+"""frank-tts — the fleet's OpenAI-compatible speech façade (component: the shim).
+
+One local endpoint that answers ``voice=<name>`` with audio in a cloned voice.
+Consumers (the omp harness, OpenWebUI, open-notebook) speak the OpenAI
+``POST /v1/audio/speech`` shape and never learn a file path: a voice is a
+directory under ``$VOICES_DIR`` and ``reference.wav`` inside it is what makes
+the name real. A name that has no reference is not a voice — the shim answers
+400 with the list that is, instead of silently narrating in a fallback voice
+(silent fallback is how a wrong-voice endpoint stays wrong for weeks).
+
+Two backends sit behind the one surface, chosen by ``TTS_BACKEND``:
+
+``omni-http``
+    Forward to an OpenAI-shaped upstream TTS server (``$TTS_UPSTREAM``) and
+    carry the cloned voice with the request as ``reference_audio`` (base64 of
+    ``reference.wav``). The upstream does the inference; this process only
+    resolves the voice and, when asked, re-encodes to mp3 with ``ffmpeg``.
+
+``llama-tts-cli``
+    Run a local binary per request (``$LLAMA_TTS_BIN``), hand it the
+    reference with ``--tts-speaker-file``, read the WAV it writes. ``nice -n
+    19`` because this box also serves text and a voice request must never
+    starve it.
+
+Everything comes from the environment, read at REQUEST time (no
+import-time-only globals): the same module can be imported with an injected
+``Config`` or run with ``python3 app.py`` and the unit's env file.
+
+Runtime law: single process, standard library only, no build step. Audio
+bytes never reach the log — request lines and error text only.

+#
+# Install path on dankclaw: ~/.config/containers/systemd/frank-tts.container
+# Unit name: frank-tts.service (container name: frank-tts)
+#
+# WHAT IT IS. The fleet's one OpenAI-compatible speech endpoint: consumers
+# (omp, OpenWebUI, open-notebook) POST /v1/audio/speech with voice=<name> and
+# get audio in that cloned voice. A voice is a directory under
+# /home/dank/voices holding reference.wav; the shim refuses any name without
+# one (400 + the list that does exist) rather than narrating in a fallback
+# voice nobody chose. The engine behind it is a separate decision —
+# TTS_BACKEND in scripts/frank-tts.env picks between forwarding to an
+# OpenAI-shaped upstream on host :8880 and running a local CLI binary per
+# request.
+#
+# IMAGE. Built locally from dankclaw/voiceservice/Containerfile by
+# deploy-remote.sh (build_compose_image), like loki/alloy: python 3.12-alpine
+# pinned by digest + ffmpeg, app.py copied in, running as uid 10000.
+# Pull=never and the localhost/ prefix are required — this host's quadlet
+# path cannot resolve a locally built tag from local storage otherwise.
+#
+# NETWORK. Bridge (dankclaw_default), NOT host: nothing here needs a shared
+# loopback namespace, and the comfyui/loki/authentik units are bridge too.
+# Consequences both ways: consumers reach it on the published 7772, and the
+# shim reaches the host-side TTS engine through host.containers.internal
+# (never the LAN IP — a bridge netns cannot route to the host's own address
+# for every bind shape, and the fleet's law is the gateway name). NOTE for
+# whoever starts the :8880 engine: host.containers.internal reaches the host
+# network namespace, so the engine must bind an address that namespace
+# accepts; a 127.0.0.1-only bind is not it (the 2026-09-17 signal-relay hop
+# needed the host LAN bind for the same reason).
+#
+# VOICES. /home/dank/voices is host state, never repo state, and is mounted
+# READ-ONLY: this endpoint has no business writing voice packs. Because the
+# container runs as uid 10000, the packs must be world-readable (644 files,
+# 755 directories), which is how the pack builder writes them.
+#
+# NO GPU. The shim is a façade: audio conversion via ffmpeg on the CPU and,
+# for the CLI backend, whatever CPU threads LLAMA_TTS_THREADS allows, at nice
+# 19. No /dev/kfd, no /dev/dri, no keep-groups — unlike comfyui, whose unit

+#!/usr/bin/env bash
+# autoresearch-frank-archon.sh — RUNS ON DANKSERVER, driven over ssh by the
+# dev-box autoresearch.sh. It is the canonical frank-archon benchmark entry
+# point for the autoresearch loop.
+#
+# Method (mandated by the Benchmarking Policy): the production service serves
+# real users and shares the two R9700s, so a bench beside it starves the GPUs
+# and corrupts results. This script therefore:
+#   1. stops the production frank-archon unit (root, relink symlink: stop,
+#      NOT mask — mask refuses to replace a symlinked unit file),
+#   2. boots a scratch radiance container named `arbench` on the SAME two
+#      cards with the candidate engine argv (the env file the loop edits),
+#   3. polls /health until the listener is live (it binds AFTER the full
+#      load, so a bare curl is an honest gate),
+#   4. runs ONE self-contained completion request locally (127.0.0.1, no LAN
+#      jitter): a fixed ~140k-char real-text prompt (~32k tokens) decoded for
+#      256 tokens, greedy. The engine's `timings` object reports the honest
+#      prefill and decode rates for that single request.
+#   5. prints METRIC lines and tears the scratch down,
+#   6. restores production (systemctl start), via a trap so a failed bench
+#      never leaves frank-archon down (the stale-probe-tail lesson).
+#
+# Determinism: the prompt is built from a fixed, sorted corpus of repo files
+# with a fixed random seed, so prompt_n is stable across runs. Sampling is
+# greedy (temperature 0), so the decode length is fixed; the only residual
+# nondeterminism is the wht6 lossy TP all-reduce, which is a constant across
+# runs and cancels in A/B comparisons.
+#
+# The scratch mirrors the production container contract exactly (serve-frank-
+# primary.sh): --network host, --init, seccomp=unconfined (io_uring for the
+# n-gram table), memlock unbounded (the ~132 GiB pinned ledger), /dev/kfd +
+# /dev/dri, the .rad ro, the state dir rw, the tune cache mount. The ONLY
+# differences: the container name (arbench, so prod's identity is untouched)
+# and a FRESH prefix-cache disk tier (arbench/, wiped per run) so the cold
+# prefill is cold — the prod tier at kvcache/frank-archon is left intact.

