Stage 1 identity (#49): cortex now knows who a request is for. Identity
rides standard bearer auth only (Authorization: Bearer <key>) — no custom
required headers or body fields — which is what keeps every tier
OpenAI-compatible by construction.

- cortex-gateway::auth: `require_principal` axum middleware
  (from_fn_with_state), wired in build_app outer-to-inner as
  trace → CORS → auth → handlers (CORS outer so preflight short-circuits).
  It resolves the bearer key via the EntitlementProvider, inserts the
  typed Principal into request extensions (for metering #51 / enforcement
  #52), and stamps internal x-helexa-account-id / x-helexa-key-id headers
  so the principal reaches neuron, which trusts cortex over WireGuard (#54).
- Anti-spoofing: client-supplied principal headers are stripped before the
  authoritative value is stamped — a client can never assert a principal
  it didn't authenticate as.
- Rejection contract (#63): missing key under require_auth, or any present
  but unresolvable key, → 401 invalid_api_key in the #60 envelope. /health
  and / stay public. require_auth=false (default) allows anonymous through
  but still 401s a present-but-invalid key.
- Header-name constants (HEADER_ACCOUNT_ID/KEY_ID) live in cortex-core so
  neuron (#54) shares them. The chat/completions/responses paths forward
  the stamped headers automatically via proxy::forward_request; the
  Anthropic streaming + non-streaming paths forward them explicitly via
  auth::forward_principal_headers (they build their own upstream requests).

5 integration tests: missing-key 401, invalid-key 401 (even when auth not
required, not dispatched), valid key reaches neuron with principal headers
+ spoofed header stripped, anonymous allowed when not required, /health
public. Local fmt/clippy/test all green.

Stage 1's build seam (#50): the interface auth, metering, and budget
enforcement all hang off, with a local/static provider so the A0
amplification fix can land before any upstream clearing house exists.
The future helexa-upstream client (#57) is just another impl.

- cortex-core::entitlements: Principal {account_id, key_id}, CapWindow
  (Balance | Rolling{seconds}), Reservation handle, BudgetSnapshot,
  AuthError/BudgetError, and the async EntitlementProvider trait
  (resolve / reserve / settle / release / snapshot). BudgetError carries
  the window semantics so callers pick the #63 code (rate_limit_exceeded
  + Retry-After vs insufficient_quota) without the provider touching HTTP.
- cortex-core::config: [entitlements] section on GatewayConfig
  (require_auth + [[entitlements.keys]] with account_id, optional key_id,
  hard_cap, window). Additive + serde(default) — anonymous/uncapped when
  omitted, so existing setups are unaffected.
- cortex-gateway::entitlements_local: LocalEntitlementProvider. Budget
  math serialized under one Mutex so spent+reserved can never exceed a
  hard cap under concurrency (the #52 guarantee); rolling windows reset
  lazily; uncapped keys (no hard_cap) always reserve but still meter.
- CortexState gains Arc<dyn EntitlementProvider> + require_auth, built in
  from_config. Not yet consumed by the request path — auth middleware is
  1b (#49), enforcement is 1d (#52).
- cortex.example.toml documents the section; test GatewayConfig literals
  updated for the new field.

6 provider unit tests (resolve, unknown-key, round-trip, balance/rolling
over-cap codes, uncapped infra key). Local fmt/clippy/test all green.

The rejection contract (#63) requires every "no" path to speak the
OpenAI envelope with standard codes and, for retryable conditions, a
Retry-After header. Two gaps remained despite #63 being closed:
Retry-After was implemented nowhere, and the envelope was hand-built
inline in four places (gateway handlers/proxy/router, neuron api) with
no shared source of truth — exactly the inconsistency #63 set out to
prevent, and a foundation every Stage 1-2 rejection (401/429/503) needs.

- cortex-core: new `error_envelope::OpenAiError` — an axum-agnostic
  builder carrying status, type, code, message, param, optional
  retry_after, and diagnostic extras. Named constructors encode the #63
  codes (invalid_api_key, rate_limit_exceeded, insufficient_quota,
  context_length_exceeded, service_unavailable) and which carry
  Retry-After. cortex-core stays a pure types crate; each HTTP crate
  owns a thin `envelope_response` adapter that sets the header.
- cortex-gateway: route error_response, ProxyError, and RouteError
  through the shared builder; RouteError::retry_after_secs wires
  Retry-After on the transient NoHealthyNodes (5s) / ModelRecovering
  (2s) variants.
- neuron: route inference_error_response through the shared builder;
  InsufficientVram (transient 503) now advertises Retry-After: 5.

Behaviour for existing paths is unchanged (same status/type/code/extras);
only the new Retry-After headers are added. Tests cover the builder wire
shape and Retry-After presence/absence on both sides.

The request path now rejects prompts above the model's self-derived input
budget, not the static NEURON_MAX_PROMPT_TOKENS — so a VRAM-tight host
(where the VRAM ceiling binds below the static cap) rejects an
over-budget prompt up front instead of accepting it and OOMing
mid-prefill.

- derived_input_cap: AtomicUsize on LoadedModel + TpLoadedModel; refreshed
  by LoadedHandle::derived_limit (runs on every /models poll). 0 = not
  derived yet.
- effective_prompt_cap(): cached derived input when >0, else the static
  max_prompt_tokens() (cold-start / no-profile fallback).
- validate_request takes the cap as a param; all 4 call sites
  (chat_completion, inference_stream, inference_tp_stream, TP
  chat_completion) pass the in-scope model's effective_prompt_cap().
- doc/context-limits.md: enforcement note updated from "remaining" to
  landed.

