- Configure Sparks gains a vLLM port field (blank => 8888, our launch-cluster.sh
default); VLLM_PORT plumbed configureSparks -> sparkConfig.yaml -> main.ts env
-> config.py. So an adopter whose vLLM listens elsewhere (e.g. 8000) can fix
the "vLLM unreachable" health check without rebuilding the package.
- Harden numeric env parsing (config._env_int): a blank or malformed port now
falls back to its default instead of crashing daemon startup (closes a P3
tech-debt item; the Configure panel passes unset optional fields as "").
- Add scripts/gitea-release.sh + `make release` to publish the built s9pk to
Gitea Releases, so the OpenClaw adopter pulls updates with a read-only token
instead of being hand-sent the package.
- Capture the OpenClaw/Johnny-5 coexistence epic and the "control plane, not a
job runner" stance in ROADMAP.md and Current state.
- CLAUDE.md trimmed to whole-repo facts (58 lines); subsystem guidance
moved to .claude/rules/{startos-package,fastapi-image,redaction,
audio-speech}.md with paths: frontmatter so each loads only when
matching files are touched
- .gitignore: track .claude/rules/ while keeping the rest of .claude/
(settings.local.json) ignored
- test-audio-with-speakers.sh: require audio-file arg in docs, replace
owner-specific SPARK_CONTROL/VLLM defaults with generic ones
(localhost dev server + Spark Control vLLM proxy), discover the
loaded LLM via /api/status since /v1/models lists audio models only
- document REDACTION_MAP_DB + CONNECTIVITY_LOG as required for local
dev (/data only exists in the container)
- prettier pass over startos/actions (formatting drift)
Hotfix (was v0.3.1):
- services.py: cache 'unreachable' per (host,user) for 25s so a dead Spark doesn't hang every /api/services call behind 6s ssh timeout
- ssh_run timeout reduced 10 -> 6s for docker_state probes
- hardware probe: shorter SSH timeout (6s), longer cache TTL for failures (25s)
- JS pollStatus retries loadModels() if state.models is empty (recovers from cold-start proxy timeout)
- Unreachable hardware card now includes troubleshooting steps (Spark Control cannot SSH into an unreachable Spark to restart it)
v0.4 NIM installer:
- nim.py module: curated SUGGESTED_NIMS list (Parakeet, Magpie, Riva) + NimManager that runs docker login nvcr.io + docker pull + docker run -d --gpus all -p PORT:PORT -v VOL:/opt/nim/.cache -e NGC_API_KEY -e ... --restart=unless-stopped + chown the volume to uid 1000 + restart. Streams all output via SSE; redacts the API key from log lines.
- custom_services.py: persists installed NIMs to /data/services-overrides.yaml so they appear in the services panel after install
- services.py: merges custom services into the panel
- /api/nim/catalog GET, /api/nim/install POST + GET/SSE
- /api/services/{name} DELETE for custom services
- UI: '+ Install NIM' button next to 'Always-on services'; modal lists curated images each with a 'Pick' button + a custom-image form; installation runs in a second dialog with phase + elapsed timer + collapsible log
- NGC API key field added to Configure Sparks (masked); injected as NGC_API_KEY env var into the container
Package: bump 0.4.0:0; main.ts adds SERVICES_OVERRIDES + NGC_API_KEY env vars
Hardware dashboard:
- New hardware.py module: SSH probes each Spark for hostname, uptime, load+cores, RAM, disk, GPU (name, util, temp, power) + per-process GPU memory sum
- DGX Spark uses unified memory (nvidia-smi memory.total returns N/A); fall back to per-process compute memory and compute fraction against system RAM. Marks with gpu_unified_memory=true.
- 4s TTL cache in HardwareProbe to avoid hammering
- /api/hardware returns per-Spark snapshot
- UI: 'Spark hardware' section at the top with per-Spark cards (CPU load, RAM, GPU mem (unified), GPU util + temp + power, disk) — bars with warn threshold styling
- Polls every 8s
Knob context (tied to live hardware):
- Each Advanced knob now shows plain-English help text
- 'GPU memory %' shows '~N GB allocated · ~M GB left for OS/buffers' computed from actual Spark RAM
- 'Max context' shows '~N pages of text'
- Toggles show tradeoff descriptions
Explain context:
- '✨ Explain context' button on the update banner
- /api/explain-updates POST: forwards pending commits to the loaded vLLM model and streams its response back as SSE
- Renders into an expandable 'Explained by the loaded LLM' section under Pending commits
- Reasoning tokens shown italicized when the model emits them
Open WebUI integration:
- New 'Open WebUI URL' optional field in Configure Sparks
- /api/config exposes it; UI shows 'Open chat ↗' button in the top bar if set
Downloads:
- Third radio option: Spark 1 only / Spark 2 only / Both Sparks
- Backend picks SSH target based on mode
- HF repo link icon next to the input
- Helper line about NVFP4 for Blackwell
Model cards:
- Repo name is now a clickable link to its Hugging Face page
Package: bump 0.3.0:0
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
- showPublicKey now uses result.group: install command and raw key are each their own one-click copy box; description is brief
- /api/endpoints returns stable shape { vllm, parakeet, magpie } with base_url + model + ready, for other LAN services to consume without hardcoding Spark IPs
- health.py: parakeet/magpie now also expose base_url
- README: documented /api/endpoints shape
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
- configureSparks.ts: generic placeholders (e.g. 192.168.1.10), no Alice-specific IPs; descriptions explain the role of each node instead of naming his hardware
- showPublicKey.ts: reads sparkConfig.yaml; emits a ready-to-paste one-liner (KEY='...' followed by 'ssh user@host "echo $KEY >> authorized_keys"' for each configured Spark). Falls back to generic instructions if Configure Sparks hasn't been run yet.
- /api/status now includes vllm.base_url for the OpenAI endpoint
- New endpoint panel in UI: base URL + model ID rows with copy buttons + collapsible curl example
- Bump version to 0.1.0:1
