2026-07-15 re-run of the 79-image benchmark: the tiled full-res pass, VL
text-line evidence, and VL SKU retry deployed at end of 2026-07-14 produce
ZERO flips vs the 79.7% baseline (only img1's expiry pred changed to a
lenient-parse garble). Detail dump: product_scan_detail_20260715.json.
Probe endpoint POST :8120/probe-ocr (temporary, remove before production):
OCRs a crop of a container-local image through arbitrary preprocessing
recipes (scale/blur/close/CLAHE/threshold) and alternate readers - VL
layout-parsing with/without layout detection, direct VLM chat on :8118,
lazily-loaded PP-OCRv5 server det/rec. Probing the dot-matrix expiry crops
of img2/img41 with every combination shows none of the stack's models can
read these prints (VL tags them as pictures, VLM hallucinates, v5-server
skips them) - the 21 expiry non-detections are a model capability ceiling,
not a pipeline bug.