Reads the cap lock-free from the sync validate path (no per-request VRAM
query); the cap tracks live state via the poll-driven derivation. With
this, advertise and enforce agree and both track the resident model.

Demotes the static per-host prompt cap from authority to an optional
upper-bound clamp on the self-derived limit, and rewrites the
context-limits doc around the computed model.

- max_prompt_tokens_clamp(): reads NEURON_MAX_PROMPT_TOKENS directly so
  "explicitly set" is distinct from the 16384 default; returns None when
  unset (no clamp). Applied as derive_limit's hard_ceiling in
  LoadedHandle::derived_limit, so the advertised context is clamped only
  when an operator set a backstop — the derivation is otherwise
  authoritative and binds below it in practice.
- doc/context-limits.md: intro + "After #62" rewritten as "After #67 —
  the neuron computes its own limit" (formula, live signals, config
  block, opencode note, NEURON_MAX_PROMPT_TOKENS demotion).

Remaining (phase 5b, follow-up): enforce the *derived* input as the
prompt cap (reject above computed input, not the static
NEURON_MAX_PROMPT_TOKENS) so VRAM-tight hosts can't accept an
OOM-inducing prompt. Needs a per-model cached cap read from the sync
validate path; scoped separately. Until then the static cap remains the
enforced backstop (advertised <= enforced holds when the env is set).

fmt/clippy/test green.

The neuron now self-derives and advertises limit{context,input,output}
per loaded model; cortex forwards it and stops consulting the
operator-declared catalogue limit (which can't track hot-swapped models
or live capacity). Operator-set `cost` still flows from the catalogue.

neuron:
- CandleHarness gains context_limit_cfg (from [harness.candle.context_limit]).
- LoadedHandle::derived_limit(): profile + live tightest-card free VRAM
  (single: query_vram; TP: query_vram_tightest_free_mb) + prefill-rate
  EMA (bootstrap until first sample) → derive_limit. None for arches
  without a context profile. No operator clamp here (advertise the honest
  derived value; the clamp is an enforcement-side backstop).
- list_models() fills ModelInfo.limit from derived_limit (was None).
- derive_limit treats free_tightest_mb == 0 (unknown/CPU sentinel) as
  "no VRAM ceiling" instead of collapsing to zero.

cortex:
- ModelEntry gains `limit`, copied from ModelInfo.limit by the poller.
- /v1/models: catalogue `limit` no longer flows (Pass 1 sets None);
  Pass 2 adopts the neuron's limit, taking the tightest across neurons
  via tightest_limit(). cost unchanged.
- model_limits.rs rewritten: catalogue limit (999999) is ignored; the
  neuron's ModelEntry.limit is advertised; cost still from catalogue.
- All ModelEntry literals updated with the new field.

Refs #67. Feeds the throughput ceiling a live, per-model prefill rate
instead of only the configured bootstrap estimate, so the advertised
limit tracks real prefill speed and rises automatically as prefix
caching (#11) reduces effective prefill cost.

- context_limit::PrefillRateEma: lock-free f64-bits EMA (alpha 0.3),
  ignores degenerate samples, None before the first sample. Unit-tested.
- prefill_rate field on LoadedModel + TpLoadedModel.
- Recorded as total-prompt-tokens / prefill-elapsed in the two streaming
  serving paths (TP: inference_tp_stream via tp_for_task; single-GPU:
  stream_inference_via_worker via a new &prefill_rate param threaded from
  loaded_for_task). Measuring total prompt (not just the divergent
  suffix) means a prefix-cache hit shrinks elapsed while the prompt stays
  large, so the effective rate — and the ceiling — rises toward the VRAM
  ceiling, exactly the #11 payoff.

Per the agreed scope, non-streaming + CPU paths fall back to the
bootstrap estimate (opencode streams; those paths rarely carry the
fleet). fmt/clippy/test green; CUDA paths type-checked in CI.

Refs #67. Captures the per-model context physics at load and adds the
live free-VRAM signal the derivation needs — the tightest card across TP
ranks, not just the leader.

- ContextProfile captured at load:
  - single-GPU dense CUDA path (world_size 1) via
    context_limit::profile_from_qwen3_5_config(config_path, ..);
  - TP path (world_size = tp_size) at TpLoadedModel construction.
  GGUF/CPU/non-qwen3_5 → None (fall back to the static prompt cap).
  New `context_profile` field on LoadedModel + TpLoadedModel.
- profile_from_qwen3_5_config(): reads config.json (mirrors
  VisionMeta::from_config_path), counts full_attention layers
  (layer_types authoritative, full_attention_interval fallback), builds
  the per-card KV cost via the shared helper.
- Folded the inline per-rank KV-bytes math in tp_qwen3.rs (both
  cuda/non-cuda log_construction_complete) and tp_qwen3_5.rs onto
  context_limit::kv_bytes_per_token + KV_CACHE_DTYPE_BYTES.
- Per-rank VRAM fan-out (tightest card):
  - WorkerRequest::QueryVram + WorkerResponse::VramInfo { free_mb, total_mb };
  - worker.rs handle_query_vram (cuda: mem_get_info; non-cuda: error);
  - WorkerPool::query_vram_tightest_free_mb fans out to every rank
    (leader via its device worker, subprocess ranks via RPC) → min free;
  - TpLoadedModel::query_vram_tightest_free_mb convenience wrapper.

No advertise/enforce yet (phases 4/5). fmt/clippy/test green; CUDA paths

Refs #67. The correct limit{context,input,output} for a deployment is a
computed function of model architecture + live free VRAM + a
coherence/throughput trade-off, not an operator-declared static fact that
goes stale on model swap. This lands the arch-agnostic derivation core;
later phases capture per-model physics at load, measure throughput, and
advertise/enforce the computed limit.

