+## Hatchet Setup (Fresh DB)
+
+After resetting the Hatchet database:
+
+### Option A: Automatic (CLI)
+
+```bash
+# Get default tenant ID and create token in one command
+TENANT_ID=$(docker compose exec -T postgres psql -U reflector -d hatchet -t -c \
+  "SELECT id FROM \"Tenant\" WHERE slug = 'default';" | tr -d ' \n') && \
+TOKEN=$(docker compose exec -T hatchet /hatchet-admin token create \
+  --config /config --tenant-id "$TENANT_ID" 2>/dev/null | tr -d '\n') && \
+echo "HATCHET_CLIENT_TOKEN=$TOKEN"
+```
+
+Copy the output to `server/.env`.
+
+### Option B: Manual (UI)
+
+1. Create API token at http://localhost:8889 → Settings → API Tokens
+2. Update `server/.env`: `HATCHET_CLIENT_TOKEN=<new-token>`
+
+### Then restart workers
+
+```bash
+docker compose restart server hatchet-worker
+```
+
+Workflows register automatically when hatchet-worker starts.

+Hatchet child workflow: TrackProcessing
+
+Handles individual audio track processing: padding and transcription.
+Spawned dynamically by the main diarization pipeline for each track.
+
+Architecture note: This is a separate workflow (not inline tasks in DiarizationPipeline)
+because Hatchet workflow DAGs are defined statically, but the number of tracks varies
+at runtime. Child workflow spawning via `aio_run()` + `asyncio.gather()` is the
+standard pattern for dynamic fan-out. See `process_tracks` in diarization_pipeline.py.
+
+Note: This file uses deferred imports (inside tasks) intentionally.
+Hatchet workers run in forked processes; fresh imports per task ensure
+storage/DB connections are not shared across forks.
