+description: Find evidence-backed simplification candidates in vLLM-Omni and, when requested, turn them into focused proposals or code changes. Use for audits of dead, duplicated, speculative, over-generalized, unnecessarily defensive, or hand-rolled code. Use review-pr for ordinary correctness review and diffusion-perf-opt for performance-first optimization.
+---
+
+# Find vLLM-Omni Simplifications
+
+Find a small number of well-proven ways to reduce code, state, APIs, or maintenance cost without weakening supported behavior. Treat this as an architecture and ownership audit, not a dead-code search or style cleanup.
+
+The default deliverable is a read-only report. Do not add TODOs, design documents, issues, or code unless the user asks for those changes.
+
+## Establish the Contract
+
+Before judging a candidate:
+
+1. Read the repository instructions supplied by the host.
+2. Read [`docs/design/architecture_overview.md`](../../../docs/design/architecture_overview.md).
+3. Select only the relevant active module and feature documents from [`docs/design/index.md`](../../../docs/design/index.md). Archived design pages are historical context, not current contracts.
+4. Identify the comparison base with `git merge-base HEAD origin/main`; do not assume the current branch represents the intended baseline.
+5. If tests or CI coverage may change, use [`vllm-omni-test`](../vllm-omni-test/SKILL.md) for test placement, markers, and commands.
+
+Separate an implementation accident from an intentional boundary. In particular:
+
+- vLLM-Omni extends and sometimes overrides upstream vLLM. A similar upstream implementation is evidence for reuse only after comparing API, lifecycle, and multi-stage semantics.
+- Registries, import strings, model configuration, deployment YAML, plugins, and optional dependencies create dynamic consumers that a static reference count can miss.
+- Hardware backends, model families, execution modes, and connector implementations may be intentionally parallel. Do not propose collapsing one only because it is inactive in the local environment.
+- Stage, replica, request, cache, and transport state can look redundant while representing different owners. Prove that two fields or barriers encode the same fact before merging them.
+- A shorter hot path is not a simplification if it adds synchronization, tensor copies, host materialization, recompilation, or a measurable quality/performance regression.
+
+## Strong Candidates
+
+A strong candidate removes a meaningful surface and has a clear replacement or deletion boundary. Examples include:
+
+- A public method, configuration option, registry entry, route, message field, or event has no production consumer and no compatibility obligation.
+- Tests or documentation are the only consumers of behavior that is not part of a supported contract.
+- Multiple layers mirror the same request, lifecycle, cache-validity, readiness, or topology state.
+- AR, diffusion, platform, or model-specific implementations duplicate a stable common operation and can share it without hiding performance-critical differences.
+- An inherited upstream vLLM primitive is reimplemented locally without an Omni-specific semantic difference.
+- Compatibility or fallback branches protect environments the project no longer supports.
+- Serialization, IPC, output formatting, or connector code materializes the same payload more than once or converts between equivalent representations.
+- A helper, abstraction, package split, or extension point has only one real implementation and adds more indirection than policy.
+- Hand-written infrastructure can be replaced by an existing project dependency, Python standard-library feature, PyTorch primitive, or upstream vLLM facility with net deletion and equal observability.
+- Tests maintain large mocks, snapshots, or expected data solely for an unused API or representation.
+
+Do not elevate typo fixes, formatting, isolated renames, or vague complexity complaints into simplification candidates. Bundle small cleanups only when they support one substantive removal.
+
+## Survey by Ownership Boundary
+
+For broad audits, cover the largest or riskiest production deltas first. Useful domains are:
+
+- `vllm_omni/engine/`: orchestration, stage pools, request state, output convergence, cancellation, and replica lifecycle.
+- `vllm_omni/worker/` and AR model execution: upstream vLLM overlays, scheduler/cache state, collective RPC, adapters, and weight loading.
+- `vllm_omni/diffusion/`: request/step execution, batching, output materialization, IPC, offload, parallelism, and model pipelines.
+- `vllm_omni/entrypoints/`: duplicated validation/defaulting, offline/online parity, streaming, and route compatibility.
+- Connectors and distributed code: ownership, copies, barriers, handles, cleanup, and failure propagation across process/device/node boundaries.
+- Platform backends: genuine vendor differences versus copied control flow that has drifted.
+- Configuration, registries, recipes, and examples: duplicate sources of truth and options that never reach a runtime consumer.
+- Tests and CI: redundant fixtures, mocks of obsolete contracts, and expensive coverage that can move to a cheaper level without losing the guarded behavior.
+
+When the user explicitly requests a repository-wide or many-candidate audit and parallel agent work is available and authorized, divide these domains among agents and require the same evidence format from each. Otherwise survey them sequentially.
+
+## Prove or Reject Each Candidate
+
+Use `rg` first, then read every relevant caller and implementation. Search exact Python symbols plus serialized names, route paths, configuration keys, registry strings, YAML values, and CLI spellings.
+
+Classify evidence:
+
+- **Production:** `vllm_omni/`, runtime configuration, registries, serving entrypoints, connectors, recipes used for supported deployments, and executable loader paths.
+- **Validation/support:** `tests/`, benchmarks, examples, docs, CI, and developer tooling.
+- **External/dynamic:** upstream vLLM contracts, third-party plugins, model repositories, optional backends, and string-loaded objects. State what was checked and what remains unknown.
+
+For each candidate, answer:
+
+1. What exact surface would disappear or merge?
+2. Who owns the state or behavior today?
+3. Which production consumers exist, including dynamic consumers?
+4. What supported behavior, compatibility, performance, memory, or observability could change?
+5. What is the smallest validation that would catch a bad simplification?
+6. Is the result net deletion after tests, adapters, migration glue, and documentation are counted?
+
+Reject or downgrade the candidate when a live consumer exists and removal is actually a feature decision; when an active design contract explains the separation; when the change only moves complexity; or when hardware/model evidence is unavailable for a performance-sensitive claim.
+
+## Lifecycle and Data-Movement Audits
+
+For asynchronous or distributed code, map the ownership graph before recommending deletion:
+
+```text
+request admission -> orchestrator -> stage/replica -> worker/device
+  -> connector or IPC boundary -> output aggregation -> terminal cleanup
+```
+
+Associate every lock, event, sentinel, queue, readiness flag, timeout, abort path, and cache marker with an owner and transition. Coalesce mechanisms only when they represent the same state and have the same failure boundary. Preserve separate mechanisms when they protect publication versus rollback, local versus remote ownership, first-terminal-outcome arbitration, or cleanup after partial failure.
+
+For tensors and media, also trace device, process, and ownership transitions. Count GPU-to-CPU copies, shared-memory/object-store handles, serialization, decode/encode steps, and unlink/release responsibility. Prefer eliminating a transfer or representation over merely hiding it behind a helper.
+
+## Dependency Replacements
+
+Prefer facilities already available in the repository before adding a dependency. For a proposed replacement:
+
+- Name the exact local behavior it covers and any semantics that remain in glue code.
+- Check maintenance, license, optional-dependency boundaries, platform support, and transitive footprint.
+- Compare net deletion, test burden, import/startup cost, and runtime behavior.
+- Benchmark when the replaced code is on a model, scheduler, connector, serialization, or serving hot path.
+
+A wrapper that retains the same state machine or conversion logic is not a simplification.
+
+## Deliver the Result
+
+Report only candidates supported by concrete evidence. For each one include:
+
+- **Surface:** files and symbols involved.
+- **Evidence:** production consumers found, dynamic paths checked, and relevant design contract.
+- **Simplification:** exactly what to remove, merge, inline, or reuse.
+- **Benefit:** deleted API/state/code, reduced data movement, or reduced maintenance/test burden.
+- **Risk and validation:** behavior that could change and the narrowest useful tests or measurements.
+- **Confidence:** high or medium, with the unresolved evidence named for medium-confidence items.
+
+Also list representative ideas that were rejected when that prevents repeated investigation. Prefer three high-confidence candidates over a long speculative inventory.
+
+If the user asks for a durable design proposal, place it under `docs/design/feature/` and register it in `docs/design/index.md`; use current design-document conventions and keep implementation details proportional to the decision. If the user asks for implementation, make the smallest coherent change, update affected tests/docs, and preserve public compatibility unless the user explicitly accepts a breaking change.
+
+## Folding Work from Another Branch
+
+Diff the source branch against its own merge base with `origin/main`, not against the current feature branch. Port only independently justified candidates. Consolidate overlaps into the candidate with stronger evidence, and do not preserve a candidate count by carrying weaker duplicates.
+
+## Validation
+
+Match validation to the outgoing diff:
+
+- Documentation or skill changes: run the repository skill validator when available, check links/paths, search for stale source-specific terminology, and run `git diff --check`.
+- Python changes: run the narrowest relevant pytest coverage through the repository environment, then lint/format the changed files.
+- Distributed, model, hardware, performance, or accuracy changes: run available CPU/static checks and state the exact GPU/NPU/model gap; never present simulated evidence as device validation.
+- Before submission, use [`precheck-pr`](../precheck-pr/SKILL.md) for the branch-level self-review.
+
+When summarizing, distinguish checks that passed from checks that were not runnable, and state the snapshot or branch against which the audit was performed.

