docs(openwebui): frank-dragoon enabled in the picker beside frank-zealot

Live DB trio applied on Dankclaw (enable idx 0, model row + global access_grant, restart); verified /api/models as admin and role=user, chat answers pong. Battery rewritten to gate on /api/models — /api/v1/models/list lists only workspace models on 0.6.x.

-### AI Disclosures:
-
- Slop rating: 2/5 - Actively using, actively de-slopping, **repository mostly human owned**, lacks formal process.
- Completeness: Unfinished, planning planned, no plan yet
- Datacenter model/spend: Less than $20 of Deepseek 4.1 Flash and GLM-5.3-Flash
- Local model: Qwen 3.8 Flash Next
-
-### slop rating of 2 or lower indicates human reading is a worthwhile exercise, and that Frank has read the code and knows the architecture.
-### slop rating of 2 indicates that while this project is human owned, no human contribution process exists and/or release is agentically driven.

-# a rootless container carries no supplementary groups and cannot open them —
-# a rootless read of system.journal returns DENIED (see the Alloy page in the
-# vault). Running as root, one loki.source.journal reads system.journal AND
-# user-1000.journal, so it carries both host logs and the rootless Quadlet
-# containers' logs. Validated 2026-10-20: a root probe read 31,825 journal
-# lines and pushed 26,966 into Loki in 20 s, zero drops.
+# Log shipper. This replaces the compose service of the same name in
+# dankclaw/compose.yaml ("Observability" block).
 #
-# NETWORK=host. Loki publishes 127.0.0.1:3100 (loopback only) on the host, and
-# no bridge container — rootless or root — can reach the host's loopback, so
-# this unit runs on the host network and pushes to 127.0.0.1:3100. The side
-# effect: the UI must bind loopback too, so Exec sets the listen-addr to
-# 127.0.0.1 (the old rootless unit used 0.0.0.0 only because container loopback
-# was not host loopback; under Network=host they are the same address, so the
-# unauthenticated UI stays loopback-only — nothing off-host reaches it).
+# IMAGE. franksdank/alloy is built locally by deploy-remote.sh
+# (build_compose_image) from dankclaw/alloy/Containerfile: upstream
+# grafana/alloy plus a static busybox for the healthcheck. Pull=never keeps a
+# boot from reaching for that local tag at a registry.
 #
-# THE /etc/machine-id MOUNT IS LOAD-BEARING. sd_journal locates the journal
-# directory by the local machine id; without it the container opens nothing and
-# the journal source reads exactly 0 lines — silently, no error, health green.
-# This mount is the entire reason the pipeline carries data. Never remove it.
+# NETWORK. It joins dankclaw_default so its config's loki.write endpoint
+# resolves the container name loki:3100.
 #
-# IMAGE. Built rootless by build_compose_image alloy, then mirrored into the
-# root image store by the deployer (a root build runs in the build container's
-# own resolver and fails on DNS here). Pull=never: boot must not reach for the
-# local tag at a registry.
+# THE UI PORT EXISTS ON PURPOSE. Alloy's UI listens on the container's own
+# 127.0.0.1 by default and cannot be moved from the config file (alloy 1.x
+# refuses the ui block), so the compose service had no reachable health
+# endpoint at all: the homepage status card for alloy reported "down"
+# continuously and there was nothing for a deploy to wait on. The command
+# below therefore moves the UI to the container's wildcard address and the
+# port is published on host loopback only, which puts alloy in the same class
+# as the other three: reachable from the host, by Caddy over the private
+# network, and by nothing off-host. Alloy has no authentication, which is
+# exactly why it is not published wider.
+#
+# SOURCES. The host journald socket and the host log/container-storage trees
+# are bind-mounted read-only; Alloy tails them and pushes to Loki. The config
+# lives at /opt/alloy/config/config.alloy, installed from
+# shared/alloy/config.alloy on every deploy.

-# Quadlet unit: blackbox exporter (rootless, host network, boot-persistent).
-#
-# Install path on dankclaw:
-#   ~/.config/containers/systemd/blackbox-exporter.container
-#
-# WHY Network=host. The probes it runs are (a) the host's own LAN IP
-# (192.168.0.143:8081 SearXNG, :3005 OpenWebUI — host-process/portmap binds a
-# bridge container cannot reach; netavark DNATs published ports only, see
-# Container Host Reachability in the vault) and (b) ComfyUI's published port
-# via 127.0.0.1 (rootless --network=host shares the real host netns, so the
-# 0.0.0.0:8188 publish answers on loopback). A bridge-networked prober could
-# reach neither class reliably.
-#
-# WHY the listener binds 127.0.0.1 + LAN. A bridge container CANNOT dial
-# its own host's LAN IP (netavark hairpin gap, measured 2026-10-21), but a
-# bridge container dialing the podman gateway 169.254.1.2 lands on the host
-# LOOPBACK — that is the scrape path, and it needs this exporter to be
-# LISTENING ON LOOPBACK (proved: 200 from the prometheus container to
-# http://169.254.1.2:9115/-/healthy with a loopback bind). The gateway
-# address itself is NOT bindable from the host netns — it exists only
-# inside each rootless netns; binding it dies "bind: cannot assign
-# requested address" (live 2026-10-21). The LAN bind stays for diagnostics.
-# No public DNS name, no guard chain: internal net only, per the exposure
-# policy. The listen flag is --web.listen-address and it is REPEATABLE, one
-# flag per bind; plain --listen-address does not exist and the exporter
-# exits in 100 ms with "unknown long flag" (live 2026-10-21).

-# Quadlet unit: cadvisor (rootless, boot-persistent) — DANKCLAW.
-#
-# Install path on dankclaw: ~/.config/containers/systemd/cadvisor.container
-# Unit name: cadvisor.service (container name: cadvisor)
-#
-# WHY THIS EXISTS. The app stack is ~34 rootless Podman containers and until
-# now nothing reported per-container CPU/memory — Grafana could only see the
-# host (node_exporter) and the LLM engines. cadvisor reads the host cgroup
-# tree and exports container_cpu_* / container_memory_* per container.
-#
-# THE LOAD-BEARING FLAG IS --cgroupns=host. Podman starts every container in a
-# PRIVATE cgroup namespace, so an exporter container sees only its OWN cgroup
-# subtree: cadvisor exported a single root series until this flag was added,
-# then it walked the whole tree (996 per-container series measured 2026-10-20).
-# The quadlet unit name is carried in the cgroup path — app.slice/<name>.service/
-# libpod-payload-<hex> — so Prometheus relabels that path into a `container`
-# label (shared/prometheus/prometheus.yml, cadvisor-dankclaw job) and no
-# libpod/podman socket is needed to name containers.
-#
-# BINDING. cadvisor has no per-interface listen flag (unlike node_exporter's
-# --web.listen-address), so it binds 0.0.0.0 INSIDE its own network namespace.
-# The bridge PublishPort is what keeps the unauthenticated endpoint off the
-# host's other interfaces: it publishes exactly loopback (host-local probes and
-# the deployer's health gate) and this host's LAN address (Prometheus, a bridge
-# container, reaches a host-published port at its LAN address — the same netavark
-# rule node-exporter relies on, only here the port really is published).
-#
-# It is rootless on purpose: dank owns the app containers' cgroups, so a
-# rootless cadvisor reads every one of them; root would buy nothing here.

-# provider credentials and podcast episodes all live here. The app talks to it
-# over the WebSocket RPC on the private bridge (SURREAL_URL in
-# scripts/open-notebook.env), which is why the container NAME is part of the
-# contract — renaming it breaks the app's database URL, not just this file.
-#
-# IMAGE. `surrealdb/surrealdb:v2` pinned by manifest-list digest, resolved from
-# the registry on 2026-10-18 (that digest is SurrealDB 2.7.0, image built
-# 2026-09-23; `v2` itself is a MOVING tag, so the digest — not the tag — is what
-# makes this reproducible). Upstream open-notebook's own compose file pins the
-# same `v2` tag, and its Dockerfile copies /surreal out of the same image for
-# the retired single-container variant, so v2 is the version this app is built
-# against. Pull=never + the documented pull step (docs: [[Open Notebook]]):
-#
-#   podman pull docker.io/surrealdb/surrealdb:v2@sha256:e5d7387e3727bbe2f7cd6d869e48cd34777272258572ead37c9656b25f745723
-#
-# NO PUBLISHED PORT. 8000 is deliberately not published: the app reaches it by
-# name on systemd-open-notebook, and a published 8000 would put the RPC with
-# the root credentials on every interface (upstream publishes 127.0.0.1:8000
-# "purely for local debugging" — a `podman exec` probe is enough here). The
-# binary binds 0.0.0.0:8000 INSIDE its own namespace via the image's
-# SURREAL_BIND env; without that image default it would bind loopback only and
-# the app could never connect, so no --bind flag belongs here.
-#
-# CREDENTIALS, AND WHY THEY ARE NOT IN THE COMMAND LINE. The `surreal start`
-# CLI reads its options from the environment (`--username` is [env:
-# SURREAL_USER=], `--password` is [env: SURREAL_PASS=] — verified against the
-# pinned image's own `start --help`), so the credentials arrive through the two
-# EnvironmentFile lines and the argv stays clean. Passing `--pass` instead —
-# what upstream's compose does — would put the database password in
-# /proc/<pid>/cmdline, readable by any `ps` on the host. Note the two
-# spellings: the DATABASE reads SURREAL_PASS, the APP reads SURREAL_PASSWORD,
-# and scripts/open-notebook.env declares both because they must hold the same
-# value; the deployer writes that pair when it seeds the host secret file.
-#
-# NO USER= OVERRIDE. The image runs as uid 65532 (Chainguard glibc-dynamic
-# base). With a NAMED volume that works unmodified: podman creates the volume's
-# backing directory owned by the container's user (measured with this digest —
-# the host directory lands on the mapped subuid and the store starts clean),
-# which is exactly why upstream's `user: root` line is not repeated here: that
-# line is commented in upstream as being "required for bind mounts", and this
-# unit has none. The consequence is that the DB files are NOT readable by dank
-# without `podman unshare` — accepted for a datastore nobody edits by hand;
-# episode AUDIO is a host directory for the opposite reason (see the app unit).
-#
-# HEALTH. The base image is distroless — measured against this digest, not even
-# `ls` exists (`exec: "ls": executable file not found in $PATH`), so there is no
-# `/bin/sh`, no curl and no wget. SurrealDB ships its own probe instead:
-# `surreal is-ready` connects to ws://localhost:8000 by default, needs no
-# credentials, prints `OK` and exits 0 while the server is up.
-#
-# It must be handed over as a QUADLET-SIDE JSON ARRAY, not a bare command.
-# podman wraps a bare `HealthCmd` string as `CMD-SHELL` (measured on this host's
-# podman 5.7: `--health-cmd "/surreal is-ready"` stores
-# `{"Test":["CMD-SHELL","/surreal is-ready"]}`), and with no `/bin/sh` in the
-# image that probe fails in ~30 ms with empty output on every interval while the
-# database answers perfectly — which is exactly how this service's first deploy
-# died on 2026-10-19 (`did not become healthy in 90s`). The quoted array survives
-# the generator (`--health-cmd "[\"/surreal\",\"is-ready\"]"`) and stores
-# `["CMD","/surreal","is-ready"]`, which execs directly and goes healthy. Do not
-# "simplify" it back to a bare command.

