Retire qwen35-vl (Qwen3.5-9B); add qwen36-vl serving the official FP8 Qwen3.6-35B-A3B vision MoE on :8007 under its TRUE name only — no alias. qwen3.5-9b-fp8 is killed at vLLM AND the litellm gateway (404/400); a model is never served under a prior model's name. Consumer (comfy-dev/arbo) notified + migrated; arbo vkeys flipped to all-proxy-models; shared all-agents-local key repointed to qwen3.6-35b-a3b. GPU-1 rebalance for the heavier FP8 weights (~34 GB): granite 0.35->0.24 / 131K->64K, embed/rerank 0.05->0.03 (reclaimed util-reservation waste). Verified: vision correct, 20-concurrent/endpoint load test = no OOM (~7.5 GB headroom). Drop the llama-swap qwen3.5-9b GPU-0 pin (GPU 0 freed for the creative-writing hot-swap card). NVFP4 was the lighter fit (~21 GB) but its vLLM ModelOpt-MoE loader is broken (KeyError w2_input_scale / lm_head.input_scale, vllm #44081); revisit when fixed.
llama-swap
GGUF model server with on-demand model swapping. Served via llama.cpp's llama-server under the llama-swap proxy.
Server: ana-ml2
Port: 9292 (configurable via .env)
GPU: both (unpinned — runtime: nvidia grants access to all devices; per-model GPU selection happens inside config.yaml)
Files
compose.yaml— canonical compose. Deployed to/opt/docker/compose/llama-swap/compose.yamlon ana-ml2..env.example— template for the per-host.env. Copy to.envon the server and tweak.config.yaml— model definitions and groups. Deployed to/opt/docker/conf/llama-swap/config.yamlon the server.
Homepage labels are in the compose file under the AI Systems group, matching the convention used by vllm and infinity.

Model reference conventions
- Modern entries: use
-hf <user>/<repo>[:<quant>]— reads from the shared HF cache, nothing to pre-stage outsidehf download - Legacy entries: use
--model /models/<dir>/<file>.gguf— reads GGUFs from/tank/aimodels/llm/(pre-HF-cache era, gradually being migrated)
New models should prefer the -hf pattern.
