+# Docker
+
+```bash
+docker compose up -d --build
+```
+
+Root `.env` is a **pointer only** (`COMPOSE_ENV_FILES=./backend/.env`) so Compose
+interpolates `${FRONTEND_PORT}`, `${BACKEND_PORT}`, … from **`backend/.env`**.
+All secrets and app config live in `backend/.env` (also injected into containers
+via `env_file`).
+
+## How the browser reaches the API
+
+| Surface | URL |
+|---|---|
+| SPA | http://127.0.0.1:5173 |
+| API (host) | http://127.0.0.1:8000 |
+
+nginx on `:5173` also proxies API paths to `backend-api` (same-origin when
+`VITE_API_BASE` is empty).
+
+In `backend/.env`:
+
+```env
+FRONTEND_PORT=5173
+BACKEND_PORT=8000
+FRONTEND_URL=http://127.0.0.1:5173
+```
+
+## Local (host Postgres)
+
+```env
+PROD_ENV=false
+DB_USERNAME=...
+DB_PASSWORD=...
+DB_HOST=localhost
+DB_PORT=5432
+DB_NAME=hrms
+DB_SSLMODE=
+FRONTEND_PORT=5173
+BACKEND_PORT=8000
+FRONTEND_URL=http://127.0.0.1:5173
+```
+
+Containers set `IN_DOCKER=1`. With `PROD_ENV=false`, `db_setup` rewrites
+`localhost` / `127.0.0.1` → `host.docker.internal` for the connection URL only
+(SSL off unless `DB_SSLMODE` is set).
+
+```bash
+cp backend/.env.example backend/.env  # set JWT, OpenAI, DB_*, PROD_ENV=false
+docker compose up -d --build
+```
+
+| Service | Host access |
+|---|---|
+| `frontend` | `${FRONTEND_PORT:-5173}` |
+| `backend-api` | `${BACKEND_PORT:-8000}` |
+| `ats-engine` / `redis` | Compose network (optional host-ports overlay) |
+| `postgres` | not started (optional `--profile postgres`) |
+
+Optional loopback publishes for ATS / Redis:
+
+```bash
+docker compose -f docker-compose.yml -f docker-compose.host-ports.yml up -d
+```
+
+Optional live-reload / bind mounts:
+
+```bash
+docker compose -f docker-compose.yml -f docker-compose.dev.yml up -d --build
+```
+
+Optional Compose Postgres (empty volume — not host data):
+
+```bash
+docker compose --profile postgres up -d postgres
+# set DB_HOST=postgres in backend/.env, then recreate backend services
+```
+
+## Production (RDS)
+
+In `backend/.env`, set `PROD_ENV=true` and point plain `DB_*` at RDS. Blank
+`DB_SSLMODE` → SSL `require` (or set `DB_SSLMODE=require` explicitly).
+
+```bash
+docker compose up -d --build
+docker compose ps
+```
+
+First boot against RDS can take a few minutes while Alembic applies drift; the
+API healthcheck `start_period` is 180s so Compose does not mark it unhealthy too early.
+
+### Schema / migrations (automatic)
+
+On every `backend-api` start:
+
+1. Fresh empty Postgres → create all tables from models and stamp a marker.
+2. Otherwise → `alembic upgrade head` if any revision files exist in the image.
+3. If `DB_AUTOGENERATE=true` → detect ORM drift and apply DDL **in-memory**.
+4. Apply any pending `backend/migrations/manual/*.sql`.
+
+Toggle in `backend/.env`: `DB_AUTO_MIGRATE` / `DB_AUTOGENERATE`.
+
+### Verify
+
+```bash
+docker compose config
+curl -sf http://127.0.0.1:5173/health
+curl -sf http://127.0.0.1:8000/health
+docker compose logs -f backend-api
+```
+
+### Secrets
+
+- Never bake `backend/.env` into images.
+- Root `.env` must stay a pointer (`COMPOSE_ENV_FILES`) — no passwords there.
+- Do not put `DB_HOST` under Compose `environment:` (empty override blanks RDS).
+
+## Useful commands
+
+```bash
+docker compose logs -f backend-api
+docker compose restart backend-api
+docker compose down
+docker compose down -v
+```

+Optional `--reload` / bind mounts: add `-f docker-compose.dev.yml`. See `DOCKER.md`.
 
