- Restore the pre-2026-08-17 Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-Uncensored-HauhauCS-Aggressive
Q6_K_P + ngram-mod setup as frank-default-small on Dankserver (port 7770,
upstream llama.cpp b10121, MoE experts on CPU via --n-cpu-moe 36).
- Rename the CIRU Qwen3.8-27B ActiveFPX setup from frank-default-small to
frank-default-large (Dankclaw, port 52625); bump to CTX_SIZE=262144
(native max) and PARALLEL=2 (96 GiB unified pool).
- Retire the Qwen3.8-27B IQ4_XS FastMTP frank-default-large (Dankserver) to
.AGENTTRASH.
- deploy.sh: SERVICE[dankserver]=frank-default-small,
SERVICE[dankclaw]=frank-default-large; HEALTH_WAIT[dankserver]=600.
Retire the vLLM service (frank-default-small, port 52625) on Dankclaw
and serve jcbtc/Qwen3.8-27B-CIRU-ActiveFPX-PromptForge through the CIRU
ROCmFPX llama.cpp runtime instead.
- Build llama-server from ciru-ai/ROCmFPX tag
qwen3.8-activefpx-promptforge-v2.3 (commit 103af8b41) against the
private TheRock ROCm 7.15 SDK in the retired ling3-ciru venv. The
model card requires ROCm 7.15 for the advertised Strix Halo
performance; the system ROCm 7.2.4 selects slower kernels.
CK pinned at fdf4bb7fcc984811cef48ce817d89aac064b984a; generated
ck/config.h + ck/version.h copied into the CK source tree so the
ggml-hip build can include them. LLAMA_BUILD_WEBUI=OFF (HF bucket
llama-ui returns 404; server is consumed via the OpenAI API).
- New scripts/serve-frank-small.sh + frank-default-small.env: 64K ctx,
one slot, f16 KV, context checkpoints, prompt cache, native depth-4
MTP on ROCm0, PromptForge DualView sidecars (FFN + GDN), temp 0.7
top-p 0.95, reasoning off. LD_LIBRARY_PATH puts the 7.15 SDK libs
before any system ROCm.
- Update the systemd unit description (same service name and port).
- deploy.sh: update the dankclaw target comment.
- Docs: new docs/ciru-activefpx-promptforge.md with the build runbook;
update docs/index.md and AGENTS.md topology.
- The vLLM venvs (vllm-venv, vllm-vk-venv) were moved to
/home/dank/.AGENTTRASH/ on the target; the vllm-vulkan plugin and
docs were removed from the repo in an earlier commit.
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.
The helper scripts (/usr/local/sbin/frank-restart-<large|small>.sh)
cover unit symlink, cache drop (dankclaw), daemon-reload, and restart
in one root-owned script, run via sudoers NOPASSWD. deploy.sh now uses
the helper when present and falls back to inline sudo commands.
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
