Checkpoint: just1moremodel/Qwen3.8-27B-Uncensored-MXFP4-awq -> orcarouter/Qwen3.8-27B-Uncensored-FP8 (FP8 E4M3 block-wise, 30.9 GB / 7 shards, its own single-layer MTP head). The quantization-aware entrypoint serves the plain FP8 path: --quantization fp8, ROCM_AITER_UNIFIED_ATTN, MTP self-speculation (SPEC_METHOD=mtp, SPEC=8). Measured: MTP mean accept 5.66/8 (66.2% draft acceptance), KV pool auto-sized to 461,540 tokens (1.76x), battery 85.9 t/s decode / 0.06 s TTFT / 179.7 burst-4 (vs MXFP4 92.4/0.22/ 248.9). MXFP4 checkpoint stays on disk as the rollback target. Streamlining: scripts/hf-manifest.py (generate a <filename> <size> <sha256> manifest from the live repo tree), scripts/hf-fetch.sh (resumable, byte + sha256 verified, idempotent fetch), scripts/swap-frank-medium.sh (generate manifest -> download -> detect quantization -> edit the quadlet -> deploy). Docs: new frank-medium-model-swap runbook; radiance runbook, both indexes, AGENTS.md, and log.md flipped to the FP8 shape.
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.
