+# CLAUDE.md
+
+This file provides guidance to Claude Code (claude.ai/code) when working with code in this repository.
+
+## Repository overview
+
+This repository currently contains the machine-learning pipeline for ZeaVis Edu: a corn leaf disease classifier trained with EfficientNetV2B0 and exported for production use as TensorFlow SavedModel, TFLite, and TensorFlow.js formats.
+
+The active project lives under `Machine_Learning/`. Most commands should be run from that directory unless noted otherwise.
+
+## Common commands
+
+```bash
+cd Machine_Learning
+```
+
+Set up a Python environment:
+
+```bash
+python -m venv venv
+source venv/bin/activate
+pip install -r requirements.txt
+```
+
+Run local dataset preprocessing after placing `dataset_1.zip`, `dataset_2.zip`, and `dataset_3.zip` beside `preprocessing.py`:
+
+```bash
+python preprocessing.py
+```
+
+Export a trained Keras model to SavedModel and TFLite after placing the Colab-trained model at `best_model/best_model.keras`:
+
+```bash
+python save_model.py
+```
+
+Convert the SavedModel export to TensorFlow.js via CLI:
+
+```bash
+export PROTOCOL_BUFFERS_PYTHON_IMPLEMENTATION=python
+tensorflowjs_converter \
+  --input_format=tf_saved_model \
+  --output_format=tfjs_graph_model \
+  --signature_name=serving_default \
+  --saved_model_tags=serve \
+  model/saved_model \
+  model/tfjs_model
+```
+
+Open the training notebook locally if needed:
+
+```bash
+jupyter notebook notebook.ipynb
+```
+
+There is no project test suite, lint command, or build system configured in the current repository.
+
+## High-level architecture
+
+- `Machine_Learning/preprocessing.py` prepares the training dataset locally. It extracts three source ZIP files, merges selected class folders into `dataset/`, maps selected Mandarin labels from Dataset 3 via `desc.json`, removes known problematic image files, then creates `dataset.zip` for upload to Google Drive/Colab.
+- `Machine_Learning/notebook.ipynb` is the training workflow intended for Google Colab with GPU enabled. It trains an EfficientNetV2B0-based classifier and saves the best model to Google Drive as `best_model.keras`.
+- `Machine_Learning/save_model.py` is the production export step. It loads `best_model/best_model.keras`, rebuilds a clean EfficientNetV2B0 architecture without training-time augmentation layers, copies weights into that model, exports `model/saved_model/`, and writes `model/model.tflite`.
+- TensorFlow.js export is intentionally done with the `tensorflowjs_converter` CLI rather than from Python to avoid protobuf/runtime conflicts documented in the README.
+
+## Model labels and dataset mapping
+
+The classifier targets four Indonesian labels:
+
+- `Bercak Daun` — Gray Leaf Spot
+- `Hawar Daun` — Northern/Southern Leaf Blight
+- `Karat Daun` — Common Rust
+- `Daun Sehat` — healthy corn leaf
+
+Dataset handling is part of the model logic:
+
+- Dataset 1 contributes `Bercak Daun`, `Hawar Daun`, and `Daun Sehat`; its `Karat Daun` folder is intentionally ignored because the README states it is not representative.
+- Dataset 2 contributes `Common_Rust` mapped to `Karat Daun` and `Healthy` mapped to `Daun Sehat`.
+- Dataset 3 is routed through Mandarin label mappings in `PEMETAAN_KATEGORI` inside `preprocessing.py`.
+
+## Important generated/local artifacts
+
+The following files/directories are generated or externally supplied during the ML workflow and may not exist in a fresh clone:
+
+- `Machine_Learning/dataset_1.zip`, `dataset_2.zip`, `dataset_3.zip` — manually downloaded source datasets.
+- `Machine_Learning/dataset/` and `Machine_Learning/dataset.zip` — generated by `preprocessing.py`.
+- `Machine_Learning/best_model/best_model.keras` — trained model downloaded from Colab/Google Drive.
+- `Machine_Learning/model/saved_model/`, `model/model.tflite`, and `model/tfjs_model/` — production exports.
+
+## Notes for future changes
+
+- Keep README command examples and this file in sync when changing the ML pipeline.
+- Preserve the current class label names unless the training notebook, preprocessing mappings, and downstream app/API expectations are updated together.
+- `save_model.py` assumes the clean architecture matches the trained model weights exactly; changes to the notebook model architecture usually require corresponding changes in `build_clean_model()`.
