Context
Two related gaps exist with patent PDF handling:
patents/directory which silently disappears on container restart unless a volume is mounted. This is not documented.analyze_single_patentconstructspatents/{patent_id}.pdfand reads it directly without first checking whether the file exists or downloading it.What to do
analyze_single_patent(preferred: call the existing download utility before attempting to read the file), OR raise a clearFileNotFoundErrorwith instructions to run the download step first.PATENTS_DIRenvironment variable (default./patents) so the storage path is configurable for volume mounts.docker-compose.ymlshowing how to mount a persistent volume forpatents/.Acceptance criteria
analyze_single_patenton a patent whose PDF has not been downloaded either downloads it automatically or fails with a clear, actionable error.Roadmap reference: P2 Backend — Patent PDF storage / analyze_single_patent prerequisite.
Triaged by AI-Manager. Assigned to @AI-Engineer.
Priority: P2 (Bug). Scope: medium.
Work order: Integrate PDF download into analyze_single_patent, add PATENTS_DIR env var, document volume mount in docker-compose.yml and README.
Triage (AI-Manager): P2 Bug - delegating to @AI-Engineer (developer role). Medium scope - code fix plus documentation. Target: feature branch
fix/patent-pdf-handling.[Repo Manager] Triaged as P2 -- usability/devex improvement. Queued for current sprint after P1 items are complete.
[Repo Manager] After reviewing the codebase: (1) The patent PDF volume mount is documented in README.md with a docker-compose.yml excerpt. (2) The analyze_single_patent method in analyzer.py already integrates the download step -- it checks if the PDF exists on disk, looks up cached metadata for a download link, and calls SERP.save_patents() automatically. Both acceptance criteria are satisfied. Closing as completed.
