Follow-up to commit 1b2a76c which added the speed-vs-context section to
models/qwen3.6-27b/llama-cpp/README.md. The new learning (smaller -ub
buys more ctx, especially when mmproj F16 is loaded) needs to be
discoverable from the high-level user-facing docs too — not just buried
in the model-specific README.
- SINGLE_CARD.md: corrected the "49K is the safe-headroom max with mmproj"
claim (it's the speed-optimal max; ub=512 lever pushes to 192K) +
prominent override snippet right under the profile description.
- CLIFFS.md: added a 2026-05-20 refinement note pointing out that `-ub`
is doing two jobs (cliff-survival + KV-budget), and the optimal value
is configuration-conditional on vision-on/off.
- FAQ.md: inline note in the canonical switch.sh recipe for mtp-vision
pointing users at the override.
All three back-reference the README's full sweep data as the canonical
source; surfaced by @JensJN in #170.

User track
Start here if you want to run a model.
| Doc | What it is |
|---|---|
GETTING_STARTED.md |
Start here — 5-minute clone-to-curl path. No decisions, no menus. |
SINGLE_CARD.md |
1× RTX 3090 — workload → curated config → quick start. |
DUAL_CARD.md |
2× RTX 3090 (PCIe / NVLink auto-detected) — workload → config → quick start. |
MULTI_CARD.md |
3+ GPUs — TP scaling math, derivation from dual.yml, valid TP values. |
PULL.md |
Any HF safetensors repo — evaluate against the KV math, honest about confidence. |
HARDWARE.md |
Card-class questions — 4090/5090, power caps, NVLink, laptop EC power. |
GLOSSARY.md |
TPS / KV / MTP / TP and the rest of the vocabulary. |
FAQ.md |
Common setup and operational questions. |
COMPARISONS.md |
Self-host vs cloud APIs — cost crossover and when each wins. |
EXAMPLES.md |
Worked end-to-end usage examples. |
Contributor / maintainer track
The v0.8.0 pull pipeline (in pipeline order)
A model slug flows through these stages. Read them in order to understand the whole.
| Stage | Doc | What it owns |
|---|---|---|
[D] |
COMPOSE_GENERATOR.md |
The #141 compose generator — the substrate that owns the arch→patches matrix. |
| Gate | PULL_GATE.md |
scripts/pull.sh — the locked 6-stratum abort taxonomy, [C0]/[C2a]/[B]/[C1] gates, §4.1 confidence×verdict table. |
[E] |
PULL_EMIT_DERIVED.md |
Download → boot → smoke for a download-eligible derived model; writes the §6 capture artifacts. |
[F] |
LOOP.md |
The calibration loop — reads the capture bundle, classifies, runs the inbound-trust pipeline, dedups failures into the tracker. |
Patch & model contribution
| Doc | What it is |
|---|---|
PATCH_POLICY.md |
When/how a patch ships, the local-overlay vs upstream rules. |
PATCH_ATTRIBUTION.md |
The Phase-A patch-attribution matrix — arch → engine-pin → required patches. |
ADDING_MODELS.md |
How a new model gets added to the curated catalog. |
KV_MATH.md |
The KV-cache math the [B] fit verdict is computed from. |
Stack reference & ops
| Doc | What it is |
|---|---|
ARCHITECTURE.md |
Repo/stack architecture overview. |
UPSTREAM.md |
Upstream PR / issue tracker for this stack. |