- crates/neuron/src/harness/context_limit.rs (new):
  - kv_bytes_per_token(): shared per-card KV cost (counts only
    full-attention layers; sharded by TP world size). The TP load paths'
    inline math folds onto this in phase 2.
  - ContextProfile: per-model physics snapshot (max_position_embeddings,
    kv_bytes_per_token_per_card, world_size).
  - derive_limit(): context = min(max_pos, vram_ceiling,
    throughput_ceiling) clamped by an optional backstop; input = context −
    output; rounded to 1024. 6 unit tests.
- config.rs: [harness.candle.context_limit] block (mirrors prefix_cache):
  target_prefill_latency_secs, bootstrap_prefill_tok_per_sec,
  activation_headroom_mb, min_free_floor_mb, output_reserve_tokens.
- neuron.example.toml: documented the new block.

No runtime behaviour change yet. fmt/clippy/test green.

Closes #64.

opencode meters reasoning tokens separately via the OpenAI-standard
detail objects, which neuron's usage structs didn't expose. Add them
additively so older clients ignore them.

- cortex-core: Usage gains completion_tokens_details/prompt_tokens_details;
  ResponsesUsage gains output_tokens_details/input_tokens_details. Optional
  + skip_serializing_if, so the wire shape is unchanged for non-reasoning
  models. cached_tokens fields are defined but always None until prompt
  caching lands (#11).
- candle.rs: count tokens generated while in_reasoning across all three
  streaming paths (TP, worker, CPU); carry the count on InferenceEvent::Finish.
- chat projector: populate completion_tokens_details.reasoning_tokens.
- responses projector: wire up base usage emission on the streaming path
  (it emitted none before) and add output_tokens_details.reasoning_tokens.
- non-streaming paths leave details None (they don't track in_reasoning).

reasoning_tokens is a sub-count of completion/output tokens (OpenAI
semantics) — not added into total_tokens.

cortex resolved the catalogue path "models.toml" relative to the service's
working directory, so the systemd-launched binary never found
/etc/cortex/models.toml and ran with an EMPTY catalogue in production —
limits, cost, pinning, aliases and feasibility were all silent no-ops,
with models surfacing only via the neuron poller. Tests never caught it
because they pass models_config explicitly; only the defaulted,
packaged path was broken.

Default to the absolute /etc/cortex/models.toml (where cortex.spec installs
it) and document the override in cortex.example.toml. Restores the #62
limit/cost advertisement (the catalogue is now actually read) along with
pinning/aliases/feasibility.

Resolves #62. opencode's helexa provider discovers a model's serving
budget from /v1/models and uses it to size context, trigger compaction,
and show spend with no hand-configuration. Each model entry now carries:

  - limit { context, input?, output }  — operator-declared in models.toml
  - cost  { input, output, cache_read?, cache_write? }  — USD per 1M tokens
  - tool_call / reasoning  — runtime-detected by the candle harness and
    OR-ed in from each serving neuron

Composition: the catalogue profile supplies limit/cost (Pass 1); the
poller carries the neuron's detected tool_call/reasoning into ModelEntry,
which the gateway unions onto the entry (Pass 2); aliases propagate every
field (Pass 4). Wire types extend ModelInfo / ModelProfile /
CortexModelEntry additively (serde default + skip_serializing_if), so
older neurons and clients are unaffected. helexa-bench's ModelInfo
constructor and the gateway test fixtures are updated for the new fields.
Adds tests/model_limits.rs asserting /v1/models surfaces limit + cost
(catalogue) and tool_call + reasoning (runtime), and that max_model_len
is gone.

Removes max_model_len. It was write-only with no consumer — opencode's
source references it nowhere and it is not an OpenAI /v1/models field —
and doubly misleading: vLLM's max_model_len means total sequence length,
but cortex populated it from NEURON_MAX_PROMPT_TOKENS, a prompt-only cap.
The limit{} contract replaces it. The neuron's max_prompt_tokens remains
the enforced prompt cap (neuron-side); cortex just stops re-advertising a
derived, mis-named copy. Closes #66 — its stale-max_model_len premise is
moot once the field is gone.

limit/cost are operator-declared (catalogue) per #62's design; auto-
deriving the advertised budget from each neuron's reported cap is a
tracked follow-up.

Roll the per-model context cap into deploy.yml so it is deterministic per
host and rolled out (with a restart) alongside the rest of the service
config, rather than hand-edited in local.conf. The deploy now writes
/etc/systemd/system/neuron.service.d/model.conf from a new per-host
`max_prompt_tokens` matrix field, and restarts a neuron when the package
OR the drop-in changes — so a cap change applies even with no new RPM.

Standardize error messages by adding type, code, and param fields to
align with OpenAI API format. Updates include:
- Structured error envelopes with broad type categorization
  (invalid_request_error/api_error)
- Specific machine-readable codes (model_not_found/service_unavailable)
- Null param field as required by OpenAI specification
- Consistent error response formatting across handlers, proxy, and
  routing layers

New tests verify correct error envelope structure for various failure
scenarios.

InferenceError responses were a flat `{"error": "..."}` string. OpenAI
clients (opencode, the openai SDK) reach into `error.type`/`error.code`
to drive behaviour — most importantly `code == "context_length_exceeded"`
triggers auto-compaction + retry instead of a hard failure. A flat string
is invisible to that logic.

