llmgw ctl model gpus MODEL N [--profile P] [--in-place],
POST /api/v1/models/{name}/gpus and the console's GPUs…: how many cards of
one node each replica uses. Tensor parallel for vLLM, SGLang and
TensorRT-LLM, held to the model's KV heads (modelplan.SplitsHeads, now one
rule for the planner and this); the layers split for llama.cpp, its old
--tensor-split dropped. Refused for a count no node has, for cards that
would not hold the weights and the context, and for engines on one card.
The replicas start again beside the old ones; with no room beside them the
command says so, and --in-place stops each first.

Strata (github.com/Niko1221/Strata) keeps a mixture-of-experts model's
experts in RAM and the ones used most in VRAM; on cuda01's RTX 6000 it
serves Qwen3.8-Flash-Next 125B at 70-87 tokens a second to one client.
- engines/strata.go: the adapter. The agent starts llmgw strata-serve,
which runs Strata's setup the way its desktop app does
(STRATA_CONTROL_INSTALL: installs nothing, writes only under the
replica's and the node's directories) on the fetched GGUF files, points
the configuration it writes at the installed engine, and execs Strata's
server. The key goes in STRATA_API_KEY, never on a command line.
- A profile's args go to setup: --family, --size (setup's --model, which
is the source everywhere else), --context, --parallel, ... Flags that
move files or pick the engine or GPU are refused.
- provision: the source pinned by digest in a Python environment, and the
release's prebuilt engine unpacked beside it, checked against the digest
GitHub publishes: CUDA 13 (7.5+, driver 580) or CUDA 12.9 (6.0-8.9,
driver 575). Python builds can now carry release assets.
- Metrics are vLLM's names under /metrics/prometheus.
- The catalog wants one card and a family, and a directory, not one .gguf.
Opt-in: not in DefaultEngines.

mirror add-peer, run on the mirror's machine, sets up a mirror on
another over ssh, kept in step with this one: llmgw there if it has
none, mirror init --peer, this mirror told of it and allowed to be read

offer one on either database machine, as server init --second-mirror.

mirror.peers names the mirrors kept in step with mirror.api. The
mirror's management calls go to the first that can be reached, and
each mirror is asked every fifteen seconds whether it answers: a shard
is sent its model's and adapters' address on one that does while the
mirror the catalog names is down.

From review.
- /profile asked before signing in keeps its query for ten minutes, and
the sign-in (password or OIDC) returns to it: VS Code's sign-in state
came back lost, and the confirmation came every time. Only /profile is
ever returned to.
- The extension keeps an https gateway at https when a link names it by
plain http (a proxy ending TLS unannounced), so the key is never sent in
the clear. The install command says --force, since dev builds share a
version and VS Code kept the old one.
- Every frame of every install recording is checked for a key, a
password or a private key, not only the page.
- The admin API document again matches the API: f94d902's
MCPServerRequest.clear was not in it.
- CHANGELOG for this round's fixes.

From review. An adapter given by its id is downloaded by vLLM itself, and
a TensorRT-LLM model by its id by TensorRT-LLM, past the node's check and
not held to safetensors: a model with either is refused when it is added,
unless it says allow_pickle, with how to mirror its safetensors instead.
vLLM's own model by id stays allowed: the agent gives it --load-format
safetensors. A test holds every preset to its own pickle check.

From review.
- A service two policies name is asked the stricter way of the two, both
directions and block over flag, rather than as the first one says.
- A service answering null where it says unsafe gave no answer, not safe.
- With restore: true, the kept answer had the request's redacted values in
it beside the redacted request; they are taken out again before it is
kept.
- guardrails.md says what fail: open lets through, and that of n answers a
service reads the first.
- The similar cache's embedding failures are logged once a minute, not per
request; the page's test reads the gateway's local MCP handler under its
lock; org/name:Q4_K_M is not taken for a Hugging Face id to read as
safetensors.

