Verbatim-index.html booths were served raw (FileResponse) with no base
template, so they had no favicon and no way back to the booth index — the
gap the app-rendered gallery/zoom pages already covered via base.html.
booth_view now reads a small verbatim index.html and, via a pure
wrap_verbatim_html(), injects:
- a fixed-position 'all booths' chip (scoped class, max z-index, hidden
in print), pinned top-right (empty on left-aligned report layouts; a
top-left chip clips the page title) and appended at the END of the
document so it never reorders the page;
- the Booth favicon at the first head-ish seam, only if the page declares
no icon of its own.
Injection is doctype/charset-safe for the compact HTML real booths use
(<!doctype html><meta charset><title><style>…content, no explicit head/
body): nothing is ever placed ahead of a leading <!doctype> (which would
force quirks mode), and the ~250B favicon link keeps the charset <meta>
inside the first-1024-byte detection window. The raw file route
(/b/<name>/index.html) stays byte-for-byte, so assets and ?dl=1 downloads
are unchanged; files over 8 MB serve raw, unwrapped.
Verified live on nh3-dev :8090 across the real booth shapes (compact-HTML
crow-*/jackdaw-*/mimir-favicon, well-formed dcc-summarizer-ab, own-icon
edict-favicon). 10 new tests; suite 38 passing.
A verbatim index.html booth (e.g. edict-design-brief: a rendered brief + its
.md) had no download affordance — the page is served raw with no gallery/per-file
chrome. Adds:
- GET /b/<name>/?download=1 -> streams the whole booth as <name>.zip (attachment)
- GET /b/<name>/<file>?dl=1 -> forces Content-Disposition: attachment (html/md/
text otherwise render inline with no easy save)
- a download link on the index card (the accessible spot for verbatim booths)
and the gallery header
Tests for both; verified live against edict-design-brief on nh3-dev :8090.
Adds a "⧉ copy" button next to the pickup id that copies the id to the
clipboard (flips to "✓ copied"). The Booth serves over plain HTTP on a LAN IP,
where navigator.clipboard is undefined (secure-context only) — so the handler
falls back to a hidden-textarea execCommand('copy') that works over HTTP.
Verified on the LAN-IP (non-secure) path: isSecureContext=false, clipboard API
absent, button state flips, no errors. Reusable via any .copy-btn[data-copy].
Clicking a gallery image now opens a dedicated viewer instead of dumping you on
the raw file.
- GET /b/<name>/view?f=<img> — full-viewport viewer (registered before the file
catch-all so /view wins; non-image f 307-redirects to the raw file, traversal
and missing f 404).
- Fit (downscale-only) / 1:1 (natural pixels, scroll-to-pan) toggle that only
appears when the image is larger than the viewport — when it already fits,
Fit ≡ 1:1 so the toggle is hidden. Re-evaluates on resize.
- Download button + ✕/Esc back to the gallery. Australis-themed, progressive
JS (degrades to fit-only, no-JS still shows the image + download + back).
- 5 new tests (34 total, all green); verified Fit/1:1/hidden-toggle states in a
real browser.
Add a reverse direction to the Booth: the operator (or any client via `curl -F`)
can upload files through the browser and pick them up by a human-readable id.
- POST /upload — streams files to a new booth named with a human-readable id
(e.g. 4-wombat / star-84), 303-redirects to /b/<id>/ (id in the Location
header so curl clients can read it). Uploads reuse the whole booth machinery
(render, per-file download links, 24h TTL sweep, delete).
- Human-readable ids: word+number in either order, collision-checked, from a
curated 140-word friendly list; secrets-based selection.
- Safety: filenames reduced to a safe basename (no traversal), streaming size
cap (BOOTH_MAX_UPLOAD_MB, default 1024) + file-count cap (BOOTH_MAX_FILES,
default 50), partial-write cleanup on any failure.
- UI: Australis-themed upload/drop panel (drag-drop, progressive-enhancement JS,
degrades to a native file input), a "⬆ pickup" badge on upload booths, a
pickup banner, and a ⬇ download link on every gallery item.
- python-multipart dependency; homepage tile description updated; 9 new tests
(24 total, all green).
- Wipe "×" is now an opaque dark control-scrim with an always-light glyph, so
it stays legible over bright thumbnails bleeding through AND in both themes
(the glyph no longer follows --fg-*, which flipped dark-on-dark in light mode).
- "Wipe now" is a red-outline danger button (bright-red text/border, fills red
on hover) instead of muted gray-on-transparent that read as illegible.
- Destructive hover text is white on red (was dark-on-red, low contrast).
- Nudge expiry sub-text --fg-muted -> --fg-3 for a bit more contrast.
Re-skin the Booth in the fleet's Australis palette (aurora accents, dark-first),
token values adopted from ratatoskr-web's canonical colors_and_type.css:
--aus-* palette, --rk-* console surfaces (#171a23 canvas), Space Grotesk /
Inter / Berkeley Mono stacks, aurora-cyan brand + glow focus rings, red
reserved for the destructive wipe action. Self-contained, no webfont CDN;
light theme via prefers-color-scheme. Only base.html changes (the content
templates keep their class names).
