Reanalysis after the 2026-09-20 swap to an ASUS ProArt B850-Creator WiFi NEO: both R9700s now sit on CPU GPP root ports (x8/x8 Gen5 bifurcation), every bridge reads AtomicOpsCap Routing+, and both endpoints read AtomicOpsCtl ReqEn+ (CAP_EXP+28.w = 0x1440) — the exact precondition Dual-R9700-Cooperation's test plan named. TP=2 is therefore unblocked, not proven: no collective has been dispatched since the swap, GGML_HIP_RCCL is still OFF, and the 272 t/s "tensor" number on record measured a butterfly fallback. - Dual-R9700-Cooperation: short answer rewritten, re-measured 2026-09-20 topology table, rebuild-hypothesis door marked moot, probe plan is now standing work. - Dankserver System Specs: Motherboard section; GPU BDFs 0b:00.0 -> 07:00.0, iGPU 10:00.0 -> 11:00.0, kernel 7.0.0-31, SMT on, and the new eno2 (192.168.0.247) second 5GbE port holding the low-metric default route while eno1 keeps the fleet's static .235. - frank-medium-llamacpp-dflash2: rationale and hardware row split past from present; dated work-log sections stay as history. - AGENTS.md + both indexes: no longer assert a wall that no longer exists. Docs only; frank-medium stayed active and healthy throughout (verified /health). ./tests/run.sh 331/331.
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.