At the user's asking: we know what a card's link could be, so a card
linked slower is reported. Each agent reads, apart from the GPU query so
that a driver not knowing a field costs nothing else, the fastest PCIe
generation card and slot allow together, the card's own, and the lanes in
use and the card's most (nvidia-smi; NVML in the nvml build). The current
generation is not compared: it drops while a card idles. A card on fewer
lanes, or a slot of an older generation, is a node warning with the GB/s
it carries against what it could — on the dashboard, the console and in
llmgw doctor, which points at lspci's LnkCap and LnkSta. MIG instances are
said of their card. GPU proto fields 23-26.

- The similar-question cache embeds a question as its project would: a
project kept in the cluster has external fallbacks refused, and an
embedding model outside the cluster is not asked at all. The vectors are
compared outside the cache's lock. The question's bound is in characters.
- The restorer puts values back in streamed tool calls' arguments (escaped
for the JSON they are), completions' text and reasoning, each held across
events on its own, and releases a held tail with the finish event. A
whole answer is walked as JSON, so a value with a quote no longer breaks
tool-call arguments.
- An outside guardrail service reads the user's turn as redacted, and a
streamed answer once rather than at the finish chunk and again at the
end. guardrails.md says it can stop a stream only under buffer_all.
- A replica's smoothed time to first token is forgotten after five minutes
without an answer: one found slow and then given nothing was never tried
again.

From review. A mirror set already on the node is looked at again, not
trusted for having been fetched once; Pickled cuts a query or a fragment
from any source, hf: too; .pt2 is a pickle. The flag check reads a flag as
the engine does: underscores as dashes and any beginning of a refused flag
as that flag, since argparse takes --trust-remote for --trust-remote-code;
SGLang refuses --load-format, which would undo the agent's safetensors.
TripoSR's preset says allow_pickle: without it the preset could not be
added and the presets pass failed on it each time. A shared ComfyUI
environment's hidden entry takes its first member's allow_pickle, as it
takes its source.
The GenAI trace attributes made temperature and top_p typed fields of the
request's parse, so "0.7" as a string was a 400; they are read loosely,
as they are read only for the trace.

A tool is seen where every level above that names tools names it (store
Effective.AllowsTool). The console and /admin/mcp wrote a level's list as
given, so a team that saw its organization's hr.* through having no list
was given jira.* and then saw neither; and revoking a level's last server
left [] in the store, closed to every tool, shown nowhere.
store.GrantTools and RevokeTools now do both screens' work: a level's first
list starts from the nearest list above it; taking a server away leaves the
others, and a level left naming nothing goes back to no list, or stays
closed when a level above names tools, so it opens to nothing it was kept
from. GrantTools says which levels above still keep the granted tools out
of reach, and both screens say so. The page shows closed levels and member
scopes by name, and offers no revoke for a * grant it would not change. The
console calls the store instead of keys limits with a list built from what
it had loaded, which overwrote changes made since. Found in review.

With restore: true and the answer cache on, alice's "write to
alice@example.com" and bob's "write to bob@example.com" redact to the
same request, and bob was given the answer kept for alice, her address put
back in it. A request with restore values is now never looked up in the
cache nor kept in it.
The similar-question cache compared the last message's text and blanked
its parts: two pictures asked about in the same words were one question.
A last message with any part that is not text is now reused only when the
request is the same.

/admin/mcp, for administrators only, since a server's credential reaches
whatever it guards: each server's state, who has been granted its tools,
its rate, the headers it is sent by name with the sealed ones marked, and
its address; adding one with a bearer token or another header kept in the
store; testing it with its credential and listing its tools; granting them
to a team, project, org, person or key, written into that level's limits
beside its other grants and its rate and budget; revoking; changing;
replacing the credential; turning off and on; removing; and how a person
points an agent at the gateway's /mcp with a key of their own. English and

