+## Quick start
+
+```bash
+cd /lustre/fast/fast/zqiu/orbit-iclr/orbit
+export UV_PROJECT_ENVIRONMENT=/fast/zqiu/orbit-iclr/orbit_env
+export UV_LINK_MODE=copy
+export CUDA_HOME=/is/software/nvidia/cuda-13.2
+source env.sh
+uv sync --extra allinone
+```
+
+`env.sh` defaults the cache to `$HOME/.cache/uv_cu13_orbit` and the arch list to `9.0 10.0`, so
+neither needs to be passed. Everything below explains *why* those are the defaults, and how to
+check the build actually did what it claims.
+
+**The 1–2 hour figure is for a cold cache.** `$HOME/.cache/uv_cu13_orbit` already holds built
+wheels for every expensive package at the exact revisions `pyproject.toml` pins — flash-attn
+2.8.3, sglang-kernel 0.4.5, TransformerEngine 2.14.0, DeepEP, DeepGEMM, mamba-ssm,
+causal-conv1d — so a sync against it skips every source build. Keeping that cache is worth
+roughly two hours per rebuild; this is the second reason not to park it somewhere volatile.
+
+Note the kernel package renamed with the v0.5.16 move: the `sgl-kernel/` subdirectory publishes
+**`sglang-kernel` 0.4.5** (it was `sgl-kernel` 0.3.21 on the v0.5.9 line), so a cache warmed
+before that move has no entry for it and will rebuild it once. The import name stays `sgl_kernel`.
+
+Measured 2026-07-29 with a warm cache: resolution 617 ms, orbit's own build 7.5 s, and
+**68 minutes wall clock** for the whole sync — 330 packages, 12 GB. Nearly all of that hour is
+`UV_LINK_MODE=copy` writing to Lustre, not compilation; the last ~17 packages alone are the
+large CUDA ones (flash-attn 934 MB, sgl-kernel `flash_ops` 852 MB, `libtransformer_engine`
+535 MB). Symlink mode would cut this to a few minutes at the cost of permanently coupling the
+venv to the cache. Budget the hour; it buys an environment that survives losing the cache.
+
+## The three decisions that matter
+
+### 1. The uv cache must be flock-capable *and* persistent
+
+uv takes `flock` on its cache during builds. **Lustre (`/lustre/fast`) returns `ENOSYS` on
+`flock`**, so the cache cannot live next to the code. That leaves two candidates, and only one
+is correct:
+
+- `/tmp` — flock-capable, but **node-local and cleared when you leave the node.** This was the
+  old default and it destroyed the environment on 2026-07-29.
+- `$HOME/.cache/uv_cu13_orbit` — cluster-home is NFS: flock-capable, persistent, and visible
+  from every node. **This is the default now.**
+
+The failure mode when the cache disappears is the reason to care. uv's default install mode is
+**symlink**, so site-packages holds links into the cache rather than copies. Lose the cache and
+all ~95,000 links dangle. Python then treats each package directory — present, but with no
+loadable `__init__.py` — as a **namespace package**, so `import torch` *succeeds* and you get:
+
+```
+AttributeError: module 'torch' has no attribute '__version__'
+```
+
+No `ImportError`, no warning. That silence is the whole hazard: the env looks importable, a job
+launches, a GPU slot burns, and the failure surfaces somewhere unrelated.
+
+### 2. `UV_LINK_MODE=copy` decouples the venv from the cache
+
+With `copy`, site-packages holds real files and the environment is a self-contained artifact —
+deleting or relocating the cache afterwards cannot break it. The cost is roughly 25 GB of extra
+space on `/fast` (which has hundreds of TB) and a slower sync, since ~95k small files get
+written to Lustre.
+
+Symlink mode against the home cache would also be node-portable, and saves that space. It stays
+coupled to the cache forever, which is exactly the coupling that just failed. Prefer `copy`
+unless disk pressure forces otherwise. Either way: **never run `uv cache clean`** — under
+symlink mode it guts every environment pointing into that cache.
+
+### 3. Build for both architectures, never auto-detect
+
+`env.sh` used to read the arch off `nvidia-smi`. Built on an H100 node that pins **sm_90 only**,
+and the kernels then fail to load on B200 — after the two hours are already spent. The default
+is now an explicit fat-binary list, and it needs to be spelled four times because these builds
+do not share a convention:
+
+```
+TORCH_CUDA_ARCH_LIST="9.0 10.0"        # torch cpp_extension builds (mamba, causal-conv1d, ...)
+NVTE_CUDA_ARCHS="90;100"               # TransformerEngine
+FLASH_ATTN_CUDA_ARCHS="90;100"         # flash-attn
+CMAKE_CUDA_ARCHITECTURES="90a;100a"    # sgl-kernel (cmake); the `a` variants expose
+                                       #   wgmma (sm_90a) and tcgen05 (sm_100a)
+```
+
+Setting only `TORCH_CUDA_ARCH_LIST` is the trap — TE, flash-attn and sgl-kernel each ignore it.
+Verify the result rather than assuming it (see below); a single-arch build is not detectable
+until you run on the other machine.
+
+Measured on the cached wheels with `cuobjdump --list-elf` (2026-07-29), which is what the
+current environment installs:
+
+| Binary | Arches present |
+|---|---|
+| `flash_attn_2_cuda...so` | sm_80, **sm_90**, **sm_100**, sm_120 |
+| `libtransformer_engine.so` | sm_75, sm_80, sm_89, **sm_90/90a**, **sm_100/100a**, sm_103a, sm_120 |
+| `sgl_kernel/sm90/common_ops` and `sgl_kernel/sm100/common_ops` | sm_80, sm_89, **sm_90/90a**, **sm_100a**, sm_103a, sm_120a |
+
+`sgl_kernel/flash_ops.abi3.so` carries only sm_80/86/**90a** — that is upstream's design, not a
+misconfiguration: those are the FlashAttention-3 kernels, which are Hopper-only. Blackwell goes
+through the `sm100/` ops directory instead, which is why sgl-kernel ships `sm90/` and `sm100/`
+as separate subpackages rather than one fat module.
+
+## Full procedure
+
+### 0. Prerequisites
+
+```bash
+command -v uv                       # 0.10.11 at /home/zqiu/.local/bin/uv
+ls -d /is/software/nvidia/cuda-13.2  # or: module load cuda/13.2
+nvidia-smi --query-gpu=name,compute_cap --format=csv,noheader
+```
+
+`module load` is a no-op in non-interactive shells, so set `CUDA_HOME` explicitly when scripting.
+Budget ~25 GB on home for the cache and ~25 GB on `/fast` for the venv.
+
+### 1. Remove the old environment
+
+`uv sync` reconciles an existing venv rather than rebuilding it, and it cannot repair one whose
+symlinks are dangling. Start clean:
+
+```bash
+rm -rf /fast/zqiu/orbit-iclr/orbit_env
+```
+
+### 2. Build
+
+```bash
+cd /lustre/fast/fast/zqiu/orbit-iclr/orbit
+export UV_PROJECT_ENVIRONMENT=/fast/zqiu/orbit-iclr/orbit_env
+export UV_LINK_MODE=copy
+export CUDA_HOME=/is/software/nvidia/cuda-13.2
+source env.sh
+uv sync --extra allinone 2>&1 | tee "$HOME/log/orbit_env_build.log"
+```
+
+What `env.sh` sets that `pyproject.toml` cannot: `CUDA_HOME` and the CUDA `PATH`/`LD_LIBRARY_PATH`;
+`CPATH`/`LIBRARY_PATH` pointing at the venv's own NCCL, cuDNN and NVSHMEM headers (the CUDA
+module ships none of them, and TransformerEngine's source build needs `nccl.h`);
+`CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH` at torch's cmake config (without it sgl-kernel fails with "kineto not
+found"); `UV_CONCURRENT_BUILDS=1` (nine concurrent CUDA packages each running `ninja -j32`
+exhausts file descriptors); and `CMAKE_BUILD_PARALLEL_LEVEL` scaled to RAM, because sgl-kernel's
+CUTLASS template units take 10–30 GB *each* under nvcc and `nproc`-wide parallelism OOMs the
+node.
+
+### 3. Verify
+
+Imports and versions. **Source `env.sh` too, not just the activate script** — `deep_ep` and
+`deep_gemm` call `find_cuda_home()` at import time and assert if it returns `None`, and
+`megatron.core` imports `deep_ep` transitively, so without `CUDA_HOME` all three fail with a
+bare `AssertionError` and no message:
+
+```bash
+source /fast/zqiu/orbit-iclr/orbit_env/bin/activate
+cd /lustre/fast/fast/zqiu/orbit-iclr/orbit
+export CUDA_HOME=/is/software/nvidia/cuda-13.2   # see note below
+source env.sh
+python - <<'PY'
+import importlib
+for m in ["torch","transformers","sglang","megatron.core","deep_ep","deep_gemm",
+          "transformer_engine","sgl_kernel","flash_attn","orbit"]:
+    mod = importlib.import_module(m)
+    assert getattr(mod, "__file__", None), f"{m} is a NAMESPACE PACKAGE — env is broken"
+    print(f"  {m:20s} {getattr(mod,'__version__','ok')}")
+import torch; print("  cuda", torch.cuda.is_available(), torch.cuda.get_device_name(0))
+PY
+```
+
+The `__file__` assertion is the real check: a dangling-symlink env imports every one of these
+*successfully* as an empty namespace package, so `import` alone proves nothing.
+
+`CUDA_HOME` must be set explicitly in any non-interactive shell. `env.sh` tries `module load
+cuda/13.2` first, but `module` is a no-op when not interactive, and its fallback list
+(`/usr/local/cuda-13.2`, `/usr/local/cuda`, `/opt/cuda-13.2`, `/opt/cuda`) does not include this
+cluster's `/is/software/nvidia/cuda-13.2`. It warns rather than failing silently:
+`env.sh: WARNING — CUDA 13.2 toolkit not found.`
+
+Verified on 2026-08-17 (`i106`, H100 80GB), against the v0.5.16 sglang line:
+
+```
+  torch                2.11.0+cu130        megatron.core   0.18.0rc0
+  transformers         5.12.1              deep_ep         2.0.0
+  sglang               0.0.0.dev15479+g05cd76b4d           deep_gemm       0.1.4.post1
+  transformer_engine   2.14.0+71bbefbf     sgl_kernel      0.4.5

+  cuda True NVIDIA H100 80GB HBM3
+```
+
+No broken links, which is the check that would have caught the 2026-07-29 failure at build time:
+
+```bash
+find /fast/zqiu/orbit-iclr/orbit_env -xtype l | wc -l    # must be 0
+```
+
+**Both architectures present** in the source-built kernels:
+
+```bash
+SP=/fast/zqiu/orbit-iclr/orbit_env/lib/python3.12/site-packages
+for so in $(find $SP -name "*.so" -path "*flash_attn*" -o -name "*.so" -path "*transformer_engine*" \
+            -o -name "*.so" -path "*sgl_kernel*" | head); do
+  echo "$so: $(cuobjdump --list-elf $so 2>/dev/null | grep -o 'sm_[0-9]*' | sort -u | tr '\n' ' ')"
+done
+```
+
+Each should list **both** `sm_90` and `sm_100`. Anything showing one arch was built from a
+variable the package ignored — fix that variable and rebuild just that package with
+`uv sync --extra allinone --reinstall-package <name>`.
+
+CPU test suite. Use `tests`, not `tests/fast` — the 18 top-level files under `tests/` are the
+CUDA-touching ones, and they are exactly the tests that distinguish a real environment from a
+version-matched CPU stand-in:
+
+```bash
+cd /lustre/fast/fast/zqiu/orbit-iclr/orbit
+python -m pytest tests -q -p no:cacheprovider
+```
+
+**391 passed, 0 failed, 0 collection errors in 110 s** on 2026-07-29. For comparison, the
+CPU-only proxy venv used while this env was unavailable gave 373 passed with **5 collection
+errors** — those 5 modules import cleanly here, which is where the extra 18 tests come from. A
+run that reports collection errors is a signal the CUDA layer is missing, not a pre-existing
+condition to wave through.
+
+## Daily use
+
+```bash
+source /fast/zqiu/orbit-iclr/orbit_env/bin/activate
+cd /lustre/fast/fast/zqiu/orbit-iclr/orbit
+export CUDA_HOME=/is/software/nvidia/cuda-13.2
+source env.sh                                  # CUDA_HOME, LD_LIBRARY_PATH, z3 soname path
+source examples/load_cuda13_2_orbit_env.sh     # cuDNN / flashinfer runtime — launchers only
+```
+
+`env.sh` is not optional even for "just running the tests": `megatron.core` needs it, via the
+`deep_ep` import chain described above.
+
+**Order matters — activate first, then `env.sh`.** `env.sh` resolves the target venv as
+`ORBIT_VENV` → `UV_PROJECT_ENVIRONMENT` → `VIRTUAL_ENV` → `./.venv`, so activating first lets
+`$VIRTUAL_ENV` point it at the right site-packages. Source it the other way round and it falls
+through to a `./.venv` that does not exist here, `SITE_PACKAGES` points at nothing, and
+`deep_ep` fails with `No libnccl.so found in .../.venv/lib/python3.12/site-packages/nvidia/...`
+— a path that is the tell, since the real env is `orbit_env`, not `.venv`.
+
+`env.sh` prepends the venv's cuDNN to `LD_LIBRARY_PATH` *after* the CUDA module has added the
+system one, so the venv's 9.22 wins. Load them in the other order and TransformerEngine fails at
+import with an undefined symbol in `libcudnn_graph.so.9`.
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+| Symptom | Cause | Fix |
+|---|---|---|
+| `AttributeError: module 'torch' has no attribute '__version__'` | uv cache gone; every package is a dangling symlink resolving as a namespace package | Full rebuild. Not repairable by re-linking — the payload is gone |
+| `No module named pytest.__main__` | Same cause | Same |
+| `Disk quota exceeded` mid-build | Cluster-home enforces a **per-user quota**; `df` shows the shared pool, not your cap | Free space on home, or move `UV_CACHE_DIR` to another persistent flock-capable path |
+| `os error 38` / `ENOSYS` on a lock file | Cache placed on Lustre (`/lustre/fast`) | Move `UV_CACHE_DIR` to home |
+| sgl-kernel build OOMs the node | CUTLASS units take 10–30 GB each under nvcc | Lower `CMAKE_BUILD_PARALLEL_LEVEL`, or raise `ORBIT_SGL_KERNEL_JOB_GB` |
+| "Too many open files" during build | Concurrent package builds each spawning `ninja -j32` | `UV_CONCURRENT_BUILDS=1` (already set by `env.sh`) |
+| sgl-kernel: "kineto not found" | `CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH` missing torch's cmake config | `source env.sh` before `uv sync` |
+| TE import: undefined symbol in `libcudnn_graph.so.9` | System cuDNN from the CUDA module shadows the venv's 9.22 | Source `env.sh` after loading CUDA; do not prepend system cuDNN afterwards |

+# Setup — `feat/mopd`
+
+Environment recipe for this branch (on-policy distillation: sampled-token + full-vocab
+teacher score modes, managed teacher serving, teacher pools, one-trunk PPO).
+
+## Repo pins
+
+| Component | Clone | Branch | Install |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| orbit | `Sphere-AI-Lab/orbit-develop` | `feat/mopd` | `pip install -e .` |
+| SGLang | `Sphere-AI-Lab/sglang-develop` | `feat/dev` | `pip install -e python/` |
+| Megatron-LM | `Sphere-AI-Lab/Megatron-LM` | `orbit-main` | `pip install -e .` (provides `megatron-core`) |
+| Megatron-Bridge | `Sphere-AI-Lab/Megatron-Bridge` | `orbit-main` | `pip install -e .` |
+
+`sglang-develop @ feat/dev` = the v0.5.9 Sphere base plus the tensor hidden-states
+encoding. Plain `main` also works for full-vocab, but teachers fall back to a slow
+nested-JSON encoding (orbit warns once per process).
+
+## Environment
+
+- Python 3.12, torch 2.11 (cu13x), and a CUDA 13.x toolkit on the machine.
+  Export `CUDA_HOME` to it — some extensions (e.g. deep_ep) need it at import time.
+- Install the four repos editable into one venv (order doesn't matter).
+- Ray workers import orbit by path: the launchers prepend the repo checkout to
+  `PYTHONPATH`. If you run trainers by hand, do the same —
+  `export PYTHONPATH=/path/to/orbit-develop` — or a stale editable install wins.
+- `MEGATRON_PATH` (the full Megatron-LM tree, not just core) is auto-inferred from
+  the editable install by `scripts/lib/ray.sh`; export it explicitly to override.
+- Cluster proxies: if `http_proxy` is set, make sure `no_proxy` covers `127.0.0.1`,
+  the hostname, and the node IPs, or SGLang server warmup kills itself through the
+  proxy. The launchers' own preflight is proxy-immune.
+- `WANDB_API_KEY` in the environment if you use `--use-wandb`.
+
+## Full-vocab OPD in one paragraph
+
+The teacher is an SGLang server scored prefill-only with hidden states returned;
+the trainer reconstructs full-vocab teacher logits as `hidden @ lm_head.T`
+(vocab-sharded for TP) and trains the generalized JSD (GKD Eq. 1). Key flags:
+`--teacher-score-mode full_vocab --loss-type opd_jsd_loss --opd-jsd-beta 0.5
+--teacher-hf-checkpoint <teacher HF dir>` (the trainer loads the teacher LM head
+from there; tied-embedding models and teacher-wider-than-student vocab padding are
+handled automatically).
+
+Teacher serving, either way:
+
+- **Managed** (recommended): `--opd-serve-teacher --opd-teacher-num-gpus N`
+  (`--colocate` shares training GPUs). Orbit launches the server with the required
+  flags and publishes the URL itself.
+- **External**: run the server yourself with `--enable-return-hidden-states
+  --disable-radix-cache --chunked-prefill-size -1`, then pass
+  `--opd-teacher-url http://host:port/generate`. Orbit validates the server
+  config at decode time and fails loud if a flag is missing.
+
+Multiple teachers: `--opd-teacher-pool pool.yaml` (kinds `url`/`served`, weights,
+metadata routing) — sampled-token mode only; full-vocab is single-teacher.
+
+## Quickstart
+
+```bash
+# 2-GPU smoke (0.5B student, LoRA, managed 0.5B teacher):
+OPD_SERVE_TEACHER=1 bash examples/on_policy_distillation/run-qwen2_5-0_5b-opd-full-vocab-smoke.sh
+
+# The 7B->0.5B GSM8K science run (4 GPUs; reproduced 48.2% -> 55.0% pass@1):
+bash examples/on_policy_distillation/run-qwen2_5-0_5b-opd-full-vocab-gsm8k.sh
+```
+
+Both are env-tunable (`COLOCATE`, `OPD_TEACHER_NUM_GPUS`, `OPD_JSD_BETA`,
+`GLOBAL_BATCH_SIZE`, and for the science run `LORA_RANK`, `LR`, `EVAL_INTERVAL`);
+see the script headers. `ORBIT_DRY_RUN_ARGV=1` prints the resolved argv without
+touching GPUs. The other launchers in the same directory cover sampled-token MOPD,
+EMA self-teachers, teacher pools, and PPO blends.
+
+## Known limits on these pins
+
+- `--optimizer pion` / `pion_msign` is not available (the kernels live in an
+  unpublished Megatron commit); use the default optimizer.
+- Full-vocab mode requires OPD hooks and is mutually exclusive with
+  advantage-based losses (`compute_advantages_and_returns` must stay off);
+  the arg validation enforces the legal combinations and says why.
+- On 4-GPU nodes, the adapter-critic smokes need `CRITIC_NUM_GPUS_PER_NODE=0`
+  (the GPU budget helper otherwise reserves critic GPUs the node doesn't have).

+# PPO Full-Critic vs Adapter-Critic Comparison
+
+## Objective
+
+Compare Orbit's dense, separate full critic with its in-actor adapter critic without mixing learning-quality and systems-efficiency claims. The benchmark therefore has two explicitly labeled panels:
+
+1. **Controlled learning panel:** hold the actor, rollout capacity, data order, sampling, PPO configuration, and evaluation fixed. Compare policy quality and critic optimization dynamics against rollouts, samples, and generated tokens.
+2. **Fixed-budget panel:** occupy the same four B200 GPUs and allow the adapter configuration to spend its freed critic GPU on rollout. Compare end-to-end throughput, GPU-hours, and time-to-quality.
+
+These panels answer different questions and must be reported separately.
+
+## Model and task
+
+The main benchmark uses:
+
+- Qwen2.5-3B-Instruct in BF16 for both actor and critic trunks.
+- Canonical OFT for the actor in both critic modes.
+- OpenR1-style exact-answer math JSONL for PPO training.
+- Math500 as the primary held-out evaluation set.
+- AIME 2024 and AMC 2023 as secondary evaluation sets.
+- Orbit's deterministic math reward, avoiding a learned reward model or tool-use confounder.
+
+Qwen2.5-0.5B-Instruct and a small GSM8K-style subset are reserved for short launcher smoke tests; their results are not benchmark results.
+
+The validated cluster inputs are:
+
+- HF model: `/fast/groups/ei-slm/hf_models/Qwen2.5-3B-Instruct`;
+- training candidate: `/fast/groups/ei-slm/data/peft_arena_openr1_50k/train.jsonl`;
+- aligned evaluation directory: `/fast/groups/ei-slm/data/peft_arena_eval_math_alignment`.
+
+The training candidate has 49,990 string labels and 10 null labels. A deterministic filtered copy was prepared at `/lustre/fast/fast/lechen/clthegoat/ppo_critic_benchmark_data/openr1_49990/train.jsonl` (49,990 rows; SHA-256 `29608e7b64328af1215dca3971b84dbd2e1c39e0614d076ccf4168e86307ad25`). The aligned evaluation files include the `math_alignment` metadata required for dataset-specific grading; the similarly named `peft_arena_eval_orbit` files do not and should not be substituted.
+
+The validated Megatron `torch_dist` conversion is at `/lustre/fast/fast/lechen/clthegoat/ppo_critic_benchmark_models/Qwen2.5-3B-Instruct_torch_dist` (5.8 GB; iteration 0; 16 distributed shards; filename/size manifest SHA-256 `a2c8e1ad824f1ba6b899e9956c4cb68105cbdec0b2c6ce56d4e11dc12b7938d0`). It was produced from the HF model above with `tools/convert_hf_to_torch_dist.py` in BF16. The launcher's per-run metadata records the live manifest again, so a later artifact change is visible.
+
+## Experimental matrix
+
+| Panel | Critic | Actor GPUs | Critic GPUs | Rollout GPUs | Total occupied GPUs |
+|---|---|---:|---:|---:|---:|
+| Controlled | Full | 1 | 1 | 2 | 4 |
+| Controlled | Adapter | 1 | 0 | 2 | 3 (1 deliberately idle) |
+| Fixed budget | Full | 1 | 1 | 2 | 4 |
+| Fixed budget | Adapter | 1 | 0 | 3 | 4 |
+
+The controlled panel intentionally leaves one B200 idle for the adapter critic. This keeps rollout service capacity identical and isolates sample efficiency. The fixed-budget panel uses all four B200s and measures the practical benefit of removing the separate critic worker.
+
+The two full-critic rows have the same topology and recipe. A completed full-critic run for a seed can therefore serve both panels; the two wrappers remain for a symmetric operator interface and distinct output identities when independent runs are desired.
+
+Run at least three matched seeds for claims about learning. A single seed is acceptable only for launcher qualification and performance debugging.
+
+## Launcher structure
+
+The launcher suite consists of one shared benchmark recipe and four thin entry points:
+
+- `ppo_critic_compare_common.sh`
+- `run-qwen2_5-3b-math-oft-ppo-full-critic-controlled.sh`
+- `run-qwen2_5-3b-math-oft-ppo-adapter-critic-controlled.sh`
+- `run-qwen2_5-3b-math-oft-ppo-full-critic-budget.sh`
+- `run-qwen2_5-3b-math-oft-ppo-adapter-critic-budget.sh`
+
+The wrappers select only `PPO_CRITIC_MODE`, `PPO_COMPARISON_PANEL`, and the approved resource layout. The common recipe owns every scientific hyperparameter. This makes configuration drift visible and keeps each pair mechanically comparable.
+
+All dataset and checkpoint paths are supplied through environment variables. Run identity, output directory, log filename, and W&B group include panel, critic mode, and seed. Environment overrides support small smoke settings without changing the benchmark defaults.
+
+A main launch has the following shape:
+
+```bash
+cd /lustre/fast/fast/lechen/clthegoat/orbit-ppo-critic-benchmark
+export HF_CKPT=/fast/groups/ei-slm/hf_models/Qwen2.5-3B-Instruct
+export MEGATRON_LOAD=/lustre/fast/fast/lechen/clthegoat/ppo_critic_benchmark_models/Qwen2.5-3B-Instruct_torch_dist
+export TRAIN_JSONL=/lustre/fast/fast/lechen/clthegoat/ppo_critic_benchmark_data/openr1_49990/train.jsonl
+export EVAL_ORBIT_DIR=/fast/groups/ei-slm/data/peft_arena_eval_math_alignment
+export SAVE_ROOT=/lustre/fast/fast/lechen/clthegoat/ppo_critic_benchmark_runs
+export SEED=1234
+
+bash examples/high_precision/run-qwen2_5-3b-math-oft-ppo-full-critic-controlled.sh
+```
+
+Select another wrapper to change the declared panel/mode. To resume, provide the same scientific inputs and set `RESUME_DIR` to that run's directory; do not set `SAVE_DIR` or `CRITIC_LOAD` independently.
+
+Smoke mode uses different model arguments, so it must use the 0.5B checkpoints rather than inheriting the 3B exports. The following qualification commands disable evaluation; alternatively, provide a compatible `TEST_JSONL` and omit `DISABLE_EVAL`:
+
+```bash
+cd /lustre/fast/fast/lechen/clthegoat/orbit-ppo-critic-benchmark
+export HF_CKPT=/fast/groups/ei-slm/hf_models/Qwen2.5-0.5B-Instruct
+export MEGATRON_LOAD=/fast/groups/ei-slm/hf_models/Qwen2.5-0.5B-Instruct_torch_dist
+export TRAIN_JSONL=/fast/groups/ei-slm/data/lora_regret/gsm8k_train.jsonl
+export SAVE_ROOT=/lustre/fast/fast/lechen/clthegoat/ppo_critic_benchmark_qualification
+export SEED=260806
+export SMOKE=1
+export DISABLE_EVAL=1
+
+bash examples/high_precision/run-qwen2_5-3b-math-oft-ppo-full-critic-controlled.sh
+bash examples/high_precision/run-qwen2_5-3b-math-oft-ppo-adapter-critic-controlled.sh
+```
+
+## Controlled variables
+
+Both critic modes use the same:
+
+- actor base-checkpoint path and manifest (this recipe has no reference-policy worker);
+- model architecture, BF16 precision, OFT targets, OFT block size, and initialization;
+- prompt file, prompt order, rollout-shuffle seed, and training seed;
+- rollout batch size, samples per prompt, response limit, temperature, sampling parameters, and deterministic inference mode;
+- the one-pass-per-rollout update schedule, global/micro batch settings, KL shaping, GAE, clipping, loss normalization, and optimizer schedule;
+- evaluation datasets, evaluation cadence, save cadence, and total rollout horizon.
+
+Only the critic architecture and the resource differences declared in the matrix may vary. The full critic receives the same base checkpoint explicitly and uses a critic worker. The adapter critic sets `--critic-mode adapter`, uses no separate critic worker, and saves its value adapter/head sidecar alongside the actor checkpoint under the same run directory.
+
+Exact rollout equality is expected only before the learned policies diverge. Across a training run, fairness means matched random streams and prompt schedules, not identical generated trajectories.
+
+## Resume and reproducibility
+
+Benchmark runs save actor/critic parameters, optimizer, scheduler, and dataset state. The native full critic also preserves its RNG state. Orbit's current PEFT actor and adapter-critic sidecars do not preserve RNG state, so a resumed run is not promised to be bitwise identical to an uninterrupted run. A resume must continue into the same run identity and reject an incompatible critic mode, panel, seed, schedule, input fingerprint, or recipe revision unless the operator explicitly starts a new run.
+
+Each launch logs the post-normalization command and a manifest containing the code revision/status/diff, launcher and entry-point hashes, dataset content hashes, model-checkpoint file manifests, reward timeout, Ray/SGLang settings, resources, and schedule. Main runs refuse a dirty or untracked worktree unless the operator explicitly sets `ALLOW_DIRTY_BENCHMARK=1`. The launchers validate non-null prompt/label records and require dataset-specific `math_alignment` metadata in all three main evaluation files.
+
+Each run also uses a stable W&B ID across resumes and a canonical, checkpoint-adjacent writer lock. A SIGKILL or node loss can leave `<SAVE_DIR>.launch-lock`; inspect its `owner.tsv` and verify that no writer remains before manually removing that stale directory. The scripts require existing local checkpoint and dataset paths rather than silently choosing local data. Model directory manifests cover relative filenames and sizes; they are drift detectors, not cryptographic claims about every weight byte.
+
+## Measurements
+
+The initial launcher work uses Orbit's existing metrics:
+
+- reward, raw reward, main-benchmark pass@k, response length, and truncation;
+- on-policy critic value loss, value clipping fraction, critic gradient norm, and learning rate;
+- policy loss, entropy, policy clipping fraction, PPO KL, and log-probability mismatch;
+- critical-path rollout duration and per-rollout-GPU token throughput;
+- externally measured end-to-end wall time and successful checkpoint/resume behavior.
+
+For analysis:
+
+- plot learning quality against rollout number, sampled responses, and generated tokens for the controlled panel;
+- plot quality against wall time and GPU-hours for the fixed-budget panel;
+- multiply the existing per-rollout-GPU throughput by the rollout-GPU count when reporting aggregate rollout throughput;
+- measure process wall time outside Orbit because `progress/elapsed_seconds` excludes startup and restarts after resume;
+- treat critic losses as optimization diagnostics, not held-out critic-quality estimates;
+- do not directly compare the existing `timing_s/actor_train` value across modes, because full critic training overlaps actor training while adapter-critic training is sequential on the actor worker.
+
+Critic explained variance, held-out return RMSE, equivalent per-phase timing, peak per-rank VRAM, utilization, and trainable parameter counts are desirable follow-up instrumentation. They are deliberately outside the first launcher-only change.
+
+## Validation
+
+Before any long benchmark run:
+
+1. Run `bash -n` on the common recipe and all wrappers.
+2. Resolve/dry-run all four commands and verify pairwise argument parity, allowing differences only in identity, critic mode/checkpoint, and declared resources.
+3. Verify required paths, resource counts, unique run identities, and resumable checkpoint flags.
+4. Exercise fresh preparation, incompatible-artifact rejection, and synthetic adapter resume without starting Ray.
+5. Run a two-rollout Qwen2.5-0.5B smoke test for full and adapter critics on the available B200s. Smoke evaluation uses one sample and therefore does not report pass@k; evaluation may be disabled for the shortest hardware qualification.
+6. Inspect logs for finite losses, checkpoint creation, clean process shutdown, and—when enabled—successful evaluation.
+
+Only after these checks should the Qwen2.5-3B multi-seed matrix be launched.
+
+## Non-goals
+
+This change does not alter PPO math, adapter-critic implementation, reward semantics, or production metric instrumentation. It prepares reproducible launchers and validation checks for the comparison.

+# Adapter-First RL: Experiment Program
+
+## Objective
+
+Produce the evidence that Orbit's three adapter-first re-designs — async RL with adapter-only sync, one-trunk PPO, and teacher-as-adapter-slot OPD/MOPD — are (a) algorithmically lossless, (b) systems-cheaper, and (c) enable regimes the full-model baseline cannot enter. Every experiment below is tagged with the claim type it serves:
+
+- **Parity** — the adapter-first variant learns the same (reward vs samples, final benchmark accuracy, critic quality).
+- **Cost collapse** — a resource that scaled with model size now scales with adapter size (sync latency, snapshot memory, critic trunk, teacher hosting).
+- **Unlock** — something the baseline cannot run at all (trillion-scale single-node, mean-teacher RL, PPO where a second trunk does not fit).
+
+Because every adapter-first advantage is O(adapter) vs O(model), experiments either put model size on the x-axis or go to the regime where the baseline is infeasible. Small-scale head-to-heads systematically understate the designs and must be framed as mechanism demonstrations, not as the headline.
+
+## Standing constraints (design around these, do not re-run into them)
+
+1. **The cheap push alone does not speed up sync RL.** Measured in `docs/orbit-adapter-async-db.html`: sync + adapter push has warm `update_weights` ≈ 0.105 s but step time ≈ 8.651 s — the serial loop is the bottleneck. The async claim is therefore about the composition (cheap push × overlap × double-buffered hot swap), never about the push in isolation.
+2. **The adapter critic is ~23% slower per step at 3B** (62.3 s vs 48.1 s; `docs/reports/_src/2026-08-10-ppo-critic-comparison.md`) because its value phases serialize on the actor GPU while the full critic overlaps on its own GPU. The PPO claim is feasibility and GPU-hours (27.2 vs 29.3 at 3B), never step time. Do not compare `timing_s/actor_train` across critic modes.
+3. **The fixed-budget panel premise failed at 3B math**: rollout was not the bottleneck, so the freed critic GPU bought nothing. A re-run is only meaningful on a workload whose profiled rollout fraction exceeds ~60% of step time (P2 pre-check).
+4. **Quantized trunk + adapter critic is rejected** (`orbit/backends/megatron_utils/low_precision_bootstrap.py:151-156`): one-trunk aliasing shares `Parameter`s only; quantized trunk weights/scales live in checkpoint-created buffers. INT4/FP4 one-trunk PPO (P1-INT4, X2-PPO) is blocked until this is lifted; the BF16 feasibility frontier is runnable today.
+5. **`self:*` OPD teachers are incompatible with `--adapter-double-buffer`** (`orbit/utils/arguments.py:1154-1166`), and sglang-local teacher scoring requires OFT (LoRA is single-active per batch). M2 runs trainer-side (`--opd-type megatron`) or single-slot.
+6. **RESOLVED (I-0, 2026-08-17): `--offload-rollout` is structurally inert in async topologies — not a bug.** `needs_offload` is only set for engine groups whose GPUs overlap the Megatron slots, which happens only under `--colocate`; in every `train_async` run the startup offload releases nothing and engines stay resident, so no onload is needed. Documented in `train_async.py` / `orbit/ray/placement_group.py` and pinned by `tests/fast/test_async_offload_noop.py`. A3/A4 are unblocked.
+7. **The double-buffer path currently pauses generation too** (found during I-2): `update_weights` dispatches the pause/flush/continue lifecycle unconditionally for all three sync paths (`update_weight_from_tensor.py`), so today's double-buffer runs report a real nonzero `perf/update_weights_pause_time`. The A1/A2 "no pause under double-buffer" asymmetry is therefore a *hypothesis about a possible optimization* (dropping the lifecycle when staging into an inactive slot), not current behavior — the instrument measures the actual window either way, and whether the lifecycle can be dropped is a candidate follow-up (I-7).
+8. **OFT over NCCL requires double-buffer mode** (Phase-0, 2026-08-21): the engine rejects single-slot OFT stage/activate on the distributed path ("distributed non-double-buffer OFT adapter sync ... not supported; enable --adapter-double-buffer or use the IPC/colocate weight-sync"). Every async OFT run therefore carries `--adapter-double-buffer` (launchers honor `ADAPTER_DOUBLE_BUFFER=1` since `d33c967`). There is **no single-slot async OFT arm**; single-slot exists for LoRA over NCCL and for OFT on the colocated (cpu_gather/IPC) path. A1/A2 arm definitions below are written accordingly.
+9. **Prefill CUDA graphs are off in orbit by default** (Phase-0, 2026-08-21): the sglang v0.5.16 merge enabled them with the `breakable` backend, which refuses memory-saver mode (every `--colocate` engine fails at startup) and whose graph replay does not apply OFT adapters (NaN logits at the first sample; `tc_piecewise` trips torch.compile in the OFT layers). `validate_args` now defaults `--sglang-cuda-graph-backend-prefill disabled` and rejects other backends under OFT (`fe9ab9b`), so every systems arm runs the same engine config — the pre-merge envelope all published numbers were taken in. Making the OFT replay graph-correct is follow-up I-8; until then no arm may opt prefill graphs back on.
+10. **This cluster denies CUDA IPC** (`pidfd_getfd: Operation not permitted` under HTCondor's profile): colocated adapter sync must run with `ORBIT_PEFT_ADAPTER_TRANSPORT=cpu_gather`. `env.sh` sets it, `uv_env_build/activate.sh` does not — harness drivers export it explicitly.

+
+### Task set
+
+Exact-answer math carries every parity and systems claim (A1–A4, P1, P3, M1, M2, X1, X2): OpenR1-style 50k train JSONL, deterministic exact-match reward, Math500 primary and AIME 2024 / AMC 2023 secondary evals. Systems metrics are task-invariant, so a single task everywhere removes a confound, and math is the only task with validated data, a learned-reward-free grader, and launchers at every rung. Deviating from math requires a reason; there are exactly two:
+
+1. **P2 needs a rollout-bound workload**, which single-turn math is not — that is why the 3B budget panel failed its premise. Candidates: tau-bench (multi-turn agentic tool use, Qwen3-4B, PPO launchers for full/LoRA/OFT) and Search-R1 (retrieval-augmented QA with EM reward, Qwen2.5-3B). The P2 pre-check profiles both and keeps whichever crosses the ~60% rollout fraction.
+2. **M3 needs a domain the RL task does not cover**, to measure retention. The SFT suite ships NuminaMath, Magicoder, CommonsenseQA, and ScienceQA launchers: SFT a NuminaMath expert adapter, run blend-RL on OpenR1 math, evaluate Math500 plus a held-out Numina slice; Magicoder is the stretch variant (code expert preserved through math RL).
+
+GSM8K appears only in the full-vocab OPD launcher and stays smoke-tier; the SWE / swe-agent examples are smoke-only and excluded.

+### Recipe gaps
+
+- **R-1** *(Phase 4)* — If full-critic PPO on 8×B200 still fits at 30B-A3B, bracketing the P1 wall needs one new dense config around Qwen2.5-72B. Mechanical, but no launcher exists today.
+- **R-2** *(Phase 1)* — M1's measured table requires porting the five teacher-variant flag blocks from the 0.5B smokes onto the 3B math recipe; the variants currently exist only as smokes.
+- **R-3** *(Phase 3)* — M3 needs a Qwen2.5-3B SFT config by analogy with the existing 0.5B / Llama-8B SFT launchers; SFT and RL launchers do not currently share a model size above 0.5B.
+- **R-4** *(Phase 3)* — M3's mixed-data baseline needs a joint task-reward + SFT-replay recipe, which no current flag provides (`--loss-type` is single-choice; `--use-opd` blends only distillation into advantages). Cheapest mechanical form: interleave `sft_loss` steps on Numina batches with RL steps at a fixed ratio; a `custom_loss` combination is the fallback.

