Found trying auth.ldap against a Samba DC on the PoC. A CA file a
control plane could not use made every control plane exit, and no
ctl config could then put the setting right: directory sign-in is now
turned off there, and said. `llmgw server check` ran a whole server
that, its ports taken, held the leader's lease for three hours: server
refuses words it does not know and takes its ports before anything else.
The guides now say auth is set with ctl config, not server.yaml.

An engine that answers at once and the gateway in front of it, in one
process on loopback, given the same load straight and through the gateway:
bare, with authentication and accounting, and with the guardrails' pattern
checks. It reports p50 and p99, what the gateway added, and a rough CPU
per thousand requests.
On an Apple M5 at 100 to 2,000 requests a second (10 s a step, 72,000
requests, none failed), the gateway added 0.05–0.42 ms at p50 and at most
0.49 ms at p99. That is now in the README, with how it was measured and
why the CPU figure is rough. CI runs a one-second version.

A v0.14.6 install on fewer than eight cores refused every request until
its judge was given cores by hand, and upgrading did not change that. The
judge keeper, on the leader, now finds a judge whose entry is exactly what
init before v0.14.7 wrote: one llama.cpp CPU profile, an 8192 context and
nothing else, 2 or 4 GB, none to two cores. It gives the judge 2 GB,
--cache-ram 0 and cores by init's rule through modelsvc.SetProfiles, then
restarts its ready replicas. The replica count is left as it is. A judge
whose entry differs is left alone, and the log says so once.

A second judge replica on the same machine shares its cores and is lost
with it, so it bought nothing but half the speed of each. On a 4-core,
8 GB single-machine install, one judge on four cores passed 20 of 20
requests at about 3.5 s each, judged in and out. Two judges on two cores
each had passed 19 of 20.
server init now serves one judge when this machine is the only node, and
two, on two cores each and spread over the nodes, where there will be
others (HA setups, or a control plane that is not a node).
--judge-replicas and the setup's Copies still choose. install.md gives
the measured times in place of "half a second".

Checked by a single-machine install of v0.14.6 on a 4-core, 8 GB VM. The
second judge fitted nowhere: v0.14.6 reserved 4 GB a judge, a figure from
one replica that grew to 3.2 GB through llama.cpp's prompt cache (up to
8 GB by default), which a judge never reuses. Once it fitted, every
judgment timed out. v0.14.6 gave a judge one core below 8 CPUs, and a
judgment of about 280 tokens takes 8.0 s on one core, 4.2 s on two and
2.3 s on four, against a 5 s budget: 0 of 20 requests went through.
A judge now runs with --cache-ram 0, uses about 1.6 GB and reserves 2,
and reserves two cores (one only below four CPUs). On the same VM, 19 of
20 went through.

Measured on the three-VM cluster with ha1's CPUs loaded: 38 of 60 requests
refused with both judges and the starter on ha1, each engine on all four
cores. With the judges moved to a 4-core, 32 GB node at 2 cores each, 2 of
60 were refused, both the first after the judges started.
init now reserves cores by this machine's count: one per judge replica
under 8 CPUs and two from 8, and the rest, up to 8, for the starter on CPU.
The starter reserves nothing when nothing is left, so it still fits. Judges
bound for nodes not yet known get two each. A judge reserves 4 GB; it uses
about 3.2.

Found by a three-machine install on fresh VMs. The second standby's run
asked for the floating address's interface with `ip route get <vip>`.
The machine already held the address, so that answered lo, and keepalived
would not start. The interface now comes from the route to the address's
network. Every cluster's VRRP router id was 51, so the PoC's two control
planes and the new three on one LAN each logged the other's adverts as an
invalid password; the id now comes from the address.
The Caddyfile, deploy/ha and install.md send clients to the control plane
whose /leader is 200, not /ready: /ready is 503 on a leader with no model
yet and would take the portal away with it. Setup no longer hides a key
file's path as if it were a password, and the starter's text no longer
says it runs elsewhere when this machine is a node.

