Switch frank-default-small on Dankserver from upstream llama.cpp (b10121) to ikawrakow/ik_llama.cpp (b166e269, built with the staged pip cu13 toolkit). The model (Ornith-1.5-35B-A3B CRACK Q6_K) is unchanged and the old binary is kept for rollback. Runtime changes: - KV cache quantized to q8_KV with --k-cache-hadamard/--v-cache-hadamard - --split-mode graph (single-GPU no-op, retained per operator pref) - migrate ngram speculation to canonical --spec-type ngram-mod:n_min=48,n_max=64,ngram_size_n=24 (legacy --spec-ngram-mod-* are rejected in ik main) - N_GPU_LAYERS 999 (ik -ngl rejects the literal "all"); experts stay pinned to CPU via --override-tensor Build: GGML_CUDA_FA_ALL_QUANTS=ON + GGML_IQK_FA_ALL_QUANTS=ON mandatory for the quantized KV cache; recipe + reasoning baked into docs/LLM/ikllama-ornith.md. Tests and both indices updated.
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 docs/Architecture/Deployment Flow.md
and 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 docs/ directory is an Obsidian vault. Start at
docs/index.md. The LLM fleet knowledge base lives at
docs/LLM/index.md.
Testing
Run ./tests/run.sh before every push. See
docs/Architecture/Testing Policy.md.