-#
-# NETWORKS, in this order on purpose. The generated run line keeps file order,
-# so the DEFAULT ROUTE rides dankclaw_default: that is the network where this
-# host has measured that a bridge container can reach a host-namespace
-# listener through the gateway name (the Prometheus scrape of frank-zealot is
-# the proof — see [[Container Network Namespaces]]), and frank-tts lives there
-# too, so the TTS credential can be `http://frank-tts:7772/v1`. The private
-# systemd-open-notebook bridge is second and carries only the database; its
-# traffic is on-link, so losing the default route costs it nothing.
-#
-# PUBLISHED PORTS, and the 5055 collision. Upstream publishes 8502 and 5055,
-# and 5055 is exactly the port seerr already holds on this host
-# (`PublishPort=127.0.0.1:5055:5055`; `ss -ltn` on Dankclaw 2026-10-18 shows
-# 127.0.0.1:5055 taken). So the API leaves the container on host port 5056.
-# Only 8502 is published on all interfaces, because it is the single upstream
-# the guard chain dials: notebook.franksdank.cloud → anubis → authentik →
-# http://:8017 → 192.168.0.143:8502 (dankclaw/Caddyfile), and this Caddy lives
-# in root's storage, so a published port is the only way it can reach a rootless
-# quadlet. The API needs no outward face at all — the image's own Next.js layer
-# rewrites /api/* to the FastAPI beside it, so one origin serves UI and API —
-# and the fleet's rule is that loopback-only is for services whose user path is
-# the guard chain, which this became on 2026-10-19; 5056 stays published on
-# loopback because the deployer's health gate dials it there. That is also why
-# API_URL in scripts/open-notebook.env names the vhost rather than a port: left
-# to itself the frontend auto-detects `<host-you-opened>:5055`, and the UI loads
-# while every call fails. OPEN_NOTEBOOK_PASSWORD is not made redundant by the
-# chain: it is what keeps the API honest for everything else on this host, and
-# with it unset the API answers anyone, including the unauthenticated
-# episode-audio download.
-#
-# VOLUMES. `/app/data` is a named volume: uploads, the LangGraph SQLite
-# checkpoints and the extraction caches the image keeps under it
-# (UV_CACHE_DIR, HF_HOME) are app state nobody browses. The ONE exception is
-# finished audio, which is bind-mounted out of the container at
-# /home/dank/media/podcasts. That mount is interim and reversible: episode
-# destination is an open human-only decision (Gitea issue #7, label
-# `human-only` — agents must not work it), and until it lands, episodes are

-# THE PINNED COMMIT IS THE CONTRACT. 5916bf7c79dbb4e66fc059cdc507a79a23a28bb4
-# is the commit the 2026-10-18 CPU trial on Dankclaw measured (server-side TTFA

-#
-# THE BUILD LINE IS THE ONE PROVEN ON DANKCLAW, verbatim — with the Vulkan door
-# open since 2026-10-19. That configure was run in this exact base image and
-# answers `Found Vulkan: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libvulkan.so (found version

-#     but no BLAS dev headers, so the upstream default (BLAS on) fails to
-#     configure. Upstream's own Dockerfile and buildcpu.sh both pass BLAS on,
-#     which is why this file does not copy them.
-#   GGML_CCACHE=OFF because a container build layer has no persistent ccache
-#     directory to hit; on, it only writes a useless one.
-#   GGML_OPENMP=ON is what makes the runtime need libgomp1 (installed below).
-#   GGML_BACKEND_DL=OFF / GGML_CPU_ALL_VARIANTS=OFF: upstream's images build
-#     every x86 ISA as a loadable backend so one image runs anywhere. This one
-#     is built on the machine that runs it, so the single native CPU backend is
-#     what was measured. That is also why no -DGGML_NATIVE is passed: ggml
-#     defaults it ON outside wasm/cross-compiles, i.e. -march=native for THIS
-#     host — correct while build host == run host, wrong if anyone ever builds
-#     this image elsewhere, which is why the fleet builds it on Dankclaw.
-#   CUDA/HIP/METAL/SYCL/RPC stay OFF, VULKAN is ON: the endpoint computes on the
-#     gfx1151 iGPU (decision and co-tenancy gates:
-#     report/tts-npu-spike-verdict-2026-10-19.md, shape in [[Frank TTS Engine]]).

-#
-# BUILD SHARED LIBS, RUNTIME SMALL. BUILD_SHARED_LIBS defaults ON on Linux, so
-# tts-server links libggml*.so rather than swallowing them; the runtime stage
-# copies the binary and its shared objects out of the build tree and points

-(silent fallback is how a wrong-voice endpoint stays wrong for weeks). A request
-that names NO voice at all takes ``$DEFAULT_VOICE``: that is a spoken choice in
-the env file rather than a surprise in the code, and the journal marks it
-``(default)`` so a name nobody asked for is never mistaken for one that was.
-
-Two backends sit behind the one surface, chosen by ``TTS_BACKEND``:
-
-``omni-http``
-    Forward to an OpenAI-shaped upstream TTS server (``$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.

-# 5916bf7c79dbb4e66fc059cdc507a79a23a28bb4) built into an image by
-# dankclaw/voiceservice/Containerfile.engine, running its resident `tts-server`
-# with the 1.7 B base talker Q4_K_M and the Q8_0 12 Hz tokenizer loaded ONCE at
-# startup. It is deliberately NOT a fleet endpoint: the endpoint consumers
-# address is **frank-tts on 7772** ([[Frank TTS]]), which resolves voice names,
-# re-encodes to mp3 and owns the timeout budget. Runbook: [[Frank TTS Engine]].
-#
-# WHY THIS ENGINE (Frank's call, 2026-10-18, criterion "whatever is better for
-# live output"): server-side time-to-first-audio 94-112 ms (86-451 ms end to
-# end through the façade), streaming that stays ahead of real time at warm RTF
-# 0.55-0.67, and a run-to-run spread of +-0.01 — against the mainline CLI path's
-# 0.93-0.99 at +-0.25, which crosses 1.0 often enough to stall a live stream.
-# The A/B that decided it is "Decision: arm A for live output" in
-# [[Local TTS and Voice Cloning]].
-#
-# IMAGE. Built locally by deploy-remote.sh (build_compose_image), like
-# loki/alloy/frank-tts. `Pull=never` plus the `localhost/` prefix are required:
-# this host's quadlet path cannot resolve a locally built tag from local storage
-# otherwise. The build is a network operation (it clones the pinned commit) and
-# is skipped when the Containerfile hash label already matches.
-#
-# NETWORK, AND WHY IT PUBLISHES NOTHING. The container sits on exactly one
-# network: the private `frank-tts-engine.network` (10.89.5.0/24). The façade
-# joins the same network and dials `http://frank-tts-engine:8880` — the
-# container DNS name, on the network that owns it. There is no `PublishPort` of
-# any kind, not even `127.0.0.1:8880`, and the reason is the lesson that 502'd
-# hermes: netavark DNATs published ports only, so a host-loopback publish is not
-# a path to a peer container — the façade could never have used it, and a bridge
-# container cannot reach the host's own loopback bind either (see
-# [[Container Network Namespaces]]). A publish would therefore buy exactly one
-# thing: an extra reachable surface on an engine that has no authentication, on
-# a box whose CPU is also carrying the text endpoints. Diagnostics do not need
-# it either — `podman exec frank-tts-engine curl http://127.0.0.1:8880/health`
-# speaks to the server from inside its own namespace, which is where the address
-# is valid.
-#
-# MEMORY / THE RENDER NODE. Host RSS is ~1.7 GiB, not the size of the GGUFs:
-# the Vulkan backend copies both tensors into device memory at load, so they
-# stop counting in the process's RSS (measured after the 2026-10-19 cutover —
-# `podman stats` / `ps -o rss`). No memory limit is set: the box has the room
-# and a limit would convert a busy moment into an OOM kill mid-utterance.
-#
-# `AddDevice=/dev/dri` is what makes the iGPU visible; without it the Vulkan
-# ICD enumerates nothing and the server dies on device lookup after it has
-# already read both GGUFs. `GroupAdd=keep-groups` is belt-and-braces, not the
-# thing that works here: the units podman spawns carry no supplementary groups
-# at all, and this host grants render access a different way — the udev rule
-# that makes the render nodes world-writable (same rule ComfyUI rides, see
-# dankclaw/comfyui). Measured: `id` inside this container lists only the
-# container's own group, and `tts-server` still holds renderD129.
-# The node is NOT named: this host is hybrid, renderD128 is the NVIDIA card and
-# renderD129 the amdgpu iGPU, so a node number in the unit is a guess that a
-# re-probe can invalidate, while the directory hands the container every render
-# node and the driver picks by name.
-#
-# /dev/kfd stays absent on purpose: that is the ROCm compute interface, owned by
-# the engines that use HIP. A Vulkan endpoint has no use for it, and handing a
-# container a second way onto the GPU is surface for nothing.
-#
-# THE VOICE MOUNT IS READ-ONLY AND IS FOR THE WARMER, NOT THE ENGINE. A voice
-# becomes known to the engine only through POST /v1/audio/voices, and the
-# registration is MEMORY ONLY — it does not survive a restart, which is exactly
-# why the warm hook below runs on every start. That hook runs INSIDE this
-# container (see ExecStartPost), so it reads the packs at /voices; `tts-server`
-# itself never opens the directory, it receives the reference audio as base64 in
-# the registration body. The façade mounts the same host directory read-only for
-# its own name list, so one directory stays the single source of a voice name.
-#
-# REGISTRY LAW, THE REASON EXECSTARTPOST EXISTS. The voice registry is memory
-# only: a restart forgets every voice, and re-registering does not warm one —
-# only synthesizing does — so a boot without this hook leaves the façade
-# answering 400 for every name. The per-voice cold penalty is real but small, and
-# not the trial's 6.2-8.0 s: measured on the built container 2026-10-18 against an
-# empty registry, the first synthesis of a freshly registered voice cost 1,883 ms
-# against 1,226-1,283 ms for the requests after it. The warm pass runs serially
-# (two short syntheses per voice, ~5 s each) and `TimeoutStartSec=900` keeps a growing library from
-# tripping systemd's default 90 s start deadline. The leading `-` on
-# ExecStartPost is load-bearing: with `Restart=always`, a warmer that exits
-# non-zero (a pack missing its reference.wav, the engine still loading past the
-# warmer's own patience) would restart the whole container and crash-loop the
-# endpoint forever. A failed warm must be a journal line, not a restart.
-#
-# The hook is `podman exec`, not a host script, because there is no address the
-# host could dial: this container publishes nothing (above). Exec-ing into it
-# also means the warmer inherits this unit's EnvironmentFile, so every knob it
-# has lives in scripts/frank-tts-engine.env beside the engine's own, and it sees
-# the same /voices and 127.0.0.1:8880 the engine does.
-#
-# HEALTH. `GET /health` answers `{"status":"ok"}` from the HTTP thread, not the
-# synthesis queue, so a busy engine still reads healthy and a dead one does not.
-# HealthStartPeriod covers the first model load. The command is argument-only
-# and needs /bin/sh — the generator wraps HealthCmd as CMD-SHELL — so the image
-# installs curl (see the opposite case in dankclaw/loki, whose distroless base
-# has no shell).

-# WHY A PRIVATE BRIDGE FOR A PAUSE THAT LOOKS PUBLIC-FACING. frank-tts (:7772,
-# published, the one endpoint consumers address) and frank-tts-engine (:8880,
-# never published, the arm A qwentts.cpp server behind it) could both have
-# stayed on the fleet-wide dankclaw_default and resolved each other by name.
-# They are split off anyway, for two reasons:
-#
-# 1. THE HOST-LOOPBACK TRAP. The phase-1 shape in `scripts/frank-tts.env` still
-#    names `host.containers.internal:8880` as the upstream, on the assumption the
-#    engine runs on the host and publishes `127.0.0.1:8880`. That cannot work:
-#    netavark DNATs published ports only, a published port is not on any podman
-#    bridge, and a container cannot reach the host's own loopback bind — the same
-#    shape that 502'd hermes, and the reason the signal-relay hop needs a host LAN
-#    bind instead ([[Container Network Namespaces]], [[Homepage Status Probes]]).
-#    Putting both containers on one committed network removes the guess: the
-#    façade dials the engine's container DNS name on the network that owns it, and
-#    the engine publishes nothing at all.
-#
-# 2. THE ENGINE HAS NO AUTH AND NO QUEUE LIMIT WORTH THE NAME. `tts-server`
-#    answers anyone who can open a socket, and at `--max-batch 1` a second
-#    caller simply waits behind the first. Left on dankclaw_default every
-#    container on that net — open-webui, hermes, the *arr proxies — could drive
-#    a CPU synthesiser that occupies every other core on a box that also serves
-#    two text endpoints. On this bridge the only dialer is frank-tts: the engine
-#    publishes no port, so not even the host has an address to reach it at, and
-#    diagnostics go through `podman exec` instead.
-#
-# Kernel bridge, not slirp4netns: the 2026-08-22 open-webui incident (a dead
-# per-container userspace helper left a container that accepted TCP and reset
-# every request for two days, logging nothing). A bridge has no such helper.