+### OmniInteract Realtime Benchmark
+
+OmniInteract runs each video as one native-duplex WebSocket sample in the standard serving-benchmark lifecycle:
+
+```bash
+vllm bench serve --omni \
+  --backend openai-realtime-duplex \
+  --dataset-name omniinteract \
+  --dataset-path /path/to/OmniInteract \
+  --model openbmb/MiniCPM-o-4_5 \
+  --base-url http://127.0.0.1:8000 \
+  --endpoint /v1/realtime \
+  --omniinteract-ref-audio /path/to/reference.wav \
+  --omniinteract-output-dir ./omniinteract-artifacts \
+  --num-prompts 3 \
+  --num-warmups 0
+```
+
+`--dataset-path` accepts an extracted directory, `data.tar[.gz]`, or a Hugging Face dataset ID; omitting it uses
+`lucky-lance/OmniInteract`. `--num-prompts` is the total across subsets and defaults to 3 for OmniInteract; explicit `0`
+selects all and oversize values use all available cases. Reference audio is required, and OmniInteract uses the
+`/v1/realtime` endpoint.
+
+Audio is replayed as 16 kHz PCM16 in 200 ms chunks and video at 1 FPS with real-time pacing. All selected media is decoded
+before timing and remains in client memory for the run, so `--max-concurrency` does not limit media preparation memory; use
+explicit `--num-prompts 0` only when the client has enough RAM for the full dataset. Media commands are bounded by
+`--omniinteract-media-timeout-s`, and concurrency defaults to 1. Standard request-rate, warmup, result-saving, and summary
+options apply. Use `--omniinteract-require-response` only for functional E2E cases; LISTEN is a valid benchmark result.
+
+Each completed case writes `output.wav`, `wav_transcript.json`, `events.json`, `result.json`, and a final `.done` marker under
+`--omniinteract-output-dir`. The root also contains `batch_summary.json` and `official_eval_manifest.jsonl`; failed cases write
+`.failed.json`. Runs sharing one output root are serialized. Completion validates transport, response lifecycle, and artifacts,
+not answer accuracy. Transcript timestamps are serialized playback-queue times. Clipped or cancelled outputs are ineligible and
+omitted from the official manifest; `audio_clipped_bytes` records output beyond the rounded video horizon.
+
+TTFT, TTFP, and RTF start at client receipt of `response.created`. TPOT/ITL use engine stage-0 timing; ITL is emitted only when
+every token interval is present.

