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.

Its tools say what llmgw ctl does: cluster_status, list_nodes,
list_models, list_replicas, explain_placement, node_logs; none changes
anything. The admin API serves it at POST /api/v1/mcp, and the gateway
answers a server registered as llmgw:admin in its own process, so no
token is kept and each control plane serves it. ctl mcp add takes
--bearer-file for a token sent as Authorization: Bearer.

Found on a fresh HA install with a judge machine: the leader saw the
policy's judge missing while init was still fetching it, served one
itself, and its entry replaced init's, so a second judge ran off the
judge machine. The keeper now waits ten minutes after it starts, and a
serve job it starts gives way to a model added meanwhile (AddNew).

People → Sign-in shows single sign-on, Active Directory and SCIM, and
the directory's last sync. E sets up Entra ID from the tenant and client
IDs; D sets up Active Directory, tried from the control plane first:
each server bound, people who may sign in, members of each mapped group.
The secrets go into the store as store:auth/..., sealed by the master
key, and the CA into the settings, so no control plane needs a file.

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.

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.

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

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.

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

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.

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.

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
console and the portal's settings page cover them as the rest of the
settings.

Llama Guard 3 1B could not tell ordinary coding requests from harmful ones:
on the PoC it scored "continue" 0.51, "continue the code above" 0.89 and
"how do I kill all child processes in bash" 0.92 unsafe, against 0.97 to
1.00 for harmful requests, at Q4_K_M and Q8_0 alike, with its own template.
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.

guard.enabled (unset is on) makes every policy check nothing while false,
live: llmgw ctl guard off/on set it in the cluster's settings, and ctl
status, ctl guard list and the guardrails page say when they are off.
A refusal by a judge names the hazard it saw - judge: S6,Specialized
Advice - and the verdict is kept with the request in a new usage column,
guard_rule, shown by ctl request, the request log and the guardrails page.
llmgw ctl guard judge ask has a judge read a text, past the cache, and shows
its raw answer and how it is read; the endpoint is kept out of the audit so
no text is recorded.

llmgw ctl guard judge status lists each judge model the policies ask:
in the catalog, as a judge, replicas ready, its last failure to answer, and
what is wrong in words. enable serves the missing one through model serve -
Llama Guard 3 1B on CPUs, role guard, under the name the policies give it -
with --replace for a model of that name that is not a judge; the console has
it under Do. GET /api/v1/guard/judges, and the summary's judges, put the
problem on ctl status and the console's Overview.
A Llama Guard file served from the mirror page is added as a judge, under
the name the policies ask, rather than as a model clients use the policies
never find. ctl says plainly when the API answers with a page.

firewall.enabled (default true) is a cluster setting, applied live: the
leader sends a Firewall message to every agent when it registers and when
the setting or firewall_networks changes, and the agent (root) takes llmgw's
nft table out or installs it. A control plane writes the state to
/var/lib/llmgw/firewall.json, which llmgw-firewall-sync.path applies as root
with `llmgw firewall sync`; server init and server add install the units,
`llmgw firewall sync --install` on one set up before. node add and server
add put no firewall on a machine while the setting is off.
`llmgw wipe` removes llmgw from a machine after listing what goes and asking
for its name: units, engines' processes, the nft table, /etc/llmgw,
/var/lib/llmgw, the agent's state, the sudo grant, the CA from the trust
store, keepalived's configuration when llmgw wrote it, and the users.
--models, --store (Patroni member, etcd, or the local database) and --all
take more. The console has it under Do.

Everything in server.yaml that is not one machine's own is now a versioned
document in the store (cluster_settings), the same on every control plane.
The first start against a store imports the file's cluster keys, with the
baseline guard policy when there is none; after that those keys in a file
are ignored, with a warning.
Each control plane polls the document's version and its own server.yaml's
hash. A change is validated and applied: guard live (Gate.Replace), anything
else by a graceful restart that systemd brings back, standbys first and the
leader 30s later. A version that does not load on a machine is not applied;
at start the newest one that loads is used, so a bad edit cannot keep every
control plane down.
llmgw ctl config show/get/set/unset/edit/history/rollback, the admin API
under /api/v1/settings, and the console's Settings screen, which layers the
store's document over the machine's file, write it. Commands beside the
control plane that read cluster keys (init, node add, server add, backup,
upgrade) read the layered configuration; init --bundle writes offline to
the store once it holds the settings.
A standby that becomes the leader re-reads models, engine choices and
facility holds from the store.

