The parallel session's uncommitted swap, committed at Frank's direction
(commit whatever's in the working tree):
- llama.cpp master on the RTX 3090 now serves ukisai's
Swift-1.5-Qwen3.8-27B GSQ-RCO IQ3_S WITH the in-file MTP head, ONE
131,072-token slot at Frank's 128k cap, q8_0 K + q8_0 V, vision through
the base-model projector; MiMo-V2.6 Q6_K (2x200704 f16 KV) retired to
rollback target.
- env/serve/download + seam twins updated together (deployer payload gates
rode the previous commit's deploy-remote.sh).
- docs: new swift15 runbook; MiMo Q6K runbook retired; AGENTS.md topology
and both vault indexes follow (root index ACTIVE/RETIRED flip, test 135
seam green).
- comfyui: two qwen-image t2i workflow drops under dankclaw/comfyui/
workflows/ (12 KiB).
Replace the FreeToken PR587 endpoint (single-GPU: its TP=2 dies in the
pynccl.cu ROCm JIT) with the radiance engine on both R9700s, TP=2 via
libr4d's fused one-shot all-reduce. Official Qwen/Qwen3.8-Flash-Next-FP8
payload at native block-FP8 precision:
- scripts/build-frank-primary-rad.sh: staging (quantization_config drop =
plugin SELECTION law) -> checkpoint reshape -> rad-convert with ONE
--quant rule (PLE rtn fixed-scale); plan-only first.
- scripts/stack-qwen38-official-fp8.py: the two value-preserving reshapes
(experts byte-stacked into the plugin's stacked layout; PLE's 128
scaleless fp8 shards decoded to one bf16 shard with the checkpoint's own
scale; the rtn rule re-encodes at that same scale - codes round-trip
exactly and land the one-element scale plane the plugin declares).
- scripts/hfget.sh + verified download (131/131 shards sha256-match).
- froggeric v22.5 chat template vendored (--override-chat-template).
- serve script (pinned ledger: 2x40 GiB pools + 47.7 GiB PLE + prefix host),
TTM preflight fixed for kernels with pages_limit only (no pages_max -
an absent knob is skipped, not read as zero); pages_limit raised to
52,428,800 pages = 200 GiB on the host pre-cutover.
- root unit, relinked; deployer gates image digest + .rad floor 158,000 MiB
+ health; prometheus re-adds the /metrics job.
- rollback: tag frank-primary-freetoken-pr587-20261005 (FreeToken trio +
Dockerfile); payload + image stay on disk until the window closes.
deploy-remote.sh also carries the parallel session's frank-small payload
gates (swift15) - committed here per Frank's direction to commit the tree.
FreeToken has no /metrics endpoint — the job scraped 404s forever, a
structural never-green, not an outage (the Lucebox DS4.1 precedent). The
LlmEndpointDown alert regex self-adjusts (frank-.* matches existing series
only). Comments updated; seam now asserts frank-primary's absence. If
FreeToken grows /metrics, re-add the job.
FreeToken's /health returns 200 with {"status":"loading"} while the
engine loads — the FastAPI front end binds before the scheduler is up.
Measured 2026-10-06: the deploy gate went green after 6s while 131 shards
were still paging in (vLLM 503'd during load, which made the bare curl
honest there). The frank-primary gate now loops until status:ok; the
MainPID stray-port guard is unchanged.
Measured first boot: the auto attention backend is qsa_sparse, which
overrides page size to 64 and refuses --num-tokens 300000 ('nearest valid
values: 299968 or 300032'). 299,968 x 24 KiB = 7.0 GiB still clears the
177,356-token harness worst case and one native 262,144 conversation.
Replaces the tcclaviger vLLM fork with FreeToken at PR #587 head 77a7201
built on dankserver into localhost/frank-primary-freetoken:pr587-77a7201
(scripts/docker/frank-primary-freetoken.Dockerfile: digest-pinned
rocm/pytorch rocm7.14 torch-2.11.0 base, libhiprtc dev symlink, curated
--no-deps install per docs/install_amd.md).