+# Environment Variables
+
+Environment variables are process-level configuration shared by the CLI,
+deploy YAML, Python APIs, worker processes, and model integrations. They are
+therefore documented under **User Guide → Configuration**, rather than under
+CLI Reference.
+
+This page describes the public vLLM-Omni environment-variable contract on the
+`latest` documentation branch. Use the documentation for your installed
+vLLM-Omni release when behavior differs.
+
+!!! important "Public contract"
+    Only names in [Public vLLM-Omni variables](#public-vllm-omni-variables) are
+    public Omni configuration. A name found in source code is not automatically
+    supported: model-specific, benchmark, platform, and internal variables have
+    separate ownership and lifecycle rules.
+
+## Naming and implementation boundary
+
+New public variables owned by vLLM-Omni must use the `VLLM_OMNI_` prefix.
+Existing public names with older prefixes remain supported for compatibility,
+but they do not establish naming precedent for new settings. Inherited vLLM
+and third-party names retain the prefix chosen by their owning project.
+
+The source [environment-variable inventory](gh-file:vllm_omni/config/environment_variable_inventory.py)
+records ownership, migration disposition, and redaction metadata. Unlike
+`vllm.envs`, it is not an executable value resolver: existing consumers still
+own parsing, defaults, precedence, and evaluation time. The public tables below
+describe those live consumer contracts. Stable model or stage behavior should
+move to typed configuration, and request-varying behavior should move to a
+request schema instead of adding another environment variable.
+
+## Precedence and evaluation time
+
+There is no repository-wide rule that makes environment variables override (or
+lose to) every CLI, YAML, or request option. The tables below state precedence
+for each public setting. In general:
+
+- request fields should control behavior that can vary per request;
+- typed deploy or stage configuration should control stable model and stage
+  behavior;
+- environment variables are appropriate for process launch, platform
+  integration, emergency diagnostics, and compatibility fallbacks.
+
+An environment variable can be read while a module is imported, when server or
+model configuration is constructed, when a worker is spawned, or whenever a
+property is accessed. Set import- and startup-time variables before invoking
+`vllm serve` or importing vLLM-Omni. Changing the parent shell after workers
+start does not update existing worker environments.
+
+The lifecycle labels used below are:
+
+- **Stable** — reviewed public configuration; changes require compatibility
+  consideration.
+- **Experimental** — public for evaluation, but its contract may still evolve.
+- **Diagnostic** — supported for investigation or temporary mitigation, not as
+  a normal tuning interface.
+- **Deprecated** — compatibility alias; migrate to the named replacement.

+## Public vLLM-Omni variables
+
+### Diffusion backend and cache selection
+
+| Name | Type and default | Applies to and read time | Precedence and invalid values | Lifecycle |
+| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
+| `DIFFUSION_ATTENTION_BACKEND` | Backend name or `auto`; default `auto` (platform selection) | Diffusion stages; read when `OmniDiffusionConfig` is constructed | `diffusion_attention_config.default` wins. An unknown backend fails during backend resolution. | Stable fallback |
+| `DIFFUSION_CACHE_BACKEND` | `none`, `cache_dit`, `tea_cache`, `mag_cache`, `step_cache`, `stepcache`, or `step_cache_dit`; default `none` | Diffusion runner startup | Explicit `cache_backend` in config wins. Otherwise this name wins over the deprecated alias. Unsupported values raise `ValueError` during runner setup. | Stable fallback |
+| `DIFFUSION_CACHE_ADAPTER` | Same values as `DIFFUSION_CACHE_BACKEND`; default `none` | Diffusion runner startup | Used only when neither explicit `cache_backend` nor `DIFFUSION_CACHE_BACKEND` is set. Unsupported values raise `ValueError`. | Deprecated; use `DIFFUSION_CACHE_BACKEND` |
+| `OMNI_DIFFUSION_PROMPT_EMBED_CACHE` | Boolean: `1`, `true`, `yes`, `on`, `0`, `false`, `no`, or `off`; default disabled | Each diffusion runner; resolved during model setup | A recognized environment value overrides the explicit enable setting. An unrecognized value is ignored. | Experimental |
+| `OMNI_DIFFUSION_PROMPT_EMBED_CACHE_SIZE` | Positive integer; default `32` entries | Each diffusion runner; resolved during model setup | A valid environment value overrides the explicit cache size. A non-integer logs a warning; a non-positive value is ignored. | Experimental |
+| `OMNI_DIFFUSION_SESSION_STATE_MANAGER` | Boolean with the same accepted spellings as the prompt cache; default disabled | Experimental diffusion session manager; model setup | A recognized environment value overrides the explicit enable setting. An unrecognized value is ignored. | Experimental |
+| `OMNI_DIFFUSION_SESSION_STATE_MANAGER_MAX_SESSIONS` | Positive integer; default `64` | Experimental diffusion session manager; model setup | A valid environment value overrides the explicit maximum. A non-integer logs a warning; a non-positive value is ignored. | Experimental |
+
+Backend names for `DIFFUSION_ATTENTION_BACKEND` are the members of
+`DiffusionAttentionBackendEnum`, such as `FLASH_ATTN`, `TORCH_SDPA`,
+`SAGE_ATTN`, `FLASHINFER_ATTN`, and `TRTLLM_ATTN`. Platform support still
+depends on the installed kernels and model path.
+
+### Serving and runtime
+
+| Name | Type and default | Applies to and read time | Precedence and invalid values | Lifecycle |
+| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
+| `SPEAKER_SAMPLES_DIR` | Filesystem path; default `~/.cache/vllm-omni/speakers` | Speech server; read when speaker storage initializes | Environment-only setting. The directory is created; filesystem errors propagate. | Stable |
+| `SPEAKER_MAX_UPLOADED` | Integer; default `1000` | Speech server; read when speaker storage initializes | Environment-only setting. A non-integer logs a warning and uses `1000`; range is not otherwise validated. | Stable |
+| `VLLM_OMNI_ASYNC_OUTPUT_TIMEOUT` | Float seconds; default `600` | Diffusion engine async-output wait in `step_streaming`; resolved per call on the request path, not at import | Environment-only setting. A non-float or `<=0` value warns once and uses the default. | Experimental |

