# Performant concurrent distributed GGUF runtime
|
|
|
|
Status: active benchmark-gated implementation program.
|
|
|
|
## Objective
|
|
|
|
Serve top open models across consumer machines with useful performance and concurrent Route Sessions while keeping the runtime lean.
|
|
|
|
## Critical path
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
Meshnet control plane
|
|
-> versioned gRPC/Protobuf Shard protocol
|
|
-> project-owned standalone C++ worker
|
|
-> small pinned llama.cpp patch stack
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Transformers/safetensors remains the correctness baseline. vLLM remains an optional complete managed provider and a design donor; it is not forked into the public mesh.
|
|
|

## Ralph execution
|
|
|
|
Use supervised one-story iterations for this high-risk runtime:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
ralph-tui run \
|
|
--prd .scratch/distributed-gguf-runtime/prd.json \
|
|
--agent claude --model opus \
|
|
--iterations 1 --no-tui --no-setup --verify
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Inspect the diff, run the story gates, and commit one verified story before the next iteration. Real-model stories require the explicit environment gate and mounted-drive model storage.
