Insert a configurable in-cluster OCR rung into the escalation ladder (Deck #353):
a tier2-eligible doc is OCR'd on the on-demand burst GPU before falling through to
paid upstream OCR. The in-cluster backend is reached ONLY via the embedding gateway
(model prefix routes to the GPU over the tailnet) and is a config value (default
surya/surya-ocr-2, swappable to e.g. lightonocr) — never hard-coded.
Ladder: fast -> structured -> ocr-incluster -> ocr-upstream
(queues ingest-ocr-incluster / ingest-ocr-upstream).
- escalation.py: 4-tier ladder; in-cluster flag folded into the dead-letter signature.
- ocr.py: OcrProcessor(name, tier, model_setting, gateway_only); build_ocr_backend(
..., model=, gateway_only=) — gateway_only forces the gateway backend (never the
direct Mistral fallback), disabling the tier with a warning if no gateway URL.
- registry.py: per-rung enable map; scanned docs target minimum="ocr-incluster";
inline path runs the cheapest available OCR rung.
- procrastinate.py: two OCR queues; legacy ingest-ocr kept as a drain target.
- config.py: DOCUMENT_OCR_INCLUSTER_ENABLED (off) + DOCUMENT_OCR_INCLUSTER_MODEL.
- __init__.py: register the two OCR instances; vector/processor.py: pages_ocr
metered for the upstream (paid) rung only; cli.py: new --tier choices + legacy drain.
- metrics.py: zero the legacy ingest-ocr queue gauge during rollout.
- tests: migrated to the split ladder + new tests (gateway-only forcing, per-tier
model incl. lightonocr override, no-hard-coded-surya guard). 1792 pass; ruff + ty green.

Add DOCUMENT_OCR_MODE=sync|batch (default sync). In batch mode the tier-3 OCR
processor submits documents to the embedding gateway's async Batch OCR routes
(POST /v1/ocr/batch + GET /v1/ocr/batch/{job_id}, astrolabe-cloud-website#372)
for ~50% cheaper large-corpus backfill. The direct Mistral OCR path is left
untouched. Tracked on Deck #332.
Batch jobs run minutes-hours, so the OCR tier cannot block (the procrastinate
worker reclaims jobs in `doing` after INGEST_STALLED_JOB_SECONDS). Instead it
submits, records the gateway job id in a new per-tenant `batch_ocr_jobs` table
(procrastinate args are immutable across retries), and raises a BatchPending
signal that TieredEscalationStrategy turns into a same-queue deferred re-poll —
releasing the worker slot between polls. On completion the per-page markdown is
indexed like the sync path; a failure or a job past
DOCUMENT_OCR_BATCH_MAX_WAIT_SECONDS marks the document parse-failed.
Batch is opt-in and gateway-only: with the direct mistral backend, no gateway
URL, or the inline/memory pipeline (which can't defer), it falls back to sync.
One batch job per document (coalescing N docs/job is a follow-up).
- embedding/gateway_batch_client.py: submit/poll client (reuses GatewayTokenProvider).
- vector/batch_ocr_store.py + migration 008: job tracking (portable SQLite+PG).
- document_processors/escalation.py: BatchPending control-flow signal.
- document_processors/ocr.py: batch state machine + sync fallback.
- vector/processor.py: thread doc identity to the OCR tier; raise BatchPending
from the pending sentinel; propagate it as control flow (not a failure).
- vector/queue/procrastinate.py: BatchPending -> same-queue retry_in, exempt
from the transient cap (bounded by the processor's deadline).
- config + docs; tests across client/store/processor/strategy/parse-tier.
1653 unit tests pass; ruff + ty green.

- tests: make the transient-backoff progression assertion load-independent by
bracketing the get_retry_decision call with before/after timestamps instead of
measuring against a second datetime.now() (no freezegun dependency).
- tests: use pytest.approx for the ingest-queue-depth gauge assertions —
SonarCloud python:S1244 (float == ) was a MAJOR reliability finding that
tripped the new_reliability_rating quality gate.
- processor: tighten the EscalateError lazy-bind comment (file processing already
imports the document stack via get_registry; the gating only spares the
delete / text-doc paths and module-load time).

- Register the periodic stalled-job reclaim on a dedicated ingest-maintenance
queue that every worker drains (any --tier), so reclaim still fires when the
fast fleet is scaled to zero and only ocr workers run. procrastinate's
periodic-defer dedup keeps it single-run across drainers.
- escalation: mark `unsupported`/`forced` reason labels as reserved (not raised).
- processor: note that options/progress_callback are intentionally not threaded
through _parse_pdf_tier yet (symmetric with the inline path).
- tests: assert TieredEscalationStrategy backoff progression (4/8/16/…/300s);
cover get_ingest_pending per-queue aggregation + the legacy job_counts
fallback; add an external-path zero-page no-escalation case; use the canonical
INGEST_QUEUE_FAST instead of the back-compat alias.

Split external (procrastinate) document processing into per-tier queues so a
document is attempted at most once per tier and requeued to the next tier's
queue on a low-quality parse, using procrastinate's native retry.
- escalation.py: TIER_LADDER (fast->structured->ocr) + EscalateError signal
- registry: process_tier (one tier) + evaluate_escalation post-parse gate
(reuses classify_from_text) + next_available_tier; shared _classify_result
and _oversize_result with the inline pipeline
- processor: process_document(tier=...) runs one tier and raises EscalateError
before embed (junk text never indexed); inline memory path unchanged
- queue/procrastinate: ingest-fast|structured|ocr queues; TieredEscalationStrategy
(queue-hop on EscalateError, bounded same-tier transient retry); queue-aware
task; producer defers to ingest-fast; per-queue counts + all-queue reclaim
- cli: worker --tier {fast,structured,ocr}
- billing: pages_ocr usage event + pipeline_tier metadata (paid OCR billed apart)
- observability: astrolabe_ingest_queue_depth{queue,status} gauge + per-queue
counts in nc_get_vector_sync_status / management status endpoint
- config: INGEST_ESCALATION_ENABLED (default true), INGEST_TRANSIENT_MAX_ATTEMPTS
INGEST_ESCALATION_ENABLED=false and INGEST_QUEUE=memory preserve prior behaviour.
Deck #323.