+
+## Per-stage environment
+
+Deploy configurations can set arbitrary environment keys for one stage:
+
+```yaml
+stages:
+  - stage_id: 0
+    env:
+      HCCL_IF_BASE_PORT: 23000
+      MY_MODEL_CACHE: /mnt/model-cache
+```
+
+The legacy nested form under `runtime.env` is also accepted. vLLM-Omni converts
+keys and values to strings, applies them while the stage engine or child process
+is launched, logs keys but not values, and restores the parent process's prior
+environment afterward. A child process inherits the scoped values. This keeps
+sibling stages from permanently changing one another's parent environment.
+
+This scoping has two consequences:
+
+1. A setting read inside stage/model initialization can see the stage value.
+2. A setting already cached by an import that occurred before stage launch
+   cannot be changed retroactively with stage `env`.
+
+Stage `env` is an escape hatch for process and third-party settings, not a
+replacement for typed stage configuration. Do not put request-varying behavior
+there. Secret values may reach child processes; logs and diagnostics must emit
+their keys only.
+
+## Inherited vLLM variables
+
+vLLM-Omni also reads variables through its aligned vLLM dependency. Refer to
+the [vLLM 0.26 environment-variable reference](https://docs.vllm.ai/en/v0.26.0/configuration/env_vars.html)
+for their definitions. This includes vLLM launch, cache, logging, plugin, ROCm,
+XPU, ModelScope, and FlashInfer workspace settings.
+
+An inherited name does not become Omni-owned because Omni reads or forwards it.
+Where behavior differs, the Omni-specific page should document only that
+difference. For example, device-visibility values can be further narrowed by a
+stage's `devices` setting.
+
+## Platform, external, and secret variables
+
+Hardware runtimes, distributed launchers, and third-party libraries retain
+ownership of their variables. Common groups include:
+
+- device visibility (`ASCEND_RT_VISIBLE_DEVICES`, `HIP_VISIBLE_DEVICES`, and
+  `MUSA_VISIBLE_DEVICES`);
+- distributed launch (`MASTER_ADDR`, `MASTER_PORT`, `RANK`, and `WORLD_SIZE`);
+- Hugging Face cache and authentication (`HF_HOME`, `HF_TOKEN`, and related
+  names);
+- accelerator libraries such as NCCL, FlashInfer, MindIE, MORI, and quack.
+
+Consult the owning project's documentation for accepted values and support.
+`HF_TOKEN`, `HUGGINGFACE_HUB_TOKEN`, and `OPENAI_API_KEY` are explicitly marked
+for redaction in the reviewed inventory. Never print their values in environment
+collection, examples, bug reports, or logs.
+
+## Model-specific variables
+
+The audit found 56 variables read by a single model or pipeline family. They are
+not listed as public usage options here because doing so would turn implementation
+escape hatches into an accidental compatibility contract.
+
+Every audited model-specific name has a migration disposition in the
+[environment-variable inventory](gh-file:vllm_omni/config/environment_variable_inventory.py):
+
+| Disposition | Count | Required outcome |
+| --- | ---: | --- |
+| Promote | 33 | Move a stable setting into typed stage or model configuration. |
+| Request scope | 6 | Move request-varying behavior into a declared request-option schema. |
+| External | 0 | Retain only when a supported third-party library owns the contract. |
+| Internalize | 11 | Keep a debug or diagnostic switch out of public documentation and configuration. |
+| Deprecate/remove | 6 | Remove a compatibility escape hatch that has no continuing contract. |
+
+The disposition is a migration target, not a statement that the existing
+environment switch is stable. Promote or request-scope work should land in
+model-owner-reviewed follow-up changes with validation and model-page updates.
+The family-sized migration packages and their ownership gate are tracked in
+[#6232](https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm-omni/issues/6232).
+
+## Environment collection and troubleshooting
+
+Run the repository collector when preparing a bug report:
+
+```bash
+python collect_env.py
+```
+
+The environment section includes the safe public Omni allowlist, registered
+vLLM variables, and selected platform prefixes. It omits names marked for
+redaction and names containing common secret terms. Review the output before
+sharing it. A key supplied through stage `env` is not collected merely because
+it appears in deploy configuration; the same allowlist and prefix rules apply.
+
+If a setting appears ineffective, first check its read time in the tables
+above. Restart processes after changing import- or startup-time values, verify
+that the variable reaches the intended worker, and check whether an explicit
+typed configuration field takes precedence.
+
+## Benchmark and internal variables
+
+The reviewed inventory marks 20 benchmark variables as transitional while
+benchmark configuration moves to CLI/request schemas in
+[issue #5376](https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm-omni/issues/5376). They are not
+part of the serving/runtime contract.
+
+Internal process-coordination and debug variables are deliberately excluded
+from this page. The CI scanner resolves string literals and module-level string
+constants used by direct `os` access, local wrapper helpers, aliased `os`
+imports, and environment membership checks. Server-storage names generated by
+Pydantic settings are checked separately against their model fields.
+
+Names assembled from cross-module metadata and arbitrary keys supplied through
+stage `env` cannot be inferred reliably. Contributors must classify those names
+explicitly. CI fails when a statically resolved name has no classification or
+when a reviewed public name is absent from this page.

