Key Learnings from 2026-05-06

  1. DB path sync: Scraped data lives at /data/smart_groceries.db on PVC. App reads from /opt/data/smart-groceries/data/smart_groceries.db. Must sync or fix mount paths.
  2. Indentation bugs: Python files can get corrupted by LLM edits. Always lint before deploying.
  3. Startup deferral: Heavy scheduler scans block readiness probes. Defer first run with await asyncio.sleep(60).
  4. No curl/wget in slim images: Use Job pods mounted on same PVC for inspection when target pod lacks tools.
