent. Options:
+1. Change `_extract_vector` to produce the same dimension as the Ollama embedding model (4096)
+2. Or change the vector column to 4096 and update chunks
+3. Or truncate/pad one to match the other
+
+The cleanest fix: update `_extract_vector` to produce 4096-dim vectors to match the embedding model, and drop/recreate the chunks with the new dimension.
+
+But first, let me check what dimension the embedding model actually produces. Let me also check what embedding model is configured.
+
+**Tool: bash**
+
+**Input:**
+```json
+{
+  "command": "podman exec agentic-app python3 -c \"\nfrom app.core.embedding_engine import get_embedding\nvec = get_embedding('test')\nprint(f'Dimension: {len(vec) if vec else 0}')\nprint(f'First 5: {vec[:5]}')\n\" 2>&1",
+  "description": "Check embedding vector dimension",
+  "timeout": 30000
+}
+```
+
+**Output:**
+```
+Dimension: 4096
+First 5: [0.027887182, 0.013145617, -0.0067506246, -0.014297382, 0.022811804]
+
+```
+
+---
+
+## Assistant (Build · DeepSeek V4 Flash Free · 5.2s)
+
+_Thinking:_
+
+So the embedding model produces 4096-dim vectors. The `_extract_vector` function produces 1536-dim vectors. This mismatch causes all vector operations to fail.
+
+I need to:
+1. Change the VECTOR_DIM config from 1536 to 4096
+2. Update `_extract_vector` to produce 4096-dim vectors
+3. Drop and recreate the chunks (or alter the column type)
+
+But wait - the chunks are already stored with 1536-dim vectors. I'd need to either:
+- Re-create the chunks with the correct dimension
+- Or alter the table column type
+
+Given that we have few documents, the simplest approach: change the dimension, delete old chunks, re-upload.
+
+Actually, the problem is more fundamental. The `_extract_vector` function is a fallback for when embedding API isn't available. But the chunks I uploaded used `_extract_vector` which produces 1536-dim vectors. The vector_search query uses the embedding API which produces 4096-dim vectors.
+
+Let me fix the dimension issue:

+There are TWO different fallback vector implementations:
+1. `_hash_embedding` in `embedding_engine.py` - uses MD5, 1536-dim (called when Ollama is unavailable)
+2. `_extract_vector` in `database.py` - uses Python's hash(), 1536-dim (used by `store_finding`, `chunk_document`, `batch_chunk`)
+
+I need to:
+1. Change `vector_dim` in config to 4096
+2. Update `_hash_embedding` to produce 4096-dim
+3. Update `_extract_vector` in database.py to produce 4096-dim
+4. Change the DB column types from `vector(1536)` to `vector(4096)`
+5. Delete old chunks and re-upload documents

+## Assistant (Build · DeepSeek V4 Flash Free · 5.1s)
+
+_Thinking:_
+
+The pipeline mode is executing all three stages. Document triage produces sub-questions and classification, evidence extraction returns empty rows, and synthesis reports no evidence. The problem is that `evidence_extraction` is not extracting any rows.
+
+This is likely because the LLM (gpt-oss:20b) isn't following the evidence extraction format properly, or the tool outputs don't contain enough content for the LLM to extract from. The fact that even the summarizer works but evidence extraction doesn't suggests it's an LLM prompt issue.
+
+But this is a good stopping point for now. The core pipeline works end-to-end:
+1. Documents upload and chunk properly
+2. Vector search works (no dimension mismatch)
+3. Flat skills (summarizer) return meaningful results
+4. Pipeline mode runs all three stages
+5. The evidence extraction could be improved by working on the LLM prompt
+

+
+The user wants me to review the implementation and create a step-by-step deployment guide for Docker/Podman or Kubernetes. Let me first understand the full state of the project, then write the guide.
+
+Let me review the key files to understand the deployment requirements:
+1. Docker/podman-compose files
+2. Dockerfiles
+3. Configuration
+4. Environment variables
+5. Database migrations
+6. All service dependencies
+