+# WHY A STAGING DIR (the one non-obvious step): rad-convert selects its
+# architecture plugin by the checkpoint's quantisation DESCRIPTOR —
+# derived from config.json's quantization_config (core/format/checkpoint.cpp:
+# "fp8" here). No shipped plugin claims (qwen4exp, "fp8"): the shipped
+# qwen4exp plugin claims (qwen4exp, ""), the descriptor recipe-built
+# containers carry (they are built from the bf16 upstream, which has no
+# quantization_config at all). The match is exact with no fallback, so an
+# unmodified convert refuses before declare. The descriptor is only a
+# selection key; per-weight encodings are data — the checkpoint reader
+# derives them from the tensors themselves (X.weight_scale_inv is the
+# scale plane; checkpoint.h). Staging drops the quantization_config key
+# (everything else is a relative symlink into the pristine download) so
+# the convert selects the shipped plugin. EVERY weight is then copied through
+# in its own encoding — block-FP8 codes + bf16 scale planes stay block-FP8 —
+# except TWO value-preserving reshapes that stack-qwen38-official-fp8.py
+# performs on the staging dir first, and ONE recipe rule that finishes the
+# PLE table:
+#   * experts: the plugin maps the STACKED layout (mlp.experts.gate_up_proj
+#     [E,2F,H] with the _scale_inv plane at the same index) while the official
+#     repo ships per-expert unfused tensors — staging byte-stacks them
+#     (gate rows first, no requantisation).
+#   * PLE: the plugin's fp8 branch wants the table codes beside a ONE-ELEMENT
+#     bf16 scale plane; the official repo ships 128 SCALELESS fp8 shards plus
+#     one bf16 scalar. Staging decodes to bf16 with the checkpoint's own
+#     scale, and the convert's rtn rule re-encodes at that same scale —
+#     every original code is restored exactly and the scale plane lands in
+#     the form the plugin declares.
+#
+# WHY A CONTAINER AT ALL: a checkpoint dir has no mapped/file tiers, and a
+# weight only a host kernel reads (the n-gram / PLE table, 51B params)
+# cannot be served from one (GUIDE §3.4). rad-convert also bakes the
+# tokenizer and the checkpoint's chat template; the runtime replaces the
+# template with froggeric's (--override-chat-template).
+#
+# The convert runs rad-convert inside the digest-pinned radiance image
+# (the host has no ROCm and needs none): /home/dank/models is mounted at
+# /models so the staging dir's RELATIVE symlinks resolve inside the
+# container. Output lands beside the raw download, owned by dank
+# (rootless podman maps container-root to the invoking user).

+"""calib-push.py — drive a calibration corpus through a radiance scratch
+server's prefill so its tap writes layer Hessians (docs/MOE-W4.md).
+
+Runs ON DANKSERVER next to the scratch server (the one autoresearch- /
+serve-style scratch container booted with RADIANCE_CALIB_DIR set).
+Reads the corpus JSONL produced by make-calib-corpus.py
+({"prompt": "..."} a line), POSTs each prompt to /v1/completions with
+max_tokens=1 (prefill-only cost, one token out), at N-way concurrency
+matching the scratch server's --max-num-seqs budget.
+
+Corpus rounds repeat until the engine prints the tap's completion line
+("calibration wrote layer Hessians") in `podman logs <container>` — that
+is the ground truth that RADIANCE_CALIB_TOKENS was reached. After that
+line, further prompts are pure waste, so the driver exits.
+
+Mechanics notes:
+- requests carry no sampling params that matter (max_tokens=1, greedy).
+- a per-request timeout of 30 min: at ~1k tok/s prefill a 12k-token
+  prompt is a few seconds; the timeout only catches a wedged engine.
+- failures print and continue: the tap pools over tokens, a few lost
+  prompts do not bias the Hessians (the corpus is drawn round-robin over
+  source classes, so loss is class-neutral as long as failures are rare;
+  a systematic 4xx is loud in the log and must be fixed, not ignored).

+# calibration Grams, down projections block-fp8, protected experts bf16,
+# trunk int8, PLE fixed-scale fp8 (scripts/recipes/

+# The convert engine is 1.0.13 — the SAME pin that will serve the result, so
+# the .rad crosses no version boundary. Only the Gram files cross versions
+# (1.2.0 wrote them; the RADGRAM2 magic, gram.r%d.%s.bin naming and the

+# two libquant.so). rad-convert runs on the host backend (no GPU visible in
+# the container) — production can stay up through this script.
+#
+# Prereqs (campaign order): calibration complete (calib-push printed TAP_DONE),
+# the protected-expert cast lines rewritten into the recipe by
+# derive-protected-experts.py, and the 335 GiB bf16 container deleted —