Rewrite `inference_error_response` to emit the nested envelope
`{"error": {"message","type","code","param", ...diagnostics}}` and map:

- ModelNotLoaded   → 404 invalid_request_error / model_not_found
- PromptTooLong    → 400 invalid_request_error / context_length_exceeded
  (message: "maximum context length is N tokens", + prompt_len/max)
- InsufficientVram → 503 api_error / insufficient_vram
- VisionUnsupported→ 400 invalid_request_error / vision_unsupported
- TemplateRenderFailed → 422 invalid_request_error / template_render_failed
- Other            → 500 api_error / null code

Diagnostic extras ride inside the error object so the envelope shape is
stable. Both inline match blocks in the chat-completions handler
(streaming + non-streaming) now defer to the shared helper, which the
responses handler already used — one source of truth.

Adds 4 unit tests covering the envelope shape and codes. Also fixes a
pre-existing clippy lint (cloned_ref_to_slice_refs) in qwen3_5 snapshot
test surfaced by a newer clippy.

The deeper reason opencode showed "Context: 0 tokens / 0% used" and flew
into a 400: streaming responses carried NO `usage`. Clients track context
(and trigger compaction) from the `usage` field; the legacy candle
streaming path set `usage: None` on every chunk, so a streaming client
had no token count at all — `max_model_len` alone is a denominator with
no numerator.

InferenceEvent::Finish now carries prompt_tokens + completion_tokens
(the streaming loops already have both: prompt_tokens.len() and the
generated all_tokens.len()). The openai_chat projector emits an
OpenAI-style trailing usage chunk (empty `choices`, populated `usage`)
after the finish chunk. cortex's Anthropic stream translator already
reads chunk.usage, so this fixes context tracking on BOTH the OpenAI
(opencode) and Anthropic (Claude Code) paths.

Also harden the max_model_len plumbing's sibling: cortex re-polls
/discovery while a neuron's max_prompt_tokens is still 0 (unknown), so a
rolling-deploy race where cortex caches discovery before the neuron has
the field self-heals instead of pinning max_model_len to None until a
manual cortex restart.

opencode (and any OpenAI/Anthropic client) couldn't size or compact its
context against helexa because /v1/models never advertised a context
window — opencode showed "0 tokens / 0% used" and flew straight into a
400 PromptTooLong once a conversation + a fetched 64KB log overflowed the
49152-token cap. Compaction is the client's job, but the client needs to
know the limit to do it.

neuron now reports its effective prompt cap (NEURON_MAX_PROMPT_TOKENS)
in GET /discovery (`max_prompt_tokens`). cortex surfaces it on
/v1/models as `max_model_len` (vLLM / OpenAI-compatible convention) per
model — the smallest cap among the neurons that can serve it
(feasible_on ∪ locations), so the advertised limit holds wherever the
request routes. A neuron reporting 0 predates the field and is treated
as unknown (skipped); models with no reporting neuron omit the field.

helexa still rejects over-limit prompts with a clean 400 — this just
gives clients the number to compact *before* hitting it.

opencode (OpenAI path, /v1/chat/completions passthrough) hit the same
chat_template:120 failure Claude Code did — "cannot convert value into
pairs" — because the OpenAI wire format carries
tool_calls[].function.arguments as a JSON *string*, while Qwen3.6's
template iterates it as a dict (`arguments | items`). The Anthropic-side
fix (8880b2f) only covered cortex's translation; the OpenAI path reaches
neuron unchanged.

render_chat_template now normalizes string-form tool-call arguments to
objects across all messages before building the Jinja context, so OpenAI
and Anthropic clients both render. Object args (Anthropic path) pass
through untouched; a string that doesn't parse is left as-is and the
render fails loudly (422 TemplateRenderFailed, a94dd55) rather than
silently dropping tools.

The loud-fail change earned out immediately here: opencode got a clean
422 with the exact `chat_template:120` cause instead of a degraded
session.

Three of this session's bugs (system-message position, tool_call argument
shape, and the original tool rendering) all hid behind the same silent
behaviour: chat_template render fails → neuron falls back to
format_qwen3_prompt, which drops every tool → the request still returns
200 with degraded, tool-less output. Each cost real debugging time
because the failure was invisible on the wire.

build_prompt_for_request now returns Result. On a render failure it
checks whether the request carried tools: if so it returns the new
InferenceError::TemplateRenderFailed (mapped to 422 with a
template_render_failed code and the underlying Jinja error), instead of
silently degrading. A render failure with no tools still falls back
quietly — there's nothing to lose, and `format_qwen3_prompt` is a
reasonable text-only prompt. The four prompt-build call sites propagate
with `?`.

Now the next client/template incompatibility surfaces as a loud 422 the
operator sees immediately, not a mysteriously-degraded session.

Verified live via the rendered-prompt trace: once a tool call is in the
conversation history, the Qwen3.6 chat template fails to render —

  render chat_template: invalid operation: cannot convert value into
  pairs (in chat_template:120)

because line 120 iterates `tool_call.arguments | items` (treats arguments
as a dict), while cortex emitted the OpenAI-standard JSON *string*. On
that render error neuron silently falls back to a tool-less prompt, so
the model loses every tool the moment it makes one call — it can make the
first tool call, read the result, then can only narrate ("now let me
check the runs") and stop, because the next turn has no tools. That's the
"drops the ball a little later" symptom: the CC trace shows the get_me
turn rendering 42653 tokens (tools present) and every subsequent
tool-history turn falling back to ~6k tokens (tools gone).

anthropic_to_openai now passes `function.arguments` as the parsed object
rather than stringifying it. Tests updated to expect the object form.