+
+## Experiment specifications
+
+### A1 — Sync-cost scaling curve
+
+One figure, model size on x (0.5B → 3B → 4B → 7B optional → 30B-A3B → largest feasible), three arms: full-model broadcast (the `_send_base_params` path, exercised via a full-FT async recipe), adapter single-slot, adapter double-buffer — where, per constraint 8, the single-slot async arm is **LoRA** and the double-buffer async arm is **OFT** (the OFT single-slot point lives only on the colocated cpu_gather path, reported separately as the `sync` arm). State method and transport per arm in the legend; the cost story is O(adapter) bytes either way, and the LoRA/OFT payloads differ (31.1 MB vs 15.5 MB at 0.5B in qualification) so the two adapter lines are two different adapter sizes, not two transports of one adapter. Series: `update_weights` wall time, payload bytes, and engine pause time (all three paths currently dispatch the pause lifecycle — constraint 7 — so pause time is a measured series per arm, not an assumed zero for double-buffer). Derive one more column: **achieved fraction of link bandwidth** (payload bytes / wall time vs the nominal interconnect) — if the full-model broadcast runs near wire speed, the O(model)-bytes cost is physics and the arm cannot be dismissed as an unoptimized baseline; if it runs far below, say so and the honest comparison is bytes, not seconds. Expected shape: full-model grows linearly toward tens of seconds; adapter flat ≈ 0.1 s. Timing comes from existing metrics; payload bytes and pause time need I-2. The comparison harness runs paired async single-slot vs double-buffer today and needs a full-FT arm (I-3). Record the **PEFT transport per point**: this cluster's `env.sh` defaults `ORBIT_PEFT_ADAPTER_TRANSPORT=cpu_gather` (the B200 CUDA-IPC workaround), so colocated points measure CPU-gather rather than CUDA-IPC, while async points are NCCL regardless — without a transport column the colocated numbers do not compare across machines. Memory series can reuse the allocator-counter reporting merged in on 2026-08-17. At quantized bases the full-model arm is not even well-defined without requantization — state that in the figure caption rather than trying to measure it.
+
+### A2 — Rollout-throughput timeline across a weight update
+
+Rollout tokens/s in ~100 ms bins over a window containing 2–3 publications, one trace per arm (full-model, single-slot, double-buffer) — with the constraint-8 assignment: single-slot = LoRA async, double-buffer = OFT async; if the figure must hold the adapter method fixed, run both LoRA arms (LoRA supports both modes over NCCL) and note it. This is the mechanism figure: the double-buffer trace is expected to be the shallowest because the broadcast lands in the inactive slot while the active slot serves — though the pause lifecycle currently still runs in all three paths (constraint 7), so the trace measures rather than assumes the asymmetry, quantifies the I-7 prize, and explains the measured +50.2% tok/GPU/s. Needs I-1 (done). Qwen3-4B, 4+4 layout, short run — cheap enough to iterate on until the figure is clean.
+
+### A3 — Async parity, speedup, and attribution
+
+Three arms, ≥3 seeds each: sync OFT (`run-qwen3-4b-instruct-2507-bf16-math-oft.sh`), async OFT + double-buffer (`run-qwen3-4b-instruct-2507-bf16-math-oft-async.sh`, `ADAPTER_DOUBLE_BUFFER=1`), and **async full-FT** (`run-qwen3-4b-instruct-2507-bf16-math-fullft-async.sh`, the I-3 launcher). The third arm exists because constraint 1 makes the two-arm version attackable: sync→async overlap is a speedup any full-model async system also gets, so a sync-OFT vs async-OFT comparison cannot attribute anything to adapters. With three arms the wall-clock figure decomposes into sync→async-fullFT (overlap, not novel) and async-fullFT→async-OFT (the adapter contribution: pause window + payload), and the reward-vs-samples figure gains the program's only matched-pipeline full-FT quality anchor — everywhere else parity is adapter-vs-adapter, and outsourcing the adapter-vs-full-FT question entirely to the `lora_regret` e4 campaign (≤8B, MATH+GSM8K mix, different pipeline) is a cross-reference, not a control. **The full-FT arm must get its own learning rate** — the `lora_regret` sweeps put the full-FT and adapter optima about a decade apart, so reusing the OFT LR would manufacture a strawman; seed the full-FT LR from the e4 full-FT window and state it in the figure.
+
+Two figures from the same runs: reward vs samples (adapter arms should coincide within the pre-registered margin; the full-FT arm anchors quality — the async off-policy guard enforces a correction; report which one is active) and reward vs wall-clock (adapter async expected ≈3.4× left of sync per the measured 8.651 → 2.531 s/step). State the staleness regime explicitly: `train_async`'s one-step overlap bounds staleness at one publication by construction (there is no `fully_async/staleness/*` metric in this mode because there is nothing to measure), so "async but off-policy by at most one version" is a structural statement in the figure caption, and the measured staleness distributions belong to A4. Report the noise floor across seeds; a parity claim without it is unfalsifiable. Never merge the two figures. Note: the held-out eval-NLL hook is deliberately unavailable here — `train_async.py` rejects `--eval-nll-data` because the overlap loop makes "weights at the moment of measurement" ill-defined — so A3's parity evidence stays reward curves plus benchmark evals.
+
+### A4 — Staleness ablation in fully-async mode
+
+`run-qwen3-4b-instruct-2507-bf16-math-oft-fully-async.sh` with `--max-weight-staleness` ∈ {1, 2, 4, unset}. Plot final reward, throughput, `fully_async/staleness/{mean,max}`, and `recycled_stale_groups`. The point: per-turn `adapter_version` stamping (enforced equal to `weight_version` at three layers) is what makes principled staleness control possible; the ablation shows the throughput/quality dial actually working. Secondary table: `--keep-old-actor` snapshot cost (time + bytes) under adapter state vs full-model backup, vs model size — one line of evidence per size point, harvestable from A1 runs.
+
+### P1 — PPO feasibility frontier
+
+Fixed hardware (8 B200), find the largest model where PPO-with-critic runs per mode. Full critic needs a second trunk + fp32 masters + Adam on its own GPUs; adapter critic adds ~0 trunk bytes (measured 44.6 GB vs 48.8 GB actor-alone at 3B). **The headline deliverable is the measured-bytes table** (critic trunk + fp32 masters + optimizer state per mode, from the allocator counters), with the "wall" bar chart as its illustration — a feasibility bar alone invites "you just didn't offload the critic," whereas O(model) measured bytes vs ~0 is independent of any offload policy. The wall itself is defined at matched parallelism with no CPU offload of trainable state, stated in the caption; every cell states its offload policy. **New sub-arm (merged 2026-08-17): adapter critic ± frozen-base offload** — `offload_megatron_frozen_base_to_cpu` (modes auto/flat/tms) is gated on PEFT being active, so only the adapter arm can offload its trunk during training phases; this pushes the adapter arm's wall further out and is itself an adapter-first unlock (full FT has no frozen parameters to offload). Every memory number must state the offload mode. Run BF16 now (bracket the wall with e.g. 14B/32B/72B dense); the INT4 trillion-scale version waits on constraint 4. Each point needs only a few steps to demonstrate fit + a stable loss, not a full training run. Memory series reuse the merged-in allocator counters.
+
+### P2 — Fixed-budget panel, rollout-bound workload
+
+Pre-check first, two conditions, both pre-registered: (i) profile rollout fraction of step time on the tau-bench and search-r1 PPO recipes and require it to exceed ~60%; (ii) run a 2-vs-3 rollout-GPU throughput probe and require rollout throughput to actually scale with the added GPU — a high rollout fraction whose bottleneck is env stepping (tau-bench tool calls, retrieval latency) would make the freed GPU worthless and the panel would fail its premise a second time. Proceed only where both hold. Then the budget layout from the 2026-08-06 design: full critic (N−1 rollout GPUs) vs adapter critic (N rollout GPUs) at equal total GPUs. Headline metric: GPU-hours to target reward. This directly repairs the failed 3B-math premise by choosing a workload where the freed GPU buys throughput.
+
+### P3 — Critic parity with error bars
+
+Extend the completed single-seed controlled panel (Math500 52.27±1.00 vs 52.33±1.26) to 3 seeds on the existing wrappers, and add critic explained variance (I-4) to show the aliased-trunk critic learns real values. Keep the head-critic collapse as the published negative control: value head alone fails, so the adapter is the minimal sufficient critic capacity. Optionally add one sparse/long-horizon task where PPO beats GRPO; if PPO never beats GRPO in the suite, say so and frame the critic work as infrastructure for when it does.
+
+### M1 — Teacher-cost collapse table
+
+Fixed student/task (0.5B–3B), one row per teacher realization: external server (`--opd-teacher-url`, +N GPUs), `load:` second Megatron model, `adapter:<path>` swap, `base` with KL on (aliases the ref forward — zero extra forwards), `self:ema`. Columns: extra GPUs, extra memory, extra forwards/step, step time. All arms have smoke launchers under `examples/on_policy_distillation/` (the `adapter:` row's was added 2026-08-19; the rest predate this program). Correctness leg (I-5): identical `teacher_log_probs` on a fixed batch across the `alias_ref`, `adapter_off`, and external-URL plans, within numerical tolerance — this is what licenses the word "free." **Scope the claim explicitly: the collapse applies to same-trunk teachers** (self, EMA, expert adapters, the frozen base) — a larger cross-model teacher cannot be an adapter slot and still needs a server, so the table's claim is "same-trunk teacher hosting collapses," never "teacher hosting is free" unqualified.
+
+### M2 — Mean-teacher RL
+
+The EMA self-teacher is the variant whose cost collapses hardest: an EMA teacher of a full model is a second model copy — expensive, not impossible, and the framing must say so — while an EMA of an adapter is megabytes of FP32. Arms: RL-only; RL + `self:ema` blend at 2–3 `--opd-ema-decay` values; RL + `self:lag` (separates "averaging" from "delay"). Hypothesis: reduced entropy collapse, better pass@1 with pass@k retained. Runs trainer-side (`--opd-type megatron`) per constraint 5. Honest framing if neutral: the capability costs a flag, and M1 still stands.
+
+### M3 — Expert-adapter distillation during RL
+
+Train an SFT expert adapter (`examples/sft/`), then blend-mode RL with `--opd-teacher adapter:<expert>`: task reward + distillation toward the expert in one job, `--custom-rm-path` free for the real reward (impossible in the external-URL mode, which must hijack the reward hook). Baselines: sequential SFT→RL, RL-only, and **mixed-data RL** — task reward on math plus an SFT loss on replayed Numina data, no distillation — all at matched total compute. The mixed-data arm is the first alternative a reviewer proposes ("why distill from an adapter instead of replaying the data?"), so its absence would be read as dodging; if it ties the distillation arm, say so and the claim falls back to convenience (no data pipeline in the RL job), which is still real. Orbit has no joint policy+SFT loss today — `--loss-type` is single-choice and `--use-opd` blends only a distillation term into advantages — so this arm needs R-4 (interleaved `sft_loss` steps on replay batches, or a `custom_loss` combination). Metrics: final task accuracy + retention of the expert's domain (Numina holdout accuracy and NLL).
+
+### X1 — Precision-gap experiment
+
+A 2×2 design — {adapter, full-FT} × {train at deploy precision, train BF16 then quantize} — with one cell structurally empty: (a) adapter RL against the FP8/INT4 base, deployed as-is; (b) full-FT RL in BF16, then quantize; (c) adapter RL in BF16, then quantize — **reuses A3's sync-OFT checkpoints, so its marginal cost is PTQ + eval only**; (d) full-FT at deploy precision does not exist, which is the unlock and is stated as an empty cell, not omitted. Without (c) the two-arm version confounds adapter-vs-full-FT with precision; (c) separates "training at deploy precision" from "adapter vs full". **Name the PTQ recipe up front** — the same calibrated pipeline that produced the low-precision base checkpoints — and tune it in good faith; an untuned quantize step makes arm (b) a strawman and the whole figure dismissible. Measure train↔rollout logprob abs-diff during training (existing parity tooling) and final deployed accuracy. Arm (b) pays a requantization tax arm (a) structurally cannot pay; arm (a) at trillion scale has no baseline at all. Start at Qwen3-4B FP8 where all arms are cheap; the figure generalizes upward by the A1 argument.
+
+### X2 — Trillion-scale single-node flagship
+
+One end-to-end run: Kimi-K2.6 or DSV4 at INT4/FP4 on a single 8×B200 node, async + double-buffer, optionally a `base` free-teacher KL blend. Deliverables: reward curve, step-time breakdown, memory breakdown table where every baseline column reads "multi-node, high precision, N× hardware." GRPO-style estimator now; the PPO variant follows constraint 4. This is the existence proof that makes A1/P1's extrapolations land.
+
+## Instrumentation and engineering pre-work
+
+All of I-0 through I-5 landed on `orbit-main` on 2026-08-17 (five `instr/*` branches, merged after a green fast suite).
+
+- **I-0 — DONE.** Resolved as not-a-bug (see constraint 6); comments + 9 pinning tests in `tests/fast/test_async_offload_noop.py`.
+- **I-1 — DONE.** `tools/rollout_timeline/`: standalone `probe.py` polling SGLang's `sglang:realtime_tokens_total{mode="decode"}` counter from `/metrics` (engines need `--enable-metrics`; `/server_info` gauge as fallback), pure `binning.py` (counter resets and scrape gaps handled; a scrape gap during an update is itself signal), and trainer-side update markers gated on `ORBIT_TIMELINE_EVENTS_FILE`.
+- **I-2 — DONE.** New per-update metrics through the existing perf flow: `perf/update_weights_payload_bytes`, `perf/update_weights_payload_num_tensors`, `perf/update_weights_num_chunks`, `perf/update_weights_pause_time` (pause dispatch → continue completion; see constraint 7 for the double-buffer finding). Implemented in `update_weight/sync_metrics.py` + transport send sites.
+- **I-3 — DONE.** `tools/adapter_runtime_compare/` arms are now a registry; opt-in `async_fullft` arm (via `--modes`) plus the mechanical launcher `run-qwen3-4b-instruct-2507-bf16-math-fullft-async.sh`. Default arm selection unchanged (regression-tested).
+- **I-4 — DONE.** `value_explained_var` computed exactly from five SUM-reduced token-level sufficient statistics (`value_ev/*`), finalized in `aggregate_train_losses`; NaN/degenerate-guarded; identical across critic modes.
+- **I-5 — DONE.** `orbit/utils/logprob_compare.py` (stdlib-only comparison utility, shared with the future GPU/SGLang leg) + `tests/fast/test_opd_teacher_equivalence.py` pinning: `alias_ref` returns the ref list by identity with no forward run, `adapter_off` == adapter-free twin bitwise, `adapter_swap` == directly-built teacher module bitwise with exact restore — both through the real actor dispatch.
+- **I-6** *(optional, unblocks P1-INT4 and X2-PPO)* — Extend one-trunk aliasing to quantized trunk buffers, or a buffer-sharing equivalent. Not started.
+- **I-7** *(new, from constraint 7)* — Investigate dropping the pause/flush/continue lifecycle for the double-buffer path; the pause-time metric quantifies the prize first.
+
+### Capabilities merged in from origin (2026-08-17, merge `a031b3c`) — reuse, do not rebuild
+
+- **Frozen-base offload** (`offload_megatron_frozen_base_to_cpu`, PEFT-gated) — the P1 sub-arm above.
+- **Held-out eval-NLL hook** (`--eval-nll-data`, `train.py` only; explicitly rejected in `train_async.py`) — cheap secondary learning-quality metric for the sync-driver experiments (P3, M2, M3, X1).
+- **Allocator counters + per-arm W&B run naming** — the memory-series instrumentation A1/P1 planned to add; already present.
+- **`ORBIT_PEFT_ADAPTER_TRANSPORT=cpu_gather` cluster default** in `env.sh` — colocated adapter sync routes over CPU-gather on B200; A1 records transport per point.
+- **`tools/lora_regret/` campaign harness** — measures adapter-vs-full-FT learning quality with NLL probes; overlaps this program's parity tier at the algorithmic level. Cross-reference its results instead of re-measuring that question, and borrow its arms/sweep/analyze structure for the P2/P3 panels where it fits.
+
+## Methodology standards
+
+- ≥3 matched seeds for any learning-quality claim; single seeds only for qualification and systems timing. Always report the seed noise floor next to the effect size.
+- **Every parity claim pre-registers an absolute equivalence margin before launch** (anchor: the completed 3B benchmark's observed ±1.00–1.26 eval CIs on Math500), and reports the effect with both seed-σ and eval CI against that margin. Parity means "effect inside the margin," equivalence-test style; "the curves coincide" with a post-hoc noise floor is not a decision rule — with 3 seeds, σ estimated after the fact cannot carry a claim.
+- **Every adapter-sync run logs the train↔rollout logprob abs-diff** (existing parity tooling) as a standing guard metric. This repo has already shipped one silent adapter-sync corruption (the CanonicalOFT streamed-loader substring match that dropped every R update); the fast path is only evidence if each run carries proof it is also the correct path.
+- Parity claims are per-task: math carries them, and the P2 workload is the program's only generality point. Say this in the paper rather than letting a reviewer discover it.
+- Reward-vs-samples and reward-vs-wall-clock are separate figures answering separate questions; never conflate them (the standard async-RL reviewer objection).
+- Controlled vs fixed-budget panels stay separate, as in the 2026-08-06 design.
+- Headline efficiency metric is GPU-hours to target quality; step time is a diagnostic, not a claim.
+- Pre-register the P2 bottleneck profile before choosing its workload.
+- Reuse the validated 3B assets (model conversion, filtered OpenR1 data, aligned Math500/AIME/AMC evals) recorded in `2026-08-06-ppo-critic-comparison-design.md` wherever the model scale permits.
+- Sync-driver experiments (P3, M2, M3, X1) additionally log held-out eval-NLL (`--eval-nll-data`) as a secondary learning-quality metric; async experiments cannot (by design — see A3 note) and claim parity on reward/benchmarks only.
+- Systems figures state the active PEFT transport (NCCL / CUDA-IPC / cpu_gather) alongside every latency or pause measurement.
+
+## Phasing
+
+- **Phase 0** — I-0 through I-5 (code work DONE 2026-08-17). 0.5B qualification DONE 2026-08-21 on 4×B200 — ledger, eleven defects and their fixes in `docs/reports/_src/2026-08-21-phase0-qualification.md` (constraints 8–10 came out of it). Remaining: the 8-GPU pieces (4B fully-async, harness `q3_4b`/`q3_30b`) once the 4B/30B torch_dist paths are known.
+- **Phase 1** — A1, A2, M1 (cheap, headline systems figures; no long training).
+- **Phase 2** — A3, A4; P2 pre-check then P2; P3 seed extension.
+- **Phase 3** — X1, M2, M3.
+- **Phase 4** — P1 frontier (BF16 now, INT4 after I-6), X2 flagship.

+<p>The complete short-horizon panel gives a mixed answer to the LoRA-without-regret
+hypothesis. With learning rate tuned separately, LoRA r16 reaches <strong>0.2758</strong> on Math,
+slightly above FullFT's <strong>0.2660</strong>. On GSM8K, FullFT reaches <strong>0.7870</strong> while the best
+LoRA endpoint is <strong>0.7551</strong>. That LoRA endpoint is length-degenerate, however; the best
+non-runaway LoRA endpoint is r256 at <strong>0.7415</strong>.</p>

+1,319; Math trains on 7,498 and evaluates on 5,000. Dataset selection is the only
+substantive configuration difference between paired GSM8K and Math scripts.</p>
+<ul><li><code>NUM_ROLLOUT=150</code>: 150 rollout batches and 150 optimizer updates; ledgers store the<p>final zero-based step as <code>149</code>.</p></li><li><code>GLOBAL_BATCH_SIZE=1024</code>: one on-policy update per batch of 32 prompts × 32 samples.</li><li>GRPO-style group-mean centering without standard-deviation normalization.</li><li>PPO clipping disabled with <code>EPS_CLIP=EPS_CLIP_HIGH=1e9</code>.</li><li><code>EVAL_INTERVAL=25</code>: eval before training and after rollouts 24, 49, 74, 99, 124,<p>and 149.</p></li><li>No checkpoints (<code>SAVE_INTERVAL</code> empty); W&amp;B writes offline and syncs from a login<p>host to entity <code>zeju-qiu</code>.</p></li><li>Every arm uses eight GPUs.

+<p>LoRA uses <code>lora_alpha=32</code> at every rank. Its adapter scaling α/r is therefore 32, 2,
+and 0.125 for r1, r16, and r256. Rank and nominal learning rate are not independent
+axes in this panel: a fixed nominal LR produces a 256× spread in adapter scaling.</p>

+<p>FullFT's optimum is bracketed: 0.7870 at 7e-07 and 0.7854 at 2e-06 form a broad top,
+then accuracy falls to 0.5459 at 4e-06 and zero at 1e-05. All three LoRA ranks peak
+at 3e-05. LR0 confirms that 2e-06 is an under-training boundary, especially as rank
+increases: r1/r16/r256 finish at 0.2858/0.1175/0.0538 and are still rising at the end.</p>
+<p>The high-LR endpoint can hide a broken policy. LoRA r16 at 3e-05, the headline best,
+reaches 0.7551 while its response length has already saturated near the 2,048-token
+cap. At 2e-04, r16 and r256 still score 0.6217 and 0.6892 with 100% truncation. These
+are gradeable answers followed by runaway text, not healthy policies. At 4e-04 and

+<p>Math brackets the same FullFT optimum at 7e-07, but its LoRA optimum moves with rank:
+r1 prefers 1e-05, r16 prefers 3e-05, and r256 prefers 7e-05. That ordered shift is
+consistent with fixed α/r making the effective update smaller as rank increases.</p>
+<p>The r1 1e-05 arm is not collapsed: its final complete segment rises
+0.0590 → 0.0960 → 0.1680 → 0.1888 → 0.2202 → 0.2366 → 0.2536. The same file
+contains a short earlier attempt ending at rollout 24; the successful ledger row and
+last complete log segment identify the finished run. In contrast, r1 at 3e-05 reaches
+0.2124 at rollout 74, then falls to 0.0006 at 99 and zero thereafter as truncation

+<h3 id="math-lr7-was-deliberately-stopped-after-the-result-was-already-decisive">Math LR7 was deliberately stopped after the result was already decisive<a class="anchor" href="#math-lr7-was-deliberately-stopped-after-the-result-was-already-decisive" aria-hidden="true">#</a></h3>
+<p>The Math LoRA r16 <code>1e-03</code> arm was stopped around rollout 50/150. Its evaluations at
+rollouts 24 and 49 were both zero with mean response length 2,048 and 100% truncation.
+The r256 <code>1e-03</code> arm was not launched. Their absence from the successful ledger is
+intentional; they are not scheduler failures and should not be silently counted as
+unfinished successes.</p>
+<h3 id="collapse-means-runaway-length-not-merely-a-low-endpoint">Collapse means runaway length, not merely a low endpoint<a class="anchor" href="#collapse-means-runaway-length-not-merely-a-low-endpoint" aria-hidden="true">#</a></h3>
+<p>Across both datasets, unstable arms drive generations to the 2,048-token cap. A
+truncated response often loses its final <code>\boxed{}</code> answer and grades zero. Sometimes
+the box appears before repeated text, so accuracy remains nonzero even at 100%
+truncation. This is why accuracy alone cannot label a high-LR arm healthy.</p>
+<h3 id="ten-stale-gsm8k-failures-remain-in-the-raw-ledgers">Ten stale GSM8K failures remain in the raw ledgers<a class="anchor" href="#ten-stale-gsm8k-failures-remain-in-the-raw-ledgers" aria-hidden="true">#</a></h3>
+<p>The GSM8K ledgers contain ten <code>failed</code> rows in addition to the 31 unique successful
+rows: three in lr1, two each in lr2 and lr3, and one each in lr5–lr7. Some use the
+superseded FullFT grid; others are earlier attempts with no post-training evaluation.
+They do not conflict with any successful endpoint. The report filters <code>status == "ok"</code>
+and keeps failed history separate.</p>
+<p>Several launcher logs also contain appended partial attempts before the final complete
+segment. The endpoint matrices come from unique successful ledger rows; trajectory
+tables use the last complete 0–149 segment rather than concatenating attempts.</p>
+<h3 id="wandb-upload-is-not-completion-evidence">WandB upload is not completion evidence<a class="anchor" href="#wandb-upload-is-not-completion-evidence" aria-hidden="true">#</a></h3>
+<p>Training ran with <code>WANDB_MODE=offline</code>, targeting the personal entity <code>zeju-qiu</code> during
+login-node synchronization. This report does not treat W&amp;B availability as evidence
+that training finished: completion is established by the successful ledger rows and
+the final rollout-149 evals. Final server-side synchronization was not re-audited here.</p>
+<h2 id="interpretation">Interpretation<a class="anchor" href="#interpretation" aria-hidden="true">#</a></h2>
+<ol><li><strong>Tuning matters by roughly two orders of magnitude.</strong> Both datasets choose<p>7e-07 for FullFT and 3e-05 for the best r16 LoRA arm, a 42.9× LR ratio. Comparing
+the methods at one shared LR would be badly confounded.</p></li><li><strong>The stable LR window is finite and now bracketed.</strong> Both FullFT curves peak at<p>7e-07; both LoRA panels deteriorate above the 1e-05–7e-05 region. The added LR0
+point verifies the low side rather than improving the optimum.</p></li><li><strong>Rank independence is dataset-dependent at this budget.</strong> GSM8K's tuned LoRA<p>endpoints span 0.7149–0.7551. Math spans 0.2378–0.2758 and selects a different LR
+per rank. Fixed α/r and only 150 updates are plausible contributors, but the sweep
+does not isolate them.</p></li><li><strong>Endpoint accuracy overstates some arms.</strong> GSM8K r16/r256 at 2e-04 and Math r16<p>at 7e-05 retain high accuracy in runaway-length states. A parity claim should use
+both answer accuracy and response-health metrics.</p></li><li><strong>The best defensible result is narrower than the headline.</strong> Math r16 matches<p>FullFT under the measured protocol. GSM8K healthy LoRA comes within 0.0455 of
+FullFT. The broader statement that all three LoRA ranks match FullFT is not supported
+by this single-seed, 150-update panel.</p></li></ol>
+<h2 id="limitations-and-next-steps">Limitations and next steps<a class="anchor" href="#limitations-and-next-steps" aria-hidden="true">#</a></h2>
+<ul><li>Run multiple seeds at the stable optima: FullFT 7e-07; GSM8K LoRA 3e-05; Math<p>LoRA r1/r16/r256 at 1e-05/3e-05/7e-05.</p></li><li>Add an eval stop condition or treat response length and truncation as first-class<p>acceptance metrics so a gradeable box followed by 2,000 repeated tokens cannot look
+healthy.</p></li><li>Extend selected low-LR arms to 234 rollouts (one dataset epoch) to distinguish slow<p>learning from a genuinely poor LR, especially LR0 r16/r256.</p></li><li>Test an α schedule that holds α/r constant across ranks, or retune each rank on a<p>denser local grid, before interpreting rank as adapter capacity.</p></li><li>Check final W&amp;B synchronization separately if the online dashboard is needed; the<p>durable result record is the ledger-backed report, not the dashboard state.</p></li><li>No checkpoints were written, so these exact trained policies cannot be re-evaluated<p>under a new grader or generation policy.</p></li></ul>

+<p>The final LR0 allocations recovered from Condor history were <code>17448192.0</code> and
+<code>17448193.0</code>; their execution nodes were <code>i101</code> and <code>i108</code>. Earlier interactive job

+<h2 id="question">Question<a class="anchor" href="#question" aria-hidden="true">#</a></h2>
+<p>Orbit's PPO offers two critics: a <strong>full critic</strong> (a second 3B trunk + value head on its
+own GPU) and an <strong>adapter critic</strong> (a value head + OFT adapter sharing the actor's frozen
+trunk, one-trunk PPO). The <a href="../plans/2026-08-06-ppo-critic-comparison-design.md">design doc</a>
+asks two separately-reported questions: at <em>matched rollout capacity</em>, do they learn
+equally well (controlled panel)? And at <em>matched hardware</em>, which is cheaper end-to-end
+(fixed-budget panel)?</p>
+<p>A follow-up question arose from the results: the initial numbers made PPO look worse than
+GRPO, so a 2×2 attribution matrix ({OFT, full-FT} × {PPO, GRPO}) and an OFT actor-LR probe
+were run to locate the real bottleneck.</p>

+<p>The final-gate spread (50.85 vs 53.55) is single-gate noise: per-gate sd is 1.0–1.4
+points because eval samples 4 responses per prompt at temperature 1.0. Trajectories
+differ in shape — full critic peaks earlier (54.1 at r174) and drifts back; the adapter

+<p><strong>The fixed-budget panel's premise failed</strong>: re-investing the freed critic GPU into a
+third rollout engine bought 2% (64.4 → 63.1 s/rollout) because training, not generation,
+dominates the step (~23 s generate-wait vs ~31 s train). The freed GPU is better spent on
+a different job.</p>
+<p><strong>Memory: the adapter's structural win.</strong> The full critic occupies an entire extra B200
+with a second 3B trunk + fp32 master weights + Adam states (actor-scale: the actor
+measured 48.8 GB peak-reserved at sync points; the critic full-finetunes the same
+architecture). The adapter critic adds only a value head + OFT adapter on the shared
+frozen trunk: actor-GPU footprint 44.6 GB, essentially unchanged. Caveat: these are
+weight-sync-time snapshots (<code>log_device_memory_used</code> off; per-step peaks not
+instrumented — listed as follow-up in the design doc). The ~45–50 GB + one-GPU
+structural difference does not hinge on snapshot timing.</p>

+<p><strong>Capacity is worth ~6–8 points under either estimator; the estimator is worth ±1.5 and
+flips sign.</strong> Untuned PPO posts the best number of the whole study once given full
+weights. The corroborating signature: OFT runs' pass@4 stays flat (~74) while full-FT
+pass@4 rises — the adapter sharpens sampling toward known solutions; full FT finds new
+ones. GRPO's remaining edge is cost: no critic at all → ~28 s/rollout, 17.8 GPU-h
+(full-FT GRPO) vs ~36 s/rollout with the overlapped critic (full-FT PPO).</p>
+<p><strong>OFT actor-LR probe</strong> (full-critic PPO, all else fixed): lr 1e-5 recovers about 4 of the
+~7 missing points at the cost of 2× gate volatility; 3e-6 sits between (partial — run died
+at r403, see incidents).</p>

+timeouts scored as wrong).

+<p><strong>Verdict: LR buys ~+1.5–2 points and doubles gate volatility (sd 1.3 → ~2.1);
+block-size capacity buys nothing; the ~5-point gap to full-FT is structural.</strong>
+5e-6 is already past the useful range. pass@4 stays at the base model's ~74 in
+every cell — the adapter recipe still only sharpens sampling toward already-known
+solutions, which is why no step-size/capacity knob closes the gap. (The earlier
+full-critic LR probes read ~56.5 at partial horizon; with full 500-rollout
+horizons and the adapter critic, the honest stable estimate is ~54.) Remaining
+untried levers — a KL anchor to tame the volatility, larger adapter surface via
+target modules — have diminishing prospects given the flat pass@4.</p>
+<h2 id="follow-up-2---critic-mode-head-detached-trunk-critic-full-ft-actor-negative-result">Follow-up 2 — <code>--critic-mode head</code> (detached-trunk critic + full-FT actor): negative result<a class="anchor" href="#follow-up-2---critic-mode-head-detached-trunk-critic-full-ft-actor-negative-result" aria-hidden="true">#</a></h2>
+<p>To combine full-FT capacity with the adapter critic's zero-memory profile, a new
+<code>--critic-mode head</code> was implemented (branch <code>feat/detached-trunk-head-critic</code>,
+TDD, 83 CPU tests + 0.5B GPU smoke): a value-head-only critic whose frozen
+critic-side trunk view aliases the actor's storage — freeze applied inside the
+model provider, before DDP wrap, so a value backward provably produces no trunk
+gradients even while the actor full-finetunes the same bytes.</p>
+<p>The mechanics work; <strong>the algorithm does not</strong>: at 3B benchmark settings the run
+peaked at 53.5 (r24), decayed from ~r100, and collapsed to ~1.4 by r250
+(fig. above, right). Critic value loss never converged — stuck at 2–4 versus the
+full critic's 0.13–0.18, a ~20× gap — so advantages were noise, and with no KL
+anchor the policy walked into degenerate max-length outputs (reward → 0,
+response length → the 1024 cap). Conclusion: <strong>a single linear head on detached,
+drifting features cannot supply usable values at this scale</strong>; the full critic's
+dedicated (or the adapter critic's frozen-trunk) representation is load-bearing.
+Untried variants: deeper MLP head, higher critic LR / longer critic-only warmup,
+KL anchor. For full-FT actors, GRPO (no critic, 58.64, cheapest) remains the
+recommended default.</p>
+<h2 id="incidents-continued">Incidents, continued<a class="anchor" href="#incidents-continued" aria-hidden="true">#</a></h2>
+<ul><li><strong>Silent engine deaths became the dominant operational cost</strong>: 6 incidents<p>across 6 distinct machines (i305, i301, i403, i303, i401, +1), all the same
+signature — sglang engine stops responding mid-generation, zero engine-side
+trace, condor reports normal termination — destroying entire runs under the
+no-checkpoint policy (two full sweep attempts lost). Cause still unidentified.
+Mitigation queued for any further long runs: adapter-run sidecar checkpoints
+are only ~370 MB, so <code>SAVE_INTERVAL=100</code> on group storage plus resume plumbing
+makes runs death-tolerant at negligible cost.</p></li></ul>

+<p>A merge moved the stack from the sglang v0.5.9 line (<code>b52394d22</code>, the build every
+published E4 number was produced on, venv <code>orbit_env</code>) to the v0.5.16 line
+(<code>05cd76b4d</code>, venv <code>orbit_env_v2</code>), and moved orbit itself by 216 commits from the
+E4 report's provenance commit <code>46c8e0f6</code> (+4,490/−291 lines in
+<code>backends/megatron_utils</code> alone). The question: does the merged stack produce the
+same numbers?</p>
+<p>Unseeded sampling makes end-to-end RL runs incomparable (measured earlier: 0/32
+identical completions at fixed seed), so the program decomposed into pieces that
+are deterministic by construction:</p>
+<ol><li><strong>Stage A</strong> — inference forward: same weights, greedy decoding, deterministic<p>inference mode, pinned attention backend, both builds on one node.</p></li><li><strong>Backend × adapter × GPU matrix</strong> — the same probe over<p>{H100, B200} × {fa3, triton, flashinfer} × {base, LoRA r16, OFT b128}.</p></li><li><strong>Stage B</strong> — trainer: one frozen rollout batch replayed through the full E4<p>launcher on both stacks via orbit's own <code>--load-debug-rollout-data</code> /
+<code>--debug-train-only</code> seam (zero sglang engines, one GRPO step, 1×H100,
+TP1/DP1), comparing per-token logprobs, advantages, grad norm, repeated for a
+nondeterminism envelope.</p></li></ol>

+(</code>GenerateReqInput.<strong>getitem</strong>` memoizes sub-objects before resolution runs).
+OFT served the identity slot: disk-loaded adapters silently returned

+adapter and base requests shared radix keys; base requests prefix-matched
+adapter-computed KV (base greedy ≡ adapter output on 14/16 prompts, 0/16 with
+the cache disabled). RL was protected only because orbit force-disables the
+radix cache for PEFT rollout engines. Verified with the cache on.</p></li><li><strong>orbit <code>89ea48c</code> + <code>badab95</code></strong> — canonical OFT builds one rotation per fused<p><strong>output slice</strong> (qkv=3, fc1=2), not per module; the counter undercounted
+all-modules OFT by <strong>1.46×</strong> (b128: recorded 54,099,968, actual 79,069,184).
+This fed <code>matched_ratio</code>/<code>oft_matched_lora_rank</code>, so "parameter-matched"
+OFT/LoRA pairs handed OFT ~46% extra capacity. Consequences now pinned in
+tests: E4's b128 rung implies LoRA rank 35 (between the matrix's r16 and
+r256 — no capacity-comparable arm); every ladder rung now lands inside the
+0.85–1.15 band; attention-vs-MLP placement cannot be matched by block size at
+all (~26% high everywhere). <code>badab95</code> threads an <code>oft_type</code> keyword so legacy
+shared-R arms can never silently receive canonical accounting; legacy
+accounting reproduces the old ledger number exactly (regression-pinned).</p></li></ul>

+<p>Positive: any pre-fix evaluation that loaded a saved OFT adapter from disk in a batched request reported base-model numbers and must be rerun if it fed any record. Training via the streamed cpu_gather path was never affected; published E4 training curves are untouched by all three bugs.</p>

+<p>² trtllm_mha rejects deterministic mode on the old build, so this cell was
+attempted WITHOUT deterministic inference (greedy, single fixed batch, radix
+off, 2 repeats per build). The old build was killed at engine boot both times.
+Instructively, the new build's own two repeats already disagree without
+deterministic mode — 16/16 tokens but max |Δlogprob| 1.55e-2 with the adapter,
+and only 15/16 identical token sequences on base — so even with both builds
+booting, this mode could never support bit-level cross-build claims; it bounds

+<p>On H100 every cell is bit-identical across the ~5,500-commit merge, on both backends. The only drift is triton-on-B200, it is adapter-agnostic (LoRA's max delta 1.35e-1 exceeds base 1.15e-1 exceeds OFT 8.3e-2; medians ~1 bf16 ulp; OFT's higher median is a position-mix artifact of EOS-short outputs) — and it was subsequently <strong>root-caused to a single prefill tiling branch and closed to bit-identity</strong> (below).</p>

+<p>The v0.5.16 line added an sm100-specific branch to the extend-attention tile selection (<code>sglang/kernels/ops/attention/extend_attention.py</code>, <code>CUDA_CAPABILITY[0] == 10</code> → BLOCK_M,BLOCK_N = (64,64) for Lq≤256, added for sm_100a register constraints); the old build had no such branch and fell through to the Hopper sizes (128,64) on B200. Different tiles → different bf16 online-softmax accumulation order; decode kernels have no capability branches, so all decode-position drift was downstream of prefill-written KV. Confirmed by experiment (job 17469012, i305, the same node as the reference dumps): with the branch disabled, old-vs-new is <strong>bit-identical on B200/triton</strong> — 16/16 tokens and max |Δlogprob| = 0.000e+00 for OFT, LoRA, and both base controls. The probe patch was reverted after the run. <strong>Decision: no permanent match switch adopted</strong> — the experiment's purpose was verifying the merge, which it does conclusively (the new build is the old build plus one deliberate, documented sm100 performance tiling choice); anyone needing bit-continuity on B200/triton can reproduce the one-line branch disable recorded here.</p>

+<p>Seeded sampling (temperature 1.0, deterministic mode, same seed, same pytorch
+sampling backend): 16/16 prompts diverge from position 0. Each build is exactly
+self-reproducible; the RNG streams differ across builds. Cross-build "identical
+seeded rollouts" is not achievable — this dictated Stage B's frozen-batch
+design.</p>

A systematic code difference would appear in those cells too; g102's 7.6e-4 OFT cross-build delta is therefore node-state nondeterminism under-sampled at two repeats, not code. Grad-norm <em>values</em> differ per (node, backend) — 4.716 / 4.848 / 4.850 / 4.810 for the same OFT batch — but both builds always agree exactly per configuration; the variation is a hardware/backend effect orthogonal to the merge, and further support for the campaign's existing mixed-node-type limitation. Notably the B200 <em>trainer</em> is bit-identical cross-build even though the B200 <em>serving</em> triton path drifts: the trainer's TE/flash-attn kernels are the same binaries in both venvs, while the serving drift came from sglang's own re-tuned triton kernel.</p>

All 16 ranks (8 engines × TP2) share that one directory and race to store the same key; on a network filesystem the loser's open handle is invalidated by the winner's rename and the read-back returns ESTALE. b8 is the exposed rung because its key space is entirely cold — <code>_pick_tiles</code> gives (8, 8) for BLOCK_SIZE=8 while b128 lands on the untiled (128, 128) path every earlier arm had already compiled — but nothing about the mechanism is specific to b8.</p>

+
+## Executive result
+
+The complete short-horizon panel gives a mixed answer to the LoRA-without-regret
+hypothesis. With learning rate tuned separately, LoRA r16 reaches **0.2758** on Math,
+slightly above FullFT's **0.2660**. On GSM8K, FullFT reaches **0.7870** while the best
+LoRA endpoint is **0.7551**. That LoRA endpoint is length-degenerate, however; the best
+non-runaway LoRA endpoint is r256 at **0.7415**.
+
+| dataset | base | best FullFT | best LoRA | LoRA − FullFT | LoRA/FullFT LR |
+|:--|--:|:--|:--|--:|--:|
+| GSM8K | 0.033 | 0.7870 @ 7e-07 | 0.7551 @ 3e-05, r16 | -0.0319 | 42.9× |
+| Math | 0.056 | 0.2660 @ 7e-07 | 0.2758 @ 3e-05, r16 | +0.0098 | 42.9× |
+
+<div class="callout warn">
+<strong>This is not a full reproduction of rank-independent LoRA parity.</strong>
+Math r1 peaks at 0.2536 and r256 at 0.2378, below both r16 and FullFT. GSM8K's three
+LoRA ranks cluster more tightly at their tuned 3e-05 point, but even the best healthy
+LoRA arm trails FullFT by 0.0455. Every number is one seed, so these are measured
+endpoints rather than significance claims.
+</div>
+
+## Setup
+
+All arms fine-tune `llama3.1-8b` with the protocol centralized in
+`scripts/lora_regret/e4_protocol.sh`. GSM8K trains on 7,473 problems and evaluates on
+1,319; Math trains on 7,498 and evaluates on 5,000. Dataset selection is the only
+substantive configuration difference between paired GSM8K and Math scripts.
+
+- `NUM_ROLLOUT=150`: 150 rollout batches and 150 optimizer updates; ledgers store the
+  final zero-based step as `149`.
+- `GLOBAL_BATCH_SIZE=1024`: one on-policy update per batch of 32 prompts × 32 samples.
+- GRPO-style group-mean centering without standard-deviation normalization.
+- PPO clipping disabled with `EPS_CLIP=EPS_CLIP_HIGH=1e9`.
+- `EVAL_INTERVAL=25`: eval before training and after rollouts 24, 49, 74, 99, 124,
+  and 149.
+- No checkpoints (`SAVE_INTERVAL` empty); W&B writes offline and syncs from a login
+  host to entity `zeju-qiu`.
+- Every arm uses eight GPUs. FullFT is TP=4/DP=2. LoRA targets
+  `linear_qkv,linear_proj,linear_fc1,linear_fc2`.
+
+LoRA uses `lora_alpha=32` at every rank. Its adapter scaling α/r is therefore 32, 2,
+and 0.125 for r1, r16, and r256. Rank and nominal learning rate are not independent
+axes in this panel: a fixed nominal LR produces a 256× spread in adapter scaling.
+
+### Learning-rate grids
+
+LR0 is a LoRA-only point added below the original seven-column panel. Every other
+column contains one FullFT arm and the three LoRA ranks.
+
+| column | FullFT LR | LoRA LR | GSM8K | Math |
+|:--|--:|--:|:--|:--|
+| lr0 | — | 2e-06 | 3/3 complete | 3/3 complete |
+| lr1 | 5e-08 | 5e-06 | 4/4 complete | 4/4 complete |
+| lr2 | 1e-07 | 1e-05 | 4/4 complete | 4/4 complete |
+| lr3 | 3e-07 | 3e-05 | 4/4 complete | 4/4 complete |
+| lr4 | 7e-07 | 7e-05 | 4/4 complete | 4/4 complete |
+| lr5 | 2e-06 | 2e-04 | 4/4 complete | 4/4 complete |
+| lr6 | 4e-06 | 4e-04 | 4/4 complete | 4/4 complete |
+| lr7 | 1e-05 | 1e-03 | 4/4 complete | FullFT + r1 complete; r16 stopped; r256 not launched |
+
+### Reproduction commands
+
+Each wrapper is resumable: an arm already recorded with `status: "ok"` is skipped.
+
+```bash
+source /fast/zqiu/orbit-iclr/orbit_env/bin/activate
+cd /fast/zqiu/orbit-iclr/orbit
+
+bash scripts/lora_regret/run_e4_gsm8k_lr0_8gpu.sh  # repeat for lr1 … lr7
+bash scripts/lora_regret/run_e4_math_lr0_8gpu.sh   # repeat for lr1 … lr7
+```
+
+## Results
+
+### GSM8K endpoint accuracy
+
+Held-out `gsm8k_test` accuracy after rollout 149. LR0 is blank for FullFT because the
+extension deliberately added only LoRA arms.
+
+| method | lr0 | lr1 | lr2 | lr3 | lr4 | lr5 | lr6 | lr7 | best |
+|:--|--:|--:|--:|--:|--:|--:|--:|--:|:--|
+| FullFT | — | 0.0637 | 0.2578 | 0.7028 | **0.7870** | 0.7854 | 0.5459 | 0.0000 | 0.7870 @ 7e-07 |
+| LoRA r1 | 0.2858 | 0.6937 | 0.6892 | **0.7149** | 0.6808 | 0.0000 | 0.0000 | 0.0000 | 0.7149 @ 3e-05 |
+| LoRA r16 | 0.1175 | 0.7051 | 0.7346 | **0.7551** | 0.6694 | 0.6217 | 0.0000 | 0.0000 | 0.7551 @ 3e-05 |
+| LoRA r256 | 0.0538 | 0.3730 | 0.7187 | **0.7415** | 0.6513 | 0.6892 | 0.0000 | 0.0000 | 0.7415 @ 3e-05 |
+
+FullFT's optimum is bracketed: 0.7870 at 7e-07 and 0.7854 at 2e-06 form a broad top,
+then accuracy falls to 0.5459 at 4e-06 and zero at 1e-05. All three LoRA ranks peak
+at 3e-05. LR0 confirms that 2e-06 is an under-training boundary, especially as rank
+increases: r1/r16/r256 finish at 0.2858/0.1175/0.0538 and are still rising at the end.
+
+The high-LR endpoint can hide a broken policy. LoRA r16 at 3e-05, the headline best,
+reaches 0.7551 while its response length has already saturated near the 2,048-token
+cap. At 2e-04, r16 and r256 still score 0.6217 and 0.6892 with 100% truncation. These
+are gradeable answers followed by runaway text, not healthy policies. At 4e-04 and
+1e-03 all LoRA ranks finish at zero.
+
+### Math endpoint accuracy
+
+Held-out `math_test` accuracy after rollout 149.
+
+| method | lr0 | lr1 | lr2 | lr3 | lr4 | lr5 | lr6 | lr7 | best |
+|:--|--:|--:|--:|--:|--:|--:|--:|--:|:--|
+| FullFT | — | 0.0734 | 0.1228 | 0.2250 | **0.2660** | 0.1366 | 0.0300 | 0.0460 | 0.2660 @ 7e-07 |
+| LoRA r1 | 0.1256 | 0.2240 | **0.2536** | 0.0000 | 0.2002 | 0.0000 | 0.0000 | 0.0000 | 0.2536 @ 1e-05 |
+| LoRA r16 | 0.0776 | 0.1864 | 0.2690 | **0.2758** | 0.2722 | 0.1040 | 0.0000 | — | 0.2758 @ 3e-05 |
+| LoRA r256 | 0.0682 | 0.1250 | 0.1736 | 0.2010 | **0.2378** | 0.0000 | 0.0000 | — | 0.2378 @ 7e-05 |
+
+Math brackets the same FullFT optimum at 7e-07, but its LoRA optimum moves with rank:
+r1 prefers 1e-05, r16 prefers 3e-05, and r256 prefers 7e-05. That ordered shift is
+consistent with fixed α/r making the effective update smaller as rank increases.
+
+The r1 1e-05 arm is not collapsed: its final complete segment rises
+0.0590 → 0.0960 → 0.1680 → 0.1888 → 0.2202 → 0.2366 → 0.2536. The same file
+contains a short earlier attempt ending at rollout 24; the successful ledger row and
+last complete log segment identify the finished run. In contrast, r1 at 3e-05 reaches
+0.2124 at rollout 74, then falls to 0.0006 at 99 and zero thereafter as truncation
+rises to 97.7%.
+
+### Representative evaluation trajectories
+
+These checkpoints come from the last complete segment of each launcher log. They show
+that endpoint zeros are genuine late collapse, not zero accuracy for the entire run.

+
+Wall time is the successful arm's elapsed time, not scheduler billing time. Summed over
+successful rows it is 137.9 whole-node hours for GSM8K and 154.4 for Math. Hardware
+varied between H100 and B200 nodes, so wall times are useful operational provenance but
+not a controlled method comparison.