Shape (first-boot conservative): ONE R9700 (second card idle;
--tensor-parallel-size exists for future 2-card tuning), KV pool
--num-tokens 300000 (7.2 GiB at 24 KiB/token; clears the 177,356-token
harness worst case and one native 262,144 conversation), MoE LRU
--moe-cache-rate 0.10, --max-running-requests 2, --max-output-tokens
36864. Parsers AUTO: thinking -> reasoning_content natively (models.yml
flips reasoningContentField on the harness side). Experts + PLE pin
~170 GiB host RAM — root unit keeps LimitMEMLOCK=infinity.
Container identity renamed to the unit name (Frank's call): frank-primary;
vLLM-era frank-primary-qwen joins the legacy cleanup list. Deployer image
gate becomes podman image exists (a local build carries no RepoDigests;
the old digest grep refused exactly this shape). Rollback tag:
frank-primary-vllm-shapeG-20261003.
- FROM pinned to sha256:a223aee1... (the pulled rocm/pytorch rocm7.14
pytorch 2.11.0 manifest); a re-pushed tag cannot change the stack.
- The pip-ROCm torch ships libhiprtc.so.7 only; the PR's _cpu_moe links
-lhiprtc and ld needs the unversioned symlink in the already-linked
_rocm_sdk_core/lib (first build died: cannot find -lhiprtc).
The parallel session's stash pop left GGUF Compatibility, Multi-Device
Splits, Serving Sizing, PCIe Link and Atomics, RDNA4 Container Serving,
vLLM Porting triage and RDNA4 MoE Budget unindexed and carrying 9
unresolved wikilinks (LLM Bench Windows / Model Swap / AGENTS targets
that never existed, a [[nodiscard]] C++ attribute parsed as a wiki link,
and two multi-line-wrapped link tokens). All repointed to real pages;
six rows added to the vault index; seam green.
1862dc3 repriced the Ornith rung (nine full-attn layers: f16/f16 = dead
boot) and flipped CACHE_TYPE_V to q8_0, but its note that the seam was
'retargeted in 8f53df7' covered only the payload paths — the KV test
still asserted the 2026-10-03 unquantized-both-halves contract and held
the suite red. Test now pins the shipped contract: K=f16, V=q8_0,
flash-attn on.
The default-project-set rewrite dropped non---project args (e.g. --list),
so 'run.sh --list' silently RAN the whole suite instead of listing.
Args now ride alongside the default set; an explicit --project still
takes over. Verified: default --list = 33 tests listed; opt-in --list =
34 with the frankbook walk.
The rogue session's swap left this env reprice uncommitted in the tree
(2026-10-05): Ornith is a 33-block qwen35 hybrid with NINE full-attn
layers (18 KiB/token/half), +1,900 MiB of weights vs MiMo Q6_K — f16/f16
lands ~379 MiB free, a dead boot; pool-stepping cannot rescue it because
the compaction invariant needs slot >= 191,148. The only lever that
keeps 2 x 200,704 AND the 2-3 GiB floor is q8_0 V (~2.87 GiB free). K
stays f16. Deployer gate + seam already retargeted in 8f53df7; fetch
script manifest already flipped in 3ee88d7. MEASURE after boot; under
1.5 GiB free, UBATCH_SIZE down to 1024, never the window.
The 17:47 Ornith-1.5-9B swap (77decb5) updated frank-small.env and
serve-frank-small.sh but left two consumers on the MiMo-Q6K paths:
deploy-remote.sh's LLM_SMALL_MODEL_FILE/LLM_SMALL_MMPROJ defaults (the
payload-existence gate checked files the unit no longer loads) and
frank_small_unit.bats (stubs + env assertion), which held the whole
bats suite red. Both now point at the Ornith-Q8 payload; docs updated
with the conditional frankbook e2e project.