 ### Stage fields

 Each entry under `stages:` accepts any `StageDeployConfig` field directly (no nested `engine_args:`). Only fields whose value legitimately varies across stages live here; pipeline-wide settings (trust_remote_code, distributed_executor_backend, dtype, quantization, prefix/chunked prefill, DP/PP sizes) are declared at the top level and applied to every stage. Unknown keys fall through to `engine_extras:` and are forwarded to the engine. Frequently used fields are listed below; the source-of-truth schema is `StageDeployConfig` in `vllm_omni/config/stage_config.py`.

+### Component allocator-cache retention
+
+MiniMax-H3 DLO keeps one bounded PyTorch allocator cache across its staged
+encoder, DiT, and VAE component boundaries so allocations released by one
+component can be reused by the next. The DiT prefetch path and its two shared
+device buffers are unchanged.
+
+After a component is offloaded, cached-but-unallocated memory is retained only
+while it is at most 25% of device capacity and at least 5% of device capacity
+remains physically free. Crossing either bound releases the allocator cache.
+Missing allocator telemetry also releases it conservatively. Component or
+staging failure forces a release, and an out-of-memory allocation gets one
+retry after release. This is a component-local policy rather than a global
+`empty_cache` override, so the executor's unconditional shutdown cleanup is
+preserved.
+
+Retaining allocator blocks trades higher reserved and peak device memory for
+lower lifecycle latency. The benefit is device- and workload-dependent, and a
+smaller or externally loaded device may cross a bound and return to the
+ordinary per-component cache-release behavior. Current performance validation
+covers MiniMax-H3 no-AllGather DLO on CUDA. Other MiniMax-H3 DLO transfer
+topologies and platforms receive the same bounded policy but are not claimed
+performance targets; other DLO models remain unchanged unless they explicitly
+adopt it.

