The panel title carries a right-aligned 'AI guide ->' link to
/docs#models (the running-models section), at the point of use.
Bare mode recolors the link; layout is flex baseline, doctrine-minimal.
Seam: homepage_config.bats 6/6; headless smoke census + screenshot.
- Icons: Copyparty -> improvised amber folder, Marreta -> crumbling
wall (bricks + red crack), Calibre-Web -> book, OpenWebUI -> official
logo.png from openwebui.com, Seerr -> official seerr.dev
os_logo_filled.svg.
- Tiles with an open link are clickable whole (.panel.clickable: hover
lift + glow; inner link clicks pass through).
- Any DOWN panel (app tile or model card) gets a red gradient wash and a
slow pulsing glow (.panel.down, .mi-card:has(.badge.down)).
- docs / admin / account-settings buttons moved from the footer to the
header (nav.top-links); footer keeps the deployment stamp.
- Zealot compaction advice promoted from the Use paragraph to a bordered
glowing model.compaction callout (.mi-comp); component seam pinned to
the new field.
- Every app card carries hex-clipped art: 19 amber-tinted brand marks
from the Simple Icons CDN plus 19 improvised monogram SVGs, wired via
a per-service "art" field; homepage_config.bats pins art presence for
all 32 apps.
- Model cards render zealot -> dragoon -> archon (registry order pinned
in the seam).
- Dragoon and zealot share one common uncensored legal warning (adult
content, harmful/hateful/illegal descriptions, sensitive offensive
cybersecurity topics, severe legal risk, "don't ruin this server for
everybody"), hover label on card and docs.
- Archon gets a bordered red permission callout: ask Frank before use.
- SearXNG obfuscation-not-anonymity note moved to a card-level hover
warning (.svc-warn) and a docs hover note.
- Gitea: self-service signup flow; no need to ask Frank.
- Footer docs/admin/account-settings become glowing bordered buttons;
the admin button is shown only to homepage-admins members via a new
Caddy /whoami endpoint echoing the outpost-injected X-Authentik-*
headers (spoof-proof; the /admin* 403 stays the real gate). e2e pins
both sides.
- Docs naming swept: Protoss names primary, bracketed api ids, explicit
note that a future switchover renames the ids themselves.
The Protoss model cards render as .mi-name inside one full-width panel;
the panel-name census now counts both render styles, keeping services.json
the single source of truth.
The model cards become the StarCraft trio: frank-large -> frank-dragoon,
frank-primary -> frank-archon, frank-secondary -> frank-zealot (family
names only; endpoint/API ids unchanged). The three cards fuse into one
Model Information component: per-unit Protoss accent colours and hex-
clipped unit art, 15px type, clickable StarCraft unit-voice quotations
(original .ogg files from the fandom wiki, served from /sfx/), supervision
notes (dragoon/archon safe for autonomous use, zealot tight supervision),
compaction-model recommendation for frank-zealot, and uncensored-model
legal notes rendered as hover tooltips instead of wall text. docs.html
carries the same renames plus api-id mapping.
App-card updates: Seerr, Calibre-Web, RomM, Jellyfin set to WIP: DOWN
with Open links removed (new wip "down" badge state); Copyparty notes it
serves all other media apps content including WIP apps; Gitea and Plex
noted as needing logins separate from SSO; SearXNG noted as obfuscated,
not anonymous (upstream API keys tie to Frank).
Plumbing: Caddy @data allowlist grew /sfx/*; deploy_homepage copies sfx/;
homepage_config.bats pins the new probe names, the component fields,
art/voice-file presence, and the wip-down schema.
Every fleet model card (and the #models docs section) now states, in
plain family-facing terms, what the model is equivalent to:
frank-large ~ Claude Sonnet 5 / OpenAI-Luna, frank-primary ~ Claude
Opus 4.8 / OpenAI-Terra (both Summer 2026 frontier), frank-secondary ~
last year (2025) frontier. Rendered as a new details.equiv line
(desc-equiv, styled in the head color, bare-mode clean); pinned in
homepage_config.bats.
