+
+| Plane | Encoding (publisher recipe `qwen4exp-w4nl64-i8-hc8m`) |
+| --- | --- |
+| Routed experts | 4-bit codes into a 16-level **non-uniform** codebook after a 128-point Walsh–Hadamard rotation, one E4M3 scale per 64 weights; codes by GPTQ (10M-token calibration, per-expert down-proj Hessians) + 3 coordinate-descent sweeps |
+| Protected experts | **ten** per layer, whole-expert bf16 (down-projection energy) |
+| Trunk + lm_head | int8 W8A8, scale per 128 columns searched; HC mixtures E4M3 |
+| PLE n-gram | fp8 fixed-scale, in-container (served `--ngram-placement ram`, same 47.7 GiB pin law) |
+| Speculator | the model's own MTP head (card default depth 3; served at 2) |
+| Vision | bf16 vision tower, in-container |
+
+**Base model: the OFFICIAL (censored) Qwen3.8-Flash-Next** — the fleet's
+only frontier model at base alignment; the abliterated family lives on
+frank-dragoon. Card quality: full-vocab teacher-forced KL vs bf16 over
+~75K positions — mean 0.0789 all-tokens / 0.0239 assistant turns, top-1
+agreement 92.85 %.
+
+## Why this swap
+
+- **Publisher-graded precision**: the w4nl codebook + coordinate-descent
+  refinement is the engine author's own quality ceiling for this
+  checkpoint; the card's KL ladder (p99 1.65, p99.9 5.33) is published and
+  reproducible, where our w4dn8 gate measured against our own reference.
+- **Formal parity**: the served file is the one the engine author supports
+  — decode/prefill behavior on 1.0.13 is their tested path (the card's run
+  line speaks the 1.0.13-era flags; the `--vram-weights-mib`/`--vram-kv-mib`
+  pair we ship is accepted by pin 1.0.13 per the 2026-10-06 A/B, so the
+  shape needed no translation).
+- **Cost**: the Swift1.5 finetune's refusal-bending behavior leaves this
+  endpoint (it returns to the official base alignment); the 4-slot/200k
+  economics and all shape laws carry over unchanged.
+
+## Shape (unchanged from 2026-10-13)
+
+All of it, verbatim — the payload moved 116,416 → 116,322 MiB, inside the
+same budget:
+
+- `--tp 2 --tp-wire wht6`, `--max-num-seqs 3`, `--max-model-len 200000`
+  (capacity contract 3 × 200,000), `--kv-cache-dtype fp8`
+- `--placement expert_tiered --host-pool-mib 44928` + explicit
+  `--vram-weights-mib 25600 --vram-kv-mib 5120` (30,720 of the engine's
+  30,969 MiB ceiling; pool = contract + 1.3 %)
+- `--num-speculative-tokens 2`, `--max-num-batched-tokens 2048`
+  (MNBT 2048 law), prefix cache 8 GiB host + 64 GiB disk,
+  `--ngram-placement ram`, froggeric v22.5 `--override-chat-template`
+- TTM preflight floor 150,000 / target 204,800 MiB; pinned ledger
+  2 × 44 GiB pool + 47.7 GiB PLE + 8 GiB prefix ≈ 147 GiB (see
+  [[frank-archon-radiance-swift15-w4dn8]] for the ledger arithmetic and
+  the KV dtype law — both are engine properties, payload-independent)
+
+The publisher's card run line (`--host-pool-mib 12288`,
+`--expert-vs-cache-ratio 0.82`, seqs 8, spec 3, ~32 GB host RAM) is their
+shape on stock 32 GB cards; the fleet ships its own measured shape against
+the same file.
+
+## Cutover record — 2026-10-15
+
+1. `rm` (Frank's one-time authorization): the raw
+   `ukisai/Swift1.5-Qwen3.8-Flash-Next` BF16 checkpoint (336 GiB, spent
+   conversion source) and `qwen4exp-fp8-native.rad` (173 GiB, two eras
+   back) left `/home/dank/models` — 150 GB free → 658 GB free. The fp8-native
+   payload is **no longer on disk**: rebuild =
+   `scripts/download-frank-archon.sh` + `scripts/build-frank-archon-rad.sh`.
+2. Fetch: `scripts/download-frank-archon-iq4r.sh --fetch` as transient unit
+   `iq4r-fetch` (detached-job protocol; log
+   `/home/dank/logs/iq4r-fetch.log`, rc sentinel `…rc`).
+3. Deploy: `scripts/deploy.sh dankserver --service frank-archon` — launched
+   detached (the swap restarts the very endpoint the operator session runs
+   on; the harness timeout catches the session on return).