The rogue session's Ornith commits (3ee88d7/77decb5) swapped the env and
fetch script but left the deploy handler gates and the seam asserting
the MiMo-Q6K paths — the seam failures 195-203 and a deploy that gates
a file the unit no longer reads. Flip both to Ornith-Q8 (Q8_0 GGUF +
BF16 mmproj), keeping the anti-drift twin structure intact.
The 11-admin spec walked links that terminate on FrankBook-Pro
(192.168.0.112), which sleeps when idle — every deploy gate timed out
there (measured 2026-10-05, two deploy windows). Split: the frankbook
links move to tests/e2e/specs/19-frankbook.spec.ts under a frankbook
project that run.sh excludes by default and deploy.sh triggers ONLY
when a frankbook blast-radius path changed (the spec, frankbook-pro/,
the homepage registry, the Caddyfile arr vhosts). deploy.sh computes
the trigger from the same BASE..HEAD revision range the plan uses.
The first constants were wrong in three ways, found while resuming the
checkpoint (the file was COMPLETE; the manifest was not):
- checkpoint is 35,865,565,184 B / LFS sha256 274c3fc7... (not
35,880,329,102 / 40874e7a...), 1352 tensors per the card;
- the tokenizer is a FLAT tokenizer/ DIRECTORY of 5 files mounted whole
at /tokenizer (model-card docker-run parity; the engine's
HALOGEN_TOKENIZER default is the directory) — there is no
frank-large.tokenizer.gguf;
- plain git blobs (vocab/merges/jinja/config) carry no LFS oid, so the
fetch script size-checks them and sha-verifies only the two LFS
objects (checkpoint, tokenizer.json).
Gates flipped together (serve + deployer twins): tokenizer dir must be a
real directory and every named file a regular file, no symlinks (HF
snapshot links dangle in the mount). Fetch made idempotent: a file at
the published size skips the transfer (resuming it is a CDN 416 under
set -e). Seam rewritten to the same contract, 17/17.
curl drops the Range header across the HF /resolve/ 302, so '-C -'
against the resolve URL pulls the 1 KB redirect body and exits 0 with
the file still 14 MiB short (measured 2026-10-05). Resolve the
effective URL first; the Xet CDN honors Range.
Runtime swap ROCmFPX llama.cpp -> peonist-ai/halogen (image digest
dc0a39a0, tag 0.1.4), serving qwen3.8-27b-p1w4d-d2.hgn (33.4 GiB, the
.hgn format loads in no other engine) with HALOGEN_DRAFTER=2 (DFlash2)
on ONE slot of 200700 ctx: slots>1 disables the drafter (engine law).
Accepted: TEXT-ONLY (vision encoder ignored; frank-small owns images)
and the censored base (rollback = revert this commit; payload, fork
build and build-rocmfpx.sh pin stay on disk).
- serve script: podman run under the root unit, exec podman wait so
Restart=always is real; gates image digest, checkpoint byte-count,
flat regular-file tokenizer, GPU nodes; engine stdout to log.
- deploy handler: gates the artifacts, sweeps the legacy bare
llama-server + old container name by NAME (never pkill llama-server:
frank-small), retires the 2026-09 quadlet, port cutover 7770.
- fetch script: -C - resume, -f, byte count, sha256, --verify-only.
- seam rewritten (17 tests): halogen is now the deployed runtime.
Both indexes stated the pre-doubling VRAM as current. Now 2,279 MiB free with
the 4096/2048 pair named, so no index contradicts the runbook it links to.
The AGENTS.md lesson "`--ubatch-size` has an OPTIMUM on this stack" was load-
bearing and over-general: it was measured on the 2x R9700 layer split, and the
same knob on the CUDA 3090 behaves the opposite way (curve climbs monotonically
to 2048). That difference is now the reason frank-small ships ubatch 2048, so
the lesson names the backend it was measured on and points at the counterpoint.