+
+## Negative results and run history
+
+### Math LR7 was deliberately stopped after the result was already decisive
+
+The Math LoRA r16 `1e-03` arm was stopped around rollout 50/150. Its evaluations at
+rollouts 24 and 49 were both zero with mean response length 2,048 and 100% truncation.
+The r256 `1e-03` arm was not launched. Their absence from the successful ledger is
+intentional; they are not scheduler failures and should not be silently counted as
+unfinished successes.
+
+### Collapse means runaway length, not merely a low endpoint
+
+Across both datasets, unstable arms drive generations to the 2,048-token cap. A
+truncated response often loses its final `\boxed{}` answer and grades zero. Sometimes
+the box appears before repeated text, so accuracy remains nonzero even at 100%
+truncation. This is why accuracy alone cannot label a high-LR arm healthy.
+
+### Ten stale GSM8K failures remain in the raw ledgers
+
+The GSM8K ledgers contain ten `failed` rows in addition to the 31 unique successful
+rows: three in lr1, two each in lr2 and lr3, and one each in lr5–lr7. Some use the
+superseded FullFT grid; others are earlier attempts with no post-training evaluation.
+They do not conflict with any successful endpoint. The report filters `status == "ok"`
+and keeps failed history separate.
+
+Several launcher logs also contain appended partial attempts before the final complete
+segment. The endpoint matrices come from unique successful ledger rows; trajectory
+tables use the last complete 0–149 segment rather than concatenating attempts.
+
+### WandB upload is not completion evidence
+
+Training ran with `WANDB_MODE=offline`, targeting the personal entity `zeju-qiu` during
+login-node synchronization. This report does not treat W&B availability as evidence
+that training finished: completion is established by the successful ledger rows and
+the final rollout-149 evals. Final server-side synchronization was not re-audited here.
+
+## Interpretation
+
+1. **Tuning matters by roughly two orders of magnitude.** Both datasets choose
+   7e-07 for FullFT and 3e-05 for the best r16 LoRA arm, a 42.9× LR ratio. Comparing
+   the methods at one shared LR would be badly confounded.
+2. **The stable LR window is finite and now bracketed.** Both FullFT curves peak at
+   7e-07; both LoRA panels deteriorate above the 1e-05–7e-05 region. The added LR0
+   point verifies the low side rather than improving the optimum.
+3. **Rank independence is dataset-dependent at this budget.** GSM8K's tuned LoRA
+   endpoints span 0.7149–0.7551. Math spans 0.2378–0.2758 and selects a different LR
+   per rank. Fixed α/r and only 150 updates are plausible contributors, but the sweep
+   does not isolate them.
+4. **Endpoint accuracy overstates some arms.** GSM8K r16/r256 at 2e-04 and Math r16
+   at 7e-05 retain high accuracy in runaway-length states. A parity claim should use
+   both answer accuracy and response-health metrics.
+5. **The best defensible result is narrower than the headline.** Math r16 matches
+   FullFT under the measured protocol. GSM8K healthy LoRA comes within 0.0455 of
+   FullFT. The broader statement that all three LoRA ranks match FullFT is not supported
+   by this single-seed, 150-update panel.
+
+## Limitations and next steps
+
+- Run multiple seeds at the stable optima: FullFT 7e-07; GSM8K LoRA 3e-05; Math
+  LoRA r1/r16/r256 at 1e-05/3e-05/7e-05.
+- Add an eval stop condition or treat response length and truncation as first-class
+  acceptance metrics so a gradeable box followed by 2,000 repeated tokens cannot look
+  healthy.
+- Extend selected low-LR arms to 234 rollouts (one dataset epoch) to distinguish slow
+  learning from a genuinely poor LR, especially LR0 r16/r256.
+- Test an α schedule that holds α/r constant across ranks, or retune each rank on a
+  denser local grid, before interpreting rank as adapter capacity.
+- Check final W&B synchronization separately if the online dashboard is needed; the
+  durable result record is the ledger-backed report, not the dashboard state.
+- No checkpoints were written, so these exact trained policies cannot be re-evaluated
+  under a new grader or generation policy.
+
+## Provenance and closure
+
+The authoritative runtime checkout was `/fast/zqiu/orbit-iclr/orbit` on
+`feat/lora-without-regret` at `46c8e0f6d65a9630d3eff44d2db7c1e9dc38a18a`.
+Tracked files were clean; the 16 result ledgers and unrelated working notes were
+untracked. A single bounded ledger snapshot was taken through `mpi2`; supporting
+trajectories were extracted read-only from `logs/lora_regret/`.
+
+The final LR0 allocations recovered from Condor history were `17448192.0` and
+`17448193.0`; their execution nodes were `i101` and `i108`. Earlier interactive job
+IDs were not fully retained, so this report does not invent them. All Codex-managed
+tmux sessions were closed after completion and those allocations were released.
+
+Successful-row closure:
+
+```text
+GSM8K  lr0=3, lr1..lr7=4 each  -> 31 unique successes
+Math   lr0=3, lr1..lr6=4 each, lr7=2 -> 29 unique successes
+Math   lr7 LoRA r16 stopped after persistent zero; r256 not launched
+All 60 successful rows: final step=149, accuracy present, status=ok

+
+## Question
+
+Orbit's PPO offers two critics: a **full critic** (a second 3B trunk + value head on its
+own GPU) and an **adapter critic** (a value head + OFT adapter sharing the actor's frozen
+trunk, one-trunk PPO). The [design doc](../plans/2026-08-06-ppo-critic-comparison-design.md)
+asks two separately-reported questions: at *matched rollout capacity*, do they learn
+equally well (controlled panel)? And at *matched hardware*, which is cheaper end-to-end
+(fixed-budget panel)?
+
+A follow-up question arose from the results: the initial numbers made PPO look worse than
+GRPO, so a 2×2 attribution matrix ({OFT, full-FT} × {PPO, GRPO}) and an OFT actor-LR probe
+were run to locate the real bottleneck.
+
+## Setup
+
+Qwen2.5-3B-Instruct BF16, TP=PP=1, actor trained as a **Canonical OFT adapter**
+(block 32, eps 6e-5, `all-linear`, NCCL double-buffered weight sync) at lr 1e-6 constant;
+critic lr 1e-5; PPO with GAE γ=λ=1, clip 0.2/0.28, value-clip 0.2, no KL, no entropy
+bonus, advantages normalized, one critic-warmup rollout; strictly on-policy, one pass per
+rollout. 64 prompts × 4 samples × 500 rollouts, temperature 1.0, 1024-token response cap,
+deterministic math verifier (60 s verification timeout). Eval every 25 rollouts on
+Math500/AIME24/AMC23 (math_alignment grading), 4 samples per prompt at temperature 1.0.
+sglang v0.5.16 engines (1 GPU each, deterministic inference, triton attention, prefill
+CUDA graph disabled). No periodic checkpoints (`SAVE_INTERVAL=100000`; end-save only, to
+group storage) because the `zqiu` Lustre quota stalls multi-GB writes.

+conversion via `tools/convert_hf_to_torch_dist.py` (5.8 GB, 16 shards, matches the
+design-doc manifest); eval dir `/fast/groups/ei-slm/data/peft_arena_eval_math_alignment`.
+
+## Results — controlled panel (learning)
+
+**No detectable difference.** Math500 pass@1, mean ± sd over the last six eval gates
+(rollouts 374–499); "final gate" shown to illustrate why single-gate reads mislead:
+
+| Run | last-6-gate mean | final gate | base (gate 0) | train reward (last 100) |
+|:--|--:|--:|--:|--:|
+| full critic | **52.27 ± 1.00** | 50.85 | 49.15 | 0.317 |
+| adapter critic, controlled | **52.33 ± 1.26** | 53.55 | 49.25 | 0.312 |
+| adapter critic, budget | 51.61 ± 1.42 | 52.90 | 49.10 | 0.321 |
+
+The final-gate spread (50.85 vs 53.55) is single-gate noise: per-gate sd is 1.0–1.4
+points because eval samples 4 responses per prompt at temperature 1.0. Trajectories
+differ in shape — full critic peaks earlier (54.1 at r174) and drifts back; the adapter
+climbs later — but endpoints are equal within noise.
+
+![Benchmark panels](figs/fig1_panels.png)
+
+Secondary evals at the final gate (small sets, very gate-noisy): AIME24 pass@1
+4.2/3.3/2.5, AMC23 35.6/31.3/31.3 (full / adapter-controlled / adapter-budget).
+
+## Results — systems (time and memory)
+
+**Time: the full critic is 23% faster per step, structurally.** Critic training costs
+~11.1 s per rollout in either mode. The full critic overlaps it on its own GPU; the
+adapter critic runs it *serially* on the actor's GPU (one GPU, one training pass at a
+time — and it cannot fuse with the policy pass, since the critic drives the trunk through
+its own adapter with its own optimizer). The arithmetic closes: 48.1 + 11.1 ≈ 62.3 s.
+
+| | full critic | adapter (3 GPU) | adapter (4 GPU) |
+|:--|--:|--:|--:|
+| median step time | **48.1 s** | 62.3 s | 62.4 s |
+| critic train (overlap / serial) | 11.1 s overlapped | 11.1 s serial | 11.1 s serial |
+| wall clock, 500 rollouts | **440 min** | 543 min | 531 min |
+| GPU-hours | 29.3 | **27.2** | 35.4 |
+
+![Step time and cost](figs/fig4_systems.png)
+
+**The fixed-budget panel's premise failed**: re-investing the freed critic GPU into a
+third rollout engine bought 2% (64.4 → 63.1 s/rollout) because training, not generation,
+dominates the step (~23 s generate-wait vs ~31 s train). The freed GPU is better spent on
+a different job.
+
+**Memory: the adapter's structural win.** The full critic occupies an entire extra B200
+with a second 3B trunk + fp32 master weights + Adam states (actor-scale: the actor
+measured 48.8 GB peak-reserved at sync points; the critic full-finetunes the same
+architecture). The adapter critic adds only a value head + OFT adapter on the shared
+frozen trunk: actor-GPU footprint 44.6 GB, essentially unchanged. Caveat: these are
+weight-sync-time snapshots (`log_device_memory_used` off; per-step peaks not
+instrumented — listed as follow-up in the design doc). The ~45–50 GB + one-GPU
+structural difference does not hinge on snapshot timing.
+
+## Attribution — why PPO looked worse than GRPO
+
+A full-FT GRPO companion run scored ~6 points higher than every OFT panel, initially
+suggesting "PPO worse than GRPO." Completing the 2×2 shows the axis that matters:
+
+| Math500 pass@1 (last-6-gate) | PPO (+full critic) | GRPO |
+|:--|--:|--:|
+| full finetuning | **60.02 ± 0.96** | 58.64 ± 0.78 |
+| OFT adapter (lr 1e-6) | 52.27 ± 1.00 | 53.80 ± 0.80 |
+
+![Attribution matrix](figs/fig2_matrix.png)
+
+**Capacity is worth ~6–8 points under either estimator; the estimator is worth ±1.5 and
+flips sign.** Untuned PPO posts the best number of the whole study once given full
+weights. The corroborating signature: OFT runs' pass@4 stays flat (~74) while full-FT
+pass@4 rises — the adapter sharpens sampling toward known solutions; full FT finds new
+ones. GRPO's remaining edge is cost: no critic at all → ~28 s/rollout, 17.8 GPU-h
+(full-FT GRPO) vs ~36 s/rollout with the overlapped critic (full-FT PPO).
+
+**OFT actor-LR probe** (full-critic PPO, all else fixed): lr 1e-5 recovers about 4 of the
+~7 missing points at the cost of 2× gate volatility; 3e-6 sits between (partial — run died
+at r403, see incidents).
+
+| OFT-PPO actor LR | last-6-gate Math500 pass@1 |
+|:--|--:|

+
+## Incidents (operational, all diagnosed)
+
+- **Eval-scorer timeout trap**: the reward verifier defaults to a 10 s timeout; the
+  benchmark recipe exports `ORBIT_PEFT_ARENA_REWARD_TIMEOUT_S=60`. A standalone launcher
+  without it deflated Math500 by ~16 points on byte-identical generations (verification
+  timeouts scored as wrong). One full-FT GRPO run was discarded and rerun for this.
+- **Condor node-sharing port race**: two jobs packed on one 8-GPU node each get a private
+  `/tmp`, blinding orbit's flock port coordination → sglang TCPStore `EADDRINUSE`.
+  Mitigated with per-job `Machine !=` exclusions (an orbit-side fix would change the
+  `git_commit` recorded in run manifests, breaking cross-run parity).
+- **Silent engine death on i305** at rollout 412/500 (trainer saw only an HTTP
+  disconnect; no engine-side error; memory/GPU steady). Cause unidentified; node
+  excluded; run restarted from scratch (no checkpoints).
+- **lr 3e-6 probe died at r403**: router HTTP failure on i301 mid-abort. Trajectory
+  through r399 retained; not rerun.
+- **Lustre user quota exhaustion** (24.3 TB / 20 TiB) stalls multi-GB checkpoint writes
+  in D-state (`balance_dirty_pages`); the study therefore ran checkpoint-free with
+  end-saves on group storage. A crash costs the whole run.
+
+## Conclusions
+
+1. **Critic choice does not affect learning quality** at this scale (one seed): 52.27 vs
+   52.33, identical training rewards.
+2. **Full critic buys latency with hardware**: −23% step time for +1 GPU (+~45–50 GB).
+   **Adapter critic buys efficiency with latency**: fewest GPU-hours (27.2) and no second
+   trunk — the property that matters where a second trunk is unaffordable (the Kimi-1T
+   regime this feature exists for).
+3. Do not spend the freed GPU on rollout at this scale.
+4. **The estimator was never the bottleneck** — the OFT adapter at lr 1e-6 was. Raising
+   adapter LR to 1e-5 closes over half the gap (with volatility); full FT closes it
+   entirely and makes untuned PPO the best run of the study.
+
+## Next steps
+
+- Seeds 2–3 for the three benchmark panels (design-doc gate for learning claims).
+- OFT LR middle ground: rerun 3e-6 to completion; consider 5e-6; consider a KL anchor
+  for lr ≥ 1e-5 volatility.
+- Peak-VRAM instrumentation (design-doc follow-up) for a precise memory table.
+
+## Follow-up 1 — tuning the one-trunk adapter recipe (2026-08-11..15)
+
+Goal: make the pure PEFT configuration (OFT actor + adapter critic, no full trunk
+anywhere) approach full-FT's 58.6–60. Three benchmark-matched runs (seed 1234; two
+earlier attempts were destroyed mid-run by the silent engine deaths — see incidents):
+
+| Config | Math500 pass@1, last-6-gate | final gate | pass@4 (final) |
+|:--|--:|--:|--:|
+| lr 1e-6, block 32 (baseline) | 52.33 ± 1.26 | 53.6 | 75.4 |
+| lr 3e-6, block 32 | **54.40 ± 2.03** | 52.0 | 71.2 |
+| lr 5e-6, block 32 | 53.09 ± 2.17 | 54.2 | 75.0 |
+| lr 3e-6, block 64 | 53.92 ± 2.05 | 56.5 | 74.2 |
+
+![Tuning sweep and head-critic collapse](figs/fig5_followups.png)
+
+**Verdict: LR buys ~+1.5–2 points and doubles gate volatility (sd 1.3 → ~2.1);
+block-size capacity buys nothing; the ~5-point gap to full-FT is structural.**
+5e-6 is already past the useful range. pass@4 stays at the base model's ~74 in
+every cell — the adapter recipe still only sharpens sampling toward already-known
+solutions, which is why no step-size/capacity knob closes the gap. (The earlier
+full-critic LR probes read ~56.5 at partial horizon; with full 500-rollout
+horizons and the adapter critic, the honest stable estimate is ~54.) Remaining
+untried levers — a KL anchor to tame the volatility, larger adapter surface via
+target modules — have diminishing prospects given the flat pass@4.
+
+## Follow-up 2 — `--critic-mode head` (detached-trunk critic + full-FT actor): negative result
+
+To combine full-FT capacity with the adapter critic's zero-memory profile, a new
+`--critic-mode head` was implemented (branch `feat/detached-trunk-head-critic`,
+TDD, 83 CPU tests + 0.5B GPU smoke): a value-head-only critic whose frozen
+critic-side trunk view aliases the actor's storage — freeze applied inside the
+model provider, before DDP wrap, so a value backward provably produces no trunk
+gradients even while the actor full-finetunes the same bytes.
+
+The mechanics work; **the algorithm does not**: at 3B benchmark settings the run
+peaked at 53.5 (r24), decayed from ~r100, and collapsed to ~1.4 by r250
+(fig. above, right). Critic value loss never converged — stuck at 2–4 versus the
+full critic's 0.13–0.18, a ~20× gap — so advantages were noise, and with no KL
+anchor the policy walked into degenerate max-length outputs (reward → 0,
+response length → the 1024 cap). Conclusion: **a single linear head on detached,
+drifting features cannot supply usable values at this scale**; the full critic's
+dedicated (or the adapter critic's frozen-trunk) representation is load-bearing.
+Untried variants: deeper MLP head, higher critic LR / longer critic-only warmup,
+KL anchor. For full-FT actors, GRPO (no critic, 58.64, cheapest) remains the
+recommended default.
+
+## Incidents, continued
+
+- **Silent engine deaths became the dominant operational cost**: 6 incidents
+  across 6 distinct machines (i305, i301, i403, i303, i401, +1), all the same
+  signature — sglang engine stops responding mid-generation, zero engine-side
+  trace, condor reports normal termination — destroying entire runs under the
+  no-checkpoint policy (two full sweep attempts lost). Cause still unidentified.
+  Mitigation queued for any further long runs: adapter-run sidecar checkpoints
+  are only ~370 MB, so `SAVE_INTERVAL=100` on group storage plus resume plumbing
+  makes runs death-tolerant at negligible cost.

+## Question and decomposition
+
+A merge moved the stack from the sglang v0.5.9 line (`b52394d22`, the build every
+published E4 number was produced on, venv `orbit_env`) to the v0.5.16 line
+(`05cd76b4d`, venv `orbit_env_v2`), and moved orbit itself by 216 commits from the
+E4 report's provenance commit `46c8e0f6` (+4,490/−291 lines in
+`backends/megatron_utils` alone). The question: does the merged stack produce the
+same numbers?
+
+Unseeded sampling makes end-to-end RL runs incomparable (measured earlier: 0/32
+identical completions at fixed seed), so the program decomposed into pieces that
+are deterministic by construction:
+
+1. **Stage A** — inference forward: same weights, greedy decoding, deterministic
+   inference mode, pinned attention backend, both builds on one node.
+2. **Backend × adapter × GPU matrix** — the same probe over
+   {H100, B200} × {fa3, triton, flashinfer} × {base, LoRA r16, OFT b128}.
+3. **Stage B** — trainer: one frozen rollout batch replayed through the full E4
+   launcher on both stacks via orbit's own `--load-debug-rollout-data` /
+   `--debug-train-only` seam (zero sglang engines, one GRPO step, 1×H100,
+   TP1/DP1), comparing per-token logprobs, advantages, grad norm, repeated for a
+   nondeterminism envelope.
+
+## Completed deliverables
+
+- **sglang `40784883e`** — `fix(peft): propagate resolved adapter ids into cached
+  request sub-objects`. Batched `generate()` with `adapter_path`/`lora_path`
+  resolved the adapter at the tokenizer but the id never reached the scheduler
+  (`GenerateReqInput.__getitem__` memoizes sub-objects before resolution runs).
+  OFT served the identity slot: disk-loaded adapters silently returned
+  **base-model output**. Verified pre/post on GPU for both PEFT kinds.
+- **sglang `51845dc4a`** — `fix(peft): key the radix cache by OFT adapter id`.
+  The port dropped the old build's `|oft:{id}:v{n}` extra-key branch, so
+  adapter and base requests shared radix keys; base requests prefix-matched
+  adapter-computed KV (base greedy ≡ adapter output on 14/16 prompts, 0/16 with
+  the cache disabled). RL was protected only because orbit force-disables the
+  radix cache for PEFT rollout engines. Verified with the cache on.
+- **orbit `89ea48c` + `badab95`** — canonical OFT builds one rotation per fused
+  **output slice** (qkv=3, fc1=2), not per module; the counter undercounted
+  all-modules OFT by **1.46×** (b128: recorded 54,099,968, actual 79,069,184).
+  This fed `matched_ratio`/`oft_matched_lora_rank`, so "parameter-matched"
+  OFT/LoRA pairs handed OFT ~46% extra capacity. Consequences now pinned in
+  tests: E4's b128 rung implies LoRA rank 35 (between the matrix's r16 and
+  r256 — no capacity-comparable arm); every ladder rung now lands inside the
+  0.85–1.15 band; attention-vs-MLP placement cannot be matched by block size at
+  all (~26% high everywhere). `badab95` threads an `oft_type` keyword so legacy
+  shared-R arms can never silently receive canonical accounting; legacy
+  accounting reproduces the old ledger number exactly (regression-pinned).
+
+All three fixes are pushed to `Sphere-AI-Lab/{sglang,orbit}` `orbit-main` and
+live in `orbit_env_v2`'s installed copy.
+
+<aside class="finding" data-tone="caution">
+  <p class="block-label">Finding</p>
+  <p>Positive: any pre-fix evaluation that loaded a saved OFT adapter from disk in a batched request reported base-model numbers and must be rerun if it fed any record. Training via the streamed cpu_gather path was never affected; published E4 training curves are untouched by all three bugs.</p>

+## Verification — inference (Stage A + matrix)
+
+Probe: 16 math prompts × 64 greedy tokens, deterministic inference, radix cache
+disabled, per-position |Δlogprob| over prompts whose full token sequences match.
+Within-build repeatability across independent engine boots was exactly 0.00
+(three control pairs), so every nonzero delta below is a genuine build
+difference.

+patch reverted after the measurement.
+
+² trtllm_mha rejects deterministic mode on the old build, so this cell was
+attempted WITHOUT deterministic inference (greedy, single fixed batch, radix
+off, 2 repeats per build). The old build was killed at engine boot both times.
+Instructively, the new build's own two repeats already disagree without
+deterministic mode — 16/16 tokens but max |Δlogprob| 1.55e-2 with the adapter,
+and only 15/16 identical token sequences on base — so even with both builds
+booting, this mode could never support bit-level cross-build claims; it bounds
+any comparison at the ~1e-2 batch-nondeterminism floor.

+  <p>The v0.5.16 line added an sm100-specific branch to the extend-attention tile selection (<code>sglang/kernels/ops/attention/extend_attention.py</code>, <code>CUDA_CAPABILITY[0] == 10</code> → BLOCK_M,BLOCK_N = (64,64) for Lq≤256, added for sm_100a register constraints); the old build had no such branch and fell through to the Hopper sizes (128,64) on B200. Different tiles → different bf16 online-softmax accumulation order; decode kernels have no capability branches, so all decode-position drift was downstream of prefill-written KV. Confirmed by experiment (job 17469012, i305, the same node as the reference dumps): with the branch disabled, old-vs-new is <strong>bit-identical on B200/triton</strong> — 16/16 tokens and max |Δlogprob| = 0.000e+00 for OFT, LoRA, and both base controls. The probe patch was reverted after the run. <strong>Decision: no permanent match switch adopted</strong> — the experiment's purpose was verifying the merge, which it does conclusively (the new build is the old build plus one deliberate, documented sm100 performance tiling choice); anyone needing bit-continuity on B200/triton can reproduce the one-line branch disable recorded here.</p>
+</aside>
+
+Seeded sampling (temperature 1.0, deterministic mode, same seed, same pytorch
+sampling backend): 16/16 prompts diverge from position 0. Each build is exactly
+self-reproducible; the RNG streams differ across builds. Cross-build "identical
+seeded rollouts" is not achievable — this dictated Stage B's frozen-batch
+design.
+
+## Verification — trainer (Stage B)
+
+One frozen batch (16 sequences: true-base greedy completions with documented
+provenance, all-ones loss masks, deterministic alternating advantages;
+`batch_0.pt` sha256 `cc97441e…`) replayed through the unmodified E4 launcher on
+both stacks: old = `orbit_env` + a git worktree pinned at `46c8e0f6`; new =
+`orbit_env_v2` + merged `orbit-main`. Same `MODEL/CKPT/PERF/PEFT` args as the
+campaign, 1×H100, TP1/PP1/DP1, one optimizer step, LoRA r16 and OFT b128, with
+repeats.
+
+**Forward: bit-identical.** Every quantity the trainer computes ahead of the
+backward pass compared exactly equal, old-vs-new (max |Δ| = 0.00 at every
+position; "bit-equal" below means `torch.equal` on the full tensors). Backend
+note: the trainer has no fa3/triton axis — those are sglang serving backends.
+Both stacks ran the campaign launcher's own Megatron setting,
+`--attention-backend flash` (TransformerEngine → flash-attn 2.8.3, byte-identical
+builds in both venvs); other Megatron attention modes (fused/unfused) were not
+exercised because the campaign never uses them:

+
+Within-build repeats were also bit-equal on every quantity, so the forward path
+is exactly deterministic per node; the token-stream equality doubles as proof
+that both stacks consumed and preprocessed the identical frozen batch.

+The DP row tests the campaign's data-parallel axis (per-rank sharding of the
+frozen batch, gradient allreduce across 4 ranks, one optimizer step): every
+rank's forward shard and the globally reduced grad norm are bit-equal
+cross-build. It ran as DP=4 on a 4-GPU slice rather than the campaign's DP=8
+whole node because all three free complete H100/B200 nodes offered to the
+whole-node request carried dead GPUs (i101: one, i104: two, i306: one, plus a
+mislabeled ClassAd) — reported to cluster operations; the allreduce mechanism
+under test is identical at either width.
+
+<aside class="finding" data-tone="positive">
+  <p class="block-label">Finding</p>
+  <p>On every node/backend combination except g102, the entire pipeline — forward, backward, grad norm — is bit-identical across the merge: g198 and i108 (H100, flash and fused backends), and i305 (B200, flash and fused, both PEFT methods). A systematic code difference would appear in those cells too; g102's 7.6e-4 OFT cross-build delta is therefore node-state nondeterminism under-sampled at two repeats, not code. Grad-norm <em>values</em> differ per (node, backend) — 4.716 / 4.848 / 4.850 / 4.810 for the same OFT batch — but both builds always agree exactly per configuration; the variation is a hardware/backend effect orthogonal to the merge, and further support for the campaign's existing mixed-node-type limitation. Notably the B200 <em>trainer</em> is bit-identical cross-build even though the B200 <em>serving</em> triton path drifts: the trainer's TE/flash-attn kernels are the same binaries in both venvs, while the serving drift came from sglang's own re-tuned triton kernel.</p>

+## Static equivalence (Megatron side)
+
+Between the two venvs: `megatron-core` installed trees byte-identical;
+Megatron-Bridge differs in exactly one file, scoped to grouped-MoE experts under
+legacy shared-R (the campaign is dense + canonical — doubly out of scope);
+torch 2.11.0, transformer_engine 2.14.0+71bbefbf, triton 3.6.0, flash-attn
+2.8.3, NCCL, numpy, apex, cuDNN all identical builds. The empirical Stage B was
+still necessary because orbit's own trainer-facing code moved substantially.
+
+## Campaign follow-up — the OFT b8 rollout failure
+
+The `e4oftverify` ladder (b8/b128/b1024, all-modules, math, one shared LR of
+7e-06) left one arm without a row: `oftverify-b8-all-math-lr7e-06-s0` died while
+its two siblings completed all 150 rollouts. The ledger holds three `failed`
+rows for it, and only the third is the event worth explaining:
+
+| Attempt | Ran for | Died at | Cause |
+|:--|:--|:--|:--|
+| 1 | 339 s | engine init | `NotImplementedError: Breakable CUDA graph is not compatible with memory saver mode` |
+| 2 | 320 s | engine init | `AssertionError: Triton tl.dot requires BS >= 16; got BS=8` |
+| 3 | 1,286 s | rollout 8/150 | `OSError: [Errno 116] Stale file handle` in the Triton JIT cache |
+
+Attempts 1 and 2 are already-closed environment faults: the first is the
+memory-saver/prefill-graph clash that `env_v0516.sh` now disables the prefill
+CUDA graph for, and the second is the pre-tiny-block package, whose fused kernel
+hard-asserts `BS >= 16` and therefore cannot launch the b8 rung at all.
+
+**Attempt 3 is root-caused, and it is not an OFT defect.** The arm was healthy
+right up to the crash — `train/loss` 0.0038 at step 7, 161 GB free of 178 on
+rank 0, rollouts pacing at 61–71 s, and a step-0 eval of 0.0572 against the
+campaign baseline's 0.056. Three seconds into rollout 8's first prefill, TP1
+raised inside `CompiledKernel.__init__`: Triton was compiling
+`_gemm_oft_r_kernel` for `o_proj`, and reading its own freshly written cache
+entry back returned ESTALE. The scheduler went down, SIGQUIT propagated, and the
+driver exited on a 502 from the router. The `CUDA error: invalid argument`
+printed afterwards comes from `MemPool::~MemPool` during crash teardown and is a
+consequence, not the cause.
+
+<aside class="finding" data-tone="caution">
+  <p class="block-label">Root cause (OFT b8 worker death)</p>
+  <p>Triton's JIT cache was left at its default, <code>$HOME/.triton/cache</code>, and this cluster's <code>$HOME</code> is NFS (<code>/lustre/home</code> is nfs4 from <code>sc-fb1:/cluster-home</code>). <code>_gemm_oft_r_kernel</code> declares <code>total_tokens</code> as <code>tl.constexpr</code>, so every distinct prefill token count is a separate specialization and a separate compile — an RL run compiles this kernel continuously rather than once at warmup, and the cache had grown to <strong>179,085 entries / 44 GB</strong>. All 16 ranks (8 engines × TP2) share that one directory and race to store the same key; on a network filesystem the loser's open handle is invalidated by the winner's rename and the read-back returns ESTALE. b8 is the exposed rung because its key space is entirely cold — <code>_pick_tiles</code> gives (8, 8) for BLOCK_SIZE=8 while b128 lands on the untiled (128, 128) path every earlier arm had already compiled — but nothing about the mechanism is specific to b8.</p>
+</aside>
+
+Fixed in `scripts/lora_regret/campaign.sh`, which now exports a node-local
+`TRITON_CACHE_DIR` before any CUDA work. This is not a new idea: the same block,
+with the same reasoning in its comment, has been in
+`examples/low_precision/run-kimi-k25-int4-openr1-oft.sh` all along — the campaign
+was simply never given it. Placed in `campaign.sh` rather than `env_v0516.sh`
+because every launcher `exec`s the former while the latter is sourced by hand.
+
+Residual: b8 still has no completed math row at 7e-06, so the ladder's low rung
+is unmeasured. The fix removes the failure mode but is unproven against it until
+a rerun completes; the fault is intermittent by nature, so a clean 150-rollout
+b8 run is the only real confirmation.
+
+## Risks and limitations
+
+<aside class="risk">
+  <p class="block-label">Residuals</p>
+  <p><strong>trtllm_mha on B200</strong> (the campaign's B200 default backend) rejects deterministic inference on the old build, so its cross-build equality is unmeasurable by this method. <strong>flashinfer on B200</strong>: the old build is SIGKILLed at engine boot (reproducibly), so that cell is empty. <strong>Sampling</strong>: cross-build rollout draws differ by construction; per-run RL results were never comparable across builds and remain so — seed replicates stay the only way to compare endpoint accuracies. The B200-triton tiling difference (root-caused above; bit-matchable on demand) and the per-node H100 grad-norm difference both belong in any record that mixes node types.</p>

+# Phase-0 launcher qualification — 0.5B slice (2026-08-21, i305, 4×B200)
+
+Scope: the launchers Phase 1 consumes, run at Qwen2.5-0.5B-Instruct on the node's four B200s
+(plan: `docs/superpowers/plans/2026-08-19-adapter-first-phase0-phase1.md`, Task 8). The 4B/30B
+pieces — harness `q3_4b`/`q3_30b`, the 4B fully-async launcher — need 8 GPUs and the 4B/30B
+`torch_dist` conversions and are still pending. Logs: `/lustre/home/zqiu/log/phase0-*.log`
+(driver stdout) and `logs/adapter_runtime_compare/<campaign>/<run_id>/console.log` (harness runs).
+
+## Result ledger
+
+| Launcher / arm | Result | Evidence |
+|---|---|---|
+| harness `pilot` (0.5B LoRA r32, async single-slot, 2+2) | PASS, 265 s | `pilot_20260821_022845/…lora_async_g0123`: all five `perf/update_weights_*` keys; warm update 0.086 s, payload 31.1 MB, pause 0.069 s |
+| harness `q25` OFT `sync` (colocated, ipc/cpu_gather) | PASS, 195 s | `oft6a/…oft_sync_g0123`: warm update 0.20 s, payload 61.9 MB (4 engines × 15.5 MB — per-rank sum), pause 0.19 s |
+| harness `q25` OFT `async` (single-slot, NCCL) | **unsupported by design** | engine: "distributed non-double-buffer OFT adapter sync … not supported; enable --adapter-double-buffer" → constraint 8 |
+| harness `q25` OFT `async_db` (double-buffer, NCCL) | PASS, 171 s | `oft5b/…oft_async_db_g0123`: warm update 0.077–0.086 s, payload 15.5 MB, pause 0.07–0.08 s |
+| harness `q25` full-FT `async_fullft` (broadcast) | PASS, 228 s | `q25_20260821_023310/…none_async_fullft_g0123`: warm update 0.124 s; payload/pause keys absent (emission for this path landed afterwards in `2c354ab`) |
+| OPD free-teacher (`--opd-teacher base`) | PASS | `phase0-opd-free.log`; saves `actor/iter_*/adapter/adapter_megatron_tp0_pp0.pt` with `EXTRA_TRAIN_ARGS="--save-interval 1"` |
+| OPD `self:ema` (sglang-local teacher, OFT) | PASS | `phase0-opd-ema-6.log`: 15 streamed payloads each to `orbit_oft` and `orbit_teacher` |
+| OPD mopd (`--opd-teacher-load`) | PASS | `phase0-opd-mopd.log` |
+| OPD served full-vocab (`--opd-serve-teacher`) | PASS | `phase0-opd-served-3.log` (after sglang `3748b2494`) |
+| OPD adapter-swap (`--opd-teacher adapter:`) | PASS | `phase0-opd-adapter.log`, teacher = free-teacher's saved LoRA-16 adapter |
+| 4B fully-async; harness `q3_4b`, `q3_30b` | NOT RUN | 8 GPUs + 4B/30B torch_dist paths pending |
+
+Standing guard metric `train/train_rollout_logprob_abs_diff` sat at 0.010–0.014 in every adapter run
+(LoRA, OFT single-slot colocated, OFT double-buffer, EMA), i.e. every pushed adapter reached the
+engine intact.
+
+## Defects surfaced and fixed
+
+| # | Symptom | Root cause | Fix |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| 1 | Ray: "start raylet with 6 GPU, but CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES contains [0,1,2,3]" | launchers hardcoded `GPUS_PER_NODE`/`ROLLOUT_NUM_GPUS`/`COLOCATE_ARGS`, shadowing the harness's topology env | orbit `620fb89`: 11 launchers honor the env with their literals as defaults; `tests/fast/test_launcher_topology_env.py` |
+| 2 | `'TritonOFTBackend' object has no attribute 'batch_info'` at prefill CUDA-graph capture | the `breakable` capture path never bound the PEFT batch_info (the tc-piecewise path did) | sglang `e679123c5` |
+| 3 | full-vocab teacher: "expected meta_info['hidden_states'] to have exactly 1 entry, got 0" | new `hs[:finished_len]` truncation drops the prefill block when `max_new_tokens=0` | sglang `3748b2494` |
+| 4 | OFT async: `input_dim (448) must be divisible by block_size (128)` | harness's `OFT_BLOCK_SIZE=64` ignored (hardcoded PEFT flags) and per-engine TP = all rollout GPUs | orbit `d33c967`: `OFT_BLOCK_SIZE` honored; `Case.rollout_gpus_per_engine` knob |
+| 5 | `async_db` arm identical to `async` | nothing passed `--adapter-double-buffer` | orbit `d33c967`: `ADAPTER_DOUBLE_BUFFER=1` → flag, generic in `launcher.sh` |
+| 6 | OFT async: 400 on `/update_adapter_from_distributed` | engine requires double-buffer for OFT over NCCL (by design) | no code fix; constraint 8 + arm reassignment (A1/A2) |
+| 7 | OFT + prefill graphs: NaN at first sample; colocated: "Breakable CUDA graph is not compatible with memory saver mode"; `tc_piecewise`: torch.compile error in OFT layers | sglang v0.5.16 enabled prefill CUDA graphs by default | orbit `fe9ab9b`: default `--sglang-cuda-graph-backend-prefill disabled`, rejected under OFT; constraint 9; follow-up I-8 |
+| 8 | colocated sync: `pidfd_getfd: Operation not permitted` | CUDA IPC denied on this cluster | `ORBIT_PEFT_ADAPTER_TRANSPORT=cpu_gather` (env.sh default; activate.sh does not set it); constraint 10 |
+| 9 | full-FT async arm emitted only `update_weights_time` | distributed broadcast path recorded payload but never emitted metrics or timeline markers | orbit `2c354ab` + `tests/fast/test_distributed_update_weights_sync_metrics.py` |
+| 10 | latent: streamed OFT loader rebinds `adapter_id` while scanning refs | loop-variable shadowing | sglang `9a6b12d5b` |
+| 11 | EMA smoke: `assert oft_adapter is not None` with IPC transport | IPC push reported success without registering the adapter (silent) | masked by cpu_gather; follow-up I-9: surface engine-side IPC failures |
+
+Also learned: `run_compare.py --profile pilot` is LoRA-async-only (a plumbing smoke); the four-arm
+0.5B qualification is `--profile q25 --pefts oft --modes sync,async_db,async_fullft` plus
+`--pefts lora --modes async` for the single-slot NCCL arm. The full-vocab smoke needs
+`OPD_SERVE_TEACHER=1 OPD_TEACHER_HF_CKPT=… ROLLOUT_NUM_GPUS=1` on a 4-GPU node.
+
+## Follow-ups opened
+
+- **I-8** — make the sglang prefill CUDA-graph replay apply OFT adapters (then the `disabled` default can be revisited for throughput).
+- **I-9** — the IPC PEFT transport must fail loudly when the engine does not register the adapter.
+- Payload accounting caption for A1: colocated points report per-rank sums (engines × adapter), broadcast/NCCL points the logical payload once.

