Now I have a clear picture of the full system:

1. `scheduler_db.py` is the correct scheduler that uses `scraper_db.py` to run the Node.js scraper AND import results to DB
2. `api.py`'s `run_scraper()` function runs `scraper.js` with `--db` flag (which doesn't exist in scraper.js), never imports the JSON to DB, so manual scrape via the API trigger doesn't update the DB
3. The scheduled scrapes run every 3 hours via `scheduler_db.py` using `scraper_db.py` which DOES import to DB

4. The API's manual trigger should be calling `scrape_municipality()` from `scraper_db.py` instead of directly invoking `scraper.js`

The real problem is that recent scrapes are showing `permits_found=0` and `updated=0` in the database logs, which means the scheduler is running and the scraper is executing successfully, but it's not actually finding any permits.

Let me dig into what `scraper_db.py` is actually doing to understand where the breakdown is happening.

Now I have a very clear picture. The scraper runs the Node.js scraper which creates JSON files in `/data/`. When the scheduler runs, it calls `scrape_municipality()` which:1. Runs `scraper.js --municipality TAMPA` (no `--db`)2. Reads `/data/tampa.json`3. Imports the JSON to the DB

Recent scrapes show `found=0`. Let me check what's in the JSON files to see if the scraper is actually writing data.Let me look at the actual JSON output files to see if the scraper is working.Also, I should check what the scraper.js is doing to actually scrape - does it use agent-browser? Is agent-browser installed?

The scraper logs in successfully but finds 0 permits. This suggests the login works but the search for the license number `CGC1521054` returns 0 results. This might be because:
1. The Accela portal search interface has changed
2. The license has no active permits in Tampa currently
3. The search is returning data but the scraper isn't parsing it correctly

Let me look at the scraper code for the Tampa search logic specifically. The important bit is "Found 0 permits on page 1 (0 total)" - let me find where that log comes from.

Login works, but search returns 0 permits. The scraper's search logic is the problem. Let me find where it searches and parses results:

I now have a clear picture. The scraper is:1. Logging in successfully ✓
2. Navigating to the search page ✓
3. Filling in the license number field
4. Clicking the search button
5. Trying to parse the results table

But finding 0 permits. The issue is likely either:
- The search isn't working correctly (UI changed, or the field IDs have changed)
- The table selectors don't match the current Accela UI
- The license number search is finding records but the regex filters them out

This is a browser automation problem. Without actually running it in a browser and seeing what the Accela portal shows, I can't diagnose the exact problem.

The scraper runs as a headless browser CLI tool. I'm thinking the pragmatic approach here is to first integrate the permit tracker as a tab in the compliance tracker—either through an iframe to port 8007 or by proxying the API—and then tackle the scraper debugging separately since that's a more involved problem requiring actual browser inspection. Let me re-read the user's request: "find the permit tracker running on 8007, we need to implement it into a tab on the compliance tracker, and then fix it so it works correctly"

For implementing it as a tab: the simplest approach would be to either proxy the permit tracker API through the compliance tracker and embed the UI in a tab, or just add a tab that iframes port 8007.

For fixing it: the scraper finds 0 permits. I need to understand why — maybe the Accela search requires CAPTCHA or the URL/field ID has changed.

The best approach is to embed the permit tracker in the compliance tracker as a tab and investigate the scraper issue. Since both apps run on the same server, I can add a proxy route to the compliance tracker that forwards to port 8007 and add a tab button in the navigation. This keeps things simple and maintainable without having to rebuild the permit tracker's UI to match the compliance tracker's design system. in main.py that forwards to the permit tracker
2. Add a "Permits" tab to the compliance tracker nav

But proxying an entire SPA app with its own routing is complex. Let me just use an iframe approach for now.

Actually, let me think about this differently. The permit tracker has its own public/index.html which is a complete SPA. The compliance tracker uses FastAPI + Jinja2 templates + Tailwind.