+4. **Boot ledger (2026-10-15, first boot, pin 1.0.13 — the w4nl codebook
+   loaded, no pin bump)**: `kv_attn` fp8 page **26.00 KiB** at **607,740
+   tokens** (151,935 blocks = 3.77 GiB) — byte-identical to the w4dn8 boot,
+   the sizing law carries; `kv_qsa_bkey` 3.25 KiB at the same token count;
+   `kv_gdn_state` 54 MiB × 6 slots, `kv_gdn_conv` 1.76 MiB × 3,
+   `kv_qsa_tail` 19.5 KiB × 6; pool **5.00 GiB**, prefix checkpoints 8 ×
+   56 MiB; the sizing line reads `kv cache 5.00 GiB … backs 3 sequences all
+   at 200000 tokens at once, which is the worst case`; samplers print **9
+   rows** per rank (3 × (1+2), inside the wht6 25-row bound);
+   `speculation: 'mtp' drafts 2 token(s) a step in 2 serial pass(es)` +
+   prompt-lookup fallback; slab **17,610 (rank0) / 17,658 (rank1) slots**
+   (64 shadow) — above the w4dn8 record of 17,548 (ten bf16-protected
+   experts per layer replace twenty-four, so more of the 4-bit table
+   resides), pinned pool 7,532/7,484 slots; KV lending **4.22 GiB**
+   (3,571/3,568 mover slots); arenas 896.02/988.17 MiB charged before the
+   pair split; prefix cache RECOVERED 900,176 blocks + 126 checkpoint slots
+   from the 64 GiB disk tier (same arch + tokenizer as w4dn8 — the tier
+   survived the payload swap); froggeric template 28,234 B; vision encoder
+   live (≤ 4,194,304 px, 16,384 patches/pass). Health gate passed in ~100 s
+   (radiance binds the port after the full load).
+5. **Vision probe (2026-10-15)**: 300 px solid-red PNG via `image_url` —
+   reasoning stream: "a solid fill of a deep, saturated red hue". Content
+   came back EMPTY at `max_tokens 64`: the thinking budget consumed all 64
+   (`reasoning_tokens: 64`, finish `length`) — fleet law, probe thinking
+   models with ≥ a few hundred tokens.
+6. **e2e gate**: deploy exited DEPLOY INCOMPLETE — 30/33 Playwright green,
+   3 red (`12-crawl`, `13-sso` search SSO, `16-marreta`) on DANKCLAW
+   surfaces (vhosts intermittently returned `ERR_CONNECTION_RESET` from the
+   workstation); frank-archon's own health gate passed. The swap touched no
+   dankclaw runtime file (only homepage services.json text). Census of the
+   Caddy/auth stack pending; see `log.md`.
+7. **Post-boot measurements (pending)**: decode ladder (99.0 t/s single
+   @ 43.5k, 93.3 @ 197k, 3-way 113.9/43.3/10.9 = 18.4 t/s aggregate —
+   these are the **w4dn8** numbers, the record to beat, not this file's),
+   slab-limited prefill (22208/3,397 → 25600/3,584 t/s A-cold 43.5k), draft
+   acceptance, and `scripts/probe-frank-archon-kv.py` leg D.

-## Baseline: what the fleet answers today
-
- All three endpoints are `auth: none`, plain HTTP, LAN-only
-  (`models.yml` providers; no vhost on 7770/7771).
- **(measured)** Live `/metrics` label census: `frank-archon` exports
-  `vllm:*`+`radiance:*` with labels only `{model_name, engine, le,
-  finished_reason, position, class}` — zero identity labels.
-  `frank-dragoon` exports `halogen:*`+`llamacpp:*`.
-  `frank-zealot` answers **501** — `serve-frank-zealot.sh` never passes
-  `--metrics`, so the Prometheus job is structurally never-green
-  (`LlmEndpointDown` fires). Fix: add `--metrics` to the ARGS array.
- **(measured)** frank-zealot verbosity-4 journal lines carry slot/task/timing
-  only — no client IP, no user. Alloy ships journal + podman ctr.log to Loki,
-  so what lands there has no identity either.
- Caddy has no `log` directive anywhere → no per-request access logs on the
-  OpenWebUI vhost.
- Net: fleet-level token telemetry exists per ENDPOINT; per-CONSUMER
-  identity exists nowhere.

-
-### C. Auth proxies / identity infrastructure (identity without token counts)
-
- **Ory Oathkeeper** (MIT, ~50–100 MiB): per-consumer api-key/JWT/
-  client-credentials → header mutation (`X-User: {{ .Subject }}`) +
-  decision logs.