A proxy left pointing at a standby showed an empty cluster: the portal and
the admin pages read the standby's own memory. A standby now passes its
client port to the leader's, all but /health, /ready and /leader, which
must describe the machine a load balancer is choosing; and its admin port
passes the dashboard as well as the API. The leader trusts the control
planes' X-Forwarded-For, so clients keep their own address.
The changelog's candidate section is "Unreleased" again: release notes
for an rc read that section, and v0.11.3-rc.1 got none.
The e2e wait for two endpoints is 30s: under the race detector on a busy

With the agent server closed rather than drained, the process could exit

The console and ctl on a standby showed its own empty view: nodes and
replicas live in the leader's memory. A standby now passes /api/ to the
leader over the agent port, with the cluster's certificates both ways; the
leader answers only a certificate naming a control plane the store lists,
and only while it leads. Control plane certificates are issued for client
use as well, and server add reissues older ones.
An agent's reconnect backoff starts again after a session that worked, so
each failover it lives through no longer makes the next one slower.

A control plane being stopped held every agent's stream for the thirty
seconds of a graceful shutdown, so the standby led within four seconds and
had no nodes for thirty. The agent server is now closed, not drained. A
control plane that loses its lease while it lives on lets its agents go,
rather than keeping nodes the new leader cannot reach.
ctl status and the console's Overview say which control plane leads, which
stand by, and whether the floating address is on the leader. The console
adds a control plane (Do → Add a control plane), asking for the machine and
the floating address. server add says when the mirror would refuse the new
control plane.

Plan §7.5 tier 2, opt-in per profile with kv_events. The agent starts vLLM
publishing KV cache events to a loopback port it listens on (pure-Go zmq4,
msgpack in both of vLLM's encodings), with sha256_cbor hashing and a fixed
PYTHONHASHSEED; it mirrors each engine's blocks and sends net changes up the
existing stream, with a full copy on every new one and a reset on gaps,
restarts and clears. The control plane hands them to the router, for the
sending node's own replicas only. The router tokenizes through a replica's
/tokenize, hashes the tokens as vLLM does (checked against cbor2/hashlib
golden values), and scores replicas by the share of leading blocks held,
falling back to the approximate tree. New metrics beside
llmgw_prefix_decisions_total. Untested against a running vLLM.

Nodes say where they are with llmgw.io/site, room, row, rack and pdu labels,
from agent.yaml or `llmgw ctl label` (kept in the store, over the agent's).
Placement spreads a model's replicas across racks and PDUs, keeps a
multi-node replica within one domain when its profile says keep_within,
places nothing in a domain held with `llmgw ctl facility hold` (optionally
draining it), and refuses a shard that would take a domain past its power
cap from facility.budgets, counting declared, derived and measured draw.
Explain-placement names the domain, and keeps the rejections of a placed
replica; `ctl nodes` gains LOCATION and --domain; `ctl facility` lists the
domains; the console's Nodes view shows and sets location and holds.

A bundle carries what a cluster would download — llmgw's release with its
signed checksums, every llama.cpp build per architecture with GitHub's
checksums, model files pinned and checked against Hugging Face's — into a
directory or a tar whose manifest sha256 is carried apart. Import checks
everything, the release against the signing key, before anything is put in
the mirror. With offline.mirror set, nodes install llama.cpp from the
mirror against checksums the control plane holds and sends over the agent
stream; releases default to the mirror for node add, ctl upgrade and agent
upgrades. server init and the setup form install from a bundle.
The Helm chart runs one control plane with SQLite on a claim or an external

A reconcile pass that does something is a trace, with placement (where it
went, or every candidate turned down), scale-up/down, drain, stop, eviction,
preemption, reaping and restarts beneath it. A replica's start is a span open
from placement until it serves; the start command carries its context in a
new ControlMessage.trace field, and the agent continues the trace through
the weights fetch, engine launch, rendezvous and readiness wait. Stops,
drains, adoption and engine installs are traced on the node, model jobs are
a trace with a span per step linked to the replica's start, and agent.yaml
takes the same tracing block as server.yaml. Off, every span is the no-op one
and commands carry nothing.