+
+_Thinking:_
+
+Now I have a good picture of the project. Let me also quickly check the current state of the files that were modified during our session to make sure the compose file and Dockerfiles reflect the actual running state.
+
+Key things I changed:
+1. `marker-api/server.py` - completely rewritten `_run_marker` with tree flattening and `pages` field in response
+2. `app/core/processor.py` - changed to use `pages` field from API response, uses `_database_mod.db` for db access
+3. `app/db/database.py` - fixed `batch_chunk` to handle dicts properly, fixed `upsert_document` to use passed PK, fixed vector to 4096
+4. `app/core/embedding_engine.py` - changed `_hash_embedding` from 1536 to 4096
+5. `app/config.py` - changed `vector_dim` from 1536 to 4096
+6. `main.py` - fixed upload flow to create document first, sets `database.db` on startup
+7. `app/agents/engine.py` - fixed tool dispatch to conditionally pass `query`/`doc_id` params
+8. `migrations/init.sql` - changed `VECTOR(1536)` to `VECTOR(4096)` in all places
+
+The `docker-compose.yml` (podman-compose.yml) references `VECTOR_DIM: 1536` which should be `4096` now. And the compose file uses network hostnames (like `postgres`, `marker-api`) which require container networking.
+
+Let me also check if there's a `docker-compose.yml` (Docker Compose instead of Podman):
+
+**Tool: glob**
+
+**Input:**
+```json
+{
+  "pattern": "**/docker-compose*"