+"""derive-protected-experts.py — rewrite the recipe's protected-expert section
+from a calibration recording. RUNS ON DANKSERVER (venv: numpy).
+
+The law (docs/MOE-W4.md "Protected experts", restated in the recipe):
+an expert whose share of its layer's down-input energy is at least 3% AND
+at least three times its share of the routing is kept bf16; the count must
+be EVEN on each rank's half of the layer (the four-bit GEMM takes the rest
+as two equal tables by parity) — an odd half gains its next most energetic
+non-qualifying expert.
+
+Data: the calibration dir's per-expert down Grams,
+gram.r<rank>.blk.L.ffn_down_exps.<e>.bin — 32-byte RADGRAM2 header
+(magic, k, rank, rows, domain) then k*k f32, named with the checkpoint's
+GLOBAL expert numbering (arch/common/rad_block_moe_fp8.h: ge =
+expert_base + e). rows (header) is the expert's routing count; the trace
+of the Gram is its down-input energy. Rank halves: 0-255, 256-511
+(contiguous expert_base split at TP=2).
+
+Output: the cast-rule lines (recipe format) on stdout, a report on stderr.

+# COMPANION LAW (read this before shipping the new checkpoint): the current

+# 51,200,246,084 B while peonist's stock table is 51,200,246,144 B (60 B
+# apart, so whole-file identity cannot be assumed), and the source-derived
+# vision file is the same size as stock but equal size is not proof of equal
+# content. The six tokenizer assets ARE published with matching blob
+# identities. No source-matched n-gram/vision pair is published anywhere, so
+# the only companions available are peonist's — which is also what the

+# Candidate payload for frank-zealot: prism-ml/Ternary-Bonsai-2-27B-gguf at
+# **PTQ1_0** — the DENSE ternary packing (1.75 bits/weight, 5.95 GB) of the same
+# weights the live PQ2_0 endpoint serves (2.13 bits/weight, 7.21 GB). Public
+# repo: no auth header, and never a token on the command line (a Bearer token is
+# world-readable in /proc/<pid>/cmdline).
+#
+# WHY THIS ARM EXISTS. The whole argument is footprint: 5,946,648,928 B against
+# the live 7,206,168,928 B = **1,201 MiB freed on the card**. On this endpoint
+# KV bills 34,816 B/token (16 full-attention layers x 4 KV heads x 256 dim at
+# q8_0 K + q8_0 V), so that one gap is ~37,000 tokens of pool per 1,201 MiB —
+# context is exactly what the freed weight bytes buy.
+#
+# WHY IT MIGHT LOSE. The publisher's own throughput table (README, llama-bench,
+# batch 1, depth 0): PTQ1_0 wins decode only on Ada/L4 (RTX 4090 91.1 vs 81.2,
+# RTX 6000 Ada 90.4 vs 82.8, L4 32.1 vs 29.8) and LOSES on H100 (86.9 vs 113.9)
+# and A100 (54.7 vs 73.9); prompt processing "favors PQ2_0 everywhere" (A100
+# 706 vs 1328). The card text says explicitly that dense-trit unpacking costs
+# arithmetic and the pack is "slower on Ampere, Hopper, and Blackwell". There is
+# NO GA102/RTX 3090 row: the Ampere statement generalizes from an A100, which is
+# instruction-bound at batch 1 with 2 TB/s of HBM, while the 3090 is the
+# bandwidth-starved member of the family (936 GB/s) — the one regime where
+# moving 17 % less weight per step can pay. That is an argument, not a
+# measurement: this script exists so the decision is made on OUR card, against
+# the PQ2_0 record (76.6 t/s single-stream decode, 1,258 t/s prefill at 35k).
+# MEASURED ON OUR CARD (2026-10-18). Frank ordered this shape at 02:36 — Q8
+# mmproj, batch 3072/ubatch 1536, two contexts — and the unit ran it as
+# production 03:14:39→03:38:57 (pid 191358, journal `type ptq1_0: 402 tensors`).
+# Its own print_timing lines: decode **48.0 / 47.6 t/s at 512 tokens** (47.9 at
+# 229, 49.0 at 451), 25–27 t/s per stream with two streams live, prefill 1,295
+# t/s at 30,637 → 943 at 97,856 → 801 at 141,365. The 1,201 MiB arrived and the
+# decode tax came with it: −37 % against the PQ2_0 record, so the Ampere warning
+# DOES generalize to GA102. Frank scratched the 27B plan at 03:33 for the 9B;
+# this payload is the 27B rollback, not a candidate.
+#
+# THE RUNTIME LOCK CARRIES OVER. Both packings are custom GGML tensor types and
+# stock llama.cpp rejects them ("It rejects PQ2_0 and PTQ1_0 as unknown types"
+# — the card), so the PrismML fork build stays mandatory. Confirm the loadability
+# against the installed binary BEFORE pointing any unit at this file.
+#

+# BOTH R9700s (TP=2), dankserver :7770.
+# 2026-10-15 PAYLOAD SWAP: the model moved from the in-house w4dn8 conversion
+# of the Swift1.5 finetune to the engine author's published container
+# qwen3.8-next-flash-fp8-iq4r-moe.rad (116,322 MiB, sha256-verified at fetch —

+
+#
+# SHAPE (2026-10-13): THREE decode slots x 200,000 tokens, fp8 (quantized) KV,
+# with the per-card budget spent on resident experts: 25,600 MiB of slab +
+# 5,120 MiB of pool = 30,720 MiB, inside the 30,969 MiB ceiling the engine's own
+# budget table allows (card 32,624 MiB, settle floor 209 MiB). The pool is sized
+# to the contract and nothing more (3 x 200,000 needs 5,063 MiB at fp8; 5,120
+# predicts 608,027 tokens, 1.3 % slack), because every MiB taken from the slab
+# is prefill and TTFT (2026-10-11 A/B: slab -14.8 % cost prefill -29 %, TTFT
+# +25 % at the full window) while KV beyond the contract buys nothing.
+# Consequence, deliberate: a FOURTH full-height conversation does not fit this
+# pair, and the engine refuses it — it never truncates. See the KV block for the
+# arithmetic and the measured dtype law. The w4dn8 payload is the swap
+# rollback and keeps its trio under the w4dn8 runbook; the fp8-native payload
+# that came before it was DELETED from disk 2026-10-15 (Frank's call, to free
+# the volume for this download — rebuildable via the fetch + build scripts

