feat(ocr): ParserService in the layout job + Checkpoint 1 (ENG-85) - #337
ENG-51: pymupdf and pdf_inspector expose PageParser.parse_pages(pdf_bytes, pages, *, ocr); registry returns PageParsers and a default ParserService (pdf_inspector stays explicit-only).
ENG-52: the layout job plans and parses through ParserService in asyncio.to_thread and writes LayoutMetadata.parsers, ocr_pages, ocr_skipped_pages.
ocr_pages: pages where OCR actually ran. ocr_skipped_pages: pages planned for OCR (triage flagged them) whose existing text layer liteparse read instead. pages_needing_ocr is the plan. robert1991 has a hidden text layer on all 6 pages, so ocr_pages=[], ocr_skipped_pages=[1..6].
Parser reading order is kept (no geometric re-sort); blocks from a later task on a page are slotted in by (top, left).
Containment checks the block's words against the cells under it and requires the block to account for most of their text, so a false table with one giant cell no longer swallows prose.
workflows/documents.py passes layout_parser as given (None = per-page routing).
fix(deps): pymupdf4llm 2.0 is an empty 904-byte wheel (Dependabot build(deps): bump pymupdf4llm from 1.28.2 to 2.0 in /extralit-server #334). The extra is pinned to >=1.28.2,<2, and IdentifyHeaders/TocHeaders are imported from pymupdf4llm.helpers.pymupdf_rag because pymupdf-layout removes them from the package namespace.
Library check: no new DoclingDocument render/walk helper (script uses export_to_markdown/iterate_items).
Checkpoint 1 report
Script: extralit-server/scripts/checkpoint1_dump.py; dumps in /tmp/eng85-checkpoint1/. adageba's born-digital pages now route to pymupdf.
Table 5: ok — Variables | Odds Ratio | 95% Confidence Interval
Table 6: ok — Insecticide | Concentration (%) | Knockdown (60mins) | Control knockdown | Final test mortality (24hrs) | Number of mosquitoes tested | Control mortality | Susceptibility status
Header gaps (evidence in /tmp/eng85-checkpoint1/header_gaps.md)
adageba T4: accepted. pymupdf emits "Duration(Months)" and "6 months post-distribution of nets" as separate header rows; the gold's merged "Duration (Months) - 6 months ..." is a human concatenation of a 2-row spanning header that no extracted cell contains.
robert T1/T2: ENG-84 gap, not our code. Raw liteparse blocks (robert_raw_liteparse_blocks.txt) put "Species caught" and "Study year" only in code blocks, never table cells, and no block contains "Variable". Merge/containment do not drop them.
ENG-52 acceptance: robert p3 keeps the Table 2 caption and left-column prose; p2 keeps "(192) (217) (212) (621)".

roborev verdict
Job 479 (gemini, --branch --base main): Pass, 0 findings (high 0 / medium 0 / low 0). CodeRabbit: no inline or review comments.
Closes ENG-51, ENG-52, ENG-85
Summary by CodeRabbit
New Features
Added per-page PDF parser routing, with OCR applied to pages that need it and existing text layers used where available.
Added layout metadata showing parser assignments, pages processed with OCR, and pages where OCR was skipped.
Improvements
Improved handling of text and tables to reduce false exclusions and preserve parser-provided reading order.
Added checks for table headers and OCR routing in a paper-processing report.
…G-52, ENG-85)
- pymupdf and pdf_inspector expose PageParser.parse_pages; registry returns PageParsers
and a default ParserService (pdf_inspector stays explicit-only)
- layout job plans and parses via ParserService in asyncio.to_thread and writes
LayoutMetadata.parsers, ocr_pages and ocr_skipped_pages (pages whose hidden text layer
liteparse reads instead of running OCR)
- keep the parser's reading order (no geometric re-sort); blocks from later tasks on a
page are slotted in by (top, left)
- containment checks a block's words against the cells under it before dropping it
- scripts/checkpoint1_dump.py dumps both gold PDFs and checks gold table header rows
Library check: no new DoclingDocument rendering/walking helper. The script uses
DoclingDocument.export_to_markdown and iterate_items; containment works on LayoutBlocks
before any item exists, so docling_core.transforms.serializer has nothing to serialize.
The OCR pipeline now plans parser assignments per page, distinguishes planned, completed, and skipped OCR pages, merges parser blocks while retaining each parser’s internal order, and applies container-based text containment during document assembly. The PR also adds a command-line report for parsed gold papers.