This is the same silent-fallback failure class as the system-message
merge (295b10c) — which is why making neuron's template-render fallback
LOUD (4xx on a tools-bearing request instead of a degraded 200) is now
clearly worth doing: it would have surfaced both in seconds.

Verified live: Qwen/Qwen3.6-27B with a simple prompt and max_tokens=400
generated 400 tokens, finish_reason=length, and 0 visible characters —
the model spent the ENTIRE budget on <think> reasoning, which we then
drop for OpenAI/Anthropic clients (include_thinking=false), starving the
visible answer. This is why Claude Code "dropped the ball": empty or
truncated responses. A/B confirms the cause — same prompt with
chat_template_kwargs.enable_thinking=false yields a full 545-char answer.

The earlier prompt_opens_reasoning fix stopped the reasoning *leaking* as
text but left it consuming the token budget. Couple the two: when the
caller isn't going to see the reasoning (include_thinking=false, the
default), default chat_template_kwargs.enable_thinking to false so the
model doesn't generate it. An explicit client enable_thinking wins;
thinking-aware clients (helexa-acp, x-include-thinking: true) keep
reasoning on. Tests cover the default (false), surfacing (true), explicit
override, and preservation of other kwargs.

Note: only the /v1/chat/completions path (what Claude Code uses via
cortex /v1/messages); /v1/responses could get the same defaulting as a
follow-up.

Verified live via neuron trace: Claude Code's real requests carry a
top-level `system` AND a `role:"system"` turn inside `messages`. cortex
passed the latter through at a non-first position, and Qwen3.6's chat
template hard-rejects it:

  WARN chat_template render failed; falling back to format_qwen3_prompt
  error=... invalid operation: System message must be at the beginning.

On that render error neuron silently falls back to a template that
renders NO tools, so the model got zero tool-format guidance and
improvised an unparseable `<tool><name>…` syntax — tool calling broke
entirely for real CC traffic, even though synthetic single-system
probes (and the earlier translation/parse fixes) worked.

anthropic_to_openai now accumulates the top-level `system` plus every
`role:"system"` conversation turn and emits a single system message at
index 0, with the non-system turns following in order. Reproduced the
trigger (system-role message at index>0 → fallback) and the fix
(merged → template renders tools). Test covers the merge + ordering.

Secondary hardening worth a follow-up: neuron's silent template
fallback drops tools without surfacing it to the client — a render
failure on a tools-bearing request should arguably 4xx rather than
degrade invisibly.

Debugging tool-call format drift (Qwen3.6-27B emitting wrapper-less
<tool><name>…> under Claude Code's real system prompt + 120-tool list,
which neuron's <tool_call> detector can't parse) needs ground truth on
what the model actually sees. neuron logged nothing about the rendered
prompt. Add a trace! in build_prompt_for_request emitting the full
rendered prompt + char count + tool count, so we can see whether the
chat template's <tool_call> format instruction survives a large system
prompt and how the tools render. Gated at trace (the prompt can be tens
of KB): RUST_LOG=neuron::harness::candle=trace.

A neuron-blackwell build hung ~90 min (siblings finished in 2) and there
was no job timeout to kill it, so it sat burning a runner. Root cause of
the hang: the inline retry loop treated every failure identically and, on
its final attempt, rebuilt with sccache disabled. When the real failure
is a rustc SIGSEGV or an OOM-kill, an uncached rebuild does *more* work
under the same memory pressure — turning one transient compiler crash
into a wedged job.

Two fixes:

1. timeout-minutes on every job in build-prerelease.yml and ci.yml
   (builds 25, neuron CUDA build/cuda-check 35, packaging 20, COPR 60,
   fast jobs 10-15). A hang now dies in minutes, not hours.

2. New script/ci-cargo-escalate.sh replaces the five (prerelease) + three
   (ci) inline escalation loops. It classifies the failure:
     - signal death (exit >=128, or cargo reporting `signal: N`/SIGSEGV/
       SIGKILL) → compiler crash, NOT an sccache fault: keep the cache,
       one warm retry, then fail fast. Never escalate to uncached.
     - sccache fault (recognisable sccache error) → restart the server,
       retry, then one final uncached attempt.
     - deterministic compile/test error → fail fast (no wasteful retry).
   It also folds in the CUDA-image sccache probe the neuron/cuda-check
   jobs did inline. Classification verified locally against success,
   plain failure, exit-139, and the cargo-wrapped `signal: 11` form.

Qwen3.6's chat template injects the opening <think> into the generation
prompt, so generation begins mid-thought and the open marker is never
sampled. The streaming loops flipped in_reasoning to true only on a
*generated* open token, so they stayed in text mode and streamed the
model's reasoning out as visible text — verified live: a tool request
returned a 255-char text block of chain-of-thought ("The user wants to
know the weather… I will construct the function call now.") ahead of the
tool_use block, with the trailing </think> stripped (close token
recognised) but no opening <think>.

Each streaming loop now seeds in_reasoning by replaying the prompt's
reasoning markers (new `prompt_opens_reasoning`): if the prompt ends
inside an open <think>, the loop starts in reasoning mode, the thinking
routes to ReasoningDelta (dropped by the chat projector's default
include_thinking=false, which is what cortex uses), and the model's
</think> flips back to visible text for the answer/tool call. Template-
agnostic and self-correcting: a prompt that doesn't open reasoning (no
think injection, enable_thinking off, non-reasoning model) starts false,
preserving current behaviour. Thinking is hidden, not disabled, so answer
quality is unaffected.

Applied to all three streaming loops (inference_tp_stream,
stream_inference_via_worker, run_inference_streaming). Test covers
open/close replay, multi-turn closed state, reopen-at-tail, and the
no-pair pass-through.

