Hivemind Maintenance Tasks Epoch 1

[marksverdhei]

Idle-cycle maintenance sprint (per /home/me/IDLE.md — don't hold off; keep active). One active epoch; tick items off and append newly-found work.

• PR triage + squash-merge passing PRs — ✅ merged fix(server): return 400 (not 500) for truncated tool-call args in input (#19) #109, chore: gitignore UI node_modules and .svelte-kit build artifacts #110, docs(pascal): document the containerized sm_61 build for the gems cluster #111. Janitored chore(docs): AGENTS.md webui section reflects post-rewrite reality #95 (→ closed; re-filed as docs: AGENTS.md webui section is stale + self-contradictory post-sync #113).
• CI hygiene (CI audit: 11 self-hosted workflows queue forever on this fork #84) — ✅ forced-A subset landed in ci: strip phantom auto-triggers from self-hosted-only workflows (#84) #115. Lint subset (option-B) deferred (noted in CI audit: 11 self-hosted workflows queue forever on this fork #84).
• DFlash: child worker crashes on first decode (n_outputs_max family) — still broken after upstream sync #108 DFlash first-decode crash — ✅ fix staged as draft PR fix(decode): reserve >= dflash_block_size outputs for DFlash draft contexts (#108) #114; un-draft pending a cluster DFlash smoke. Bug-hunt cross-confirmed the crash is deterministic.
• HPC optimization (IDLE.md clause) — blocked on hardware: the only GPU I can reach (centurion) is a production fleet node, so a multi-GB / multi-min benchmark would disrupt live serving. Needs a dedicated bench box. The known high-value target (GQA-packed quantized-KV FA kernel, ~4× headroom on the MQA deployment shape — see PR perf: D=512 quantized-KV FA vec kernels (gated gqa_ratio<=4) + server logprobs partial-sort #102 history) is a focused CUDA-kernel project, not a safe idle-cycle self-merge.
• Bug hunt — ✅ DFlash multi-seq path: NOT a bug (guarded by --parallel 1). Responses API: misleading error on context overflow, must communicate token limit exceeded #19 Part-1 status:incomplete: already tested (test_responses_truncation_emits_incomplete_status).

Newly found this epoch

• docs: AGENTS.md webui section is stale + self-contradictory post-sync #113 — AGENTS.md webui section stale/self-contradictory post-sync (needs webui-owner intent)
• CI audit: 11 self-hosted workflows queue forever on this fork #84 lint subset — python-lint already on ubuntu-latest; 6 remaining need per-tool VERIFY-then-convert (blind conversion risks adding failing checks) — see CI audit: 11 self-hosted workflows queue forever on this fork #84 comment

Done this epoch (janitor)

• Rebase conflict: ht on master (2026-06-06) #92 — stale sync-conflict (2026-06-06) → closed (files gone post-sync; fork-sync green daily)

Saved for later / needs input or dedicated hardware

• HPC optimization — needs a dedicated (non-production) bench box + focused session
• branch hygiene: 12 stale remote branches (3 merged-undeleted, 6 closed-rejected, 3 PR-less) #90 stale branches — bulk deletion is surface-don't-act (risk of clobbering a live agent's WIP)
• Fold gem pool-peer into committed llm-pool.yaml (cloud repo; Markus WIP)

Epoch update (2026-06-16):

• docs: AGENTS.md webui section is stale + self-contradictory post-sync #113 AGENTS.md webui reconciliation → PR docs(agents): reconcile webui section with tracked repo state #128 opened (docs-only, safe to squash-merge)
• Rebase conflict: ht on master (2026-06-14) #116 stale sync-conflict → closed (expected fork-sync auto-rebase failure, not actionable outside manual sync)
• CI audit: 11 self-hosted workflows queue forever on this fork #84 lint subset verify-then-convert → auditing remaining phantom workflows now
• DFlash: child worker crashes on first decode (n_outputs_max family) — still broken after upstream sync #108 + fix(decode): reserve >= dflash_block_size outputs for DFlash draft contexts (#108) #114 confirmed closed (DFlash fix landed via fix: clamp n_outputs_max for DFlash models #121)

Epoch update (2026-06-16, cont):

• CI audit: 11 self-hosted workflows queue forever on this fork #84 lint subset — PR ci: convert 4 phantom lint workflows to ubuntu-latest + fix editorconfig violations #129 squash-merged. 4 of 6 phantom lint workflows converted to ubuntu-latest:
  • editorconfig.yml ✅ (+ fixed 14 trailing whitespace violations)
  • code-style.yml ✅ (130 model naming mappings validated)
  • check-vendor.yml ✅ (vendor sync clean)
  • python-type-check.yml ✅ (ty exits 0)
  • Also added ht to branch triggers on editorconfig/code-style/check-vendor

Still phantom (2 remaining):

• python-check-requirements — needs ~2.7GB IO for local verify
• pre-tokenizer-hashes — needs HF network access for verify
