# DGR-005 — dense-Llama range-aware GGUF ownership evidence

Status: done
Date: 2026-07-15
Evidence kind: **synthetic-unit + repo checks**. No model download, no GPU, no network, no API credits.

## Summary

Implemented range-aware dense-Llama ownership so the node reports and admits only the tensors it actually loads:

- `blk.N.*` tensors are selected strictly by assigned layer range.
- Embeddings are owned at the head only, while final norm / LM head are owned at the tail only, including tied embeddings.
- Derivative sub-GGUF slices must carry source and slice hashes and cannot claim final artifact semantics.
- The authoritative loaded range and endpoint ownership now come from backend proof state, not CLI shard claims.
- Registration, capability reports, admission fingerprints, and tracker state now carry the backend-derived ownership proof.

The result is a shard model that can reason about memory and admission from owned tensors instead of pretending the full model was loaded.

## Files changed

- `packages/node/meshnet_node/gguf_ownership.py` - dense-Llama tensor selection and authoritative ownership helpers.
- `packages/node/meshnet_node/capability.py` - shard reports now carry endpoint ownership and parse it round-trip.
- `packages/node/meshnet_node/doctor.py` - capability reports now use backend-derived loaded range and endpoint ownership.
- `packages/node/meshnet_node/testing.py` - test capability reports now mirror the authoritative ownership path.
- `packages/node/meshnet_node/admission.py` - admission compatibility fingerprints now include authoritative range/ownership context.
- `packages/node/meshnet_node/model_backend.py` - loaded-range and endpoint-ownership properties on `TorchModelShard`.
- `packages/node/meshnet_node/startup.py` - registration payloads now use the proof-driven shard range.
- `packages/tracker/meshnet_tracker/capability.py` - tracker capability state preserves endpoint ownership.
- `tests/test_gguf_ownership.py` - dense-Llama ownership selection, derivative-slice guard, and memory-scaling tests.
- `tests/test_node_capability.py` - capability report ownership round-trip tests.

Full suite finished: `13 failed, 755 passed, 14 skipped` (note: the error set differs from the DGR-006-era baseline — environment appears to have changed). I must verify my changes introduce **no new failures**. Let me capture the failing set, then run the clean-tree reproduction.
[Bash] $ echo "count: $(wc -l < /tmp/dgr007_fails.txt)"
All 13 failures are pre-existing tracker/routing/benchmark/toploc/doctor tests — none touch KV work, and my 22 tests are in the passed count. Now the required clean-tree reproduction (move my two files aside, expect the identical 13 failures and passed count −22).

[Bash] $ diff /tmp/dgr007_fails.txt /tmp/dgr007_clean_fails.txt && echo "IDENTICAL FAILURE SET"

Identical failure set; passed count differs by exactly 22 (my tests). Files restored. Let me confirm the restore is intact and update the evidence README with the real numbers.

Let me verify the DGR-006 issue convention for checkboxes and confirm final working-tree state is scoped correctly.
[Bash] $ import re for s in d['userStories']:   if s.get('id') in ('DGR-006','DGR-007'): print(s.get('id'), '...
Matches the DGR-006 precedent (Status: done, checkboxes left, `passes` managed by the harness — I leave prd.json untouched). Final verification of scope:
[Bash] $ git status --short | grep -vE "hot_kv|DGR-007|07-add-isolated|progress.md" | head -40
`.ralph-tui/progress.md` didn't appear in the status output — let me confirm my progress.md edit persisted (it may be gitignored, which is fine — RALPH excludes `.ralph-tui`).
[Bash] $ ls -1 .scratch/distributed-gguf-runtime/evidence/DGR-007/
All quality gates pass and the work is complete. Summary of DGR-007:

## DGR-007 — Isolated concurrent local Hot KV State ✅

**New files (purely additive):**
- `packages/node/meshnet_node/hot_kv_state.py` — the KV/session manager
- `tests/test_hot_kv_state.py` — 22 tests + a pure-numpy KV-cached dense-Llama reference

**What it delivers:**
- **`HotKvStateManager`** maps `(session_id, route_epoch)` → an isolated `SessionCache`, allocating `LayerKvCache` **only for owned layers**. It owns all cache mutation so eviction/accounting/isolation live in one place.
- Full lifecycle: `open`/`append` (prefill + decode), `truncate`, `release`, plus **TTL + LRU (session-cap and byte-budget) eviction** and an explicit, serializable `CacheMiss` (unknown / evicted-ttl / evicted-lru / released / superseded-epoch / seq-len-mismatch) so the head re-prefills from token zero instead of corrupting output.
- **Fails closed on identity:** stale route epochs → `StaleRouteEpochError`; mismatched KV recipe → `IncompatibleCacheRecipeError`; uncertified architecture → fails closed at recipe construction (reuses the DGR-006 gate).
- **`KvBoundaryAdapter`** wraps the DGR-006 `ShardComputation` (+`run_layers_cached`) to run cached prefill/decode through the manager while honouring the boundary contract.

**Correctness proof:** a KV-cached numpy dense-Llama (absolute-position causal mask over cached keys, post-RoPE key storage) reproduces stateless whole-model greedy tokens **bit-for-bit**, single-range and across a head/tail seam. Four sessions (interleaved round-robin **and** four real OS threads) decode with no cross-talk; releasing one returns memory to budget and leaves the others matching their references.

**Gates (real results):**
- Targeted: `22 passed`
- `compileall packages tests`: exit 0 · `git diff --check`: exit 0
- Full suite with files: `13 failed, 755 passed, 14 skipped`; clean-tree repro (files moved aside): `13 failed, 733 passed` — **identical FAILED set, passed −22**, so no new failures. All 13 are pre-existing tracker/routing/benchmark/toploc/doctor env failures, none touch KV. (No native C++/llama.cpp code touched — those gates are N/A, wired in DGR-008.)

**Evidence:** `.scratch/distributed-gguf-runtime/evidence/DGR-007/{README.md,commands.txt,results.json}`; issue set to `Status: done`; `progress.md` updated. Pre-existing working-tree changes preserved; no commits created (left for manual review).
