Frank d5934a6b47 fix(frank-archon): size the host pool so the KV cache clears 3 x 200,000
The 1.8.1 boot resolved the budget resolver to 4.20 GiB of cache a card —
556,348 tokens, 2.8 sessions at full height — so three concurrent
full-height requests are refused with a 400 at admission: the endpoint's
3-slot contract is broken by the cutover, silently, because /health and
every shorter conversation still answer.

The resolver gives the expert plane whatever the pinned host pool cannot
hold and the cache the rest, so the pool is the lever: +640 MiB a rank
moves that much expert demand into host RAM and the cache wins it back.
Tokens scale with the GiB won (8.11 KiB/token at fp8), so ~0.63 GiB buys
~44,000 tokens — 600,000 with margin — at ~2.5% off the expert slab.
TTM floor moves with the pool (2 x pool + 48,824 + prefix + MNBT =
150,200 MiB computed by the ledger test).

Verified by the boot ledger's `kv:` line and the probe's capacity leg,
not by this arithmetic.

Server App Configs

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.

The single repository for the two homelab servers: the Podman container stacks and the LLM inference fleet. One repo, one checkout per host, one deploy script.

2026-08-22: the former vllmScripts repository (LLM fleet) is merged into this repo with its full git history. See AGENTS.md for the merge note.

Structure

  • dankserver/ — compose.yaml + Caddyfile + .env.example for the Dankserver stack
  • dankclaw/ — compose.yaml + Caddyfile + .env.example for the Dankclaw stack
  • shared/ — homepage, prometheus config, deploy helpers
  • scripts/ — deploy.sh and deploy-remote.sh (service-scoped deployment), the planner, LLM serve scripts, systemd units, env tunables, and bench harnesses
  • old/ — retired PP/NPU-era LLM scripts (reference only)
  • serverAppConfigs-docs/ — project knowledge base (Obsidian vault, wikilinks). serverAppConfigs-docs/LLM/ is the LLM fleet
  • tests/ — bats test suite (see Testing Policy)

Deployment

See serverAppConfigs-docs/Architecture/Deployment Flow.md and serverAppConfigs-docs/LLM/deployment.md. Run ./scripts/deploy.sh <dankclaw|dankserver> after committing changes. It plans and deploys only the changed services. Use --service NAME for an explicit single-service retry; inference is restarted only when its own files (or the shared chat template) changed.

Knowledge Base

The serverAppConfigs-docs/ directory is an Obsidian vault. Start at serverAppConfigs-docs/index.md. The LLM fleet knowledge base lives at serverAppConfigs-docs/LLM/index.md.

Testing

Run ./tests/run.sh before every push. See serverAppConfigs-docs/Architecture/Testing Policy.md.