-The backend image builds from the **repo root**, not `./backend`: `job/candidate`
-imports the scoring engine from `app/`, and `inbox.plugins` pulls that in transitively,
-so a `./backend` context produces workers that die on `No module named 'app'`.
-
-### The shared file mount
-
-`backend/inbox/decoded_attachments/` on the host is bind-mounted into every container
-that touches a CV — `backend-api`, `taskiq-worker`, `taskiq-cv-worker` — at the
-identical path `/app/inbox/decoded_attachments`. A PDF written by the API is the same
-file the worker opens, and absolute paths stored in the database resolve in either
-direction (`inbox.plugins.resolve_attachment_path` also falls back to
-basename-under-that-folder for rows written by a host process). Point it elsewhere with
-`ATTACHMENTS_DIR=/some/host/path`.
-
-### Talking to the host
-
-`backend/.env` is written for host processes, so compose overrides the three values a
-container needs: `DB_HOST=host.docker.internal` (the local Postgres),
-`EMAIL_URL=http://host.docker.internal:5000` (the email service on the host), and
-`REDIS_URL=redis://redis:6379/0`. The host Postgres must accept connections from the
-Docker bridge — `listen_addresses = '*'` plus a `pg_hba.conf` entry for `172.16.0.0/12`.
-
-> **Stop the host `uvicorn` and `npm run dev` first.** Windows lets a host process bind
-> `127.0.0.1:8000` while Docker binds `0.0.0.0:8000`, and `localhost` resolves to `::1`
-> first — so both listen and requests silently reach whichever won. Same for 5173. Use
-> `BACKEND_PORT` / `FRONTEND_PORT` / `ATS_PORT` if both must run.
-
-`VITE_API_BASE` is inlined into the bundle at **build** time (default
-`http://localhost:8000`), so changing the API origin means rebuilding the frontend
-image, not restarting the container.
-
-### The Postgres profile
-
-The image is defined alongside everything else, but the `postgres` profile keeps it out
-of `docker compose build` and `docker compose up` — bringing it up is always explicit:
-
-```bash
-docker compose --profile postgres build postgres
-docker compose --profile postgres up -d postgres   # host port 5433; 5432 is the host server's
-```
-
-Pointing the app at it is a second, deliberate step: set `DB_HOST=postgres` (the only
-value that changes — services reach it on 5432 over the compose network) and recreate
-the services. Its volume starts empty, so Alembic rebuilds the schema on first boot; it
-does not share the host server's data.
-
-### Live-code overlay
-
-[docker-compose.dev.yml](docker-compose.dev.yml) is not a second stack — it defines no
-services or images, it only adds source bind mounts and `--reload` to the ones above:
-
-```bash
-docker compose -f docker-compose.yml -f docker-compose.dev.yml up
-```
-
-### 4. First run
+### First run
 
 1. Sign up / log in (`/auth/login`) — the user needs a role carrying
    `candidates.create` + `candidates.view` (RBAC screen or seed a role).

+closed tab loses nothing. Profiles are deduped per job by normalized LinkedIn URL
+(`uq_talent_profiles_job_url`); re-runs refresh fields but never resurrect a dismissed
+(`is_deleted`) profile. The raw dataset item is kept verbatim in `talent_profiles.raw`
+because item shapes vary per actor. A run is refused with 409 while another is active for
+the same job, and `APIFY_MAX_COST_USD` is passed as `maxTotalChargeUsd` so Apify enforces
+the spend ceiling server-side. Each run's actual charge (`usageTotalUsd`) is folded into
+`talent_runs.cost_usd` when it settles (accumulating across the broadened re-run ladder),
+and `GET /talent/account` serves the Find Talent header chips: live balance and
+cycle spend from Apify's `/users/me/limits` (degrading to nulls when Apify is
+unreachable) plus the observed $/profile over all recorded runs.

+**Ranking on job creation is fire-and-forget.** `JobPost._rank_cv_bank` swallows broker
+errors: the job post is already committed, and Redis being down must not turn a successful

