"""
Assemble the parquet shards of a fan-out embedding run (see launch-embedding-fleet.py)
into the final Hub dataset, one file at a time, with a provenance card.
Pass-through design: worker shards are ALREADY valid parquet in final order, so nothing
is loaded or re-serialized — each file is downloaded, its footer row count read, and the
file uploaded to the dataset repo as data/train-XXXXX-of-YYYYY.parquet. Peak disk = one
shard, so any total run size fits on a small CPU flavor. Deliberately the ONLY step in
the fleet that writes to a dataset repo — workers write bucket objects, so N-way commit
contention (412s) can't happen by construction.
Accepts both worker output namings: <rank>.parquet (row mode) and <rank>.partNNNN.parquet
(streaming mode). Re-running is idempotent for same-named files; if a re-run has FEWER
files than a previous consolidation of the same repo, stale data/ files from the earlier
attempt are removed first.
Usually spawned as a cpu Job by the launcher; can also run locally:
uv run consolidate-shards.py --bucket you/embedding-runs --run-id 20260709-1200-abc123
