Frank 55f87fcdce llm: retire the trio service names — fleet services renamed to frank-archon/frank-dragoon/frank-zealot
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.
## Hardware Specifications
### CPU
| Property | Value |
|----------|-------|
| Model | AMD RYZEN AI MAX+ 395 w/ Radeon 8060S |
| Architecture | x86_64 |
| Cores | 16 (1 socket, 1 thread per core) |
| Max MHz | 5187.50 |
| Min MHz | 625.00 |
| NUMA Nodes | 1 (node 0, 31213 MB) |
### GPU (Integrated)
| Property | Value |
|----------|-------|
| Model | AMD Radeon 8060S (Strix Halo) |
| Device ID | 0x1586 |
| Architecture | gfx1151 (Strix Halo) |
| GPU-Visible Memory | ~114 GiB GTT aperture (the budget; `gtt_total`; rocm-smi's smaller SVM carve-out is not the budget) |
| Physical RAM | 64 GiB (61 GiB visible; upgraded from 32 GB, corrected 2026-08-17) |
### NPU
| Property | Value |
|----------|-------|
| Model | AMD XDNA2 (Ryzen AI) |
| Rating | 50 TOPS |
| Device | /dev/accel/accel0 |
| Driver | amdxdna 0.7 (in-tree, kernel 7.0.0-29-generic) |
| Firmware | 1.1.2.65 |
| Runtime | FastFlowLM 0.9.45 + XRT (installed 2026-08-16; **retired 2026-09-11** with the `amd_iommu=off` decision) |
| Status | Not in service. Research only. See [[FastFlowLM NPU Inference]] |
The NPU is retired (2026-09-11). The `frank-zealot` name now serves Gemma4-12B QAT on the RTX 3090 via llama.cpp (see [[frank-zealot-gemma4-12b]]).
### ROCm
| Property | Value |
|----------|-------|
| ROCk Module | Loaded |
| Runtime Version | 1.18 |
| ROCm Version | 7.2.4 system (/opt/rocm) + TheRock 7.15 SDK in the CIRU venv (used for the runtime) |
| Agent Name | AMD RYZEN AI MAX+ 395 w/ Radeon 8060S |
| GPU Arch | gfx1151 (Strix Halo) |
| GPU Global Memory | ~114 GiB GTT aperture (the budget) |
### Memory
| Property | Value |
|----------|-------|
| System RAM | 64 GiB (shared CPU + GPU; 61 GiB visible) |
| GPU-Visible (ROCm) | ~114 GiB GTT aperture (the budget) |
| Swap | 8.0 GiB |
| /dev/shm | ~15 GiB (half of RAM) |
### Storage
| Filesystem | Size | Used | Avail | Use% |
|------------|------|------|-------|------|
| / (nvme0n1p2) | 1.9T | 1.3T | 545G | 70% |
### Network
| Interface | Type | Speed | IP | Notes |
|-----------|------|-------|----|-------|
| eno1 | onboard | 2500 Mb/s (2.5 GbE) | 192.168.0.143 (DHCP) | Carries the RPC path to Dankserver since 2026-08-17. Default route via 192.168.0.1. |
| enx00e04cc2e1e5 | USB-C to Ethernet adapter | 1000 Mb/s | 192.168.0.116 | 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. |
| docker0 | bridge | - | 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.
### OS and Software
| Property | Value |
|----------|-------|
| OS | Ubuntu 26.04 LTS (Resolute Raccoon) |
| Kernel | 7.0.0-29-generic |
| Python | 3.14.4 (system), 3.12.13 (CIRU venv) |
| CIRU runtime | ciru-ai/ROCmFPX v2.3 (llama-server, ROCm 7.15 SDK) |
| uv | 0.12.2 |
## Runtime Relevance
- 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.