The setup screens list the parts of an install: control plane, store, model
mirror, this machine as a node, starter model, pictures and 3D, the judge,
firewall, notifications, limits, on-demand turns and an offline bundle. Each
says what it is or what is missing without it. Space turns a part on or off;
Enter opens its settings in a dialog that explains it. A plan page lists what
is installed and what is left out, and the same install as a command. Every
setting is a server init flag too, written into server.yaml when init writes
it.
With three machines, the two database machines become control planes too,
standing by (server add's steps), with an optional floating address. The
mirror's management API answers all three control planes, so a standby that
comes to lead can still fetch models.

notify.webhooks existed and setup never asked for one, so a new site
learnt of a parked model or a lost node from its users. `llmgw server
init --webhook URL` (repeatable) and a Notification webhooks field on
both setup screens take them now. Slack's address, Mattermost's and
Rocket.Chat's /hooks/ and Discord's …/slack are sent Slack's text, any
other the event as JSON; slack: or json: in front says which.
Once the control plane runs, they are added to the cluster's settings
beside the webhooks already there, none twice, and setup waits for the
control planes to start again on the change before sending each a test,
saying which answered. A webhook's path is its secret, so it is shown by
host only. A failure is said, not fatal: the cluster serves without its
alerts, and ctl notify test tries again.

ctl model serve served one as a chat model: no --embedding, four slots, a
512-token batch, embeddings unset, and a chat smoke test it could not
pass. A GGUF that pools (<arch>.pooling_type), or --embeddings, gets
--embedding, 32 slots of 1024 tokens unless sized otherwise, a batch that
holds a whole passage, the embeddings capability, and one vector asked for
as its smoke test (canaries and updates too). An import of a hundred
thousand chunks had gone at the pace of four slots with the card a third
busy.

A site's nodes stayed a release behind after its control plane was
upgraded, with nothing printed to say so. ctl upgrade checks every node's
version once the waves are done, fails naming any not on the release, and
says when the control plane has no nodes registered. llmgw upgrade on a
control plane, which looks like the cluster's upgrade and is not, says how
many nodes it left behind and the command that upgrades them.

On one card shared by flux and sf3d, a mesh asked for after a picture

A site whose catalog had no flux-schnell or triposr showed no Images or 3D
page, and nothing said they were one click away. The cluster page now has
a Pictures and 3D models card under the models: each preset, what it
makes, the classes of card here it fits, whether and by whom it was
added, and why the leader has not added it by itself; an Add button, which
says first when it would install ComfyUI on the GPU nodes and restart the
control planes; and the switch for presets.auto. The console's models
screen shows the same under its table: A adds one, asking first in the
same case, and P turns automatic adding on or off.
`ctl model add PRESET` and `ctl model presets` go through the presets API,
so the control plane keeps who added one, and `ctl model presets auto
on|off` flips the setting; against a control plane from before, add sends
the entry as v0.14.4 did.

A customer's portal had no Images or 3D pages: nobody had written a
definition for either, on a cluster whose V100 runs both. The leading
control plane now adds flux-schnell and triposr, on demand, once a node
has a card that fits one, the cluster installs ComfyUI, and the catalog
makes nothing of that kind. presets.auto (a live setting, on by default)
turns it off; a preset somebody removes is recorded as declined and not
added back until added again by hand. Each addition is in the audit log.
GET /api/v1/presets says how each preset stands, the ComfyUI the cluster
installs, and why one is not added; POST /api/v1/presets/{name} adds one
(setting engines.comfyui where there is none); PUT /api/v1/presets/auto
switches it.

flux-schnell and triposr come with llmgw as presets: their workflow,
custom nodes, packages and licence as they were found and tried on the
PoC, and a profile that says the card it needs rather than a class, so the
entry places on any site's cards. TripoSR's workflow is built in, with the
LLMGWPrepareForMesh node that keeps a picture's background out of the
mesh, which the copy in the document had left out.
`ctl model add PRESET` adds one, and has the nodes install ComfyUI when
the cluster's settings name none; `ctl model presets` lists them; the
console's add-model dialog offers them beside a definition file. A
ComfyUI build is now also checked to keep its order on a Turing card, so
a node's installed cu13 is not replaced by the cu126 build.

/3d beside /images, while some model makes meshes: a picture chosen, the
job asked for through the same path an API client's takes, its progress
shown (waiting for the card, n ahead; making it, the node and percent),
and the mesh in a viewer — model-viewer 4.4.0 (Apache 2.0, with three.js
and lit), served from the gateway since the page's policy loads scripts
from nowhere else — with a download and the model's licence. The mesh is
served to its owner from /3d/jobs/{id}/file; another project's person is
told there is no such job.
A job made from the portal acted for a key that does not exist: the
worker now rebuilds a session's principal from the account that made it,
while it is active and still in the project the job is charged to.

