test(frank-medium): A/B DFlash2 vs MTP on FP8 — DFlash2 wins on decode
...
DFlash2 (100.0 t/s decode, 287.1 t/s burst-4) beats MTP self-speculation
(85.9 t/s, 179.7 t/s) despite a lower accept length (4.24 vs 5.66): the
small separate drafter steps faster than the target's own MTP layer applied
autoregressively. DFlash2 is the deployed shape; both swap-script paths now
default to dflash/7. Docs updated.

feat(frank-medium): swap MXFP4 -> FP8; add the one-command swap toolchain
...
Checkpoint: just1moremodel/Qwen3.8-27B-Uncensored-MXFP4-awq ->
orcarouter/Qwen3.8-27B-Uncensored-FP8 (FP8 E4M3 block-wise, 30.9 GB / 7
shards, its own single-layer MTP head). The quantization-aware entrypoint
serves the plain FP8 path: --quantization fp8, ROCM_AITER_UNIFIED_ATTN, MTP
self-speculation (SPEC_METHOD=mtp, SPEC=8). Measured: MTP mean accept 5.66/8
(66.2% draft acceptance), KV pool auto-sized to 461,540 tokens (1.76x),
battery 85.9 t/s decode / 0.06 s TTFT / 179.7 burst-4 (vs MXFP4 92.4/0.22/
248.9). MXFP4 checkpoint stays on disk as the rollback target.
Streamlining: scripts/hf-manifest.py (generate a <filename> <size> <sha256>
manifest from the live repo tree), scripts/hf-fetch.sh (resumable, byte +
sha256 verified, idempotent fetch), scripts/swap-frank-medium.sh (generate
manifest -> download -> detect quantization -> edit the quadlet -> deploy).
Docs: new frank-medium-model-swap runbook; radiance runbook, both indexes,
AGENTS.md, and log.md flipped to the FP8 shape.
