The seat documentation must stay current, and a hand-written document cannot. The LiteLLM config described char-rp as a 31B model on a host and GPU it had not been on since 2026-08-24 -- three weeks of silent drift in a file that read as authoritative, and the reason a seat spent that period serving a model nobody intended. Anything typed here drifts the same way; anything read off the running containers cannot. scripts/seat-inventory.py derives the whole document from the host: - placement and VRAM from nvidia-smi compute-apps, mapped to containers through /proc/<pid>/cgroup -- nvidia-smi reports the vLLM engine child while docker reports the container pid, so matching them directly silently yields nothing - weights and KV tokens parsed from each engine's own startup log, not derived arithmetically, with concurrency computed as KV tokens over context - architecture, layer and expert counts, and the exact quantization group scheme (W4A4 vs W4A16 distinguished) from each model's config.json - speculative-decoding method and k from the container argv, which is how the three incompatible methods on this box became visible - lineage from the .PROVENANCE.txt SIBLING files -- they sit beside the model directory, not inside it, which is why an earlier pass wrongly reported two fully-documented seats as having no provenance - gateway aliases resolved from the LiteLLM config on ana-docker --check compares the committed document against the live box and exits non-zero when they diverge, ignoring only the generation timestamp. Suitable for CI or a scheduled drift alarm; read-only throughout, safe against production. Also commits the KV_CACHE_BYTES override added to the MTP campaign runner, which asserts the flag exists in the derived argv and aborts rather than running a campaign that silently ignored it.

Navigation map for the documentation tree. New session? Read
orientation.md first — it's the narrative overview
of the fleet, backup architecture, governing principles, and gotchas,
and it points at everything else.

What goes where
runbooks/— step-by-step ops procedures. Anything you'd reach for during an incident or while standing up new infrastructure. Examples: disaster recovery (blast-radius tiers + restoration steps), PBS deployment (9-phase rollout). New runbook → new file here.pfi/— PFI-specific reference material that's too narrow for the top-level CLAUDE.md but doesn't change incident response. AI model inventory, recommended inference settings, Matrix bridge config, Proxmox VM map. New stable reference → new file here.- Top-level (
docs/orientation.md,docs/README.md) — narrative guides about the workspace itself, not about specific infra.

Conventions
- Markdown, GitHub-flavored. CommonMark renders fine in most viewers.
- File names are lowercase-kebab-case, descriptive. No dates in filenames — git history covers that.
- One topic per file. If a file grows past ~500 lines, look for a natural split before adding more.
- No checked-in binaries or checksums. Build/release artifacts belong
in a build pipeline or
tools/, notdocs/.