Verified live (commit d662fa2 logs): cortex now delivers OpenAI-shaped
tools to neuron correctly, but Qwen3.6-27B emits tool calls in the
Qwen-XML form inside the <tool_call> markers —

    <tool_call>
    <function=get_weather>
    <parameter=city>
    Brno
    </parameter>
    </function>
    </tool_call>

— while parse_tool_call_body only did serde_json::from_str expecting
{"name":…,"arguments":…}. It returned None, the dispatch re-emitted the
raw block as a text delta, and clients saw the markup as prose. cortex
logged upstream_tool_calls=false finish_reason="stop".

parse_tool_call_body is now format-tolerant: JSON first (Qwen3-Instruct
/ Hermes), then a Qwen-XML parser (Qwen3-Coder / Qwen3.6). Each
<parameter> value is coerced to its declared JSON type using a new
ToolSchemas map built from the request's tools (string stays string,
integer/number/boolean/object/array coerced, mistyped values fall back
to string so an argument is never dropped). build_tool_schemas is
threaded into all three streaming loops (inference_tp_stream,
stream_inference_via_worker, run_inference_streaming).

Each loop also tracks emitted_tool_call and promotes the terminal
finish_reason from Stop to ToolCalls when a call parsed, so the OpenAI
chunk carries finish_reason:"tool_calls" and cortex maps it to Anthropic
stop_reason:"tool_use" — without which an Anthropic agent (Claude Code)
sees a tool_use block but stop_reason:end_turn and may not run the tool.
FinishReason::ToolCalls drops its dead_code allow.

Tests: JSON form still parses; Qwen-XML multi-param parse with
schema-driven string/integer/boolean coercion; no-schema type sniffing;
type-mismatch string fallback; unparseable body returns None.

Known gap (separate): the non-streaming run_inference paths have no
tool-call handling at all; Claude Code streams, so the streaming loops
are the ones that matter here.

Claude Code (ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL -> cortex) hits POST /v1/messages, but
anthropic_to_openai forwarded the request's `tools` array verbatim via
the flattened `extra`. neuron feeds that straight into the HF chat
template, which iterates the OpenAI shape (tool.function.name/.parameters).
Anthropic-shaped tools ({name, description, input_schema}) rendered as
broken/empty definitions, the model improvised an unparseable
<tool_use_name>...</tool_use_name> tool-call format, neuron's
<tool_call>{json}</tool_call> detector missed it, and the markup fell
through as plain assistant text — so CC never received a structured
tool_use and the agent loop died.

Request-side translation now reshapes:
- tool definitions: {name, description, input_schema}
  -> {type:"function", function:{name, description, parameters}}
- tool_choice: auto->"auto", any->"required", none->"none",
  tool->{type:"function",function:{name}}
- assistant tool_use blocks -> OpenAI assistant.tool_calls
  (arguments JSON-stringified) — fixes multi-turn
- user tool_result blocks -> standalone role:"tool" messages keyed by
  tool_call_id
- system content blocks flatten to text instead of being JSON-serialised
  into the prompt; best-effort image-block -> image_url part

Wire-debug instrumentation (tracing levels only; cortex/neuron ship at
info, operator infra runs at debug):
- every handler emits a debug! "inbound request" line tagging the wire
  surface (anthropic | openai-chat | openai-responses | openai-completions)
  plus model/stream/tools and, for Anthropic, tool_history/system
- response side reports upstream_tool_calls + finish_reason, streaming
  and non-streaming
- full inbound + translated-upstream bodies at trace! (UTF-8-safe, capped)

Tests: 8 request-side unit tests + an end-to-end gateway test asserting
the upstream neuron receives OpenAI-shaped tools and a
user->assistant(+tool_calls)->tool->user history.

Also tighten script/infra-log-verbosity.sh: independent cortex/neuron
RUST_LOG args, cortex-only by default (neuron restart behind
--with-neuron so we don't needlessly cold-reload models), mkdir -p the
drop-in dir, symmetric RUST_LOG cleanup, and set -euo pipefail.

Public visitors don't know the hostnames, so surface each host's GPU(s)
as the resource name across the UI.

- store: gpu_label() turns the stored gpus_json into a compact label
  ("2× RTX 5090", "RTX 4090"); add `gpu` to ReportRow + RunRow and
  `host_gpus`/`model_gpus` maps to /api/dimensions (from each one's
  latest run). render_json gains gpu too.
- UI: Overview + Runs show a "GPU" column (gpu, fallback host); Runs'
  filter is now GPU-labelled (still filters by host underneath); Trends
  shows a "Measured on <gpu>" line for the selected model.

Public visitors don't know the hostnames or per-host hardware, so the
host picker on Trends was confusing. Select by model + scenario only;
/api/series now takes host as optional and resolves it to the host
serving that (model, scenario) — coherent since each model maps to one
host today. Runs (drill-down) keeps its host filter.

Add a dashed vertical ReferenceLine at the first live build (labelled

measurement-regime change, not missing data. The two series stay
unconnected by design (different regimes, not directly comparable).

Option C: a curated static baseline (bench/src/baseline.ts), transcribed
from doc/benchmarks.md (8f6f1d3 + a1952a4 post-#11), overlaid on the
Trends charts as a dashed, clearly-labelled historical series ahead of
the bench era. Host inferred from model via the doc's fleet table;
ordered by snapshot time so it anchors the timeline.

Kept deliberately separate from the live series (no DB/API change) — the
baseline is a different regime (bench.py through the cortex gateway,
medians only) so it's never merged into the direct-to-neuron line; a
caption spells out the distinction.

