+Being in the context isn't enough on its own: the Dockerfile cooks the
+dependencies (`cargo chef cook`) before it copies the tree in, from a recipe
+that carries only the workspace's manifests. So each patched path must also be
+copied into that stage before the cook step, or the same error comes back
+there -- as it did for 2026.9.24.2, the first tag after the context fix.