Adds the 2026-10-05 boot-pair A/B to the runbook (+4.6 % prefill at 8,928
tokens for 616 MiB, decode flat, the sub-ubatch prompt as the control), marks
the superseded 21,276/2,849 VRAM row, and logs the day. The old "ubatch 2048
failed the scratch boot" line stays visible as what it was: a predecessor-shape
observation, not a law.
BATCH_SIZE 2048 -> 4096, UBATCH_SIZE 1024 -> 2048.
Why the ubatch move is right on THIS card: the prefill curve is
card-specific. On the 2x R9700 layer-split sibling it peaks at ubatch 512
and every step up costs GiB for no speed; on this CUDA 3090 it climbs
monotonically to 2048 (710 -> 1188 t/s on the 35B MoE sweep, 1944 -> 2423
t/s on the Ornith 8k sweep) with decode flat to under 1 t/s on every rung.
The logical batch is free either way: two sweeps agree that at a fixed
ubatch, 2048/4096/8192 give identical prefill speed and identical peak
VRAM, because the compute buffers are sized by the ubatch alone.
The risk is all in the ubatch, and it is documented rather than assumed:
the step cost ~1,244 MiB of peak graph VRAM on the 35B MoE, the shape this
replaces is 2,815 MiB free, and the Q5_K_M predecessor recorded "ubatch
2048 failed the scratch boot" with MORE free than that. Compute buffers
are allocated at graph capture during boot, so a failure is loud and fast;
the step-down rungs (4096/1536, then 4096/1024) are named in the env.
The seam stops hard-coding a rung: serve_argv now carries BATCH_SIZE and
UBATCH_SIZE the way it already carried CTX_SIZE et al., and the pair test
asserts the argv follows the shipped env plus the llama.cpp invariant
ubatch <= batch. Verified both ways: retuning the env to 8192/4096 keeps
the seam green, inverting the pair to 2048/4096 turns it red.
rad-convert --plan-only with the deployed orcarouter FP8 payload:
'no architecture plugin claims qwen4exp at quantisation fp8; served at
(unquantised)'. Our quantization is reproducible from a bf16/abliterated
source by recipe (libr4d reads fp8 experts), not from our file. Image
pulled on dankserver, no GPU touched.
The prefix-caching OFF/ON experiment was confounded (both arms ran on
the marginal speed); the align-mode re-seed theory is unproven, not
disproven. Caching ships ON with zero gdn_hip faults under heavy
re-send traffic on stable RAM; knob stays commented. Corrects the
env's 'RAM RULED OUT' claim and adds the AGENTS.md lesson.
Frank: still corrupted at ~40k with --no-enable-prefix-caching deployed
and mechanically verified (zero gdn_hip faults in the container serving
that window, coherent 40,771-token boundary probe). The recurrence is
FAULT-FREE, so the align-mode page re-seed is not the (only) mechanism
and the mitigation bought whole-history re-prefill per turn for nothing.
Revert: knob FRANK_PRIMARY_NO_PREFIX_CACHING commented out -> the serve
branch renders --enable-prefix-caching (the shipped contract). The knob,
the branch and the seam stay documented for a future fixed fork build.
Open hypotheses recorded in the runbook: re-fed poisoned transcript (the
same conversation cannot distinguish fixed from unfixed), or a second
fault-free long-context path — fp8 KV at depth is the next suspect. Next
diagnostic: fresh-conversation reproduction, then a KV-dtype A/B.
Deploy b820d34, measured: --no-enable-prefix-caching in the engine argv,
health 200, warm boot 76.57 s (compile cache intact), expert plan
unchanged (17.77 GiB / 7,762 slots), GPU KV cache 424,678 tokens (up
from 401,408 at the same byte ask - pool now prices ~7,456 B/token with
the per-block mamba checkpoint pages gone; still clears the 400,700
floor), zero gdn_hip lines, and the 40,771-token boundary probe
(13 x 3136 = 40,768 crossed) decoded the 1-400 count coherently
(0.997 monotone, tail ...398 399 400). e2e 32/33 - the failure is the
admin spec's FrankBook-Pro leg (mini asleep), environmental.
