+# Docker context guard for the worker image build
+# (`docker build -f worker/Dockerfile -t strategy-lab-worker:local .` from the
+# project root). The Dockerfile only COPYs requirements-worker.txt and worker/,
+# so everything else stays out of the build context. Rationale: a full-context
+# build previously pushed ~2.5 GB into the builder, including private QA
+# evidence artifacts/, server sources, docs and caches that must never enter
+# an image layer derived context.
+#
+# Whitelist semantics (moby patternmatcher, last matching pattern wins):
+# `**/*` excludes every path (including dot entries; `**` also matches zero
+# directories), and the negations re-include exactly what worker/Dockerfile
+# COPYs: requirements-worker.txt and the worker/ tree.