+### Final-layout Host Weight Runtime consumer
+
+> **Status:** PR2 landed in
+> [PR #6486](https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm-omni/pull/6486). PR3 adds
+> registered direct H2D plus generic HWR publication/source-digest
+> optimizations without changing AllGather behavior.
+
+Final-layout Host Weight Runtime (HWR) backing is opt-in and currently applies
+only to no-AllGather DLO. Enable it with
+`--host-weight-runtime-mode preferred` (or `required`) and
+`--host-weight-runtime-root <node-local-root>`.
+
+The modes express operator fallback policy, not different artifact formats:
+
+- `preferred` consumes an exact hit, but on a miss it allows canonical loading
+  followed by post-load publication. It is the normal population path.
+- `required` consumes the same exact artifact but fails startup on a miss or
+  unusable artifact. It never invokes canonical DiT fallback or post-load
+  publication and therefore cannot populate an empty store.
+
+PR2 has no separate prewarm command. Operators populate one matching producer
+cohort per node-local storage domain in `preferred` mode, then restart the same
+model revision and parallel layout with `required`. TP coordinates have distinct
+identities, while equivalent DP replicas share them.
+
+The current producer/consumer boundary is the model-declared final-layout BF16
+contract (MiniMax H3 and `black-forest-labs/FLUX.2-klein-4B`). The FLUX.2-klein
+contract covers both transformer block stacks, constructor-stable packed QKV
+mapping state, BF16 parameters, and any persistent loader-owned `beta`/`eps`
+buffers. The shared HWR machinery supports ordinary-loader final layouts for
+TP1 and TP2 rank identities plus SP layout identities. FLUX.2-klein evidence
+in this change is TP1-only; its TP2/SP layouts rely on the existing
+per-coordinate identity mechanics and remain unmeasured. Online quantization,
+HSDP, LoRA/adapted weights, and non-default load formats remain ineligible.
+HWR mode
+`disabled`, DLO-disabled, and DLO AllGather configurations stop before source
+identity or store construction and retain the existing checkpoint-mmap or
+ordinary-loader path.
+
+Eligibility is decided before constructing HWR, resolving canonical sources,
+hashing identity inputs, probing a filesystem, or emitting an HWR observer
+event:
+
+```text
+DLO disabled / HWR disabled / DLO AllGather
+  -> zero final-layout HWR interaction
+  -> preserve current checkpoint-mmap or ordinary-loader behavior
+```
+
+When final-layout HWR is explicitly enabled for no-AllGather DLO, runtime
+outcomes are authoritative:
+
+- `LOCAL_HIT`: plan and commit an exact restoration, then transfer the lease
+  transactionally to DLO.
+- `CANONICAL_FALLBACK`: bypass checkpoint mmap, canonically materialize and
+  finalize the DiT, then call `publish_after_load()` for a future startup. The
+  current startup retains its canonical tensors.
+- `FAILED`: fail startup. Preferred mode does not reinterpret nonretryable
+  identity, configuration, or compatibility failures as misses.
+- Required mode cannot bootstrap an empty store through a `POST_LOAD_ONLY`
+  producer.
+
+Checkpoint mmap remains an unchanged control path whenever final-layout HWR is
+not selected.
+
+Local source identity and publication avoid repeated full-payload passes while
+preserving the same semantic contract:
+
+- Canonical files without a trusted immutable Hub blob identity are hashed in
+  parallel. Their content IDs are cached per storage domain under the HWR root
+  and reused only when the path, inode, size, timestamps, symlink target, and
+  cache-record checksum still match. Corrupt entries are rebuilt; cache-lock or
+  cache-I/O failure falls back to hashing the canonical file directly.
+- Producers that emit payload bytes in canonical storage-key order may declare
+  `ordered=True`. The filesystem writer then computes file and tensor SHA256
+  values during the write and overlaps payload `fsync` with later producer
+  work. Producers without that guarantee retain unordered writes and use a
+  parallel readback checksum fallback.
+- Manifest and `READY` publication still wait for every payload `fsync` and
+  checksum to complete. These optimizations do not weaken artifact validation
+  or change lease ownership.
+
+#### Registered mmap transport
+
+After DLO takes an HWR lease, the no-AllGather backend may register the lease's
+complete immutable mapped ranges under the existing `pin_cpu_memory` policy.
+Registration is transport state: it does not change artifact identity, the
+store, tensor ownership, or H2D payload. On success, each tensor view copies
+directly into the existing rotating HBM block buffers and the two private host
+staging slots are not allocated.
+
+`--dlo-host-registration-limit-gib` is an optional per-worker preflight ceiling
+over page-aligned registered bytes. Zero adds no ceiling. A disabled pinned
+memory policy, unsupported platform/capability, over-budget mapping, or fully
+rolled-back registration error selects the existing two-slot staging path. A
+partial registration that cannot be rolled back aborts startup because closing
+the lease would unmap memory still owned by the platform.
+
+Direct checkpoint mmap remains unchanged and continues to use staging. It may
+require loader-owned per-block transforms, while the HWR artifact already
+contains final runtime bytes. DLO AllGather never receives an HWR final-layout
+lease and therefore never enters this registration path.
+
+#### Pre-service transaction boundary
+
+The startup transaction does not end at restore commit. A lease-backed model is
+disposable until backend setup and initial prefetch complete:
+
+```text
+UNRESOLVED
+  -> LEASE_OWNED_BY_LOADER
+  -> RESTORE_PLANNED
+  -> COMMIT_STARTED
+  -> CARRIER_OWNED
+  -> BACKEND_OWNED
+  -> BACKEND_READY
+  -> IN_SERVICE
+```
+
+Failure before `COMMIT_STARTED` closes the loader-owned lease. Preferred mode
+may canonically load using the untouched skeleton; required mode fails.
+
+Failure from `COMMIT_STARTED` through `BACKEND_READY` must:
+
+1. synchronize or otherwise quiesce partial backend and initial-prefetch work;
+2. release hook, staging, restore-plan, and model references;
+3. close the lease through its current owner;
+4. discard the restored model; and
+5. in preferred mode, construct a fresh canonical model while bypassing HWR
+   lookup, HWR publication, and checkpoint mmap for that recovery attempt.
+
+Required mode fails instead of constructing the fresh fallback. Once the model
+enters service, failures follow normal runtime handling rather than startup
+fallback.
+
+#### Finalization phases
+
+Cold canonical loading separates byte-changing work from shared runtime-state
+finalization:
+
+```text
+Cold-only byte-changing:
+  casting, reordering, packing, quantization, generated scales,
+  model-specific weight transforms, and calibration that mutates
+  parameters or persistent buffers
+
+Shared cold/warm non-byte:
+  validation, hook installation, eval state, bookkeeping,
+  and non-persistent runtime state
+```
+
+The warm path must snapshot restored tensor bytes and backing pointers before
+shared finalization and prove both are unchanged afterward.
+
+#### Lease ownership
+
+Lease transfer is single-owner and single-take:
+
+```text
+loader owns
+  -> restore plan borrows
+  -> commit succeeds
+  -> runner carrier takes once
+  -> backend takes once before asynchronous work
+  -> backend drains pending H2D work
+  -> backend releases hooks, staging, and model references
+  -> backend unregisters every mapped range
+  -> backend closes lease
+```
+
+The runner carrier is process-local, rejects serialization, and rejects a
+duplicate `take()`. If the carrier still owns the lease, runner cleanup closes
+it. Once the backend takes ownership, only backend abort or teardown may drain
+work and close it.
+
+The implementation keeps the final-layout lease through backend setup and
+initial prefetch. Successful registration copies directly from immutable HWR
+views; otherwise the backend uses the existing two bounded rank-local staging
+slots. Transactional cleanup drains device work, removes source references,
+unregisters mappings, and only then closes the lease. An unregistration failure
+retains both registration and lease for retry/process teardown. Preferred mode
+then uses the runner's fresh canonical retry; required mode propagates the
+failure.
+
+#### PR2 and PR3 promotion gates
+
+- Warm hit performs zero ordinary DiT materialization and zero producer calls.
+- Shared warm finalization changes neither restored bytes nor backing pointers.
+- Preferred `FAILED` outcomes do not silently fall back.
+- Planning failure leaves the skeleton untouched.
+- Any pre-service failure after commit begins discards the restored model;
+  preferred mode uses a fresh canonical model and required mode fails.
+- Mixed components load normally and no required tensor remains on `meta`.
+- Disabled mode and AllGather emit zero final-layout HWR interaction.
+- The lease carrier rejects duplicate take and serialization.
+- Backend setup or prefetch failure drains asynchronous work before lease close.
+- Registration is all-or-nothing; rollback/unregistration failure never closes
+  a mapping still owned by the platform.
+- Registered HWR transport bypasses host staging while preserving output and
+  H2D payload; unsupported registration retains the bounded staging path.
+- Compatible checkpoint mmap remains an unchanged benchmark and control path.
+- Prewarm uses one matching producer cohort per TP/SP topology and storage
+  domain.
+- Benchmarks compare ordinary loading, cold publication, and warm staging with
+  output parity, startup latency, aggregate PSS, page-cache state, HBM, and H2D
+  payload.

