Optional InnerQ calibration (spiritbuun path): set env TURBO_INNERQ=1 during first prefill window.
When speculative decoding is enabled alongside TriAttention, Godzilla extends the recent-token
protection window by common_speculative_n_max() (+2 for DFlash) so draft-verify KV cells are
not pruned mid-cycle.
Trellis-coded KV; better precision at ~2–3 bit effective.

pwsh -File $SOMS_ROOT/scripts\run_vibethinker_godzilla_spin.ps1Variants: baseline-8k on engine godzilla (turbo variants removed per KV gate failure).
Important note (2026-06-20): Turbo KV configs are not viable for this model. KV matrix on godzilla (kv_matrix_20260620_105529.txt) shows f16 baseline PPL=1313; turbo3/turbo4 = 12478 (+850%); most turbo/tcq thousands of % worse. Gate FAIL. Pre-publish sweep therefore uses baseline-8k only for any hot-rod attempt on godzilla (see run-prepublish-sweep.ps1 and journal). Kvarn8 is close to baseline. Use baseline (or suitable kvarn) + tri for this reasoning model.

Engine commit: b579196d1 (kv-god)
Model: Qwopus3.5-9B-coder-Exp-Q4_K_M.gguf (~5.2 GB)
Hardware: RTX 3080 10 GB, TURBO_INNERQ=1
Results (SOMS hot-rod §5):
- Peak promotion HE (qwen harness): 34/40 (baseline-8k)
- Other strong variants: turbo3-turbo4, turbo3-turbo4-tri also 33–34/40
- Speed frontier: 97.1 tok/s (baseline-8k)
- NIAH limit profile: 4096 pass; 8192 HTTP 400 (harness
found=False error=HTTP 400). 4096 is reliable for this stack.
Baseline-8k launch args (certified peak):
-ngl 99 --flash-attn on -c 8192 --parallel 1 -b 4096 -ub 128 --jinja --temp 0.2 --top-p 0.95
(Note: observed duplicate -ngl 99 in some launcher output; harmless for this run.)
Turbo + TriAttention variant (also cleared promotion):
-ngl 99 --flash-attn on -c 8192 -ctk turbo3 -ctv turbo4 --no-warmup --jinja \
--triattention-stats $TRIATTENTION_CALIB_DIR/qwopus3.5-9b-coder-exp.triattention \
--triattention-budget 8192 --triattention-hard-prefix 4096
TriAttention calibration used: qwopus3.5-9b-coder-exp.triattention (auto-resolved via ensure hook).
Recommendation: Use baseline-8k for maximum speed/quality on this 9B. Fall back to turbo3-turbo4-tri when KV cache pressure is high. Both stacks are production-viable on the 10 GB card.

Model: Qwopus3.5-4B-coder-Q5_K_M.gguf (~2.9 GB)
Results (SOMS hot-rod §5):
- Peak promotion HE (qwen harness): 29/40 (baseline-8k)
- Speed frontier: 121.1 tok/s (baseline-8k)
- NIAH limit profile: 4096 pass; 8192 HTTP 400 (harness prompt budget; same pattern as 9B). 4096 is reliable.
Baseline-8k launch args:

(Note: duplicate -ngl in launcher output.)
Recommendation: Baseline-8k is fast (132 tok/s) and solid on HE for 4B. NIAH is weak at 4k+; use for short-context tasks. TriAttention not wired for this small model in the run.

WikiText PPL (ctx=512):
- f16/f16 baseline: 634.01
- turbo3/turbo4: +9.86% (quality ceiling on hybrid SWA arch — not an engine crash; TriAttention + auto-fit now fully wired for Gemma4-ISWA)
- turbo2_tcq/turbo3_tcq: +31.53%
- kvarn5/kvarn8: PASS (≤2%)
- kvarn2/3/4/6: borderline or FAIL
Recommendation: Use f16 or kvarn5/kvarn8 for quality-sensitive work. Turbo KV is viable for speed but expect ~10% PPL drift on this arch. TriAttention smoke pending separate server validation. (See godzilla-triattention-iswa-engine-patch-plan.md for v2 cal path.)

- kvarn2/kvarn5: intermittent CUDA crash — waived when kvarn4 within gate

TriAttention calibration used: $TRIATTENTION_CALIB_DIR/negentropy-opus-9b.triattention (per roster)
Recommendation: Baseline-8k is the certified hot-rod path. Turbo stacks produced acceptable HE in the run but were not the peak; use only if KV pressure requires (full matrix showed small delta). TriAttention viable on baseline for quality.

vibethinker-3b:
- KV gate: FAIL on all turbo/tcq (e.g. turbo3/turbo4 +850% PPL vs f16=1313); kvarn8 near baseline (-0.18%).
- Hot-rod: Skipped (turbo variants incompatible); baseline-8k is only viable stack.
- Tri path: $TRIATTENTION_CALIB_DIR/vibethinker-3b.triattention present.
- Action in roster/sweep: Turbo variants removed from godzilla block; Variant forced to baseline-8k.
negentropy-opus-9b:
- KV gate: PASS (small deltas on turbo ~0.5%).
- Hot-rod: CERTIFIED on baseline-8k (32/40 peak).
- Multiple variant HE runs completed (baseline, turbo, tri).
- Viable: baseline preferred for cert; turbo/tri acceptable per HE.
fablevibes-14b-moe:
- KV gate: PASS (

prepublish_godzilla_hotrod_fablevibes-14b-moe_2026-06-29.jsonl; speed 34.9 tok/s; NIAH 4096 pass). Alternate sweep: baseline/moe_ncpu32/tri-moe 27/40; kvarn3-8k also 28/40 (tie; kvarn4 chosen as peak stack). - MoE path uses

- KV gate: FAIL (
kv_matrix_20260629_130711.txt; turbo +55%, tcq +117% vs f16; kvarn3/kvarn4 improve but turbo family fails gate). - Native Gemma4 (non-hybrid SWA); TriAttention cal at
$TRIATTENTION_CALIB_DIR/gemma4/huihui-gemma-4-12b.triattention(present; re-confirmed 2026-06-29). - Hot-rod: NOT_CERTIFIED — peak HE 20/40 (baseline-8k, 2026-06-30). kvarn4-8k: INFRA_ABORT — original SWA checkpoint bug fixed @
677b25e02(server-context.cpp+ roster--ctx-checkpoints 0); llama-server rebuilt 2026-06-30; ctest 9/9 PASS. Post-fix kvarn4 HE retries still abort: server survives HE1–2 then silent crash mid-decode on HE3 (connection refused; noGGML_ABORTin log —huihui-gemma-4-12b_kvarn4-8k_he_swa677b_20260630.log). kvarn4 full HE score not obtained; below §5 cert bar (28/40). - Viability: baseline/kvarn3/kvarn4 only for serving (no turbo/tcq); not hot-rod viable on MEMORY-ALPHA until harness/model quality improves.
gemma4-coding (re-triage context):
- Turbo quality regression confirmed (+9.86%); hybrid ISWA requires v2 .triattention per dedicated engine patch plan.
- KV PASS only on specific kvarn; not hot-rod cert path yet.
- Status: QUEUED in TSV; halted; engine fixes + v2 re-cal required before resume.
All wiring respects the "only use features that pass KV gate for that model" principle. Full 4-model sweep not completed; hot-rod certs limited to negentropy + prior 3. Update TSVs/PROFILES/roster/journal after resume.