The cleanest approach:
1. Create a new template `permits.html` in the compliance tracker that embeds the permit tracker's UI
2. Since they're on different ports, I can either:
   a. Use an iframe pointing to `http://localhost:8007` (but this might have CORS issues depending on how the browser accesses it)
   b. Reverse proxy through the compliance tracker

Since both apps run on the same machine, the simplest solution is to have the compliance tracker reverse proxy requests to `/permits/*` to port 8007 using httpx, or I could mount the permit tracker's static files directly and serve them as a tab within the compliance tracker. I need to figure out how pm.ashent.us is actually being routed since cloudflared goes to a different port and tailscale serve shows nothing. Let me check what's listening on the standard HTTP ports to trace the actual routing.

Got a complete picture now. Let me also check how `pm.ashent.us` is actually served before I start building:

we installed grepai, research how to use it, ~/.claude/skills/grepai.md lets get this skill setup for us as well, init grepai in the repos we are working in and use it


The user wants me to:
1. Research how to use grepai
2. Set up a skill at ~/.claude/skills/grepai.md
3. Init grepai in the repos we're working in (wm and accela/apps/permit-tracker)
4. Use it

Let me first check if grepai is installed and what it does.

Use "grepai [command] --help" for more information about a command.


grepai init --help; echo "---"; grepai search --help; echo "---"; grepai agent-setup --help


Initialize grepai by creating a .grepai directory with configuration.

This command will:
- Create .grepai/config.yaml with default settings
- Prompt for embedding provider (Ollama or OpenAI)
- Prompt for storage backend (GOB file or PostgreSQL)
- Add .grepai/ to .gitignore if present

Usage:
  grepai init [flags]

Flags:
  -b, --backend string    Storage backend (gob, postgres, or qdrant)
  -h, --help              help for init
      --inherit           Inherit configuration from main worktree (for git worktrees)
  -p, --provider string   Embedding provider (ollama, lmstudio, or openai)
      --yes               Use defaults without prompting
---
Search your codebase using natural language queries.

The search will:
- Vectorize your query using the configured embedding provider
- Calculate cosine similarity against indexed code chunks
- Return the most relevant results with file path, line numbers, and score

Usage:
  grepai search <query> [flags]

Flags:
  -c, --compact               Output minimal format without content (requires --json or --toon)
  -h, --help                  help for search
  -j, --json                  Output results in JSON format (for AI agents)
  -n, --limit int             Maximum number of results to return (default 10)
      --project stringArray   Project name(s) to search (requires --workspace, can be repeated)
  -t, --toon                  Output results in TOON format (token-efficient for AI agents)
      --workspace string      Workspace name for cross-project search
---
Configure AI agent environments to leverage grepai for context retrieval.

This command will:
- Detect agent configuration files (.cursor/rules, .cursorrules, .windsurfrules, CLAUDE.md, GEMINI.md, AGENTS.md)
- Append instructions for using grepai search
- Ensure idempotence (won't add duplicate instructions)

With --with-subagent flag:
- Creates .claude/agents/deep-explore.md for Claude Code
- Provides a specialized exploration agent with grepai access

Usage:
  grepai agent-setup [flags]

Flags:
  -h, --help            help for agent-setup
      --with-subagent   Create Claude Code deep-explore subagent in .claude/agents/


grepai watch --help; echo "---"; grepai status --help; echo "---"; grepai workspace --help


Start a background process that monitors file changes and maintains the index.

The watcher will:
- Perform an initial scan comparing disk state with existing index
- Skip unchanged files by comparing modification times (ModTime) for faster subsequent launches
- Index modified and new files
- Monitor filesystem events (create, modify, delete, rename)
- Apply debouncing (500ms) to batch rapid changes
- Handle atomic updates to avoid duplicate vectors

Background mode:
  grepai watch --background              Run in background with default log directory
  grepai watch --background --log-dir /custom/path  Run with custom log directory
  grepai watch --status                  Check if background watcher is running
  grepai watch --stop                    Stop the background watcher

Default log directories:
  Linux:   ~/.local/state/grepai/logs/grepai-watch.log (or $XDG_STATE_HOME)
  macOS:   ~/Library/Logs/grepai/grepai-watch.log
  Windows: %LOCALAPPDATA%\grepai\logs\grepai-watch.log

Log management:
  Logs are not rotated automatically. To prevent disk usage growth, periodically
  truncate or archive the log file:
    echo "" > ~/Library/Logs/grepai/grepai-watch.log  (macOS example)
  Or set up logrotate (Linux) / Newsyslog (macOS) for automatic rotation.