+enqueue degrades to a slower page rather than a wrong one.
+
+---
+
+## The CV Bank
+
+Two populations behind one screen and one endpoint (`GET /candidate/cv-bank/fetch`):
+
+| Source | Where it lives | How it got there |
+|---|---|---|
+| `speculative` | `manual_upload_candidate` with `apply_via='cv_bank'`, `job_post_id IS NULL` | `POST /candidate/cv-bank/upload` — a CV with no job |
+| `silver_medalist` | `inbox_messages` + `ats_results`, read live | Applied, scored at or above `CV_BANK_SILVER_FLOOR`, `application_status='REJECTED'` |
+
+Silver medalists are a **union query, not a copy**. The application rows keep being the
+source of truth, so there is no sync to get wrong. Only `REJECTED` qualifies — `CLOSED` is
+the ingest default for unprocessed mail, and treating it as a rejection would tip the whole
+unread inbox into the bank.
+
+**Two-tier matching.** `matching/ranking.py::rank_profile` is deterministic keyword overlap,
+free, and runs over the entire bank whenever a job opens. The real ATS score costs money and
+runs only from `POST /candidate/cv-bank/score`, per row, on the ones a recruiter picks. The
+UI draws them differently on purpose — a rank is not an assessment. The same function backs
+Find Talent (`talent/plugins.py` re-exports it as `relevance_score`) so the two cannot drift.
+
+**Extraction is what makes the bank usable.** `run_employment_agent` returns skills, years,
+title, company, education and phone; before migration 029 the bank stored only `full_text`
+and could not be searched or ranked at all.
+
+### Retention and deletion
+
+A banked CV is personal data held with no job to justify it, so it is held for a stated
+period rather than indefinitely.
+
+- `bank_expires_at` is stamped **at upload** from `CV_BANK_RETENTION_MONTHS` (default 24).
+  Stamping on the row rather than computing on read means changing the setting later cannot
+  silently extend CVs already taken in.
+- Expired rows are excluded from `list_bank_for_ranking`, so an expired CV is never put in
+  front of a recruiter.
+- `cvbank.sweep_expired` runs nightly and **flags, never deletes.** A misconfigured window
+  would otherwise destroy the entire bank on one cron tick, and a resume someone sent us is
+  not something to drop on a timer with no record. Set
+  `CV_BANK_RETENTION_NOTIFY_EMAIL` to have the sweep raise an in-app notification.
+- Deletion is a human action: `DELETE /candidate/cv-bank/delete` hard-deletes the row and
+  its bytes (`cv_bank_files` cascades) and removes the S3 object. It refuses rows that
+  already have a `job_post_id` — those are applications, not bank entries.

+- Do not return province, country, street, house number, neighborhood, cantonment, or text inside parentheses.

+candidate_name (its own key — a string or the no-name sentinel):
+- The candidate's full name exactly as written on the resume header / contact block.
+- Do not invent a name from the email local-part, file name, or LinkedIn slug.
+- If none is stated, return exactly: {NO_NAME}
+
+skills (its own key — a JSON array of strings):
+- List the candidate's concrete technical and professional skills: technologies, tools, languages, platforms, and named methodologies.
+- Write each skill using the resume's own spelling. Every skill you return MUST appear in the resume text.
+- Do not infer a skill from a job title, an employer, or a degree. "Backend Engineer" is not evidence of "Python".
+- One skill per entry. Do not return sentences, responsibilities, or soft-skill filler like "team player" or "hard working".
+- At most 30 entries, most relevant first. If the resume lists none, return an empty array [].
+
+years_experience (its own key — an integer or null):
+- If the resume states a total (for example "6 years of experience"), use that stated number.
+- Otherwise compute whole years only from employment dates explicitly written in the resume.
+- Never infer it from seniority words, education dates, or the number of jobs listed.
+- Must be between 0 and 60. If the resume supports neither a stated total nor explicit dates, return null.

+- Return the candidate's own public LinkedIn profile URL (linkedin.com/in/..., /pub/..., /mwlite/in/..., or lnkd.in/...).
+- Reconstruct the URL if PDF extraction wrapped or spaced it (e.g. "linkedin.com/in/\\njane-doe" or "linkedin . com / in / jane-doe").
+- Clickable icon links may appear as bare URLs on their own lines at the end of the text; use those.
+- Copy the full slug. Never drop a trailing path segment.
+- Do not return a company page (linkedin.com/company/...), a search URL, or a URL that is not LinkedIn.
+- Do not invent a profile. If none is mentioned, return exactly: {NO_LINKEDIN}
+- Never guess a slug or construct linkedin.com/in/<name> from the candidate's name. The stored value will be null when this sentinel is returned.

+city (its own key — OPTIONAL. A missing city must not fail the candidate):
+{CITY_POLICY}
+- Extract city ONLY from the candidate's contact / location / address header (the block with name, phone, email, LinkedIn, "Address", "Location", "based in", "currently living in").
+- Do NOT extract city from Work Experience. A job that lists Karachi, UAE, USA, or any other city is the employer's location, not proof the candidate lives there.
+- If the contact/location section does not name a city, return exactly: {NO_CITY}. Leave it blank rather than guessing from jobs, education, or nationality.