- cert_present() must `sudo test -d /etc/letsencrypt/live/...` (root-only

  bench.helexa.ai vhost to the http-only bootstrap (dropping its 443

- bench.internal initial cert: rsync the operator's JWK 'lair' provisioner

  step ca certificate, then remove it (trap + belt-and-suspenders rm).

Verified: bench.helexa.ai (LE) and bench.internal (lair CA) both serve the

Inside the WireGuard mesh, bench.helexa.ai dead-ends at the OPNsense LAN
interface (only WAN :443 is port-forwarded), so add an internal path:

- asset/nginx/bench.internal.conf — server_name bench.internal, internal
  "lair" CA cert, same SPA + /api→bob proxy. Mirrors the *.internal vhost
  convention on oolon.kosherinata.internal.
- asset/systemd/step@.{service,timer} — replicate oolon's smallstep cert
  renewal (step ca renew via mTLS, every 15 min, reload nginx).
- infra-setup.sh: install the step@ units + /etc/nginx/tls/{cert,key},
  install the vhost + enable step@bench.timer once the cert exists; prints
  the one-time issuance command otherwise.

The webroot/http-01 approach needed nginx serving :80, but the gateway's
nginx was dormant. Switch to the host's established convention —
certbot --dns-cloudflare --key-type ecdsa with /root/.certbot-internal —
which needs neither nginx nor :80, so the cert provisions independently
of the vhost being served. Also restorecon the webroot (SELinux
enforcing → nginx 403 without httpd_sys_content_t), and only ever
install the full TLS vhost once the cert exists (http-only bootstrap
otherwise) so `nginx -t` always passes.

nginx on the gateway serves the bench SPA and reverse-proxies /api to the
bob bench API over WireGuard — public, auth-less, same-origin (no CORS),
internal API stays private.

- asset/nginx/bench.helexa.ai.conf (full TLS vhost: SPA + /api proxy) and
  a bootstrap http-only vhost for the initial ACME challenge.
- infra-setup.sh: one-time gateway setup — webroot, Let's Encrypt cert
  (certbot webroot, idempotent), install + enable the vhost.
- deploy.yml: deploy-bench-ui builds the SPA (setup-node) and rsyncs
  dist/ to /var/www/bench.helexa.ai every deploy; built same-origin so
  no VITE_API_BASE.
- cortex-host.conf: scoped gitea_ci rsync grant for the webroot.
- bench/README: production hosting notes.

Part A — helexa-bench read API:
- [api] config (enabled, listen :13132); WAL on the store so API reads
  never block the sweep writer.
- store read methods: summary, series (chronological per-build medians),
  runs (filtered), dimensions, run_count.
- api.rs: axum /api/health|dimensions|summary|series|runs, permissive
  CORS (UI is a separate origin). The `run` daemon binds the API
  alongside the sweep; new `serve` subcommand serves API-only.
- listener plumbing (bench gains a port): data/helexa-bench-firewalld.xml,
  spec install, deploy-bench /api/health probe + firewalld step, sudoers
  firewall-cmd grants, [api] in example + bob.toml.
- 5 API tests + serve smoke.

Part B — bench/ Vite + React-SWC-TS app (router, react-bootstrap,
recharts): Overview (summary table), Trends (decode tok/s & TTFT across
build SHAs), Runs (filterable explorer). Typed API client with
VITE_API_BASE + dev proxy to bob. npm build/typecheck clean. Hosted
separately from the API (per design); .gitignore excludes node_modules/dist.

Adds a deploy-bench job to deploy.yml that rolls helexa-bench onto bob
(the bench host, also running Agent Zero), following the deploy-cortex
pattern: manifest-gated skip-when-current, light "service stays active"
validation (outbound-only, no listener/model to probe), journal capture.
Runs alongside the cortex→neurons chain (no deploy-ordering dependency —
the sweep loop is version-aware).

Boot persistence: all systemd deployments now `systemctl enable --now`
instead of bare `start`, so cortex / neuron / helexa-bench come back
after a host reboot. Covers deploy.yml (all three services) and
deploy-dev.yml (neuron fast path); sudoers gain the matching
`enable --now <svc>` grant.

infra-setup.sh handles bob: provisions gitea_ci, installs the
bench-host sudoers, enables the lair-cafe-unstable repo (bob is a client
host without it), pre-creates /etc/helexa-bench, and syncs
asset/helexa-bench/bob.toml. New assets: bench-host.conf sudoers and
bob.toml (three neuron targets).

feat(bench): version-aware benchmark harness + neuron build metadata

Adds GET /version build metadata to neuron and the helexa-bench crate — a continuous, version-aware harness that records fleet benchmarks into SQLite keyed by neuron build SHA, replacing manual bench.py runs.

CI / Bump version in source (push) Has been skipped
Adds automated, longitudinal performance tracking across neuron builds,
replacing manual script/bench.py runs and hand edits to benchmarks.md.

neuron build metadata + GET /version:
- cortex-core: shared BuildInfo type (build_info.rs).
- neuron build.rs captures git SHA (preferring injected HELEXA_BUILD_SHA,
  else git, else "unknown"), dirty flag, build timestamp, rustc version,
  profile, target, enabled cargo features, and best-effort candle-core
  version from Cargo.lock.
- New GET /version endpoint (version.rs) + clap --version long form.
- SHA injected in CI (build-neuron step) and helexa-neuron.spec
  (%{?helexa_commit}) so tarball RPMs report the real SHA. /version is
  now the canonical "which build is live" probe.

helexa-bench crate:
- Continuous daemon: hits each neuron directly on :13131, exercises each
  warm (status==loaded) model, records every run into a SQLite
  system-of-record stamped with the neuron's full BuildInfo.
- Version-aware: skips any (target, build SHA, model, scenario) cell
  already at samples_per_version, so a steady fleet costs only cheap
  /version + /models polls until a new SHA ships.
- Extensible Scenario trait; phase-1 chat-latency family ported verbatim
  from bench.py (synthetic 128/4096-tok prompts, /no_think, streamed
  TTFT + decode-window tok/s). `report` regenerates the benchmarks table.
- kind="openai" comparison targets scaffolded, not yet wired.