+# Adapter-First Experiments — Phase 0 + Phase 1 Implementation Plan
+
+> **For agentic workers:** REQUIRED SUB-SKILL: Use superpowers:subagent-driven-development (recommended) or superpowers:executing-plans to implement this plan task-by-task. Steps use checkbox (`- [ ]`) syntax for tracking.
+
+**Goal:** Finish Phase 0 (smoke-qualify every launcher the program's Phases 1–2 need) and produce Phase 1's three headline systems deliverables: the A1 sync-cost scaling curve, the A2 rollout-throughput timeline, and the M1 teacher-cost collapse table.
+
+**Architecture:** CPU-side code work first (Tasks 1–7: harness repair, missing launchers, analyzers, dump/compare tooling, the R-2 recipe port) — all verifiable without GPUs via `pytest`, `bash -n`, and `ORBIT_DRY_RUN_ARGV=1` argv dry runs. GPU work (Tasks 8–11) is **USER-RUN**: each such task ends in exact command blocks for the user and a follow-up CPU analysis step for the executor. Nothing in this plan trains to convergence; every GPU run is a short qualification or timing run.
+
+**Tech Stack:** bash launchers over `scripts/lib/launcher.sh`, Python 3 stdlib + matplotlib for analysis, pytest for tests. All Python runs under the workspace venv.
+
+**Spec:** `docs/plans/2026-08-17-adapter-first-experiments-design.md` (this plan implements its Phase 0 remainder and Phase 1: experiments A1, A2, M1; recipe gap R-2; plus two small gaps found while planning — the harness's broken 30B case scripts and the missing adapter-swap OPD smoke).
+
+## Global Constraints
+
+- Repo root: `/lustre/fast/fast/zqiu/clthegoat-orbit/orbit`, branch `orbit-main`. All relative paths below are from this root.
+- Environment (required before ANY python/launcher command, including dry runs): `source /lustre/fast/fast/zqiu/clthegoat-orbit/uv_env_build/activate.sh` (venv → CUDA_HOME → orbit loader → PYTHONPATH, in that order).
+- CPU tests: `python -m pytest <file> -v` under that venv. Run them yourself; report actual output.
+- **GPU commands are USER-RUN.** Never launch training, Ray, or anything touching a GPU. Prepare the exact command block (wrapped in `codexlog NAME ...` — it tees to `/lustre/home/zqiu/log/NAME.log`), present it, and stop until the user reports results.
+- Commits: single short generic sentence, conventional prefix matching `git log` style (`feat(tools):`, `fix(tools):`, `docs(plans):` …). No AI attribution trailers of any kind. Commit via HEREDOC. Never push.
+- Smoke assets (0.5B): HF `/lustre/fast/fast/zqiu/orbit_env_build/models/Qwen2.5-0.5B-Instruct`, Megatron `/lustre/fast/fast/zqiu/orbit_env_build/megatron_checkpoints/Qwen2.5-0.5B-Instruct-torchdist`, data `/lustre/fast/fast/zqiu/orbit_env_build/data/{gsm8k_agentic_train_64.jsonl,math_test_200.jsonl}`.
+- 3B assets (validated): HF `/fast/groups/ei-slm/hf_models/Qwen2.5-3B-Instruct`, Megatron `/lustre/fast/fast/zqiu/clthegoat-orbit/ppo_critic_benchmark_models/Qwen2.5-3B-Instruct_torch_dist`, train data `/lustre/fast/fast/zqiu/clthegoat-orbit/ppo_critic_benchmark_data/openr1_49990/train.jsonl`.
+- Metric key names (verified in `orbit/backends/megatron_utils/update_weight/sync_metrics.py`): `perf/update_weights_time`, `perf/update_weights_pause_time`, `perf/update_weights_payload_bytes`, `perf/update_weights_payload_num_tensors`, `perf/update_weights_num_chunks`. Log metric lines match `run_compare.METRIC_RE`: `perf <rollout>: {…}` with a Python-literal dict payload.
+- Every launcher supports `ORBIT_DRY_RUN_ARGV=1` (prints the python argv and exits 0 before Ray) — this is the CPU-side qualification lever.
+- This cluster's `env.sh` sets `ORBIT_PEFT_ADAPTER_TRANSPORT=cpu_gather`; async-topology adapter sync is NCCL regardless. A1 outputs must state transport per point (spec requirement).
+
+---
+
+### Task 1: Repair the comparison harness for this workspace (broken 30B cases + env shim)
+
+The harness `tools/adapter_runtime_compare/run_compare.py` references `examples/high_precision/run-qwen3-30b-a3b-bf16-math-oft.sh` and `...-math-lora.sh`, which do not exist (the real 30B launchers are the `openr1` family). It also resolves its python from `<env_root>/.venv/bin`, but this workspace's venv lives at `uv_env_build/venv`.
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `tools/adapter_runtime_compare/run_compare.py` (CASES entries for `qwen3_30b`)
+- Test: `tools/adapter_runtime_compare/test_run_compare.py`
+
+**Interfaces:**
+- Produces: every `Case.script` (and `Case.fullft_script` when set) is a path that exists under the repo root; the workspace env shim directory `/lustre/fast/fast/zqiu/clthegoat-orbit/harness-env/.venv` → symlink to `uv_env_build/venv`. Tasks 8–9 invoke the harness with `ORBIT_COMPARE_RUNTIME_ROOT=/lustre/fast/fast/zqiu/clthegoat-orbit/orbit` and `ORBIT_COMPARE_RUNTIME_ENV=/lustre/fast/fast/zqiu/clthegoat-orbit/harness-env`.
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Write the failing test** — append to `tools/adapter_runtime_compare/test_run_compare.py`:
+
+```python
+def test_case_scripts_exist():
+    from tools.adapter_runtime_compare import run_compare
+
+    missing = []
+    for case in run_compare.CASES:
+        for attr in ("script", "fullft_script"):
+            rel = getattr(case, attr, None)
+            if rel and not (run_compare.REPO_ROOT / rel).exists():
+                missing.append(f"{case.model}/{case.precision}: {rel}")
+    assert not missing, f"CASES reference missing launchers: {missing}"
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Run it, expect failure on the two 30B math scripts**
+
+Run: `cd /lustre/fast/fast/zqiu/clthegoat-orbit/orbit && python -m pytest tools/adapter_runtime_compare/test_run_compare.py::test_case_scripts_exist -v`
+Expected: FAIL listing `run-qwen3-30b-a3b-bf16-math-oft.sh` and `run-qwen3-30b-a3b-bf16-math-lora.sh`.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Repoint the two `qwen3_30b` CASES entries** at the launchers that exist: `examples/high_precision/run-qwen3-30b-a3b-bf16-openr1-oft-b32.sh` (or the plain `-oft.sh` if present — pick whichever `ls examples/high_precision/ | grep 30b-a3b-bf16-openr1` shows as the OFT default) and `run-qwen3-30b-a3b-bf16-openr1-lora.sh`. Do not change gpu counts or extra_env. Before committing, open the chosen launchers and confirm they source `scripts/lib/launcher.sh` and require `HF_CKPT`/`MEGATRON_LOAD`/`TRAIN_JSONL` via env like the 4B family (the harness supplies env; hardcoded data paths would be a blocker — if hardcoded, override-ability via env is the fix, applied in the same commit).
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Full test file green**
+
+Run: `python -m pytest tools/adapter_runtime_compare/test_run_compare.py -v`
+Expected: PASS (all tests, including pre-existing registry/arm regressions).
+
+- [ ] **Step 5: Create the env shim and validate plan + dry-run end-to-end (CPU)**
+
+```bash
+mkdir -p /lustre/fast/fast/zqiu/clthegoat-orbit/harness-env
+ln -sfn /lustre/fast/fast/zqiu/clthegoat-orbit/uv_env_build/venv \
+        /lustre/fast/fast/zqiu/clthegoat-orbit/harness-env/.venv
+cd /lustre/fast/fast/zqiu/clthegoat-orbit/orbit
+export ORBIT_COMPARE_RUNTIME_ROOT=$PWD
+export ORBIT_COMPARE_RUNTIME_ENV=/lustre/fast/fast/zqiu/clthegoat-orbit/harness-env
+python tools/adapter_runtime_compare/run_compare.py plan --branches runtime --profile main
+python tools/adapter_runtime_compare/run_compare.py run  --branches runtime --profile pilot --dry-run
+```
+
+Expected: `plan` prints waves for every case with no missing-launcher error; `run --dry-run` exits 0. If dry-run demands env the harness does not set (e.g. a checkpoint path for a rung), record the exact missing variable — it becomes part of Task 8/9's command blocks, not a code change.
+
+- [ ] **Step 6: Commit**
+
+```bash
+git add tools/adapter_runtime_compare/run_compare.py tools/adapter_runtime_compare/test_run_compare.py
+git commit -m "fix(tools): point 30B compare cases at launchers that exist"
+```
+
+---
+
+### Task 2: Complete the A1 rungs — 3B case and full-FT arms for 0.5B/3B/30B
+
+A1's full-model-broadcast arm needs a full-FT async launcher per rung; only 4B has one (`run-qwen3-4b-instruct-2507-bf16-math-fullft-async.sh`, from I-3). The design doc also puts 3B on the A1 x-axis, but the harness has no 3B case.
+
+**Files:**
+- Create: `examples/high_precision/run-qwen2_5-0_5b-bf16-math-fullft-async.sh`
+- Create: `examples/high_precision/run-qwen2_5-3b-bf16-math-fullft-async.sh`
+- Create: `examples/high_precision/run-qwen3-30b-a3b-bf16-openr1-fullft-async.sh`
+- Modify: `tools/adapter_runtime_compare/run_compare.py` (add `qwen25_3b` OFT case; set `fullft_script` on the 0.5B-OFT, 3B, and 30B-OFT cases)
+- Test: `tools/adapter_runtime_compare/test_run_compare.py`
+
+**Interfaces:**
+- Produces: harness model keys `qwen25_05b`, `qwen25_3b`, `qwen3_4b`, `qwen3_30b`, each with modes `sync,async,async_db,async_fullft` runnable. Task 9 selects them via `--models`.
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Extract the I-3 transformation.** Run `diff examples/high_precision/run-qwen3-4b-instruct-2507-bf16-math-oft-async.sh examples/high_precision/run-qwen3-4b-instruct-2507-bf16-math-fullft-async.sh`. The diff is the exact oft→fullft delta (expected: `LAUNCHER_NAME`, `SAVE_DIR`, `PEFT_ARGS` emptied or `--peft-method none`, possibly optimizer/batch tweaks). Record it.
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Write the failing registry test** — append to `test_run_compare.py`:
+
+```python
+def test_a1_rungs_have_fullft_arms():
+    from tools.adapter_runtime_compare import run_compare
+
+    by_key = {(c.model, c.precision, c.peft): c for c in run_compare.CASES}
+    for key in [("qwen25_05b", "bf16", "oft"), ("qwen25_3b", "bf16", "oft"),
+                ("qwen3_4b", "bf16", "oft"), ("qwen3_30b", "bf16", "oft")]:
+        case = by_key.get(key)
+        assert case is not None, f"missing A1 case {key}"
+        assert case.fullft_script, f"A1 case {key} has no fullft_script"
+        assert (run_compare.REPO_ROOT / case.fullft_script).exists()
+```
+
+Run: `python -m pytest tools/adapter_runtime_compare/test_run_compare.py::test_a1_rungs_have_fullft_arms -v` — Expected: FAIL.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Create the three fullft-async launchers** by applying the Step-1 delta to the corresponding OFT sync launchers of each model (`run-qwen2_5-0_5b-bf16-math-oft.sh`, `run-qwen2_5-3b-bf16-math-oft.sh`, and the 30B OFT launcher chosen in Task 1) — same model-args plugin, same data contract, `ORBIT_ENTRYPOINT=train_async.py`, disjoint actor/rollout GPUs copied from each model's async twin where one exists (0.5B/3B have no async twin: copy the 4B async launcher's resource block and scale `GPUS_PER_NODE` to 1 for 0.5B, 2 for 3B; 30B uses 4+4). Every new launcher must end with `source "${ORBIT_ROOT}/scripts/lib/launcher.sh"`.
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Add the `qwen25_3b` case + `fullft_script` fields** in CASES, copying the shape of the existing 0.5B OFT entry (script `examples/high_precision/run-qwen2_5-3b-bf16-math-oft.sh`, `extra_env={"REQUIRE_MEGATRON_LOAD": "1"}`, gpu counts by analogy: total 4, 2+2 async).
+
+- [ ] **Step 5: CPU validation — argv dry run of each new launcher**
+
+```bash
+export HF_CKPT=/lustre/fast/fast/zqiu/orbit_env_build/models/Qwen2.5-0.5B-Instruct
+export MEGATRON_LOAD=/lustre/fast/fast/zqiu/orbit_env_build/megatron_checkpoints/Qwen2.5-0.5B-Instruct-torchdist
+export TRAIN_JSONL=/lustre/fast/fast/zqiu/orbit_env_build/data/gsm8k_agentic_train_64.jsonl
+ORBIT_DRY_RUN_ARGV=1 bash examples/high_precision/run-qwen2_5-0_5b-bf16-math-fullft-async.sh
+```
+
+Expected: prints a `train_async.py` argv containing no `--peft-method oft`, exit 0. Repeat for 3B (3B asset paths) and 30B (any existing HF/Megatron paths from the 30B launcher's own header comments; dry run does not read them). Then `bash -n` all three.
+
+- [ ] **Step 6: Tests green, commit**
+
+Run: `python -m pytest tools/adapter_runtime_compare/test_run_compare.py -v` — Expected: PASS.
+
+```bash
+git add examples/high_precision/run-*fullft-async.sh tools/adapter_runtime_compare/
+git commit -m "feat(examples): full-FT async arms for the A1 sync-cost rungs"
+```
+

+### Task 4: A2 enablement — `EXTRA_TRAIN_ARGS` launcher hook + timeline figure script
+
+A2 needs `--sglang-enable-metrics` on the engines (a valid orbit flag — sglang's `ServerArgs` is embedded under the `--sglang-` prefix in `orbit/backends/sglang_utils/arguments.py`), but launchers expose no way to append args. Add one generic hook; then the figure script the timeline tooling is missing.
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `scripts/lib/launcher.sh` (parse `EXTRA_TRAIN_ARGS` env string → array, after contract validation ~line 47)
+- Modify: `scripts/lib/driver.sh` (append the array in BOTH argv sites — the echo block ~lines 55–74 and the `python3` invocation ~lines 83+; the file's own comment demands the two stay in sync)
+- Create: `tools/rollout_timeline/figure.py`
+- Test: `tests/fast/test_rollout_timeline_figure.py`, `tests/fast/test_launcher_extra_train_args.py`
+
+**Interfaces:**
+- Consumes: `binning.load_jsonl(path)` and `binning.build_timeline(probe_records, event_records, counter=..., bin_s=...)` → `{"bins": [...], "per_engine": {...}, "windows": [...]}`; each bin dict has `t_start`, `t_end`, `tokens_per_s`, `has_gap`, `in_update` (verify exact bin field names against `Bin.to_dict()` in `tools/rollout_timeline/binning.py` before writing the figure code; adjust names to match).
+- Produces: `EXTRA_TRAIN_ARGS="--flag1 --flag2"` env honored by every launcher; CLI `python tools/rollout_timeline/figure.py --probe p.jsonl --events e.jsonl --out fig.png [--counter <spec>] [--bin-s 0.1] [--label NAME]` writing a PNG and printing summary stats.
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Failing hook test** — `tests/fast/test_launcher_extra_train_args.py`:

+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Implement the hook.** In `scripts/lib/launcher.sh`, after the array-contract loop (below `unset _name`):
+
+```bash
+# Optional cross-cutting extra args (string env, deliberately word-split).
+read -r -a ORBIT_EXTRA_TRAIN_ARGS <<< "${EXTRA_TRAIN_ARGS:-}"
+```
+
+In `scripts/lib/driver.sh`, append to BOTH argv lists, after `"${PEFT_ARGS[@]}"`:
+
+```bash
+            ${ORBIT_EXTRA_TRAIN_ARGS[@]+"${ORBIT_EXTRA_TRAIN_ARGS[@]}"}

+### Task 5: Adapter-swap OPD smoke launcher (closes a silent M1 gap)
+
+M1's `adapter:<path>` teacher row has no smoke launcher (the design doc's "all arms have existing smoke launchers" was wrong for this row; every other row checks out).
+
+**Files:**
+- Create: `examples/on_policy_distillation/run-qwen2_5-0_5b-opd-adapter-swap-smoke.sh`
+- Modify: `docs/plans/2026-08-17-adapter-first-experiments-design.md` (M1 section, one clause)
+
+**Interfaces:**
+- Produces: a smoke launcher requiring `OPD_TEACHER_ADAPTER` (path to an OFT adapter checkpoint; Task 8's harness pilot produces one under `tmp_ckpts/adapter_runtime_compare/`) and passing `--opd-teacher "adapter:${OPD_TEACHER_ADAPTER}"`.
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Copy the closest working smoke.** `cp examples/on_policy_distillation/run-qwen2_5-0_5b-opd-free-teacher-smoke.sh examples/on_policy_distillation/run-qwen2_5-0_5b-opd-adapter-swap-smoke.sh`, then edit: `LAUNCHER_NAME=smoke_qwen25_05b_opd_adapter_swap`; add `: "${OPD_TEACHER_ADAPTER:?set OPD_TEACHER_ADAPTER to an OFT adapter checkpoint dir}"` next to the existing required-env lines; replace `--opd-teacher base` with `--opd-teacher "adapter:${OPD_TEACHER_ADAPTER}"`. Keep everything else (`--opd-type megatron`, PEFT student config) identical — same-trunk adapter teachers require the PEFT path, which the free-teacher smoke already satisfies.
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: CPU validation**
+
+```bash
+bash -n examples/on_policy_distillation/run-qwen2_5-0_5b-opd-adapter-swap-smoke.sh

+
+Expected: argv printed containing `--opd-teacher adapter:/tmp/nonexistent-adapter`, exit 0 (existence of the adapter is checked at run time, not dry-run — if the launcher framework rejects the missing path at dry-run, point it at any existing dir instead).
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Correct the design doc.** In the M1 section, change "All arms have existing smoke launchers under `examples/on_policy_distillation/`." to "All arms have smoke launchers under `examples/on_policy_distillation/` (the `adapter:` row's was added 2026-08-19; the rest predate this program)."

+
+**Files:**
+- Create: `orbit/utils/opd_dump.py`
+- Modify: the single site where OPD teacher log-probs are attached to samples (locate with `grep -rn "teacher_log_probs" orbit/backends/training_utils/data.py orbit/backends/megatron_utils/actor.py orbit/rollout/opd_sglang.py` — the attach/assignment point, not the loss-consumption point; there is one per opd-type path, megatron and sglang: instrument both)
+- Create: `tools/compare_opd_teacher_logprobs.py`
+- Test: `tests/fast/test_opd_dump.py`
+
+**Interfaces:**
+- Produces: env `ORBIT_OPD_TEACHER_LOGPROB_DUMP=<path.jsonl>` makes rank 0 append one record per sample for the first `ORBIT_OPD_TEACHER_LOGPROB_DUMP_LIMIT` (default 1) rollouts: `{"rollout": int, "sample_index": int, "response_token_ids": [int...], "teacher_log_probs": [float...]}`. CLI: `python tools/compare_opd_teacher_logprobs.py ref.jsonl cand.jsonl --atol 5e-3` exits 0 iff all matched samples (keyed by `(rollout, sample_index)`, token ids must be identical) are within tolerance, printing the `summarize_reports` summary.

+### Task 7: R-2 — the 3B OPD teacher-cost recipe suite
+
+Port the teacher-variant flag blocks from the 0.5B smokes onto one shared 3B math recipe, following the `ppo_critic_compare_common.sh` wrapper pattern (one common recipe owns science; thin wrappers select only the variant).
+
+**Files:**
+- Create: `examples/on_policy_distillation/opd_teacher_cost_common.sh`
+- Create: `examples/on_policy_distillation/run-qwen2_5-3b-opd-cost-{served,load,adapter,base,ema}.sh` (five wrappers)
+
+**Interfaces:**
+- Consumes: the 3B GRPO math recipe (`examples/high_precision/run-qwen2_5-3b-math-oft-grpo.sh`) as the base; variant flag blocks copied verbatim from the working smokes: `served` ← `run-qwen2_5-0_5b-opd-full-vocab-smoke.sh` (`--opd-serve-teacher --opd-teacher-num-gpus N`), `load` ← `run-qwen2_5-0_5b-opd-mopd-smoke.sh` (`--opd-teacher-load`), `adapter` ← Task 5's smoke, `base` ← `run-qwen2_5-0_5b-opd-free-teacher-smoke.sh`, `ema` ← `run-qwen2_5-0_5b-opd-ema-smoke.sh`.
+- Produces: `OPD_COST_VARIANT` selected by wrapper; env contract identical across wrappers (`HF_CKPT`, `MEGATRON_LOAD`, `TRAIN_JSONL`, plus per-variant extras `OPD_TEACHER_LOAD` / `OPD_TEACHER_ADAPTER`). Task 11 runs these.
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Build the common recipe.** Start from a copy of `run-qwen2_5-3b-math-oft-grpo.sh`. Keep its model/PEFT/optimizer/rollout blocks unchanged. Add a variant dispatch that appends to `RL_ARGS` before `source .../launcher.sh`:
+
+```bash
+: "${OPD_COST_VARIANT:?wrapper must set OPD_COST_VARIANT}"
+case "${OPD_COST_VARIANT}" in
+  served)
+    RL_ARGS+=( --use-opd --opd-kl-coef "${OPD_KL_COEF:-0.1}"
+               --opd-serve-teacher --opd-teacher-num-gpus "${OPD_TEACHER_NUM_GPUS:-1}" ) ;;
+  load)
+    : "${OPD_TEACHER_LOAD:?set OPD_TEACHER_LOAD to a Megatron teacher ckpt}"
+    RL_ARGS+=( --use-opd --opd-kl-coef "${OPD_KL_COEF:-0.1}"
+               --opd-teacher-load "${OPD_TEACHER_LOAD}" ) ;;
+  adapter)
+    : "${OPD_TEACHER_ADAPTER:?set OPD_TEACHER_ADAPTER to an OFT adapter dir}"
+    RL_ARGS+=( --use-opd --opd-kl-coef "${OPD_KL_COEF:-0.1}"
+               --opd-type megatron --opd-teacher "adapter:${OPD_TEACHER_ADAPTER}" ) ;;
+  base)
+    RL_ARGS+=( --use-opd --opd-kl-coef "${OPD_KL_COEF:-0.1}"
+               --opd-type megatron --opd-teacher base ) ;;
+  ema)
+    RL_ARGS+=( --use-opd --opd-kl-coef "${OPD_KL_COEF:-0.1}"
+               --opd-type sglang --opd-teacher self:ema
+               --opd-ema-decay "${OPD_EMA_DECAY:-0.99}" ) ;;
+  *) echo "unknown OPD_COST_VARIANT=${OPD_COST_VARIANT}" >&2; exit 2 ;;
+esac
+LAUNCHER_NAME="qwen25_3b_opd_cost_${OPD_COST_VARIANT}"
+```
+
+**The flag lists above are the porting TARGET, not the source of truth** — before finalizing each case-arm, open the corresponding 0.5B smoke and copy its complete OPD flag block (including `--opd-type`, top-k/full-vocab switches, and any teacher-mem flags), preserving each smoke's exact working combination. In particular the free-teacher smoke's header documents that `--opd-type megatron` rejects PEFT students only for `--opd-teacher load:` — if the 3B `load` variant hits that rejection at dry-run, copy the mopd smoke's opd-type choice for that variant verbatim and note the deviation in the recipe header.
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Five thin wrappers**, each exactly:
+
+```bash
+#!/usr/bin/env bash
+# M1 teacher-cost arm: <variant>. Selects only the variant; the common
+# recipe owns every scientific hyperparameter.
+set -euo pipefail
+SCRIPT_DIR="$(cd -- "$(dirname -- "${BASH_SOURCE[0]}")" && pwd)"
+export OPD_COST_VARIANT=<variant>
+source "${SCRIPT_DIR}/opd_teacher_cost_common.sh"
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: CPU validation — argv parity across wrappers**
+
+```bash
+for v in served load adapter base ema; do
+  HF_CKPT=/fast/groups/ei-slm/hf_models/Qwen2.5-3B-Instruct \
+  MEGATRON_LOAD=/lustre/fast/fast/zqiu/clthegoat-orbit/ppo_critic_benchmark_models/Qwen2.5-3B-Instruct_torch_dist \

+    > /tmp/claude-argv-${v}.txt
+done
+for v in load adapter base ema; do diff /tmp/claude-argv-served.txt /tmp/claude-argv-${v}.txt; done
+```
+
+Expected: every wrapper exits 0; each pairwise diff shows ONLY the variant flag block and `LAUNCHER_NAME`-derived strings. Any other diff line is a recipe bug — fix before committing. Also `bash -n` all six files.
+

+
+The 4B/30B `MEGATRON_LOAD` paths: the HF checkpoints are at `/fast/groups/ei-slm/hf_models/{Qwen3-4B-Instruct-2507,Qwen3-30B-A3B-Instruct-2507}` (verified on disk), but the torch_dist conversions were not found by search — ask the user for the paths their published async runs used. Fallback if none exists: one conversion per rung, e.g. `codexlog convert-4b python tools/convert_hf_to_torch_dist.py --hf-checkpoint ${HF_CKPT} --save <dest>` (check that script's exact flag names with `--help` before presenting; it is the same tool that produced the validated 3B conversion).
+
+Scoping note: this wave deliberately covers only the launchers Phase 1 consumes. The design doc's remaining Phase-0 smokes — search-r1 0.5B and tau-bench (P2), SFT launchers (M3), low-precision rungs (X1/X2) — are qualified at the start of their own phases; the critic-compare suite is already qualified by the completed 2026-08-06 benchmark.
+
+- [ ] **Step 2 (executor, after user reports): Triage every log.** For each run: exit code 0; loss lines finite (`grep -E "loss.*(nan|inf)" <log>` empty); for the async arms, `perf/update_weights_time`, `perf/update_weights_payload_bytes`, `perf/update_weights_pause_time` present (`grep -o "perf/update_weights_[a-z_]*" <log> | sort -u`); for the OPD runs, the OPD path is active (grep the log for `opd`-tagged metric keys or the teacher-plan log line — record which line proves it). Record a qualification ledger table (launcher × result × log path) in `docs/plans/2026-08-17-adapter-first-experiments-design.md` is NOT the place — write it to `docs/reports/_src/2026-08-XX-phase0-qualification.md` (date of completion), and update the design doc's Phase-0 line to point at it.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Commit the ledger + doc pointer**
+
+```bash

+
+### Task 9: A1 measured runs — **USER-RUN**, then executor analysis
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Present the A1 campaign (after Task 8 passes; same env preamble):**
+
+```bash
+# One command per rung; 3 timing repeats, no eval, short runs.

+done

+
+(GPU counts come from the case registry: 0.5B = 2, 3B = 4 [Task 2], 4B = 4 [2+2 async], 30B = 8; total ≈ 40 GPU-h, matching the spec's ~10 GPU-h/point. Caption note from review: launcher-pinned topologies can differ from the case declaration — e.g. the 0.5B fullft-async launcher runs 1+1 inside the case's 4-GPU slice — so A1 figures state the actual per-point topology, read from each run's log, not the registry.)
+
+- [ ] **Step 2 (executor): Summarize.** `python tools/adapter_runtime_compare/analyze_a1.py logs/adapter_runtime_compare --link-gbps <nominal, ask user: NVLink vs IB per layout> --csv docs/reports/_src/a1_sync_cost.csv`. Sanity-check the spec's expected shape: full-FT `update_s` grows with model size toward seconds; adapter arms flat ≈0.1 s; pause time nonzero in ALL arms (constraint 7). Verify the standing guard: each adapter-sync run's log-probability-mismatch metric stays at its baseline (grep the log for the rollout/train logprob-diff key and eyeball the series; a jump after an update event indicates a corrupted push — stop and report, do not average over it).
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Record.** Per-point table (model, mode, transport [async arms: NCCL; any colocated point: cpu_gather per `env.sh`], update_s, payload_mb, pause_s, bw_frac) into `docs/reports/_src/2026-08-XX-a1-sync-cost.md` with the figure (matplotlib from the CSV — model size x-axis, log-y update seconds, one line per mode). Commit as in Task 8 Step 3 (`docs(reports): A1 sync-cost scaling results`).

+
+Caveats for the user in the handoff message: the URL grep pattern is a best guess — if the probe JSONL shows only failed scrapes, run `grep -iE "router|:3[0-9]{4}" <run log> | head` and re-point `--urls` (router URL alone is sufficient); if `/metrics` 404s despite the flag, add `--endpoint server_info` to the probe (coarser bins — figure still valid, note it in the caption).

+done
+```
+
+Expected: ≥2 update windows per trace; the fullft trace shows the deepest/longest throughput trough at each window; db vs single quantifies the I-7 prize (both currently pause — constraint 7; say so in the caption). Iterate `--bin-s` (0.1 → 0.25) if traces are too noisy — the spec budgeted for iteration until the figure is clean.

+```
+
+(SEED is threaded through the common recipe — default 1234 preserved from the base GRPO recipe.)
+
+Operational notes accumulated from the implementation reviews — apply to Step 1's commands:
+- The three `m1-eq-*` runs additionally set `OPD_COST_EQUIVALENCE=1` (recipe knob, affects only the `served` arm: swaps its full-vocab config for the sampled-token external-teacher mode that actually sets `teacher_log_probs`; without it the served dump is structurally empty). Cost-table runs keep the default.
+- `served` runs require `OPD_TEACHER_HF_CKPT=${HF_CKPT}` and occupy 5 GPUs (1 actor + 3 rollout + 1 teacher); the other four arms occupy 4.
+- The adapter arm's teacher must match the recipe's student PEFT config (canonical OFT, block 32) — do NOT reuse an A1 harness adapter (block 128, shape mismatch). Produce one from a short cost-base run's save, or any block-32 3B OFT checkpoint.
+- Delete/rotate `logs/m1_eq_*.jsonl` between runs (the dump appends; the CLI resolves duplicate keys last-wins) and keep the recipe's default single-actor-GPU layout for the equivalence runs (`sample_index` alignment is proven at dp_size=1).
+- M1 table captions (required by review findings): the `load` row's student is full-FT (the only non-PEFT arm — orbit rejects PEFT students with `load:` teachers), so its memory/step-time columns are not directly comparable; `served` uses the full-vocab GKD estimator and the rule-based math grader (estimator cost + grader difference in that row); `ema` uses ray transport without double-buffer (adapter-sync transport differs).
+
+- [ ] **Step 2 (executor): Correctness verdicts**
+
+```bash
+python tools/compare_opd_teacher_logprobs.py logs/m1_eq_base.jsonl logs/m1_eq_load.jsonl   --atol 5e-3
+python tools/compare_opd_teacher_logprobs.py logs/m1_eq_base.jsonl logs/m1_eq_served.jsonl --atol 5e-3
+```
+
+Expected: PASS both (this is what licenses "free" in the M1 table). A token-id mismatch (exit 2) means the arms did not see the same batch — fix seeding before interpreting anything.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3 (executor): Assemble the M1 table.** One row per variant; columns and their sources: extra GPUs (topology: `served` = `--opd-teacher-num-gpus`; `load` = 0 extra GPUs but a second trunk in memory; others 0), extra memory (allocator-counter peak from the log — `grep -o "memory/[a-z_]*" <log> | sort -u` to find the exact keys, then extract; state the key used), extra forwards/step (structural: `base`+KL = 0, `adapter`/`ema` = 1 adapter-swapped forward, `load` = 1 second-model forward, `served` = external), step time (`perf/actor_train_time` or the step-total perf key present in the logs — never compare `timing_s/actor_train` across modes that overlap differently, per the spec's constraint 2 analogue). Write `docs/reports/_src/2026-08-XX-m1-teacher-cost.md` scoped to same-trunk teachers (spec wording), commit (`docs(reports): M1 teacher-cost collapse table`).
+
+---
+
+## Execution notes
+
+- Task order: 1 → 2 → {3, 4, 5, 6, 7 in any order} → 8 → {9, 10, 11 in any order}. Tasks 3–7 are independent of each other.
+- Tasks 8–11 each contain a hard USER-RUN gate: prepare the command block, present it, stop. Do not poll GPUs, do not run `nvidia-smi` loops, do not launch "just a tiny" GPU check.
+- If any dry-run or smoke exposes a wrong assumption in this plan (env var names, checkpoint paths, opd-type combinations), fix the code/launcher, re-run the CPU validation, and note the deviation in the commit — do not silently drift the recipe science (batch sizes, LRs, PEFT config stay untouched throughout).
+- The final Phase-1 write-up (one HTML report over the three deliverables) is out of scope here; it follows via the `html-reports` skill once Tasks 9–11 have results.

+# Orbit CUDA 12.8/H200 Installation Pipeline Implementation Plan
+
+> **For agentic workers:** REQUIRED SUB-SKILL: Use superpowers:subagent-driven-development (recommended) or superpowers:executing-plans to implement this plan task-by-task. Steps use checkbox (`- [ ]`) syntax for tracking.
+
+**Goal:** Add a reproducible, native Conda/uv CUDA 12.8 installation and verification pipeline for Orbit on Slurm H200 nodes without changing the existing CUDA 13.2 workflow.
+
+**Architecture:** A deterministic extractor reads Orbit and pinned backend manifests plus one explicit CUDA 12.8 profile mapping, then generates a committed `pins.env`. A fail-closed shell installer validates source and ABI state before building a prefix-based environment, and a Python verifier audits metadata, editable paths, compiled imports, and optional H200 runtime behavior.
+
+**Tech Stack:** Python 3.12, Bash, Conda prefix environments, uv pip, TOML via `tomllib`, importlib metadata, Git, Slurm, PyTorch 2.11.0+cu128, pytest.
+
+**Spec:** `docs/superpowers/specs/2026-08-19-orbit-cu128-install-pipeline-design.md`
+
+## Global Constraints
+
+- Keep the existing CUDA 13.2 `pyproject.toml`, `uv.lock`, `env.sh`, and guides behaviorally unchanged.
+- Target Python 3.12, CUDA build label `cu128`, Torch 2.11.0+cu128, and NVIDIA H200 compute capability 9.0.
+- Keep CUDA 12.8-only code under `scripts/slurm/setup/cu128/`.
+- Install Orbit, SGLang, Megatron-LM, and Megatron-Bridge editable from validated source directories.
+- Never pull, reset, switch, or repair an existing backend checkout automatically.
+- Never delete, rename, or replace an environment automatically.
+- Do not mutate `/data/home/zeju/miles-orbit/envs/orbit_cu128`; qualification uses a fresh unique prefix.
+- Do not touch the Claude-owned session or Slurm job 43131.
+- Perform package builds and full verification only inside a scheduled H200 allocation.
+- Require explicit user authorization before the expensive fresh-environment qualification job.
+- Generated files must be deterministic, atomically written, and free of credentials and machine-specific paths.
+- Full verification failures are failures, never skipped checks represented as success.
+
+---
+
+## File Structure
+
+### Production files
+
+- Create `scripts/slurm/setup/cu128/extract_pins.py`: parse source manifests, cross-check duplicated refs, render deterministic shell pins, and implement `--write` and `--check`.
+- Create `scripts/slurm/setup/cu128/pins.env`: generated, committed CUDA 12.8/H200 pins and source hashes.
+- Create `scripts/slurm/setup/cu128/install_env.sh`: non-mutating preflight, source validation, Conda/uv installation layers, restart behavior, and verifier handoff.
+- Create `scripts/slurm/setup/cu128/verify_env.py`: metadata/import audit and `--full-h200` runtime checks.
+- Create `scripts/slurm/setup/cu128/README.md`: installation, activation, pin maintenance, verification, and troubleshooting.
+- Modify `README.md`: add one link to the qualified CUDA 12.8/H200 profile without changing the CUDA 13.2 default.
+
+### Test files
+
+- Create `tests/fast/scripts/slurm/setup/cu128/test_extract_pins.py`: manifest parsing, cross-checking, deterministic generation, quoting, atomic writes, and drift behavior.
+- Create `tests/fast/scripts/slurm/setup/cu128/test_verify_env.py`: pin loading, versions, direct URLs, editable paths, source commits, namespace-package rejection, and mocked H200 checks.
+- Create `tests/fast/scripts/slurm/setup/cu128/test_install_env.py`: help/config/install-plan behavior and fail-closed shell preflight contracts without environment mutation.
+
+---
+
+### Task 1: Deterministic pin extraction
+
+**Files:**
+- Create: `scripts/slurm/setup/cu128/extract_pins.py`
+- Create: `scripts/slurm/setup/cu128/pins.env`
+- Create: `tests/fast/scripts/slurm/setup/cu128/test_extract_pins.py`
+
+**Interfaces:**
+- Consumes: Orbit root `pyproject.toml`; exact-commit SGLang `python/pyproject.toml`; optional source-root overrides passed to the CLI.
+- Produces: `collect_pins(repo_root: Path, sglang_root: Path) -> dict[str, str]`; `render_pins(pins: Mapping[str, str], source_hashes: Mapping[str, str]) -> str`; `write_atomic(path: Path, content: str) -> None`; CLI modes `--write` and `--check`.
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Write manifest fixtures and the first failing extraction test**
+
+Add compact TOML fixtures directly in the test so failures identify the exact contract:
+
+```python

+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Run the focused test and confirm the missing module failure**
+
+Run:
+
+```bash
+/data/home/zeju/miles-orbit/envs/orbit_cu128/bin/python -m pytest tests/fast/scripts/slurm/setup/cu128/test_extract_pins.py::test_collect_pins_cross_checks_orbit_backend_refs -v
+```
+
+Expected: FAIL because `scripts.slurm.setup.cu128.extract_pins` does not exist.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Implement TOML parsing, dependency extraction, and duplicate-ref validation**
+
+Create an explicit profile and focused helpers:
+
+```python
+CU128_PROFILE = {
+    "CUDA_PROFILE": "cu128",
+    "PYTHON_VERSION": "3.12",
+    "TORCH_INDEX_URL": "https://download.pytorch.org/whl/cu128",

+def exact_requirement_version(requirements: Sequence[str], name: str) -> str:

+    ]
+    if len(matches) != 1:
+        raise PinError(f"{name}: expected one requirement, found {len(matches)}")
+    exact = [spec.version for spec in matches[0].specifier if spec.operator == "=="]
+    if len(exact) != 1:

+def require_matching_ref(uv_source: dict, release_pin: dict, name: str) -> str:

+    return tested_ref
+```
+
+Populate the output in a fixed key order. Extract Torch and FlashInfer from the pinned SGLang manifest and backend refs from Orbit. Keep CUDA-specific indexes and architecture values in `CU128_PROFILE`.
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Run the focused test and confirm it passes**
+
+Run the same pytest command.
+
+Expected: PASS.
+
+- [ ] **Step 5: Add failing tests for mismatch, deterministic shell rendering, atomic writes, and `--check`**
+
+Add tests with these exact assertions:
+
+```python
+def test_collect_pins_rejects_disagreeing_sglang_refs(tmp_path: Path) -> None:
+    repo, sglang = write_manifests(tmp_path, release_ref="a" * 40, uv_ref="b" * 40)

+
+def test_render_pins_is_deterministic_and_shell_safe(pin_fixture: dict[str, str]) -> None:

+    second = render_pins(dict(reversed(list(pin_fixture.items()))), {"pyproject.toml": "f" * 64})
+    assert first == second
+    assert "AUTO-GENERATED" in first
+    assert "TORCH_VERSION='2.11.0'" in first
+    assert "\n" not in next(line for line in first.splitlines() if line.startswith("TORCH_VERSION="))
+
+
+def test_check_mode_reports_drift_without_writing(tmp_path: Path, capsys: pytest.CaptureFixture[str]) -> None:

+    output.write_text("stale\n")
+    original = output.read_bytes()
+    assert run_check(output, "fresh\n") == 1
+    assert output.read_bytes() == original
+    assert "pins.env is stale" in capsys.readouterr().err
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 6: Run the extractor test file and confirm the new tests fail**
+
+Run:
+
+```bash
+/data/home/zeju/miles-orbit/envs/orbit_cu128/bin/python -m pytest tests/fast/scripts/slurm/setup/cu128/test_extract_pins.py -v
+```
+
+Expected: FAIL on unimplemented rendering/check behavior.
+
+- [ ] **Step 7: Implement deterministic rendering, atomic replacement, hashes, and CLI modes**
+
+Use `shlex.quote`, SHA-256 file hashing, sorted fixed-order output, and `tempfile.NamedTemporaryFile` in the destination directory followed by `os.replace`. The CLI contract is:
+
+```python
+parser = argparse.ArgumentParser()
+mode = parser.add_mutually_exclusive_group(required=True)
+mode.add_argument("--write", action="store_true")
+mode.add_argument("--check", action="store_true")
+parser.add_argument("--repo-root", type=Path, default=REPO_ROOT)
+parser.add_argument("--sglang-root", type=Path)
+parser.add_argument("--output", type=Path, default=DEFAULT_OUTPUT)
+```
+
+When `--sglang-root` is omitted, resolve `ORBIT_WORKSPACE` or the parent of the Orbit repository and append `sglang`.
+
+- [ ] **Step 8: Generate the real `pins.env` from validated manifests**
+
+The active SGLang sibling is already at the Orbit-tested ref. Run:
+
+```bash
+cd /data/home/zeju/miles-orbit/orbit/.worktrees/cu128-install-pipeline
+/data/home/zeju/miles-orbit/envs/orbit_cu128/bin/python scripts/slurm/setup/cu128/extract_pins.py   --write   --sglang-root /data/home/zeju/miles-orbit/sglang
+```
+
+Then run `--check` with the same `--sglang-root`.
+
+Expected: exit 0 and no drift message.
+
+- [ ] **Step 9: Run extractor tests**
+
+Run:
+
+```bash
+/data/home/zeju/miles-orbit/envs/orbit_cu128/bin/python -m pytest tests/fast/scripts/slurm/setup/cu128/test_extract_pins.py -v
+```
+
+Expected: all tests PASS.
+
+- [ ] **Step 10: Commit the extractor, generated pins, and tests**
+
+```bash
+git add scripts/slurm/setup/cu128/extract_pins.py   scripts/slurm/setup/cu128/pins.env   tests/fast/scripts/slurm/setup/cu128/test_extract_pins.py
+git commit -m "feat: generate CUDA 12.8 environment pins"
+```
+
+---
+
+### Task 2: Metadata and source verifier
+
+**Files:**
+- Create: `scripts/slurm/setup/cu128/verify_env.py`
+- Create: `tests/fast/scripts/slurm/setup/cu128/test_verify_env.py`
+
+**Interfaces:**
+- Consumes: generated `pins.env`, current Python environment metadata, and source-root overrides.
+- Produces: `Check(label: str, ok: bool, detail: str)`; `load_pins(path: Path) -> dict[str, str]`; `check_versions(...)`; `check_editables(...)`; `check_sources(...)`; `check_imports(...)`; CLI default metadata/import mode and `--full-h200`.
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Write failing unit tests for pin loading, versions, and editable metadata**
+
+```python
+def test_load_pins_parses_generated_shell_assignments(tmp_path: Path) -> None:
+    pins = tmp_path / "pins.env"
+    pins.write_text("TORCH_VERSION='2.11.0'\nCUDA_PROFILE='cu128'\n")
+    assert load_pins(pins) == {"TORCH_VERSION": "2.11.0", "CUDA_PROFILE": "cu128"}

+        {"orbit": expected},
+        {"orbit": {"url": wrong.as_uri(), "dir_info": {"editable": True}}},
+    )
+    assert checks == [Check("orbit editable source", False, f"expected {expected}, got {wrong}")]
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Run the focused tests and confirm the missing module failure**
+
+Run:
+
+```bash
+/data/home/zeju/miles-orbit/envs/orbit_cu128/bin/python -m pytest tests/fast/scripts/slurm/setup/cu128/test_verify_env.py -v
+```
+
+Expected: FAIL because `verify_env.py` does not exist.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Implement pin loading and pure metadata/source helpers**
+
+Use a strict parser for generated single-line shell assignments rather than sourcing arbitrary shell text. Define:
+
+```python
+@dataclass(frozen=True)
+class Check:
+    label: str
+    ok: bool
+    detail: str = ""
+
+def load_pins(path: Path) -> dict[str, str]:
+    result: dict[str, str] = {}
+    for number, raw in enumerate(path.read_text().splitlines(), start=1):
+        line = raw.strip()
+        if not line or line.startswith("#"):
+            continue
+        key, separator, encoded = line.partition("=")
+        if not separator or not re.fullmatch(r"[A-Z][A-Z0-9_]*", key):
+            raise VerificationError(f"{path}:{number}: invalid pin assignment")
+        parsed = shlex.split(encoded, posix=True)
+        if len(parsed) != 1:
+            raise VerificationError(f"{path}:{number}: expected one shell value")
+        result[key] = parsed[0]
+    return result
+```
+
+Use `importlib.metadata.distribution(name).read_text("direct_url.json")` for editable provenance and `Path.resolve()` for path comparisons.
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Run verifier tests and confirm the initial checks pass**
+
+Run the verifier test file.
+
+Expected: initial tests PASS.
+
+- [ ] **Step 5: Add failing tests for commit checks, namespace imports, and result formatting**
+
+```python

+    source.mkdir()
+    checks = check_sources(

+    assert check == Check("import torch", False, "resolved as namespace package without __file__")
+
+
+def test_print_summary_returns_failure_count(capsys: pytest.CaptureFixture[str]) -> None:

+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 6: Implement source, import, and summary checks plus CLI metadata mode**
+
+Default import targets are `torch`, `transformers`, `sglang`, `megatron.core`, `megatron.bridge`, `transformer_engine`, `flash_attn`, `sgl_kernel`, `apex`, `deep_ep`, `deep_gemm`, and `orbit`.
+
+The CLI accepts:
+
+```python
+parser.add_argument("--pins", type=Path, default=DEFAULT_PINS)
+parser.add_argument("--orbit-root", type=Path, default=REPO_ROOT)
+parser.add_argument("--workspace", type=Path)
+parser.add_argument("--full-h200", action="store_true")
+```
+
+Return exit 1 when any required check fails.
+
+- [ ] **Step 7: Run verifier tests**
+
+Run the verifier test file.
+
+Expected: all metadata/source tests PASS.
+
+- [ ] **Step 8: Commit metadata verification**
+
+```bash
+git add scripts/slurm/setup/cu128/verify_env.py   tests/fast/scripts/slurm/setup/cu128/test_verify_env.py
+git commit -m "feat: audit CUDA environment metadata"
+```