-# WHAT IT IS. The fleet's one OpenAI-compatible speech endpoint: consumers

-# TTS_BACKEND in scripts/frank-tts.env picks between forwarding to the
-# OpenAI-shaped engine (`frank-tts-engine`, [[Frank TTS Engine]]) 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. TWO attached networks, and the order is the one the open-notebook
-# pair uses: `dankclaw_default` first (the default route, and where consumers
-# live — they reach the published 7772, and open-notebook dials
-# `http://frank-tts:7772/v1` by container name), then the voice pair's private
-# bridge, `frank-tts-engine.network`, where the arm A engine lives. The shim's
-# upstream is therefore the engine's container DNS name
-# (`http://frank-tts-engine:8880`, scripts/frank-tts.env) and NOT
-# host.containers.internal: netavark DNATs published ports only, so a bridge
-# container cannot reach a host-loopback bind — the shape that 502'd hermes —
-# and the engine publishes nothing at all. That file MUST be installed beside
-# this unit (the engine's handler does it; the façade handler re-installs it for
-# `--only frank-tts`), because with a referenced Network= file missing the v1
-# generator refuses to produce this container unit at all.
-#
-# ORDERING. Wants+After on frank-tts-engine.service, not Requires: the façade
-# has a second backend (`TTS_BACKEND=llama-tts-cli`) that needs no upstream, and
-# an engine that will not start must not take this endpoint's unit down with it.
-# When both boot, this comes up after the engine, whose ExecStartPost warm pass
-# is part of its start — so the first request of the day meets a REGISTERED voice
-# (the registry is memory-only) rather than a 400, and skips the ~0.6 s penalty
-# the first synthesis of an unwarmed voice costs.
-#
-# 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

-#                    aimed at the operator.
-#
-# --device IS here, but conditionally: it reaches the binary only when

-# takes its own default device, which is CPU because the CPU backend is always

-# (dankclaw/voiceservice/Containerfile.engine).
-#
-# WHO RUNS IT. Two callers, same binary:
-#
-#   1. The Quadlet unit, as
-#      `ExecStartPost=-/usr/bin/podman exec frank-tts-engine /app/warm-voices.sh`
-#      — after every start of the container, including every boot.
-#      `podman exec` rather than a host script because the engine publishes no
-#      port at all, so there is no address the host could dial; and because an
-#      exec inherits the unit's EnvironmentFile, which is what puts every knob of
-#      this script in scripts/frank-tts-engine.env next to the engine's own.
-#   2. scripts/deploy-remote.sh's deploy_frank_tts_engine, once per deploy, so a
-#      voice that did not warm becomes a deploy result instead of only a journal
-#      line (the unit's `-` prefix deliberately cannot fail the unit).
-#
-# WHY IT EXISTS AT ALL (the registry law). The voice registry is MEMORY ONLY: a
-# restart forgets every voice, and re-registering a voice does not warm it — only
-# synthesizing does. A boot that registers nothing therefore leaves frank-tts
-# answering 400 for every name, so this script registers every pack it finds. The
-# per-voice cold penalty is real but small, and smaller than the trial reported:
-# measured on the deployed build 2026-10-18 against an empty registry, the FIRST
-# synthesis of a freshly registered voice cost 1,883 ms against 1,226-1,283 ms for
-# the requests after it — about 0.6 s, not the trial's 6.2-8.0 s. Each voice gets
-# two identical requests so the journal carries both numbers, `voice <name>
-# cold=…ms warm=…ms`; cold ≈ warm is the expected shape, and a large gap is what
-# would mean the snapshot path is broken.
-#
-# THE VOICES. /voices — the host directory /home/dank/voices mounted read-only by
-# the unit, the same packs frank-tts mounts for its own name list. A pack is a
-# directory that contains reference.wav; everything else in it (manifest.json, the
-# engine's reference.spk / reference.rvq extraction, a 16 kHz variant) is not read
-# here. The registration payload is `{"name": <dir>, "wav_b64": <base64 of
-# reference.wav>}` with NO ref_text, which selects the embedding-only (x-vector)
-# voice — the shipped default, warm RTF ~0.57-0.63 against ICL's 0.67, and the one
-# this fleet can produce honestly because it has no trustworthy transcript for the
-# audition crops. Adding ref_text (with the codes) would flip that voice to
-# in-context-learning mode: better fidelity on a good transcript, slower, and only
-# worth it for batch work like a podcast render. That is a per-voice opt-in this
-# script deliberately does NOT exercise, and the door stays open: a pack that
-# wants ICL needs its text in the pack plus one key in the payload below.

-#    2026-10-18 against the image's pinned base, `WARM_TEXT="…"` reaches the
-#    container WITH its quotes. Unwrapped only when the whole value is exactly one
-#    quoted string (starts AND ends with `"` and holds no quote inside), so a
-#    sentence that legitimately contains quotes is never mangled.
-# 2. Escape the two characters that would corrupt or end a JSON string: a
-#    backslash, and a double quote.
-#
-# Without step 1 the body is `{"input":""Warm up…"",…}`, the engine's JSON parser
-# rejects it, every voice stays cold, and the boot still reads healthy. Voice NAMES

-# XDNA2 NPU inference runtimes on Linux (Strix Halo) — can any of them serve TTS?
-
-Research slice, 2026-10-19. Worker: `NpuRuntimeLandscape`. Research only, no code.
-Question: every way to execute model inference on an AMD XDNA2 NPU on Linux as of
-2026-10, and whether any of them can serve a speech-synthesis model.
-
-> **Status, same night — the spike that followed this slice settled it.** NO-GO on the
-> NPU (the loader declines the graph, not the silicon); the actionable door is the gfx1151
-> iGPU behind `-DGGML_VULKAN=ON`. Measured contract, exoneration chain and host gates:
-> `tts-npu-spike-verdict-2026-10-19.md`. That page supersedes §8–§9 below.
-
-Convention: vendor claims carry URL + the version/date they hold for.
-**[host]** = Dankclaw state verified on the live machine 2026-10-19 (Main), not a
-vendor claim. `[INFERENCE]` = my deduction from the cited artifacts.
-
-## 0. Answers to the three questions Main ranked
-
-**(1) A runtime that already runs TTS on XDNA2 today: it exists at AMD, not on our
-host.** Ryzen AI Software **1.8.0** (docs `latest` == 1.8.0; released 2026-07-23)
-lists `neutts-air` and `neutts-nano` as model type **TTS**, variant
-*full-optimized* (NPU-only) — <https://ryzenai.docs.amd.com/en/latest/llm_list.html>;
-release note "New TTS model support: neutts-air, neutts-nano" —
-<https://ryzenai.docs.amd.com/en/latest/relnotes.html>. Pre-compiled artifacts are
-published: `amd/neutts-air_rai_1.8.0_npu_4K` (arch `qwen2`, lastModified
-2026-07-23, Apache-2.0, "AWQ / Group 128 / Asymmetric / BFP16 activations / UINT4
-Weights") and `amd/neutts-nano_rai_1.8.0_npu_4K` (arch `llama`).
-**Neither artifact is a TTS engine.** Both file lists are LM-only (`model.onnx`,
-`genai_config.json`, BPE tokenizer, AIE-ML compiler metastate: `dd_metastate_*`
-`.ctrlpkt/.super/.state`, `cache/txn_bins.zip`) with **no codec, no vocoder, no
-reference-audio encoder**. [INFERENCE from HF file lists]
-
-**(2) FastFlowLM: no TTS, and we cannot add one** — see §2. Halogen: no TTS entry
-**[host]**. So "something installed already serves TTS on the NPU" is FALSE.
-
-**(3) Our own ONNX graph compiled for the NPU on Linux:** possible for the plain
-ONNX flows (they compile on Linux), **impossible for a new LLM/OGA model** — model
-generation is Windows-only in 1.8.0 — and gated by an operator table where BF16

-## 1. Landscape: every way to reach the XDNA2 array on Linux
-
-| # | Path | License | Strix Halo + Linux, 2026-10 | Speech synthesis |
-|---|------|---------|------------------------------|------------------|
-| 1 | Ryzen AI SW → ONNX Runtime + Vitis AI / Ryzen AI EP; compile INT8 (`X2`) or BF16 (`VAIML`) ONNX at session creation | AMD proprietary (tarball) | supported: our device ID/rev is in AMD's STX table; compile+run works on Linux (§3, §4) | user-authored ONNX only; no TTS recipe/demo |
-| 2 | Same EP driven by **OGA** (`onnxruntime-genai`), "full fusion" NPU-only LLM flow; runner = AMD `model_benchmark` / OGA C++ API | AMD + MS OGA | Linux: **vendor-precompiled models only**, no hybrid flow | **neutts-air / neutts-nano = TTS** (LM half) |
-| 3 | **FastFlowLM** `flm` | MIT + free proprietary kernels | Strix Halo "Supported"; Ubuntu 24.04/25.10/**26.04**, Arch | none (ASR input only) |
-| 4 | **IRON / mlir-aie** + Peano → hand-written AIE-ML design → XRT/`amdxdna` | Apache-2.0 + LLVM exception | explicitly documented "AMD Ryzen™ AI on Linux"; same driver/XRT stack | anything, hand-written; nothing ships TTS |
-| 5 | Vendor-curated AIE-ML graph sets (halogen `HALOGEN_NPU_MODELS`, FLM packs) | vendor | present **[host]** | none **[host]** |
-| 6 | Windows-only: DirectML, Ryzen AI Windows EP (`ryzenai-llm`), Studio Effects, `whispercpp` NPU | — | not usable | (per Lemonade matrix: Windows only) |
-| 7 | ggml/llama.cpp/**qwentts.cpp**, whisper.cpp, sherpa-onnx, Piper | — | no XDNA backend in ggml/ORT-mainline | CPU / iGPU only |
-| 8 | IREE, TVM, ONNX Runtime mainline EPs (OpenVINO = Intel NPU, MIGraphX/ROCm = AMD GPU) | — | no XDNA2 target; AMD's NPU EP is only "Xilinx Vitis-AI (preview)" in the ORT EP list and ships inside AMD's own build | n/a |

-## 2. FastFlowLM (`/usr/bin/flm` 1.0.1 **[host]**) — catalog + HTTP surface
-
-* Repo moved into AMD's ROCm org **2026-08-11** (`github.com/ROCm/FastFlowLM`,
-  v1.0.0). "Supports all Ryzen™ AI Series chips with XDNA2 NPUs (Strix, Strix Halo,
-  Kraken, and Gorgon Point)."
-  <https://github.com/ROCm/FastFlowLM> (README fetched 2026-10-19).
-* Linux support landed 2026-03; distros: Ubuntu 24.04, 25.10, **26.04**, Arch,
-  generic. Needs NPU firmware ≥ 1.1.0.0, kernel **7.0+** with `amdxdna` (or
-  `amdxdna-dkms`), XRT stack (`ppa:lemonade-team/stable` → `libxrt-npu2`,
-  `amdxdna-dkms`); `flm validate` reads the DRM path (`/dev/accel/accel0`), `flm
-  run` goes through **XRT** and fails with `No such device with index '0'` unless
-  `xrt-smi examine` lists the NPU; `memlock` must be raised.
-  <https://fastflowlm.com/docs/install_lin/> (page dated 2026-03-05, fetched
-  2026-10-19). Static build bundles **XRT v2.21.75** — the same XRT series as the
-  distro package on the host **[host]**.
-* HTTP surface: `flm serve <model>` → OpenAI-compatible REST, **port 52625**, no
-  auth. Maintained endpoints: `v1/models`, `v1/chat/completions`,
-  `v1/audio/transcriptions`, `v1/embeddings`. **There is no
-  `/v1/audio/speech`.**
-  <https://fastflowlm.com/docs/instructions/server/openapi/>
-* Catalog 2026-10-19 (<https://fastflowlm.com/docs/models/>): LLaMA, DeepSeek,
-  Qwen, Gemma, MedGemma, TranslateGemma, gpt-oss, LiquidAI/LFM, Phi, Nanbeige,
-  **Whisper — card states "Type: Speech-to-Text (ASR)"**
-  (<https://fastflowlm.com/docs/models/whisper/>), EmbeddingGemma, SmolVLA,
-  Hy-MT2, MiniCPM. No speech-synthesis entry.
-* Engines are **prebuilt, closed, downloaded from Hugging Face per architecture**
-  ("Internet access to HuggingFace is required to download the optimized model
-  kernels"). The only in-tree engine build is Gemma-4E
-  (`cmake --preset linux-default -DFLM_BUILD_GEMMA4E=ON`).
-  → **A new TTS architecture cannot be added to `flm` by us.**

