Replace the CIRU v4.4.1 Orca runtime with the unsloth llama.cpp prebuilt (b11030-mix-5ff778e, ROCm gfx1151, bundles its own ROCm) serving unsloth/Qwen3.8-Flash-Next-GGUF:UD-IQ4_XS (87.3 GiB, three HF split parts concatenated) on the Strix Halo iGPU. One conversation, 200,000 ctx, PARALLEL_SLOTS=1, MTP depth 2 via the explicit -md shared-Q8_0 head (sidecar auto-discovery does not search the mtp/ subfolder), text-only. Fleet contract unchanged: port 7770, alias frank-large. - serve-frank-large.sh: unsloth binary, -m/-md, --spec-type draft-mtp --spec-draft-n-max 2, --jinja, preserve_thinking; gates on binary, GGUF, MTP head; conditional --mmproj on ENABLE_VISION=1 - download-frank-large-unsloth.sh: resumable fetch of 3 parts + MTP head + mmproj, each verified against its LFS sha256 fetched live from the Hub tree API; concatenates parts, records/verifies SHA256SUMS - deploy-remote.sh: LLM_LARGE_MODEL/LLM_LARGE_DRAFT paths, pkill pattern on the model path (not the binary name), wait_port_free gate - tests: seams for 200k/1-slot, explicit -md, text-only, handler gates, sweep safety
Server App Configs
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.
