LLM Fleet — Knowledge Base

Documentation for the LLM inference fleet on two local machines (2026-08-29): FreeToken v0.1.2 on Dankserver (frank-default-small, Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-FP8) and ROCmFPX llama.cpp on Dankclaw (frank-default-large, agentionai Qwen3.8-Flash-Next ROCmFP4-FAST imatrix + MTP draft). Both services run the Qwen-Sharp chat template.

2026-08-22: the former vllmScripts repository is merged into the serverAppConfigs repository. This knowledge base moved from the old repo's serverAppConfigs-docs/ root to serverAppConfigs-docs/LLM/. The fleet scripts and units now live in the repo's scripts/ directory.
