I apologize in advance if this is the wrong place for this question about the AI plugin rake tasks.

I can run rake tasks (without `bundle exec`) in the Discourse app container no problem, but the AI tasks don’t work. Without `bundle exec`, the AI embedding backfill fails due to a missing ruby-progressbar. With `bundle exec` it fails due to not having a database connection.

Any pointers on how to fix this?