-## 3. AMD Ryzen AI Software 1.8.0 on Linux — install source, device support
-
-* **Install channel (important correction to the pypi.amd.com evidence).** The pip
-  index is Windows-only for the EP runtime (`ryzenai_dynamic_dispatch-1.7.0-…
-  win_amd64.whl`, `onnxruntime_vitisai-1.23.2-…win_amd64.whl`; `flexmlrt` has a
-  single **linux_aarch64** wheel) — but AMD's Linux stack is not on pip. It ships
-  as a tarball that is, as of 2026-10-19, **publicly reachable without an AMD
-  account**: `https://download.amd.com/opendownload/RyzenAI/1.8.0/ryzen_ai-1.8.0.tgz`
-  → HTTP 206 on a range probe, `Content-Range: bytes 0-8/**7819506855**`
-  (**≈7.8 GiB**, magic `1f 8b 08` = gzip). (The docs link it behind the
-  EULA form `account.amd.com/...ryzenai-eula-public-xef.html`; the CDN path
-  serves it directly. Verified by me with curl 2026-10-19. I did not finish
-  downloading 7.8 GiB, so the tarball's *contents* list is unverified —
-  `[INFERENCE]` only where noted.)
-* Driver/XRT package (public, 90,016,137 bytes, `application/zip`):
-  `https://download.amd.com/opendownload/RyzenAI/Driver/RAI_1.8_Linux_NPU_XRT.zip`
-  contains `xrt_202620.2.25.37_24.04-amd64-{base,base-dev,npu}.deb` +
-  `xrt_plugin.2.25.260102.56.release_24.04-amd64-amdxdna.deb` (verified by
-  download + unpack). **The plugin deb ships firmware for
-  `/usr/lib/firmware/amdnpu/17f0_11/npu.dev.sbin`** — exactly the directory our
-  NPU loads **[host]** — plus `1502_00`, `17f0_10`, `17f1_10`, `17f1_13`,
-  `libvxdna.so`, `libxrt_driver_xdna.so.2.25.260102.56`, and the DKMS driver
-  source tarball. **No xclbin/PDI and no compiler binary in this package**: it is
-  driver + XRT shim + firmware only.
-* **Our device is officially STX.** AMD's APU table
-  (<https://ryzenai.docs.amd.com/en/latest/app_development.md#apu-types>):
-  `0x1022:0x17F0 rev 0x11 → STX` (0x00/0x10 also STX, 0x20 = KRK, `0x1502` rev 0
-  = PHX/HPT). Release notes: "Strix and **Strix Halo** as STX", and the STX/KRK
-  column enables CNN INT8, CNN BF16, NLP BF16, LLM (OGA).
-* Vendor driver source (same deb, `share/amdxdna/amdxdna.tar.gz`, source dated
-  2026-06-29) maps `0x17f0 rev 0x11 → dev_npu5_info`, `.fw_path =
-  "amdnpu/17f0_11/"`, `default_vbnv = "RyzenAI-npu5"`, and the revision→name table
-  has `{ AIE2_DEV_REVISION_HALO, "NPU Strix Halo" }`; `xrt-smi examine` therefore
-  reports the device as **NPU Strix Halo**.
-* Linux install recipe (1.8.0 docs
-  <https://ryzenai.docs.amd.com/en/latest/linux.html>): Ubuntu 24.04 packages,
-  **Python 3.12** (`apt install python3.12 python3.12-venv`),
-  `libboost-filesystem1.74.0`, dkms; then `install_ryzen_ai.sh -a yes -p <venv>`;
-  `LD_LIBRARY_PATH=…:${RYZEN_AI_INSTALLATION_PATH}/onnxruntime/lib/`;
-  `quicktest.py` "picks up a simple CNN model, **compiles it** and runs on AMD's
-  Neural Processing Unit" — i.e. **compilation runs on Linux** for the non-LLM
-  flows. "Linux currently supports NPU only flow" (no iGPU EP).
-  Host friction: our box is Ubuntu 26.04 + **Python 3.14** **[host]**, so the venv
-  must be built with a 3.12 interpreter and the packages are 24.04-built
-  `[INFERENCE]`.
-* LLM flow on Linux
-  (<https://ryzenai.docs.amd.com/en/latest/llm_linux.html>): prequantized
-  ready-to-run models from HF, `deployment/lib`,
-  `RYZENAI_EP_PATH=$PWD/deployment/lib/libonnxruntime_providers_ryzenai.so`,
-  run via the `model_benchmark` binary; **"Linux does not support Hybrid flow"**;
-  **"Model generation is not supported in current release"** (repeated in
-  relnotes 1.8 Known Issues: "Models generated on Windows are compatible with
-  Linux"); needs `memlock unlimited`.
-  Sample throughput in that doc: **49.1 tokens/s decode**, 753 tokens/s prefill
-  (Phi-3.5-mini, 4K model).
-* Third-party confirmation of the OS split: Lemonade's backend matrix
-  (<https://raw.githubusercontent.com/lemonade-sdk/lemonade/main/README.md>,
-  fetched 2026-10-19) — `flm`/npu/XDNA2 = **Windows, Linux**;
-  `ryzenai-llm`/npu = **Windows only**; `whispercpp`/npu (STT) = **Windows only**;
-  text-to-speech engines `kokoro` and `acestep` = metal / cuda / vulkan / rocm,
-  **no npu device at all**. Lemonade is the "Server Interface" layer of AMD's own
-  Ryzen AI stack (docs index), so this matrix is the vendor-sanctioned view.

-## 4. Can we compile our own graph on Linux? (the no-recipe path)
-
-Mechanics from <https://ryzenai.docs.amd.com/en/latest/modelrun.md> (1.8.0):
-ONNX only, opset 17 recommended; the EP compiles on first `InferenceSession` and
-caches (VitisAI EP cache, or ORT **EP context cache** — `ep.context_enable`, and
-"precompile the EP context model using Python and deploy it using a C++ program"
-is explicitly supported); EP auto-partitions unsupported nodes to CPU;
-BF16 = `target VAIML` (`preferred_data_storage: unvectorized` for transformers),
-BF16 **STX/KRK-or-newer only**; INT8 = `target=X2` with XINT8/A8W8/A16W8 and
-"general asymmetric quantization … to enable third-party quantized models";
-**deployment EP cannot compile BF16 on the fly** — ship a pre-compiled model
-(<https://ryzenai.docs.amd.com/en/latest/app_development.md>);
-cache dirs are not portable across EP or NPU-driver versions.
-
-Operator coverage is the hard gate
-(<https://ryzenai.docs.amd.com/en/latest/ops_support.md>, "operators supported in
-Ryzen AI 1.8.0"; "Y" = broad coverage, some configurations may still fail):
-
-* Good for TTS front-ends/vocoders: `ConvTranspose` **Y in BF16/A16W8/A8W8**
-  (absent only from XINT8), `Conv`, `Resize`, `Upsample`, `Pad`, `LSTM` (BF16),
-  `CumSum` (BF16/XINT8), `STFT` (XINT8 only).
-* **Blockers for a decoder-style transformer in the plain flows:** in **BF16** the
-  table has **no Softmax, no LayerNormalization, no Relu/Gelu**; LayerNorm is
-  XINT8-only and Softmax is A16W8/A8W8/XINT8-only. So attention either lives in
-  the **LLM/OGA flow** (whose op set is exactly
-  `SimplifiedLayerNormalization`, `SkipSimplifiedLayerNormalization`, `MatMulNBits`
-  (W4ABF16/W4ABFP16), `RotaryEmbedding`, **`GroupQueryAttention`**, `Sigmoid`,
-  `Mul`, `Add`) or must be decomposed into a quantized INT8 flow.
-* Missing entirely: `GRU`, `Trilu`, `OneHot`, `EyeLike`, `Multinomial`,
-  `NonMaxSuppression`, `CastLike`, `MelWeightMatrix`/`MelFilterGroup`,
-  `RMSNormalization` → graphs that emit them must be rewritten before they
-  partition onto the NPU. [INFERENCE from absence in the table.]
-* Quantization is a separate tool, not in the driver package: **AMD Quark**
-  (`quark.torch` / `quarkonnx`), which documents `ConvTranspose2d`, `conv1d`,
-  softmax/LayerNorm/BFP quantization (relnotes 1.3/1.2/1.1/0.9) — Quark is *not*
-  on pypi.org under the obvious names **[host probe]** and ships from AMD's
-  gated/pip-private channel.
-* **New LLM-shaped model (our Qwen-Talker analogue): Windows-only today.**
-  OGA model generation is not available on Linux in 1.8.0 (§3). So a *new*
-  speech-LM cannot be self-served onto the NPU on Linux without AMD (or a
-  Windows box) in the loop.
-* Practical shape cost: the neutts artifacts carry **one compiled variant per
-  padded sequence length** (128/256/512/768/1024/1536/2048/2304/3072/4096 for
-  prefill; 256…4096 for token-phase attention mask) — i.e. per-shape compile
-  artifacts are the norm for the LLM flow. [INFERENCE from the HF file list.]
-
-## 5. Does the AMD TTS artifact actually produce speech? (cloned-voice survival)
-
-NeuTTS is **LM + separate neural codec** ("Simple LM + codec architecture"),
-clone from ~3 s of reference audio, and the codec is **NeuCodec (50 Hz, single
-codebook)**: `neuphonic/neucodec` (PyTorch, encode+decode),
-`neucodec-onnx-decoder{,-int8}` (**decode only**), "Decoder-only (ONNX) codecs
-require **pre-encoded references** — these ship with the repo for all bundled
-voices." Phoneme input; 2048-token context ≈ 30 s of audio; NeuTTS-Air ~360 M
-active / 552 M with embeddings; upstream benchmarks are **CPU-only llama.cpp**
-(119 tok/s prefill/decode mix on a Ryzen 9 HX 370) and explicitly exclude the
-codec. <https://raw.githubusercontent.com/neuphonic/neutts/main/README.md>
-(fetched 2026-10-19); `neuphonic/neutts-air` HF metadata (lastModified
-2026-08-26, `qwen2`, GGUF + safetensors).
-
-Consequences for the fleet spike:
-
-1. AMD's NPU artifact = LM only; **waveform decode and reference encoding are CPU
-   work either way**. Our `reference.wav` voices survive only if we run the
-   NeuCodec **encoder** (PyTorch, per the codec table there is no ONNX encoder)
-   once per voice and then feed pre-encoded codes. That is a one-time offline
-   step per voice; after that the compiled graph takes codes/prompt prefix as
-   ordinary inputs, so nothing about the compiled graph forbids a caller-supplied
-   speaker prefix. `[INFERENCE]`
-2. Real-time math: 50 Hz codec means **≥50 tokens/s decode** for 1× RT. AMD's own
-   Linux sample output for a 4K Phi-3.5-mini is **49.1 tok/s** — so budget for
-   roughly RT-1× on one 4K "full fusion" graph, before the codec's CPU cost.
-   `[INFERENCE — different model; must be measured.]`
-3. Host RAM: the same doc reports **peak working set 3.54 GB** for that 4K model.
-   NeuTTS-Air is ~552 M params at W4A-BFP16, so expect a smaller footprint than
-   3.5 GB `[INFERENCE]`; still non-trivial against 14 GiB available **[host]**.
-4. AMD ships **no TTS demo, runner, or server** on any OS: the examples page has
-   only CNN/BF16/DistilBERT/super-resolution/OGA-LLM/VLM/RAG
-   (<https://ryzenai.docs.amd.com/en/latest/examples.md>); the RyzenAI-SW repo
-   tree (669 paths, `main`, fetched 2026-10-19) contains speech demos **only under
-   `Demos/ASR/{Whisper,Parakeet-TDT}` and `Transformer-examples/ASR/Whisper-AI`**
-   — no TTS directory. Serving TTS therefore means writing our own OGA host
-   (or driving `model_benchmark`-style C++ code) plus phonemizer + NeuCodec glue.
-
-## 6. Two graphs on one NPU, and the iGPU hazard
-
-* **Concurrency is a first-class driver feature.** The vendor `amdxdna` source
-  (in `xrt_plugin.2.25.260102.56`, 2026-06-29) sets `.hwctx_limit = 16` for
-  npu4/npu5 — i.e. **16 hardware contexts** on our device — and allocates each
-  context a set of AIE columns with QoS `opc = col_opc (4096) × num_col`
-  (`aie2_ctx.c`, `aie2_solver.h`), with `frame_boundary_preempt` /
-  `fill_preempt_slot` in `aie2_pci.h` (firmware preemption at frame boundaries).
-  So halogen's armed models and a TTS graph can hold separate contexts
-  simultaneously; they contend for columns and OPC share, they are not mutually
-  exclusive.
-* AMD's user-visible history agrees: 1.4 "Support for up to **16 hardware
-  contexts** on Ryzen AI 300 series"; 1.5 "Application concurrency: improves the
-  resource distribution across applications"; 1.3 "Idle detection and suspension
-  of contexts", "Rebalance feature for AIE hardware resource optimization";
-  1.0 known issue "Support for multiple applications is limited to up to eight"
-  (all in <https://ryzenai.docs.amd.com/en/latest/relnotes.html>).
-* **Package conflict, the real risk** [INFERENCE]: the vendor stack wants AMD's
-  XRT 2.25.37 + `xrt_plugin…amdxdna` deb **[host: distro `libxrt-npu2
-  1:2.21.75+dfsg-4` installed]**, and firmware must match the loaded `amdxdna.ko`
-  — the vendor README warns that a stale/mismatched `npu.sbin` causes
-  `ERT_CMD_ABORT`/mailbox timeouts, and that a distro **in-tree** `amdxdna` older
-  than the XRT SHIM makes `GET_ARRAY`/`QUERY_TELEMETRY` return
-  `EOPNOTSUPP`/`EINVAL` (<https://github.com/amd/xdna-driver> README,
-  fetched 2026-10-19). Installing AMD's debs over the distro XRT changes the ABI
-  under FastFlowLM/halogen, so the spike must decide the XRT version **once**, for
-  the whole host.
-* **iGPU / fabric clock:** no vendor document supports a fabric-clock pin, and no
-  vendor document addresses NPU+iGPU concurrency hangs. AMD's Strix Halo
-  optimization doc (ROCm docs, dated 2026-02-20, and its successor "AMD RDNA3.5
-  system optimization", ROCm 10.1.0) covers GPUVM/GART/GTT, the TTM `pages_limit`
-  knob, `amd-ttm`, BIOS VRAM sizing, and minimum kernel versions
-  (<https://rocm.docs.amd.com/en/docs-7.2.0/how-to/system-optimization/strixhalo.html>,
-  <https://rocm.docs.amd.com/en/latest/reference/system-optimization/rdna3-5.html>).
-  The `pp_dpm_fclk` level-7 pin and the GPU+NPU hang observation stay
-  fleet-observed **[host]**, i.e. `[INFERENCE]` territory — no citation exists.
-
-## 7. Paths I checked and ruled out (so nobody re-walks them)
-
-* **Windows-only doors**: DirectML; Ryzen AI Windows EP; Lemonade's
-  `ryzenai-llm` and `whispercpp`-NPU engines (matrix above); AMD's OGA model
-  generation. Not usable on Dankclaw.
-* **Mainline ONNX Runtime** has no AMD-NPU EP: its EP summary lists AMD ROCm and
-  AMD MIGraphX (GPU) and "Xilinx Vitis-AI (*preview*)" only
-  (<https://onnxruntime.ai/docs/execution-providers/>, 2026-10-19); the working
-  EP is AMD's own build (`libonnxruntime_providers_ryzenai.so` in the tarball's
-  deployment dir, per llm_linux).
-* **ggml / llama.cpp / qwentts.cpp**: no XDNA backend → the current engine
-  (`tts-server` on GGUF, CPU-only build **[host]**) cannot be "turned on" for the
-  NPU; migration means a different runtime, not a flag.
-* **`flm`**: catalog/engines are closed per-architecture (§2) — the cheapest door
-  by install cost, and it is not a door for TTS.
-* **IRON / mlir-aie** is the only open toolchain that documents running on the
-  Ryzen AI NPU from Linux ("A close-to-metal Python API for programming AMD Ryzen™
-  AI NPUs, built on an open-source MLIR-based compiler toolchain"; "Getting
-  Started for AMD Ryzen™ AI on Linux", Ubuntu 24.04/24.10, XRT from
-  `ppa:amd-team/xrt`: `libxrt2 libxrt-npu2 … amdxdna-dkms`, `render` group
-  required) — <https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Xilinx/mlir-aie/main/README.md>,
-  fetched 2026-10-19. This is how FLM's kernels were made ("Low-level kernels
-  optimized using IRON + AIE-MLIR", FLM README) — i.e. real, but it is
-  hand-written per-op tile programming, not a model compiler: writing a TTS model
-  here is a multi-month engineering project, not a migration.
-* **Embedded** Ryzen AI P100 support in the same Linux doc is irrelevant to STX.
-
-## 8. Recommendation implied by the above (for Main's spike)
-
-Spike the AMD path as decided, with these constraints planned in: Python 3.12 venv
-+ 24.04-built wheels on Ubuntu 26.04; one host-wide XRT decision (AMD 2.25.37 vs
-distro 2.21.75) with firmware/driver pairing checked via `xrt-smi examine` →
-"NPU Strix Halo"; 7.8 GiB tarball staged off the public CDN URL (§3); pre-encode
-each `reference.wav` with the **PyTorch** NeuCodec encoder because the ONNX codec
-is decoder-only; keep phonemizer + codec on CPU; measure decode tokens/s against
-the 50 Hz budget and peak RSS against the ~14 GiB headroom; expect to write the
-serving shell yourself (AMD ships `model_benchmark`, no TTS demo).
-
-## 9. Loose ends (not verified; I stopped on Main's stand-down)
-
-* Contents of `ryzen_ai-1.8.0.tgz` (7.8 GiB) — whether the Linux tarball contains
-  the AIE-ML compiler (`vaiml`, `aiecompiler_client`) for the *BF16/INT8* flows
-  and which Python wheels it carries. My statement that non-LLM compilation works
-  on Linux rests on AMD's own Linux doc ("quicktest.py … compiles it and runs on
-  … NPU"), not on the package contents. Download was killed mid-flight.
-* Whether AMD's `neutts` artifacts run correctly under the Linux `model_benchmark`
-  runner (the TTS rows are listed without OS qualifiers; no Linux TTS run is
-  documented anywhere in 1.8.0 docs).
-* Exact AIE column count/total `ncols` exposed for Strix Halo (driver reads it
-  from AIE metadata: `ndev->total_col = min(XRS_MAX_COL, ndev->aie.metadata.cols)`).