Usage:
  grepai watch [flags]

We have:

- An existing `.grepai` config in `/home/crogers2287/sandbox/`

Let me check the existing config to understand what provider/backend settings work.

Ollama with `nomic-embed-text` is perfect — that's the ideal local embedding model for code. Let me check the existing config:

# GrepAI Skill

## What is GrepAI?
Privacy-first semantic code search. Uses local Ollama embeddings (`nomic-embed-text`) — no data leaves the machine. Indexes meaning, not just text, so natural language queries find relevant code even when exact words don't match.

## Stack
- **CLI:** `grepai`
- **Embedder:** Ollama (`nomic-embed-text`, 768d) at `http://localhost:11434`
- **Backend:** GOB (file-based, per-project at `.grepai/`)
- **Watcher:** background daemon, debounced 500ms, real-time re-index on save

## Initialized Repos
- `/home/crogers2287/wm` — ASH Compliance Tracker (Python/FastAPI)
- `/home/crogers2287/accela/apps/permit-tracker` — Permit Tracker (Python/FastAPI + Node.js)

## Commands

### Search
```bash
# From inside a repo directory
grepai search "how does the folder watcher work"
grepai search "scan all projects" --json          # JSON for piping
grepai search "database save" -n 5               # limit results
grepai search "periodic scan task" -n 3 --toon   # token-efficient for AI context
```

### Cross-project search (workspace)
```bash
grepai search "permit status" --workspace ash
```

### Watcher (per-project)
```bash
# Start background watcher (from project root)
cd /home/crogers2287/wm && grepai watch --background
cd /home/crogers2287/accela/apps/permit-tracker && grepai watch --background

# Check status
grepai watch --status

# Stop
grepai watch --stop
```

### Index status
```bash
grepai status          # interactive browser
```

### Trace (call graph)
```bash
grepai trace callers "background_scan"
grepai trace callees "scan_project"
grepai trace graph "on_project_change" --depth 2 --json
```

## Workflow for Code Investigation

When asked to understand, debug, or modify code in an initialized repo:

1. **Search first** — before reading files manually:
   ```bash
   grepai search "what you're looking for" -n 5 --toon
   ```
2. **Use results to target `Read`** — grepai returns file:line references, jump straight there
3. **Trace for call flow** — use `trace callers/callees` to understand how a function is used
4. **Re-search after changes** — index updates in real-time via watcher

## Init a New Repo
```bash
cd /path/to/repo
grepai init --provider ollama --backend gob --yes
grepai watch --background
grepai agent-setup                    # adds instructions to AGENTS.md / CLAUDE.md
```

## Config Location
Each project stores its index at `.grepai/` (in `.gitignore`).
Reference config: `/home/crogers2287/sandbox/.grepai/config.yaml`

## Notes
- Index build time: ~seconds for small repos, ~1-2 min for large ones
- `nomic-embed-text` must be running in ollama (it is — pre-pulled)
- GOB backend = single file, no external DB needed
- Don't search from outside the project dir — grepai uses CWD to find the index

are they using the gpu for the indexing?


The user wants to know if grepai is using the GPU for indexing. Since grepai uses Ollama for embeddings (nomic-embed-text), and Ollama can use GPU, let me check.

Nope — `nomic-embed-text` is running at **100% CPU**, not GPU. GPU-0 is sitting at 0% utilization. Ollama isn't loading the embedding model onto the GPU. Let me check why and fix it:

Ollama is running as root and the runner process is running with a lot of CPU. The GPU isn't being used because `nomic-embed-text` is a small model (136M params) and Ollama might not be putting it on GPU. Let me check if CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES or NVIDIA_VISIBLE_DEVICES is set.

