# 11 — Pass a real heterogeneous two-machine route
Status: ready-for-agent
## Mandatory fresh-session context
- Read [RALPH-CONTEXT.md](../RALPH-CONTEXT.md) completely before changing code.
- This issue is `DGR-011` in [prd.json](../prd.json).
- Read the evidence README for every dependency listed below.
- Inspect current code and `git status`; historical text and previous agent claims are not evidence.
## Description
As a consumer-hardware operator, I need two physical machines to execute one GGUF model so that the distributed claim is real.
## Expected durable outputs
- Two-machine hardware/network/runtime manifest
- Raw real-route metrics and output evidence
- evidence/DGR-011/README.md
## Acceptance criteria
- [ ] Tracker selects two physical nodes with disjoint Shards and one exact certified recipe/compatibility class.
- [ ] Actual CPU/GPU execution occurs on both nodes; synthetic workers do not satisfy acceptance.
- [ ] Prefill/decode, concurrent-session isolation, telemetry, cancellation, and cleanup pass over the real transport/relay path.
- [ ] Exact hardware, network, backend, model hash, route, commands, and raw metrics are recorded.
- [ ] A model or recipe larger than one participating node's admitted memory is exercised when available.
- [ ] Output drift is measured and incompatible mixed backends fail closed.
- [ ] Targeted pytest tests pass
- [ ] python -m compileall packages tests passes for Python changes
- [ ] git diff --check passes
- [ ] Default tests remain deterministic, model-download-free, API-credit-free, and GPU-free
- [ ] Full deterministic pytest -q passes, or the exact pre-existing unrelated failure is recorded with a clean-tree reproduction
- [ ] Pinned native C++ target builds and focused CTest/protocol tests pass where native code is touched
- [ ] llama.cpp patch stack applies cleanly to the exact pinned commit where patch code is touched
- [ ] Real-model execution is opt-in through MESHNET_ENABLE_REAL_INFERENCE_TESTS=1 and records exact artifact/runtime/hardware evidence
- [ ] Model artifacts remain on the configured mounted-drive storage and never under /home
- [ ] Read .scratch/distributed-gguf-runtime/RALPH-CONTEXT.md and this story issue completely before changing code
- [ ] Read and verify every dependency evidence README before relying on dependency behavior
- [ ] Preserve all pre-existing working-tree changes and stage only files belonging to this story
- [ ] Write .scratch/distributed-gguf-runtime/evidence/DGR-011/README.md with files changed, exact commands and real results, limitations, compatibility notes, and dependent-story handoff
- [ ] Update only this story issue to Status: done after every acceptance criterion and quality gate passes
## Dependency handoff
- `DGR-010` must have `passes: true`; read `../evidence/DGR-010/README.md` and verify its referenced files/commands.
## Finish contract
- Create the task evidence directory and durable handoff required above.
- Preserve real failures and blockers; never fabricate benchmark, model, test or hardware output.
- Change this issue to `Status: done` only after all criteria pass.
- Emit `<promise>COMPLETE</promise>` only after the evidence handoff exists.