A standing user-level web server (nh3-dev :8090) that renders drop-folders
under ~/booth-data as ephemeral media "booths" so Claude Code sessions can
surface A/B renders and smoke results to the operator, then let them self-wipe.
- Scan-and-serve model, no database, no upload API — a booth is just a folder.
A folder's own index.html is served verbatim; otherwise an auto-gallery of
images / webm+mp4 video / audio is rendered, with <file>.txt caption sidecars
folded in (labels A/B pairs).
- 24h TTL from newest mtime in the tree; background sweeper wipes stale booths.
- Path-traversal + symlink-escape guarded; delete via UI button or DELETE API.
- FastAPI + Jinja2, runs from the checkout under systemctl --user (booth.service),
alongside the other nh3-dev fleet sidecars. 15 tests, all green.
- Homepage tile added (Apps -> The Booth, siteMonitor /healthz).
- Harden the homepage rsync doc: exclude *.bak* and logs/ so --delete can't
wipe the host's dated services.yaml backups (footgun found deploying this).
The fast char-rp-reasoning seat works: ~77 tok/s (vs GGUF ~59.5, base NVFP4 ~53),
MTP draft-acceptance 32-40%, mean acceptance length 2.19. Same Heretic2/NEO-CODE
model, NVFP4 + native qwen3_5_mtp spec-decode.
Full end-to-end recipe + the four landmines in docs/runbooks/heretic2-nvfp4-mtp-seat.md:
(1) load as AutoModelForImageTextToText not AutoModelForCausalLM (namespace/gibberish);
(2) modelopt format not compressed-tensors (compressed-tensors MTP = 0% accept);
(3) modelopt 0.45 <-> transformers 5.12.1 FusedMoE crash (guarded in quant_modelopt.py);
(4) vLLM 0.24.0 does NOT propagate modelopt exclude_modules to the spec-decode draft
model -> BF16 mtp head gets quantized -> shape crash; no checkpoint config fixes it
(is_layer_skipped is exact-membership not glob) -> fix is a mounted sitecustomize that
force-skips mtp.* in is_layer_skipped (upstream vLLM bug to report).
Scripts: quant_modelopt.py (FusedMoE guard + single-shard export + multimodal load),
finalize_modelopt_mtp.py (splice bf16 mtp), serve_modelopt_mtp.sh, run_quant_modelopt.sh,
sitecustomize-mtp-workaround.py.
Root-caused the NVFP4 gibberish to a quant-namespace bug: quant_nvfp4.py loaded
via AutoModelForCausalLM -> text-only Qwen3_5ForCausalLM -> flat model.layers.* keys,
but vLLM 0.24 serves only Qwen3_5ForConditionalGeneration (whose weight mapper needs
model.language_model.*). Fixed by loading as AutoModelForImageTextToText; NVFP4 now
serves coherent (validated greedy on ana-ml2 GPU0).
Base NVFP4 (compressed-tensors) measured ~53 tok/s (~= GGUF at batch-1, no single-stream
win) and its MTP is 0% acceptance (vLLM's Qwen3_5MTP drafter loads the bf16 mtp head only
off a modelopt main-model checkpoint). Added quant_modelopt.py (nvidia-modelopt PTQ,
matches AEON's NVFP4 W4A4 g16 + lm_head/linear_attn/visual exclusions) as the path to
working native MTP; graft + splice + serve otherwise unchanged.
Captures the full pipeline recipe (graft->quant->splice->config->serve) with every
gotcha found this session, the 3 gibberish suspects, and the diagnostic ladder
(validate native-config no-MTP coherence FIRST) for a fresh session to finish the
chase. Also stages the NVFP4 scripts + 512-row calib. Recent decisions: NEO-CODE
seat swap (R36), webhook ALLOWED_HOST_LIST fix. Lessons: validate-tracer-bullet-first,
mtp-graft-dropped-at-load, gitea-204-red-herring.
The ufw fix (prior commit) was necessary but insufficient. The DECISIVE blocker
was gitea webhook.ALLOWED_HOST_LIST = 'external, 10.100.0.0/16' (NH3 only) —
corviduo-dev is 10.250.50.152 (Anaheim), so gitea refused to deliver ('deny
10.250.50.152') and never opened the TCP connection. Fixed to 'external,
10.0.0.0/8' (whole fleet, matches the ufw choice) + gitea restart.
Listener now logs every delivery (source-IP/hmac_ok/ref/action) — the old
log_message=pass silence hid the whole failure. Proven end-to-end: real gitea
delivery -> hmac_ok=True, ref=main, 202 deploying -> green deploy.
render-verify caught it: Dvalin's calib tool_calls carry OpenAI wire-form JSON
string arguments, but the Qwen3.6 chat template does .items() on arguments (needs
a dict) → jinja TypeError. Parse string->dict in render_verify + the quant's
load_calib_chat. Confirmed: renders the exact qwen3_coder XML the seat emits
(prefixed bifrost.soong-lab.*, v0.3.13 generate_portrait, <think>, <tool_response>).