+#
+# WHY RADIANCE: the engine is C++/HIP with libr4d kernels built for

+# stilldeadcode/radiance image (287 MiB; host needs only the amdgpu driver),

+# (`X.weight_scale_inv` is the scale plane — checkpoint.h). The PLE n-gram
+# table (51B params, 47.7 GiB) is served from pinned host RAM via io_uring
+# reads — Frank's call: "Native FP8. Experts from ram. Pin the PLE to ram."
+# THE 4-bit-codebook publisher shape is the DEPLOYED payload since
+# 2026-10-15. The card's own run line (--host-pool-mib 12288,

+#
+# SERVING FACTS (docs/GUIDE.md, docs/DOCKER.md, compose/flashnext.yaml):
+# - The HTTP listener binds AFTER the full load (main.cpp: engine.start()
+#   then engine.serve()) — during load the port refuses connections, so a
+#   bare curl /health gate is honest. /health == /ping: 200 JSON while
+#   serving, 503 only while stopping (core/server/admin.cpp:385).
+# - Reasoning: --reasoning-format defaults to auto, emitting thinking in
+#   `reasoning_content` (config.cpp). Tool calls: the qwen3.8 dialect, from
+#   the chat format. Both need no parser flags.
+# - Sampling: the OpenAI endpoint accepts temperature, top_p, top_k, min_p,
+#   typical_p, presence_penalty, frequency_penalty, repetition_penalty,
+#   repeat_last_n, chat_template_kwargs, reasoning_effort,
+#   enable_thinking, preserve_thinking (core/server/oai.cpp:194-205) —
+#   models.yml's extraBody set is fully inside it. Unknown params are
+#   refused (400), which is why nothing unverified rides the wire.
+# - MTP: the .rad carries the model's mtp.* head (the publisher's recipe
+#   names the mtp.fc_hidden/fc_embedding/draft_head rules; card default
+#   depth 3). Served at the depth named by FRANK_ARCHON_SPEC_TOKENS below —
+#   the depth this shape's decode ladder was measured at.
+# - The fused TP all-reduce is declared over max-num-seqs x
+#   (1 + --num-speculative-tokens) rows; 3 x (1+2) = 9 rows, under the 25-row
+#   exactness bound of the wht6 wire.
+# Engine pin: Codeberg tag v1.0.13 (commit 53282fa), Docker Hub tag 1.0.13,
+# index digest below. REJECTED UPGRADE: 1.2.0 (sha256:665775ed1d90de6dbb
+# 25558e07fc60d20328f1346f96f3c6e00845eb763f01fa, tag 1.2.0, commit
+# e95d397) was benched 2026-10-06 on this exact shape (fp8-native rad,
+# vram pair, spec 2, seqs 3, 43.6k greedy probe): decode 29.21 t/s and
+# draft acceptance 0.7123 vs the 1.0.13 control's 30.08 and 0.7549.
+# Acceptance on the greedy harness is deterministic (the control
+# reproduced the recorded 0.755 exactly), so the drop is a real numerics
+# change — the 1.2.0 MoE weight-rotation change (92b8aaf) is the named
+# suspect; decode loss tracks the acceptance ratio (0.943 vs 0.945).
+# The vram-pair translation itself is exact (1.2.0 boot ledger took
+# vram_weights 25.46 GiB / vram_kv 3.46 GiB per card byte-identical to
+# the 1.0.13 ledger at EVC 0.82). Re-test 1.2.0+ when the rotation change
+# is untangled; 1.2.0 also REMOVED --expert-vs-cache-ratio in favour of
+# the --vram-weights-mib / --vram-kv-mib pair (core/config.cpp) — this
+# file already uses the pair, which BOTH pins accept (rollback symmetry).