Two bash defects in the 9d8b185 prefix-cache wiring, both measured live
on the 2026-10-05 deploy attempt (unit crash-looped 190x, exit 127,
endpoint down for the whole 3600 s health window):
1. A # comment block inside the backslash-continued podman run
terminates the continuation: the comment swallows the joined line
and the flag line then runs as its own command
('--no-enable-prefix-caching: command not found'). The comment moves
above the run block, with a no-comments-in-chain note.
2. The ${VAR:+A}${VAR:--B} double-expansion is ambiguous: when the
variable is set, ${VAR:--B} parses as a SUBSTRING OFFSET, not the
:- default — measured render was '--no-enable-prefix-caching1'.
The flag is now branched explicitly into
FRANK_PRIMARY_PREFIX_CACHE_FLAG (exactly one of the two flags
reaches the engine; unset keeps the historical flag).
Seam: the render test sources the shipped env through the branch and
asserts the exact flag word the engine receives (render-assert, the
same pattern the spec knobs use). bash -n clean; all 22 frank-primary
seams pass.
Measured 2026-10-04 18:46:07 PDT (live podman logs): 48 gdn_hip state
faults in one 0.6 s burst — 'state out of ssm-cache range: max|S|=0 with
non-finite values (slot=42 head=3|8)', one per TP rank, 23 GDN layers
each — then the process-lifetime report cap. The guard's own text in
this build names it: 'known Qwen3.8-Flash-Next (QFN) flaw under prefix
caching … Mitigation: --no-enable-prefix-caching'.
Mechanism: prefix caching puts QFN on mamba_cache_mode 'align', which
checkpoints each sequence's GDN recurrent state into a mamba page per
3136-token block and re-seeds it from that page when a request resumes
from a cached prefix. The NaN state landed at the 13th boundary
(13 x 3136 = 40,768 — the reported ~40k mark) and persisted in the page:
every later turn of that conversation re-seeded the same non-finite
state for two heads, silently (fault-report cap already spent).
RAM ruled out the same day: zero MCE/EDAC records since the boot under
test, 8 GiB in-band pattern stable under live load, 4800 MT/s is the
JEDEC floor on 5600-rated DIMMs, and the two-head single-slot NaN
signature is a state-path fault, not scattered bit corruption.
Fix: FRANK_PRIMARY_NO_PREFIX_CACHING=1 -> --no-enable-prefix-caching
(flag renders in both directions from the knob). Cost: every turn
re-prefills the whole history instead of at most 3135 tail tokens.
Seam updated: the prefix-cache pin now asserts the conditional render
and the shipped OFF value. Runbook carries the evidence + acceptance
criteria; all 368 tests pass.
The host region was the ONE arena-plan term still autofitting per boot: with
no cap the planner binds it to MemAvailable AT BOOT minus PLE/process/api/
margin terms (boot 2026-10-05: 237.97 GiB -> 159.39 GiB usable; the same host
reads 75.4 GiB available while running). Demand is 105.48 GiB
(52.74/rank x 2 ranks, 23,040 swap-target experts); a boot where co-tenant
RAM squeezed the bound near that silently pins next-hottest experts VRAM-only
(pinned_extra warning, smaller swap region, no flag change). 120 GiB =
measured demand + 14% headroom on 246.1 GiB total. Semantics verified in the
shipped image: cap binds as the bound, exceedance only warns.
The GPU-side arena is unchanged (deterministic arithmetic over the same
constants): verify after boot that host reads '--expert-offload-mem' and
slots stay 7,762. Seam: red first (wiring + value), then green; full suite
368+1 green.