Packaging: data/helexa-bench.service (+ sysusers), prebuilt-binary RPM
spec (outbound-only, no firewalld), and build/package/publish wiring in
build-prerelease.yml with change detection.

Tests: cortex-core BuildInfo round-trip, neuron GET /version integration,
helexa-bench unit (prompt/SSE/config/store) + end-to-end sweep
(record -> skip -> resume on new SHA). Docs updated (benchmarks.md,
CLAUDE.md addendum).

The neuron fleet builds with `cuda cudnn flash-attn`, but nothing in
neuron uses flash-attn: the qwen3_5 (27B) arch is hand-rolled, the
candle-transformers qwen3 model has no flash path, llama is built with
use_flash_attn=false, and `grep flash crates/neuron/src` is empty. The
feature only pulls in candle-flash-attn's sm_80/sm_86 CUDA kernel
sweep — which is exactly where ptxas SIGSEGVs/hangs in #42 (3 hits in
one day, the last a ~4-hour hang that stalled the whole deploy behind
the ampere job).

Dropping the feature removes the #42 failure surface at the root (not
a mitigation) and cuts the longest, most fragile part of each flavour
build. No runtime change — nothing called those kernels. Removed from
all three flavour builds in build-prerelease.yml and from deploy-dev.yml;
ci.yml's cuda-check already used `--features cuda` only.

Closes #42

First phase of speculative decoding: the pure, state-free acceptance
logic and per-target config, unit-tested in isolation before the
draft/verify loop and GDN-state rollback wire it into the generation
path.

greedy_accept walks the drafter's K proposed tokens against the
target's greedy token at each of the K+1 positions, accepting the
longest matching prefix and always committing one bonus token on top
(the target's correction at the first mismatch, or a free extra token
when the whole draft matched). So a round commits 1..=K+1 tokens —
never zero, guaranteeing forward progress even with a useless drafter.
Greedy is exact for temperature-0 (the fleet probe + #22 bench
regime); stochastic acceptance is a later phase.

SpeculativeConfig carries the drafter id (must share the target's
tokenizer — Qwen3.5-0.8B for the Qwen3.6-27B target, both qwen3_5,
byte-identical tokenizer, confirmed on beast) and the draft length K.

6 unit tests: full accept, partial accept, zero accept (progress
guarantee), last-position mismatch, single-token draft, config
gating. Not yet wired into the decode path — phase 2 (single-GPU
draft/verify) follows. Design + phasing on the issue.

The single-GPU vision path was still single-shot: a long vision-bearing
prompt to a single-GPU-loaded qwen3_5 had the OOM exposure the TP path
shed in fa01350 (it was only guard-rejected, never served).

Mirror TpQwen3_5ForCausalLM::prefill_with_images_chunked onto the
single-GPU Qwen3_5ForCausalLM: encode the image(s) once, walk the
pre-expanded prompt in prefill_chunk_tokens() windows splicing the
per-chunk <|image_pad|> rows, accumulate KV + GDN state across chunks
via the growing offset, keep the last chunk's logits. Interleaved
M-RoPE positions are computed once over the whole prompt and sliced
per chunk (an image compresses the position space, so per-chunk offset
arithmetic would be wrong) — so Qwen3_5Model::forward_inner gains an
explicit position_ids path alongside the internal-from-grids
(single-shot) and plain (text/decode) paths, plus a forward_with_positions
entry point. The device-worker ForwardLogitsWithImages handler now
calls the chunked method; chunk size comes from prefill_chunk_tokens()
on the worker thread, so the Job/handle surface and the callers are
unchanged.

The shared validate_vision_prefill VRAM/KV backstop stays (TP keeps it
too) — chunking bounds activation memory, not the accumulating KV
cache, so the guard still does useful work.

Verified on real weights (Qwen3.5-0.8B): extended the #15 vision
reference test to also run the chunked path with chunk_size=64 over the
217-token prompt (4 chunks; the ~196-token image-pad run spans them).
Chunked vs single-shot logits: cosine 1.000000, max_abs 0.0001;
argmax matches the HF reference. The test covers all three
forward_inner branches (text plain / single-shot vision / chunked
vision) on a real single-GPU qwen3_5 load.

Closes #18

doc/plan/* is gitignored, so the P1 learnings briefing could never be
committed. Move it to doc/learnings/p1.md (verbatim) and add
doc/learnings/p2.md capturing the P2 sprint (#11/#23/#1/#15).

The P2 doc's headline: CI green != correct. Four correctness bugs
passed every CI gate and surfaced only on the live fleet (post-gen
snapshots never re-match reasoning models; full-prompt snapshots
break on BPE retokenization; the chunked delta-rule's nilpotent-
squaring shortcut NaNs on correlated keys; the 0.8B masked two of
these by luck). Plus the device-worker/TP state patterns, the
deploy-dev + systemd-drop-in A/B loop, the per-package change-
detection fleet-split failure mode (#42), and the f32-fixture
numerical-validation rig (#15).