+# the bf16 KV pool SPILLS ~3.8 GiB/rank here, so the pool moves with it —
+# under-sizing it is a boot failure (36864 refused the boot in the fp8 era).
+# The boot ledger's coverage line remains the referee, not this arithmetic.
+FRANK_ARCHON_HOST_POOL_MIB=44928
+# VRAM left unclaimed per card (publisher default 96 MiB).
+FRANK_ARCHON_GPU_HEADROOM_MIB=96
+# VRAM split of claimed memory per card, MiB (0 = derive from the card).
+# THE CEILING, read off this engine's own VRAM-budget table (boot 2026-10-13,
+# pair 24000/5120): card 32,624 MiB; budgets claimed 29,120; `3.42 GiB is
+# neither budgeted nor accounted — the driver's context, the activation arena
+# and --gpu-headroom-mib come out of it; anything past those is throughput on
+# the floor`; and `card 0 settled at 2.01 GiB free against 209.19 MiB (the
+# 96.00 MiB --gpu-headroom-mib and 113.19 MiB kept for the static region)`.
+# So the reserve above the ENGINE's floor is 2,058 - 209 = 1,849 MiB and the
+# ceiling is 29,120 + 1,849 = 30,969 MiB. The 2026-10-11 bound of 29,120
+# ("31,856 - 1,710 outside both budgets - keep 1 GiB free") was MY reserve, not
+# the engine's; the pair below spends the difference and lands 458 MiB above
+# the engine's floor. `weights + kv <= 30,969` is the gate.
+# THE PRICE, and it is paid twice: on this engine idle KV VRAM is ALSO the
+# expert cache's spillover (`mover: 2275 slots can be lent out of the KV
+# cache (2.69 GiB)`, `arena: lends 740 MiB while steps are <= 256 tokens`),
+# so a bigger KV pool steals weight residency from the slab AND from the
+# lendable cache. Priors on this card/model: stealing 2.14 GiB of weights for
+# a bigger pool (MAX_MODEL_LEN 262144) cost 2.5% decode; the EVC ladder's
+# other direction (0.82 -> 0.84, +2.5 GiB weights) cost 8.9%. The 2026-10-11
+# exact-KV A/B measured the slab's own price (22208 vs the fp8-era 26071):
+# prefill -29 %, TTFT at the full window +25 %, decode inside the noise band on
+# 2 of 3 passes, draft acceptance UP 0.661 -> 0.740.
+# 2026-10-13 (late): THREE slots, so the pool is cut to the contract (5,120)
+# and every spare MiB goes to the slab: 22208 -> 24000 (the third slot's
+# surplus KV), then 24000 -> 25600 (the card's settling slack). The direction
+# the A/B data points: prefill is slab-limited, KV beyond the contract is not.
+# The margin is thin by design (608,027 predicted tokens against the 600,000
+# contract), so the boot ledger's `backs N sequences all at 200000 tokens at
+# once` line is the referee for THIS pair and the concurrent probe is its
+# regression test.
+# VERDICT on the 25,600 arm (measured 2026-10-13, scripts/probe-frank-archon-kv.py):
+# the threshold claim is FALSIFIED — the slab is a SLOPE at this end. A-cold
+# 43.5k single-stream: 22,208 -> 3,397, 24,000 -> 3,290, 25,600 -> 3,584 t/s;
+# the 3-way 197k arm's aggregate prefill 3,051 -> 3,589 t/s (wall
+# 193.7 -> 164.5 s). So +1,600 MiB of slab = +8.9 % single-stream and
+# +17.6 % concurrent, both outside the +-3 % noise floor. The 22,208/24,000
+# pair landed inside noise of EACH OTHER, which is what made it read as a
+# plateau; two points are not a curve.
+# The cliff that remains is between 25,600 (3,584) and 26,071 (4,379, the
+# 2026-10-11 fp8 control at seqs 3 / pool 3,543) — +22 % for +471 MiB. At THREE
+# slots that is only reachable by breaking the ceiling (26,112 + 5,120 = 31,232
+# vs 30,969, ~214 MiB above the engine's floor); at TWO slots it is free:

+#               not 2x, precisely because the bkey plane is dtype-fixed.
+# The dtype-INDEPENDENT terms also live in the pool: kv_gdn_state 54 MiB x 2
+# copies per sequence (+ conv/tail/ple ~= 110 MiB a sequence) and the prefix
+# checkpoint region 8 x 55.99 = 448 MiB. So:
+#   pool_mib >= tokens x 7.3125 KiB + 110 x seqs + 448
+#   3 x 200,000 at fp8 needs 4,285 + 330 + 448 = 5,063 MiB; the pool is 5,120,
+#   and it predicts (5120 - 330 - 448) x 1024 / 7.3125 = 608,027 tokens: the
+#   three-slot contract with 1.3 % slack, every MiB above 5,063 having been
+#   handed to the expert slab instead. The ledger line is the referee ("backs N
+#   sequences all at 200000 tokens at once") — a pair this tight is read off the
+#   boot, never assumed.
+#   At bf16 the same three slots cost 8,093 + 778 = 8,871 MiB, which would cut
+#   the slab to 20,249 MiB (-9 %); at FOUR slots bf16 costs 10,791 + 888 =
+#   11,679 MiB and the slab falls to 17,441 (-33 %). fp8 keeps 22,208 at both