+
+### Task 3: Installer preflight and source validation
+
+**Files:**
+- Create: `scripts/slurm/setup/cu128/install_env.sh`
+- Create: `tests/fast/scripts/slurm/setup/cu128/test_install_env.py`
+
+**Interfaces:**
+- Consumes: `pins.env`, extractor `--check`, workspace/source/environment overrides.
+- Produces: `--help`, `--print-config`, `--print-install-plan`, and normal install modes; shell functions `die`, `require_command`, `resolve_paths`, `check_gpu_preflight`, and `check_source`.
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Write failing tests for help and non-mutating configuration output**
+
+```python
+INSTALLER = REPO_ROOT / "scripts/slurm/setup/cu128/install_env.sh"
+
+
+def run_installer(*args: str, env: dict[str, str] | None = None) -> subprocess.CompletedProcess[str]:
+    merged = os.environ.copy()
+    if env:
+        merged.update(env)
+    return subprocess.run(
+        ["bash", str(INSTALLER), *args],
+        cwd=REPO_ROOT,
+        env=merged,
+        text=True,
+        capture_output=True,
+        check=False,
+    )
+
+
+def test_help_is_login_node_safe() -> None:
+    result = run_installer("--help")
+    assert result.returncode == 0
+    assert "--print-config" in result.stdout
+    assert "--print-install-plan" in result.stdout
+
+
+def test_print_config_uses_prefix_environment(tmp_path: Path) -> None:
+    result = run_installer(
+        "--print-config",
+        env={
+            "ORBIT_WORKSPACE": str(tmp_path),
+            "ORBIT_ENV_PREFIX": str(tmp_path / "envs/orbit_cu128_test"),
+        },
+    )
+    assert result.returncode == 0
+    assert f"environment={tmp_path}/envs/orbit_cu128_test" in result.stdout
+    assert "cuda_profile=cu128" in result.stdout
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Run installer tests and confirm the missing script failure**
+
+Run:
+
+```bash
+/data/home/zeju/miles-orbit/envs/orbit_cu128/bin/python -m pytest tests/fast/scripts/slurm/setup/cu128/test_install_env.py -v
+```
+
+Expected: FAIL because `install_env.sh` does not exist.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Implement argument handling, path resolution, pin sourcing, and safe display modes**
+
+Start with:
+
+```bash
+#!/usr/bin/env bash
+set -euo pipefail
+
+SCRIPT_DIR="$(cd -- "$(dirname -- "${BASH_SOURCE[0]}")" >/dev/null 2>&1 && pwd -P)"
+ORBIT_REPO="$(cd -- "$SCRIPT_DIR/../../../.." && pwd -P)"
+ORBIT_WORKSPACE="${ORBIT_WORKSPACE:-$(dirname "$ORBIT_REPO")}"
+ORBIT_ENV_PREFIX="${ORBIT_ENV_PREFIX:-$ORBIT_WORKSPACE/envs/orbit_cu128}"
+SGLANG_SRC="${SGLANG_SRC:-$ORBIT_WORKSPACE/sglang}"
+MEGATRON_SRC="${MEGATRON_SRC:-$ORBIT_WORKSPACE/Megatron-LM}"
+MEGATRON_BRIDGE_SRC="${MEGATRON_BRIDGE_SRC:-$ORBIT_WORKSPACE/Megatron-Bridge}"
+CONDA_ROOT="${CONDA_ROOT:-/data/shared/conda/miniconda3}"
+
+# shellcheck disable=SC1091
+source "$SCRIPT_DIR/pins.env"
+```
+
+`--help`, `--print-config`, and `--print-install-plan` return before any GPU, Conda, Git mutation, or package command.
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Run installer tests and confirm display tests pass**
+
+Run the installer test file.
+
+Expected: display tests PASS.
+
+- [ ] **Step 5: Add failing tests for source mismatch and install ordering**
+
+Use temporary Git repositories and the print-only plan:
+
+```python
+def test_print_install_plan_orders_torch_before_compiled_extensions(tmp_path: Path) -> None:
+    result = run_installer(
+        "--print-install-plan",
+        env={
+            "ORBIT_WORKSPACE": str(tmp_path),
+            "ORBIT_ENV_PREFIX": str(tmp_path / "env"),
+        },
+    )
+    assert result.returncode == 0
+    lines = result.stdout.splitlines()
+    assert lines.index("layer=torch-cu128") < lines.index("layer=transformer-engine")
+    assert lines.index("layer=transformer-engine") < lines.index("layer=orbit-editable")
+
+
+def test_source_validation_rejects_wrong_commit(tmp_path: Path) -> None:
+    source = make_git_repo(tmp_path / "sglang")
+    result = run_installer(
+        "--check-source",
+        "sglang",
+        str(source),
+        "5" * 40,
+        env={"ORBIT_WORKSPACE": str(tmp_path)},
+    )
+    assert result.returncode != 0
+    assert "sglang commit mismatch" in result.stderr
+    assert "no files were changed" in result.stderr
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 6: Implement fail-closed preflight and source validation**
+
+Preflight must:
+
+- Confirm `SLURM_JOB_ID` is present in normal install mode.
+- Query one GPU and require compute capability `9.0`.
+- Require `nvidia-smi`, `nvcc`, Conda, uv, Git, CMake, Ninja, Cargo, GCC, and G++.
+- Require the CUDA toolkit major/minor to be 12.8.
+- Check free space at the workspace and environment parent.
+- Run extractor `--check`.
+- Validate commit and clean state for each source checkout.
+
+A missing source prints the exact pinned clone command but does not execute it until normal install mode reaches the source preparation step. An existing source mismatch always fails.
+
+- [ ] **Step 7: Run installer tests and shell syntax**
+
+Run:
+
+```bash
+bash -n scripts/slurm/setup/cu128/install_env.sh
+/data/home/zeju/miles-orbit/envs/orbit_cu128/bin/python -m pytest tests/fast/scripts/slurm/setup/cu128/test_install_env.py -v
+```
+
+Expected: syntax success and all tests PASS.
+
+- [ ] **Step 8: Commit installer preflight**
+
+```bash
+git add scripts/slurm/setup/cu128/install_env.sh   tests/fast/scripts/slurm/setup/cu128/test_install_env.py
+git commit -m "feat: add H200 installer preflight"
+```
+

+
+### Task 4: Conda/uv installation layers
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `scripts/slurm/setup/cu128/install_env.sh`
+- Modify: `tests/fast/scripts/slurm/setup/cu128/test_install_env.py`
+
+**Interfaces:**
+- Consumes: validated paths and pins from Task 3.
+- Produces: restartable functions `ensure_environment`, `install_torch_layer`, `install_sglang_layer`, `install_backend_layer`, `install_compiled_layer`, `install_orbit_layer`, and `run_verifier`.
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Add a failing complete install-plan test**
+
+```python
+EXPECTED_LAYERS = [
+    "environment-python312",
+    "torch-cu128",
+    "torch-cudnn",
+    "sglang-runtime",
+    "megatron-editable",
+    "megatron-bridge-editable",
+    "sglang-editable",
+    "transformer-engine",
+    "flash-attention",
+    "sglang-kernel",
+    "apex",
+    "deep-ep",
+    "deep-gemm",
+    "orbit-requirements",
+    "orbit-editable",
+    "abi-reassert",
+    "verify-full-h200",
+]
+
+
+def test_print_install_plan_is_complete_and_stable(tmp_path: Path) -> None:
+    result = run_installer(
+        "--print-install-plan",
+        env={"ORBIT_WORKSPACE": str(tmp_path), "ORBIT_ENV_PREFIX": str(tmp_path / "env")},
+    )
+    assert result.returncode == 0
+    assert result.stdout.splitlines() == [f"layer={name}" for name in EXPECTED_LAYERS]
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Run the plan test and confirm it fails on missing layers**
+
+Run the focused test.
+
+Expected: FAIL with an ordering/content difference.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Implement environment creation and the uv command wrapper**
+
+Use a prefix environment and target its Python explicitly:
+
+```bash
+ensure_environment() {
+    if [[ ! -x "$ORBIT_ENV_PREFIX/bin/python" ]]; then
+        "$CONDA_ROOT/bin/conda" create -y -p "$ORBIT_ENV_PREFIX" "python=$PYTHON_VERSION"
+    fi
+    UV=(uv pip install --python "$ORBIT_ENV_PREFIX/bin/python")
+}
+
+run_uv() {
+    printf '[uv]'
+    printf ' %q' "${UV[@]}" "$@"
+    printf '\n'
+    "${UV[@]}" "$@"
+}
+```
+
+Do not activate Conda inside the installer. Explicit interpreter paths prevent accidental installation into `base`.
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Implement Torch and cuDNN layers**
+
+Install exact Torch packages from `TORCH_INDEX_URL`, inspect Torch metadata for its exact `nvidia-cudnn-cu12` requirement, install that version, and fail if `torch.__version__` does not equal `TORCH_VERSION+cu128`.
+
+Use a temporary override file containing the exact Torch, TorchVision, TorchAudio, CUDA Python, and FlashInfer choices so SGLang resolution cannot replace the cu128 Torch wheel.
+
+- [ ] **Step 5: Implement source preparation and editable backend layers**
+
+For missing repositories only, clone their generated source URLs and detach at exact commits. Existing sources must already pass Task 3 validation.
+
+Install:
+
+```bash
+run_uv -e "$MEGATRON_SRC" --no-deps
+run_uv -e "$MEGATRON_BRIDGE_SRC" --no-deps --no-build-isolation
+run_uv -e "$SGLANG_SRC/python[all]" --override "$override_file"
+```
+
+Write a source-root `.pth` only when an Orbit or backend package is otherwise omitted by editable package discovery. The target must be derived from `site.getsitepackages()`.
+
+- [ ] **Step 6: Implement fixed-order compiled layers**
+
+Use source installs at generated refs for Transformer Engine, FlashAttention, SGLang kernel, Apex, DeepEP, and DeepGEMM. Export SM90-only build variables:
+
+```bash
+export TORCH_CUDA_ARCH_LIST=9.0
+export NVTE_CUDA_ARCHS=90
+export FLASH_ATTN_CUDA_ARCHS=90
+export CMAKE_CUDA_ARCHITECTURES=90a
+export UV_CONCURRENT_BUILDS=1
+export MAX_JOBS="${MAX_JOBS:-16}"
+export CMAKE_BUILD_PARALLEL_LEVEL="${CMAKE_BUILD_PARALLEL_LEVEL:-8}"
+```
+
+Build one ABI-sensitive package at a time. Do not launch package installs in the background.
+
+- [ ] **Step 7: Implement Orbit dependency and editable layers**
+
+Install Orbit's Python requirements through uv with the generated override file so stale `requirements.txt` entries cannot replace the profile's Transformers, Torch, SGLang, router, or FlashInfer choices. Then install Orbit editable with `--no-deps`.
+
+Reinstall or reassert the ABI-sensitive packages after broad dependency resolution, then invoke:
+
+```bash
+"$ORBIT_ENV_PREFIX/bin/python" "$SCRIPT_DIR/verify_env.py"   --pins "$SCRIPT_DIR/pins.env"   --orbit-root "$ORBIT_REPO"   --workspace "$ORBIT_WORKSPACE"   --full-h200
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 8: Run print-plan tests and shell syntax**
+
+Run:
+
+```bash
+bash -n scripts/slurm/setup/cu128/install_env.sh
+/data/home/zeju/miles-orbit/envs/orbit_cu128/bin/python -m pytest tests/fast/scripts/slurm/setup/cu128/test_install_env.py -v
+```
+
+Expected: syntax success and all tests PASS. Do not run normal install mode in this task.
+
+- [ ] **Step 9: Commit installation layers**
+
+```bash
+git add scripts/slurm/setup/cu128/install_env.sh   tests/fast/scripts/slurm/setup/cu128/test_install_env.py
+git commit -m "feat: install the Orbit CUDA 12.8 stack"
+```
+
+---
+
+### Task 5: Full H200 verification and user documentation
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `scripts/slurm/setup/cu128/verify_env.py`
+- Modify: `tests/fast/scripts/slurm/setup/cu128/test_verify_env.py`
+- Create: `scripts/slurm/setup/cu128/README.md`
+- Modify: `README.md`
+
+**Interfaces:**
+- Consumes: metadata checks from Task 2 and an importable Torch runtime.
+- Produces: `check_h200_runtime(torch_module) -> list[Check]`; documented install/update/activation commands; root-guide link.
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Write failing mocked H200 runtime tests**
+
+```python
+def test_h200_runtime_checks_cuda_arch_and_bf16_matmul() -> None:
+    torch = fake_torch(
+        version="2.11.0+cu128",
+        cuda_version="12.8",
+        available=True,
+        device_name="NVIDIA H200",
+        capability=(9, 0),
+        cudnn=91900,
+        nccl=(2, 28, 9),
+    )
+    checks = check_h200_runtime(torch)
+    assert all(check.ok for check in checks)
+
+
+def test_h200_runtime_rejects_blackwell() -> None:
+    torch = fake_torch(
+        version="2.11.0+cu128",
+        cuda_version="12.8",
+        available=True,
+        device_name="NVIDIA B200",
+        capability=(10, 0),
+        cudnn=91900,
+        nccl=(2, 28, 9),
+    )
+    failed = [check for check in check_h200_runtime(torch) if not check.ok]
+    assert any(check.label == "compute capability" for check in failed)
+```
+
+The fake tensor object records `matmul` and `synchronize` calls so the test proves the small BF16 operation is attempted.
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Run the H200 tests and confirm the missing helper failure**
+
+Run the focused test names.
+
+Expected: FAIL because `check_h200_runtime` is not implemented.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Implement full runtime and compiled-symbol checks**
+
+Require:
+
+- `torch.cuda.is_available()`.
+- `torch.version.cuda == "12.8"`.
+- Device name containing `H200`.
+- Capability `(9, 0)`.
+- cuDNN equal to the Torch-declared package version.
+- NCCL availability and a reported version.
+- Required exported symbols from Transformer Engine, FlashAttention, SGLang kernel, Apex, DeepEP, and DeepGEMM.
+- A 512x512 BF16 matrix multiplication and `torch.cuda.synchronize()`.
+
+Keep allocations small and release references after the check.
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Run verifier tests**
+
+Run:
+
+```bash
+/data/home/zeju/miles-orbit/envs/orbit_cu128/bin/python -m pytest tests/fast/scripts/slurm/setup/cu128/test_verify_env.py -v
+```
+
+Expected: all tests PASS.
+
+- [ ] **Step 5: Write the CUDA 12.8 profile README**
+
+Include exact commands:
+
+```bash
+# Inside an approved H200 Slurm allocation:
+cd /data/home/zeju/miles-orbit/orbit
+ORBIT_ENV_PREFIX=/data/home/zeju/miles-orbit/envs/orbit_cu128   bash scripts/slurm/setup/cu128/install_env.sh
+
+# Daily activation:
+source /data/home/zeju/miles-orbit/envs/orbit_cu128/bin/activate
+
+# Metadata audit:
+python scripts/slurm/setup/cu128/verify_env.py
+
+# Full audit inside an H200 allocation:
+python scripts/slurm/setup/cu128/verify_env.py --full-h200
+
+# Maintainer pin refresh:
+python scripts/slurm/setup/cu128/extract_pins.py   --write   --sglang-root /data/home/zeju/miles-orbit/sglang
+python scripts/slurm/setup/cu128/extract_pins.py   --check   --sglang-root /data/home/zeju/miles-orbit/sglang
+```
+
+Document fresh-prefix qualification, restart behavior, no automatic deletion, source mismatch handling, CUDA tag errors, and the distinction from CUDA 13.2.
+
+- [ ] **Step 6: Add one root README link**
+
+Under the existing installation section, preserve CUDA 13.2 as the default and add:
+
+```markdown
+For the Slurm H200 CUDA 12.8 profile, see
+[`scripts/slurm/setup/cu128/README.md`](scripts/slurm/setup/cu128/README.md).
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 7: Run all fast tests and syntax checks for the new profile**
+
+Run only after Slurm job 43131 and any environment mutation process have ended:
+
+```bash
+bash -n scripts/slurm/setup/cu128/install_env.sh
+/data/home/zeju/miles-orbit/envs/orbit_cu128/bin/python -m pytest   tests/fast/scripts/slurm/setup/cu128 -v
+```
+
+Expected: all tests PASS.
+
+- [ ] **Step 8: Commit verification and documentation**
+
+```bash
+git add scripts/slurm/setup/cu128/verify_env.py   scripts/slurm/setup/cu128/README.md   README.md   tests/fast/scripts/slurm/setup/cu128/test_verify_env.py
+git commit -m "docs: document the CUDA 12.8 H200 profile"
+```
+
+---
+
+### Task 6: Fresh-prefix H200 qualification and idempotence
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify only if qualification exposes a source defect: files introduced in Tasks 1-5.
+- Preserve evidence outside Git under the canonical remote run store.
+
+**Interfaces:**
+- Consumes: committed installer revision and an explicitly approved H200 Slurm resource tuple.
+- Produces: authoritative logs, provenance, completion status, a verified fresh environment, and evidence from a second installer run.
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Confirm no conflicting environment mutation**
+
+Run one bounded status snapshot:
+
+```bash
+python3 /Users/zqiu/.codex/skills/control-remote-slurm/scripts/slurm_control.py job 43131
+```
+
+From the local controller, also inspect `claude-orbit-iclr-setup` once. Do not proceed while job 43131 or another process is mutating `/data/home/zeju/miles-orbit/envs/orbit_cu128` or shared package caches.
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Resolve the exact qualification identity and paths**
+
+From the remote worktree:
+
+```bash
+cd /data/home/zeju/miles-orbit/orbit/.worktrees/cu128-install-pipeline
+git rev-parse HEAD
+git status --short
+```
+
+Create a collision-resistant execution ID and these authoritative paths before submission:
+
+```bash
+execution_id="$(date -u +%Y%m%dT%H%M%SZ)-$(git rev-parse --short HEAD)"
+run_dir="${XDG_STATE_HOME:-$HOME/.local/state}/remote-cluster-runs/slurm/orbit/codex-cu128-install-pipeline/$execution_id/fresh-install"
+env_prefix="/data/home/zeju/miles-orbit/envs/orbit_cu128_repro_$execution_id"
+mkdir -p "$run_dir"
+```
+
+Write `provenance.json` with commit, branch, clean state, worktree path, environment prefix, installer command, and source commits before launch. Use `stdout.log`, `stderr.log`, and `completion.status` in `run_dir`.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Request explicit authorization for the expensive H200 job**
+
+Present the exact scheduler resource tuple, source commit, environment prefix, run directory, and expected duration. Stop until the user explicitly approves submission.
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Submit the fresh installation once**
+
+Use the approved project/site resource tuple and make the batch script run:
+
+```bash
+ORBIT_ENV_PREFIX="$env_prefix"   bash scripts/slurm/setup/cu128/install_env.sh
+```
+
+Bind scheduler stdout and stderr to the pre-created run directory, submit once with `sbatch --parsable`, record the job ID in provenance, and publish `completion.status` atomically.
+
+- [ ] **Step 5: Inspect terminal status and snapshot evidence**
+
+After terminal state, query accounting once, snapshot the run directory to the matching local run-store suffix, and inspect exit code, verifier summary, package/source provenance, and environment existence.
+
+Expected: job exit 0 and full H200 verification reports zero failures.
+
+- [ ] **Step 6: Run the idempotence qualification with explicit approval**
+
+Request authorization for one second job against the same fresh environment prefix. Use the same installer commit and a new `idempotence` run label. Record pre/post package metadata and source commits.
+
+Expected: exit 0, zero pin drift, unchanged source commits, unchanged ABI-critical package versions, and full verification success.
+
+- [ ] **Step 7: Update documentation only if observed commands differ**
+
+If qualification requires a documented site command or environment variable already permitted by the spec, update `scripts/slurm/setup/cu128/README.md` with the exact successful value and commit:
+
+```bash
+git add scripts/slurm/setup/cu128/README.md
+git commit -m "docs: record qualified H200 installation"
+```
+
+Do not commit raw logs, run-store files, environment paths, or process-only qualification scripts.
+
+- [ ] **Step 8: Final implementation commit check**
+
+Confirm the branch contains the design, plan, production files, tests, and qualified documentation. Report all commit SHAs, run-store paths, job IDs, environment prefix, full verifier result, idempotence result, and any remaining risks. Do not push or create a PR without separate user authorization.

+# Orbit CUDA 12.8/H200 installation pipeline design
+
+Date: 2026-08-19
+Status: Approved for implementation planning
+Target: Native Conda/uv installation on the Slurm H200 cluster
+
+## Summary
+
+Orbit needs a reproducible CUDA 12.8/H200 installation path alongside its existing CUDA 13.2 workflow. The new path will follow the established Miles pattern:
+
+```text
+Orbit and upstream manifests
+        |
+        v  extract_pins.py --write
+pins.env
+        |
+        v  sourced by
+install_env.sh
+        |
+        v
+verify_env.py
+```
+
+The implementation lives under `scripts/slurm/setup/cu128/`. It does not replace or modify the CUDA 13.2 environment workflow.
+
+## Context
+
+The current Orbit checkout documents a CUDA 13.2 source build driven by `pyproject.toml`, `uv.lock`, and `env.sh`. A separate cluster experiment is building `/data/home/zeju/miles-orbit/envs/orbit_cu128` for CUDA 12.8 on H200.
+
+The experiment has established the following evidence:
+
+- Python 3.12 and Torch 2.11.0+cu128 install successfully.
+- Torch reports CUDA 12.8.
+- An allocated H200 reports compute capability 9.0.
+- A BF16 matrix multiplication and NCCL query succeeded.
+- Transformer Engine 2.14.0 from the pinned source commit is installed.
+
+The environment is not yet a reproducible reference. Orbit, SGLang, Megatron, FlashAttention, SGLang kernels, and several other packages were still absent when inspected. The active environment and its Claude-owned Slurm build are user-owned and must not be modified by this work.
+
+## Goals
+
+- Reproduce the complete Orbit CUDA 12.8/H200 environment from committed source.
+- Keep the CUDA 13.2 workflow intact.

+
+The README is the user entry point. The scripts remain small enough to inspect independently and expose explicit command-line modes rather than hidden behavior.
+
+## Sources of truth
+
+`extract_pins.py` reads three classes of input.
+
+### Orbit-owned manifests
+
+The root `pyproject.toml` supplies:
+
+- Orbit's Python requirement and package version.
+- Tested SGLang, Megatron-LM, and Megatron-Bridge source commits.
+- Shared runtime dependency pins.
+- Source commits for Transformer Engine, DeepEP, DeepGEMM, and other Git dependencies.
+
+The extractor cross-checks duplicate declarations such as `tool.uv.sources` and `tool.orbit.release.backend-pins`. Disagreement is an error.
+
+### Pinned upstream manifests
+
+The SGLang Python manifest at the exact Orbit-tested SGLang commit supplies its Torch and tightly coupled runtime requirements. Backend source directories are read only after their current commits match the Orbit-tested refs.
+
+### CUDA 12.8 profile mapping
+
+Values not represented by an upstream manifest are deliberately maintained in one named mapping inside `extract_pins.py`. This includes:
+
+- CUDA build label `cu128`.
+- PyTorch and compatible wheel index URLs.
+- CUDA toolkit policy.
+- FlashInfer and CUDA Python overrides needed to resolve the SGLang stack.
+- Prebuilt-wheel release coordinates when a source build is not selected.
+- H200/SM90 architecture policy.
+
+Each hand-owned value is labeled as such in generated output. This is equivalent to the hand-owned wheel-stack mapping in the Miles extractor.
+
+## Generated pins contract
+
+`extract_pins.py --write` writes `pins.env` atomically. `--check` regenerates in memory, compares with the committed file, prints the source of each difference, and exits nonzero without changing files.
+
+Generation must be deterministic. The file header names every input manifest and states which fields are extracted or hand-owned. Shell values are safely quoted and contain no credentials or machine-specific paths.
+
+At minimum, `pins.env` records:
+
+- Python, CUDA profile, Torch, TorchVision, and TorchAudio versions.
+- Torch, FlashInfer, and SGLang wheel indexes.
+- Expected cuDNN and NCCL policy.
+- Orbit, SGLang, Megatron-LM, Megatron-Bridge, and Transformer Engine refs.
+- FlashAttention, SGLang kernel, Apex, DeepEP, DeepGEMM, router, and memory-saver versions or refs.
+- Hashes of the relevant Orbit and SGLang manifests.
+- The expected source layout relative to the workspace.
+
+The extractor does not access the network. Updating a remote ref is a separate, explicit maintainer action.
+
+## Source layout
+
+The installer resolves these defaults:
+
+```text
+<workspace>/orbit
+<workspace>/sglang
+<workspace>/Megatron-LM
+<workspace>/Megatron-Bridge
+<workspace>/envs/orbit_cu128
+```
+
+The Orbit checkout is inferred from the installer's location. `ORBIT_WORKSPACE`, `SGLANG_SRC`, `MEGATRON_SRC`, `MEGATRON_BRIDGE_SRC`, and `ORBIT_ENV_PREFIX` may override the defaults.
+
+A missing backend may be cloned from the generated source URL at the pinned commit. An existing backend is never pulled, reset, or checked out automatically. Dirty state, a different commit, or an unexpected remote causes a preflight failure with a corrective command for the user to review.
+
+## Installer flow
+
+`install_env.sh` uses `set -euo pipefail` and performs all non-mutating checks before creating or changing the environment.
+
+1. Resolve the Orbit repository, workspace, backend sources, environment prefix, Conda root, and uv executable.
+2. Source `pins.env` and run `extract_pins.py --check`.
+3. Require a scheduled H200 allocation rather than a login-node build.
+4. Check `nvidia-smi`, compute capability 9.0, CUDA 12.8 compatibility, `nvcc`, driver capability, disk space, Conda, uv, compiler, CMake, Ninja, Cargo, and required system tools.
+5. Validate all source repositories and pinned commits.
+6. Create or reuse the prefix-based Python 3.12 Conda environment.
+7. Install Torch, TorchVision, and TorchAudio from the cu128 index before any Torch ABI-bound package.
+8. Derive and install Torch's declared cuDNN package, then validate the CUDA build tag.
+9. Resolve and install SGLang's dependency tree with generated CUDA 12.8 overrides while preventing replacement of the selected Torch wheel.
+10. Install Megatron-LM, Megatron-Bridge, SGLang, and Orbit editable from the validated source directories.
+11. Install compiled and ABI-sensitive packages in a fixed order: Transformer Engine, FlashAttention, SGLang kernels, Apex, DeepEP, DeepGEMM, and remaining runtime packages.
+12. Install Orbit's Python requirements with profile overrides, then reassert ABI-sensitive pins.
+13. Write any required source-root `.pth` files and environment activation hooks.
+14. Run `verify_env.py` in full H200 mode.
+15. Print the exact activation command, source paths, commits, environment prefix, and verification result.
+
+Temporary constraint and override files are created in a private temporary directory and removed on exit. Installation logs are written only when the caller supplies a log path or redirects output.
+
+## Idempotence and safety
+
+The installer may reuse a compatible prefix and finish interrupted work. It does not claim transactionality across package installation, so verification remains mandatory.
+
+The installer never:
+
+- Deletes or renames an environment.
+- Runs `git pull`, `git reset`, or `git submodule update --remote`.
+- Changes an existing dirty backend checkout.
+- Installs compute-heavy packages on a login node.
+- Starts background package installations.
+- Modifies the active `orbit_cu128` environment unless it is explicitly selected.
+
+A fresh reproducibility run uses a distinct prefix such as `orbit_cu128_repro`. Destructive cleanup remains a manual user action.
+
+## Verification design
+
+`verify_env.py` supports two modes.
+
+### Metadata and import mode
+
+This mode is safe for rerunning without a GPU workload. It checks:
+
+- Installed versions against `pins.env`.
+- Torch's `+cu128` build tag.
+- Direct URL metadata and exact editable source paths.
+- Git commits for Orbit and all backend sources.
+- Required source-root `.pth` files.
+- Imports for Orbit, SGLang, Megatron Core, Megatron Bridge, Transformer Engine, FlashAttention, SGLang kernels, Apex, DeepEP, and DeepGEMM.
+- That imports resolve to real files rather than empty namespace packages.
+- cuDNN, NCCL, CUDA Python, FlashInfer, router, and memory-saver package metadata.
+
+### Full H200 mode
+
+Full mode adds:
+
+- CUDA availability and device-name reporting.
+- Compute capability exactly 9.0.
+- Runtime CUDA 12.8 and expected cuDNN/NCCL checks.
+- Import and symbol checks for compiled Torch extensions.
+- A small BF16 matrix multiplication followed by synchronization.
+- A minimal allocator and collective-library query that does not launch distributed training.
+
+Verification prints one labeled result per check and a final pass/fail count. Any failed required check returns exit code 1. Environmental inability to perform full GPU checks is a failure in full mode, not a skip presented as success.
+
+## Error reporting
+
+Errors state:
+
+- Which layer failed.
+- Expected and observed values.
+- Whether mutation had begun.
+- The environment and source paths involved.
+- A safe resume or corrective command.
+
+ABI mismatches fail before importing large frameworks where possible. Examples include a non-cu128 Torch wheel, a SGLang requirement that would replace Torch, an incompatible compiled wheel, or a backend source commit that differs from `pins.env`.
+
+Secrets, proxy credentials, and private environment values are never printed.
+
+## Documentation
+
+`README.md` documents:
+
+- Required H200 Slurm allocation and toolchain.
+- First installation into a new prefix.
+- Restarting an interrupted installation.
+- Activation and daily-use commands.
+- Pin update and drift-check procedures.
+- Source checkout expectations.
+- Metadata-only and full verification commands.
+- Common CUDA, ABI, source-drift, and incomplete-environment failures.
+- The explicit relationship to the existing CUDA 13.2 workflow.
+
+The root installation documentation gains only a short link to the new profile after the pipeline is qualified.
+
+## Testing strategy
+
+Fast tests cover pure logic without creating an environment:
+
+- Deterministic extraction from representative manifests.
+- Duplicate-pin disagreement.
+- Missing and malformed manifest fields.
+- Shell quoting and atomic generation.
+- `--check` success and drift output.
+- Version, direct URL, editable-path, commit, and namespace-package verification helpers.
+- Clear failure messages for CUDA tag and source mismatches.
+
+Static checks cover shell syntax and Python syntax. No test mocks a successful GPU runtime.
+
+Qualification uses a new remote worktree and a new environment prefix. It runs the installer inside one H200 allocation, preserves durable logs and provenance, runs full verification, then reruns the installer to demonstrate idempotence. This expensive qualification requires explicit user authorization before submission.
+
+## Acceptance criteria
+
+The profile is ready only when:
+
+- `extract_pins.py --write` is deterministic and `--check` passes.
+- Fast tests and syntax checks pass.
+- A fresh environment builds under a new prefix without modifying `orbit_cu128`.
+- Package metadata and editable source paths match generated pins.
+- Full verification passes on an H200.
+- A second installer run introduces no dependency or source drift.
+- The README reconstructs the successful build and activation commands.
+- The committed provenance identifies the source revision and environment used for qualification.
+
+## Implementation sequence
+
+Implementation planning should order work as follows:
+
+1. Extractor and generated pins, with fast tests.
+2. Verification helpers and metadata mode, with fast tests.
+3. Installer preflight and source validation.
+4. Installer package layers and full H200 verification.
+5. Documentation and root-guide link.
+6. Fresh-prefix qualification and idempotence run.
+
+This order keeps version logic testable before any expensive environment mutation and prevents incomplete experimental state from becoming the source of truth.

+
+The harness's 4B LoRA cases used to point at the OFT launcher (which hardcodes
+`--peft-method oft`), so they silently trained OFT; `run-qwen3-4b-instruct-2507-bf16-math-lora.sh`
+now exists and the case table references it.
+
+Two defects in the 3B `served` variant were fixed during the 2026-08-23 sweep: the
+full-vocab scoring byte cap assumed base64 hidden states (the server sends JSON floats,
+~4x larger), and the variant inherited `--reward-key score` although its OPD reward hook
+returns a scalar. `adapter:` teacher paths must point at the directory holding
+`adapter_megatron_tp*_pp*.pt` (`<save>/iter_N/adapter`); `env.sh`'s
+`adapter_first_latest_adapter` resolves it.
+
+Not covered: the 4B INT4 cases (`examples/low_precision/run-qwen3-4b-int4-math-oft.sh`)
+need a W4A16 checkpoint that does not exist yet; the 30B rung needs 8 GPUs.
+
+Outputs land under `logs/adapter_runtime_compare/<campaign>/<run_id>/`
+(`console.log`, `status.json` with `returncode` and `wall_s`, `run.json`).
+
+## Checkpoints
+
+`env.sh` defaults: 0.5B and 3B `torch_dist` conversions exist on disk; the 4B
+`torch_dist` must be produced once (33 s on one B200):
+
+```bash
+source examples/adapter_first/env.sh
+python tools/convert_hf_to_torch_dist.py --hf-checkpoint "$Q3_4B_HF" --save "$Q3_4B_TORCH_DIST"
+```
+
+Write it to node-local disk first if `/lustre/fast` is quota-throttled, then
+copy it to the group path (or export `Q3_4B_TORCH_DIST` to wherever it lives).

+# On-Policy Distillation (OPD)
+
+On-policy distillation trains a student on its own sampled tokens using a
+teacher's log-probs. Orbit supports two objective forms, which share the same
+teacher-producer infrastructure (`teacher_log_probs`) and differ only in how the
+teacher signal enters the advantage:
+
+- **Pure MOPD** (reward-free): `adv_t = teacher_logp_t - student_logp_t`.
+  Selected by `--advantage-estimator on_policy_distillation`.
+- **Blend** (RL reward + distillation): a base estimator's advantage minus
+  `opd_kl_coef * (student_logp - teacher_logp)`. Enabled by `--use-opd
+  --opd-kl-coef <λ>` on top of a reward estimator (`grpo`, `gspo`, `ppo`, ...).
+
+Pure MOPD and blend are **mutually exclusive** (the arg validator errors if both
+are set): the blend is meant to sit on top of a reward estimator, not on top of
+pure distillation.
+
+The teacher's `teacher_log_probs` come from a teacher-forcing forward pass (the
+teacher does **not** generate). The producer is chosen with `--opd-type`:
+
+- `--opd-type megatron`: trainer-side scoring. `--opd-teacher load:<ckpt>`
+  (legacy `--opd-teacher-load <megatron checkpoint>`, optionally
+  `--opd-teacher-ckpt-step <iter>`) loads a second full Megatron model on the
+  training GPUs, scored like the `ref` model; same-base specs
+  (`--opd-teacher base/adapter:<path>/self:*`, see "Teacher-as-Adapter-Slot"
+  below) score without a second model.
+- `--opd-type sglang`: rollout-side scoring (no in-process second
+  checkpoint). With `--opd-teacher-url <http://host:port/generate>` an
+  external SGLang teacher server scores the samples; that mode requires
+  `--custom-rm-path orbit.rollout.opd_sglang.reward_func
+  --custom-reward-post-process-path orbit.rollout.opd_sglang.post_process` to
+  wire the scoring call into orbit's reward pipeline (see below). Without a
+  URL (local mode), the rollout engine scores a same-base teacher itself and
+  those hooks must be left unset (see "Teacher-as-Adapter-Slot" below).
+
+## Megatron teacher recipe
+
+`run-qwen3-4B-opd-megatron.sh` runs pure MOPD with an in-process Megatron
+teacher. The student is Qwen3-4B; point `OPD_TEACHER_LOAD` at a (typically
+larger/better) teacher Megatron checkpoint.
+
+```bash
+HF_CKPT=/path/to/hf/Qwen3-4B-Instruct-2507 \
+MEGATRON_LOAD=/path/to/megatron/Qwen3-4B-Instruct-2507 \
+OPD_TEACHER_LOAD=/path/to/megatron/teacher-checkpoint \
+TRAIN_JSONL=/path/to/math/train.jsonl \
+TEST_JSONL=/path/to/math/test.jsonl \
+bash examples/on_policy_distillation/run-qwen3-4B-opd-megatron.sh
+```
+
+Optional: `OPD_TEACHER_CKPT_STEP=<iter>` selects a specific teacher iteration.
+
+### CPU-free argv inspection
+
+`ORBIT_DRY_RUN_ARGV=1` assembles and prints the python argv, then exits before
+starting Ray (it does not run the python arg parser/validation):
+
+```bash
+ORBIT_DRY_RUN_ARGV=1 DISABLE_EVAL=1 ENABLE_WANDB=0 TRAIN_ROWS=1 \
+HF_CKPT=/path/to/hf/Qwen3-4B-Instruct-2507 \
+MEGATRON_LOAD=/path/to/megatron/Qwen3-4B-Instruct-2507 \
+OPD_TEACHER_LOAD=/path/to/megatron/teacher-checkpoint \
+TRAIN_JSONL=/path/to/math/train.jsonl \
+bash examples/on_policy_distillation/run-qwen3-4B-opd-megatron.sh
+```
+
+Arg parsing + validation is unit-tested separately in `tests/test_opd_args.py`.
+A full GPU training run is a manual smoke test (out of unit-test scope).
+
+## SGLang teacher recipe
+
+`run-qwen3-4B-opd-sglang.sh` runs pure MOPD with an external SGLang teacher
+server -- the teacher is not loaded on the training GPUs. Start a separate
+SGLang server hosting the teacher checkpoint first (e.g. `python -m
+sglang.launch_server --model-path <teacher-hf-checkpoint> --port <port>`),
+then point `OPD_TEACHER_URL` at its `/generate` endpoint:
+
+```bash
+HF_CKPT=/path/to/hf/Qwen3-4B-Instruct-2507 \
+MEGATRON_LOAD=/path/to/megatron/Qwen3-4B-Instruct-2507 \
+OPD_TEACHER_URL=http://<teacher-host>:<port>/generate \
+TRAIN_JSONL=/path/to/math/train.jsonl \
+TEST_JSONL=/path/to/math/test.jsonl \
+bash examples/on_policy_distillation/run-qwen3-4B-opd-sglang.sh
+```
+
+At each rollout, the trainer POSTs the student's sampled token sequence to
+`OPD_TEACHER_URL` for prefill-only scoring (`max_new_tokens=0,
+return_logprob=True, temperature=0` -- the teacher does not generate), then
+trims the returned per-token log-probs to the response span and stores them on
+`teacher_log_probs`. This is implemented in `orbit/rollout/opd_sglang.py` and
+wired through **two** hooks (both required):
+
+- `--custom-rm-path orbit.rollout.opd_sglang.reward_func`: performs the
+  scoring POST per sample during rollout generation and returns `0.0` (pure
+  distillation has no task reward).
+- `--custom-reward-post-process-path orbit.rollout.opd_sglang.post_process`:
+  extracts and trims the teacher log-probs and sets `sample.teacher_log_probs`.
+
+(`reward_func` stashes the raw teacher response in `sample.metadata` rather
+than `sample.reward`, because orbit computes zero-std-reward rollout metrics
+from `sample.reward` *before* the post-process hook runs, and those metrics
+assume a numeric reward.)
+
+**Eval-accuracy/pass-rate is not meaningful in this external-URL hook mode.**
+`reward_func` always returns `0.0`, and orbit shares this hook between train
+and eval, so any
+task-accuracy or pass-rate metric derived from `sample.reward` (`eval/<dataset>`,
+`--eval-pass-k-values`, `--log-passrate`) reports 0 regardless of student
+quality -- the actual training signal is `teacher_log_probs`, not reward.
+`run-qwen3-4B-opd-sglang.sh` therefore disables eval by default
+(`DISABLE_EVAL=${DISABLE_EVAL:-1}`) and drops `--eval-pass-k-values`/
+`--log-passrate` entirely; `TEST_JSONL` is only consulted if you explicitly set
+`DISABLE_EVAL=0`. Contrast with `run-qwen3-4B-opd-megatron.sh`, which uses a
+real `--rm-type math` reward, so its eval-accuracy numbers are meaningful.
+(In sglang local-teacher mode — no `--opd-teacher-url`, see
+"Teacher-as-Adapter-Slot" below — scoring is a built-in rollout stage, the
+reward hook stays real, and eval metrics are meaningful again.)
+
+Same CPU-free argv inspection and mutual-exclusion rules as the Megatron
+recipe apply here.
+
+## Top-k distributional scoring (Rethinking OPD)
+
+`--opd-log-prob-top-k 0` (the default) scores only the *sampled* token — a
+high-variance single-point estimate of the reverse KL. Setting it above zero
+switches the sglang teacher to the top-k recipe from
+[Rethinking On-Policy Distillation](https://arxiv.org/abs/2604.13016): the
+student's own top-k logprobs are harvested during rollout generation, the
+teacher is scored at the same sequence, and a weighted reverse-KL estimate is
+aggregated over a selected token set per response position. The result ships
+as one scalar per token in `sample.opd_reverse_kl`, which the trainer consumes
+directly (both pure MOPD and the blend) — training-side cost is unchanged.
+
+The token set is controlled by `--opd-top-k-strategy`:
+
+| Strategy | Token set |
+|----------|-----------|
+| `only-student` | Student top-k tokens, with teacher logprobs queried for those IDs. |
+| `only-teacher` | Teacher top-k tokens, with student logprobs queried for those IDs. |
+| `intersection` | Tokens appearing in both top-k sets. |
+| `union` | Tokens appearing in either top-k set, with duplicates removed. |
+| `xor` | Tokens appearing in exactly one top-k set. |
+
+`--opd-reward-weight-mode` weights each selected token by student probability
+(`student_p`, default), teacher probability (`teacher_p`), or uniformly
+(`none`). Weights are softmax-normalized over the set except for `xor`.
+
+`--opd-kl-type` selects the KL direction (mirroring NeMo-RL's distillation
+`kl_type`): `reverse` (default) weights by the student distribution and is
+mode-seeking; `forward` weights by the teacher distribution and is
+mass-covering; `mixed` is the convex combination with
+`--opd-mixed-kl-weight` on the forward term (0.5 matches NeMo-RL's default
+recipe). `--opd-reward-weight-mode` applies to the reverse term only — the
+forward term is always teacher-weighted (its natural measure). Forward and
+mixed require `--opd-log-prob-top-k > 0`; the sampled-token path is
+reverse-only. Both directions compose with `--opd-topk-tail-bucket` (the
+forward tail term penalizes teacher mass the student's support misses).
+
+```
+RL_ARGS=(
+    --advantage-estimator on_policy_distillation
+    --opd-type sglang
+    --opd-log-prob-top-k 16
+    --opd-top-k-strategy only-student
+    ...
+)
+```
+
+### Tail-mass bucket (exact truncated KL)
+
+The default weighting renormalizes over the selected token set, so the
+estimate cannot see probability mass the student moves *outside* the top-k.
+`--opd-topk-tail-bucket` instead treats the position as k+1 buckets that sum
+to 1 — the selected ids at their exact full-softmax probabilities, plus one
+aggregated tail bucket — and computes the exact reverse KL over that
+partition. The tail term penalizes the student for pushing mass off the
+support. Requires `--opd-reward-weight-mode student_p` and
+`--opd-top-k-strategy only-student` or `intersection`: the bucket partition
+is only exact when all student logprobs at the selected ids come from a
+single softmax (the rollout harvest). (This is the same idea as NeMo-RL's
+`zero_outside_topk` distillation-loss correction, computed rollout-side.)
+
+## Multi-teacher routing and ensembles
+
+`--opd-teacher-urls NAME=URL[@W][,URL[@W]...]` (sglang mode only) routes each
+sample to a named teacher group instead of the single `--opd-teacher-url`:
+
+- **Routing**: each sample is sent to the group named by
+  `sample.metadata[--opd-teacher-key]` (default key: `opd_teacher`, populated
+  from the dataset's metadata column). The reserved name `default` is the
+  fallback for samples with a missing or unknown name; without a `default`,
+  such samples fail loudly — silently distilling from the wrong teacher is
+  worse than failing the rollout.
+- **Ensembles**: a name mapping to several comma-separated URLs scores the
+  sample against every member in parallel (wall clock = max latency, not the
+  sum) and combines the teachers as a weighted mixture in probability space
+  (logsumexp of weighted logprobs — the logprob of the mixture teacher, not a
+  geometric mean). Per-URL weights default to 1.0. With
+  `--opd-log-prob-top-k > 0`, ensembles require
+  `--opd-top-k-strategy only-student` so every member is scored at the same
+  student token ids.
+
+```bash
+--opd-teacher-urls \
+    math=http://h1:30001/generate \
+    code=http://h2:30002/generate@2,http://h3:30003/generate \
+    default=http://h1:30001/generate
+```
+
+Scoring robustness: `--opd-scoring-timeout-secs` bounds each teacher/student
+scoring request (teachers are often much larger and slower than the student);
+transient failures (timeout, connection error, HTTP 5xx) get one automatic
+jittered retry, 4xx responses never retry.
+
+## Blend variant
+
+To blend distillation onto a reward-based estimator, drop
+`--advantage-estimator on_policy_distillation`, use a reward estimator, and add
+`--use-opd`:
+
+```
+RL_ARGS=(
+    --advantage-estimator grpo
+    --use-opd
+    --opd-kl-coef 1.0
+    --opd-type megatron
+    --opd-teacher-load "${OPD_TEACHER_LOAD}"
+    ...
+)
+```
+
+## Async correction (ICE-POP)
+
+With asynchronous / off-policy rollouts the acting policy drifts from the
+current student, biasing the OPD advantage. `--opd-icepop` (default off) applies
+orbit's existing ICE-POP truncated-importance-sampling gate to the OPD
+advantage: per token it computes the train/rollout importance ratio (the same
+ratio the policy-gradient `icepop`/TIS path uses), reweights in-band tokens by
+that ratio, and zeroes tokens whose ratio falls outside `[--tis-clip-low,
+--tis-clip]`. It reuses those existing thresholds (no new knobs) and applies to
+both pure MOPD and blend. This mirrors NeMo-RL's MOPD ICE-POP correction.
+
+```
+RL_ARGS=(
+    --advantage-estimator on_policy_distillation
+    --opd-type megatron
+    --opd-teacher-load "${OPD_TEACHER_LOAD}"
+    --opd-icepop
+    --tis-clip-low 0.2
+    --tis-clip 5.0
+    ...
+)
+```
+
+`--opd-icepop` needs the train-recomputed log-probs to differ from the rollout
+log-probs, so it is rejected together with `--use-rollout-logprobs` (which would
+make the ratio identically 1).
+
+## Constraints
+
+- The Megatron teacher requires full fine-tuning (`--peft-method none`) only
+  for `--opd-teacher load:<ckpt>` (the second-full-model path, same as legacy
+  `--opd-teacher-load`); that path also requires the CPU weights backuper
+  (enabled by default) and adds a second full-model CPU backup, so account
+  for the extra host memory. Same-base specs
+  (`--opd-teacher base/adapter:<path>/self:*`) require PEFT instead and load
+  no second model.
+- With an external `--opd-teacher-url`, `orbit.rollout.opd_sglang.reward_func`
+  always returns `0.0` and occupies the single `--custom-rm-path` slot.
+  Combining that external-teacher mode with the **blend** form (`--use-opd`)
+  is rejected by `_validate_opd_args` with a `ValueError`: it would require a
+  `reward_func` that both scores the teacher and computes the task reward,
+  which is not wired up by this recipe. The external-URL sglang teacher
+  supports only pure MOPD (`--advantage-estimator on_policy_distillation`);
+  for the blend use `--opd-type megatron` or a same-base local teacher (no
+  `--opd-teacher-url`), where scoring is a built-in rollout stage and the
+  `--custom-rm-path` slot stays free for a real task reward.
+- In external-URL sglang-teacher mode, task-accuracy/pass-rate eval is **not
+  meaningful**: `reward_func` always returns `0.0` and is shared between train
+  and eval, so any `eval/<dataset>`, pass@k, or `--log-passrate` metric reports
+  0 regardless of student quality -- the training signal is
+  `teacher_log_probs`, not reward. `run-qwen3-4B-opd-sglang.sh` disables eval
+  by default accordingly. The Megatron recipe and sglang local-teacher mode
+  use a real reward (`--rm-type math` here), so their eval works as expected.
+
+## Teacher-as-Adapter-Slot (same-base teachers)
+
+When the teacher shares the student's frozen base, no second model and no
+teacher server are needed — the teacher is a named adapter:
+
+- `--opd-teacher base`: the frozen base itself (with `--kl-coef`/KL on, the
+  ref forward is reused: the teacher is literally free).
+- `--opd-teacher adapter:<path>`: base + a frozen adapter checkpoint (SFT /
+  expert / RL-trained). Trainer-side scoring swaps the adapter tensors in for
+  the teacher forward; sglang-side scoring targets the engine's reserved
+  `orbit_teacher` slot via per-request `lora_path`.
+- `--opd-teacher self:ema` / `self:lag`: an EMA (`--opd-ema-decay`) or lagged
+  (`--opd-self-teacher-interval`) snapshot of the student adapter. With
+  `--opd-type sglang`, add `--opd-promote-interval N` to push the buffer to
+  the engine slot every N steps (the EMA updates once per rollout training
+  step). This enables mean-teacher MOPD and iterated self-distillation at
+  adapter cost.
+
+Same-base specs require PEFT (`--peft-method != none`); with full fine-tuning
+use `--opd-teacher load:<ckpt>` (the legacy second-model path,
+`--opd-teacher-load` is equivalent). Local sglang teachers specifically require
+OFT: unified LoRA is single-active, so it cannot route the student, frozen base,
+and teacher independently. OFT `self:*` teachers also require
+`--adapter-double-buffer` to stay disabled because double buffering has only one
+fixed active adapter slot; use Ray transport for a distributed rollout or IPC
+for a colocated rollout instead. Frozen `base` and `adapter:<path>` teachers
+remain supported with double buffering. In sglang local mode (no
+`--opd-teacher-url`), scoring is a built-in rollout stage: `--custom-rm-path`
+stays free, so real task rewards compose with distillation (`--use-opd`
+blend now works with sglang teachers) and eval accuracy is meaningful again.