+There are five independent paths for metric collection.

-**Path 1: Pipeline-level metrics (`vllm:omni_*`)**
+**Path 1: Pipeline-level metrics (`vllm_omni:*`)**

 `OmniPrometheusMetrics` registers the Gauge / Counter / Histogram collectors at import time. It is instantiated once per entrypoint, labeled with the model name. The entrypoint calls its methods as requests progress:

 - `set_running(n)` / `set_waiting(n)` — updated after each request completes. The running count comes from `OmniRequestCounter`, a simple counter incremented/decremented by the Orchestrator as it tracks requests. Waiting is derived as `total - running`.
- `request_succeeded(e2e_seconds, finished_reason="stop")` — recorded when a request finishes at the final stage. `finished_reason` is extracted from `engine_outputs.outputs[0].finish_reason` (vLLM `CompletionOutput` convention) and increments `vllm:omni_requests_success_total{finished_reason}`.
- `request_failed()` — recorded by the cleanup path when a request exits without natural completion. Internally maps to `finished_reason="abort"` so a single Counter family covers both natural and aborted completion.
+- `request_succeeded(e2e_seconds, finished_reason="stop")` — recorded when a request finishes at the final stage. `finished_reason` is extracted from `engine_outputs.outputs[0].finish_reason` (vLLM `CompletionOutput` convention) and increments `vllm_omni:requests_success_total{finished_reason}`.
+- `request_failed()` — recorded by the cleanup path when a request exits without natural completion. Internally maps to `finished_reason="abort"` on the existing completion Counter.
+- `inc_requests_failed(reason)` — increments the dedicated failure-attribution Counter once per request. Reasons are normalized to the bounded set `client_abort`, `client_disconnect`, `stage_error`, and `unknown`.

-**Path 2: Audio modality metrics (`vllm:omni_audio_*`)**
+**Path 2: Image and diffusion metrics**
+
+Image and diffusion metrics use two cooperating collectors. `OmniPrometheusMetrics` owns pipeline/stage workload families, while `OmniModalityMetrics` owns per-replica diffusion breakdowns. Finished stage messages are consumed once in `OmniBase._process_single_result`, which prevents replayed terminal messages from incrementing Counters or Histograms twice.
+
+- `stage_gen_time_s`, `stage_in_queue_s`, image workload, inference-step, and per-stage peak-memory values are emitted from `StageRequestStats` when a stage finishes. `image_pixels` and `image_count_total` are restricted to image outputs; `num_inference_steps` is restricted to diffusion stages.
+- Diffusion engine timings are accumulated per request by `OrchestratorAggregator.accumulate_diffusion_metrics`. Engine-side millisecond values are converted to seconds before `observe_modality_at_finalize(...)` dispatches the per-replica Histogram observations.
+- `request_queue_wait_s` is emitted once at final request completion from `pipeline_timings["queue_wait_ms"]`. A present value of `0` is a valid observation; a missing key produces no sample.
+- `stage_waiting_requests` is the sum of the latest scheduler snapshots for all live replicas in a stage. AR snapshots arrive through `SchedulerStats`; diffusion snapshots ride normal diffusion output metrics. A dead replica's snapshot is removed. Because this deliberately reuses existing message paths, the gauge can retain its last value while a replica produces no output.
+- `kv_wait_s` measures the AR scheduler interval from entering the KV-transfer-free wait state until extraction acknowledgement. The sample is carried to the Orchestrator through the existing engine output and labeled by connector type. Abort/error/removal paths discard incomplete timers rather than emitting partial waits.
+
+Zero and missing values have different meanings. Valid zero-duration queue observations are recorded, while unavailable optional measurements are omitted instead of being exported as synthetic zeroes. `peak_memory_mb`, `diffusion_forward_s`, `diffusion_kv_load_s`, `vae_decode_s`, and `kv_wait_s` therefore appear only when their data source is active.