+#   tokens = 2 x 200,000; the historical fp8 pool of 3,543 gave 386,904 (1.93

+# redeploy: the swift15 payload stays on disk at
+# /home/dank/models/halogen-flashnext-v2/, the 27B-era payload beside it.
+#
+# MEASURED A/B, both boots on this box, identical battery traffic (engine
+# tools with the service stopped, behavior probes against it, 2026-10-17):
+# NIAH 18/18 vs 17/18, refusal census 0/5 on both, tool calls and the
+# red-PNG vision probe identical, needle hit at both depths of a 21.5k-token
+# haystack, decode 50.0 vs 46.8 t/s, cold prefill 1,604 vs 1,425 t/s,
+# wikitext-2 PPL 3.968 vs 3.877 (the finetune's edge is gone: +2.3 %) and
+# thinking tokens 1,476 vs 784 mean — the finetune compressed reasoning, the
+# base thinks ~1.9x longer per answer.
+#
+# The A/B ran at the card's ctx/pool of 262,144. Afterwards Frank lowered ctx to
+# 200,704 (RAM + the harness's compaction budget) and, on 2026-10-18, raised the
+# pool to 2 x ctx = 401,408 so BOTH slots can carry a full-length request at
+# once; the rates above are the ceiling-262,144 record and the production ledger
+# is the ctx-200,704 one.
+#
+# WHY THE RUNTIME MOVED WITH THE MODEL: the payload is .hgn — per its own
+# card it "will not load in transformers, vLLM, or llama.cpp" — and the v2
+# .hgn loads ONLY in the flash-server line (the old halogen engine is for
+# the 27B p1w4d file; the v2 quickstart pins flash-server). What the move
+# buys (card + live probe evidence): MTP spec decode (53-57 t/s greedy,
+# 3-10x serial), ~1,640 t/s prefill at 34k, ~72% fewer thinking tokens than
+# the censored 27B (905 mean), the ABLITERATED base (refusals should NOT
+# return), IMAGE INPUT (the v2 vision tower loads beside the checkpoint —
+# red-PNG probe verified on the card; the 27B engine ignored its encoder),
+# tool calls verified, and the native 262,144 context — served at 200,704 by
+# choice from 2026-10-17 (see SHAPE: the ceiling is a RAM decision, not a
+# capability limit).
+#
+# SHAPE — the knobs that are NOT free, with the arithmetic:
+#   HALOGEN_CTX=200704 is the PER-REQUEST ceiling and the per-conversation
+#   hard limit — a prompt over it is a 400 naming the limit, never a silent
+#   truncation. LOWERED from 262,144 on 2026-10-17 at Frank's direction (the
+#   checkpoint's native window is 262,144 and the engine serves anything
+#   below it): every position costs KV pool RAM and shrinks the prompt-cache
+#   entry (111 MiB at 262,144, ~85 MiB here). The 400-zone law is INVARIANT
+#   to the value — it says the harness window must sit ~45k UNDER the engine
+#   ceiling, because the harness clamps max_tokens to contextWindow − est −
+#   4096, its chars/4 est UNDER-counts the rendered prompt by ~3 % on
+#   code/agent traffic, and compaction only fires at 85 % (measured 2026-10-07
+#   at the old 200,192 ceiling: est 152,938, server 157,388, over by 354).
+#   Harness contract (models.yml): contextWindow 155648 (= ceiling − 45056,
+#   the gap that absorbs the estimate error), maxTokens 45056.
+#   Compaction fires at 85 % = 132,301 est ≈ 136k measured — the 180k target
+#   of the 262,144 era is unreachable at this ceiling: the window itself is
+#   155,648. Worst-case request: prompt + budget <= 155648 − 4096 + 3 %
+#   est-error ≈ 156.2k <= 200,704 — ~9.5× the 3 % error of margin (robust to a
+#   ~25 % under-count). Compaction rides on frank-zealot: input ≈ threshold −
+#   keepRecent(20k) ≈ 112k, inside its 200,704 slot.
+#   HALOGEN_KV_POOL_POSITIONS=401408 = SLOTS x CTX (2 x 200,704), the top of the
+#   legal band (the seam enforces ctx <= pool <= slots * ctx). Still ONE pool
+#   behind HALOGEN_KV_SLOTS=2 (ledger form: "2 slots over ONE <pool>-position KV
+#   pool, each request up to HALOGEN_CTX"), but sized so BOTH slots can hold a
+#   MAXIMUM-length request at the same time — the parity with frank-zealot's
+#   401,408-position pool that Frank ordered on 2026-10-18. The PER-REQUEST
+#   ceiling does NOT move with it: HALOGEN_CTX stays 200,704, because the
+#   checkpoint's native window is 262,144 and the engine refuses to go past it
+#   without HALOGEN_ROPE_YARN (its own 400 text says so). ~28 KiB/position
+#   (FLAGS.md) ⇒ the DEPLOYED 2026-10-18 boot RESERVES 11.0 GiB (`reserving the
+#   KV pool, 401408 positions (about 11.0 GiB)`), where pool == ctx (200,704)
+#   cost 5.5, 262,144 cost 7.2 and the 2026-10-06 shape's 524,288 measured 14.6.
+#   The preflight formula bills 11.3 (block scratch + ~115 MiB/slot of O(1)
+#   state) — quote the RESERVATION. FLAGS.md law: "RAM the pool
+#   takes is RAM that table loses" — the 47.68 GiB n-gram table surrenders this
+#   much page cache, so the warm prompt-cache ratio is what to re-measure.
+#   HALOGEN_KV_SLOTS=2 restores the w4b-era shape on this box: the MTP
+#   drafter is NOT slot-locked on this engine (batching and speculation
+#   coexist — DFlash-era slots>1 law does NOT carry over; the card's own
+#   quickstart ships 2 slots WITH the head), so the second slot is
+#   concurrent capacity, not a speculation tax.
+#   Memory ledger against the box's 121.2 GiB unified (the n-gram table is
+#   mmap'd page cache beside the checkpoint, not a pinned charge — the boot
+#   ledger agrees: "mapped 51.2 GB, NOT pinned (Pin::None)"):
+#     weights 62.9 GiB locked (0.8 of them the vision tower) + KV 11.0 +
+#     working 5.7 (HALOGEN_MAX_TOK=8192) = 79.6 GiB engine-side (the boot
+#     ledger of the 401408-position deploy, 2026-10-18), with the 1.3 GiB
+#     prompt cache (12 entries x 111 MiB at ctx 200704) booked separately by
+#     the ledger; HALOGEN_HOST_RESERVE_GIB=20 keeps the host honest. Against
+#     the 121.2 GiB box that leaves ~20 GiB over the reserve (MemAvailable
+#     read 22 GiB right after the raise) for baseline co-tenancy
+#     (frank-zealot, ComfyUI, Caddy/observ ~10-15). The boot ledger is the
+#     referee — read it after deploy and re-size if the engine prints a
+#     clamp.
+#   HALOGEN_SPEC_ADAPT=0 is MANDATORY (card): the default adaptive policy
+#   turns the MTP head off for whole requests after low acceptance and
+#   HALVES decode as a result. Frank accepted the head always-on trade
+#   (temp 1.0 traffic costs acceptance; the card still ships the recipe).
+#
+# CLIENT CONTRACT deltas vs the 27B shape (harness side lives in
+# ~/.omp/agent/models.yml):
+#   * SERVER-SIDE SAMPLER EXISTS NOW: HALOGEN_TEMPERATURE/TOP_P/TOP_K set
+#     the card's thinking recipe (1.0 / 0.95 / 20) as engine defaults, so
+#     an absent temperature is no longer greedy. models.yml extraBody
+#     carries the same values — consistent, not load-bearing.
+#   * HALOGEN_MAX_TOK=8192 is only the DEFAULT for requests that omit
+#     max_tokens; the harness sends at most its maxTokens 45056. Requests
+#     over HALOGEN_MAX_TOKENS_CAP (65536) are a 400 naming the cap. Cap and
+#     queue timeout are COUPLED (FLAGS.md table): 65536 at ~10 t/s serial
+#     worst case needs > 6550 s; 7200 honors it. Do not move one alone.
+#   * max_tokens INCLUDES thinking; a reasoning reply over a small budget
+#     returns empty content with finish_reason "length".
+#   * Prompt cache is ON by default (PROMPT_CACHE=2): a follow-up turn at
+#     100k context re-prefills ~2 s instead of ~88 s cold. No pin needed —
+#     unlike the 27B engine, auto-sizing fits this box's ledger.
+#   * Thinking lands in reasoning_content (same as the 27B engine); the
+#     v2 chat template rejects reasoning_effort outside xhigh|medium|low,
+#     so the models.yml fold (high->xhigh) still applies.
+#   * Vision: OpenAI image_url content parts only (the fleet's standard
+#     contract). >=256 px probe images or the model answers "video".
+#   * Concurrency at depth is tight now: the KV pool is ONE 200,704-position
+#     budget behind 2 slots — exactly one maximum-length request fills it. Two
+#     conversations coexist only while they stay under ~100k each. The
+#     PER-REQUEST ceiling moved WITH the pool (262144 -> 200704), so the harness
+#     contract moves too: contextWindow 155648 = ceiling − 45k, never higher.
+#   * response_format json_object/json_schema unsupported in this line
+#     (no constrained decoding) — unchanged from the 27B engine.
+#   * The engine's token protocol has no auth and binds loopback INSIDE
+#     the container; only the frontend port (8731) is published. Same as
+#     before. Kernel needs CONFIG_HSA_AMD_SVM (CachyOS ships it) and

