# Quadlet unit: frank-medium (rootless, boot-persistent).

# Install path on dankserver: ~/.config/containers/systemd/frank-medium.container
# Unit name: frank-medium.service (container name: frank-medium)
#
# The dankserver LLM endpoint (:7770, alias frank-medium) since 2026-09-20:
# the vllm-radiance MXFP4 stack (stilldeadcode/vllm-radiance:0.9.3 image +
# the ggz14/radiance-vllm-mxfp4 patches) serving
# just1moremodel/Qwen3.8-27B-Uncensored-MXFP4-awq on the 2x Radeon AI PRO
# R9700 (gfx1201) as ONE tensor-parallel process (TP=2, R4D one-shot
# all-reduce) with the DFlash2-FP8 block-diffusion drafter (SPEC=7).
# It replaced the mainline llama.cpp layer-split deployment, which served the
# same alias from the orcarouter Q8_0 GGUF across the same two cards.
#
# SHAPE. The launcher the upstream repo ships binds the server with
# --network=host (vLLM takes --host 0.0.0.0 --port 7770 directly), which is
# what this unit does too — no PublishPort. The fleet contract is unchanged:
# :7770, served model name frank-medium (SERVED_NAMES), OpenAI /v1.
#
# TP=2 IS INSTALLABLE HERE NOW, and it won on measurement. Until 2026-09-20
# this unit was archived un-installed because the second card sat behind B650
# chipset bridges advertising `AtomicOpsCap: Routing-`, which stopped RCCL
# kernel dispatch. The board swap (ProArt B850-Creator WiFi NEO) put both
# cards on CPU GPP root ports — Gen5 x8 each, every bridge Routing+, both
# endpoints ReqEn+ — and the collective-free R4D path runs at TP=2 without
# complaint. The conversation battery (scripts/bench-conversation.py, salted,
# same 10 prompts, 2026-09-20) measured this shape against the incumbent:
# decode geomean 95.8 t/s vs 45.7, mean TTFT 0.21 s vs 0.72 s, and 259 t/s
# aggregate against 4 concurrent streams vs 71.7. Evidence and the llama-side
# caveats: serverAppConfigs-docs/LLM/frank-medium-radiance-mxfp4.md and
# Dual-R9700-Cooperation.md.
#
# DEVICES. /dev/kfd + /dev/dri through the amdgpu/KFD stack; HIP/ROCR device
# indices 0,1 (the two R9700s). The 2 GiB Raphael iGPU enumerates as index 2
# and is excluded both by the index pin and by the upstream MIN_GPU_MIB=8192
# logic this unit replaces. --privileged --ipc=host --security-opt
# seccomp=unconfined --cap-add SYS_PTRACE is the upstream launcher's exact
# podman posture.
#
# MOUNTS. /models (rw checkpoints), the HF cache (tokenizer files),
# /cache (Triton/inductor/aiter/vLLM compile cache — first start compiles for
# several minutes, later starts reuse), /patches (the pinned radiance clone —
# its patches are applied at EVERY container start by the entrypoint), /r4d
# (the patched libr4d build; the image's shipped r4d.so NaNs the
# gated-delta-net and must never be used), and the entrypoint + healthcheck
# scripts from this checkout (mounted read-only straight out of
# /home/dank/serverAppConfigs — deploy.sh git-pulls the checkout before
# dispatching).
#
# IMAGE. The unit runs the localhost/-aliased tag: this host's podman quadlet
# path cannot resolve registry-prefixed refs from local storage at create
# time (same as frank-large on dankclaw). deploy-remote.sh pulls the
# docker.io ref and re-tags it before the restart. Pull=never keeps boots off
# the registry.
#
# KEEP IN SYNC: the radiance clone is pinned (97353293...); if it is updated,
# re-diff dankserver/frank-medium/radiance-entrypoint.sh against the new
# serve-mxfp4.sh container command and bump the pin deliberately.
#
# DO NOT name an environment variable TEMP, HOST or GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE: the
# HIP runtime reads bare TEMP for its JIT cache path (2026-08-13 incident).
