Backend:
- overrides.py: read/write /data/models-overrides.yaml (knobs + custom entries)
- apply_knobs_to_args(): strip matching flags from bundled vllm_args and append knob values, so knob changes properly override bundled defaults
- extract_knobs_from_args(): seed UI knob values from bundled args so the Advanced dialog has correct starting state
- models.py: load_catalog merges overrides on top of bundled yaml
- GET /api/models returns effective_knobs per model
- PUT /api/models/{key}/knobs persists knob changes
- POST /api/models adds a custom catalog entry
- DELETE /api/models/{key} removes a custom entry (bundled models cannot be deleted)
- swap_manager.reload_catalog() called after each mutation so swaps see latest
Frontend:
- New 'Advanced' button on every card opens a modal dialog: max-model-len input, gpu-memory-utilization slider, three optimization checkboxes (fastsafetensors, prefix caching, FP8 KV cache). Save persists; Cancel discards. Custom models also have a Delete button.
- After a successful download, automatically open the 'Add to catalog' dialog pre-filled with the repo, with the same knob defaults — user just enters key, display name, and clicks Save.
- Custom catalog entries are tagged with a blue 'custom' pill on the card.
Package: bump 0.2.3:0; main.ts sets MODELS_OVERRIDES=/data/models-overrides.yaml so overrides persist on the StartOS volume.
Dashboard:
- New 'Always-on services' section with cards for Parakeet and Magpie
- Each card: host:port, model loaded, status pill (Healthy/Unhealthy/Starting/Not configured)
- Start, Restart, Stop buttons. Buttons disabled when not applicable for current state
- Restart counter shown when > 1 (would have surfaced the old magpie crash loop)
Backend:
- New /api/services GET: docker container state + http health for each support service
- New POST /api/services/{name}/{action} for start | stop | restart
- services.py module: docker_state, run_action via SSH
- config.py: PARAKEET_HOST/USER/CONTAINER and MAGPIE_* env vars, default to spark2_*
- health.py: use per-service hosts (no longer hard-wired to spark2_host)
Package:
- sparkConfig.yaml.ts: add 6 new optional fields
- configureSparks action: optional 'Parakeet host', 'Parakeet container', 'Magpie host', 'Magpie container' fields; descriptions explain they default to Spark 2 when blank
- Handler normalizes nulls to empty strings before merge
- main.ts: pass new env vars to container
- bump to 0.2.0:0
Per user correction: '<spark-user>' is not the DGX Spark factory default. Generic-ize:
- configureSparks: no default user; placeholder 'your SSH username'
- sparkConfig schema: empty string defaults
- main.ts env fallback: empty
- showPublicKey: drop the '<spark-user>' fallback; skip Spark if user not configured
- Update feedback memory with the correction
