Before this change, the Active Downloads / Processing Queue UI showed the
ingestion progress gauge jumping wildly during multi-batch ZIM ingestion
(e.g. 5% → 88% → 27% → 5% → 56% → 36% over ~60 seconds for cooking SE).
Each continuation batch is a separate BullMQ job, and `EmbedFileJob.handle()`
reported `job.progress` in two different reference frames depending on
where it was in the batch lifecycle:
- During-batch (via the onProgress callback): 5% → 95% scaled across
"% through this batch's chunks"
- End-of-batch (just before dispatching the next): overwritten to
`(nextOffset / totalArticles) * 100` — % through the whole file
- Next continuation batch starts with progress = 5% explicitly, then
climbs through the per-batch range again
`listActiveJobs()` returns the latest active BullMQ job's progress. With
GPU-accelerated ingestion completing a batch every ~4 seconds, the UI
saw the jobId rotate constantly and the gauge whipsaw between the two
reference frames.
`totalArticles` was already wired through the EmbedFileJob params shape
and used end-of-batch — but RagService never actually populated it,
so any frame-scaling that depended on it silently fell back to the
per-batch range. Two fixes together:
1. `ZIMExtractionService.extractZIMContent()` now returns
`{ chunks: ZIMContentChunk[]; totalArticles: number }` instead of a
raw chunks array, surfacing `archive.articleCount` to the caller.
Single caller (rag_service) updated to destructure.
2. `RagService.processZimFile()` includes `totalArticles` in its result
so `EmbedFileJob.dispatch()` can propagate it to the continuation
batch (which the existing code already does via
`totalArticles: totalArticles || result.totalArticles`).
3. `EmbedFileJob`'s onProgress callback scales the service-reported
per-batch percent into the overall-file frame when `totalArticles`
is known: `((batchOffset + (percent/100) * ZIM_BATCH_SIZE) /
totalArticles) * 100`. Capped at 99% to leave room for the explicit
100% set at file completion. Falls back to the original 5-95% range
for single-batch files (uploaded PDFs/txts) where totalArticles is
undefined — the gauge then represents % through the only batch,
which is what the UI expects for one-shot files.
Validated on NOMAD8 (RX 6800, ROCm-accelerated nomic):
- devdocs python (small, ~1500 articles): batch progressions seen
monotonically across continuation jobIds:
1501@30% → 1510@33% → 1514@43% → 1518@52%.
- ifixit (huge, ~100k articles): stays near 3% for the first many
batches at offset 0..3000 — correct, the file is enormous.
- wikipedia_en_medicine (large, ~70k articles): stays near 0-1% for
the first batches — also correct.
- Brief 0-5% blip on continuation handoff (the explicit
`safeUpdateProgress(job, 5)` at batch start, before the first
onProgress callback fires) — visible but quickly resolves to the
overall-frame value. No more 5% ↔ 88% chaos.
Three bugs in the RAG embedding pipeline, diagnosed and patched by @sbruschke
against v1.31.0 with working before/after chunk counts. All three are
root-cause contributors to #388.
1. scanAndSyncStorage queued every file under /storage/zim/ for embedding,
including Kiwix's generated kiwix-library.xml. EmbedFileJob rejected it
with "Unsupported file type" and the default 30-attempt retry policy
kept it looping on every sync, flooding nomad_admin logs. Now gated on
determineFileType(filePath) !== 'unknown'.
2. hasMoreBatches compared zimChunks.length (section-level chunk count
under the 'structured' strategy) against ZIM_BATCH_SIZE (an article
limit). Because articles emit multiple sections, the two are never
equal for real archives and processing silently stopped after the
first 50 articles. Now gated on articlesInBatch >= ZIM_BATCH_SIZE.
3. extractStructuredContent walked only direct children of <body>, so any
ZIM that wraps content in a container div (Devdocs, Wikipedia,
FreeCodeCamp, React docs, etc.) produced zero sections and silently
embedded zero chunks while reporting success. Now walks the full DOM
via $('body').find('h2, h3, h4, p, ul, ol, dl, table'), with a
whole-body text fallback when the selector walk yields nothing.
Before/after chunk counts confirmed by @sbruschke on v1.31.0:
devdocs_en_git 0 -> 916
devdocs_en_react 0 -> 481
devdocs_en_node 0 -> 423
libretexts_en_eng 1 -> 35 (climbing)
Wikipedia resumed progressing normally through its 6M articles.

Corrupted ZIM files cause a native C++ abort (ZimFileFormatError) that
bypasses JS try/catch and kills the process. Add magic number validation
before passing files to @openzim/libzim so invalid files are skipped
gracefully. Also deduplicate Ollama download progress broadcasts — both
within a single stream (skip unchanged percentages) and across concurrent
callers (share one download promise per model).