-#
-# WHY THE RUNTIME MOVED WITH THE MODEL: the payload is .hgn — per its own
-# card it "will not load in transformers, vLLM, or llama.cpp". Accepted
-# consequences (Frank, 2026-10-05): TEXT-ONLY (halogen ignores the model's
-# vision encoder; the fleet's vision path is frank-small) and the CENSORED
-# base (this is a finetune of Qwen/Qwen3.8-27B, not the abliterated file —
-# refusals may return). What it buys: vendor-measured decode DFlash2 31.7
-# t/s mean (vs this endpoint's MTP 27.6-28.1 and the old halogen-era MTP
-# 26.9), prefill ~566 t/s at 32k (was ~400 on the sibling engine), 1.4-2.3x
-# wall-clock on prefill-heavy agent traffic, at HIGHER effective precision
-# (~6.32 bpw vs ~6.6 with the old W4A4 promotion — see FLAGS.md).
-#
-# SHAPE — the two knobs that are NOT free:
-#   HALOGEN_KV_SLOTS=1 KEEPS SPECULATION ON. halogen makes batching and
-#   speculation mutually exclusive: with >1 slot the drafter is disabled
-#   and per-stream decode falls to serial speed (the sibling engine
-#   measured 41 t/s -> 14 t/s when slots were raised, and halogen's own
-#   FLAGS.md prints the same law). frank-large was already a one-session
-#   endpoint under ROCmFPX (PARALLEL=1), so slots=1 is the same contract,
-#   not a regression.
-#   HALOGEN_SLOT_CTX=200700 (Frank's window) is the per-conversation hard
-#   ceiling — a prompt over it is a 400 naming the limit, never a silent
-#   truncation. KV pool = slots x slot_ctx x 64 KiB = 12.2 GiB. Budget
-#   against the 121 GiB of unified memory: weights 33.4 GiB (mmap'd — page
-#   cache, not anon), KV 12.2, engine working set + auto prompt cache
-#   ~20-30, host baseline ~10 -> ~75-85 GiB in use. The 2026-09-16 halogen
-#   era ran the same engine class on this box with LESS headroom.
-#   HALOGEN_DRAFTER=2 (DFlash2) is the shipped default and the fastest
-#   exact drafter on this checkpoint; the .hgn BAKES BOTH drafters (MTP +
-#   DFlash2), so unlike the Flash-Next era there is no sidecar to mount
-#   and no --dflash flag — the drafter is an int knob, byte-identical
-#   output to greedy verification either way.
-#
-# CLIENT CONTRACT deltas vs the ROCmFPX shape (the harness side lives in
-# ~/.omp/agent/models.yml):
-#   * NO server-side sampler defaults: a request without temperature
-#     decodes GREEDY. The harness sends temp 1.0 / top_p 0.95 via
-#     extraBody, so that wire recipe is load-bearing now, not cosmetic.
-#   * max_tokens defaults to 8192 PER REQUEST and INCLUDES thinking; a
-#     reasoning reply over a small budget returns empty content with
-#     finish_reason "length". The harness maxTokens is 57344: compaction
-#     fires at 70% of 200700 = 140,490 and 140,490 + 57,344 = 197,834 <=
-#     200,700 keeps prompt + budget inside the pool (the 262144-era 65536
-#     would overflow). Requests over HALOGEN_MAX_TOKENS_CAP are a 400
-#     naming the cap; cap and queue timeout are COUPLED (see FLAGS.md
-#     table) — do not move one without the other.
-#   * response_format json_object/json_schema is a 400 (no constrained
-#     decoding in this build).
-#   * Thinking lands in reasoning_content — same field as the llama.cpp
-#     era, so the harness compat block does NOT change. reasoning_effort
-#     accepts none|low|xhigh on this build (template default xhigh); the
-#     models.yml fold (high->xhigh) still applies.