- **oauth2-proxy** (Apache-2.0): OIDC (Authentik) incl. client_credentials,
-  `--pass-user-headers` → `X-Forwarded-User`; ~100 MiB.
- **Authentik itself**: proxy-provider custom headers (already injects
-  `X-Authentik-Username`/`-Groups`, spoof-stripped — the /whoami seam proves
-  the pattern on this host); event log + webhook forwarding.
- **Caddy `tls client_auth`** (mTLS per client cert) + access-log fields —
-  Caddy already fronts both hosts.
- **Smallstep step-ca**: short-lived per-device certs, ACME-style.
- **SPIFFE/SPIRE**: per-workload SVIDs (k8s-flavored; heavy for quadlets).
- **Tailscale / NetBird**: per-node identity, ACL + network-flow logs,
-  headscale for self-hosted control. Best for off-LAN laptops.
- **ApiAuth** (nginx auth_request): the minimal per-consumer apikey sidecar.
-
-### D. LLM observability / tracing (prompt-level per-user audit)
-
-| Platform | Identity | Content | Self-host | Shape |
-|---|---|---|---|---|
-| **Langfuse** | `user_id`,`session_id`, tags | full input/output, masking hook | ✅ ClickHouse, Apache-2.0 | fed via LiteLLM callback / OTLP / SDK |
-| **Helicone** | api-key→user, `Helicone-User-Id` | full, tiered redaction | ✅ compose (ClickHouse+PG+Redis+Jawn), Apache-2.0 | PROXY — can be the front door itself |
-| Arize Phoenix | `user.id`,`session.id` | opt-in `gen_ai.*` | ✅, Apache-2.0 | OTLP collector |
-| OpenLIT | `user.id`,`session.id` | 3-tier capture | ✅, Apache-2.0 | OTLP+ClickHouse |
-| SigNoz LLM | OTel attrs | opt-in | ✅, Apache-2.0 | OTLP |
-| OpenLLMetry/Traceloop | assoc props | opt-in | ✅ Helm | OTel |
-| Lunary / W&B Weave / LangSmith | user/session | full | enterprise-gated | — |
-
-OTel GenAI semconv (Development-stability): `gen_ai.operation.name`,
-`gen_ai.provider.name`, `gen_ai.request.model`, `gen_ai.usage.input_tokens`/
-`output_tokens`, `gen_ai.conversation.id`, content attrs opt-in; `user.id`
-from the registry. vLLM and SGLang emit OTLP natively; llama.cpp only via
-external SDK — **the fleet's engines are OTel-silent at request level**,
-which is why the gateway callback (LiteLLM→Langfuse) is the practical feed.
-
-### E. Network/host passive attribution (no client cooperation)
-
- **Pi-hole v6** (already on Dankclaw): query log API per device,
-  `pihole6_exporter` + query-logger→Loki (GPLv3 exporter).
- **Caddy access logs**: add a `log` directive (JSON) → Alloy→Loki; with the
-  auth chain it carries `X-Authentik-Username` for browser users.
- **OpenWebUI admin**: per-user daily token stats, events/logs, analytics API
-  (`/api/v1/analytics/*`) — per-USER identity exists here already (MIT).
- **auditd** connect-syscall rules (uid/pid/comm per connect to 7770/7771),
-  ship via audisp→Loki.
- **eBPF**: Tetragon (process+socket events, policies), Coroot, DeepFlow,
-  bpftrace `tracepoint:syscalls:sys_enter_connect` one-liners. K8s-shaped
-  for single hosts, but agents.plugin-style tools work.
- **nftables named counters** per consumer IP (bytes; reload resets).
- **netdata apps.plugin**: per-process network bytes, auto-discovered.
- **JA3/JA4 TLS fingerprinting**: client library only, TLS-only; the LAN is
-  plaintext HTTP today → use the HTTP **User-Agent census** instead (free
-  from any access log).
- **DHCP/ARP census** (leases + `ip neigh`): device roster.
-
-## Phased plan for this fleet
-
-**Phase 0 — repo-only, no new services**
-1. frank-zealot: add `--metrics` (fixes the measured 501 + the
-   structurally-red Prometheus job + the firing `LlmEndpointDown`).
-2. frank-dragoon: set `HALOGEN_API_KEY_FILE` (multi-key per consumer) +
-   mount `HALOGEN_RECORD_DIR` (start `HALOGEN_RECORD_TEXT=none`; flip to
-   `all` if prompt audit is wanted) + Alloy ship of `turns/`.