+# Every variant's OPD flag block below is ported verbatim from its 0.5B

+#
+# Two variants require documented deviations from "keep PEFT unchanged" to

+#           whenever PEFT is enabled. Matches the mopd smoke's own
+#           PEFT_ARGS=().
+#   ema  -- --peft-distributed-transport ray, and no --adapter-double-buffer:
+#           local --opd-type sglang self-teacher scoring rejects
+#           --peft-method oft + --adapter-double-buffer (NCCL double-
+#           buffering has one fixed active adapter slot, so promoting
+#           orbit_teacher would clobber the student adapter instead of
+#           creating an independently routable teacher). Matches the ema
+#           smoke's own PEFT_ARGS.
+# served also overrides the base rollout block's --custom-rm-path /
+# --custom-reward-post-process-path to the OPD full-vocab reward hooks:
+# _validate_opd_args requires that exact pairing whenever
+# --teacher-score-mode full_vocab is set (the math task-reward path is

+#
+# OPD_COST_EQUIVALENCE (default 0) -- served-only m1-eq equivalence knob.

+# for served and the M1 correctness leg's base<->served comparison cannot
+# run. OPD_COST_EQUIVALENCE=1 swaps served's full-vocab flag set for the
+# sampled-token external-teacher configuration that DOES set
+# .teacher_log_probs (post_process's non-full-vocab branch, ~line 1135):
+# drops --teacher-score-mode full_vocab and its full-vocab-only companions
+# (--loss-type opd_jsd_loss, --opd-jsd-beta, --opd-log-topk-overlap,
+# --opd-jsd-pointwise-clip), and adds --advantage-estimator
+# on_policy_distillation plus the pure-MOPD eps-clip/gamma/lambd block the
+# other four variants already use, so needs_opd_teacher() actually engages
+# the OPD teacher machinery. --opd-serve-teacher, the teacher GPU/mem flags,
+# the OPD reward hooks, and --rm-type math are unchanged either way. Flag
+# set ported from the sampled-token external smoke
+# (run-qwen2_5-0_5b-opd-sglang-smoke.sh) and cross-checked against

+# accepts --opd-serve-teacher + the same custom-rm-path/post-process hooks

+# student is trained to match a (typically larger/better) teacher on its own

+# forward pass -- it does NOT generate.
+#
+# Teacher production is selected with `--opd-type megatron --opd-teacher-load`.
+# Note: pure MOPD (`--advantage-estimator on_policy_distillation`) and the blend
+# (`--use-opd`) are mutually exclusive -- do not pass `--use-opd` here. For the
+# blend form instead, use `--advantage-estimator grpo --use-opd --opd-kl-coef <λ>`
+# on top of a reward estimator (see README).
+#
+# The Megatron teacher requires full fine-tuning (peft none) and the CPU weights

+# Qwen3-4B-Instruct-2507 BF16 on-policy distillation (OPD) with an external
+# SGLang teacher server. Self-contained launcher.
+#
+# OPD objective: pure MOPD (reward-free). The advantage estimator
+# `on_policy_distillation` sets adv_t = teacher_logp_t - student_logp_t, so the
+# student is trained to match a (typically larger/better) teacher on its own
+# sampled tokens. Unlike the Megatron-teacher recipe, the teacher here is NOT
+# loaded on the training GPUs: it is scored by POSTing the student's rollout
+# token sequence to a separately-hosted SGLang server for prefill-only scoring
+# (max_new_tokens=0, return_logprob=True, temperature=0 -- no generation).
+# Start that teacher server yourself (e.g. `python -m sglang.launch_server
+# --model-path <teacher-hf-checkpoint> --port <port>`) and point
+# OPD_TEACHER_URL at its /generate endpoint before launching this script.
+#
+# Teacher production is selected with `--opd-type sglang --opd-teacher-url`,
+# wired through orbit's custom-reward hooks:
+#   --custom-rm-path orbit.rollout.opd_sglang.reward_func                  (scores via the teacher server)
+#   --custom-reward-post-process-path orbit.rollout.opd_sglang.post_process (extracts teacher_log_probs)
+#
+# Note: pure MOPD (`--advantage-estimator on_policy_distillation`) and the
+# blend (`--use-opd`) are mutually exclusive -- do not pass `--use-opd` here.
+# The blend form is not supported at all with the sglang teacher (see README /
+# orbit/utils/arguments.py::_validate_opd_args) -- the sglang teacher already
+# occupies the single `--custom-rm-path` reward slot and always returns 0.0,
+# so blend requires `--opd-type megatron` instead.
+#
+# CAVEAT -- eval/pass-rate is not meaningful in this mode: `reward_func`
+# (orbit.rollout.opd_sglang.reward_func) always returns `0.0` -- it is shared
+# between train and eval, so any task-accuracy or pass-rate metric derived
+# from `sample.reward` (eval/<dataset>, pass@k, --log-passrate) reports 0
+# regardless of student quality. The actual training signal is
+# `teacher_log_probs`, not reward. Eval is disabled by default below
+# (DISABLE_EVAL=1); contrast with run-qwen3-4B-opd-megatron.sh, which uses a
+# real `--rm-type math` reward, so its eval-accuracy numbers are meaningful.

+# Search-R1 PPO
+
+This example adds Search-R1 style reasoning plus retrieval rollouts to Orbit.
+Use it through `--custom-generate-function-path examples.search_r1.generate_with_search.generate`
+and `--custom-rm-path examples.search_r1.generate_with_search.reward_func`.
+
+The custom rollout uses Orbit's `/generate` payload helper for every model call,
+so PPO rollout logprobs and LoRA/OFT adapter request fields are handled by the
+same path as other Orbit rollouts.
+
+Default productization settings:
+
+- `--search-r1-backend local`
+- `--search-r1-topk 3`
+- `--search-r1-max-turns 2`
+- `--n-samples-per-prompt 8` or higher for effectiveness runs
+- `--target-modules all-linear` for LoRA and OFT
+- `--oft-block-size 32`
+
+The local backend expects a retrieval server compatible with Search-R1's
+`/retrieve` API:
+
+```json
+{"queries": ["query"], "topk": 3, "return_scores": false}
+```
+
+and a response shaped like:
+
+```json
+{"result": [[{"document": {"contents": "\"Title\"\nPassage text"}}]]}
+```
+
+## Launchers

+# Orbit SFT Examples
+
+Orbit is RL-first, but supervised fine-tuning is available as an explicit mode
+with `--training-mode sft`. SFT uses the same Megatron training, checkpointing,
+dynamic batching, PEFT, and logging stack as RL. Plain SFT runs read labeled
+examples directly from the global dataset and do not start SGLang rollout
+engines unless you configure generation-based evaluation.
+
+## Data Format
+
+Use chat-format JSONL. Each row must contain a `messages` field with the full
+conversation, including assistant target turns:
+
+```json
+{"messages":[
+  {"role":"user","content":"Question: Where would a person store soup?\n\nChoices:\nA. bowl\nB. shoe\n\nChoose the best answer."},
+  {"role":"assistant","content":"A. bowl"}
+]}
+```
+
+The launchers pass `--input-key messages`. The SFT rollout uses Orbit's
+multi-turn loss-mask generator, so prompt/system tokens are masked out and loss
+is computed only on assistant target tokens.
+
+## SFT Mode
+
+`--training-mode sft` applies SFT-safe defaults during argument validation:
+
+- sets `--loss-type sft_loss`;
+- disables advantage and return computation;
+- forces `--n-samples-per-prompt 1`;
+- switches the default rollout function to
+  `orbit.rollout.sft_rollout.generate_rollout`;
+- disables rollout engines for plain training runs without generation eval.
+
+## Convert Datasets
+
+The launchers default to `SFT_DATA_ROOT=${ORBIT_ROOT}/data/sft` and read
+`<dataset>/train.jsonl`.
+
+```bash
+python tools/convert_sft_dataset_to_orbit.py \
+  --dataset numinamath \
+  --output-dir data/sft/numinamath \
+  --splits train test \
+  --streaming \
+  --force
+
+python tools/convert_sft_dataset_to_orbit.py \
+  --dataset magicoder \
+  --output-dir data/sft/magicoder \
+  --splits train \
+  --streaming \
+  --force
+
+python tools/convert_sft_dataset_to_orbit.py \
+  --dataset commonsenseqa \
+  --output-dir data/sft/commonsenseqa \
+  --splits train validation \
+  --force
+
+python tools/convert_sft_dataset_to_orbit.py \
+  --dataset socialiqa \
+  --output-dir data/sft/socialiqa \
+  --splits train validation \
+  --force
+
+python tools/convert_sft_dataset_to_orbit.py \
+  --dataset scienceqa-text \
+  --output-dir data/sft/scienceqa-text \
+  --splits train validation test \
+  --force
+```
+
+Use `--max-rows N` for smoke datasets. ScienceQA rows with images are skipped
+by default because these launchers are text-only.
+
+## Split JSONL
+
+Use `tools/split_sft_jsonl_partitions.py` when training multiple adapters on
+disjoint deterministic data shards for later adapter merging.
+
+```bash
+python tools/split_sft_jsonl_partitions.py \
+  --input data/sft/magicoder/train.jsonl \
+  --output-dir data/sft/magicoder_partitions \
+  --partitions 4 \
+  --seed 1234 \
+  --stratify-key metadata.lang
+```
+
+The splitter writes `P*/train.jsonl` plus a manifest with row counts, checksums,
+and configured stratification counts. The default stratification key is
+`metadata.dataset`.
+
+## Launch
+
+Qwen2.5 full-parameter SFT:
+
+```bash
+HF_CKPT=/path/to/hf/Qwen2.5-0.5B-Instruct \
+MEGATRON_LOAD=/path/to/megatron/Qwen2.5-0.5B-Instruct \
+ENABLE_WANDB=0 \
+bash examples/sft/run-qwen2_5-0_5b-bf16-sft-numinamath.sh
+```
+
+Llama-3.1-8B OFT SFT:
+
+```bash
+HF_CKPT=/path/to/hf/Llama-3.1-8B \
+MEGATRON_LOAD=/path/to/megatron/Llama-3.1-8B \
+ENABLE_WANDB=0 \
+bash examples/sft/run-llama3_1-8b-bf16-oft-sft-magicoder.sh
+```
+
+Override `TRAIN_JSONL` to point at any converted file, or set `SFT_DATA_ROOT` to
+move all defaults at once.

+
+Each launcher is standalone and inlines its model, dataset, and training
+arguments. Qwen launchers accept `SFT_PEFT_ARGS` and `SFT_EXTRA_ARGS` for local
+experiments. Llama launchers enable OFT by default.

+# Tau-bench PPO
+
+This example adds a raw `/generate` Tau-bench compatibility rollout for Orbit
+PPO. It keeps Tau-bench as an optional dependency and imports it only when a
+rollout starts.
+
+The generator sets `sample.reward` directly from the Tau-bench environment, so
+launchers do not need a separate reward-model path.
+
+## Dataset
+
+For the legacy Tau-bench package used by the Miles reference, export task-index
+JSONL files with:
+
+```bash
+python examples/tau_bench/tau_tasks.py --output-dir /path/to/tau_data
+```
+
+Each row contains an `index` prompt. Launchers should use:
+
+```bash
+export TRAIN_DATA=/path/to/tau_data/retail_train_tasks.jsonl
+export TEST_DATA=/path/to/tau_data/retail_dev_tasks.jsonl
+```
+
+## User Simulator
+
+Tau-bench drives the user simulator through an external provider. Configure it
+with environment variables:
+
+```bash
+export TAU_USER_MODEL_PROVIDER=gemini
+export TAU_USER_MODEL=gemini-2.5-flash-lite
+export GEMINI_API_KEY=...
+```
+
+For DeepSeek:
+
+```bash
+export TAU_USER_MODEL_PROVIDER=deepseek
+export TAU_USER_MODEL=deepseek-chat
+export DEEPSEEK_API_KEY=...
+```
+
+## Launchers
+
+The Qwen3-4B-Instruct-2507 PPO launchers are:
+
+```bash
+bash examples/tau_bench/run-qwen3-4b-instruct-2507-bf16-tau-bench-ppo-full.sh
+bash examples/tau_bench/run-qwen3-4b-instruct-2507-bf16-tau-bench-ppo-lora.sh
+bash examples/tau_bench/run-qwen3-4b-instruct-2507-bf16-tau-bench-ppo-oft.sh
+```
+
+Required paths:
+
+```bash
+export HF_CKPT=/path/to/Qwen3-4B-Instruct-2507
+export MEGATRON_LOAD=/path/to/Qwen3-4B-Instruct-2507-torchdist
+export TRAIN_DATA=/path/to/retail_train_tasks.jsonl
+export TEST_DATA=/path/to/retail_dev_tasks.jsonl
+```
+
+Useful overrides:
+
+```bash
+export TAU_BENCH_ENV=retail
+export TAU_BENCH_TASK_SPLIT=train
+export NUM_ROLLOUT=500
+export ROLLOUT_BATCH_SIZE=32
+export N_SAMPLES_PER_PROMPT=8
+export GLOBAL_BATCH_SIZE=256
+export SGLANG_SERVER_CONCURRENCY=32

+# training (no CP, no PP) and dp-only rollout (--rollout-num-gpus-per-engine 1).
+#
+# Sizing vs. the 0.6B smoke: that script runs DP-only (TP=1) on 2 actor GPUs.
+# A 4B dense model needs the memory headroom TP sharding buys, so this recipe
+# defaults to TP=2 on the same 2 actor GPUs (GPUS_PER_NODE=2 -> DP=1, TP=2),
+# matching the TP=2 default already used for Qwen3-4B(-Instruct-2507)
+# elsewhere in this repo (examples/tau_bench/qwen3_4b_tau_bench_ppo_common.sh).
+# Rollout GPUs go from 2 to 4 (dp=4 sglang engines, still TP=1 each) so
+# generation throughput keeps up with the larger, slower model. Total
+# footprint: 6 B200s (2 actor + 4 rollout), non-colocated.

+"""Supply `megatron.post_training.checkpointing` when Megatron-LM is not installed.
+
+Megatron's `get_model()` does this, unconditionally when nvidia-modelopt is
+present (`megatron/training/training.py:1324`)::
+
+    if has_nvidia_modelopt:
+        from megatron.post_training.checkpointing import has_modelopt_state
+
+`has_nvidia_modelopt` is True in this environment -- nvidia-modelopt 0.44.0 is
+installed for the NVFP4/INT4 work -- but the installed `megatron` namespace
+package carries only `bridge`, `core` and `training`. `post_training` lives in
+the full Megatron-LM distribution, which is not a dependency here.
+
+The result was that **every full fine-tuning run** died with
+`ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'megatron.post_training'`, while every
+PEFT run was fine: `_build_model` routes PEFT through
+`_setup_peft_model_via_bridge` and never reaches Megatron's `get_model()`.
+Found by the coverage probe on 2026-07-31, on the first FullFT arm ever run.
+
+**Why a shim rather than installing Megatron-LM.** The only Megatron-LM checkout
+on this filesystem is core 0.16.0rc0 against the installed 0.18.0rc0. Both
+`megatron/` trees are PEP-420 namespace packages, so putting that checkout on
+PYTHONPATH merges them -- and since PYTHONPATH precedes site-packages,
+`megatron.core` would silently resolve to 0.16. Downgrading the entire core to
+supply one predicate is a worse trade than the bug.
+
+**Why this is not a stub.** `has_modelopt_state` answers a question about the
+checkpoint on disk, and for a sharded checkpoint that question is "is there a
+`modelopt_state/` directory in the load dir" -- which this file answers exactly.
+Where it cannot answer correctly it raises rather than guessing; see the
+function's docstring.

+    for the student mass that falls outside that support).
+
+    Padded slots (see `orbit.rollout.opd_sglang._TOPK_PAD_LOGPROB`) carry a teacher
+    log-prob of -1e4, so `teacher_topk_logprobs.exp()` underflows to exactly 0.0 in
+    float32 -- used below as an exact (not approximate) validity mask over the K
+    dimension. Both the forward and the uncorrected-reverse sums only ever touch valid
+    slots, so a padded column changes nothing (czy's `_topk_forward_kl`, generalized to
+    all three directions; their `renormalize` branch is dropped per spec).
+
+    The same float32 underflow floor sits at log-prob ~-103.97 (ln(2**-149), the
+    smallest denormal): a genuine (non-pad) teacher entry that far below the peak also
+    reads as invalid and is dropped from the support the same way a pad slot is, with
+    the reverse-direction correction re-flooring it at `_TOPK_LOG_INF` (-100.0) instead
+    of its true value -- unreachable at any realistic `k` (the teacher's own top-k
+    entries are never that improbable), but reachable once `k` approaches the full
+    vocabulary.
+
+    Forward (teacher-weighted, `--opd-kl-type forward`):
+        `sum_K valid * teacher_prob * (teacher_log_prob - student_log_prob)`
+    `zero_outside` is structurally inert here -- the sum never leaves the teacher's own
+    reported support -- so passing it true is a caller mistake we warn about once
+    (Python's default warning filter already dedupes by message+location) rather than
+    silently ignore.
+
+    Reverse (student-weighted, `--opd-kl-type reverse`):
+        `sum_K valid * student_prob * (student_log_prob - teacher_log_prob)`
+    truncated the same way, but `student_prob`/`student_log_prob` keep gradients (the
+    teacher side is always detached -- it is frozen). Without `zero_outside`, this
+    silently drops all of the student's probability mass that falls *outside* the
+    teacher's reported top-k, which lets the optimizer push probability there for free.
+    `zero_outside=True` adds a correction that makes the result exactly equal to the
+    full-vocabulary reverse KL against a teacher extended with a `log_inf=-100.0`
+    log-prob at every out-of-support token id (see the closed-form test for the
+    from-scratch full-vocab derivation this mirrors):

+    full-vocabulary self-term (note: negative). `calculate_log_probs_and_entropy`'s
+    "entropy" output was verified (see the closed-form correction test, which pins this
+    sign) to already be the *standard* positive entropy `-sum_v p_v log p_v`, so
+    `H_all = -entropy` here, not `entropy` directly.
+
+    Mixed (`--opd-kl-type mixed`, `--opd-mixed-kl-weight` on the forward term, NeMo's
+    convention): `w * forward + (1 - w) * reverse`, where `reverse` already includes its

+(whose values depend on KV-cache state, chunked prefill, and batch
+composition), re-score each finished sample with one prefill-only request
+(``max_new_tokens=0, return_logprob=True``) after flushing the radix/KV cache.
+Provenance is recorded in ``sample.metadata["rollout_log_probs_source"]``.

+Independently valuable outside true-on-policy: TIS/ICE-POP/OPD all consume
+``rollout_log_probs``, and this removes engine-side variance from that signal.

+Orbit deviation from miles: ``--recompute-logprobs-via-prefill`` stands alone
+(miles asserts it implies ``--true-on-policy-mode``); the true-on-policy
+contract derivation (design doc Phase 3) will require it in mode runs instead.

+"""Group-wise pairwise GenRM rewards: rank a rollout group with a judge model.
+
+The batch-mode counterpart of ``orbit.rollout.llm_judge`` (which grades one
+sample at a time): here the judge compares the *whole n-samples-per-prompt
+group* pairwise and each response's reward is its win-rate. This is the hook
+shape NeMo-RL's ``genrm_simple_agent`` uses for the Nemotron rlhf/ifbench
+blends, whose rows carry the grading rubric in ``metadata["principle"]``::
+
+    --custom-rm-path orbit.rollout.genrm_judge.reward_func
+    --group-rm
+    --judge-base-url http://<judge-host>:<port>
+
+Mechanics:
+
+- ``--group-rm`` makes ``generate_and_rm_group`` hand the full group to
+  ``batched_async_rm``, which calls this ``reward_func(args, samples)``.
+- Pairs are judged round-robin in a single order (K*(K-1)/2 calls, fired
+  concurrently), deterministically (temperature 0). A win scores 1 point and
+  an explicit tie scores 0.5 for each side. The judge is constrained to a
+  strict JSON verdict; service and protocol failures are surfaced as typed
+  grader infrastructure errors.
+- reward_i = wins_i / (K_valid - 1) in [0, 1]. Relative rewards like these
+  only make sense within a group; combine with a group-baselined advantage
+  estimator (GRPO).
+- Empty responses are excluded from judging and score 0.0; a group with fewer
+  than two valid responses is neutral (0.5 for the valid one) — zero
+  advantage, no gradient.
+
+Evaluation caveat: with ``--n-samples-per-eval-prompt 1`` every eval group is
+a singleton, so eval rewards are a constant 0.5 — use ``llm_judge`` score
+mode for judge-scored eval instead.

+"""LLM-judge reward hooks: grade rollouts with an external judge model.
+
+Any instruct model served by sglang (or any OpenAI-compatible endpoint) acts as
+the judge; each sample is graded per-request through orbit's custom-reward
+hook::
+
+    --custom-rm-path orbit.rollout.llm_judge.reward_func
+    --judge-base-url http://<judge-host>:<port>
+    --judge-mode equivalence   # or: score
+
+Modes (mirroring the per-sample judge agents in NeMo-RL's Nemotron recipes):
+
+- ``equivalence``: the judge decides whether the response's final answer is
+  equivalent to the reference ``sample.label`` (useful where exact string /
+  boxed matching fails on freeform short answers). Reward 1.0 / 0.0.
+- ``score``: pointwise 0-10 quality grade against the question (and the
+  reference answer when a label is present), normalized to [0, 1] — a
+  GenRM-lite pointwise signal.
+
+Service and protocol failures are surfaced as typed grader infrastructure
+errors. A reply missing its required marker receives one fresh, marker-only
+re-evaluation; a second malformed reply remains a protocol error. Group-wise
+*pairwise* GenRM comparison is not implemented here — it needs cross-sample
+orchestration and a different hook shape.
+
+Judging is deterministic (temperature 0). The judge sees the *last user turn*
+of the prompt as the question.

+"""SGLang external-teacher scoring for On-Policy Distillation (OPD).
+
+A separate SGLang server hosts the teacher. We POST the student's rollout
+token sequence for prefill-only *scoring* (``max_new_tokens=0,
+return_logprob=True, temperature=0`` -- no generation) to ``args.opd_teacher_url``
+and extract the teacher's per-response-token log-probs from the response,
+storing them on ``sample.teacher_log_probs``.
+
+With ``--opd-log-prob-top-k > 0`` (port of miles [2/N] af28a061d, following the
+practical recipe from "Rethinking On-Policy Distillation"), scoring instead
+forms a top-k token set per response position (strategy: only-student /
+only-teacher / intersection / union / xor over the student's and teacher's
+top-k), cross-scores both models on the selected tokens, and stores a
+precomputed weighted reverse-KL estimate on ``sample.opd_reverse_kl`` that the
+trainer consumes directly.
+
+Wired via orbit's existing custom-reward hooks::
+
+    --custom-rm-path orbit.rollout.opd_sglang.reward_func
+    --custom-reward-post-process-path orbit.rollout.opd_sglang.post_process
+
+Design note -- this differs from slime's ``slime/rollout/on_policy_distillation.py``:
+slime's ``reward_func`` stores the raw sglang response dict directly on
+``sample.reward``, and ``post_process_rewards`` reads it back via
+``sample.get_reward_value(args)``. That does not carry over unmodified to
+orbit: orbit computes zero-std-reward metrics from ``sample.reward``
+(``orbit/ray/rollout.py::_compute_zero_std_metrics``, called from
+``_log_rollout_data``) *before* ``_convert_samples_to_train_data``/
+``post_process`` ever runs, and those metrics call
+``round(sample.get_reward_value(args), 1)`` -- which raises on a dict. Orbit's
+own ``--custom-rm-path`` docs also state the contract explicitly: "The
+function should have the signature `def custom_rm(args, sample) -> float`"
+(``orbit/utils/arguments.py``). So ``reward_func`` stashes the raw teacher
+response in ``sample.metadata`` for ``post_process`` to consume while keeping
+``sample.reward`` numeric. Full-vocab OPD additionally computes the ordinary
+task reward for source-recipe-compatible train reward/pass-rate metrics; its
+direct loss does not consume that reward. Sampled-token OPD remains
+task-reward-free and returns ``0.0``.

+"""Blend reward router: dispatch each rollout group to its grader by agent name.
+
+The Nemotron-RL-Ultra blends are heterogeneous — every row names its grader in
+``agent_ref.name`` (NeMo Gym's per-row agent binding; see NeMo-RL
+``experience/rollouts.py``). Orbit binds one reward mechanism per run, so this
+router is the missing translation: conversion carries ``agent_ref.name`` into
+``metadata["agent"]``, and the router maps agent names onto orbit's verified
+graders::
+
+    --custom-rm-path orbit.rollout.reward_router.reward_func
+    --group-rm
+    [--judge-base-url ...]        # required for judge/genrm-routed rows
+    [--reward-router-unmapped zero|error]
+
+Routing table (v1 — the graders orbit has GPU-verified):
+
+- ``math_with_judge_simple_agent``, ``equivalence_llm_judge_simple_agent``
+  -> per-sample LLM-judge equivalence (``llm_judge``, needs ``label``)
+- ``genrm_simple_agent``, ``genrm_simple_agent_reasoning_off``
+  -> group-wise pairwise GenRM (``genrm_judge``, rubric in metadata)
+- ``code_gen_simple_agent``
+  -> sandboxed code execution (``sandbox.code_rm``, unit_tests in metadata)
+
+Groups are per-prompt (n samples of one row), so the agent is uniform within a
+group — the router validates that and dispatches whole groups. Rows whose
+agent has no orbit grader yet (swe, tool-use, ...) are zero-rewarded with a
+warning by default (train on the covered subset, honestly) or rejected with
+``--reward-router-unmapped error``. Per-grader failures fail soft to 0.0.