Verified in the shipped image (v1/worker/gpu/cudagraph_mem.py):
estimate_cudagraph_memory() checks VLLM_CUDAGRAPH_MEM_ESTIMATE_MB FIRST and
returns that MiB total outright, ignoring the BASE/PER_GRAPH pair — the only
way to state the CUDA-graph plan term directly instead of deriving it. We
keep shipping the pair (0/12) so a future spec-decode shape re-prices
automatically; documented the switch condition.
Also corrected two stale shape-G claims in the runbook that predated the
1.00 revert: the deployed shape block and the lever table both still said
util 1.0 / 'le=1 ceiling', while shape G ships 0.982.
- new active runbook frank-small-llama-mimo-q6k-2x200704.md: 21,276 used /
2,849 true free (inside the 2-3 GiB floor), decode 94.44 t/s vs 104.84 on
Q5_K_M - the rung costs a measured -10 % (weight-bandwidth-bound card),
512px red-PNG vision verified, and the new probe-size law (>=256 px: a
10x10 image undersupplies image tokens and the model answers 'video'),
nvidia-smi free-field law (driver holds ~450 MiB the subtraction hides)
- frank-small-llama-mimo-q5km.md retired; it keeps the boot-pair table and
becomes the Q5 rollback reference (3,571 free, 104.84 t/s measured)
- AGENTS.md fleet row, endpoint section, --parallel lesson, runbook index
(active row + two retired rows); LLM + root index entries
- Q6_K GGUF-vs-GGUF diff proven: template and all 46 KV keys byte-identical
to Q5_K_M - the vision probe scare was probe size, not payload
The freed third slot funded exact V; the remaining ~3.5 GiB of honest
nvidia-smi free (3,571, not the 4,046 total-minus-used I quoted - the
driver holds ~450 MiB of reserve) funds the +875 MiB of Q6_K weights.
Projected landing ~2.7 GiB free, inside the 2-3 GiB floor; measure on
boot, step the pool one 12,288-token increment if it lands under 2 GiB.
- payload dir MiMo-Q6K/ made self-contained (mmproj hardlinked from
MiMo-Q5KM/, link-count-2 verified)
- env/serve/deployer/bats repointed; download script now fetches and
verifies Q6_K (7,793,710,624 B, ef96d05a...) with Q5_K_M documented as
the rollback; payload sha verified live on the host before deploy
- seam green 14/14 against the stub engine
- new active runbook frank-large-rocmfpx-q6agent-uncensored-mtp.md: the
Q6_0_ROCMFPX_AGENT file (ftype 114, 339 type-102 + 159 type-103 tensors),
27.6-28.1 t/s at 86.8% draft acceptance, the measured ngram-mod chain
rejection (-15% prose: recurrent-state rollback disabled), the
bench-window hardening laws
- frank-large-rocmfpx-q8agent-mtp.md retired; rollback section corrected
(gufo payloads removed from disk 2026-10-03 - that rollback is now a
re-download; the aligned Q8 file is the direct one, still on disk)
- frank-small-llama-mimo-q5km.md reshaped to 2 x 200704 with fully
unquantized f16 KV: boot-pair table gains the measured row (20,530 used /
4,046 free), 104.84 tok/s, slot-window contract at 200704, rollback to
the 3x180224 + q8_0-V shape documented
- AGENTS.md: fleet table rows, both endpoint sections, the chain law
extended with the recurrent-model measurement, the --parallel law with
the reslice, runbook index (active + retired)
- LLM/index.md + root index entries updated
Record the live numbers and the UTIL 1.0 verdict (unbootable: worker init
demands free > budget; ValueError on both ranks before a single weight loads).
Driver used 30.97 of 31.86 GiB; the 0.89 GiB/card margin held through a live
4,096-token generation at ~38-39 tok/s.
Worker init refuses budget >= device total on BOTH ranks:
ValueError: Free memory on device cuda:0 (31.29/31.86 GiB ...)