-3. frank-zealot: `--api-key-file` (multi-key, verified in the deployed
-   build); radiance: probe for `--api-key` support (contract facts are
-   silent — add to `fleet-probes`).
-4. models.yml: per-consumer bearer keys (`auth: none` → key) — the provider
-   schema supports apiKey (pi-era conversion note).
-5. Caddy: `log` on `ai.franksdank.cloud` (OpenWebUI browser census, JSON →
-   Loki).
-   Limits: keys gate access, and only the engines' request records (halogen)
-   see them per-request; llama.cpp/radiance/vLLM metrics stay identity-blind.
-
-**Phase 1 — LiteLLM Proxy quadlet on Dankclaw = the front door.**
-One virtual key per consumer (omp-<workstation> ×N, openwebui, hermes,
-agents, bench). Per-key/user/team Prometheus labels into the existing
-Grafana+Alertmanager; Postgres spend ledger; budgets + rate limits per
-key. This is the ONLY layer that yields tokens-per-who without engine
-cooperation. (Bifrost is the lighter Apache-2.0 Go alternative; Helicone
-the proxy-native-observability alternative.)
-
-**Phase 2 — prompt-level audit.** Langfuse self-hosted fed by the LiteLLM
-callback: per-user traces, sessions, cost; masking + retention knobs.
-
-**Phase 3 — ambitious identity infra.** step-ca + Caddy mTLS per device;
-Tailscale (+flow logs) for off-LAN; auditd/eBPF process attribution on the
-agent hosts; Pi-hole query logger; nft counters per consumer IP. Browser
-users stay owned by OpenWebUI analytics + its per-user API keys; a pipeline
-can forward `X-Forwarded-User` so the gateway sees them too.
-
-## Cautions
-
- Client-declared identity (keys, `user`, headers) groups traffic; it does
-  not authenticate humans. Authenticated identity = Authentik (browser) /
-  mTLS (device) / Tailscale (node).
- Plain-HTTP LAN = bearer keys sniffable by any tenant; treat keys as
-  identity labels on the LAN, not secrets, until TLS/mTLS at the door.
- Prompt-content logging stores a plaintext copy of everything — set
-  retention caps (halogen GIB/days; Langfuse masking; Loki retention) and
-  gitignore the record dirs.
- Household-scale cardinality is safe for per-key Prometheus labels;
-  the engines' refusal of key labels is a multi-tenant concern, not ours.

+  (fetch + build scripts); rollback for THIS swap is the w4dn8 `.rad`
+  (on disk) by reverting the commit.
+- Fetch: new `scripts/download-frank-archon-iq4r.sh` (hfget, exact bytes
+  121,969,901,568 + Hub LFS sha256, `--verify-only` default) as transient

Vision probe green (reasoning read the solid-red PNG; empty content at 64 tokens = the thinking-budget law). e2e gate RED on three dankclaw specs: Marreta was down since the 01:41 dankclaw reboot (marreta-browser dependency-failed at boot beside gluetun, not re-armed); pair restarted manually, redeploy rerunning the gate.	2026-10-15 05:44:09 -07:00

LLM index, root vault index, and AGENTS.md (fleet table row, section, runbook index: iq4r ACTIVE, w4dn8 RETIRED/on-disk, fp8-native deleted). Full suite green.	2026-10-15 04:16:28 -07:00
Frank	6dcf4a5913	llm(frank-archon): swap payload to the publisher's iq4r .rad, shape verbatim Model swap on the radiance endpoint: MODEL_FILE moves from the in-house qwen4exp-swift15-w4dn8-i8-hc8m.rad (116,416 MiB) to the engine author's published qwen3.8-next-flash-fp8-iq4r-moe.rad (116,322 MiB, official Qwen3.8-Flash-Next bf16 -> 4-bit non-uniform codebook experts + int8 trunk, card KL 0.0789 / top-1 92.85 % vs bf16). NO argument changed: 25600/5120 vram pair, 44928 host pool, fp8 KV, 3 x 200000, MTP depth 2, wht6, MNBT 2048, froggeric v22.5 — the 2026-10-13 shape carries verbatim. New fetch script scripts/download-frank-archon-iq4r.sh (hfget + exact byte count 121,969,901,568 + LFS sha256, --verify-only default, ungated, no token on the command line). Unit/serve/deployer lore re-keyed; the seam pins the new payload id + sha256 and keeps the w4dn8 rollback provenance. Homepage card points at the publisher repo. Rollback: revert this commit (w4dn8 .rad stays on disk). The fp8-native rad was deleted from dankserver 2026-10-15 (Frank's one-time rm, volume for this payload); rebuild path documented.	2026-10-15 04:10:50 -07:00
