run-qwen38-bf16.sh carried its own --host-pool-mib 12288 / --gpu-headroom-mib 768,
copied from the w4-era swift15 rig. The engine derives the whole per-card split from
those two numbers, and the KV cache's funding is `elastic - expert_floor` where the
expert floor is a function of the pinned host pool — so the pool buys cache as well
as residency. The first kldref boot got a 270 MiB / 7,436-position pool and the
recorder refused all 197 corpus documents ("document 0 is 10554 tokens and the KV
pool holds 7436"), exiting 1.
The rig now sources FRANK_ARCHON_HOST_POOL_MIB / FRANK_ARCHON_GPU_HEADROOM_MIB from
scripts/frank-archon.env, the file that owns them (49152 / 96), with `:?` guards, and
the header records the law instead of the claim that the pool never touches logits.
tests/qwen38_reference.bats pins the shape verbatim, so its SHAPE contract moves with
it; the suite is green (558 tests).

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
vllmScriptsrepository (LLM fleet) is merged into this repo with its full git history. See AGENTS.md for the merge note.

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.