+"""Rule-based graders for Nemotron-RL-Ultra single-turn agents.
+
+NVIDIA decomposed most "agentic" Ultra training into single-turn rows whose
+grading needs only a parser and a comparator — no environment:
+
+- ``*single_step_tool_use_with_argument_comparison_agent``: the row carries
+  ``expected_action``. For ``function_call`` actions the model's emitted tool
+  call (Qwen ``<tool_call>{...}</tool_call>`` format) must match by name and
+  deep-equal parsed arguments. For ``message`` actions the model is rewarded
+  for NOT calling a tool (a non-empty text reply) — the call-vs-respond
+  decision, deliberately not grading text similarity (that would need a
+  judge).
+- ``mcqa_simple_agent``: extract the answer letter with the row's
+  ``template_metadata.output_regex`` (last match wins) and compare
+  case-insensitively with ``expected_answer``.
+- ``structured_outputs_simple_agent``: parse the response's JSON (last
+  ```json fence, else the outermost braces) and validate against the row's
+  ``schema_str`` with jsonschema.

+
+Closes the unmapped ~25-30% of rlvr rows (minus math_formal_lean, deferred:
+it needs a Lean 4 + Mathlib toolchain for ~0.9% of rows). Three classes:
+
+Rule-based (sync, pure):
+- ``grade_boxed_answer``: last ``\\boxed{...}`` (else last non-empty line)
+  vs expected — numeric-aware compare. Covers ``rdkit_chemistry_agent``
+  (expected_answer is precomputed in the row; no RDKit needed) and
+  ``reasoning_gym_simple_agent`` (v1 exact-answer; the official
+  reasoning-gym per-dataset scorers accept more formats — documented
+  simplification).
+- ``grade_nvarc_transductive``: parse the boxed grid (rows by newlines,
+  values by spaces) and exact-match ``expected_output``.
+- ``grade_verifier_spec``: execute the row-embedded ``verifier`` spec —
+  ``string_match`` (every pattern must regex-search) and ``regex``
+  (each verify_regex must match >= verify_min_matches times, multiline).
+  Covers ``citation_format`` and ``freeform_formatting``.
+- ``grade_calendar``: parse the last JSON event list; every expected event
+  must exist with the right duration, start within [min_time, max_time],
+  honor before/after constraints, and no two events may overlap.
+
+Sandboxed (async):
+- ``grade_nvarc_inductive``: extract the model's Python transform, run it
+  on ``test_input`` under the code-RM executor, compare printed grid to
+  ``expected_output``.
+
+Judge-backed (async, need --judge-base-url):
+- ``grade_rubric_judge``: multichallenge — every rubric item is asked as a
+  YES/NO question against the conversation + response; reward 1.0 iff all
+  pass.
+- ``grade_policy_judge``: jailbreak family — the judge checks the response
+  followed the row's expected response policy (refusal_with_explanation,
+  hard_refusal_with_helplines, engagement_with_disclaimer,
+  hard_refusal_no_redirection).
+
+``ns_tools`` (verifier_type math_with_judge) and ``abstention`` route to the
+existing equivalence judge — no new code, just router entries.

+"""SWE patch reward: apply the rollout's diff in the instance container, run tests.
+
+Rung 2a of the SWE harness (design doc
+docs/plans/2026-07-07-swe-harness-scoping.md): single-turn patch RL over the
+Nemotron-RL-Ultra ``swe`` blend. Each row ships a prebuilt per-instance
+Docker image (repo at ``base_commit`` with deps installed) plus the SWE-bench
+verification contract. The reward:
+
+1. extract the last unified diff from the response (```diff fence, falling
+   back to a raw ``diff --git`` tail);
+2. copy the container's repo to a host scratch dir (SIF images are
+   read-only; binding the writable copy back over the repo path preserves
+   installed-package paths);
+3. ``git apply`` the model patch (fallback ``patch -p1``), apply the row's
+   ``test_patch``;
+4. run FAIL_TO_PASS + PASS_TO_PASS under pytest with a wall-clock timeout;
+5. reward 1.0 iff everything passes — the SWE-bench standard, binary.
+
+Containers run ``apptainer exec --no-home --contain`` (the default config
+binds $HOME — the host environment must not leak in). SIFs are looked up in
+``--swe-rm-sif-cache`` by sanitized image name; use
+``tools/prepare_swe_subset.py`` to build the subset + cache.

+  state lives in the HOST-side writable repo, so each command is a fresh
+  ``exec`` against the same binds (persistence via filesystem, ~1-2 s
+  startup per command; environment/processes do not persist across turns).
+- run: ``apptainer exec`` per shell command, with timeout and output-tail
+  truncation before injection into the model's context.
+- verify: apply the row's ``test_patch`` in the session repo (a conflict
+  with model-edited test files fails verification — anti-cheat by
+  construction) and run FAIL_TO_PASS + PASS_TO_PASS under pytest.

+adapted from slime-agentic (AgentFlow/MemAgent/ToolOrchestra) — the same

+- the reward (SWE-bench verification of the final session repo state) is set

+"""Held-out negative log-likelihood evaluation for SFT runs.
+
+Orbit's built-in eval generates completions and grades them. Every SFT figure
+in the LoRA-without-regret study is held-out *test NLL*, so this adds a
+forward-only eval that reuses the actor's existing ``compute_log_prob``
+primitive rather than introducing a second forward path.
+
+Everything in this module is pure Python/torch: no megatron, no CUDA, no
+``torch.distributed``. That is deliberate. The two defects this eval can
+plausibly carry -- dropping rows, and reducing wrongly across ranks -- both
+live in logic that is testable on CPU, and they are tested there
+(``tests/fast/utils/test_eval_nll.py``). The megatron-side wiring lives in
+``MegatronTrainRayActor.compute_eval_nll``.
+
+Three invariants this module exists to enforce:
+
+1. **Every row is scored.** ``get_data_iterator`` computes
+   ``num_local_samples // num_local_gbs`` -- floor division -- so a 100-row
+   held-out file at ``global_batch_size=32`` would silently score 96 rows and
+   drop 4, and the reported NLL would become a function of the training batch
+   size. :func:`plan_eval_nll_microbatches` keeps the short final group, and
+   the caller asserts that the number of scored samples equals the number of
+   rows read.
+
+2. **The reduction is token-weighted**, not sample-weighted: total negative
+   log-prob over all *scored* tokens divided by the number of scored tokens.
+   That is what HF's ``Trainer`` reports, and gate G2 compares the two numbers
+   directly. A sample-weighted mean would disagree by a factor that varies with
+   the length distribution.
+
+3. **Only scored tokens count.** A response span can contain unscored tokens
+   (interleaved user turns in a multi-turn conversation), exactly the tokens HF
+   marks ``label == -100``. :func:`accumulate_nll` weights by the loss mask, so
+   train and eval agree token-for-token.
+
+Because a token-weighted mean is *not* the mean of per-shard token-weighted
+means, :func:`accumulate_nll` returns accumulators (:class:`NllStats`) instead
+of a pre-divided float. Sum them across data-parallel ranks, divide once.

+"""The Llama-3.1 chat template, pinned.
+
+Llama-3.1-8B *base* ships no `chat_template`, so `apply_chat_template` raises and
+`MultiTurnLossMaskGenerator` cannot even be constructed against it. The base vocab
+does contain the chat control tokens (<|start_header_id|> 128006, <|end_header_id|>
+128007, <|eot_id|> 128009), so the Instruct template applies cleanly with no vocab
+resize.
+
+Pinned rather than read from the Instruct checkpoint at runtime for two reasons: the
+Instruct model is not a dependency of an experiment that fine-tunes base, and an
+upstream template revision must never silently change what tokens we score.
+
+The template's `date_string` default is the LITERAL "26 Jul 2024", not strftime_now,
+so rendering is deterministic across days. Verified when pinning; the accompanying
+test asserts it stays that way.

+"""Declarative OPD teacher pools: several named frozen teachers, mixed transports.

+Dev-native replacement for the ultra tier's manifest/pool pair (whose identity
+chain is welded to the qualification preflight). A pool manifest declares named
+teachers of two kinds:
+
+- ``url``:    an externally served endpoint, used as-is.
+- ``served``: a HF checkpoint this job serves itself -- one extra sglang model
+              entry per teacher, exactly like ``--opd-serve-teacher`` (same
+              scoring-correctness server flags), on GPUs after the rollout
+              bucket.
+
+After the served engines start, every teacher resolves to a routing entry
+``name=url@weight`` and the pool is handed to the EXISTING multi-teacher
+router (``--opd-teacher-urls`` semantics: per-sample routing via
+``sample.metadata[--opd-teacher-key]``, weighted ensembles per name, the
+reserved name ``default`` as fallback).

+"""Match OFT block size to LoRA rank by trainable-parameter count.
+
+OFT stores one skew-symmetric vector per block. Per
+``megatron/bridge/peft/oft_layers.py`` (``OFTRotationModule.__init__``, see
+``self.oft_r = nn.Parameter(torch.zeros(num_blocks, n_elements, ...))``):
+
+    n_elements  = block_size * (block_size - 1) // 2
+    num_blocks  = d_in // block_size          (or 1 when block_share=True)
+    oft_r shape = (num_blocks, n_elements)
+    params      = num_blocks * n_elements
+                = (d_in // block_size) * block_size * (block_size - 1) // 2
+
+which is exactly ``d_in * (block_size - 1) / 2`` when ``block_size`` divides
+``d_in`` (verified against the real parameter shape above, not assumed).
+
+LoRA stores two low-rank factors:
+
+    params      = rank * (d_in + d_out)
+
+Equating the two continuous expressions (ignoring the integer floor in
+``d_in // block_size``, which only matters once we snap to an actual
+divisor) gives the ideal block size
+
+    b = 1 + 2 * rank * (d_in + d_out) / d_in
+
+which reduces to ``b = 1 + 4 * rank`` when ``d_in == d_out``.
+
+Megatron-Bridge's ``OFTRotationModule`` requires ``block_size`` to divide
+``d_in`` and silently snaps a non-dividing value to the nearest divisor via
+its ``_find_nearest_divisor`` static method (``oft_layers.py``, around
+lines 417-423 and 465-473). ``nearest_divisor`` below mirrors that method
+byte-for-byte in behaviour, including its tie-breaking rule (a strict ``<``
+comparison, so among equidistant candidates whichever is visited first in
+the ``i = 1..isqrt(n)`` scan — pairing ``(i, n // i)`` at each step — wins).
+Because the snap can move the realized parameter count away from the ideal,
+``match_report`` exposes the *realized* ratio so no OFT arm is described as
+"matched" to its LoRA counterpart in prose when the snap actually left it far
+off. **The snap hurts most at SMALL rank**, not large: the ideal block size is
+``1 + 4·rank`` for a square weight, so the absolute gap to the nearest divisor
+stays ~O(1) while the relative gap goes as ``1/(1 + 4·rank)``. Measured on
+Llama-3.1-8B's square attention shape (d_in = d_out = 4096, whose divisors are
+powers of two), the realized ratio is 0.750 at rank 1, 0.938 at rank 4, 0.984 at
+rank 16 and 1.000 at rank 512.
+
+All of the above is the count for ONE rotation, which is what legacy OFT
+(``--oft-type oft``) builds per module. Canonical OFT -- what every RL launcher
+in this tree actually runs -- builds one rotation per **output slice** of a fused
+module, so a module total is ``slices · d_in · (b−1) / 2``. See
+``OFT_ROTATION_SLICES`` for the evidence and for what counting it the other way
+cost; ``oft_param_count`` stays per-rotation, and
+``oft_param_count_for_modules`` applies the slice factor.
+
+**A single global block size cannot match LoRA across mixed shapes**, which is
+the constraint that shapes any matched-parameter OFT experiment. A rotation's
+count is ``d_in·(b−1)/2`` and does not depend on ``d_out`` at all, while LoRA's is
+``rank·(d_in + d_out)``. So the per-module ratio scales as
+``slices · (b−1) / (2·rank·(1 + d_out/d_in))``, and one shared ``b`` therefore
+starves modules with large ``d_out/d_in`` while overfeeding the rest. On
+Llama-3.1-8B at ``b = 64`` against rank 16 the realized per-module ratios are
+**2.362** (``linear_qkv``, three rotations over a shared input), 0.984
+(``linear_proj``), **0.492** (``linear_fc1``, two rotations but ``d_out = 7·d_in``)
+and **1.531** (``linear_fc2``). The two fused modules move in OPPOSITE directions,
+so slice-awareness widens the spread rather than closing it. Searching every
+divisor of 4096 and 14336 cannot fix it: the best achievable all-modules ratio is
+0.996 at rank 4 but drifts to 1.049 at rank 16 and 1.065 by rank 256. Megatron's
+``--oft-block-size`` is one integer, so per-module block sizes are not
+expressible through the CLI either.
+
+The way out is to invert the match: fix the block size and solve for the **LoRA
+rank** with the same parameter count (``oft_matched_lora_rank``). Rank is a much
+finer lattice than the divisors of ``d_in``, so this lands within a few percent
+for ``b >= 32`` -- 0.962 to 1.014 on all-modules -- and it is what lets an OFT arm
+and a LoRA arm be compared at genuinely equal capacity.
+
+What this does NOT rescue is matching two OFT *placements* to each other.
+Attention-only carries four rotations (three on ``linear_qkv``) against
+MLP-only's three, and ``linear_fc1`` snaps to a divisor of 4096 while
+``linear_fc2`` snaps to one of 14336, so no single block brings them together:
+the best available lands ~26% high at every attention block size. A placement
+comparison has to quote ``oft_block_size_matching_params``' realized ratio rather
+than describe the pair as matched.

+      - Truncated sequences use the same zero bootstrap as terminated ones:

+"""Orbit integration for ``megatron.bridge`` Nemotron-H (Mamba+Attention hybrid).
+
+This plugin is a non-invasive drop-in that:
+
+1. Registers :class:`OrbitNemotronHBridge` for ``NemotronHForCausalLM`` (overriding
+   the upstream :class:`NemotronHBridge`) so MoE variants (Nano-30B-A3B,
+   Super-120B-A12B) round-trip correctly through the HF↔Megatron
+   ``mapping_registry`` and get the right ``moe_router_*`` fields on the
+   provider.
+2. Patches :class:`~megatron.core.transformer.transformer_layer.TransformerLayer`
+   so hybrid layers whose ``self_attention`` / ``mlp`` is an ``IdentityOp``
+   don't blow up on the 2-tuple unpack in ``_forward_attention`` /
+   ``_forward_mlp``.
+3. Patches :class:`~megatron.core.models.mamba.MambaModel` ``forward`` to
+   transparently swallow the ``loss_mask`` kwarg so orbit's generic training
+   loop (which was designed around ``GPTModel``) can keep passing it
+   unconditionally.
+
+Importing this module is idempotent — safe to import multiple times.

+# tiny-block series previously rode the v0.5.9 line (9c83ae8be + 48 commits);
+# it moved here because orbit's own peft transport speaks the v0.5.16 unified
+# peft_method/adapter_* wire API, which the v0.5.9 line does not have.
+#
+# The kernel package tracks the SAME rev now, and is RENAMED: the sgl-kernel/
+# subdirectory publishes `sgl-kernel` 0.3.21 on the v0.5.9 line but
+# `sglang-kernel` 0.4.5 here, so the dependency name had to change with the pin
+# (uv errors with "metadata name `sglang-kernel` does not match given name
+# `sgl-kernel`" otherwise). The subdirectory= path is still sgl-kernel.
+#
+# It no longer lags sglang either. On the v0.5.9 line the two could diverge
+# because that subdirectory's tree was identical across the range, which kept the
+# 852 MB compiled extension cached across syncs. Across the v0.5.9 -> v0.5.16
+# move the tree genuinely differs, so pairing new Python with old kernels would
+# be an ABI mismatch. Expect one rebuild.
+#
+# What this range buys, and must not be given back:
+#
+# * Power-of-two OFT blocks from 4 through 1024, BS16+ on the tensor-core dot
+#   paths, QKV BS4/8 defaulting to the measured legacy path.
+# * Tiled OFT rotations above 128, for BOTH the fused QKV/gate_up kernel and the
+#   un-fused `gemm_oft_r`/`sgemm_oft_r` pair that `o_proj`/`down_proj` take. The
+#   fused kernel alone is not enough: an OFT arm with --target all reaches
+#   gemm_oft_r on every layer and dies with `OutOfResources ... Required:
+#   2228224` several minutes into a rollout.
+# * A streamed-load chunk limit accounted in EXPANDED bytes. Accounting it in
+#   COMPACT bytes understates the real allocation (expanded full blocks plus
+#   Cayley intermediates, ~10x) and row-parallel groups bypassed the limit
+#   entirely -- every OFT adapter update then transiently took 7-9 GB. Colocated
+#   with a paused ~20 GB KV arena whose resume runs immediately after, that OOM'd
+#   in torch_memory_saver's cuMemCreate on the 4th rollout. Measured on
+#   2026-08-03: 8.8 GB per update before, 0.6 GB after, 10/10 rollouts clean.
+#
+# Moved 05cd76b4d -> 51845dc4a (2026-08-20) so the manifest names the build that
+# was actually validated. The numerical-equivalence report's reproducibility
+# block records `orbit_env_v2` as "05cd76b4d + fixes 40784883e, 51845dc4a
+# deployed": every Stage A/B verdict was measured on an env that already carried
+# both fixes on top of the old pin, but a fresh `uv sync` against that pin did
+# NOT reproduce it. The two fixes are the whole reason to move:
+#
+# * 40784883e -- propagate resolved adapter ids into cached request sub-objects.
+#   Without it a disk-loaded OFT adapter silently served BASE-model weights, so
+#   an eval that read like a trained-adapter number was not one.
+# * 51845dc4a -- key the radix cache by OFT adapter id. Without it a cached
+#   prefix from one adapter can be reused for another (the `extra_key`
+#   contamination path). RL is protected by its rollout shape; serving is not.
+#
+# The other three commits in the range (2406bf248, 4ca61eea9, a5def08d0) are test
+# repointing and a chore -- no kernel change. That is why the older note in
+# scripts/lora_regret/env_v0516.sh calls the gap equivalent: it was written when
+# the tip was a5def08d0, and it is no longer true of the current tip.

+# One short run per distinct code path, sequentially, on a single 8xH100 node.
+#
+#   bash scripts/lora_regret/coverage_probe.sh
+#
+# Answers two questions and refuses to answer a third:
+#
+#   1. Does every code path actually run?  A path is
+#      (launcher, dataset, method, target modules) -- everything that is
+#      genuinely different code rather than the same code at a different tensor
+#      shape. Rank, OFT block size and batch size are collapsed: launching r512
+#      after r256 re-runs a path that already passed. Target modules are NOT
+#      collapsed, because `linear_fc1` is Orbit's fused gate+up and wrapping it
+#      is not the same code as wrapping `linear_qkv`.
+#
+#      That is 17 runs where one-per-(task,method) was 24 -- and it covers MORE,
+#      because the 24 never probed e4place's MLP placement under RL.
+#
+#   2. How long is the real thing?  train.py logs `progress ... last=` per
+#      rollout, so each probe yields a measured per-rollout time. The report
+#      still prints all 24 (task, method) rows: each reads the pace measured on
+#      its own code path, which is what lets 17 runs answer 24 questions.
+#
+#   NOT: which learning rate wins. These are three-rollout runs. Their rows carry
+#   `probe_rollouts`, `analyze` exits 4 on any ledger containing one, and every
+#   run goes to the `lora-regret-smoke` wandb project rather than its task's --
+#   keyed off the rollout count, so a probe cannot reach a real dashboard.
+#
+# SEQUENTIAL, one run at a time. The runs are three rollouts each, so packing
+# them concurrently would save a fraction of an already short session while
+# buying: a GPU allocator to get wrong, contended per-rollout times that are
+# upper bounds rather than estimates, and interleaved failures that are harder
+# to attribute. Sequential means every number below is measured on an idle node
+# and every failure has exactly one candidate cause.
+#
+# GPU count per run still mirrors the real sweep, because a timing measured on
+# the wrong number of GPUs estimates nothing:
+#
+#   SFT LoRA/OFT  1 GPU      SFT FullFT  4 GPUs      RL any  8 GPUs

+# never binds; at large ones it binds hard -- truncating exactly the updates
+# that are supposed to blow the run up, and widening the apparent stable band
+# for whichever method takes bigger steps. That band is the claim under test.
+#

+#
+# This is what makes the clipping-off choice above coherent rather than merely
+# aggressive. At the launcher's 256 the learner took FOUR updates per rollout,
+# minibatches 2-4 were off-policy, and with EPS_CLIP=1e9 the -rho*A term on
+# those minibatches was unbounded. The 2026-08-04 gsm8k column 4 measured the
+# consequence: FullFT at 7e-07 -- the BOTTOM of the grid -- ran healthy for 130
+# rollouts (raw_reward 0.65, held-out 0.68) and then collapsed in one iteration
+# (0.649 at rollout 130, 0.060 at 131, ~0 after; ppo_kl 9.2e-2 at the cliff),
+# and LoRA r1 at 7e-05 died the same way at ~97. The collapse is one-way:
+# every response runs to the 2,048 cap, truncation loses the \boxed{}, every
+# reward in the group is 0, so the centred advantage is 0 and no gradient can
+# ever pull the policy back.
+#
+# On-policy, the ratio never leaves 1 and no clip is needed -- which is the
+# post's actual setting, not a softening of it. The cost: 150 optimizer steps

+# and NOTHING reached the server -- `wandb.Api()` could not find the project at
+# all. No retry, no error, no warning in any training log; the uploader simply
+# never ran. The compute node had already said why, in Ray's own startup line:
+#
+#   Failed to determine local IP via external connectivity to: 8.8.8.8:53
+#
+# The same `mode="shared", x_primary=True` init that logged nothing there logs

+#
+# What makes offline the answer rather than a workaround: `wandb sync` REPLAYS
+# an offline directory into a real run, name and history intact (verified: 5/5
+# rows, correct run name). It does NOT do that for a shared-mode directory --
+# those replay into a run with config and summary and **zero history rows**,
+# which is an empty dashboard, which is exactly what tonight's first attempt
+# produced. Offline is the only local format that can be recovered.

+#
+# It is also the least-measured number in the campaign. One column at
+# NUM_ROLLOUT=234 (one full epoch of either dataset, since gsm8k has 7,473

+# ledgers, `e5rl` recovers its OFT centre from ledger argmins) and resume does
+# not depend on them either, since `--load` points at the base checkpoint and

+# policy later -- a different grader, pass@k on a held-out set. Set
+# SAVE_INTERVAL=999999 for a single end-of-run save if that matters; the LoRA

+# at 149 regardless of divisibility -- so the intermediate passes are a curve on
+# top, not a different measurement.

+# EVAL_DATASETS), and the smoke measured that split at ~27 s for gsm8k_test's
+# 1,319 prompts against 2.5-5.5 h arms: seven passes cost ~1% on the gsm8k
+# panel and a few percent on math's 5,000. And the 2026-08-03 campaign showed
+# what end-only measurement cannot see: its collapses (1e-06 at rollout 84,
+# 3e-06 at 70) exist only as TRAINING reward traces, with no held-out number

+# Clean env2 E4 rerun
+
+This directory is the isolated launcher set for the 2026-08-21 rerun. It does
+not reuse the old ledgers, per-arm logs, local W&B files, or checkpoints. The
+exported `E4_ENV2_SCHEDULER_DIR` is the destination for the separate scheduler
+submission layer; these training wrappers do not create scheduler logs.
+
+Each `lr1`–`lr7` wrapper keeps the original FullFT learning rate and shifts the
+LoRA grid down by one old column:
+
+| New column | FullFT LR | LoRA r1/r16/r256 LR |
+|---|---:|---:|
+| `lr1` | `5e-8` | `2e-6` (old `lr0`) |
+| `lr2` | `1e-7` | `5e-6` (old `lr1`) |
+| `lr3` | `3e-7` | `1e-5` (old `lr2`) |
+| `lr4` | `7e-7` | `3e-5` (old `lr3`) |
+| `lr5` | `2e-6` | `7e-5` (old `lr4`) |
+| `lr6` | `4e-6` | `2e-4` (old `lr5`) |
+| `lr7` | `1e-5` | `4e-4` (old `lr6`) |
+
+`env.sh` activates `/fast/zqiu/orbit-iclr/orbit_env_v2` and defaults every
+artifact to:
+
+```text
+/lustre/fast/fast/zqiu/orbit-iclr/experiment-runs/env2-rerun-20260821/
+  results/
+  logs/lora_regret/
+  wandb/
+  orbit_ckpts/lora_regret/
+  scheduler/
+```
+
+Run one whole-node column with, for example:
+
+```bash
+bash scripts/lora_regret/env2_rerun/run_e4_gsm8k_lr1_8gpu.sh
+```
+
+The script runs one FullFT arm followed by LoRA ranks 1, 16, and 256. Repeating
+the command resumes from its new ledger. To upload only this rerun's offline
+W&B files from a host with egress:
+
+```bash
+bash scripts/lora_regret/env2_rerun/sync_wandb.sh
+```
+
+## OFT grid
+
+The OFT wrappers use block size 128 on all target modules. The seven-column
+grid puts the historical MATH optimum at its midpoint:
+
+| Column | OFT LR |
+|---|---:|
+| `lr1` | `5e-7` |
+| `lr2` | `1e-6` |
+| `lr3` | `3e-6` |
+| `lr4` | `7e-6` |
+| `lr5` | `2e-5` |
+| `lr6` | `4e-5` |
+| `lr7` | `1e-4` |
+
+Each MATH or GSM8K wrapper runs one OFT arm into its own resumable ledger:
+
+```bash
+bash scripts/lora_regret/env2_rerun/run_e4_math_oft_lr4_8gpu.sh
+bash scripts/lora_regret/env2_rerun/run_e4_gsm8k_oft_lr4_8gpu.sh
+```
+
+To run all seven columns sequentially on one allocated 8-GPU node:
+
+```bash
+bash scripts/lora_regret/env2_rerun/run_e4_math_oft_lr1_lr7_8gpu.sh
+bash scripts/lora_regret/env2_rerun/run_e4_gsm8k_oft_lr1_lr7_8gpu.sh
+```
+
+These aggregate launchers call the per-column wrappers above, so they share the
+same ledgers. Re-running an aggregate launcher skips completed columns safely.

+# RUN THIS BEFORE EVERY CAMPAIGN. ~30-45 minutes against a 14-node-booking
+# reservation, and it is the only thing standing between a protocol change and
+# the failure this exists because of.
+#
+# On 2026-08-03 seven gsm8k columns ran to completion -- 150 rollouts each,
+# exit code 0, ~40 node-hours -- and every ledger row read `accuracy: null,
+# status: "failed"`. Nothing crashed. Three defects sat downstream of anything
+# the coverage probe checks:
+#
+#   1. train.py's generation-eval call omitted `num_rollout`, so the
+#      final-rollout branch of `should_run_periodic_action` was dead. At
+#      EVAL_INTERVAL=100000 -- chosen to mean "once, at the end" -- the modulo
+#      never matched either, so the arms produced ZERO post-training evals. The
+#      only eval line in those logs is rollout 0's: the UNTRAINED policy.
+#   2. `parse_final_accuracy` demanded both math_test and gsm8k_test while
+#      `arm_env` had configured gsm8k alone. It fails closed on a missing
+#      dataset, so even that rollout-0 eval parsed to None.
+#   3. RUN_LOG is a fixed path per arm and the launcher appends to it, so a
+#      retried arm's row summarised two runs at once -- 258 rollout timings on
+#      a 150-rollout row.
+#
+# The coverage probe passed before that campaign and would pass again: it asks
+# "does this method run, and how fast", and all three defects are downstream of
+# the answer. This asks the only question that protects a reservation:
+#
+#     does a number measured on the GPU reach the ledger, correctly labelled?
+#
+# WHY 10 ROLLOUTS AND AN EVAL EVERY 4 -- an interval that does NOT divide the
+# rollout count, and that property IS the test. The periodic branch fires at
+# rollouts 3 and 7; rollout 9 is reached only by the final-rollout branch, the
+# branch defect (1) killed, so its eval present means the branch works and
+# absent means the regression is back. At interval 5 the two schedules are
+# IDENTICAL ([4, 9] both ways, because 10 is a multiple of 5) and the smoke
+# proves nothing about the defect it exists for; a unit test pins 10 % 4 != 0.
+#
+# WHY A CHECKPOINT. SAVE_INTERVAL=999999 never matches the modulo, so the one
+# save comes from the final-rollout branch alone, and the check wants both the
+# actor's `Timer save_model` line and a non-empty orbit_ckpts/lora_regret/<arm>
+# directory. The campaign runs with saves OFF, so this is the only place the
+# save path executes at all -- and the day someone books a node with
+# SAVE_INTERVAL set to keep a policy is the wrong day to learn it broke.
+# Costs ~15 GB and ~10 min for the FullFT arm (LoRA/OFT adapters are MBs);
+# SMOKE_SAVE=0 skips it, and the check then reports save UNEXERCISED, not ok.
+#
+# WHY THE REAL MATRIX. The three arms are read out of `e4` itself -- one per
+# method, the middle learning rate of each grid -- rather than named here. A
+# renamed arm or a moved cell then surfaces as a missing method instead of as a
+# passing run of something else. Defects (1) and (2) both lived in code reached
+# only via e4's per-dataset arms; a smoke against a stand-in matrix would have
+# passed while they were live.
+#
+# NOT A MEASUREMENT. `--probe-rollouts` stamps every row with `probe_rollouts`,
+# `analyze` exits non-zero on any ledger containing one, and the runs go to the
+# `lora-regret-smoke` wandb project. Ten rollouts cannot say which learning rate
+# wins and nothing here will let them try. The reward numbers it prints are
+# plumbing evidence, not results.

+# Reusable CUDA 12.8 / H200 binary layer
+
+> **Status:** Experimental until a cold build is archived, unpacked into a second
+> clean prefix, and passes `verify_env.py --full-h200` there.
+
+The normal CUDA 12.8 installer builds every native dependency from its pinned
+source. That is the source-of-truth qualification path, but repeating it for every
+Orbit checkout wastes hours on CUDA extensions that have not changed. This guide
+describes a two-layer workflow similar to starting Miles-IMP from a built image:
+
+```text
+pins.env + exact native source commits
+                  |
+                  v
+       cold Conda/uv installation
+                  |
+                  v
+      relocatable Conda binary archive
+                  |
+                  v
+  cheap SGLang/Megatron/Orbit source overlay
+                  |
+                  v
+       verify_env.py --full-h200
+```
+
+The archive is a derived artifact. `pins.env`, `install_env.sh`, and the pinned
+source repositories remain authoritative.
+
+## Reuse boundary
+
+The binary layer may reuse components whose Python, Torch, CUDA, and C++ ABI
+identity is unchanged:
+
+| Layer | Contents |
+|---|---|
+| Binary base | Python 3.12, Torch 2.11+cu128, Triton, CUDA runtime wheels, cuDNN, NCCL, FlashInfer, Transformer Engine, FlashAttention, DeepEP, Apex, and other compiled dependencies |
+| Source overlay | Sphere-Lab SGLang Python code, Sphere-Lab Megatron-LM, Megatron-Bridge, and Orbit |
+| Conditional | `sglang-kernel` is reusable only when its source tree and Torch/CUDA ABI are unchanged; rebuild it when the kernel tree changes |
+
+Megatron-LM, Megatron-Bridge, and most of SGLang are Python-level code, so changing
+those commits normally requires only a new source overlay. Do not infer native
+compatibility from a package version alone. Key an archive by at least:
+
+- Python major/minor version.
+- CUDA profile and target architecture.
+- Exact Torch build and Triton version.
+- Exact commits or source-tree hashes for every compiled package.
+- cuDNN and NCCL versions.
+
+## Independent cold build
+
+Use new environment, source, and cache paths. The builder must not read another
+Orbit environment or its package caches; otherwise it does not prove that the
+artifact is reproducible.
+
+```bash
+export BUILD_ID=<unique-build-id>
+export ENV_PREFIX=/data/home/zeju/miles-orbit/envs/orbit_cu128_binary_${BUILD_ID}
+export SOURCE_ROOT=/data/home/zeju/miles-orbit/sources/orbit_cu128_binary_${BUILD_ID}
+export CACHE_ROOT=$HOME/.cache/orbit-cu128-binary/${BUILD_ID}
+
+mkdir -p \
+  "$CACHE_ROOT/conda-pkgs" \
+  "$CACHE_ROOT/pip" \
+  "$CACHE_ROOT/uv" \
+  "$CACHE_ROOT/ccache" \
+  "$CACHE_ROOT/tmp"
+
+export CONDA_PKGS_DIRS="$CACHE_ROOT/conda-pkgs"
+export PIP_CACHE_DIR="$CACHE_ROOT/pip"
+export UV_CACHE_DIR="$CACHE_ROOT/uv"
+export CCACHE_DIR="$CACHE_ROOT/ccache"
+export TMPDIR="$CACHE_ROOT/tmp"
+export CUDA_HOME=/usr/local/cuda-12.8
+export SGLANG_BUILD_RUST_EXTS=none
+
+scripts/slurm/setup/cu128/install_env.sh \
+  --env-prefix "$ENV_PREFIX" \
+  --source-root "$SOURCE_ROOT" \
+  --jobs 32
+```
+
+`SGLANG_BUILD_RUST_EXTS=none` prevents the SGLang Python overlay from rebuilding
+the Rust router. The CUDA 12.8 profile installs its separately pinned router wheel.
+
+If `ccache` is available, also set:
+
+```bash
+export CMAKE_C_COMPILER_LAUNCHER=ccache
+export CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER_LAUNCHER=ccache
+export CMAKE_CUDA_COMPILER_LAUNCHER=ccache
+```
+
+An empty compiler cache does not make the first build faster. It makes later native
+rebuilds faster. The relocatable archive is what avoids compilation entirely when
+the binary identity has not changed.
+
+## Archive and hydrate
+
+After the installer passes full H200 verification, record the resolved packages,
+source commits, input checksums, and archive checksum. A typical archive step is:
+
+```bash
+python -m pip install 'conda-pack==0.8.1'
+conda-pack \
+  --prefix "$ENV_PREFIX" \
+  --output orbit-cu128-h200-binary-layer.tar.gz \
+  --format tar.gz \
+  --compress-level 1 \
+  --ignore-editable-packages
+sha256sum orbit-cu128-h200-binary-layer.tar.gz \
+  > orbit-cu128-h200-binary-layer.tar.gz.sha256
+```
+
+Hydrate into a new prefix, then reapply the cheap source overlay because editable
+package metadata from the build prefix is not portable:
+
+```bash
+export TARGET_PREFIX=/data/home/zeju/miles-orbit/envs/orbit_cu128_from_binary_<id>
+mkdir -p "$TARGET_PREFIX"
+tar -xzf orbit-cu128-h200-binary-layer.tar.gz -C "$TARGET_PREFIX"
+"$TARGET_PREFIX/bin/conda-unpack"
+
+"$TARGET_PREFIX/bin/uv" pip install \
+  --python "$TARGET_PREFIX/bin/python" \
+  --no-deps \
+  --editable "$SOURCE_ROOT/sglang/python" \
+  --editable "$SOURCE_ROOT/Megatron-LM" \
+  --editable "$SOURCE_ROOT/Megatron-Bridge" \
+  --editable "$PWD"
+
+"$TARGET_PREFIX/bin/python" scripts/slurm/setup/cu128/verify_env.py \
+  --source-root "$SOURCE_ROOT" \
+  --full-h200
+```
+
+Do not publish or reuse the archive until this second-prefix verification passes.
+
+## FlashInfer `nvep` and CUDA Python
+
+FlashInfer 0.6.14 declares the following optional dependency in its upstream
+[`pyproject.toml`](https://github.com/flashinfer-ai/flashinfer/blob/v0.6.14/pyproject.toml):
+
+```toml
+[project.optional-dependencies]
+nvep = [
+    "cuda-python>=13.0",
+]
+```
+
+This requirement is active only for `flashinfer-python[nvep]`. The CUDA 12.8
+profile installs plain `flashinfer-python==0.6.14` and must not enable the `nvep`
+extra. The selected CUTLASS CUDA 12 packages require `cuda-python>=12.8`, which is
+satisfied by the profile pin `cuda-python==12.9.2`.
+
+Orbit's root `pyproject.toml` contains a CUDA 13.2 project-level override:
+
+```toml
+[tool.uv]
+override-dependencies = [
+    "cuda-python==13.2.0",
+]
+```
+
+`uv pip install` discovers that configuration from the current working directory.
+Without isolation, running the CUDA 12.8 installer from the Orbit worktree therefore
+combines the project override with the profile's explicit `cuda-python==12.9.2` and
+fails resolution. The CUDA 12.8 installer exports `UV_NO_CONFIG=1`; its generated
+pins and explicit override file are authoritative for every uv invocation. A manual
+resolver command launched outside the worktree can hide this problem because no
+Orbit project configuration is discovered there.
+
+When diagnosing a similar report, preserve the pins and inspect the actual graph:
+
+```bash
+UV_NO_CONFIG=1 uv pip install --dry-run -vv <the exact original arguments>
+```
+
+Confirm whether an extra such as `[nvep]` is active and inspect the wheel's
+`*.dist-info/METADATA` before changing CUDA Python, Torch, or CUDA runtime pins.
+
+## Qualification evidence
+
+A reusable layer is qualified only when its provenance records:
+
+- The exact Orbit revision and `pins.env` checksum.
+- Every external source commit used by the build.
+- The complete resolved Python package list.
+- The archive SHA-256 checksum.
+- The cold-build H200 verification result.
+- The second-prefix archive hydration and H200 verification result.
+
+Keep raw logs and archives in the durable run store or artifact storage, not in Git.

+# Orbit native CUDA 12.8 / H200 environment
+
+This directory provides a reproducible **native Conda/uv installation** for Orbit on
+CUDA 12.8 and NVIDIA H200 GPUs. It does not build or start a Docker image, and it
+lives alongside the existing CUDA 13 workflow without changing that workflow.
+
+## Source-of-truth flow
+
+```text
+orbit/pyproject.toml + ../sglang/pyproject.toml
+                  + CUDA 12.8/H200 profile in extract_pins.py
+                              |

+                        verify_env.py
+```
+
+The project metadata and backend references remain authoritative. `extract_pins.py`
+normalizes those inputs into shell-safe, deterministic assignments in `pins.env`.
+The generated file includes its input hashes so drift is reviewable.
+
+Do not hand-edit `pins.env`. Change `pyproject.toml`, the SGLang metadata, or the
+explicit CUDA 12.8 profile in `extract_pins.py`, then regenerate it.
+
+## Files
+
+- `extract_pins.py`: extracts and cross-checks package versions, source URLs, and commits.
+- `pins.env`: generated contract consumed by the installer and verifier.
+- `install_env.sh`: non-destructive twelve-stage Conda/uv installation.
+- `verify_env.py`: re-runnable package, editable-source, revision, import, and H200 audit.
+
+## Refresh or audit pins
+
+From the Orbit repository root:
+
+```bash
+python scripts/slurm/setup/cu128/extract_pins.py --write
+python scripts/slurm/setup/cu128/extract_pins.py --check
+```
+
+`--check` exits nonzero when regeneration would change `pins.env`.
+
+## Inspect the installation plan
+
+Dry-run mode is safe on a login node. It does not require a Slurm allocation and
+does not create the environment, lock, or source checkout directories.
+
+```bash
+scripts/slurm/setup/cu128/install_env.sh --dry-run \
+  --env-prefix /data/home/zeju/miles-orbit/envs/orbit_cu128_v1 \
+  --source-root /data/home/zeju/miles-orbit/sources/cu128_v1
+```
+
+Use a new versioned prefix when another process or job may be using an existing
+environment. The installer never deletes an unknown or existing directory.
+
+## Preflight on an H200 node
+
+Acquire an interactive Slurm allocation containing an H200, then expose the site
+CUDA 12.8 toolkit so `nvcc --version` reports release 12.8. Conda must be on
+`PATH` or supplied with `--conda-exe`. The installer bootstraps the pinned uv release
+inside a new prefix. Pin extraction and freshness checks require Python 3.11+; select
+it with `--tool-python` when the login-node `python3` is older.
+
+```bash
+scripts/slurm/setup/cu128/install_env.sh --preflight-only \
+  --env-prefix /data/home/zeju/miles-orbit/envs/orbit_cu128_v1 \
+  --source-root /data/home/zeju/miles-orbit/sources/cu128_v1 \
+  --tool-python /path/to/python3.12
+```
+
+Preflight rejects login-node execution, non-H200 allocations, the wrong CUDA
+toolkit, stale pins, missing tools, and unsafe target paths.
+
+## Install
+
+Run the same command without `--preflight-only` inside the H200 allocation:
+
+```bash
+scripts/slurm/setup/cu128/install_env.sh \
+  --env-prefix /data/home/zeju/miles-orbit/envs/orbit_cu128_v1 \
+  --source-root /data/home/zeju/miles-orbit/sources/cu128_v1 \
+  --tool-python /path/to/python3.12 \
+  --jobs 32
+```
+
+The labeled stages are:
+
+1. Preflight scheduler, GPU, toolkit, pins, and tools.
+2. Create or resume Conda Python 3.12 and bootstrap pinned uv.
+3. Install pinned CUDA build tools and write the resolver override file.
+4. Install exact PyTorch CUDA 12.8 wheels.
+5. Install pinned CUDA Python, FlashInfer, and inference wheels.
+6. Clone immutable external sources at pinned commits.
+7. Install non-controlled Orbit runtime dependencies.
+8. Build Transformer Engine, FlashAttention, causal-conv1d, Mamba, FLA, and fast Hadamard.
+9. Build Apex CUDA extensions.
+10. Build SGLang kernel/router and install SGLang plus Megatron backends editable.
+11. Install Orbit editable and reassert the controlled torch wheel set.
+12. Run metadata plus full H200 verification.
+
+The Hopper extension stage is intentionally expensive. On the reference H200 cluster,
+a clean FlashAttention build took about 3.25 hours; use an unattended batch allocation
+with enough wall time. User-level pip caches can substantially shorten later exact-pin
+builds.
+
+A sibling `<env-prefix>.install.lock` prevents concurrent installers from mutating
+the same prefix. Re-running the command resumes a recognizable Conda prefix and
+reuses clean source checkouts at their pinned revisions. Dirty external checkouts
+are rejected rather than reset.
+
+## Re-run verification
+
+The default verifier is GPU-free and can audit metadata from a login node:
+
+```bash
+/data/home/zeju/miles-orbit/envs/orbit_cu128_v1/bin/python \
+  scripts/slurm/setup/cu128/verify_env.py \
+  --source-root /data/home/zeju/miles-orbit/sources/cu128_v1
+```
+
+Inside an H200 allocation, add `--full-h200`:
+
+```bash
+/data/home/zeju/miles-orbit/envs/orbit_cu128_v1/bin/python \
+  scripts/slurm/setup/cu128/verify_env.py \
+  --source-root /data/home/zeju/miles-orbit/sources/cu128_v1 \
+  --full-h200
+```
+
+Full mode checks the H200 device name, CUDA 12.8 runtime, compute capability 9.0,
+BF16 support and a finite CUDA matmul, plus visible cuDNN and NCCL runtimes.
+Every check prints a labeled pass/fail result, and any failure produces a nonzero
+exit status.
+

+# Orbit native CUDA 13 / H100 or B200 environment
+
+This profile follows the Miles-IMP installation model. The RadixArk Miles
+Dockerfile is a pinned dependency recipe, not a runtime container. Its prebuilt
+CUDA 13 wheels are installed into a persistent Conda environment, then Orbit's
+exact Sphere-Lab sources are installed as editable overlays.
+
+## Source-of-truth flow
+

+
+No Docker, Enroot, or Apptainer runtime is involved.
+
+## What is prebuilt
+
+The primary path does not compile CUDA extensions. It installs:
+
+- PyTorch 2.11 and Triton 3.6 for CUDA 13
+- official sglang-kernel 0.4.5+cu130
+- official sgl-deep-gemm
+- FlashInfer CUDA 13 components
+- FlashAttention 2 and 3 from the Miles wheel release
+- Transformer Engine and Apex from the Miles wheel release
+- additional Miles release wheels when available
+
+A required missing wheel is an error. The installer does not silently fall back
+to a multi-hour CUDA build.
+
+## What is editable
+
+These repositories are checked out at exact commits under the source root:
+
+- Sphere-Lab SGLang
+- Sphere-Lab Megatron-LM
+- Sphere-Lab Megatron-Bridge
+
+They and the current Orbit checkout are installed editable with --no-deps. That
+keeps Python and Triton changes live while preserving the prebuilt binary layer.
+
+## Paths
+
+~~~text
+Environment:
+/fast/zqiu/orbit-iclr/orbit/envs/orbit-cu130-v1
+
+Sources:
+/fast/zqiu/orbit-iclr/orbit/sources/orbit-cu130-v1
+
+Cache:
+/fast/zqiu/orbit-iclr/orbit/cache/orbit-cu130-v1
+~~~
+
+These directories must be excluded from Git. The installer never resets an
+existing source checkout or overwrites an unknown environment.
+
+The uv cache defaults to cluster home (see "MPI cache placement"); for the
+fastest extraction point `UV_CACHE_DIR` at node-local disk (for example under
+`/tmp`). Either way the installer symlinks site-packages into the cache while it
+runs and then copies everything into the prefix (`materialize_env.py`, parallel),
+so the finished environment depends on neither the cache nor the node.
+
+## Refresh or audit pins
+
+From the Orbit repository root:
+
+~~~bash
+python scripts/slurm/setup/cu130/extract_pins.py --write
+python scripts/slurm/setup/cu130/extract_pins.py --check
+~~~
+
+The RadixArk commit is embedded in extract_pins.py, so regeneration does not
+silently follow a moving main branch.
+
+## Inspect the installation plan
+
+Dry-run mode performs no network access and creates no files:
+
+~~~bash
+scripts/slurm/setup/cu130/install_env.sh --dry-run
+~~~
+
+## Install inside an H100 or B200 allocation
+
+~~~bash
+scripts/slurm/setup/cu130/install_env.sh
+~~~
+
+The default command creates or resumes the paths above. Separate paths can be
+provided with --env-prefix, --source-root, and --cache-dir.
+
+## Activate
+
+~~~bash
+source /home/zqiu/anaconda3/etc/profile.d/conda.sh
+conda activate /fast/zqiu/orbit-iclr/orbit/envs/orbit-cu130-v1
+~~~
+
+The editable source links are part of the environment. No extra PYTHONPATH is
+normally needed. Before running launchers, load Orbit's runtime loader with the
+prefix as `ORBIT_VENV`; it adds the `z3/lib` path that `megatron.bridge`
+(via nvidia-modelopt) needs and the cuDNN/FlashInfer runtime settings:
+
+~~~bash
+ORBIT_VENV=/fast/zqiu/orbit-iclr/orbit/envs/orbit-cu130-v1 \
+  source examples/load_cuda13_2_orbit_env.sh
+~~~
+
+Without a Rust toolchain on `PATH`, the Sphere-Lab SGLang editable install skips
+its `setuptools-rust` extensions (`SGLANG_BUILD_RUST_EXTS=none`); Orbit uses the
+separate `sglang-router` wheel instead.
+
+## Why cuda-python 13 appears
+
+The cuda-python requirement comes from SGLang's Python metadata. This profile
+satisfies it with Orbit's exact CUDA Python pin, then installs Sphere-Lab SGLang
+with --no-deps so dependency resolution cannot replace the controlled stack.
+
+## Re-run verification
+
+Inside an H100 or B200 allocation (FlashAttention 3 is sm_90a-only and is not exercised on B200):
+
+~~~bash
+/fast/zqiu/orbit-iclr/orbit/envs/orbit-cu130-v1/bin/python \
+  scripts/slurm/setup/cu130/verify_env.py \
+  --source-root /fast/zqiu/orbit-iclr/orbit/sources/orbit-cu130-v1 \
+  --full-h100
+~~~
+
+## MPI cache placement
+
+The large, immutable Miles wheel cache remains under `CACHE_ROOT` (normally
+`/fast/.../cache/orbit-cu130-v1`). The mutable `uv` distribution cache requires
+file locking, but the MPI `/fast` filesystem can return `Function not implemented
+(os error 38)` for that operation. The installer therefore defaults
+`UV_CACHE_DIR` to `${HOME}/.cache/orbit-cu130-v1/uv`, which resolves to a
+Lustre-backed home directory on MPI. Override it explicitly when needed:
+
+```bash
+UV_CACHE_DIR=/lustre/home/$USER/.cache/orbit-cu130-v1/uv \
+  scripts/slurm/setup/cu130/install_env.sh
+```
+
+This changes only the lock-sensitive `uv` cache. Prebuilt CUDA wheels and other
+large reusable artifacts remain in `CACHE_ROOT`.
+
+## Prebuilt router and editable overlays
+
+The CUDA 13 workflow installs `sglang_router` from the manylinux_2_28 wheel that
+`orbit/pyproject.toml` pins under `[tool.uv.sources]` (`SGLANG_ROUTER_WHEEL_URL`
+in `pins.env`), not from the RadixArk Miles wheel set: the Miles build is tagged
+manylinux_2_39 and fails to load on glibc 2.35 nodes (Ubuntu 22.04) with
+`GLIBC_2.38 not found`. The editable Sphere-Lab SGLang checkout is a Python and
+Triton source overlay, so rebuilding its Rust router would duplicate that
+component and require an unnecessary Rust toolchain. For the SGLang editable
+install only, `install_env.sh` sets `SGLANG_BUILD_RUST_EXTS=none`.
+
+Megatron-LM is installed with `--no-cache --link-mode copy --force-reinstall --editable` so an existing non-editable
+`megatron-core` distribution cannot cause `uv` to skip the editable link.
+
+## TileLang Z3 runtime loader
+
+The editable Sphere-Lab Megatron path imports TileLang's bundled TVM. That native
+library depends on `libz3.so.4.15`, which is supplied by the installed
+`z3-solver` wheel but is outside the default dynamic-loader search path. The
+installer exports the wheel's `z3/lib` directory for verification and writes an
+idempotent Conda activation hook at
+`$ENV_PREFIX/etc/conda/activate.d/orbit-cu130-z3.sh` so later `conda activate`
+commands receive the same runtime path.
+The runtime pins use NumPy 2.3.5 and align `flashinfer-python`,
+`flashinfer-cubin`, and `flashinfer-jit-cache` at 0.6.15.post1; the JIT-cache
+wheel carries the expected `+cu130` local version suffix.
+
+## Clean-room verification
+
+To verify the complete CUDA 13 workflow without reusing an existing environment,
+source checkout, wheel cache, or uv cache, run this command from the Orbit
+repository inside an H100 allocation:
+
+```bash
+ENV_PREFIX=/fast/zqiu/orbit-iclr/orbit/envs/orbit-cu130-v2-clean \
+SOURCE_ROOT=/fast/zqiu/orbit-iclr/orbit/sources/orbit-cu130-v2-clean \
+CACHE_DIR=/fast/zqiu/orbit-iclr/orbit/cache/orbit-cu130-v2-clean \
+UV_CACHE_DIR=/lustre/home/$USER/.cache/orbit-cu130-v2-clean/uv \
+  scripts/slurm/setup/cu130/install_env.sh
+```
+
+These paths are independent of `orbit-cu130-v1`. Do not delete or overwrite the
+validated v1 environment. A successful installation ends with
+`[summary] 38/38 passed`.
+
+For repeated clean-room checks, choose a new shared suffix for all four paths so
+that the environment, sources, wheel cache, and uv cache are all unused.

+"""Replace symlinks that point into the uv cache with real copies.
+
+uv's symlink link mode (often inherited via UV_LINK_MODE=symlink) leaves
+site-packages entries pointing into the cache directory, so the prefix dies
+with the cache and cannot move between nodes. Copy mode avoids that but runs at
+a few files per second on Lustre because uv copies file-by-file. Building with
+a node-local cache and then materializing in parallel keeps both properties:
+fast unpack, self-contained prefix.
+
+Only symlinks whose resolved target lies under --cache-dir are replaced;
+symlinks internal to a package (for example versioned .so aliases) are kept.

Algunos de los factores más importantes son:\n- El aumento del precio de la vivienda: En muchas ciudades del mundo, el precio de la vivienda ha aumentado considerablemente en las últimas décadas, lo que hace que sea más difícil para muchas personas comprar una casa propia. Esto se debe a una combinación de factores, incluyendo la escasez de viviendas disponibles, el aumento de la demanda de viviendas, y el aumento del costo de la construcción.\n- La falta de acceso a créditos: En algunos casos, las personas pueden tener dificultades para obtener un crédito hipotecario debido a la falta de historial crediticio o ingresos estables. Esto hace que sea más difícil para muchas personas comprar una casa propia.\n- El aumento de la deuda estudiantil: Muchos jóvenes que buscan comprar una casa propia también enfrentan una gran deuda estudiantil, lo que puede dificultar el ahorro para un pago inicial o el cumplimiento de los requisitos de los prestamistas hipotecarios.\n- Cambios demográficos: Las tendencias demográficas también pueden afectar el mercado de la vivienda. Por ejemplo, el aumento de las tasas de divorcio ha dado lugar a más hogares unipersonales, lo que puede dificultar a algunas personas pagar una hipoteca por su cuenta.", "role": "assistant"}]}