-# Qwen3-TTS payload + qwentts.cpp runtime: architecture and portability

-Research deliverable (no code). Slice: *what the fleet's TTS payload actually is, and how

-Evidence date: 2026-10-19. Everything below is grounded in:

- `github.com/ServeurpersoCom/qwentts.cpp` @ `5916bf7c79dbb4e66fc059cdc507a79a23a28bb4`
-  (2026-10-16, upstream HEAD on 2026-10-19) and its ggml submodule
-  `ServeurpersoCom/ggml` @ `cc5df49a6b878db2b68b9a7b45976e279594627d` (2026-10-16).
- The two GGUF files as they sit on Dankclaw (`/home/dank/models/Qwen3-TTS-GGUF/`), read
-  byte-for-byte from the live host.
- Upstream Qwen3-TTS model cards / release material.
-
-Status: COMPLETE for the assigned slice. ANSWER C was confirmed on the live host the same

-
-## 1. What the payload is
-
-Two files, both read byte-for-byte off the live host (`/home/dank/models/Qwen3-TTS-GGUF/`,
-owned `dank:dank`, mtimes 2026-10-18 18:31), both from
-`https://huggingface.co/Serveurperso/Qwen3-TTS-GGUF` (community converter, not Qwen):
-
-| file | bytes | GGUF | tensors | arch string | file_type |
-|---|---|---|---|---|---|
-| `qwen-talker-1.7b-base-Q4_K_M.gguf` | 1,219,245,248 | v3, kv=64 | 480 | `qwen3-tts` | `Q4_K_M` |
-| `qwen-tokenizer-12hz-Q8_0.gguf` | 291,150,624 | v3, kv=51 | 398 | `qwen3-tts-tokenizer` | `Q8_0` |
-
-`general.name` of the talker file is `Qwen3-TTS-12Hz-1.7B-base`; the header sizes add up
-to the file sizes (sum of tensor bytes + header + alignment padding), so nothing in these
-files is unaccounted for.
-
-### 1.1 Talker file (480 tensors)
-
-Three models in one container, per `docs/ARCHITECTURE.md` §GGUF layout
-(qwentts.cpp @ pinned commit) and confirmed by the tensor census:
-
-| prefix | tensors | bytes | what it is |
-|---|---|---|---|
-| `talker.*` | 316 | 1,061.9 MB | 28-layer Qwen3 decoder (hidden 2048, FFN 6144, 16 Q heads / 8 KV heads, head_dim 128, RoPE θ=1e6, RMS ε=1e-6, ctx 32768), text stream + codec stream summed, `codec_head` → 3072 codebook-0 logits |
-| `code_pred.*` | 88 | 114.8 MB | 5-layer Qwen3 MTP head (hidden 1024, FFN 3072, 15 acoustic codebooks × 2048), own KV cache |
-| `spk_enc.*` | 76 | 36.6 MB | ECAPA-TDNN speaker encoder (x-vector, base checkpoints only; mel → conv0 → 3 SE-Res2Net → MFA → ASP → 2048-d vector) |
-
-Dtype split (exact tensor byte sums): `q4_K` 250 tensors / 864.1 MB, `q6_K` 17 / 312.0 MB,
-`f32` 176 / 25.8 MB, `f16` 37 / 11.4 MB.
-
-Which tensors carry which quant is the load-bearing portability fact:
-
- `q6_K` (17): `talker.text_embd.weight [2048, 151936]` (255.3 MB), `talker.codec_embd.weight
-  [2048, 3072]`, and the 15 `code_pred.codec_embd.<g>.weight [2048, 2048]` embedding tables.
-  These are the llama.cpp `Q4_K_M` "embedding/output rows go to Q6_K" rule, applied to
-  embedding tables rather than to an `lm_head`.
- `q4_K` (250): every attention/FFN projection of the talker and of the code predictor.
-  Distinct matmul shapes: `[2048,2048]`×73, `[2048,1024]`×62, `[2048,6144]`×56,
-  `[6144,2048]`×28, `[1024,2048]`×20, `[1024,3072]`×10, `[1024,1024]`×10, `[3072,1024]`×5,
-  `[2048,3072]`×2, `[2048,151936]`×1. Every one is 2-D and ≥ 1024 on both axes — good
-  GEMM shapes, nothing exotic.
- `f32` (176) / `f16` (37): all of `spk_enc` (conv weights F16 because K=1/3/5 rows are not
-  block-alignable, per the converter's `should_quantize` policy in `tools/quantize.cpp` +
-  `quantize.sh`; every bias/norm/LayerScale vector F32), plus the talker/predictor norms and
-  the `text_proj` biases.
-
-Metadata the runtime actually reads (talker file): `qwen3-tts.num_code_groups=16`,
-`talker.vocab_size=3072`, `text_vocab_size=151936`, `text_hidden_size=2048`,
-`position_id_per_seconds=13`, `rope.mrope_section=[24,20,20]`, `mrope_interleaved=1`,
-the 7 codec special ids (pad 2148 / bos 2149 / eos 2150 / think 2154 / nothink 2155 /
-think_bos 2156 / think_eos 2157), `language_names` (10: chinese, english, german, italian,
-portuguese, spanish, japanese, korean, french, russian) with their codec ids, the text-side
-special ids (im_start 151644, im_end 151645, tts_pad 151671, tts_bos 151672, tts_eos 151673),
-the whole `generation_config.json` (do_sample, top_k 50, top_p 1.0, temperature 0.9,
-repetition_penalty 1.05, `subtalker_*` mirrors, max_new_tokens 8192), and an embedded
-**Qwen2 BPE tokenizer** (`tokenizer.ggml.model=gpt2`, 151,676 tokens, 151,291 merges,
-eos 151643) — that BPE block is 5.95 MB of the header, i.e. 49 % of the header is vocabulary.
-
-Two live-file details that contradict the upstream doc text (worth knowing when reading
-`docs/ARCHITECTURE.md`: the doc example block is stale against the shipped file):
-`mrope_interleaved` is **1** (doc shows `false`), and `spk_enc.sample_rate` is **24000**
-(doc says 16000). Doc also says "404 tensors on the 1.7B voice_design build" — the base
-build shipped here has 480 because it carries `spk_enc.*`.
-
-### 1.2 Tokenizer/codec file (398 tensors)
-
-One neural audio codec, 12.5 frames/s over 24 kHz mono, hop 1920, 16 codebooks × 2048
-entries (1 semantic + 15 acoustic). Dtype split: `f16` 50 / 143.6 MB, `q8_0` 110 / 76.9 MB,
-`f32` 238 / 70.7 MB. `tok_dec.*` 253 tensors / 201.3 MB, `tok_enc.*` 145 / 89.9 MB.
-
-Composition (metadata + tensor census, both files agree):
-
- **Encoder** (used only to make voice references, not on the synthesis hot path): SEANet
-  conv stack (init k=7, 4 stages with ratios 8/6/5/4 → cumulative 960×, 64→512 ch, final
-  k=3), an 8-layer transformer (hidden 512, 8 heads, head_dim 64, FFN 2048, RoPE 1e4,
-  LayerNorm+bias, GELU, LayerScale), a downsample conv k=4 s=2 (25 → 12.5 Hz), then the RVQ
-  argmin loop. Metadata records `encoder.num_quantizers=32` with
-  `encoder_valid_num_quantizers=16` — 16 codebooks are used, 16 are dead weight carried from
-  the upstream config.
- **Decoder** (the hot path: every generated frame): 16 codebook lookups + per-split
-  `output_proj` (256→512), `conv_pre`, an 8-layer transformer (hidden 512, 16/16 heads,
-  head_dim 64, FFN 1024, **sliding window 72**, RMSNorm, SwiGLU, LayerScale, input_proj
-  1024→512 / output_proj 512→1024), a ConvNeXt upampler (`upsampling_ratios=[2,2]`, causal
-  transposed convs + depthwise k=7), then a DAC-style decoder `dec.0..3`
-  (`upsample_rates=[8,5,4,3]`, channels 1536→768→384→192→96, `decoder_dim=1536`) whose blocks
-  are SnakeBeta → causal transposed conv (k = 2·stride) → 3 residual units (dilations 1/3/9)
-  → snake_post → conv_post k=7 → 96→1.
- All 32 codebook tensors are **F32, 67.1 MB total** (16 encode + 16 decode, `[256, 2048]`),
-  deliberately unquantized: the converter's `should_quantize` keeps RVQ codebooks and their
-  wrapping projections at F32 because nearest-neighbour lookup is sensitive to per-row
-  quantisation noise (`docs/ARCHITECTURE.md` "Quantisation policy"; mirrored in
-  `quantize.sh`). 49 of the codec's 55 3-D conv tensors are **F16** with non-alignable K
-  (7, 3, 2, 1, 16, 10, …) — they cannot be block-quantized at all.
- **No flow matching, no diffusion, no vocoder-with-ODE.** It is a pure RVQ codec
-  (Mimi/SoundStream/Mimi-style: SEANet + transformer + DAC decoder). That matters for the
-  NPU question: every component is convolution, attention, or embedding lookup.
-
-### 1.3 Where the payload came from, and what the official weights look like
-
-Official upstream (`huggingface.co/api/models`, retrieved 2026-10-19):
-
-| repo | last modified | license | weights |
-|---|---|---|---|
-| `Qwen/Qwen3-TTS-12Hz-1.7B-Base` | 2026-01-23 | apache-2.0 | `model.safetensors` BF16, 1,928,677,440 params, plus an embedded `speech_tokenizer/model.safetensors` |
-| `Qwen/Qwen3-TTS-12Hz-1.7B-CustomVoice` | 2026-01-29 | apache-2.0 | same layout, named-speaker tables |
-| `Qwen/Qwen3-TTS-12Hz-1.7B-VoiceDesign` | 2026-01-29 | apache-2.0 | 1.7B only |
-| `Qwen/Qwen3-TTS-12Hz-0.6B-Base` / `-0.6B-CustomVoice` | 2026-01-29 | apache-2.0 | narrow variant (hidden 1024) |
-| `Qwen/Qwen3-TTS-Tokenizer-12Hz` | 2026-01-29 | apache-2.0 | codec alone, F32, 170,557,441 params |
-
-So the GGUF is **not** the only public form: the safetensors are the canonical form
-(Apache-2.0, no separate community license risk), and the GGUF is a lossy re-quantization of
-them produced by the same author who wrote the runtime (`Serveurperso`), via
-`checkpoints.sh` → `convert.py` (F32 GGUF) → `quantize.sh` (BF16/Q8_0/Q4_K_M).
-Sizes to remember for any re-export: the talker container is 1.93 B params in BF16
-(that count includes the embedded codec), the codec alone is 170.6 M params in F32.
-
-**Portability consequence #1 — the GGUF is a dead end off-ggml.** Q4_K/Q6_K are ggml
-block formats (256-element super-blocks, F16 sub-block scales, 144 B / 210 B per block). No
-ONNX graph, no Vitis-AI/AIE-ML compiler, and no vendor NPU runtime consumes them; AMD's own
-quantizer works from ONNX (`ryzenai-quantize`, QDQ/QOP power-of-two — Ryzen AI Software
-1.8.0 release notes, https://ryzenai.docs.amd.com/en/latest/relnotes.html). Moving the
-payload to a non-ggml stack therefore means starting from the safetensors again, not
-converting the GGUF.
-
-**Portability consequence #2 — the quantization split is semantic, not cosmetic.** The
-converter keeps RVQ codebooks, `input_proj`/`output_proj` around them, and every 1-D and
-non-alignable-conv tensor out of the k-quants precisely because quantizing them breaks voice
-fidelity. Any re-quantization path (GPTQ/AWQ/QDQ-INT8/INT4 for an NPU compiler) inherits that
-constraint: the talker backbone is requantizable, the codec's codebook lookups and SnakeBeta
-convs are not, at least not without re-measuring voice quality.
-
-## 2. What the runtime is
-
-`qwentts.cpp` @ `5916bf7c` (2026-10-16, MIT; upstream model Apache-2.0) is a C++17 ggml
-application — 43 files under `src/` + `tools/`, three binaries (`qwen-tts`, `qwen-codec`,
-`tts-server`) over one public plain-C99 ABI (`src/qwen.h`, `qt_*`, `QT_ABI_VERSION`
-range-checked; `tests/abi-c.c` is compiled `-std=c99 -Wall -Werror -pedantic` on every
-build). It is not a llama.cpp derivative: it links ggml directly and builds its own graphs.
-
-Five graph families, and their shapes are the whole portability story:
-
-| graph | batch/time axis | notes |
-|---|---|---|
-| talker prefill | T = prompt length (hundreds–thousands) | summed text+codec embedding streams, 28-layer GQA decoder, KV cache |
-| talker decode | **T = 1 per audio frame** | 12.5 frames/s → 80 ms of audio per step; `codec_head` → 3072 logits |
-| code predictor (MTP) | **T = 1, 16 steps per frame** (2 prefill + 14 decode, cache reset every frame) | 5-layer decoder, 15 heads × 2048 |
-| speaker encoder | one pass per voice registration | ECAPA-TDNN with mel fused into the graph |
-| codec decode | offline: T = 300-frame chunks; streaming: **T = 1 frame** with persistent conv/KV-ring state | the streaming graph is built once with fixed topology so the CUDA graph cache stays in pure replay |
-
-Per generated frame the host therefore runs ~1 + 16 + 1 tiny graph computes for 80 ms of
-audio, and `tts-server` serializes synthesis FIFO (`--max-batch` defaults to 1, and the
-fleet runs it at 1). This is the archetypal latency-bound, bandwidth-bound,
-batch-1 workload; the only big-M matmuls in the whole system are the prefill and the
-chunked (buffered) codec decode.
-
-Op contract actually issued to ggml (`src/`, counted): `mul_mat` 77, `cont` 70, `add` 57,
-`mul` 40, `rms_norm` 22, `clamp` 15, `rope_ext` 12, `get_rows` 12, `set_rows` 8,
-`scale_bias` 6, `swiglu_split` 5, `sqr` 5, `mean` 5, `elu` 4, `col2im_1d` 4, `soft_max` 3,
-`conv_1d` 3, `im2col` 2, `cumsum` 2, `sin`, `sigmoid`, `tanh`, `div`, `argsort`, `transpose`,
-`permute`, `reshape/view`, plus the CPU-side Philox multinomial sampler.
-
-**No custom ggml op is required today.** The repo doc still says the fork "provides the two
-custom ops the codec needs: `GGML_OP_SNAKE` and `GGML_OP_COL2IM_1D`"; that is stale at the
-pinned commit. Verified 2026-10-19:
-
- the submodule `ServeurpersoCom/ggml` @ `cc5df49` is upstream `ggml-org/ggml` master
-  (`a05c992`, 2026-10-15) **+2 commits, 0 behind** (GitHub compare API), and
-  `include/ggml.h` is byte-identical to upstream master (`diff` empty);
- the 2 commits are `193e339` (2026-06-19) "cpu: add fused snake activation
-  (mul -> sin -> sqr -> mul -> add)" — a **CPU subgraph fusion**, not an op (the runtime
-  builds snake with `ggml_sin`/`ggml_sqr`/`ggml_mul`/`ggml_add` in `src/dac-decoder-v2.h:222`),
-  and `cc5df49` "sycl: fix get_rows on reordered quantized weights";
- `ggml_col2im_1d` is an **upstream ggml API** (same declaration, line 2097, in both trees);
-  the Vulkan backend fuses the snake chain through ggml's generic subgraph fuser
-  (`ggml-vulkan.cpp:14548 ggml_vk_can_fuse_snake`, `vulkan-shaders/snake.comp`).
-
-Consequence: any stock ggml build (upstream, or llama.cpp's vendored ggml) can execute this
-payload; only the CPU snake fusion is fork-specific, and it is a performance nicety.
-
-Backend/device support: every tool takes `--device <name>` (`CUDA0`, `Vulkan0`, `MTL0`,
-`CPU…`, default best available), resolved through the ggml backend registry; the deployed
-container turns CUDA/HIP/Vulkan/Metal/SYCL/RPC/BLAS all OFF and compiles the native-CPU
-backend with OpenMP, with CPU threads = `hardware_concurrency()/2` (`src/backend.h`).
-The registry in this ggml knows CPU, CUDA, Metal, SYCL, Vulkan, WebGPU, ZDNN, OpenCL,
-**Hexagon**, BLAS, RPC, VirtGPU, **CANN**, ZenDNN, **OpenVINO**, ET — and nothing AMD-NPU
-(no `xdna`/`aie`/`vitis`/`ryzen` string anywhere in the ggml tree).
-
-Voice handling (what the fleet depends on): the registry is **process RAM only**; a restart
-empties it, which is why the unit has a boot warmer. `POST /v1/audio/voices` accepts either
-`{name, ref_text, wav_b64}` (server extracts) or `{name, ref_text, spk_b64, rvq_b64}`
-(pre-extracted latents verbatim); `ref_text` present ⇒ ICL clone mode, absent ⇒ x-vector-only
-mode. `.spk` = the ECAPA x-vector; `.rvq` = 16 codes/frame packed 11 bits LSB-first
-(`src/rvq-file.h`). `wav` and `pcm` `response_format` are different audio at the same seed
-(buffered chunked decode vs stateful streaming decode) — the fleet already encodes that rule.
-
-Parity expectations for any port: the upstream harness matches the PyTorch reference per
-stage (embed cos 0.999988, all 28 hidden taps ≥ 0.999893, logits 0.999824) but explicitly
-reports free-run divergence (`CodesFull exact 4.96 %`, `Audio cos 0.095`) and explains why —
-one argmax tie at FP epsilon diverts the AR trajectory. So a migrated endpoint must be
-accepted by listening + per-stage cosine, never by waveform diff against today's audio.

