**Triggers:**
- Push to main
- Version tags (v*)
- Pull requests (test only)
- Manual dispatch

---

## Usage Examples

### Quick Start

```bash
# 1. Clone repository
git clone https://github.com/your-org/skill-seekers.git
cd skill-seekers

# 2. Configure environment
cp .env.example .env
# Edit .env with your API keys

# 3. Start services
docker-compose up -d

# 4. Verify
docker-compose ps
curl http://localhost:8765/health
```

### Scrape Documentation

```bash
docker-compose run skill-seekers \
  skill-seekers scrape --config /configs/react.json
```

### Export to Vector Databases

```bash
docker-compose run skill-seekers bash -c "
  for target in weaviate chroma faiss qdrant; do
    python -c \"
import sys
from pathlib import Path
sys.path.insert(0, '/app/src')
from skill_seekers.cli.adaptors import get_adaptor
adaptor = get_adaptor('$target')
adaptor.package(Path('/output/react'), Path('/output'))
print('✅ $target export complete')
    \"
  done
"
```

### Run Quality Analysis

```bash
docker-compose run skill-seekers \
  python3 -c "
import sys
from pathlib import Path
sys.path.insert(0, '/app/src')
from skill_seekers.cli.quality_metrics import QualityAnalyzer
analyzer = QualityAnalyzer(Path('/output/react'))
report = analyzer.generate_report()
print(analyzer.format_report(report))
"
```

## Production Deployment

### Resource Requirements

**Minimum:**
- CPU: 2 cores
- RAM: 2GB
- Disk: 5GB

**Recommended:**
- CPU: 4 cores
- RAM: 4GB
- Disk: 20GB (with vector DBs)

### Security Hardening

1. **Secrets Management**
```bash
# Docker secrets
echo "sk-ant-key" | docker secret create anthropic_key -
```

2. **Resource Limits**
```yaml
services:
  mcp-server:
    deploy:
      resources:
        limits:
          cpus: '2.0'
          memory: 2G
```

3. **Read-Only Filesystem**
```yaml
services:
  mcp-server:
    read_only: true
    tmpfs:
      - /tmp
```

### Monitoring

**Health Checks:**
```bash
# Check services
docker-compose ps

# Detailed health
docker inspect skill-seekers-mcp | grep Health
```

**Logs:**
```bash
# Stream logs
docker-compose logs -f

# Export logs
docker-compose logs > logs.txt
```

**Metrics:**
```bash
# Resource usage
docker stats

# Per-service metrics
docker-compose top
```

## Troubleshooting Guide

### Common Issues

1. **Port Already in Use**
```bash
# Check what's using the port
lsof -i :8765

# Use different port
MCP_PORT=8766 docker-compose up -d
```

2. **Permission Denied**
```bash
# Fix ownership
sudo chown -R $(id -u):$(id -g) data/ output/
```

3. **Out of Memory**
```bash
# Increase limits
docker-compose up -d --scale mcp-server=1 --memory=4g
```

4. **Slow Build**
```bash
# Enable BuildKit
export DOCKER_BUILDKIT=1
docker build -t skill-seekers:local .
```