The harness clamps max_tokens to min(45056, contextWindow - est - 4096),
its chars/4 est under-counts the rendered prompt by ~3 % (measured:
152,938 -> 157,388 and 158,906 -> 165,301), and compaction fires only at
85 % -- so with window == engine ceiling 200192, every request in the
est ~146k-184k zone was a guaranteed 400. HALOGEN_CTX=262144 (native) +
KV pool 524288; harness window 217088 = ceiling - 45k absorbs the
estimate error (worst-case request ~219k <= 262144). models.yml updated
out-of-repo: contextWindow 217088, maxTokens 45056.
The @data path allowlist on the post-auth listener did not include /img/*,
so docs screenshots fell through to the index.html catch-all and the
browser got 200 text/html for every PNG (docs images broken live
2026-10-08). Pinned by the homepage_caddy seam.
- style.css: green phosphor -> amber CRT-AMBIOS palette; docs styles for
screenshots, code blocks, key warning (full + bare mode)
- index/admin/docs: VT323 from the Google Fonts CDN
- docs.html: rewrite #chat/#models for the live fleet (flash-server v2,
radiance native FP8, Qwen3.5-9B Q6_K); new #api-access with OpenWebUI
key walkthrough + Opencode and Pi configs; three OpenWebUI screenshots
- services.json: AI card details match the current fleet
- deploy-remote.sh: ship shared/homepage/img/ to /srv/homepage/
- docs: Homepage.md theme wave + OpenWebUI.md picker access-control law
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).
OpenWebUI model picker narrowed to exactly frank-secondary (connections
frank-large/frank-primary disabled in openai.api_configs, model table rebuilt,
stale frank-small model_id retargeted to the served alias). Documented the
auth-gated API surface (anonymous probes all 401; keys per account).
Authentik roster gains artem (pk 16) in the human-user template.
kassie (pk 14) and alex (pk 15, deleted pk 7 then recreated) now share the
ridley shape: <user>@franksdank.cloud + Non-Admin Users + jellyfin_users +
openwebui_users. Audit before destroy: the old alex row carried no MFA
device, token, entitlement, or proxy session - checked across the MFA
device tables, authentik_core_token, and providers_proxy_proxysession
(the fleet's column names differ from the ORM names: events.user is
denormalized JSON, certificatekeypair has no user_id). Events survive the
delete, so the audit trail keeps its shape.

Deploy verified: nvidia-smi 21,436 MiB used / 2,689 free at ubatch 2048 -
the MiMo-priced projection (~21,430/~2,700) landed within 11 MiB, and the
verbosity-4 ledger confirms the KV law to the MiB (CUDA0 KV buffer
12,544.00 MiB = K(f16) 6,272 + V(f16) 6,272 = 32 KiB/token over the
401,408 pool), compute buffers 1,136 MiB CUDA0 + 848 MiB host, mmproj
879 + 248 MiB. Playwright gate: 33 passed.
Two lessons recorded: the 203/EXEC boot loop my shebang-less rewrite
caused (journal signature + the head -1 check), and that llama.cpp's
"n_ctx_seq < n_ctx_train" line is informational when the context is BELOW
the trained window - the Gemma4 drafter warning was the opposite case.
The unit's Description named the Swift-1.5 era (and said 2x131072/q8_0/
draft-mtp); it now names the Q6_K shape. Cosmetic, so it is NOT deployed
as its own restart: the next frank-secondary deploy relinks it.