-## 3. The three answers Main asked for
-
-### ANSWER A — Qwen3-TTS GGUF → ONNX: no, and it does not matter
-
-There is **no GGUF→ONNX path** and there will not be a useful one: GGUF is a weight
-container for ggml, its Q4_K/Q6_K block layouts have no ONNX consumer, and nothing in the
-GGUF carries the *graph* (the talker/predictor/codec structure lives in C++ code, only the
-op-level structure exists in ggml at runtime). But the GGUF is not the payload's only form —
-official Apache-2.0 safetensors are upstream, and **four independent ports of the full
-pipeline already exist**:
-
-| port | form | what it proves |
-|---|---|---|
-| `xkos/Qwen3-TTS-12Hz-1.7B-ONNX` (HF, updated 2026-03-03, apache-2.0) | FP16+FP32 ONNX, fp16/voice_clone + fp16/voice_design splits: `talker_decode.onnx`, `code_predictor.onnx`, `code_predictor_kv.onnx`, `code_predictor_embed_g0..15.onnx`, `text_embedding.onnx`, `codec_embedding.onnx`, shared `speaker_encoder.onnx`, `speech_tokenizer_encoder.onnx`, `speech_tokenizer_decoder.onnx`, `model_cache.npz` | every component of this architecture exports to ONNX, codec decoder included |
-| `zhangluoyang/qwen3-tts-onnxruntime` | export tooling + Python inference for Base/CustomVoice/VoiceDesign | the export is reproducible from the official checkpoints |
-| `Echo9Zulu/Qwen3-TTS-12Hz-CustomVoice-1.7B-INT8-OpenVINO`, `aurora2035/Qwen3-TTS-12Hz-0.6B-Base-OpenVINO-INT8` (2026-03) | OpenVINO IR, **INT8**: `talker`, `code_predictor`, `codec_embedding`, `text_model`, `openvino_speaker_encoder_model`, `speech_tokenizer/speech_decoder` | the talker and predictor INT8-quantize for an NPU-targeting stack |
-| `litert-community/Qwen3-TTS-12Hz-0.6B-Base` (2026-10-17, apache-2.0) | `qwen3_tts_int8.litertlm` / `_int4.litertlm` (LiteRT-LM `OmniEngine`), legacy split graphs `talker_int4.tflite` (prefill_32/prefill_128/decode signatures, KV 1024, blockwise-32 OCTAV INT4), `mtp_folded_int8.tflite` (16 inner steps × 5 layers folded into one graph, in-graph argmax+gather, GPTQ int8, ~5× faster), `codec_partA` (transformer, fp32) + `codec_partB` (conv upsampler, XNNPACK FORCE_FP16, ~2.5×, "ASR-identical") | an NPU/mobile compiler accepts the whole thing — at the price of graph splitting, static prefill buckets, and folding the per-frame inner loop |
-
-What the ports had to concede, and what any port inherits:
-
- the generation structure does not fit existing engine loops: LiteRT-LM's Engine "does not
-  support this generation structure yet", so their first shape was **three graphs + a
-  host-side loop**, and the MTP step was "invoked 17× per frame" until they folded it;
- per-step dispatch cost dominates: even on a Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 they keep the MTP
-  loop, text projection, embedding gathers and the codec on CPU "avoiding 16 synchronous
-  CPU↔GPU round-trips per 80 ms frame", putting only the 28-layer talker on the GPU;
- RTF on that hardware is **2.57–2.97 (Galaxy S26) and 5.65–8.48 (Pixel 10 Pro)** for the
-  0.6 B model, i.e. 2.6–8× slower than real time. Dankclaw's current CPU engine measures
-  **warm RTF 0.55–0.67 with TTFA 94–112 ms** on the 1.7 B model (fleet trial, 2026-10-18).
-  An NPU port is not "faster by default" for this workload; it has to beat that.
- quantize the LM (int8/int4: proven), keep the codec's codebook lookups and SnakeBeta convs
-  in fp16/fp32 (the LiteRT split does exactly this).
-
-So: the answer to "can the fleet's payload be exported" is *yes — from the safetensors, not
-from the GGUF*, and the work is a pipeline rewrite (multi-graph host loop, per-frame fold,
-static prefill buckets), not a conversion. That is the same conclusion NeuTTS-Air's
-precompiled-graph route encodes: on AMD's Linux stack the graph is vendor-curated, so the
-fleet chooses the model that AMD already compiled rather than compiling Qwen3-TTS.
-
-### ANSWER B — is there any ggml backend for an AMD NPU? Not upstream; three out-of-tree, none for TTS
-
-Checked against the trees today (2026-10-19), because this was the crux:
-
- **Nothing in-tree.** `ggml-org/llama.cpp` master (4,237 paths, GitHub tree API) contains no
-  `xdna`/`aie`/`vitis`/`ryzen` file or directory; the ggml backend set is CPU, BLAS, CUDA,
-  HIP, Metal, Vulkan, SYCL, OpenCL, WebGPU, MUSA, RPC, CANN (Ascend), **Hexagon** (Qualcomm),
-  OpenVINO (Intel CPU/GPU/NPU), ZenDNN, ZDNN, VirtGPU, ET. The deployed fork's registry
-  matches. The feature request "Feature Request: XDNA backend" (llama.cpp issue **#21725**,
-  opened 2026-04-10) is still **open**, 34 comments; the older #1499 was closed stale
-  2025-04-07. So Main's premise is confirmed: no ggml XDNA backend exists to flip a flag on.
- **`Cyronius/ggml-xdna`** — a real ggml backend (`XDNA0`) loaded into *stock* llama.cpp via
-  `GGML_BACKEND_PATH`, no fork. It does bfp16 (8-value blocks sharing an exponent) GEMMs from
-  GGUF weights, and is **prefill-only**: it takes only matmuls in prompt chunks ≥ 1024 tokens
-  (`GGML_XDNA_MIN_BATCH` default 1024, `GGML_XDNA_MIN_MFLOP` 256), attention and every decode
-  token stay on the Vulkan device; pinned to llama.cpp release b10944; tested on Strix Point
-  (HX 370) only — Strix Halo "should pass, but nobody has run it on one yet"; Linux support
-  new and untested on hardware by the author; needs `libxrt-npu2`, `/dev/accel/accel0`,
-  unlimited `memlock`. Best measured prefill gain 1.88× on a 27 B model; models under
-  2,048-wide **lose** (0.77× at width 1,536).
- **`BrandedTamarasu-glitch/OllamaAMDNPU`** — a llama.cpp fork with `-DGGML_XDNA=ON`,
-  explicitly targeting **Ryzen AI MAX / XDNA2 on Linux** (`/dev/accel/accel0`, XRT 2.21.75+,
-  amdxdna, unlimited memlock). It implements **only `GGML_OP_MUL_MAT`**, dispatched to
-  mlir-aie-compiled `.xclbin`s built per fixed tile shape (e.g. `M=2048 K=2048 N=64`,
-  int8 in / int32 out, per-row weight scales cached at first use), with a second slot for a
-  different K. Its own numbers on a Ryzen AI MAX 385 with Llama-3.1-8B Q4_K_M: NPU prefill
-  12–19 t/s vs **Vulkan iGPU 600–930 t/s**, NPU decode **0.65–1.40 t/s** ("Decode does not
-  use the NPU … M=1 per token, no xclbin covers it"), 0.6 % AIE utilization, and the stated
-  conclusion "**For LLaMA 8B on Strix Halo: use Vulkan exclusively**". Single-maintainer,
-  AI-assisted, self-measured — treat as a proof of concept, but it is the closest published
-  picture of what XDNA2 graph execution costs.
- Also referenced in the same thread: `Atomic-Germ/OpenFlowLM-Next` (whole-model NPU engine,
-  LLM-only — and slower than the iGPU in the same comparison), `GaTmaNnes/xdna2-`,
-  `hardWorker254/Npu-Embeddings-XDNA1` (adds Whisper ASR ops, NPU1/Linux). None is a TTS path.
-
-Why none of them would carry this workload even if installed: the TTS hot loop is **batch-1
-by construction** (one talker step + 16 predictor steps + one codec frame per 80 ms), which
-sits under every dispatch gate those backends define (≥1024 tokens / ≥32768 M·N·K / tile M
-covering only prefill), and the codec half of the pipeline is conv, col2im, gather and
-elementwise ops — not `MUL_MAT` — so it would fall back to CPU op-by-op. The NPU case for
-this host is therefore *not* "run Qwen3-TTS on the NPU"; it is "run a vendor-compiled AR TTS
-graph on the NPU", which is exactly the NeuTTS-Air spike.
-
-### ANSWER C — would `qwentts.cpp` build for the gfx1151 iGPU? Yes, via **Vulkan**, not HIP
-
- Upstream ships the build scripts and claims the backends: `buildvulkan.sh` ("AMD/Intel GPU
-  (Vulkan)"), `buildcuda.sh`, `buildsycl.sh`, `buildcpu.sh`, `buildall.sh` (all backends,
-  runtime dynamic loading), and README line 6 "runs on CPU, CUDA, Metal, Vulkan". CMake knobs
-  `GGML_VULKAN` / `GGML_HIP` / `GGML_SYCL` are the same ones the fleet's Containerfile turns
-  OFF, so the engine rebuild is a flag change: `-DGGML_VULKAN=ON` plus
-  `--device Vulkan0` on the same command line the unit runs today.
- The codec's exotic ops are covered by the Vulkan backend, which is the thing that decides
-  whether a GPU build is coherent: `vulkan-shaders/col2im_1d.comp`, `snake.comp`,
-  `swiglu*.comp`, `cumsum*.comp` exist and `supports_op` handles `GGML_OP_COL2IM_1D` /
-  `CONV_TRANSPOSE_1D` / `CUMSUM`. By contrast `COL2IM_1D` appears in **no** HIP, OpenCL,
-  WebGPU, Hexagon or CANN source — a **HIP** (ROCm) build would shard the ConvNeXt/DAC
-  transposed convs back to the CPU per op. On an AMD iGPU the portable path is RADV/Vulkan.
- `--device` also accepts a multi-device split (`-dev`-style naming is ggml's), and the
-  runtime's documented FP16 guard (`--clamp-fp16`) exists for sub-Ampere CUDA accumulation;
-  nothing in the tree is NVIDIA-specific.
- Unverified by me: any vendor statement pairing this fork with gfx1151. Supporting evidence
-  that the hardware/driver combination is viable: this very host already runs a Vulkan
-  endpoint on the gfx1151 iGPU (fleet ground truth, 2026-10-19), and Mesa's Vulkan
-  implementation is officially supported on Radeon Software for Linux
-  (AMD release notes RN-AMDGPU-UNIFIED-LINUX-25.20.3). A gfx1151 Vulkan build of this fork is
-  a build-and-measure spike, not an unsupported port.
- The real constraint is the one already in the fleet docs: the iGPU belongs to another
-  endpoint, and GPU+NPU concurrency has hung Strix Halo machines. An iGPU TTS build competes
-  with the text endpoints for the same silicon; the NPU route's only genuine advantage is
-  that it does not (the XDNA backend authors make the same argument: "Use NPU when the iGPU
-  is busy … no GPU contention").

