Cold loads after the cache drop measured 17 minutes on 2026-08-13, longer
than the previous 600s wait. HEALTH_WAIT[dankclaw]=600 iterations (20 min),
dankserver stays at 300 (10 min). AGENTS.md: update cold-load figure.
- deployment.md: document the sudoers NOPASSWD restart helpers on both
targets, the exact-argument matching quirk, and the 2026-08-13
'premature job release' investigation (server never preempts; aborts
were client-side; Dankserver crashed twice under researcher load).
- DFlash/DSpark doc: MTP requires MTP tensors in the target GGUF; the
HauhauCS Qwen3.6-27B GGUF has none (verified tensor listing); MTP-only
draft GGUFs (a4lg/lym00) pair via --spec-draft-model; flag rename
--spec-type mtp -> draft-mtp in b9180.
- AGENTS.md: operational quirks for the helpers, journal abort-vs-release
signature, and the Dankserver cublasSgemm crash signature.
Deterministic deployment instead of agent ritual:
- DROP_CACHES per target (dankclaw=1): runs 'sync; echo 3 >
/proc/sys/vm/drop_caches' before systemctl restart. Without it the
model load stalls at 28 GiB VRAM when the model pages are cached.
- FRANK_SUDO_PW env var: remote sudo pipes it via 'sudo -S' so the
script runs headless. Falls back to plain sudo otherwise.
- Health check runs curl on the target over ssh (127.0.0.1:7770 was
previously checked from the workstation, which can never see it).
Retire vllm-awq-qwen36 (AWQ) from target maps, README, deployment, KB index,
Dankserver specs, DFlash and FP8 docs. New dankserver runtime: upstream
llama.cpp, port 7770, alias frank-default-small, 3x262144 ctx, DFlash Q8_0
draft, MoE experts offloaded to CPU, attention+KV on GPU (K q8_0, V f16).
deploy.sh now maps dankserver to frank-default-small and symlinks its unit.
models.json: dankserver baseUrl -> :7770, contextWindow -> 262144.
Update target maps (AGENTS, README, deployment, deploy.sh) from the retired
ROCmFPX llama.cpp stack to the active vLLM-ROCm CIRU INT4 service on port 7770
with MTP speculative decoding. Align Dankserver to the running
vllm-awq-qwen36 (AWQ, port 34401). Refresh KB pages: Dankclaw system specs
(gpu-mem-util 0.95, CIRU venv), quantization choices (INT4 primary, MXFP4
experiment), DFlash/DSpark Dankclaw section, and the KB index topology.
- scripts/deploy.sh: target-aware deploy (dankclaw/dankserver). Pushes main,
pulls on the target, installs/enables systemd unit, restarts service, and
checks the health endpoint; --dry-run preview; pre-flight dirty-tree check
- docs/deployment.md: full deployment/update process with mermaid workflow,
target map, manual update commands, service units, and troubleshooting
- AGENTS.md: add Deployment & Update Process section (deploy.sh usage, target
map, mermaid workflow) and a Summary table row
- docs/index.md: crosslink deployment doc