+Country → cities (map messy locality to exactly one city from this list; return the city, never the country):

+
+phone (its own key — extract this separately; copy EVERY digit):
+- Return the candidate's own mobile / phone exactly as written, including country code when present.
+- Pakistani mobiles are 11 digits local (03XX-XXXXXXX / 03XX XXXXXXX) or +92 3XX XXXXXXX (12 digits with country code). Copy the last group in full — never stop after 7 or 8 digits.
+- If PDF extraction wrapped the number across lines (e.g. "0321-5551\\n234"), join the groups into one complete number.
+- Spaces, hyphens, parentheses, en-dashes, bullets, and non-breaking spaces are allowed; do not delete trailing digits to "clean" the value.
+- A Phone / Mobile / Cell / WhatsApp / Tel label may sit on the line above the digits — still copy the number.
+- 03XX-XXXXXXX and +92 3XX XXXXXXX are the same number; return the form written on the resume.
+- Do not invent a number. If none is mentioned, return exactly: {NO_PHONE}

+Examples of CORRECT values (copy this completeness; these are format samples, not this candidate):
+
+Example 1 — local 11-digit PK mobile, full LinkedIn:
+Resume: "Ali Khan | Karachi | 0321-5551234 | https://www.linkedin.com/in/ali-khan | Acme | BS CS | Engineer | Skills: Python, Django, PostgreSQL | 6 years of experience"
+JSON:
+{{

+  "education": "BS CS",
+  "current_title": "Engineer",
+  "linkedin_url": "https://www.linkedin.com/in/ali-khan",
+  "phone": "0321-5551234",
+  "city": "Karachi",
+  "skills": ["Python", "Django", "PostgreSQL"],
+  "years_experience": 6
+}}
+
+Example 2 — +92 with spaces; every digit kept:
+Resume: "Phone: +92 333 123 4567"
+JSON phone must be "+92 333 123 4567" (12 digits after stripping separators: 923331234567). Not "+92 333 123" and not "+92 333 1234".
+
+Example 3 — PDF wrapped the last three digits onto the next line:
+Resume: "Mobile: 0300-1234\\n567"
+JSON phone must be "0300-1234567" (11 digits). Returning "0300-1234" (last three missing) is wrong.
+
+Example 4 — 4-3-4 grouping:
+Resume: "Cell: 0301 234 5678"
+JSON phone must be "0301 234 5678". Not "0301 234".
+
+Example 5 — wrapped LinkedIn slug:
+Resume: "linkedin.com/in/\\njane-doe-123"
+JSON linkedin_url must be "https://www.linkedin.com/in/jane-doe-123". Not ".../jane-doe".
+
+Example 6 — no stated total and no dates:
+Resume: "Senior Architect. Led large teams."
+JSON years_experience must be null. "Senior" is not a duration.
+
+Example 7 — dates only:
+Resume: "Acme, Jan 2018 - Jan 2024, Engineer"
+JSON years_experience must be 6, and skills must be [] because none are listed.
+
+Example 8 — work-experience cities are NOT residence:
+Resume: "Ali Khan | 0321-5551234\\nExperience: Acme, Karachi, 2019-2021; Globex, UAE, 2022-2024; Contoso, USA, 2024-present"
+JSON city must be exactly: {NO_CITY}. Do not return Karachi, UAE, USA, or any other job-site city.
+
+Example 9 — contact/location city is residence:
+Resume: "Ali Khan | Location: Lahore | 0321-5551234\\nExperience: Acme, Karachi, Engineer"
+JSON city must be "Lahore". Not "Karachi".
+
+Example 10 — neighborhood / cantonment is not the city:
+Resume: "Ali Khan | Karachi(Malir) | 0321-5551234"
+JSON city must be "Karachi". Not "Karachi(Malir)" and not "Malir".
+
+Example 11 — DHA / sector / cantonment still collapse to the city:
+Resume: "Address: DHA Karachi" → "Karachi". "Lahore Cantt" → "Lahore". "F-10 Islamabad" → "Islamabad". "Wah Cantt" → "Wah". "London(Westminster)" → "London".
+
+Example 12 — do not glue two place fragments:
+Resume: "Address: Karachi(Malir) Wah Cantt"
+JSON city must be "Karachi" (one city). Not "Karachi(Malir) Wah Cantt" and not "Wah Cantt".