-
-## 4. What any replacement must reproduce, and what the voices cost
-
-Endpoint contract in production today (from the live unit/env, not the doc):
-`tts-server --model qwen-talker-1.7b-base-Q4_K_M.gguf --codec qwen-tokenizer-12hz-Q8_0.gguf
--alias frank-tts-engine --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8880 --lang auto --max-batch 1`, no published
-port (the façade on :7772 dials the private bridge name), `GET /health`, `GET /v1/models`,
-`GET|POST /v1/audio/voices`, `DELETE /v1/audio/voices/{name}`, `POST /v1/audio/speech` with
-`response_format` wav|pcm (different audio at equal seed) and optional `seed`,
-`max_new_tokens`, `temperature`, `top_k`, `top_p`, `repetition_penalty`, `subtalker_*`.
-Voice registry is RAM-only, so boot warming is mandatory, and `--alias` keeps the quantization
-choice out of every consumer's config.
-
-Live voice census on Dankclaw (2026-10-19, `/home/dank/voices/`): three packs
-(`narrator1..3`), each carrying `reference.wav` (24 kHz mono crop), `reference16k.wav`,
-`manifest.json` (keys: name, kind, generated_utc, pipeline, source, forbidden_region_guard,
-silence_scan, crop, loudnorm, audio, acceptance, acceptance_passed) and ffmpeg analysis
-artifacts. **No `.spk` and no `.rvq` exist on the live host** — the repo's
-`build-voice-pack.sh` treats them as required-but-they-are-not-there, so today the engine
-re-extracts the x-vector (and the ICL codes when a transcript is supplied) from the WAV at
-registration time.
-
-That is the portable part, and it is the same shape AMD's NeuTTS flow wants
-(`encode_reference(reference.wav)` + a reference transcript): the fleet's voice identity is
-*the WAV plus its transcript*, processed at request/registration time by the model's own
-speaker encoder + codec — **never a trained per-voice artifact**. Qwen3-TTS cloning is
-inference-time conditioning (`generate_voice_clone(ref_audio=…, ref_text=…, x_vector_only_mode=…)`;
-`create_voice_clone_prompt` exists purely to avoid recomputing prompt features). So any
-replacement that consumes a WAV (+transcript) keeps all three narrators alive with no
-re-derivation, and if it wants precomputed latents instead, the LiteRT precedent shows what
-that looks like: a 4 KB x-vector `.npy` per voice, extracted offline
-(`extract_speaker_embedding.py`) — for the 1.7 B base checkpoint that vector is 2048-dim
-(`qwen3-tts.spk_enc.embedding_length = 2048` in the shipped GGUF; the LiteRT 0.6 B bundle
-ships a 1024-dim one).
-
-One trap for a mixed-runtime future: `.spk`/`.rvq` files, if they are ever written, are
-engine-specific encodings (ECAPA x-vector layout; 11-bit-packed RVQ stream) and are **not**
-interchangeable between runtimes. Keep `reference.wav` as the pack's source of truth and
-regenerate anything derived per engine — which is what the NeuTTS re-clone plan does anyway.

