Ingest relies on SurrealDB incremental index maintenance; the worker runs native REBUILD INDEX on a configurable interval with lease state on system_settings.
Expose fastembed_model in config and a model dropdown on Admin → Models.
Persist dimension from the chosen model, require restart to load it, and
align legacy OpenAI default settings so fresh local-embedding installs
start cleanly.
Unify embedding config, build providers from system settings, and fail
startup when index builds error or time out. Move Surreal assets under
common/db so embeds exclude crate source, and read storage via streams.