Poniéndonos en contexto, hasta antes de 1854 los hospitales tenian condiciones perjudiciales. Las instalaciones médicas inglesas en la Guerra de Crimea (1854-1856) tenían a los soldados en el suelo y las cirugías eran poco higiénicas, generando enfermedades como el cólera o tifus, con probabilidades de mortandad siete veces mayores que morir en batalla.\n\nA raíz de esto, se le designó la Administración de Enfermería a Florence Nightingale, quien inmediatamente realizó varias mejoras, como montar una cocina y una lavandería para desinfectar las prendas de los soldados. Agregó el concepto de higiene y la dedicación al cuidado de los pacientes, profesionalizó la enfermería y aplicó la estadística.\n\nSe le conoce como la dama de la lámpara porque salía todas las noches a hacer sus rondas para monitorear con devoción a los soldados. El día de la enfermería se celebra el 12 de mayo, el mismo día de su cumpleaños.\n\nEspero que esta información te haya resultado útil para conocer la importancia de Florence Nightingale en la profesión de Enfermería.

Utiliza formato markdown (ya sea para títulos como para subtítulos).", "role": "user"}, {"content": "¡Por supuesto! Aquí tienes un pequeño ensayo hablando sobre las contribuciones de Florence Nightingale y de acuerdo a las condiciones que me mencionaste:\n\n# Importantes contribuciones de *La dama de la lámpara*\n\nLa más duradera contribución de Florence Nightingale fue su rol en la fundación de la enfermería moderna como profesión. Ella estableció los parámetros de compasión, dedicación al cuidado del paciente, diligencia y cuidado en la administración hospitalaria.\n\n## Estadísticas y reforma sanitaria\n\nNightingale demostró tener aptitudes para las matemáticas desde sus primeros años, y sobresalió en la materia bajo la tutela de su padre. Llegó a convertirse en una pionera en el uso de representaciones visuales de la información y en gráficos estadísticos. De hecho, ha sido descrita como *una verdadera pionera en la representación gráfica de datos estadísticos*, y se le atribuye el desarrollo de una forma de gráfico circular hoy conocida como diagrama de área polar, o como diagrama de la rosa de Nightingale,  equivalente a un moderno histograma circular, a fin de ilustrar las causas de la mortalidad de los soldados en el hospital militar que dirigía.\n\nHizo un uso intensivo de este tipo de gráficos en sus informes ante los miembros del parlamento británico y ante funcionarios civiles, con el propósito de demostrar la magnitud del desastre sanitario en la sanidad del ejército durante la Guerra de Crimea.\n\nEn sus últimos años realizó un exhaustivo informe estadístico acerca de las condiciones sanitarias en las zonas rurales de la India, y lideró la introducción de mejoras en la atención médica y del servicio de salud pública en ese país. En 1858 y 1859 presionó exitosamente por el establecimiento de una Comisión Real para tratar la situación india.\n\nDos años después redactó un informe a la comisión, donde completó su propio estudio de 1863. «*Después de 10 años de reformas sanitaria, en 1873, Nightingale informó que la mortalidad entre los soldados en la India disminuyó de 69 a 19 por cada mil*».\n\n## Inspiración para la Cruz Roja\n\nTuvo una influencia decisiva en la creación de la Cruz Roja Británica en 1870, y fue miembro de su comité de damas interesándose por las actividades del movimiento hasta su fallecimiento. Henri Dunant, fundador de la Cruz Roja, manifestó en una visita a Londres en 1872: «*A pesar de que soy conocido como el fundador de la Cruz Roja y el promotor de la Convención de Ginebra, es a una dama que todo el honor de esa convención es debido. Lo que me inspiró a viajar a Italia durante la guerra de 1859, fue el trabajo de Miss Florence Nightingale en Crimea*».\n\n## Literatura y feminismo\n\nMás conocida por sus contribuciones en los campos de la enfermería y de las matemáticas, la obra de Nightingale también constituye un importante eslabón en el estudio del feminismo inglés. A fines de la primera mitad del siglo XIX, luchó por su autodeterminación y en contra de las expectativas familiares de un matrimonio de conveniencia con algún miembro de la clase alta. Poco tiempo después, se dirigió a Kaiserswerth para su entrenamiento en el Instituto para diaconesas.\n\nEn 1860 expuso su pensamiento en una edición privada de *Suggestions for Thought to Searchers after Religious Truth*, una obra de 829 páginas en tres volúmenes. El más conocido de estos ensayos, Cassandra, fue publicado en 1928 por Ray Strachey, quien lo incluyó en The Cause (La Causa), una historia del movimiento feminista.\n\nEn Cassandra condenó la sobrefeminizacion de las mujeres que las deja al borde de la invalidez social, tal como lo podía apreciar en el estilo de vida que llevaban su madre y su hermana mayor, a pesar de la buena educación que ambas poseían. Rechazó una vida de apacible comodidad y a cambio eligió la dedicación al servicio social.\n\n## Teología\n\nSi bien tradicionalmente se la presenta como unitaria, las escasas referencias de Nightingale hacia el unitarismo convencional tienden a ser negativas. A pesar de ello permaneció dentro de la Iglesia de Inglaterra durante toda su vida, aunque manteniendo puntos de vista no convencionales.\n\n*Suggestions for Thought* es también una obra teológica, su propia teodicea, en la cual desarrolla sus ideas heterodoxas. Nightingale cuestionó la divinidad de un Dios que condena al infierno a las almas, y mostró simpatía hacia la idea de una reconciliación universal.\n\n## Conclusiones\n\nNo podríamos o no seríamos capaces de encapsular en un simple ensayo la importancia e influencia que tuvo \"La dama de la lámpara\" en la profesión de la enfermería tal y como hoy la conocemos.\n\nSus avances en estadística permitieron una mejor comprensión de la realidad que se vivía en aquel entonces a quienes pudiesen tener dificultades en la comprensión de reportes estadísticos tradicionales. Además de significar una considerable ventaja al momento de decidir que decisiones tomar, salvando la vida de miles de personas.\n\nSu inspiración e influencia en la Cruz Roja estaba al nivel de la propia fundación de esta (Cruz Roja Británica, 1870), participando activamente hasta sus últimos días. Además de ser reconocida  por el propio fundador de la Cruz Roja, Henri Dunant.\n\nSu lucha por su autodeterminación y en contra de los cánones de la época llegó a ser un importante eslabón en el estudio del feminismo inglés. Llegando a exponer sus pensamientos en obras como *Suggestions for Thought to Searchers after Religious Truth*.\n\nPermaneció dentro de la Iglesia de Inglaterra durante toda su vida, aunque manteniendo puntos de vista poco convencionales. Consideró de notable importancia la idea de una reconciliación universal.\n\nEspero que este ensayo te haya resultado de utilidad.

+"""Gate G3: Orbit's SFT loss mask must equal the HF oracle's label mask.
+
+A constant offset between the two masks shifts every NLL in the reproduction
+by a constant, which is invisible in the shape of a loss curve but makes the
+numbers uncomparable to michaelbzhu's published table.
+
+Skipped unless the Qwen3-4B tokenizer is present locally.
+
+FIXED (fix round 1, see task-8-report.md): this gate originally FAILED on the
+multi-turn conversation below. Root cause: Orbit's
+``MultiTurnLossMaskGenerator.gen_multi_turn_loss_mask_qwen3``
+(`orbit/utils/mask_utils.py`) used to render each message in isolation,
+paired with a synthetic single-user "prefix" message, to work out that
+message's token span. For Qwen3's *base* chat template this was unsafe: the
+template decides whether to wrap an assistant turn in an empty
+``<think>\\n\\n</think>\\n\\n`` block based on whether that turn is the LAST
+assistant response following the LAST user turn in the WHOLE conversation
+(Qwen3 deliberately strips reasoning wrappers from assistant turns earlier in
+the history). Rendered in isolation, every assistant message trivially
+looked like "the last message following the last user turn," so Orbit
+inserted that empty think-block before *every* assistant turn, not just the
+true final one. ``no_robots_train.jsonl`` for this reproduction is 8.4%
+multi-turn (535/6400) and ``no_robots_test.jsonl`` -- the held-out NLL split
+-- is 13.0% multi-turn (13/100), so this was a live risk to the study's
+headline metric, not a fixture curiosity.
+
+``gen_multi_turn_loss_mask_qwen3`` was rewritten to tokenize the whole
+conversation once and locate assistant-turn spans within that single
+tokenization (the same approach validated below in ``_hf_label_mask``),
+which cannot be fooled by Qwen3's context-sensitive think-tag insertion.
+Verified against the corrected reference on all 100 rows of
+``no_robots_test.jsonl`` and an 802-row sample of ``no_robots_train.jsonl``
+(a random 300 plus every one of the 535 multi-turn rows in the whole file) --
+zero disagreements. See task-8-report.md for the full remediation record.

+"""Gate G3-llama: Orbit's Llama-3 loss mask must equal the HF oracle's label mask.
+
+Scoring a different token set than an HF SFT recipe shifts every NLL in the study
+by a constant -- invisible in the shape of a loss curve, fatal to any comparison.
+
+The oracle below is deliberately ALGORITHM-INDEPENDENT from the implementation.
+
+    implementation (``gen_multi_turn_loss_mask_llama3``): tokenizes the whole
+        conversation, then finds each assistant turn by scanning the TOKEN id
+        stream for the ``<|start_header_id|>assistant<|end_header_id|>\\n\\n``
+        id subsequence and walking forward to the ``<|eot_id|>`` id.
+
+    oracle (``_hf_label_mask`` below): renders the conversation to TEXT, finds
+        each assistant turn by ``str.index`` over that text, giving CHARACTER
+        offsets, and only then maps characters to tokens via the fast
+        tokenizer's ``return_offsets_mapping``. It never looks at a token id.
+
+A bug in the token SCAN -- an off-by-one on the header length, an off-by-one on the
+``<|eot_id|>`` boundary, a missed or spurious occurrence -- cannot hide in the char
+scan, because the char scan has no token scan to be wrong in the same way. Both
+mutation proofs in the task report exercise exactly this class and both are caught.
+The Qwen3 sibling gate (``test_sft_loss_mask_parity.py``) shipped an oracle that
+reused the implementation's own ``<|im_end|>`` token scan; that was recorded as a
+known weakness and is deliberately not repeated here.
+
+Exactly where that independence STOPS
+-------------------------------------
+The independence is in the ALGORITHM (character offsets vs token scan), not in the
+inputs. The two sides share three things:
+
+- the tokenizer and the chat template -- these are the *spec*, and a gate that used
+  a different one would be answering a different question;
+- the header LITERAL ``<|start_header_id|>assistant<|end_header_id|>\\n\\n``;
+- the terminator LITERAL ``<|eot_id|>``.
+
+So a wrong *literal* is a shared-input bug, and the parity mechanism is blind to it
+by construction: both sides would locate the same wrong span by different means and
+agree. This was demonstrated, not merely reasoned about. Dropping the trailing
+``\\n\\n`` from the header literal on BOTH sides leaves ``test_token_ids_match``,
+``test_scored_token_count_matches``, ``test_scored_token_positions_match`` and
+``test_oracle_scores_a_nonempty_span_per_assistant_turn`` all passing.
+
+The only thing that catches it is
+``test_scored_text_is_exactly_the_assistant_turns``, which compares the DECODED
+scored text against ``message["content"].strip() + EOT`` built from the fixture's own
+``content`` -- independent of the HEADER literal only. It still uses the same
+module-level ``EOT = "<|eot_id|>"`` constant the oracle's span search uses (see
+``_hf_label_mask`` below), so it is NOT independent of the terminator literal: a wrong
+``EOT`` would still make ``expected`` and the oracle's span agree on the same wrong
+text, which is exactly the corresponding hole described next.
+**That test carries the shared-HEADER-literal guarantee. Do not delete it as
+redundant with the parity tests; it is the only assertion here that is not
+downstream of the header literal above.**
+
+The corresponding hole that nothing in this gate closes: if a turn ended with a
+terminator other than ``<|eot_id|>``, implementation and oracle would produce
+BYTE-IDENTICAL wrong masks, both over-running into the following turn. The template
+does have such a path -- it emits ``<|eom_id|>`` instead of ``<|eot_id|>`` (see
+``llama3_chat_template.py``) -- but only for a ``tool_calls`` message AND only when
+``builtin_tools`` is defined in the Jinja context. Nothing in Orbit passes
+``builtin_tools``; ``tools=`` alone still yields ``<|eot_id|>``. So this is
+unreachable today rather than a live hole -- but the gate is structurally incapable
+of catching it, so if ``builtin_tools`` ever becomes reachable this file must grow a
+terminator-independent check, not just another fixture row.
+
+On ``offset_mapping`` and special tokens
+----------------------------------------
+The brief's sketch guarded against ``offset_mapping`` reporting an empty ``(0, 0)``
+span for added special tokens on some backends. That was MEASURED against this
+tokenizer (``PreTrainedTokenizerFast``, tokenizers 0.22.2, transformers 4.57.1) over
+all 6278 tokens of all 12 fixture rows: there are ZERO degenerate offsets. Every
+added token -- ``<|begin_of_text|>``, ``<|start_header_id|>``, ``<|end_header_id|>``,
+``<|eot_id|>`` -- reports its true character span, and ``text[a:b]`` round-trips to
+``decode([id])`` for every token. So the guard is not shipped as dead code; instead
+``_assert_offsets_are_usable`` ASSERTS the property, so a future backend that starts
+returning degenerate offsets fails this gate loudly rather than silently producing a
+mask that is wrong at every special token. Falling back to a token scan is not an
+option: it would collapse the oracle onto the implementation and destroy the only
+property this gate has.
+
+One real subtlety the measurement did surface: offsets can OVERLAP. Llama-3 is a
+byte-level BPE, so a multi-byte character (CJK, fixture row 8) is split across
+several tokens that each report the *whole character's* char span. Two readings of
+"how many", neither more "the" count than the other: **62** tokens in row 8 share an
+identical ``(a, b)`` offset pair with at least one other token (the strict reading --
+two or more tokens claiming the same span); **76** tokens in row 8 have a *solo*
+``tokenizer.decode([id])`` that contains the U+FFFD replacement character, i.e. half of
+a multi-byte sequence (the broader reading). That overlap is harmless for
+containment-based masking (both halves of the character sit inside the same span) and
+is why the mapping below uses an explicit inside/disjoint classification rather than
+assuming a clean partition.

+"""Regression tests for the true-on-policy exact train/rollout parity CI gate.
+
+orbit ported true-on-policy Phases 1-4 but not Phase 5 (SGLang kernels running
+inside Megatron via the fork rebase; orbit/true_on_policy/contracts.py pins
+``megatron_uses_sglang_backend: False`` until then). The inherited miles assert
+in ``log_rollout_data`` compared ``log_probs`` and ``rollout_log_probs`` for
+exact equality unconditionally, which is only valid once Phase 5 closes the
+kernel gap; with Phase 5 absent, Megatron and SGLang legitimately run
+different kernels and the arrays differ (measured, not asserted, via
+``train_rollout_logprob_abs_diff{,_max}``). The assert is now gated on
+``args.true_on_policy_megatron_uses_sglang_backend``, plumbed onto ``args`` by
+``apply_true_on_policy_parse_defaults`` (orbit/true_on_policy/config.py) from
+the contract's ``megatron_uses_sglang_backend`` kernel-policy field.
+
+These tests simulate both states of that flag directly on a hand-built
+``Namespace`` (mirroring tests/fast/test_log_rollout_data_topk_keys.py), since
+no shipped contract sets it True yet.

+"""CPU leg of the teacher-logprob equivalence harness (instrumentation I-5).
+
+Pins the numerical equivalences behind orbit's adapter-as-teacher OPD claims
+("the base teacher is free", "an adapter teacher is exact") for the
+trainer-side plans returned by teacher_forward_plan and dispatched by
+MegatronTrainRayActor.compute_teacher_log_probs:
+
+  * alias_ref    — teacher_log_probs ARE the ref logprobs: same list object,
+                   no forward runs (the base teacher is free when the ref
+                   forward already ran).
+  * adapter_off  — one forward under peft.disable_adapter(model) is bitwise
+                   equal (CPU float32) to an adapter-free twin built from the
+                   same base weights.
+  * adapter_swap — one forward inside swap_adapter_tensors is bitwise equal
+                   to a module directly constructed with the teacher tensors,
+                   and the live student adapter is restored bitwise after.
+
+Already covered elsewhere (deliberately not repeated here):
+  * plan-matrix routing (which spec picks which plan): tests/test_opd_teacher_spec.py
+  * swap restore-on-exception, key/shape-mismatch validation, multi-chunk
+    independence, base params untouched: tests/test_adapter_swap.py
+
+GPU/SGLang leg (runbook only — NOT implemented here):
+  The same comparison utility (orbit.utils.logprob_compare) closes the loop
+  against a live engine:
+    1. launch trainer + SGLang engine with --opd-teacher <spec>;
+    2. trainer side: compute_teacher_log_probs on a fixed sampled-token batch
+       (plans adapter_off / adapter_swap), collect per-token teacher_log_probs;
+    3. engine side: teacher-forcing prefill of the same token sequences —
+       against base weights (a request with no lora_path) for base teachers,
+       against the reserved OPD_TEACHER_ADAPTER_NAME ("orbit_teacher") slot
+       for adapter/self teachers after promotion;
+    4. compare_logprob_dicts(trainer_side, engine_side) keyed by sample id,
+       gated on summarize_reports(...).within(atol) with a documented
+       cross-stack bf16 tolerance — bitwise exactness is claimed only within
+       one stack; a megatron-vs-sglang gap is numerics, not an equivalence bug.

+defect already had to cap; here the fix is to skip the call entirely under the
+direct loss, and to size the cap correctly (off the actual requested id count,
+not ``top_k``) for the PG configurations that still need it.
+
+Fixture: R=3 response positions, k=2, 5-token prompt (8 input tokens total).
+``meta_info.input_top_logprobs`` therefore has 8 entries: index 0 is SGLang's
+placeholder (no logprob for the very first token), indices 1-4 are the
+(irrelevant, dropped) prompt-token entries, and indices 5-7 are the three
+response-position entries that ``_extract_teacher_topk`` must turn into rows.

+"""Full fine-tuning must be able to offload train state for colocated RL.
+
+Before this, `--offload-train` was refused outright for `--peft-method none`,
+so an 8B FullFT RL arm kept its gradients and optimizer state resident while a
+colocated SGLang tried to resume the KV cache it had paused. Measured on
+8xH100: 66.69 GB used, 12.48 GB free, against 16.00 GB of paused K+V --
+`torch_memory_saver ... cudaError 2 (out of memory) func=resume`, every time,
+about seven minutes in. The LoRA arms on the same node sat at 43.88 GB used /
+35.30 GB free and resumed fine; the ~22.8 GB between them is exactly the
+gradients and optimizer state LoRA does not carry.
+
+**Params stay resident, deliberately.** `update_weights` pushes Megatron
+weights into SGLang on every rollout and does not wake the train state, so
+offloading `param_data` would hand it a zero-sized storage. Under PEFT only the
+adapter is pushed, which is why the frozen base can go. Megatron's own
+`offload_grad_buffers` hardcodes `move_params=False` for the same reason.
+
+The refusal was not wrong, either -- it guarded a real failure mode. `sleep()`'s
+worker is `offload_megatron_frozen_base_to_cpu`, whose selector skips any param
+with `requires_grad`; under FullFT that is every param, so it would plan empty
+groups, log "after offload model", and free nothing. Allowing offload WITHOUT
+forcing the two sub-flags on would reinstate exactly that silent no-op, which is
+why `test_enabling_offload_without_the_sub_flags_would_free_nothing` exists.

+"""E5-RL: matched-parameter OFT against LoRA, under policy gradient.
+
+The SFT `e5` matrix asked whether matched-parameter OFT behaves like LoRA on a
+next-token objective. `e5rl` asks the same question where the project actually
+lives -- RL on MATH + GSM8K, scored by accuracy -- and it is the only matrix in
+which OFT and LoRA are compared across a *range* of matched capacities. E4's OFT
+cell is a single block size; a single point cannot show whether OFT tracks LoRA
+as capacity varies, which is the claim.
+
+Two properties carry the whole design and both are asserted here:
+
+  * every OFT arm has a LoRA partner at the same realized parameter count, to
+    within a few percent. Without that the comparison measures capacity, not
+    method.
+  * the block ladder is solved in the fix-block-solve-rank direction. The
+    reverse fails: LoRA ranks form a fine lattice while OFT block sizes must
+    divide the input dimension, so matching a given rank lands 24-53% off (see
+    `test_the_reverse_direction_is_why_this_ladder_is_solved_the_way_it_is`).

+"""The seven per-learning-rate launch scripts must partition E4 exactly.
+
+`run_e4_lr{1..7}_8gpu.sh` each select one column of the sweep: FullFT at the
+i-th point of its grid, plus LoRA r1/r16/r256 at the i-th point of theirs. Two
+things can go wrong silently, and both cost a node before anyone notices.
+
+A **gap** -- a learning rate no script selects -- leaves a hole in one of C5's
+four curves. Every script that does run still succeeds, `analyze` still reports
+an argmin, and the missing point is invisible unless someone counts.
+
+An **overlap** -- an arm two scripts both select -- is worse than wasted compute
+if the two land in different ledgers: `analyze` globs them together and the arm
+appears twice, so a duplicated point silently gets double weight in whatever the
+claim is read off.
+
+`campaign.sh` already refuses a selection that is not `EXPECT_ARMS` long, which
+catches a script that selects 0 or 8. It cannot catch two scripts selecting the
+same 4, or seven scripts of 4 that miss an arm between them. That is what this
+file is for.

+"""Running a matrix on a base model other than the campaign's anchor.
+
+**Correction, 2026-08-02.** This file was written to support switching the
+campaign to Qwen3-1.7B "to match the blog post". That was wrong: the source read
+as the post was `third_party/lora-without-regret`, a community reproduction
+(michaelbzhu) run on Qwen3-1.7B. The post itself uses **Llama-3.1-8B base on
+MATH + GSM8K** for its RL experiments and explicitly avoids Qwen, whose
+pretraining data inflates math performance and confounds what RL is measured to
+teach. The campaign's anchor was already the post's setup; the vendored
+directory is deleted.
+
+What survives is worth keeping on its own terms, because `--model` is real
+machinery and each of these is a place where being wrong is silent:
+
+  * selecting a model must move the *shapes* as well as the checkpoint -- a
+    matrix solved for Llama's 6144-wide fused QKV and run on another model
+    produces identically-named arms with the wrong adapter sizes;
+  * the OFT/LoRA capacity ladder must be re-solved per model, because a block
+    size means a different parameter count on every set of shapes;
+  * the model must reach the wandb project and the ledger row, since arm names
+    do not carry it.

+"""How E4's prompts are rendered for a *base* policy.

+and where the text was coherent it answered in prose without a \\boxed{}, which

+"""Arm enumeration and the resume ledger for the LoRA-without-regret sweep.
+
+The log-line parser tests are deliberately paranoid: Task 10's brief shipped
+with a regex (``eval/test_nll step=(\\d+) nll=([0-9.]+)``) that matches zero
+lines against the format ``train.py`` actually emits, which would have made
+the entire 82-run sweep look like a total failure after burning the compute.
+So every fixture line here is built from templates pinned, by a source-text
+assertion, to ``train.py`` and ``orbit/utils/logging_utils.py`` themselves --
+not hand-typed strings that would trivially satisfy this module's own regex.

+"""`reserved - allocated` is not one number, and the difference decides the fix.
+
+On 2026-08-05 the three LoRA arms of E4 gsm8k column 4 died at rollout 2 on
+8xH100 in `torch_memory_saver ... func=resume`, while the FullFT arm of the same
+column completed 149/149 rollouts on the same node. At the failure rank 0 held
+`allocated 0.12 GB` against `reserved 50.01 GB` -- 49.9 GB free in PyTorch's
+eyes and unavailable to SGLang's `cuMemCreate` all the same.
+
+`offload_megatron_frozen_base_to_cpu` already calls `gc.collect()` then
+`torch.cuda.empty_cache()` every rollout, and the 50.01 GB survives it. Two
+things explain that equally well and imply different fixes: the segments are
+partially occupied and therefore non-releasable (fragmentation ->
+`expandable_segments:True`), or they are fully free and were skipped because
+their blocks still carry recorded stream uses (-> a synchronising clear).
+
+`inactive_split_bytes` is exactly the first quantity. Torch's own memory summary
+labels it "Non-releasable memory": bytes that are free but sit inside a segment
+still holding a live block. Reading it costs a host-side counter lookup on a log
+line already being emitted, and it tells the two hypotheses apart.

+checkpoint -- on the reasoning that a rollout's time is a fixed steady cost plus

+65.62 GB` -- 100% of the gap -- spread over `segments 17`. That is a few MB of
+straggler blocks pinning ~3.9 GB apiece. `empty_cache()` may only return a
+segment that is entirely free, so it returns nothing every rollout, and the
+colocated SGLang engine's `cuMemCreate` then fails at resume. On the 80 GB H100
+that killed the arm at rollout 2; B200 only has more room to hide it.
+
+`active_GB - allocated_GB` measured 0.00, so nothing was awaiting stream release
+-- the gap is fragmentation alone, and expandable segments address exactly that
+by mapping physical pages on demand instead of whole segments.
+
+Full fine-tuning is deliberately left alone: its pool is tight (`reserved`
+tracks `allocated` to within 0.07 GB, measured on the same node), it has no such
+gap, and its arms are already producing completed 149/149 runs whose allocator
+behaviour there is no reason to perturb mid-campaign.

+"""Tests for the A_log fp32 preservation chain (port of miles 85fe6519a #975).
+
+Feature: Qwen3.5's ``A_log`` must end up as fp32 in the Megatron parameter
+after hf->mcore conversion, because the chunk-gated-delta-rule kernel relies
+on that precision. Two complementary pieces keep this invariant:
+
+- Downstream — ``enforce_marked_param_dtypes`` (this module):
+    Megatron's ``Float16Module`` unconditionally casts every floating-point
+    parameter to bf16/fp16 at wrap time. There is no declarative opt-out in
+    nn.Module or Megatron; even Megatron's own MoE router uses the same
+    post-hoc ``.data = ...to(float32)`` pattern in
+    ``_maintain_float32_expert_bias``. We generalize that by letting model
+    definitions declare intent via ``mark_param_dtype`` and re-casting after
+    ``get_model`` returns.
+- Upstream — ``Qwen3_5Bridge._weight_to_mcore_format``:
+    mbridge's base ``_weight_to_mcore_format`` pre-casts every HF tensor to
+    ``self.dtype`` (bf16) before TP scatter. For A_log that pre-cast rounds
+    the fp32 HF value. The override returns A_log as fp32 early, bypassing
+    that pre-cast entirely.
+
+The end-to-end test ties both halves together and checks bit-exact equality
+with the HF fp32 source — this is the regression guard against the original
+``patch_weight_to_mcore_format_preserve_fp32`` failure mode, where only the
+upstream cast was intercepted and the downstream ``t.to(param.dtype)`` in
+``Bridge.load_weights`` still demoted A_log back to bf16.

+"""The reward the RL campaign actually earns, exercised through `async_rm`.
+
+Every other assertion about E4 is a string check against the launcher. This
+file is different on purpose: it runs the reward function, because the failure
+it exists to prevent is invisible to a string check. `--rm-type boxed_math`
+reads like the obviously right choice for a boxed-answer task, is spelled
+correctly, dispatches to the intended pair of functions -- and returns 0 for a
+perfectly correct response, always, because both halves extract the box:
+`async_rm` strips `\\boxed{...}` down to the bare answer, and then
+`grade_answer_verl` calls `extract_answer` on what is left, which returns None
+for any string without a `\\boxed` in it.
+
+An all-zero reward is not a loud failure in RL. Advantages are rewards minus
+their group mean, so an all-zero group has zero advantage and contributes no
+gradient: every arm trains on nothing, every learning rate produces the same
+flat line, and the sweep reports a tidy null result. Three rollouts of the E4
+probe on 2026-07-31 logged exactly that -- `rollout/rewards: 0.0`,
+`passrate/pass@32: 0.0` -- and it read as a base-model or prompt problem.

+"""Full fine-tuning under RL needs tensor parallelism to fit; PEFT does not.
+
+Measured on 8xH100 with Llama-3.1-8B at TP=1 (pure data parallel, every GPU
+carrying the whole model), after the train-offload fix let the arm reach its
+first training step:
+
+    torch.OutOfMemoryError: Tried to allocate 694.00 MiB.
+    GPU 2 has 79.18 GiB of which 660.12 MiB is free.
+    buf9 = empty_strided_cuda((s10, 1, 128256), ..., torch.float32)
+
+128256 is the vocabulary, so that allocation is the fp32 cross-entropy logits.
+Recompute was already `full`/`uniform`, so activations were not the slack. The
+standing cost per GPU is `(2+4)*P/TP + 12*P/N` -- bf16 parameters, fp32
+main_grad, and the DP-sharded optimizer:
+
+    TP=1   48 + 12 = 60 GB   <- failed, ~19 GB left against a ~20 GB step
+    TP=2   24 + 12 = 36 GB
+    TP=4   12 + 12 = 24 GB
+    TP=8    6 + 12 = 18 GB
+
+TP also shards the vocabulary, so the logits buffer shrinks with it. TP=8 fits
+but forces DP=1, which orbit's own preflight treats as degenerate
+(`STAGE_GPU_REQUIREMENTS["p3"] == 2`, because DP=1 makes the reduction a
+no-op), and pays a per-layer all-reduce across all 32 layers for headroom that
+is not needed. Hence GPUS/2, rounded down to a power of two: DP stays >= 2.
+
+These tests execute the launcher under ORBIT_DRY_RUN_ARGV rather than grepping
+it, so they pin the value that actually reaches Megatron.

+
+Rung 2a of the SWE harness (design doc 2026-07-07-swe-harness-scoping.md):
+single-turn patch RL. The model emits a unified diff; the reward applies it
+plus the row's test_patch inside the instance's Apptainer image and runs the
+FAIL_TO_PASS + PASS_TO_PASS suites. Pure logic tested here; the container
+path is verified by the golden-patch oracle (tools/swe_rm_oracle.py).

+# Merge OFT Adapters
+
+Merge OFT adapters from multiple Orbit runs with compatible base model and OFT
+configuration.
+
+```bash
+python tools/merge_oft_adapters.py \
+  --adapters RUN_A/iter_0000800/adapter RUN_B/iter_0000800/adapter \
+  --output /path/merged_oft \
+  --method oft \
+  --weights 0.5 0.5 \
+  --save-megatron \
+  --save-hf \
+  --base /path/to/hf/base
+```
+
+`--method oft` is Orbit's native OrthoMerge strategy: magnitude-corrected
+Lie-algebra averaging on OFT skew parameters. It supports optional per-adapter
+weights. `--method oft-naive` is a plain average baseline.
+
+`--method oft-original` reproduces the equal-weight adapter-only formula used by
+the original OrthoMerge OFT script. It rejects `--weights` by design and is most
+useful for parity checks and reproductions.
+
+## Outputs
+
+- `<output>/merged_adapter/`: HF PEFT OFT adapter, useful for re-merge/export.
+- `<output>/merged_megatron/`: Megatron-native adapter shards, written with
+  `--save-megatron`, resumable/servable in Orbit via `--peft-adapter-path`.
+- `<output>/merged_model_hf/`: dense HF model with the merged rotation baked in,
+  written with `--save-hf`.
+
+All input adapters must share `oft_type`, `oft_block_size`, `target_modules`,
+and `base_model_name_or_path`.
+
+## Single-Adapter Bake
+
+To bake one OFT adapter into a standalone dense HF model:
+
+```bash
+python tools/bake_oft_to_hf.py \
+  --base /path/to/hf/base \
+  --adapter RUN_A/iter_0000800/adapter \
+  --output /path/baked_hf \
+  --device cuda:0
+```
+
+This is useful for evaluation stacks that expect dense HF weights.
+
+## Reference Comparison
+
+`tools/orthomerge_bridge.py` contains small utilities to run the original
+OrthoMerge OFT script, run Orbit's merge path, summarize adapters, and compare
+the resulting tensors.

+r"""Ray-based Megatron torch_dist to HuggingFace conversion.
+
+This is a high-throughput converter for large Kimi/DeepSeek-style checkpoints.
+The core idea is to parallelize conversion work using distributed processes on Ray.
+Conversion is an embarrassingly parallel problem, so it exhibits strong scaling with the number of nodes.
+
+System flow:

+"""Known-answer oracle for the Lean grader (real kimina-lean-server).
+
+Boots nothing — expects a running server at --lean-server-url. Checks:
+- a trivially TRUE proof (norm_num on 1+1=2)          -> 1.0
+- the same statement left as ``sorry``                 -> 0.0
+- garbage lean                                         -> 0.0
+- a real blend row's formal_statement with a `sorry`   -> 0.0 (compiles to a
+  sorry-warning, proving header+statement parse against Mathlib)
+
+Exits 0 iff all four verdicts are correct.
+
+Usage:
+    python tools/lean_rm_oracle.py --lean-server-url http://127.0.0.1:8000 \\
+        [--swe-jsonl .../splits/rlvr1... ] # optional real-row check
+
+Booting the kimina-lean-server SIF under Apptainer needs this exact env
+(the image assumes its Docker runtime; --contain/--cleanenv strip what it
+needs, so pass it back explicitly). See logs/lean_oracle_run.sh:
+    apptainer exec --contain --cleanenv --writable-tmpfs \\
+      --env ELAN_HOME=/root/.elan \\        # find pre-installed v4.15.0 toolchain
+      --env HOME=/root \\                    # (elan/lake write scratch here)
+      --env LEAN_PATH=<abs mathlib4 + 8 deps + toolchain/lib/lean> \\
+      --env LEAN_SERVER_PROJECT_DIR=/mathlib4 \\
+      --env LEAN_SERVER_REPL_PATH=/repl/.lake/build/bin/repl \\
+      --pwd /root/kimina-lean-server SIF python -m server
+Without ELAN_HOME, elan resolves the host $HOME (quota-full) and re-downloads
+Lean -> "No space". Without LEAN_PATH, the server execs the REPL directly
+(not via `lake env`) so import Mathlib fails -> "Failed to run header on REPL".
+The full absolute LEAN_PATH is spelled out in logs/lean_oracle_run.sh.

+"""The LoRA-without-regret experiment matrices.
+
+Two LR grids, because the LoRA and FullFT optima sit a decade apart and one
+shared grid would spend most of its points where nothing happens.
+
+Matrices selected by ``sweep.py --matrix``:
+
+* ``sft82`` (:func:`sft_arms`) -- the original 82-arm LoRA/OFT matrix, on 7-point
+  grids that *bracket* the published optima. Kept byte-for-byte because the gate
+  log records its dry run. Its OFT arms are superseded by ``e5``: they solve the
+  block size from the square attention shape (all-modules lands at parameter ratio
+  0.75) and put 35 of 40 on LoRA's LR grid, which the plan says is not justified
+  for a rotation parameterization.
+* ``e1`` / ``e2`` / ``e3`` -- the campaign matrices of
+  ``docs/superpowers/plans/2026-07-28-lora-without-regret-experiments.md``, on
+  5-point 0.3-decade grids *centred* on the post's own predictions. Centring is
+  the point: a confirmation is then a hit rather than a fit.
+* ``e4`` -- RL (C5). Scored by accuracy, not NLL, and driven through the RL
+  launcher; two seven-point windows an order of magnitude apart, each spanning
+  200x, because C5's second half is about the *width* of the performant band.
+* ``e4oftb128low`` -- a dedicated Math-only BS128 OFT scout below the original
+  E4 learning-rate window. It isolates learning rate while holding capacity,
+  placement, seed, and the full E4 protocol fixed.
+* ``e4oftb128refine`` -- a dedicated Math-only BS128 OFT learning-rate
+  refinement around the established E4 region, with capacity, placement, seed,
+  and the full E4 protocol held fixed.
+* ``e4oftenv2`` -- the clean env2 OFT rerun grid for MATH and GSM8K. It fixes
+  block size 128 and centres seven learning-rate columns on the historical
+  MATH optimum, 7e-6.
+* ``e5scout`` / ``e5`` -- matched-parameter OFT. The scout comes first and the
+  refinement grid is centred on its argmin; see :func:`e5_arms` for why the match
+  is solved by inverting to a LoRA rank rather than by choosing a block size.
+
+The two grid styles are deliberately not unified. Bracketing answers "where is
+the optimum", centring answers "is the optimum where the post says".

+"""Recover what the E4 ledgers lost, from the logs that were written anyway.
+
+Seven gsm8k columns ran to completion and every arm landed in its ledger as
+`accuracy: null, status: "failed"`. Neither training nor the node was at fault:
+
+  1. train.py's generation-eval call omitted `num_rollout`, so
+     `should_run_periodic_action`'s final-rollout branch was dead. At
+     EVAL_INTERVAL=100000 -- chosen precisely to mean "once, at the end" -- the
+     modulo never matched either, so the arms produced ZERO post-training evals.
+     The only `eval` line in those logs is rollout 0's, from the separate
+     eval-before-train branch: the untrained policy.
+  2. `parse_final_accuracy` was handed a fixed ("math_test", "gsm8k_test") while
+     `arm_env` had told the launcher to score gsm8k alone. It fails closed on a
+     missing dataset, so even that rollout-0 eval parsed to None.
+
+Both are fixed. Neither fix retrieves a number nobody measured, and the arms
+saved no checkpoints (SAVE_INTERVAL is empty by protocol, deliberately), so
+held-out accuracy for those arms is gone -- they have to be re-run.
+
+What is NOT gone is the training-reward curve. `raw_reward` is the mean reward
+over the batch the policy just generated, and with --rm-type math the reward is
+exactly 1 or 0, so it is accuracy on the training batch: a real learning curve,
+logged every rollout, for ~40 node-hours of finished work. It answers what the
+campaign was actually asking -- which learning rates train and which blow up,
+and how wide each method's stable band is -- just on train rather than on
+held-out data. This writes it out.
+
+Two rules this deliberately follows:
+
+  Reward is never written to `accuracy`. `analyze` picks argmins off that field,
+  and a figure built from training reward while labelled held-out accuracy is a
+  worse outcome than a missing figure.
+
+  A backfilled row is never promoted to `status: "ok"` on the strength of a
+  reward curve. `campaign.sh` skips ok arms on resume, so promoting them would
+  quietly retire exactly the arms that most need re-running. A row IS promoted
+  when a genuine POST-TRAINING eval is recovered -- which is what the arms
+  running under the fixed train.py, but recorded by an already-imported old
+  sweep.py, will need.
+
+Usage:
+
+    python -m tools.lora_regret.backfill --ledgers 'results/e4_gsm8k_lr*.jsonl'
+
+Writes results/backfill/<ledger>.jsonl by default and prints a summary table.
+It does not touch the source ledgers unless asked (--in-place), because the
+campaigns append to those files while they run.

+"""Gate G4: score the held-out set through HuggingFace and compare against Orbit.
+
+Orbit's step-0 reference, on the untrained Qwen3-4B base model over the 100 No Robots test
+rows (produced by `examples/sft/run-qwen3-4b-norobots-sft.sh` with `LR=0.0`):
+
+    nll = 3.589597   sample_mean = 4.232735   tokens = 18472   samples = 100
+
+This script recomputes the same quantity with HuggingFace's own forward pass. Agreement
+validates, in one shot, four things that Orbit's evaluator could otherwise only be argued
+to get right: the log-prob/token index alignment, the packed-logits layout, the
+token-weighted reduction, and the temperature bypass.
+
+Why this script exists instead of the vendored oracle (`third_party/lora-without-regret/
+sft_full.py`, a community reproduction deleted 2026-08-02 -- see the runbook's
+§22.6; the reasoning below is kept because it is why this file was written):
+that script's real flag surface was exactly `--model-id --lr --wandb-project
+--wandb-run-name --no-wandb --batch-size --gradient-accumulation-steps --num-epochs
+--output-dir --seed` (verified by reading it). There is no `--max-steps` and no `--dtype`.
+Nothing in that list stops the run after step 0 -- `--lr 0.0` alone still runs a full epoch
+of forward+backward over all 6400 training rows as a training-shaped no-op, purely to reach
+the same step-0 print this script produces directly. That is not a reasonable way to get one
+forward pass over 100 held-out rows, so G4's HF side is scored here instead.
+
+Deliberate choices:
+
+* The loss mask comes from Orbit's own `MultiTurnLossMaskGenerator` (tokenizer_type
+  "qwen3"), which gate G3 already verified token-for-token against an independent HF
+  reference on all 100 of these rows. Re-deriving the mask here would test the mask twice
+  and the loss computation not at all.
+* Orbit's mask is TARGET-indexed: `loss_mask[j] == 1` means token `j` is scored. Under a
+  causal LM the logit at position `j-1` predicts token `j`, hence the standard shift
+  `logits[:-1]` against `labels[1:]`.
+* `--dtype` selects the HF-side forward precision. The cross-entropy itself always
+  accumulates in float32 regardless of `--dtype`, so the sum over ~18.5k tokens does not
+  lose precision to bf16 accumulation on top of a bf16 forward. G4's pass condition (design
+  doc §7.2) needs this run twice -- once at `bfloat16` (matches Orbit's compute; this is the
+  actual gate comparison) and once at `float32` (establishes the measured bf16-vs-fp32
+  spread that the gate's tolerance is defined against, since a fixed sub-1e-3-nat bar is not
+  achievable here).
+* Both the token-weighted mean (what the study reports) and the sample mean are printed,
+  because the two differ by ~0.64 nats here and confusing them is a ~70x error against a
+  target table spanning 0.009 nats.
+
+This script only prints the HF-side numbers and the delta against Orbit's reference; it does
+not bake in a pass/fail threshold. Whether G4 passes depends on comparing the delta against
+the *measured* bf16-vs-fp32 spread (run this script at both `--dtype` values), per design
+doc §7.2 -- not a fixed constant.
+
+Usage (see docs/superpowers/plans/2026-07-27-lora-without-regret-repro.md Task 11 Step 2):
+
+    python tools/lora_regret/g4_hf_nll.py --dtype bfloat16   # -> logs/lora_regret/g4_hf.log
+    python tools/lora_regret/g4_hf_nll.py --dtype float32    # -> logs/lora_regret/g4_hf_fp32.log

+"""Convert the LoRA-without-regret datasets into Orbit's JSONL format.
+
+There are two output schemas because there are two consumers:
+
+* Tulu3, OpenThoughts3, and No Robots feed SFT. `sft_rollout.generate_rollout`
+  hands `sample.prompt` to `MultiTurnLossMaskGenerator`, so `prompt` stays a
+  list of `{"role", "content"}` messages and launchers must not pass
+  `--apply-chat-template`.
+* MATH, GSM8K, and competition_math feed RL. They use Orbit's standard
+  `--input-key prompt --label-key label` contract with a string prompt.
+
+Also builds `tests/fast/fixtures/lora_regret/llama3_sample.jsonl`: a small,
+real, multi-turn-heavy Tulu3 sample (same list-of-messages `prompt` schema as
+No Robots) that the llama-3 loss-mask parity gate diffs against an HF oracle.
+See `select_llama3_conversations` for why "multi-turn-heavy" is load-bearing.

+"""One run per (task, method): does the method work, and how long is the real arm?
+
+The probe runs every (matrix, method) pair once for `PROBE_ROLLOUTS` rollouts and
+reports two things:
+
+1. **Does it work.** A method that cannot start, cannot wrap the model, or never
+   reaches the eval line fails here in minutes rather than on the 40th arm of a
+   reserved node.
+2. **How long is the real thing.** `train.py` already logs `progress ... last=`
+   per rollout, so the probe reads a measured per-rollout time rather than
+   inferring one from wall clock, and multiplies it by the rollout count that
+   arm would really run.
+
+A probe row is **not a measurement**. It carries a `probe_rollouts` field, and
+`analyze` refuses any ledger containing one -- three rollouts produce a
+real-looking `test_nll`, and a ledger that mixed the two would decide an argmin
+from a learning rate that trained for ninety seconds.

+"""Ten rollouts per method, then a verdict on every link between GPU and figure.
+
+This exists because the coverage probe was not enough. It ran, it passed, and
+the campaign it cleared then spent ~40 node-hours producing ledgers in which
+every single row read `accuracy: null, status: "failed"`. Nothing crashed.
+Training was fine. Three separate defects sat downstream of the part the probe
+checks:
+
+  1. train.py's generation-eval call omitted `num_rollout`, so
+     `should_run_periodic_action`'s final-rollout branch was unreachable. At
+     EVAL_INTERVAL=100000 -- chosen to mean "evaluate once, at the end" -- the
+     modulo never matched either, and the arms produced ZERO post-training
+     evals. The only eval in those logs is rollout 0's: the untrained policy.
+  2. `parse_final_accuracy` demanded ("math_test", "gsm8k_test") while
+     `arm_env` had told the launcher to score gsm8k alone. It fails closed on a
+     missing dataset, so even that rollout-0 eval parsed to None.
+  3. RUN_LOG is a fixed path per arm and the launcher opens it with `tee -a`,
+     so a retried arm appends to its predecessor and every parser answered
+     about a run that never happened -- 258 rollout timings on a 150-rollout
+     row.
+
+The probe could not have caught any of them, because it asks "does this method
+run, and how fast" and all three sit AFTER that. So the question here is
+different, and it is the only question that matters before a node is booked:
+
+    does a number measured on the GPU reach the ledger, correctly labelled?
+
+Every check below is a defect that has actually happened, and the run is
+deliberately tiny -- 10 rollouts, three arms -- because catching them costs
+minutes and missing them costs a reservation.
+
+    bash scripts/lora_regret/smoke_e4_8gpu.sh
+
+`plan` prints the three arms; `check` reads the ledger and the logs afterwards
+and exits non-zero with the specific broken link named.

+"""Rollout determinism harness (true-on-policy Phase 2).
+
+Certifies that an SGLang server produces *byte-identical* prefill log-probs
+regardless of batch composition — the rollout half of the true-on-policy
+parity ladder (design doc: docs/plans/2026-07-06-true-on-policy-design.md).
+
+Method:
+1. Take (or generate) a fixed set of token sequences.
+2. Score every sequence via prefill-only requests (``max_new_tokens=0,
+   return_logprob=True, logprob_start_len=0``), flushing the radix/KV cache
+   before each batch, under several *different* batch compositions
+   (one big batch / reversed uneven triples / one-by-one).
+3. Assert the per-token log-probs are exactly equal across compositions.
+
+Run against a server started with ``--enable-deterministic-inference`` (and a
+deterministic attention backend: fa3/triton/flashinfer) — expected PASS.
+Against a default server this harness is the negative control: batch-variant
+kernels should produce visible differences.

+
+    {"t_wall": ..., "engine_url": ..., "ok": true,
+     "counters": {"sglang:realtime_tokens_total{mode=decode}": 12345.0, ...}}
+
+Failed scrapes are recorded too (``"ok": false`` with an ``error`` field) — a
+scrape gap IS signal: the engine was unresponsive, e.g. paused for a weight
+update.
+
+Endpoints:
+- ``metrics`` (default): scrapes the Prometheus ``/metrics`` endpoint
+  (requires the engine to run with ``--enable-metrics``) and sums the
+  configured cumulative counters over their label sets. Defaults to
+  ``sglang:realtime_tokens_total{mode=decode}`` (incremented per forward
+  pass — fine-grained enough for 100 ms bins) plus
+  ``sglang:generation_tokens_total`` (incremented per finished request) as a
+  cross-check/fallback.
+- ``server_info``: scrapes ``/server_info`` (always available) and records
+  the ``last_gen_throughput`` gauge summed over ``internal_states``. Coarser
+  (smoothed over SGLang's own log interval) — use when ``--enable-metrics``
+  is off.
+
+Run alongside training:
+
+    python tools/rollout_timeline/probe.py \

+"""Golden-episode oracle for the agentic SWE loop (rung 2b acceptance gate).
+
+Drives the REAL episode machinery — real Qwen tokenizer/chat template (the
+append-only prefix assertion runs against the true template), real Apptainer
+container session, real SWE-bench verification — with a scripted "model":
+
+- golden episode: turn 1 applies the instance's golden patch via run_shell
+  (base64-decoded, no quoting hazards), turn 2 submits -> reward MUST be 1.0;
+- lazy episode: submits immediately -> reward MUST be 0.0.

+Only the /generate HTTP call is faked (scripted turn texts, token ids from
+the real tokenizer). Exits 0 iff both verdicts are correct.

+
+Every SWE-rebench row ships its golden fix, giving swe_rm a perfect
+end-to-end test against the real container:
+
+- the GOLDEN patch must earn reward 1.0 (FAIL_TO_PASS turn green,
+  PASS_TO_PASS stay green);
+- a GARBAGE patch must earn 0.0;
+- an empty response must earn 0.0 without touching the container.
