Session (2026-08-05): 3 Booth features live+tagged (verbatim-wrap chip, .md/.txt
doc-viewer, image prev/next arrows); worldtree herald re-nudge bug -> forseti
althing-core v2.1.2; fleet-CI-resilience flip attempted end-to-end and PARKED on
an act_runner->gitea action-fetch auth blocker (infra-ops to research, deferred).
Archived the 2026-07-15/16 recent-decisions batch (8 entries) to keep the index
under the soft cap.
Recorded under Tried-and-abandoned: --enable-triton-backend on irv-ml1's
A6000 crashes every render (triton's fp8 dequant needs fp8e4nv/e4m3, which
sm_86 lacks; the global --fp8_e4m3fn-text-enc dequant dies at CLIPTextEncode,
taking fp8 and int8 alike). Reverted cleanly; cu130 rebuild won't fix a
hardware format limit; revisit at the Ada refresh. Also captures the
compose-env-needs-recreate-not-restart mechanics lesson.
The [2026-07-25] nh3-extdev herald-install entry claimed infra-ops was
sudo-less on extdev, explaining the use of the lkraven@ NOPASSWD path.
That parenthetical was wrong: infra-ops has had full NOPASSWD sudo on
extdev since 2026-06-25. Kept the historical action (lkraven@ was used)
and appended a dated correction so a future session self-serves as
infra-ops instead of taking the lkraven@ hop unnecessarily. Surfaced
during the 2026-08-03 herald.py:363 re-nudge-bug arc.
Collapsed the completed-arc bloat out of Current state / in-flight (line 125:
6487->1073 chars; runbooks moved to persistent-memory.d/2026-08-03-worldtree-b168-384-385-arc.md).
Added the 2026-08-03 arc Recent-decisions entry. Auto-archived 20 oldest
Recent-decisions entries (2026-07-08..07-14) to archival-memory.md (index 345->308
lines). Refreshed the b169-deploy watch, unpushed-count, and handoff.
corviduo-dev demo+personal+pinned share one containerd; concurrent pull of b169's
torch layer failed personal mid-race while demo completed. Image 6e34a87 fully
valid (demo running it healthy). Fix = re-run. NEAR-MISS: prune/rmi 6e34a87 would
have downed demo. Lesson: docker ps running images before any prune cleanup.
worldtree-dev closed the watch with git evidence: both round-2 wing commits
landed clean under exec -u 1000; loose-object chown enabled it. Self-healed as
predicted; last thread of the reindex-as-root fallout closed.
os.access(ingestion_root, W_OK) tests only the root dir, so a root-owned job
subdir passes requeue guards + /health both while being unclaimable by uid 1000.
muninn-dev added an ownership column to the post-move check.
muninn-dev tested on coreutils 9.1: mv src failed/ with failed/ missing STILL
silently renames (rc=0) — trailing slash buys nothing. mv -t <dir> <src> refuses
a missing target loudly (rc=1). Adopted as house convention. Also: DCC+P&P rest
in failed/ with manifest=complete until round-2 (requeue keys on dir placement) —
deliberate, don't tidy.
A misplaced ingestion-state move is silent (list_jobs OK, files inert; sole
symptom = job absent from board, job_row->None/404). Verify job is on the board
+ job.dispatch.json survived after any move; don't trust mv exit codes.
worldtree-dev round-2 unblock: mv job complete/->failed/ assumed failed/
existed; it didn't on personal, so mv renamed job1 to 'failed' + nested job2.
Caught + reconstructed via complete/ scratch, no data loss. Lesson: verify dir
exists with [ -d ] before mv-into (empty ls is ambiguous); guard peer fs cmds
with mkdir -p.
worldtree-dev accepted #384 recovery. Wing-git BrokenPipeError ruled a
watch-item (self-heals on DCC round-2 re-run; escalate only if 2-in-a-row).
Recorded a heads-up for a future production delete-by-job_id of 785 April-era
DCC orphans (job_id=b59c147c5ce0, 'main' collection) — to be handled supervised
(backup + scope-confirm + operator-in-loop) after ratatoskr's verify.
worldtree-dev pushed the train (main + tags v1.0.0b168/staging) and verified my
pre-sync matches the commit byte-for-byte. Recorded the next pending op: after
b168 CI-lands on personal, run --reindex of job mimir-6351554e8e8f + #381 restart
on their exact commands.
Synced the boot-gating summarization block + deep-reasoning desc to demo +
personal via deploy-wt-config (health-gated); replied GO. Recorded gotchas:
unpushed-commit fetch falls back to default branch (verify SHA exists), and
paste-sourced YAML needs indent/validate (8-space desc was invalid).
worldtree-dev advance notice: #384/#385 train adds a boot-blocking
'summarization' capability block (vastblueai-gateway/gen) that in-image
muninn/config.yaml references. Must pre-sync into providers.yaml on demo
+ personal via deploy-wt-config BEFORE the image deploy, from the exact
commit. ACKed; recorded as an open watch.
worldtree-dev gave advance notice: standing #381 restart of
worldtree-personal-worldtree-api-1 will be requested when DCC re-ingest
job mimir-6351554e8e8f (fiction wing) goes terminal in a few hours.
ACKed no scheduling constraints; recorded as an open watch so a fresh
session catches the request.
A/B (5 pinned-seed neutral pairs) showed original single-clip seg000
(16.3s) beats the 52s 4-take concat on timbre fidelity — reverted live +
build-source to seg000-alone. Recorded two craft lessons: more reference
audio is not automatically better when takes vary; emotion steering pulls
output away from a cloned voice fast (keep clones emotion-neutral).
Folded the onyx-58 Booth bundle (seg101/seg110/seg148, all Princess Donut
per operator-confirmed misdiarization of seg148) into the Zonos gateway
donut voice reference alongside the original 65-frost seg000. New ref =
52.0s @ 44.1kHz mono s16, deployed to irv-ml1 live bind-mount +
build-source tree; old ref backed up. A/B audition in booth donut-onyx58.
Centered on the resume task: build the infra-ops-owned Worldtree per-deployment
config repo + deploy tooling (operator-directed) with the one-time
worldtree-dev boundary agreement. Also records: The Booth shipped (v0.1.3), the
jackdaw-compose nh3-dev deploy, and the Worldtree #376 arc closed (per-instance
config ruled by-design). Two detail files + the /tmp handoff.
Record the RTXVideoSuperResolution node clone + the nvidia-vfx pip install
(scoped --extra-index-url, uid 1000) in the stacks/comfyui runbook. Flag the
durability split: the node is persistent (basedir/custom_nodes) but nvidia-vfx
lives in the disposable venv (run/), so it must re-run after every fresh
bootstrap. Deliberately not a global PIP_EXTRA_INDEX_URL (torch-pin safety).
Closes the comfy-dev provisioning ticket.
soong-lab: WT-style CI-deploy step live (SSH deploy@corviduo-dev, compose
pull && up -d from /opt/soong-lab, /api/version health-gate). Dir relocated
+ old retired; dedicated soong deploy key; run #5 green (container recreated,
v0.3.25 live). worldtree-sdk 1.0.0 Python published to vh Gitea PyPI +
acceptance-verified.
Deferred-work capture: Vuong approved wiring soong-lab auto-redeploy; operator
deferred execution to a fresh context. Recorded in Recent decisions with the
mechanism (WT-style CI-deploy step), the blocker (a vh-owned deploy SSH-key
secret), and next-session steps; handoff updated to make it the primary task.
The "5 AM clock" report was a hallucination in another window — clock verified
correct (US/Pacific, NTP-synced), no change.
