Auto cache-sizing is OFF on this box: the boot ledger refused it at 36.9 GB (2 x full-entry) floor vs 35.7 GB free, so every deep agent request re-prefills its whole 79-81k context (84.9-179.8 s measured on serve_api lines, 2026-10-06) for ~500-650 new tokens per turn. Pin HALOGEN_CACHE_MB=16384 (>= one full-slot entry at ~70 KB/token) — the documented override; the per-store reserve re-check keeps the host safe. Also: the serve script's 'podman run -d > LOG' captured only the container ID — the runbook's boot-ledger grep read a one-line hex file and the ledger existed nowhere on disk. Foreground 'podman run' makes the ledger land in the log file as documented; exit-code and ExecStop semantics are unchanged. Test seam updated for both.
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.
