The 2026-10-09 wire aliases become the service names everywhere:
systemd units, serve scripts, env files and FRANK_* variables,
deploy-plan/deploy-remote service keys, container names, Prometheus
job names + alert rules, Grafana dashboard queries, bats seams,
runbook filenames, homepage/AGENTS lore, and historical prose.
Rollback tags renamed in lockstep. Residue in the tree: zero.
Retired frank-medium/small/npu names are history and stay.
Known casualty: scripts/patches/*.patch context lines were rewritten;
those retired-era vLLM-fork patches no longer apply byte-exact.

Dankclaw System Specs
Server Overview
Dankclaw is an AMD APU server for CIRU ROCmFPX llama.cpp inference. The host runs Ubuntu 26.04 with an AMD Ryzen AI MAX+ 395 Strix Halo APU. The APU uses unified memory — CPU and GPU share the same physical RAM pool.

UNPLUGGED 2026-08-17. While present, the route to 192.168.0.235 went through this adapter (lower route metric), so all RPC traffic was capped at 1 GbE. See Pipeline Parallelism/Ethernet Bandwidth Math section 0.

172.17.0.1
Usually down.
The L2 gateway/switch at 192.168.0.1 (MAC f0:4b:8a:65:c5:40) is at
least 2.5 GbE-capable. Whether it is 10G-capable is unverified — check
the device itself before buying 10G USB-C adapters; otherwise a direct
cable between claw and server is required for 10G.
Unified memory eliminates separate VRAM limits. The GPU uses system RAM.
The GPU budget is the GTT aperture: ~114 GiB (gtt_total in /sys/class/drm/card1/device/; llama-server --list-devices reports 116,732 MiB). rocm-smi's smaller SVM/dedicated carve-out is not the budget — the 2026-08 "64 GiB rocm-smi" lesson is stale. Do not use free or dmidecode for the GPU budget.
The active service is frank-dragoon on port 7770: gufo (gufo-org/gufo) v0.1.1, the Strix Halo inference engine, built from source at /home/dank/GitPackages/gufo-v0.1.1/, serving unsloth/Qwen3.8-27B-GGUF:UD-Q8_K_XL (27B dense, DFlash2 drafter). See frank-dragoon-gufo-qwen38-27b.
The active runtime links against the host ROCm (/opt/rocm → /etc/alternatives/rocm → 7.2.4) through its RPATH, so it needs the host HIP stack rather than a bundled one — the opposite of the retired llama.cpp prebuilt, which carried its own. Building it needs the ROCm dev packages that are installed, and two workarounds recorded in the runbook (drop librocwmma-dev; pin --gcc-install-dir to GCC 15). The retired CIRU venv's TheRock 7.15 SDK (LD_LIBRARY_PATH) is not in the serving path.
The retired vLLM venvs (/home/dank/vllm-venv, /home/dank/vllm-vk-venv) were moved to /home/dank/.AGENTTRASH/ on 2026-08-18.
1.1 TB free disk space is ample for model storage.
