Local package. It runs on your machine, not through the gateway.

DESIGN_PATTERN_GENERATOR_API_KEYsecretAPI key for the generator LLM (LiteLLM provider).
DESIGN_PATTERN_GENERATOR_PROVIDERLiteLLM provider prefix, e.g. openai, anthropic, openrouter.
DESIGN_PATTERN_GENERATOR_MODELModel name, combined as <provider>/<model> via LiteLLM.
DESIGN_PATTERN_GENERATOR_BASE_URLOpenAI-compatible base URL (LiteLLM api_base).
DESIGN_PATTERN_PATTERN_DIRECTORYDirectory with the catalog records (*.json main records plus per-language files). The image bakes the 438-record catalogue at /app/pattern.
DESIGN_PATTERN_EMBEDDER_BASE_URLRequired: the dense retrieval leg embeds the 438-record catalogue during startup warmup and the server refuses to start when the endpoint is unreachable. TEI embeddings endpoint: on the Docker host use http://host.docker.internal:8080 (add --add-host=host.docker.internal:host-gateway on Linux); on a shared Docker network use http://design-pattern-tei-embed:8080.
DESIGN_PATTERN_EMBEDDER_API_KEYsecretAPI key for the embedder. Keyless TEI accepts any non-empty value; use 'not-needed' there.
DESIGN_PATTERN_RERANKER_BASE_URLRequired: retrieval runs a mandatory TEI cross-encoder rerank whenever the fused pool has more than one candidate. On the Docker host use http://host.docker.internal:8080; on a shared Docker network use http://design-pattern-tei-rerank:8080.