Summary
Page parser registry and routing extralit-server/src/extralit_server/contexts/ocr/parsers/*, extralit-server/tests/unit/contexts/ocr/test_*parser.py, extralit-server/tests/unit/contexts/ocr/test_parser_service.py
The registry exposes page-parser instances and a default parser service. The service plans parser assignments and OCR behavior by page, and the PDF Inspector parser implements page-based parsing. Tests cover parser selection, unavailable pages, and OCR classifications.
Block merging and layout assembly extralit-server/src/extralit_server/contexts/ocr/parsers/service.py, extralit-server/src/extralit_server/contexts/ocr/docling_builder.py, extralit-server/src/extralit_server/contexts/ocr/text.py, extralit-server/tests/unit/contexts/ocr/test_{parser_service,docling_builder}.py
Parser-task blocks are merged by position while preserving each input list’s order. Layout assembly checks text against table and picture containers and processes blocks in parser order. Tests cover merge ordering and containment.
OCR job integration and metadata extralit-server/src/extralit_server/api/schemas/v1/document/metadata.py, extralit-server/src/extralit_server/jobs/ocr_jobs.py, extralit-server/src/extralit_server/workflows/documents.py, extralit-server/tests/unit/jobs/test_ocr_jobs.py, extralit-server/tests/unit/workflows/test_document_workflow_layout.py
The workflow passes the optional parser selection through to the job. The job plans and parses in worker threads, then records parser assignments and OCR page classifications in layout metadata. Tests cover the resulting plan, metadata, and execution thread.
The script writes parsed-paper artifacts and reports table-header checks and OCR routing status. It exits with status 1 when routing fails or a header check is missing or cells-elsewhere.

Merge Risk: Moderate · previous review ec8ef
Parsing and layout assembly work for the normal paths. Before merging, decide whether a PDF that makes triage fail should still be parsed instead of failing the layout job. Duplicate text can remain beside tables whose cells have no bounding boxes. The remaining issues are narrow: the pdf-inspector parser's coordinate origin when called directly, and a loose header check in the checkpoint script.

Explanation
The title "feat(ocr): ParserService in the layout job + Checkpoint 1 (ENG-85)" names the main change: the layout job now plans and parses through ParserService. It also names the checkpoint script. The title does not follow the [Type] format in the repository template, but the check evaluates relevance, and the content matches the changeset.
Full details: Description check
Explanation
The description covers the main sections: a summary of the ENG-51 and ENG-52 changes, a Checkpoint 1 report, test commands and results, and closing tickets. It omits several template sections: the PR type checkboxes, the Steps to QA section, the tests-updated checkbox, the documentation-updated checkbox, and the CHANGELOG checklist item. It also does not use the template's '[Type] Short description' title format. Most required content is present, so the check passes, but the author should complete the missing template sections.
Resolution
Optionally complete the omitted template sections: tick the PR type (Feature, plus Bug Fix for the dependency pin), add Steps to QA, mark the tests and documentation checkboxes, and confirm the CHANGELOG.md entry. The title may also follow the [Type] Short description format.

Handle table cells without bounding boxes in the share check.
When cells lack bounding boxes, _carries_text counts all their words against every overlapping block. A block that duplicates one row of a large table can fail the share check and remain next to the table.
Handle missing cell bounds without counting all unlocated cells as touching every block. Preserve the protection against giant false-table cells.

- checkpoint1_dump: scanned gate checks every page needing OCR is in an OCR task, not that every task is OCR
- docling_builder: cells without a bbox count toward a block only if they share a word with it
- one-line docstrings on public functions added in this PR
Re: outside-diff comment on docling_builder.py_carries_text (cells without bounding boxes): valid, fixed in 5b06041.
Unlocated cells used to count as touching every block, so on a table without cell bboxes a block that duplicates one row was measured against the whole table's word count, failed CELL_SHARE_THRESHOLD, and stayed in the prose. Cells with a bbox are still selected by geometry; a cell without one now counts only if it shares a word with the block. Dropping unlocated cells entirely would mean a table with no cell bboxes could never absorb a duplicate block, so they still count when their words match. The giant-false-table protection is kept: a single long unlocated cell that contains the block's words is still counted, so the share check fails and the block is kept.
New tests: test_one_row_of_a_table_whose_cells_lack_bboxes_is_contained (fails on the old code) and test_prose_inside_one_giant_cell_without_a_bbox_is_kept.
Docstring Coverage: added one-line docstrings to the public functions and classes added in this PR (service.py, docling_builder.py, pymupdf.py, pdf_inspector.py, checkpoint1_dump.py). ocr_jobs.async_document_layout_job already had one.