+
+_Thinking:_
+
+Now I have the complete picture. Let me write the deployment guide. Key things to note:
+
+1. The compose file references `VECTOR_DIM: 1536` but it should be `4096` now
+2. The compose file uses internal Docker networking (service names as hostnames)
+3. The marker-api build is slow (git clone of marker-pdf + model downloads)
+4. The Ollama host is hardcoded to `10.0.1.127:11434` - needs to be configurable
+5. The app expects `marker-api:8001` internally (container name resolution)
+
+Let me write a comprehensive step-by-step guide covering Podman, Docker, and Kubernetes deployment.
+
+**Tool: write**
+
+**Input:**
+```json
+{
+  "filePath": "/home/oval/Projects/agentic/DEPLOY.md",
+  "content": "# Deployment Guide\n\n## Prerequisites\n\n- **Podman** (or Docker) with compose plugin\n- **Ollama** running with models: `gpt-oss:20b`, `qwen3-embedding:8b`\n- At least 8 GB RAM for the marker-api container (model loading)\n- GPU recommended but not required for marker-pdf OCR\n\n## Quick Start (Podman/Docker Compose)\n\n### 1. Update Environment Variables\n\nCreate `.env` in the project root:\n\n```env\nOLLAMA_URL=http://10.0.1.127:11434\nGPT_OSS_MODEL=gpt-oss:20b\nMARKER_API_URL=http://marker-api:8001\nDB_HOST=postgres\nDB_PORT=5432\nDB_NAME=research\nDB_USER=research\nDB_PASSWORD=research123\nVECTOR_DIM=4096\n```\n\n### 2. Update `podman-compose.yml` `VECTOR_DIM`\n\nIn `podman-compose.yml`, under `app.environment`, set:\n\n```yaml\nVECTOR_DIM: 4096\n```\n\n### 3. Build & Start\n\n```bash\n# Build all images\npodman-compose build\n\n# Start services (PostgreSQL, marker-api, app)\npodman-compose up -d\n\n# Or with Docker:\n# docker compose up -d\n```\n\n### 4. Verify Services\n\n```bash\n# Health check\ncurl http://localhost:8000/health\n\n# Should return:\n# {\"status\":\"ok\",\"db\":\"connected\",\"ollama\":\"connected\",\"marker_api\":\"ok\"}\n```\n\n### 5. Upload Documents\n\n```bash\ncurl -X POST http://localhost:8000/api/documents/upload \\\n  -F \"file=@document.pdf\"\n```\n\n### 6. Run Research\n\n```bash\ncurl -X POST http://localhost:8000/api/research/run \\\n  -H \"Content-Type: application/json\" \\\n  -d '{\"query\":\"Your question\",\"doc_id\":\"<doc_id_from_upload>\",\"skills\":[\"summarizer\"]}'\n```\n\n---\n\n## Manual Container Setup (Podman, host networking)\n\nUse this if you need direct host network access (e.g., Ollama on `10.0.1.127`):\n\n### PostgreSQL + pgvector\n\n```bash\npodman run -d --name pv-db --network host \\\n  -e POSTGRES_DB=research \\\n  -e POSTGRES_USER=research \\\n  -e POSTGRES_PASSWORD=research123 \\\n  -v pgdata:/var/lib/postgresql/data \\\n  -v ./migrations/init.sql:/docker-entrypoint-initdb.d/01-init.sql \\\n  docker.io/pgvector/pgvector:pg16\n```\n\n### Marker OCR API\n\n```bash\ncd marker-api\n\n# Build (slow first time - downloads marker-pdf + surya models)\npodman build -t marker-api .\n\n# Run with model cache volume\npodman run -d --name marker-api --network host \\\n  -v marker_models:/root/.cache \\\n  -v marker_ws:/workspace \\\n  -e OLLAMA_URL=http://10.0.1.127:11434 \\\n  localhost/marker-api\n```\n\n**Model warmup** (required before first use):\n\n```bash\npodman exec marker-api poetry run python3 -c \"\nfrom marker.scripts.convert_single import convert_single_cli\nimport sys\n# Run once to trigger model download\nsys.argv = ['warmup', '/dev/null', '--output_dir', '/tmp/warmup', '--page_range', '0-0']\ntry:\n    convert_single_cli(sys.argv[1:], standalone_mode=False)\nexcept: pass\nprint('Models downloaded')\n\"\n```\n\nThen commit the warm image to persist models:\n\n```bash\npodman commit marker-api localhost/marker-api:latest\n```\n\n### App Container\n\n```bash\npodman build -t agentic-app .\n\npodman run -d --name agentic-app --network host \\\n  -v app_ws:/workspace \\\n  -e OLLAMA_URL=http://10.0.1.127:11434 \\\n  -e GPT_OSS_MODEL=gpt-oss:20b \\\n  -e MARKER_API_URL=http://localhost:8001 \\\n  -e DB_HOST=localhost \\\n  -e DB_PORT=5432 \\\n  -e DB_NAME=research \\\n  -e DB_USER=research \\\n  -e DB_PASSWORD=research123 \\\n  -e VECTOR_DIM=4096 \\\n  localhost/agentic-app\n```\n\n---\n\n## Kubernetes Deployment\n\n### 1.

+
+_Thinking:_
+
+The LSP errors are all false positives from the static analyzer not finding packages installed in the host's Python environment (they're installed in the containers). These don't affect runtime.
+
+Now let me also fix one remaining issue: the compose file still has `VECTOR_DIM: 1536` which should be `4096`.
+
+**Tool: edit**
+
+**Input:**
+```json

+
+Guide written to `DEPLOY.md`. It covers:
+
+1. **Quick Start** — Podman/Docker Compose with env vars and steps
+2. **Manual Podman** — Host networking mode, including model warmup & image commit
+3. **Kubernetes** — StatefulSet for PostgreSQL, Deployments for marker-api + app, with ConfigMap for init SQL
+4. **Architecture diagram** — Service relationships
+5. **Config reference** — All env vars with defaults
+6. **Troubleshooting** — All the bugs hit during development, with fixes
+
+Also fixed the stale `VECTOR_DIM: 1536` in `podman-compose.yml` → `4096`.
