# 04 — Create the reproducible pinned llama.cpp patch stack
Status: ready-for-agent
## Mandatory fresh-session context
- Read [RALPH-CONTEXT.md](../RALPH-CONTEXT.md) completely before changing code.
- This issue is `DGR-004` 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 maintainer, I need a small auditable fork boundary so that upstream updates do not turn the runtime into an unmaintainable stitched codebase.
## Expected durable outputs
- Exact llama.cpp upstream pin
- Numbered minimal patch stack
- Reproducible fetch/apply/build smoke
- evidence/DGR-004/README.md
## Acceptance criteria
- [ ] Pin one exact llama.cpp commit through a reproducible source dependency mechanism.
- [ ] Store a numbered minimal patch stack separately from Meshnet networking code.
- [ ] Add a build script that applies/checks patches and builds the standalone worker without manual source copying.
- [ ] Record upstream file/ABI assumptions and fail clearly when the pin changes.
- [ ] Preserve upstream license and attribution notices.
- [ ] Add a clean rebuild smoke test that does not download a model.
- [ ] 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
- [ ] 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-004/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-001` must have `passes: true`; read `../evidence/DGR-001/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.
