Engine: digest-pinned docker.io/kyuz0/vllm-therock-gfx1151 (vLLM 0.30, TheRock ROCm 10, Triton GDN kernels); the serve script gates the image by REPO DIGEST, the payload (config + index + exact shard count), the spec draft (BOTH weight layouts: single model.safetensors for dflash, sharded index for the Qwen3.5-9B MTP head), and whole /dev/dri, sweeps the bench identity vllm-mimo, then exec podman wait so a container death trips Restart=always. Shape: 4 x 262144 at util 0.45 (KV grows only on the 8 full-attention layers), MTP 2 draft tokens. Measured 2026-10-01 window (frank-large stopped): base 13.1 t/s decode (~94% of the LPDDR5x BF16 roof), DFlash-8 17.4, MTP-2 19.8 with 71%/44% per-position acceptance - the cross-model head works because vLLM reads the draft from a separate path while MiMo ships zero mtp.* tensors. Spec arms do not preserve greedy bf16 text (batched-verify reduction order). The seam was rewritten around the new laws (18 tests): unit self-healing, digest gating, engine wiring, the measured spec table, the retired gufo gates, the deployer MainPID check. frank_small port test follows the PORT -> FRANK_LARGE_PUBLISH rename. Rollback: tag frank-large-gufo-q4kxl-20261001.
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.