Capacity trade: the 9B dense-hybrid (qwen35: 32 layers = 8 full-attention
+ 24 Gated DeltaNet, 4 KV heads x 256 dim, native 262,144, MTP-less,
natively multimodal) costs ~7 GiB of weights where the 26B MoE cost
~16.6 GiB. The freed room buys back the second conversation slot and
exact KV: --ctx-size 401408 --parallel 2 (two 200,704 windows), f16 K +
f16 V, MTP off (the file carries no nextn/mtp tensors - flag-only enable
is impossible), vision via the publisher's BF16 mmproj, ubatch 1024
(the CUDA decode-optimal value), verbosity 4, publisher sampler recipe
(0.6/0.95/20/0) in models.yml.
Hosts with the MiMo-V2.6-Distill Q6_K boots at this geometry: 21,276 MiB
used / 2,849 free at ubatch 1024, 40,960 tokens of fp16 KV at ubatch
2048. Compaction stays routed here; window math is unchanged (maxTokens
16,384 keeps the worst-case harness request inside the slot).
Gemma4 payload (Q4_K_M + mmproj + MTP assistant) stays on disk as the
rollback; its runbook is retired in place, keeping the attention_k_eq_v
pair-billing law.
Co-Authored-By: omp <omp@franksdank.cloud>
Verbosity 4 paid for itself: the engine's own llama_kv_cache lines give the
exact accounting — the cache bills the K+V pair TWICE under attention_k_eq_v
(6.125 B/elem at f16 K + q8_0 V), reproducing 3,001.25 MiB (5 full layers at
n_head_kv 2) + 306.25 MiB (25 SWA rings at n_head_kv 8, window 1024) to the
byte. The earlier "bill K-only" note was wrong; full layers have 2 KV heads,
not 8.
Deployed boot: 21,868 used / 2,257 free — the f16-K raise (+2,161 MiB KV) is
funded by the ubatch 2048 -> 1024 cut (~616 MiB of compute buffer) plus
variance, so exact K came essentially free. Measured decode 139.9 t/s temp 0;
vision probe returns Red at prompt_tokens 151.
Payload: HauhauCS/Gemma4-26B-A4B-QAT-Uncensored Q4_K_M (16,796,015,520 B)
+ the publisher's BF16 mmproj, /home/dank/models/Gemma4-26B-A4B/.
Shape: ONE 200,704-token slot (--parallel 1; 2x200,704 does not fit the
24 GiB card), f16 K + q8_0 V under flash attention, batch 4096 / ubatch
1024, --log-verbosity 4, MTP OFF (the gemma4-assistant file is on disk,
not loaded: its draft KV is built against the target's full window,
measured +1.9 GiB -> 23,806/319 free, no margin beside the f16-K raise).
Measured boots (nvidia-smi): q8_0 K + q8_0 V / ubatch 2048 / MTP off =
21,890 used / 2,235 free; with the MTP assistant = 23,806 / 319.
Engine facts recorded: gemma4 hybrid attention (25 sliding-window + 5
full-attention layers) so KV scales with 5 layers only, and
attention_k_eq_v is honoured by build 5fc4f3c (pool bills K-only; the
measured q8_0 pool = 2.05 GiB = the K-only figure).
Serve script gained VERBOSITY (+ --log-verbosity in the argv), the
SPEC_DRAFT_FILE drafter path, and defaults/lore retargeted to Gemma4.
deploy-remote.sh payload gates follow the env. The frank-secondary bats
seam is rewritten for the new contract (argv-based) and fixes a
pre-existing vacuity: serve_argv regenerates the test env, so
mutations made before it were silently undone - tests that mutate now
exec through run_stage. frank-secondary is the fleet compaction hub
(200,704 is the only window that fits a worst-case compaction input).
The KLD engine exited clean with the record complete (kld.json rows:
50235, 24 GiB, 5 files), but the wrapper died rc=127: a mid-run scp of
the calib-shape edit shifted bash's lazy-read offset — the fleet's own
script-swap law, biting on the same class as the autoresearch collision.
Resume path: SKIP_KLD=1 verifies the receipt (rows + size + files) and
goes straight to calib. Never scp a script a running process owns.
