The 2026-10-09 wire aliases become the service names everywhere:
systemd units, serve scripts, env files and FRANK_* variables,
deploy-plan/deploy-remote service keys, container names, Prometheus
job names + alert rules, Grafana dashboard queries, bats seams,
runbook filenames, homepage/AGENTS lore, and historical prose.
Rollback tags renamed in lockstep. Residue in the tree: zero.
Retired frank-medium/small/npu names are history and stay.
Known casualty: scripts/patches/*.patch context lines were rewritten;
those retired-era vLLM-fork patches no longer apply byte-exact.
rad_arch_declare rejects the split tier (down block-fp8 + gate_up w4): the
qwen4exp_fp8 kernel serves one encoding per expert table (w4nl64a8h) with only
whole bf16 experts beside it. Recipe now sends gate_up AND down through the
GPTQ w4 rule (down calibrated by the Grams, gate_up uncalibrated), drops the
down-fp8 rule, and lowers the size floor 126000->108000 MiB for the ~19 GiB
lighter container. Convert script: checkpoint lives under models/ukisai/, and
the in-container path must keep the subdir (basename stripped it).
apply-protected-cast.sh splices derive-protected-experts.py output into
the recipe's PROTECTED-BEGIN/END section (refuses to re-derive, trashes
the pre-edit recipe). kld-gate-swift15.sh boots the candidate on the
serving pin in --kld-ref mode (pool fully resident, no disk tier) and
enforces mean KL<=0.03 / top-1>=95% from the JSON report.
- download-frank-primary-swift15.sh: ukisai/Swift1.5-Qwen3.8-Flash-Next
(BF16, 131 shards + index + configs, 360037355038 B = 335.3 GiB, ungated)
via the vendored hfget.sh; verify = listed sizes + 131-shard weight-map
count + every shard's sha256 against the Hub LFS oid. Pattern cloned
from scripts/download-frank-primary.sh.
- qwen4exp-swift15-w4dn8-i8-hc8m.recipe: routed experts with DOWN at
block-fp8 (rtn codes=fp8_e4m3 block=128x128 scale=bf16, the served
FP8-native tile form; moe_gemm_fp8a8 reads it; minicpm5-2b is the
shipped bf16->fp8a8 precedent) and gate_up at w4nl64 GPTQ cd=3;
hc/MTP-fc fp8, trunk i8, lm_head i8, PLE fixed scale, draft_head u2
(inert). Protected-expert cast lines carry the BASE checkpoint's names
as a warm start; the derivation step rewrites them from Swift's own
calibration recording before the recipe is ever run (law documented
in the file).