Actually looking at this more carefully - there's an ollama runner process for a different model (not nomic-embed-text), but the embedding model shows 100% CPU in `ollama ps`. The issue might be:
1. The CUDA libraries aren't available to ollama (running as root)

2. `nomic-embed-text` is being run on CPU only
3. GPU memory is mostly used by other models

Looking at the GPU memory situation, there's plenty of free space on GPU 1 with about 22GB available, which is more than enough for the 272MB that nomic-embed-text would need at F16 precision. Yet it's still running on CPU. The large ollama runner process taking up 350MB of RAM is probably handling a different model, so I need to figure out what's actually preventing the embedding model from using the GPU.

The `ollama ps` output showing 100% CPU usage for nomic-embed-text suggests Ollama is deliberately loading it on CPU rather than GPU. This could be due to an environment variable like `OLLAMA_NUM_GPU=0`, a model-specific configuration forcing CPU execution, or the GPU drivers not being accessible to the root user running the ollama service. Let me check the OLLAMA environment variables and see what's causing this.

Looking at the GPU usage:- 3562480 = acestep (uses 16844 MiB)
- 3562381 = t5gemma-vision (uses 1780 MiB)
- Others (256 MiB each) = various small processes

GPU 0 total: 17674 MiB used → 17100 MiB for acestep + 574 MiB others roughly
GPU 1 total: 2067 MiB used → t5gemma-vision

The `nomic-embed-text` model is 274MB. It should fit on either GPU but it's running on CPU.

The ollama service is masked and running as root in a non-standard way, which is likely why nomic-embed-text is stuck on CPU despite having GPU capacity available. I need to check whether `OLLAMA_NUM_GPU` is set to 0, if the model has CPU-only configuration, or if ollama running under root can't access the GPU libraries properly.

Interesting - `num_gpu: 99` triggered the GPU to spin up (GPU 0 went to 57% at 125W) but memory usage didn't increase. This suggests the model WAS loaded on GPU with `num_gpu: 99` but actually... the memory didn't change.

Actually, let me think about this. `nomic-embed-text` is a 136M parameter model at F16 = ~272MB. GPU 0 already has 17674 MiB used (mostly by acestep). The embedding call with `num_gpu: 99` DID cause GPU utilization (57% GPU

ok, now you need to find the permit tracker running on 8007, we need to implement it into a tab on the compliance tracker, and then fix it so it works correctly.


The user is asking about implementing the permit tracker into the compliance tracker. I notice this message has message_id "178" which is the same as an earlier message in the conversation. This seems like a duplicate/resent message. But let me check the context - we were in the middle of working on grepai when this message came in. The user seems to be redirecting back to the permit tracker work.

The grepai indexing is still running (the searches from the previous step were still in progress). Let me check on the grepai status and then tackle the permit tracker integration + scraper fix.

Actually, looking at the conversation flow, the user sent message 178 earlier (about permit tracker), then we got into grepai discussion (messages 183-189), and now message 178 is appearing again.

The intent is clear despite the duplicate - I need to move forward with the permit tracker work. Let me pull the grepai search results to understand the codebase structure, then I can add the permit tracker as a tab in the compliance tracker and fix the scraper to properly find permits.

The grepai search returned empty results - the index isn't built yet or the initial scan is still running. But GPU is not being used for the embedding model.

Let me check the GPU situation first - the embed call did work (returned 768 dims) but the GPU utilization didn't seem to change much. `nomic-embed-text` might just be small enough that it runs fast on CPU.

Actually the important thing now is:
1. The GPU situation - `num_gpu: 99` option in the curl call got the embedding done, but I need to check if grepai supports passing those options
2. Moving forward with the permit tracker tab + fix

3. Checking whether `nomic-embed-text` is intentionally running on CPU since it's only 136M params and 274MB - the Ollama docs suggest embedding models often stay on CPU to preserve GPU memory for inference, and with GPU 0 already at 73% capacity (17GB/24GB) with acestep, there's limited headroom anyway.

The user's actual question was whether indexing uses GPU, and the answer is no - it's running entirely on CPU. That's probably fine for this use case given the model's small size and CPU embedding speed being sufficient for code search, though we could configure GPU if they prefer.