For each layout modelplan.Options offers here — one card, tensor parallel
across a node's cards, llama.cpp's layer split, a pipeline across nodes on
a fabric — modelplan.GPUTokensPerSecond gives one reply's speed: the bytes
a token reads over each card's bandwidth, by its model name (a table, SXM
and PCIe apart), plus two all-reduces a layer for tensor parallel (8 us on
NVLink, 25 us and up on PCIe), turns between cards for a layer split, and
a hop per node over InfiniBand or RoCE for a pipeline. The explorer and a
repository's files show the fastest, with the layout; mixed classes are
judged class by class, FP8 on 8.9 cards only.
Calibrated on cuda01's Quadro RTX 6000 (672 GB/s): qwen3-vl-8b Q8, 8.7 GB,
62.1 tok/s measured, 59 estimated; Qwen3-Coder-30B-A3B Q4_K_M, 18.6 GB,
144 measured, which says a model of experts reads 1.6 times its active
share (ActiveShare now does, on the CPU too). Tensor parallel and fabrics
are not measured here.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Each agent measures its node's memory read rate when it starts: every CPU
sums a share of a buffer past any cache, a tenth of free memory at most,
the best of four passes, in a fraction of a second; reported in Host
(mem_bandwidth_gbs) and NodeView. A token on a CPU reads every weight it
uses once, so one reply's speed is about that rate over those bytes:
modelplan.CPUTokensPerSecond, 0.68 of the measured rate plus 5 ms a token,
calibrated on the PoC against llama.cpp's predicted_per_second (node01
24.9 GB/s, qwen2.5-1.5b: 14.5 measured, 14.7 estimated; node05 41.9 GB/s,
qwen2.5-14b: 3.3 and 3.2). A model of experts named …-A3B reads its active
part (ActiveShare).
The explorer shows it as CPU tok/s, at Q4_K_M on the fastest node that
holds the model; a repository's page gives it for each GGUF by its size.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Judged by the nodes as they are now, through modelplan.Options, the
planner that serving a model uses: GGUF at Q4_K_M from the parameter count,
safetensors at the size the registry's dtype breakdown gives (packed AWQ,
GPTQ and MXFP4 at four bits), FP8 only where a card has compute capability
8.9, MLX safetensors never. A picture model is judged against one card. A
cluster with cards asks the registry for safetensors too, a hundred at a
time; one without asks for GGUF only. The page says what it judged by: the
largest card, its capability, the most RAM on one node.
On a repository's page a file set no node holds is marked with what it
needs, against what the best node offers, and has no Fetch button.
Tried against the PoC's seven nodes and Hugging Face's trending hundred:
63 shown, the rest too big for one 24 GB Turing card or FP8.

Python pickles (.bin, .pt, .pth, .ckpt, .pkl) run whatever they hold when
loaded, as the engine's user, on the node; that is how the malicious models
found on Hugging Face work. The node refuses such a source, or a mirror set
holding one, before fetching anything. A model added with one, or given
one, is refused, while one already in the catalog still loads and is
refused by its node with the same words. vLLM and SGLang downloading a
model by its id get --load-format safetensors. The mirror page marks the
file. allow_pickle: true on a model lets it through on purpose, carried to
the node in EngineProfile.allow_pickle.
BACKLOG M lists the rest: checksums against Hugging Face on every path,
its own scan, trusted publishers, engines without the internet, an eval
before an untrusted model serves.

llmgw keys cache --similar 0.95 also gives a chat question the answer to
one like it: the last user message embedded by router.cache.embedding_model
(asked on the gateway's account, as a judge is, within 2 s), compared by
cosine with the questions answered in the same conversation — system
prompt, earlier turns, tools and sampling the same. The exact cache is
asked first; an exact hit embeds nothing. Said as x-llmgw-cache: similar
with x-llmgw-cache-similarity, charged as a hit.
The vectors live with their answers in the gateway's memory, counted in
max_bytes and evicted with them, not in a pgvector table as BACKLOG I1
planned: the cache keeps answer text out of the store on purpose. A
question over 2,000 characters is reused only when the same. Migration

A site may be required to use a particular guardrail: Azure Content Safety,
Lakera, NeMo, a classifier of its own. A policy's services asks one over
HTTP — a body template given the text, header values from files read each
call, dotted paths to where the answer says unsafe and why — on input,
output or both, to block or flag. On input it reads the latest user turn
before the judge; on output the whole answer once at its end. A service
that does not answer is what the policy's fail says. It is told the text
only, never who sent it.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
With restore: true on a guardrail policy's input, what redact rewrote as
placeholders comes back in the answer: the model reads "[EMAIL_1]", the
client reads the address it sent. A streamed placeholder split across
events is held until it is whole, and what is held is sent at the end.
The swap runs before the output filter, so the output rules judge the
answer as the client reads it and a placeholder they make of a value the
model invented is never taken for the request's own. The map lives in the
Verdict for the request only; nothing stores, logs or traces it.

