The shared served-model-name `qwen3.6-27b-autoround` (from #490) mislabels the
non-autoround 27b scenes (fp8 dual-max, lmcache): /v1/models advertises
"autoround" while `root` points at qwen3.6-27b-fp8. Same class on gemma-4-31b —
after the v0.24.0 consolidation the default is cyankiwi qat-AWQ-INT4 (bf16 KV),
yet the LiteLLM route still targeted `gemma-4-31b-autoround` (a latent #482 drift).
Fix WITHOUT breaking anything, via vLLM multi-served-name:
- Every 27b scene now serves `qwen3.6-27b <its-quant-name>`; every gemma-31b
scene serves `gemma-4-31b <its-quant-name>`. The neutral name is PRIMARY
(honest /v1/models id); the quant-specific name is retained as a live ALIAS.
- LiteLLM: add `qwen3.6-27b` / `gemma-4-31b` canonical public routes; keep the
`-autoround` routes as back-compat aliases (same upstream). Repairs the gemma drift.
- Migrate our own MODEL= defaults + docs (bench/verify/quality/launch/setup, c3,
tui-core, EXAMPLES, ...) to the neutral name. Weights slugs (`-autoround-int4`)
untouched; CHANGELOG + results/ history left as-is.
Retiring the `-autoround` alias entirely is a deliberate later step once nothing
still asks for it.
Live-verified on-rig (single/minimal, stock v0.24.0): /v1/models lists BOTH names
(root=...-autoround-int4); chat to `qwen3.6-27b` AND `qwen3.6-27b-autoround` both
return 200; `qwen3.6-27b-fp8` correctly 404s. Full shell gate 59/59 (1 = known
worktree-fixture); c3 pytest 41 passed; served-name arg-order + YAML validated.

* feat(switch): model-default resolver + user-pinnable defaults
Add a two-layer default scheme on top of the existing <engine>/default map.
<engine>/default stays the maintainer's recommendation (read-only to users);
the new <model>/default is the user's preference — their .env pin if set,
else a curated pick for the detected topology.
compose_registry.py: two maintainer knobs next to DEFAULTS —
RECOMMENDED_DEFAULT_MODELS (short opt-in shortlist, not an exhaustive
ranking; new models are NOT auto-added) and ENGINE_PREFERENCE (per-topology
engine order). Plus resolver helpers (curated_default_target,
community_default_target stub, model_default_pin_key, engine_set/model_set,
slug_topology, model_of_slug).
registry-emit.sh: shared resolver model_default_target(root, model, topology)
— the single injection point for both launchers. Precedence ladder: --variant
(caller) -> .env pin -> community seam (None today) -> curated ENGINE_PREFERENCE
walk (skips non-functional (NA) slugs) -> degradation (notice + nearest-lower
topology, else a clear "pick explicitly" message; never crashes). Plus
x_default_dispatch: X/default with X in engine-set -> engine rec; X in
model-set -> model default; else error (engines + model-ids are disjoint).
switch.sh: <model>/default token; --set-default <slug> / --clear-default
<model> (round-trip the .env pin CLUB3090_DEFAULT_<MODELID>); a Defaults view
appended to --list (also standalone via --defaults) marking user-pin vs
curated. PR-A's grouping/markers/counts and the --force gate preserved.
launch.sh: bare invocation -> first installed shortlist model -> its
<model>/default (no full wizard); a pinned fast-path ("Launch your default
<slug>? [Y/n]"); a post-boot offer ("Make <slug> your default? [y/N]"). Any
narrowing flag keeps the explicit wizard path. Also load CLUB3090_DEFAULT_*
pin keys from .env even when MODEL_DIR is exported in the shell (the existing
.env loader is MODEL_DIR-gated, which would otherwise hide the pin).
Pin validation is warn + fall back, never blocking: unknown slug / wrong
model / topology-mismatch / (NA) status -> notice + curated default.
Tests: new test-model-default-resolver.sh (curated walk, (NA) skip,
degradation, X/default dispatch, pin override + all validation paths,
community seam skipped, .env round-trip); test-default-resolver.sh extended
with <model>/default launch.sh dispatch. Full suite green (only the
pre-existing test-submit-bench.sh fixture failure remains); 45 entries
unchanged; kv-calc calibration 17/17.

* docs: document the model-default resolver + user pins
Ship the user/contributor docs alongside the resolver code (repo convention —
update existing docs, no new top-level doc).
- README: single-card realign (ik-llama = fastest blessed single default,
llama.cpp = cliff-immune alternative — matches ENGINE_PREFERENCE single
order); add "pin your default" + <model>/default to Quick start.
- CLAUDE.md (= AGENTS.md): document RECOMMENDED_DEFAULT_MODELS +
ENGINE_PREFERENCE + the shared resolver as maintainer knobs next to DEFAULTS.
- FAQ: extend "switch to a different model" with <model>/default; new "How do
I set my own default config?" Q (two-layer model, --set-default/--clear-
default/--defaults, .env key, warn+fallback validation).
- SINGLE_CARD / DUAL_CARD: the resolver + the per-topology engine order; pin
hint.
- GETTING_STARTED: first-run uses <model>/default + the in-flow "set as
default?" prompt.
- ADDING_MODELS: a new model resolves via ENGINE_PREFERENCE; add a DEFAULTS row
per engine; RECOMMENDED_DEFAULT_MODELS is not auto-grown.
- UPSTREAM: beellama Docker-image row (gates beellama onboarding; the resolver
skips it today and it auto-promotes to single default on catalog).
- models/qwen3.6-27b/CHANGELOG: dated PR-B entry.

Conceptual narrative (hardware → engine → model size → quant → templates)
that the doc set lacked: GETTING_STARTED is commands-only, GLOSSARY is
isolated definitions, FAQ is troubleshooting. Cross-linked from README,
GETTING_STARTED, and GLOSSARY. Carries a scope banner (stack is
NVIDIA/3090-tested; other vendors are context, not a support commitment)
and an RTX 3090 FP8 caveat (no FP8 weight compute on Ampere; AWQ/GPTQ
for weights, fp8_e5m2 KV only). Links to PULL.md / KV_MATH.md for the
stack's actual fit-math path.