-# SERVING FACTS (docs/cli.md, verified against main+PR587):
-# - `ft serve` loads the checkpoint directly; `--served-model-name` keeps the
-#   harness id; reasoning/tool parsers are AUTO (reasoning lands in
-#   reasoning_content — models.yml flips reasoningContentField to match).
-# - KV: --page-size must stay 1 for GDN/SWA models (default); --cache-type
-#   radix auto-picks the GDN-aware variant.
-# - MoE: --moe-strategy auto -> offload (fp8 experts CANNOT use
-#   --moe-cpu-layers; only bf16/nvfp4/mxfp4 have a CPU executor).
-#   --moe-cache-rate holds the GPU LRU fraction of all experts.
-# - `ft ctl cache --kv --moe` grows the pools LIVE on a running server

-# Both are tunables because the pair is a measurement, not a law — and the
-# measurement is CARD-SPECIFIC. On the 2x R9700 layer-split sibling the ubatch
-# curve peaks at 512 and every step up costs GiB of compute buffer for no
-# speed (see frank-medium-batch-ubatch). On THIS CUDA 3090 the curve climbs
-# monotonically to 2048: 710 -> 1188 t/s prefill from ubatch 1024 to 2048 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. Ubatch is a prefill knob; decode never moves.
-#
-# The logical batch is free — two independent 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. Doubling it costs
-# nothing and buys nothing; it is here because it is the value the pair was
-# measured at.

-# THE RISK IS ALL IN THE UBATCH. The 1024 -> 2048 step cost ~1,244 MiB of peak

-# smaller compute tensors, so the delta should be well under that, but the

-# ubatch FIRST — the measured 616 MiB step is the first VRAM the Q8 weights
-# claw back, before any pool move). Compute buffers are allocated at graph

+# WHAT THIS IS. One OpenAI-compatible /v1/audio/speech façade in front of
+# whichever TTS engine wins the engine decision (dankclaw/voiceservice/app.py
+# is a single stdlib-only file in a locally built image). Consumers — omp's
+# TTS device, OpenWebUI, open-notebook — address a VOICE BY NAME
+# (voice=narrator1, or the harness' voice_id=narrator1) and never see a path:
+# a name is real exactly when /voices/<name>/reference.wav exists, and
+# anything else is a 400 that lists the names that are.
+#
+# THE PACKS. /home/dank/voices on the host, mounted read-only at /voices. One
+# directory per voice, and a directory is a PACK only when it carries BOTH
+# required members:
+#   reference.wav     24 kHz mono PCM, 18-25 s of clean single-speaker audio,
+#                     plus the 16 kHz variant some engines want;
+#   the engine artifact  the pinned backend's own speaker file (embedding /
+#                     speaker weights). REQUIRED, beside the WAV and never
+#                     replacing it — a voice that cannot be reused by another
+#                     runtime is not a saved voice.
+# plus manifest.json for provenance: source file, offsets (always past the
+# first 10 s of that file, the source-material law), engine, sha256. Packs are
+# host state and stay out of this repo; they must be world-readable because the
+# container runs as uid 10000. Who enforces what: the shim gates on
+# reference.wav because that is the only engine-agnostic term, so the pack
+# builder is what refuses to emit a pack without its engine artifact — until a
+# winning engine pins the format and this gate can name the file.
+#
+# BACKEND SWITCH. TTS_BACKEND picks the shape and nothing else changes for the
+# consumer:
+#   omni-http      forward to an OpenAI-shaped upstream on the host (:8880),
+#                  carrying the voice along as base64 reference_audio. The

+
+calib.jsonl — 10M tokens of agent-shaped RAW text (45% code, 30% prose,
+25% tool-call JSON), one {"prompt": text} per line, pushed to
+/v1/completions with max_tokens=1 during the calibration run (the Hessian
+tap is of the prompt tokens; docs/MOE-W4.md step 2). Code and prose mix
+the repo checkout with HF dataset parquets (Frank's call 2026-10-06:
+local material is only ~1.6M unique tokens; MOE-W4 wants 10M):
+nampdn-ai/tiny-codes (code) and Salesforce/wikitext wikitext-103-raw
+(prose). Tool calls are synthesized from commands harvested from the
+repo's own scripts plus a fleet-ops set, with argument-shaped variants.
+
+kld.jsonl — 1.8M tokens, one {"prompt", "score_from", "source"} per
+line; each prompt is a multi-turn conversation rendered through the
+Froggeric v22.5 template with a >= --kld-min-prompt (8192) token target,
+and the last 256 tokens (the tail of the assistant answer) are the
+scored span: score_from = n - 256. At 8k-token prompts the 1.8M corpus
+is ~220 prompts = ~56k scored positions ~= 25 GB of record, matching
+the published Flash-Next KLD scale (83k positions, MOE-W4.md). The KLD
+reference run and every candidate run consume the SAME file (TOOLS.md
+--kld-record / --kld-ref). The KLD corpus is LOCAL material only, so the
+file-level disjointness rule (fnv1a64(path) % 5 == 0 -> KLD pool) is
+untouched by the HF additions.