-# TTS on the Strix Halo NPU — spike verdict (2026-10-19)
-
-Question: **how can the fleet's TTS engine run on hardware rather than CPU?** Answer in
-one line: not on the NPU — the loader, not the silicon, refuses it; the door that exists is
-the gfx1151 iGPU behind a build flag we already own.
-
-Spike evidence lives in `report/npu-tts-runtime-landscape-2026-10-19.md` (which runtimes can
-reach XDNA2 at all) and `report/qwen3-tts-payload-portability-2026-10-19.md` (what the
-payload is and where it can be moved). This page owns only the **measured spike result** and
-the **model-side contract** neither slice has. Throwaway work ran in containers under
-`/home/dank/spikes/npu-tts` on Dankclaw; nothing in the fleet was changed — `frank-tts` and
-`frank-tts-engine` still serve `narrator1|2|3` on CPU.
-
-Legend: **[host]** live census 2026-10-19 · **[spike]** measured in the spike containers ·
-**[vendor]** primary vendor source, with the version it holds for.
-
-## 1. Verdict
-
-**NO-GO on the NPU, and the wall is a loader.** The XDNA2 device is healthy by AMD's own
-instruments; the runtime that owns this model family opens the device and then declines the
-graph, silently. One run loaded successfully; byte-identical runs never reproduced it, and a
-path that cannot be reproduced is not a foundation. **[spike]**
-
-**Go on the iGPU, and the lever is in this repo.**
-`dankclaw/voiceservice/Containerfile.engine` builds `qwentts.cpp` (commit `5916bf7`) with
-`-DGGML_VULKAN=OFF` written out deliberately beside CUDA/HIP/METAL/SYCL/RPC — the running
-container carries `libggml-base.so.0.27.0` + `libggml-cpu.so.0.27.0` + `tts-server` and
-nothing else. So: `-DGGML_VULKAN=ON` + `--device Vulkan0`, plus `/dev/dri` passthrough in
-the engine quadlet (the ComfyUI pattern: `AddDevice` + `GroupAdd=keep-groups` + a
-world-writable udev rule). The target shape is **co-tenancy** — the engine resident on the
-gfx1151 *beside* `frank-dragoon`, not a handover. §5 carries the census and both gates:
-the **heap gate is PASSED** — RADV's `DEVICE_LOCAL` heap is 77.33 GiB with 65.16 GiB of
-budget while dragoon is loaded, so memory is not the constraint — which leaves the
-contention gate (dragoon's TTFT with a synthesis in flight) and one unproven piece:
-whether qwentts.cpp's codec ops have Vulkan kernels for every op. **[host]** **[spike]**
-
-Why the iGPU is worth doing at all, given CPU already works: the deployed payload needs
-only **12.5 codes/s** (§2), so this is latency headroom and freed cores, not reviving a
-dead service. The independent Strix Halo measurement in the portability slice ("use Vulkan
-exclusively"; NPU decode under 1.5 t/s for an 8B) points the same way.
-
-## 2. The two arms do not share a real-time bar
-
-|Arm|Talker|Codec|Codes per second of audio|Bar|
-|---|---|---|---|---|
-|**Deployed** (`frank-tts-engine`)|`qwen-talker-1.7b-base-Q4_K_M.gguf`|`qwen-tokenizer-12hz-Q8_0.gguf`|**12.5**|~13 tok/s **[host]**|
-|**Spike** (`amd/neutts-air_rai_1.8.0_npu_4K`)|NuTTS-Air, 24-layer Qwen2|NeuCodec `24000 / hop 480`|**50.00**|~50 tok/s **[spike]**|
-
-Measured from the staged NPU artifact — the contract any future arm must satisfy:
-
-|Fact|Value|
-|---|---|
-Vocab|`genai_config.json` `vocab_size` **217,652**; base BPE 151,643; specials 151,644–151,670 **[spike]**|
-Speech tokens|**65,536** `<|speech_N|>` entries, ids **151,671–217,206** contiguous; the vendor template maps a codec index straight to its id, `"".join(f"<|speech_{i}|>")`. A 10,001-code assumption silently truncates the space — encoded references really do reach the 60k range. **[spike]**|
-Stop token|`<|SPEECH_GENERATION_END|>` = 151,670, but the export's `model.eos_token_id` is `[151645, 151643]` (the *chat turn* stop) and `search.eos_token_ids` is unset — pass 151,670 explicitly or speech ends after one token **[spike]**|
-Input ceiling|4096 tokens **total**, input + output **[vendor]**|
-Frame rate|50.00 codes/s confirmed across three references (49.96 / 49.99 / 50.00) **[spike]**|
-Reference encode|`librosa.load(sr=16000, mono=True)` → `[1,1,T]` float → `codec.encode_code(audio_or_path=…)` (vendor `NeuTTS.encode_reference`); CPU RTF 0.28–0.38 on 8 threads, so codes are a cacheable one-time cost, never a per-request charge. `neucodec` also needs `torchtune`; install both `--no-deps --target <dir>` so a second torch never shadows the venv's. **[spike]**|
-Pre-encoded voices|`/spike/logs/codes-narrator{1,2,3}.npy` — 994 / 1,249 / 1,250 codes for 19.90 / 24.98 / 25.00 s **[spike]**|
-
-**Gap that any arm inherits:** the voice packs carry no transcript. `manifest.json` holds
-provenance and crop geometry (`crop.source_speech_run` 98.739–118.636 s of a 22,569 s
-audiobook) and no text, and Dankclaw has no ASR at all — `whisper`, `whisper.cpp`,
-`faster-whisper` all absent. NuTTS conditioning needs `ref_text`; do not invent it. **[host]**
-
-## 3. Exoneration chain — why the blame is not the hardware
-
-Every row is an instrument, not an inference.
-
-|Probe|Result|
-|---|---|
-`xrt-smi examine`|`[0000:c6:00.1] RyzenAI-npu5 aie2p 6x8`, XRT 2.25.37 (vendor extract), NPU fw 1.1.2.65, `amdxdna 7.0.0-38-generic` **[spike]**|
-`xrt-smi validate`|**PASSED**, including `throughput` **[spike]**|
-`pyxrt.device(0)` in-container|constructs — XRT enumerates the device **[spike]**|
-`strace -f -e trace=openat` on the failing load|`genai_config.json` read → `model.onnx` opened → `libxrt_driver_xdna.so.2` loaded → `/dev/accel/accel0` opened `O_RDWR` → GEM ioctls succeed → **EP declines, before touching `dd_metastate_*` or `cache/txn_bins.zip`** **[spike]**|
-`dmesg`, `fuser /dev/accel/accel0`|silent since boot, no holder — the decline never reaches the kernel **[spike]**|
-Hardlinked mirror dirs of the model tree (`rundir*`)|retired, no change — the "metastate shadowing" theory is dead **[spike]**|
-Every logging lever in that build: `GENAI_ORT_VERBOSE_LOGGING`, `GENAI_LOG_ORT_LIB`, `set_log_options`, `set_log_callback(callable)`, `RYZENAI_EP_TRACING`, `RYZENAI_LLM_PROFILE_INIT`|**zero lines** — the decline path is silent **[spike]**|
-Vendor `quicktest`|`Session successfully initialized` — proves the XRT/driver/device path, **not** NPU residency: that build falls back to CPU silently. Prove residency with `/sys/class/accel/accel0/device/mem_usage` during generation. **[spike] [vendor]**|
-
-No NPU token rate was ever measured, so none is quoted here. The single successful load
-(13:17, `[load] 0.84s`, finite logits, XRT banner at *generate* time) has not been
-reproduced by the byte-identical command since, with the model files pristine by inode and
-mtime. **[spike]**
-
-## 4. Host gates the spike proved (so they are not re-litigated)
-
- **Rootless containers cannot read `/dev/accel/accel0`** (`root:render` 0660): the host
-  gid never enters the userns map. `--group-add keep-groups`, `--userns=keep-id`,
-  `--userns=keep-id:gid=990`, `--group-add render`, `--group-add gid:990` — all fail.
-  Doors: rootful podman (separate storage), or a world-writable udev rule, which the fleet
-  already does for `kfd`/`renderD*`. **[spike]**
- **Never `dpkg -i` the vendor XRT deb** — it installs a DKMS `amdxdna` over the distro
-  driver. `dpkg-deb -x` the debs and bind-mount the tree at `/opt/xilinx/xrt`; the plugin
-  deb is what carries `libxrt_driver_xdna.so`. **[spike]**
- In-tree `amdxdna 0.7.0-38` + `iommu=pt` is enough for context creation; a missing device
-  node is *not* the modern failure mode. **[host]**
- `xrt-smi` inside a container needs `libboost-filesystem1.83.0` +
-  `libboost-program-options1.83.0` (**hyphenated** Ubuntu names, after `apt update`);
-  boost is needed by `xrt-smi` only, never by the OGA/EP path. **[spike]**
- Headroom is tight and it is host RAM, not a separate pool — see §5 for tonight's census.
-  A multi-GB NPU partition plus an AIE compile workspace does not fit beside
-  `frank-dragoon`. Benign-looking `Failed to alloc dev bo memory, ret -28` is that
-  pressure. **[host]**
-
-## 5. Target shape: the TTS engine shares the gfx1151 with `frank-dragoon`
-
-The deployment Frank wants is **both resident at once**, not a handover. Measured 2026-10-19
-(read-only, nothing loaded or unloaded):
-
-|Measure|Value|Reading|
-|---|---|---|
-iGPU GTT in use|**18,523 MiB of 116,733 MiB**|≈96 GiB of aperture free; this is the real budget (fleet law) **[host]**|
-DRM "VRAM" carve-out|2,048 MiB total, 174 MiB used|what KFD/DRM calls dedicated — **not** the budget **[host]**|
-Host RAM|121 GiB total, 17 GiB available, 79 GiB buff/cache|**GTT pages are system pages**: an iGPU allocation is host RAM consumed, so the two tenants share one pool **[host]**|
-TTS engine today|3.84 GiB RSS, CPU|its device-resident replacement lands in that same pool **[host]**|
-
-**Two gates, in this order.**
-
-1. **Heap gate — PASSED.** RADV does **not** hand a container tenant the 2 GiB DRM
-   carve-out. `vulkaninfo` inside the engine's own base image (`ubuntu:24.04` plus
-   `mesa-vulkan-drivers vulkan-tools`, `--device /dev/dri`, rootless) sees
-   `Radeon 8060S Graphics (RADV GFX1151)`, driver `radv`, API 1.4.318, and reports:
-
-   |Heap|size|budget with dragoon loaded|flags|
-   |---|---|---|---|
-   |0|38.67 GiB|32.58 GiB|host-visible, not device-local|
-   |1|**77.33 GiB**|**65.16 GiB**|`DEVICE_LOCAL`|
-
-   The heaps sum to the ~116 GiB aperture in Mesa's ⅓/⅔ APU split — the same RAM twice:
-   a Vulkan allocation is a GTT mapping, so a budget is a ceiling on mappings, not a pile
-   of free silicon memory. ggml's Vulkan backend asks for `DEVICE_LOCAL`, which is heap 1,
-   and the TTS engine needs roughly 4 GiB of it. **Memory stops being the question.** **[spike]**
-   Probe traps: `vulkaninfo --batch` is not a flag in this `vulkan-tools` (it prints the
-   help page and exits 1 — use `vulkaninfo --text`), and the container has **no NVIDIA
-   ICD**, so Vulkan device 0 is the iGPU here. Do not trust that ordering — select by
-   device *name*, or an image that grows an `nvidia_icd.json` silently points TTS at the
-   3090 slot.
-2. **Contention gate — PASSED, measured 2026-10-19 after the cutover.** With a 16.9 s
-   synthesis occupying the device, `frank-dragoon` answered a streamed 124-token request at
-   **17 ms to first token and ~35 tok/s decode**, against 17 ms and ~33 tok/s for the same
-   request with the card idle. Compute-unit sharing showed up as nothing. One request per
-   arm, no ladder: these are the gate's evidence, not a throughput record, and the engine's
-   own shape lives in [[Frank TTS Engine]].
-
-**Change surface — as landed** (PR #34, `6248f02`; the CPU shape stays reachable as the
-rollback):
-
-1. `Containerfile.engine` build stage: add **`libvulkan-dev glslc spirv-headers`**. The
-   prediction above (`libvulkan-dev glslang-dev`) is wrong on two counts and the configure
-   says so: ggml looks for `glslc`, which Ubuntu's `glslang-tools` does **not** ship (it
-   ships `glslangValidator`), and `find_package(SPIRV-Headers CONFIG REQUIRED)` needs the
-   distro's `spirv-headers`, which does carry the CMake config. `glslc` is its own source
-   package on noble, at 2023.8 — old enough that only `GL_KHR_cooperative_matrix` compiles,
-   so the coopmat2 / integer-dot / bf16 / micro-float shader families are built out. Suspect
-   that compiler before the device if a Vulkan prefill ever reads as slow.
-2. `-DGGML_VULKAN=OFF` → `ON`: one word in the written-out flag list.
-3. Runtime stage: `mesa-vulkan-drivers` **and** `libvulkan1` — the ICD and its loader. An
-   image with a loader and no ICD enumerates zero devices.
-4. `frank-tts-engine.container`: `AddDevice=/dev/dri` + `GroupAdd=keep-groups` — the
-   DIRECTORY, never the node: on this hybrid box `renderD128` is the NVIDIA card and
-   `renderD129` the amdgpu iGPU (`readlink -f /sys/class/drm/renderD129/device/driver` →
-   `amdgpu`). On this host the udev rule already makes the nodes world-writable, so the
-   group is belt-and-braces, not the gate.
-5. Engine argv: `--device Vulkan0`, reached through `QWENTTS_DEVICE` in
-   `scripts/frank-tts-engine.env`. **An empty value passes no flag at all** — that is the
-   CPU rollback, and it is why the entrypoint's default is an `-v` test rather than `:=`,
-   which also fires on a set-but-empty value and would silently undo the rollback.
-
-Gate 1 recipe, already run and **PASSED**: `mesa-vulkan-drivers` + `vulkan-tools` in a
-throwaway container off the same base, `--device /dev/dri`, then `vulkaninfo --text` and read
-the `VkPhysicalDeviceMemoryProperties` heap sizes — no model, no load, no compute. The probe
-trap: `vulkaninfo --batch` is not a flag in Ubuntu 24.04's `vulkan-tools` — it prints the help
-page and exits 1, which reads like a driver failure. Every package involved has a candidate on
-the host's apt (`vulkan-tools` 1.4.341, `libvulkan-dev` 1.4.341, `glslang-dev`/`glslang-tools`
-16.2.0); the build stage runs on the digest-pinned Ubuntu 24.04 base, whose versions are older
-but present. Script: `/home/dank/spikes/npu-tts/vk_probe.sh` on Dankclaw.
-
-Constraints that do not relax for a co-tenant: `/dev/dri` passthrough needs the ComfyUI
-pattern (`AddDevice` + `GroupAdd=keep-groups` + the world-writable udev rule) because
-systemd user-unit spawns carry no supplementary groups; the 64 GiB swap at `/swap.img`
-exists to protect co-tenants, and paging a KV pool is worse than the OOM it prevents;
-`pp_dpm_fclk` reads `auto` (unheld), which only becomes a hazard if the NPU ever joins.
-
-## 6. Re-visit condition
-
-Retry the NPU when **a Linux loader claims the graph**: an `onnxruntime-genai-ryzenai`
-build whose RyzenAI adapter takes the NuTTS-Air Full-Fusion graph on `RyzenAI-npu5`, or that
-model appearing in a runtime's own supported catalog with a Linux runner. Then the
-prerequisites are already mapped and priced: the gated NeuCodec encoder for cloned voices,
-the `ref_text` transcripts, the 4096-token prompt budget, and 50 codes/s as the bar.

-# grafana.franksdank.cloud logs in through authentik as an OAuth2 relying party.
-# Two DB-side facts (the provider was created by hand via `ak shell`, never
-# repo-managed) silently broke that login, and BOTH had previously been
-# mis-recorded here as a single "the property-mapping evaluator is broken, so
-# userinfo returns only `sub`" myth. They are neither, and the evaluator is fine:
-#
-#   1. provider.authorization_flow was NULL. The authorize view builds a flow
-#      planner from it and crashes with
-#      `AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'slug'` — an HTTP 500
-#      "Server Error — Powered by authentik", before any claim is touched.
-#      Fix: point it at default-provider-authorization-implicit-consent, the
-#      flow every other provider in this instance already uses.
-#   2. The `grafana-email-scope` ScopeMapping's expression was the bare string
-#      `user.email`. authentik merges a scope mapping's result into the token as
-#      a MAPPING: a returned dict adds its keys as claims; a returned string is
-#      keyed under the mapping's NAME ("grafana-email-scope"), so no `email`
-#      claim is ever emitted. Grafana, finding no email, falls back to
-#      GET <api_url>/emails, authentik 404s that path, and the login dies with
-#      "Login failed: InternalError". Fix: return
-#      {"email": user.email, "email_verified": True} — the shape the stock
-#      OpenID 'email' mapping uses. The dict-valued `grafana-profile-scope`
-#      mapping has always worked, which is the proof the evaluator is fine.
