frank-primary: qwen cutover docs + deployer identity + seam re-pin

- AGENTS.md: fleet table + frank-primary section back to qwen FP8 + MTP4
  (37.4-40.6 tok/s, 54% acceptance); GLM runbook moved to the retired index.
- runbook: RETIRED verdict — DFlash2 drafter served and drafted but
  acceptance pinned 1.00-1.38 on every text class including verbatim
  repetition (mis-wired aux capture, not a weak drafter); 5x slower than
  baseline at ~1.2 acceptance.
- log.md: 2026-10-01 rollback entry.
- deploy-remote.sh: LLM_PRIMARY_CONTAINER back to frank-primary-qwen;
  glm-probe joins the legacy sweep list.
- frank_primary_unit.bats: re-pinned to the qwen shape — KV qualification
  law (7.2 GiB/rank, 3.65x concurrency; 9/16 GiB OOM), fp8 q8/q8 KV
  PRESENT, MTP4 PRESENT (3.1-3.4x over the 12.11 no-spec baseline), no tool
  dialect, automatic offload. The old 'MTP buys zero' law carried the
  prefetch tax and is retired.

# frank-primary — GLM-5.3-Flash W4A16 int4 (tcclaviger, 2x R9700)
> **RETIRED 2026-10-01.** Cutover reversed to Qwen3.8-Flash-Next-Uncensored-FP8
> + MTP4 (commit `2339fae` trio). The DFlash2 drafter experiment is a
> **failure**: after five patches the drafter served and drafted (12.8 tok/s

# Bundle Change Log
## 2026-10-01
- **frank-primary rolled BACK to Qwen3.8-Flash-Next-Uncensored-FP8 + MTP4;
GLM/DFlash2 declared failed and purged.** The DFlash2 drafter booted and
served (window 6j, 65,536 ctx, `glm53-flash` on :7773, both TP ranks
captured FULL dflash2 cuda graphs — five patches deep: EAGLE3 wrapper
interface v5, KV unifier MLA-multiple, kpool tailpin, glm5 KV pool with
draft+hidden groups, registry method-signal), but **acceptance pinned at
1.00-1.38 on every text class INCLUDING verbatim repetition** — a mis-wired
aux-hidden-state capture, not a weak drafter. At ~1.2 acceptance the
8-token verify tax put decode at 1.6-1.8 tok/s vs the 9.9-10.0 baseline
(5x slower). Frank's independently reported 18 tok/s / ~370 prefill did
not originate from this engine (APIServer access log: every completion
POST was host-local; his workstation appears once, a /v1/models GET).
Restored the verified 37.4-40.6 tok/s arm from the `2339fae` trio
(200k x 3 seqs, fp8 KV, prefetch off); GLM payload (170 GiB) + drafter
(2.2 GiB) + scratch staged to `/home/dank/.AGENTTRASH/20261001-glm-purge/`.
KV-cache patches 02/03/04/04b survive in `scripts/patches/` (generic
unifier/tailpin/grouping/registry fixes, apply-verified).
## 2026-09-30
- **frank-primary cut over to GLM-5.3-Flash W4A16 int4 — it serves, but NOT at
the 35 tok/s target, and the shortfall is measured rather than inferred.**