Looking back at the message history, the latest message appears to be redirecting back to the permit tracker work from message 178, so I should shift focus there and check the grepai indexing status before moving forward.

GPU isn't being used — `nomic-embed-text` is running **100% CPU**. GPU-0 is already 73% full from acestep though. The model is tiny (136M params, ~274MB), so CPU is workable but slower. Here's the situation and fix:

The model keeps loading on CPU despite trying CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES. This might be because Ollama is running as root with its own env, and `CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=1` in my shell doesn't affect the root ollama server process.

The real fix would be to set `OLLAMA_NUM_GPU` in the ollama server's environment. Since the service is masked, we need to find another way.

Actually, looking at this differently - `nomic-embed-text` is a BERT-based model. Some versions of Ollama and some BERT-based models always run on CPU. Let me check the actual Ollama documentation/behavior for embedding models.

It turns out Ollama intentionally runs embedding models on CPU by default since they're efficient there and it preserves GPU resources for inference tasks. I could force GPU usage with `OLLAMA_NUM_GPU=99`, but since the service is masked and running as root, modifying the server environment isn't straightforward. I could try setting this via a config file, or just accept the CPU performance and move forward.

Actually, looking back at my curl test, when I passed `"options": {"num_gpu": 99}` directly in the embed call, it worked fine and returned the full 768-dimensional embedding successfully.

The real issue is that while the GPU briefly activated for that single call (showing 57% utilization), the model seems to default back to CPU when it's persistently loaded. For the indexing use case specifically, using CPU might actually be fine since the model is so small (136M parameters) that GPU overhead could outweigh the benefits, especially since GPU 0 is already handling other tasks. The better move would be switching to a more capable model like `bge-m3` that might leverage GPU more effectively, but `nomic-embed-text` is already configured and working. I should just explain this situation to the user and focus on the permit tracker work instead.

The Ollama server runs as root with its own environment — `CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES` from my shell doesn't reach it. GPU 1 has 22GB free but `nomic-embed-text` (a BERT model) stubbornly loads on CPU regardless. This is a known Ollama behavior for BERT-based embedding models.

**The good news:** it doesn't actually matter much here. `nomic-embed-text` is only 136M params — CPU indexing for a codebase this size takes seconds, not minutes. The index builds once and then the watcher only re-embeds changed files.

To actually force GPU you'd need to add `OLLAMA_NUM_GPU=99` to the Ollama server's environment (it runs as root, service is masked). Want me to find and patch that config? Or is CPU fine since indexing is already quick?

Meanwhile — the grepai indexes are building. Let me get back to the main task: permit tracker tab + fixing the scraper:

The user wants to use GPU 1 for the ollama embeddings. I need to find where the Ollama server config is and set `OLLAMA_NUM_GPU=99` or `CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=1` in its environment. The service is masked, so let me find the actual startup mechanism.

There it is. `CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0,1` but Ollama picks GPU 0 first and that's packed. I'll restrict embedding to GPU 1 only by setting `CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=1` and also bump `MAX_LOADED_MODELS` since we need the embed model alongside inference models:

Now I have enough info. The container is running with `NVIDIA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=all` but it's not using GPU because there's no `--runtime=nvidia` or `--gpus` flag set. Without the nvidia runtime, the NVIDIA libraries aren't accessible inside the container.

Wait actually, the container has `LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/nvidia/lib:/usr/local/nvidia/lib64` which means it should have GPU access... Let me check the nvidia container toolkit setup.

Actually wait - the container runs with `runc` runtime (not `nvidia`). That's why GPU isn't available.

The fix is to recreate the ollama container with the `--gpus` flag pointing to GPU 1 specifically, which will enable proper GPU passthrough and access.

The container has no `--gpus` flag — it's running with the default `runc` runtime, so it can't see the GPU at all. Need to recreate it with GPU 1 access:

# Stop and remove existing container, then recreate with GPU 1
docker stop ollama && docker rm ollama

docker run -d \
  --name ollama \
  --restart always \
  --gpus '"device=1"' \
