Context

Roadmap reference: P2 Backend -- Patent PDF storage

Problem

PDFs are saved to a local patents/ directory on the container filesystem. In a containerized deployment this directory is ephemeral: any restart or reschedule of the pod/container silently discards all downloaded PDFs.

There is no documentation in the README or docker-compose.yml about the required volume mount, so operators deploying the service will discover this data-loss behaviour at runtime.

Acceptance Criteria

  • Either: add a named volume or bind-mount entry for patents/ in docker-compose.yml with a comment explaining the requirement.
  • And/or: add a README section (or inline docker-compose comment) that explains the persistence requirement and recommends an S3/MinIO-backed storage adapter as a follow-up.
  • The chosen approach is documented so any operator can reproduce a persistent deployment.
  • No existing tests are broken.