NRestarts=2 crash loop, zero weights loaded. Experts stay at the v1 shape
(graph term 0.07 GiB, KV 3.1665e9 = the 400,700-token ask); only the budget
returns under the law. Arena 17.78 GiB / ~7,912 slots predicted.
Two plan terms were still unspent: the CUDA-graph charge (shape F's own boot
reported a NEGATIVE capture delta, -0.06 GiB, so the 256 MiB base pool was
fiction -> charge 0 + 12 MiB/graph = 0.07 GiB) and the budget (util 0.982 -> 1.0,
the field's le=1 maximum). Together +0.82 GiB of expert cache: plan target
18.35 GiB / ~8,016 slots. KV_BYTES 3.15e9 -> 3.1665e9 = the 400,700-token ask at
the engine's measured 7,891.8 B/token. Cost of the force, recorded: driver
high-water ~30.4 GiB of 31.86, so ~1.5 GiB of real margin per card; rollback is
UTIL=0.982.
The arena is budget - non-expert - KV reserve - graphs - overhead. With util
capped at 0.982 (never 1.00) the graph estimate is the only plan term this repo
can shrink: the fork charges an analytic 256 MiB + 52 MiB/graph = 0.55 GiB where
the engine's own post-capture line reports 0.31 GiB, so pricing it at
256 + 12/graph returns ~0.24 GiB to the expert arena. MNBT 1024 -> 2048 is
arena-free: the registry overhead is base + 0.22 GiB per 1024 ABOVE its nbt 4096
anchor, and the fitted 5.25 GiB was fitted AT 4096.
Frank's order, two messages: "extend the max context of frank-small to
200700 per individual stream without further quantization", then
"reduce it to 2 streams for a total of 401400-ish tokens, set ubatch to
1k", then "unquantize the KV if we have extra space".
CTX_SIZE 540672 -> 401408 with PARALLEL 3 -> 2 gives n_ctx_slot 200,704:
above the 200,700 the harness compacts at, so a full-length request
lands in one stream instead of a 400 exceed_context_size_error. The pool
must divide evenly across slots and stay 256-aligned for the FA path,
which is why it is 401,408 and not 401,400.
CACHE_TYPE_V q8_0 -> f16: the freed third slot is exactly what pays for
unquantized values (24.5 -> 32 KiB/token), and the budget lands back in
the 2-3 GiB band Frank set on 2026-10-02 instead of leaving ~6 GiB of
the card idle. The asymmetric-KV contract that created this endpoint is
spent with it; both --cache-type flags stay explicit.
--batch-size/--ubatch-size are now passed (2048/1024). The endpoint had
never passed either, so it ran on engine defaults nobody wrote down.

Frank's order: replace frank-large with
kingjones777/Qwen3.8-27B-Uncensored-ROCmFP4-STRIX-MTP-GGUF's
Qwen3.8-27B-Uncensored-Q6_0_ROCMFPX_AGENT.gguf, following that card.
The file is ftype 114 — 339 GGML_TYPE_Q6_0_ROCMFPX (102) + 159
GGML_TYPE_Q8_0_ROCMFPX (103) + 353 F32 over 851 tensors,
qwen35/64 layers/full_attention_interval 4/4 KV heads/262,144 window —
read out of its own header. The pinned ROCmFPX build already knows both
types (ggml.h 102/103 plus convert/cpy/getrows/mmq/fattn device paths
for 102), so no rebuild: the fork stays at 36e9acd and the payload
directory is the only new host state.
Card compliance, all already our flags: Q4_0 draft head (not Q8_0),
--spec-draft-n-max 4 (the knee on both cards), --spec-draft-ngl 99,
--jinja, --fit off, -fa on, -dio, one slot at full window, thinking with
the card's own sampling triple (which the file also embeds as its
general.sampling defaults). Kept from the deployed shape: the BF16
projector (this repo ships only a Q8_0 one; BF16 is the file verified
4/4 on spatial ground truth here) and the byte-identical MTP head, which
the new script hardlinks instead of re-fetching 1.6 GiB.