Extracted from the deployed backend (bifrost/tools.py) via the venv with a
capturing mock register_tool — the LIVE schema, not a stale copy. OpenAI-function
form for brokkr/Dvalin's ~128-row tool-call-XML calib slice (R36 #355 anchor).
soong-dev found the studio serving a stale web/ (52015 vs 55025 bytes — missing the
01-Role section, favicon, thinking-status): the deploy rsynced backend/ but never web/,
so SOONG_LAB_WEB_DIR stayed pinned to the initial manual copy while the backend updated.
Deploy now rsyncs BOTH backend/->studio AND web/->SOONG_LAB_WEB_DIR (read from the env)
on every green run. Verified: served frontend now 55025 bytes, current.
Per operator call (no gitea write token on the Worldtree-team VM): a 2-min systemd
--user timer on nh3-dev polls corviduo's last-deploy.json and pings soong-dev via
althing on a NEW red deploy (green stays silent). Delivers soong-dev's red-run
visibility without a credential on corviduo. Tested (red detect+format DRY, green quiet).
comfy-dev's explicit-over-implicit call: arbo now sends train_id, so the
worker no longer derives the loras/trained/{train_id}/ namespace from
output_dir.parent (which coupled it to arbo's handoff layout). train_id is
optional + path-safe-validated; when present it wins, else the path
derivation remains as the fallback. Wired through TrainRequest ->
validate_request -> published_relative_path -> _publish_lora. 18 tests green.
On a train reaching succeeded, IN ADDITION to output/{name}.safetensors
(unchanged download source), COPY it into ComfyUI's loras search path at
/storetank/arbo/models/loras/trained/{train_id}/{name}.safetensors and
return published_lora_name (the ComfyUI-relative LoraLoader string) in the
terminal GET /train/{id} payload (arbo Phase 2 auto-registration, §4.1/§7).
- Copy not move; a publish failure NEVER fails the train (keeps succeeded,
omits published_lora_name, logs the reason to the tailable run log).
- INV-T7-safe: a copy to a fixed computed path, no new free-form args.
- train_id derived from the handoff layout (output_dir.parent.name).
- Provisions loras/trained/ (arbotrain 2775, group-write per the Phase-1
lesson; world-readable/traversable for ComfyUI) via the deploy playbook.
- ComfyUI verified to resolve nested loras subfolders (no flat fallback).
- Pure path helper unit-tested; 16 tests green.
The first real arbo train 422'd: SDXL checkpoints live at
/storetank/arbo/models/checkpoints/ (the 2026-06-13 move to the 1.8TB
/storetank volume), which wasn't in ALLOWED_MODEL_ROOTS — the old roots
predated the move (/worktank/models is gone, /worktank/comfyui host path
is empty; ComfyUI mounts /storetank/arbo/models -> /basedir/models inside
its container). Allowlist /storetank/arbo/models (llmuser-readable,
world-readable tree), drop the two stale roots. Regression test added (15 green).
comfy-dev cross-check: Sindra v1/v2 used alpha=dim/2 (0.5 LoRA scaling),
which produced the validated likeness; the initial alpha=dim (1.0) was a
stronger, unvalidated default. Align the default to the proven value
(operator/per-request can still override). Tests updated (14 green).
Host service (runs as llmuser, owns /opt/fluxgym + GPU access) that runs
sd-scripts SDXL LoRA training on demand for arbo — the infra-ops half of the
in-arbo LoRA training Phase 1 ownership split (vh/arbo
docs/contracts/in-arbo-lora-training-phase1.contract.md §4.1/§2).
- Fixed-invocation only (INV-T7): bounded params -> one sd-scripts command
shape; every param range/allowlist/path-containment checked before spawn;
bad request = 422, never a silent downgrade. 14 unit tests green.
- Thin supervisor: never imports torch; subprocesses the fluxgym venv's
accelerate. 1-job-at-a-time (arbo lease is the serializer, 409 is backstop).
Durable job records + boot reconciliation (§4.3).
- API: POST /train, GET /train/{id}[/log], POST /train/{id}/cancel,
GET /gpu-status (per-device VRAM + tts_on_3090 co-OOM signal), GET /healthz.
- Wire-shape (§7 resolved with comfy-dev): shared /worktank/arbo/train handoff
(group arbotrain, setgid 2770); worker binds 0.0.0.0:8203, arbo reaches via
host.docker.internal:host-gateway (reachability proven on 172.20.0.1:8203);
device-aware TTS steering via /gpu-status.
Deployed to irv-ml1 via playbooks/deploy-lora-training-worker.yaml (elway,
idempotent); systemd unit active; /healthz + /gpu-status verified live.
