docs(intern-decision): live on fv-ml1 GPU 1; semif marked REPLACED

Browse Source 
intern-decision deployed 0941 PT (cap 9.0 GiB, MAX_TOKENS 7168). Live acceptance: positive
control 240/259 and Wyrd 79/84, bit-identical to the bench (0/560 rows, Δp 0); negative control
10/122/14; largest accepted requests 200 with no 503; per-process 8,812 MiB at rest and 9,866 peak;
GPU 1 Free 15,442 before and 6,581 after (lowest 5,569 under load). Latency from nh3-dev:
21 criteria 114 ms, 16 over ~3,900 tokens 238 ms. semif README banner now REPLACED with the
rollback; fv-ml1 GPU 1 note updated.

- per-workload calibration. Any `workload` is a 422, exactly as the deployed semif behaved
with its empty table.
5. **`MAX_TOKENS` (8192) is per call:** the state plus all its questions. A longer call is a 422
and is never truncated. Every call up to that limit fits the VRAM cap (measured). See VRAM
below.
5. **`MAX_TOKENS` is 7,168 per call:** the state plus all its questions. It is lower than the
model's own 8,192 so that every call the API accepts fits the VRAM cap.
- The count is taken **before** the forward pass, so a longer call is a clear
`422 invalid_request` ("Example has N tokens, above 7168; truncation is forbidden"). It is
never truncated.
- A request with more decisions is split into more calls, and each call must fit.
## VRAM: the whole container ≤ 10,300 MiB
## VRAM: fits beside scriberr's peak, whatever the request
**Budget (infra-ops, 2026-09-30):** the container's **whole** nvidia-smi footprint, CUDA context
included, must never exceed **10,300 MiB**, whatever the request. That leaves scriberr (peak
5,496 MiB with its 120 s slices) 295 MiB of spare even when both hit their peaks at once.
`torch.cuda.set_per_process_memory_fraction` caps only torch's allocator, so the cap is the budget
minus the measured non-allocator overhead:
**Budget (infra-ops, 2026-09-30):** GPU 1 needs nvidia-smi `Free` ≥ **15,400 MiB** before this
service starts. That is our card peak of 9,876 MiB plus scriberr's peak of 5,496 MiB (with its
120 s slices), rounded up. So both can peak at the same moment. Read nvidia-smi's own `Free`, not
total − used: the driver reserves 640 MiB on every card. The deploy at 0940 read 15,442.
`torch.cuda.set_per_process_memory_fraction` caps only torch's allocator. The two knobs in `.env`
are therefore chosen together and change together:
```
footprint <= VRAM_CAP_GIB + overhead = 9,472 MiB (9.25 GiB) + 662 MiB = 10,134 MiB (166 MiB under budget)
card footprint <= VRAM_CAP_GIB 9.0 (9,216 MiB) + 660 MiB outside the allocator (measured) = 9,876 MiB
MAX_TOKENS 7168 = the largest call measured to fit under that cap, so no accepted call reaches the 503
```
`VRAM_CAP_GIB` in `.env` is **the single knob**. It is applied before the weights load.

| GPU 1 `Free` before the deploy / at rest after / lowest during the acceptance | 15,442 / 6,581 / 5,569, which stays above scriberr's 5,496 |
⚠ **The budget assumed 16,081 MiB free on GPU 1. That is total − used.** nvidia-smi's own `Free` is
**15,442 MiB**, because the driver reserves 640 MiB on every card (GPU 3 shows the same 640).
Against the true free memory, a footprint that never collides with scriberr's 5,496 MiB peak must
stay at or below **9,946 MiB**:
- ⚠ **At 7,168 tokens the allocator reaches the cap with about 4 MiB to spare.** It fits because
the allocator frees its cache and retries before it fails.
- Measured: every call up to the limit answered 200. That is 145 shared calls on the live
service, including the size search near the boundary, 3 × 4 calls at 7,168 tokens with
16 questions, and 3 at 7,168 tokens with one question. No 503 was seen.
- The allocator's cache state depends on request history. If a max-size call ever does return
503, lower `MAX_TOKENS`. Do not raise the cap.
- Raising either knob needs a fresh measurement (`acceptance/checks.py --checks fit,maxreq`) and
the budget re-checked against scriberr.
- **Over the cap the answer is 503 `out_of_memory`.** Memory returns to the resting baseline and
the service keeps answering. This was proven on GPU 3 with a deliberately tight cap.

| **peak, largest request the API accepts, capped at 9.25 GiB** (card, 0.1 s sampling) | **10,134**; torch `max_reserved` = 9.25 GiB exactly, so the cap is what held it |

| startup peak (weights + vision tower until the swap + warm-up) | allocator 8.86 GiB. **A cap below ~8.9 GiB cannot start** (it fails closed; 8.5 was refused) |
- **The largest request the API accepts** is 64 decisions × 16 options, with each of its 4 calls
at 8,191 tokens. Under the cap it answers **200** (1.67 s), not 503. Near the limit the
allocator frees cached blocks before it fails, so the uncapped 9,760 MiB peak was partly cache.
Every call up to `MAX_TOKENS` fits the cap.
- **Over the cap the answer is 503 `out_of_memory`.** Memory goes back to the resting baseline
and the service keeps answering. This was proven with a deliberately tight cap (acceptance).