G3, the part that needs no model: a ComfyUI model's comfyui.output (or
external.output) says pictures or meshes. A request for a 3D model — a
job at /v1/3d/generations — carries the picture as base64; at the replica
it is uploaded to ComfyUI's input directory (the gate lets /upload/image
through), the workflow is filled in with its name, the seed and the
resolution, and the mesh the workflow saves comes back with its type,
which is the file the job keeps. comfy.Client reads every list of files an
output names, not "images" only, and types a file by its extension where
ComfyUI sends octet-stream.
A model's license (name, url, notice) is said in /v1/models and in the
job, and written into a GLB's asset.extras, since the file travels without
the API; a mesh it cannot be written into is refused. per_mesh in
auth.pricing, usage.meshes in the rows, the sums and the export
(migration 0045). A picture asked of a mesh model, or a mesh of a picture
model, is refused saying which it makes.

The catalog had one source a model, so an embedding model served by vLLM
from its repository on a card and by llama.cpp from a GGUF on CPUs had its
entry swapped by hand halfway through the metallurgy import. A profile's
source is what its engine loads and placement looks for; the model's is
the default, and what updates and canaries move. ctl model add checks
every source, the GGUF check reads each llama.cpp profile's, and ctl
weights collects none a profile loads. An empty source leaves a profile's
fingerprint as it was, so running replicas do not read as stale.

Each kept its own hour of quiet per event, so a budget spent on a team
both control planes served was announced by each. An event is now claimed
in the store before it is sent (notify_sent, migration 0043; one statement,
so two asking at once cannot both win), and only the claimer sends it. A
store that cannot be asked sends it anyway.

ctl models said "not placed" for a model with min 0 woken by a request and

cluster's own cards, with engine comfyui behind its gate.

A model whose profiles run engine comfyui is placed on a node's card like
any other, and makes pictures there. ComfyUI asks for no key, so the agent
starts it behind llmgw comfyui-gate: ComfyUI on the loopback, the gate on
the replica's port demanding the replica's key and letting through only
what the router asks — queueing, waiting, fetching, cancelling. The gate
answers the agent's /health and /v1/models, shows ComfyUI the fetched
weights by their own names, and gives each replica its own base directory.
ComfyUI runs as the gate's child, so its card memory is the replica's.
A node offers the engine when agent.yaml names its ComfyUI
(engines.comfyui.dir). The model's comfyui: block names the workflow and,
for a source that is a set of files, the checkpoint.

auth.pricing takes per_image, charged on top of a prompt's tokens; a model
priced only per picture is not free, so a spent budget still stops it.
Each usage row keeps how many pictures were made (migration 0041), and

The leading control plane tells the mirror over its API (PUT /v1/firewall,
kept as .firewall.json beside the models and applied by the same path unit
control planes use), and keeps the state in the store's cluster_state for
members that run no llmgw, which a root timer reads from the member's own
copy. The mirror also lets in the network of every node and control plane
the leader knows. Tried on the PoC: off, on and a network added, on every
kind of machine.

What llmgw org, keys and users did against the store on a control plane
can now be done remotely and by automation: the tree read, added to,
renamed, moved and emptied; keys issued (the key in the answer, once),
listed and revoked, with the scopes' lifetime limits; people put in and
taken out of the tree, their keys in projects they no longer reach
revoked with it.

Each Patroni member gets a share of its own RAM in its own config.yml:
shared_buffers a quarter (15% beside a control plane or agent),
effective_cache_size, maintenance_work_mem and work_mem scaled to it, all
clamped. It is read again on every server init --patroni, so a machine
given more memory gets the use of it. A single-machine PostgreSQL init
installs is sized the same way, as a shared machine, instead of a fixed
96MB.
The step itself went in with 85025df by accident, in an early form that
restarted PostgreSQL before Patroni had taken the reload, leaving the old
shared_buffers with a restart pending. It now waits for Patroni to report
the restart pending, restarts with restart_pending (replicas first, the
leader last), and restarts a member it finds pending from an earlier run.
Applied to the PoC: pg01 978MB, ctl02 (control plane beside it) 587MB,
both from 128MB; streaming, lag 0, gateways unaffected.

An adapter now has an owner (org, team, project, user or key): only callers
there see it, and to anyone else it is a model that does not exist, absent
from /v1/models too. A training job's owner defaults to the one collection
its pairs come from, must be able to read every collection they come from,
and pairs from a knowledge base are never made public. ctl train publish
keeps the GGUF or PEFT files on the mirror, which accepts uploads now, and
sets the owned adapter after the usual architecture check.
The knowledge bases' cache_salt follows the collections searched rather
than the organization, so two teams of one organization no longer share
cached passages.