A control plane that is also a node, serving the starter model and two
judges, needs about 10.5 GB: 3.5 for itself, 2 for the starter, 2 for each
judge, and one more because the scheduler counts whole gigabytes. On 8 GB
the install did every step and then had nowhere to run the starter. The
setup's checks now fail this machine's memory and name what it would serve,
and server init refuses before it installs anything, naming the flags that
leave those models off it. quick-install.md said 8 GB; it says 12.

An inference request and each attempt at an engine carry gen_ai.*: the
operation, the requested and answering model, max_tokens, temperature and
top_p when the client set them, the session as the conversation id, the

A customer's Grafana, Jaeger or Langfuse then shows llmgw's calls as model

llmgw's own extension for VS Code, plain JavaScript with no dependencies,
packed into a .vsix by the binary at /setup/vscode/llmgw.vsix with the
serving gateway's address in it, so it needs no build, no Node and no
marketplace. It registers llmgw as a language-model provider: the chat's
model picker, agent mode and any extension that asks VS Code for a model
get every chat model the key may use, sized and with tool and vision
capabilities as the catalog says, streamed, tool calls both ways.
VS Code is a tool on the account page's Connect your editor: a key, the
install command, and an Open in VS Code link that hands the key to the
extension's secret storage. The extension's Sign In opens the page with a
state of its own; a link without it is confirmed, the gateway named, since
it decides where code is sent.
Tested in VS Code 1.138 against the PoC: 27 models listed, an answer from
qwen2.5-0.5b-instruct, and qwen3-coder-30b calling a tool and using its
result (internal/vscodeext/e2e).

auth.ldap checks a username and password against the domain controllers
over LDAPS or StartTLS: found with a service account, checked by binding
as the person. Groups, nested ones included, give staff roles and places
in the tree. Accounts are tied to the objectGUID; the leader reads the
directory every 15 minutes, suspends whom it disabled or removed and
reinstates them after, and refuses a sync that would suspend most.
Entra ID sends no groups for someone in more than 200, only where to
fetch them; that was read as none and took an administrator's role away.
It is now left as it was, and logged. An account made by SCIM or OIDC
can be reinstated again.

An external model takes api_key_files, each a file and an optional weight,
in place of api_key_file. Each key is an endpoint of its own
(external:MODEL#1, #2), so the router's scoring, retries and breakers work
per key. A key answering 429 is passed over while its breaker is open. A
key answering 401 is passed over too, and external_key_refused is sent,
naming the endpoint and never the key; with a single key the 401 is still
the client's. A key whose file cannot be read is left out, and usage
records which key answered by its endpoint.

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

Measured again after the store fixes. Cutting the store primary's power no
longer hung requests, but leadership moved anyway: the lease had lapsed for
everyone while Patroni promoted the standby, and a standby asked first. The
new leader then spent about 25 s without its nodes, and so without its
judges.
A standby that saw the store out of reach now leaves the lease alone for one
renew round after the store returns. The default lease is 10 s, and a node
detects a control plane that died silently in 8 s (5 s idle, 3 s ping)
rather than 15.

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.

The game's bridge found three things on the PoC. /mcp held its body to
64 KiB — the edit meant for it had raised the memory notes' limit instead —
so a 1024 px concept sent as base64 failed as "expected one JSON-RPC
request object". The notes are back to 64 KiB, /mcp takes 64 MB, and a
call past it is a 413 saying so.
/v1/files took batch files only, so a picture could not be sent once and
named after. purpose vision and user_data are kept too, as long as job
results, and generate_mesh hands a workflow model the id as it is.
generate_image and review_images failed at once while their model was
cold. They wait out an answer that says when to come back — loading,
another model holding the GPU, a full queue — for as long as the call may,
saying who holds the GPU and about how long; a refusal that says no
Retry-After, a spent budget, is said at once.
