Frank a6fb0209e8 fix(quant): a flat calibration round is not a failure — the tap's floor is pooled
RADIANCE_CALIB_TOKENS=12000000 is a pooled floor and calib-7168.jsonl carries 10.03M tokens, so
round 1 of a corpus push seals nothing by construction. The gate PR #84 added failed exactly
there, one round too early, while the drain was already running.

Now round_verdict() separates the cases: 'shrink' (the tap lost bytes) fails the run, 'flat' says
so and continues, 'grew' continues, 'done' stops. A run that never sees the engine's completion
line still exits non-zero on max rounds, and the rig marker remains the lock that stops a push
into anything that is not the rig.

Test: round_verdict's four verdicts, behaviorally.

"""calib-push.py — drive a calibration corpus through a radiance scratch
server's prefill so its tap writes layer Hessians (docs/MOE-W4.md).
Runs ON DANKSERVER next to the scratch server (the one autoresearch- /
serve-style scratch container booted with RADIANCE_CALIB_DIR set).
Reads the corpus JSONL produced by make-calib-corpus.py
({"prompt": "..."} a line), POSTs each prompt to /v1/completions with
max_tokens=1 (prefill-only cost, one token out), at N-way concurrency
matching the scratch server's --max-num-seqs budget.
Corpus rounds repeat until the engine prints the tap's completion line
("calibration wrote layer Hessians") in `podman logs <container>` — that
is the ground truth that RADIANCE_CALIB_TOKENS was reached. After that
line, further prompts are pure waste, so the driver exits.
Mechanics notes:
- requests carry no sampling params that matter (max_tokens=1, greedy).
- a per-request timeout of 30 min: at ~1k tok/s prefill a 12k-token
prompt is a few seconds; the timeout only catches a wedged engine.
- failures print and continue: the tap pools over tokens, a few lost
prompts do not bias the Hessians (the corpus is drawn round-robin over
source classes, so loss is class-neutral as long as failures are rare;
a systematic 4xx is loud in the log and must be fixed, not ignored).
- a round that seals no tap bytes is NORMAL and continues: RADIANCE_CALIB_TOKENS
is a pooled floor and this campaign's corpus is 10.03M tokens against a 12M
floor, so round 1 seals nothing by construction. A tap that LOSES bytes fails
the run, and a run that never sees the engine's completion line exits non-zero.
The first version failed on a flat round, which aborted exactly one round too
early (2026-10-29).
- before any prompt, the tap must carry the rig's own marker
(`--tap-marker`, written by run-qwen38-bf16.sh calib) naming THIS
container, and that container must be running. Measured 2026-10-29:
with neither check, four rounds of 10M tokens went into restored
production after the rig's boot had died, and recorded nothing.