A job names the catalog model the adapter is for, the safetensors weights to
train on, the node and the MiB of a card it needs, and question/answer pairs.
The control plane sends it when the node's agent is there and nothing else
trains on it; the agent trains with its installed vLLM's torch and a pinned
overlay of peft and accelerate (no second environment), as the engines'
user, on the card with that much free — beside an engine, if it leaves that
much — converts the adapter to GGUF with the installed llama.cpp's own
conversion code when the model is served by llama.cpp, and sends what it
made back in pieces, kept in the store to download. Progress, loss and peak
card memory are reported as it goes; a node that goes fails its job.

A chat model of the cluster reads each chunk and writes questions a person
might ask of it with the answers it holds, streamed as NDJSON a chunk at a
time, for people to correct before an adapter is trained on it. A chunk that

agents.default and agents.nodes.<id> in the cluster's settings hold
everything agent.yaml can say but the agent's id, control planes, address and
certificate, which stay in the file and are refused there. The control plane
sends each node its settings on register and, a second apart, when they
change; an agent whose settings changed checks they load beside its file,
keeps them and starts again on them, engines serving throughout. An edited
agent.yaml that loads restarts the agent too. History, audit, ctl config, the

"how do I kill all child processes in bash" 0.92 unsafe, against 0.97 to

A site had "continue" refused. Qwen3Guard-Gen 0.6B gave the ordinary ones
0.15 at the most and the harmful ones 1.00, in 0.8 GB on CPUs.
- format qwen3guard: its prompt written out as its template writes it, for
requests and answers, and its Safe / Unsafe / Controversial verdict read;
controversial counts as the policy's judge.controversial says, safe by
default.
- judge.models: judges asked in turn, the first that answers deciding; a
failure is recorded against the judge that failed. guard judge use sets
the order, replacing categories none of the judges names.
- known judges (Qwen3Guard 0.6B/4B/8B, Llama Guard 1B/8B): guard judge
enable serves any of them, --gpu the 4B on the roomiest GPU class as a
standard model; the leader fetches and serves one a policy names that the
catalog lacks.
- server init installs qwen3guard-0.6b with the baseline's categories.
- a judge reads a long text by its start and end, which fit its context,
rather than overflowing it and refusing the request under fail: closed.

Issue #3 asked for commands to stop and start the system, and 05aa21c gave
only one machine's services. Now:
- llmgw stop sets serving.stopped in the cluster's settings, live: the
reconciler wants every model at no replicas, freeing every GPU, and the
gateway answers every POST under /v1/ with 503 system_stopped. The control
planes, agents and mirror keep running, and no model's definition changes.
- llmgw start clears it; every model is placed again as it asks.
- llmgw restart has every agent restart over its stream (RestartAgent), then
the other control planes over ssh, standbys before a leader, then this
one; engines keep serving.
- llmgw status is the cluster's summary, saying when it is stopped.
One machine's services moved to llmgw service status|start|stop|restart.

SetCompute on an engine adopted from an earlier agent called writeState,

engine-check looked for llama-server one directory too shallow; the agent

The agent now takes compute from nvidia-smi - the GPUs the shard's processes
hold memory on, and how much - or CPU, for every engine, falling back to it
when llama.cpp's output says nothing; adopted engines get it too, and each
session reports it once per shard as a compute-only status. engine-check
runs its GPU token at -lv 4, where llama.cpp does say where its layers went.

A model's replicas restarted one at a time, always. RestartPace says how
many restart at once: MaxSurge beside themselves (replacement first),
MaxUnavailable stopped first (no room needed, out while loading); the
reconciler begins that many per model per pass. The admin API takes
max_surge and max_unavailable on POST /api/v1/restart.

NodeView carries engine_versions and compute_capabilities; ctl nodes shows
llamacpp b10991 and 6000-24g (7.5). A profile's engine_version restricts it
to nodes whose engine version starts with it, and explain-placement says
which version a node has, or which engines it has when it lacks the one
asked for.

Seeing a device is not computing on it. For llama.cpp on a machine with
NVIDIA GPUs, engine-check now loads a small GGUF (--model, or the smallest in
the weights cache) with every layer on the GPU, asks for one token, and
reads from llama.cpp's own output where the layers went: a build that
computes on the CPU fails, naming the fix. With no --bin it checks the build
the agent installed under /opt/llmgw/engines.

llama.cpp's start-up output is read as a shard becomes ready: the devices it
used, its backend, and the layers it offloaded. That goes up with READY in a
new ShardStatus.compute, is kept on the shard, and is shown by the admin
API, ctl replicas (ON) and the console (COMPUTE). A shard given GPUs whose
engine says it found no usable GPU or offloaded no layer is stopped and
failed, even where nvidia-smi cannot be asked.