The per-label child series for `vllm_omni:*` stay materialized but never have data written to them.
 - `OmniPrometheusStatLogger` is not constructed in `_init_metrics_state`, so the ~65 upstream `vllm:*` wrap families are not registered in the default registry at all.
 - The engine core's `Scheduler.make_stats()` also short-circuits inside upstream (`if not self.log_stats: return None`), so no `SchedulerStats` is produced per step — the per-iteration cost is bounded by the existing upstream gate.

+## Orchestration Loop (experimental)
+
+Multi-stage omni deployments route stage outputs through a single orchestrator
+loop. By default that loop polls every stage replica on a 1 ms cadence. An
+opt-in event-driven mode replaces the poll with one reader task per live stage
+replica awaiting its client directly, and switches the serving-side
+final-output drain to a condition-variable wakeup at the same time.
+
+**Configuration (environment variables):**
+
+| Variable | Default | Description |
+|----------|---------|-------------|
+| `VLLM_OMNI_EVENT_DRIVEN_ORCH` | `0` (off) | Switches the orchestration loop and the final-output drain from the legacy 1 ms poll to event-driven wakeups. Enabled by `1`, `true`, `yes`, or `on`, matched case-insensitively after surrounding whitespace is stripped; any other value leaves it off. |
+
+Set it on the process that runs the orchestrator (stage 0 of an omni
+deployment) before starting the server:
+
+```bash
+export VLLM_OMNI_EVENT_DRIVEN_ORCH=1
+vllm serve Qwen/Qwen3-TTS-12Hz-1.7B-Base \
+    --omni \
+    --port 8091
+```
+
+The server logs the selected loop mode and its reader/poller counts once at
+startup, so you can confirm which loop is live.
+
+Routing, output ordering, and terminal-state behavior are identical on both
+loops; only the poll cadence changes. Leaving the variable unset keeps the
+legacy poll loop, which is the supported default.
+
+**Known limitations:**
+
+- The measured serving A/B (idle CPU 2.43% to 0.07%; TTFP p99 -32% at
+  concurrency 8) predates the rebuild on the per-replica fault-isolation work
+  in [#4285](https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm-omni/pull/4285). That work
+  changed dead-replica handling and reader/poller lifecycle rather than the
+  steady-state output path, and the parity suite covers it, but the serving
+  A/B has not been re-run on the current head.
+- The diffusion-poller branch is covered by unit tests only. Deployments whose
+  stages all run as standard engine cores never exercise it, including GLM-TTS,
+  which deploys its DiT without `stage_type: diffusion`.
+- Concurrency 1 and 32 measured at parity with the legacy loop. At 32 the

+# FastVideo VSA
+
+FastVideo Variable Sparse Attention (VSA) accelerates the `FastVideo/FastWan2.2-TI2V-5B-Diffusers` model's
+self-attention by partitioning the post-patch latent grid into spatiotemporal
+blocks. For every query block, VSA scores the key/value blocks and computes
+attention only against the selected top-k blocks.
+
+The supported checkpoint provides both text-to-video and image-to-video modes through `Wan22Pipeline`; the separate Wan I2V-14B, S2V, and VACE pipelines are outside this backend's supported scope.
+
+VSA is a CUDA-only, explicitly selected backend. It requires the
+`fastvideo-kernel` package and currently supports non-causal self-attention
+with equal query and key/value sequence lengths. Unsupported shapes, masks,
+dtypes, sequence-parallel execution, or kernel failures fall back to
+`TORCH_SDPA` and emit a warning with the reason.
+
+## Enable the backend
+
+For online serving, select the backend with the existing attention backend
+flag. Use `--fastvideo-vsa-topk` to set the number of key/value blocks retained
+for every query block:
+
+```bash
+vllm-omni serve <model> \
+  --diffusion-attention-backend FASTVIDEO_VSA \
+  --fastvideo-vsa-topk 64
+```
+
+The backwards-compatible environment variable selects the backend with the
+default `topk=64`:
+
+```bash
+export DIFFUSION_ATTENTION_BACKEND=FASTVIDEO_VSA
+vllm-omni serve <model>
+```
+
+To tune top-k, pass the CLI backend and top-k flags together as shown above,
+or use the equivalent structured configuration:
+
+```bash
+vllm-omni serve <model> \
+  --diffusion-attention-config \
+  '{"default":{"backend":"FASTVIDEO_VSA","fastvideo_vsa_topk":64}}'
+```
+
+Do not combine `--diffusion-attention-backend` with an explicit
+`diffusion_attention_config.default.backend`. The top-k value must be positive
+and is valid only when the default backend is `FASTVIDEO_VSA`.
+
+For a deploy YAML stage, use either the shorthand fields:
+
+```yaml
+stages:
+  - stage_id: 0
+    diffusion_attention_backend: FASTVIDEO_VSA
+    fastvideo_vsa_topk: 64
+```
+
+or the structured configuration:
+
+```yaml
+stages:
+  - stage_id: 0
+    diffusion_attention_config:
+      default:
+        backend: FASTVIDEO_VSA
+        fastvideo_vsa_topk: 64
+```
+
+## Choose top-k
+
+At runtime the backend logs the sequence shape and derived block count:
+
+```text
+FASTVIDEO_VSA routing: seq_len=27280, dit_seq_shape=(31, 22, 40),
+block_size=(4, 8, 8), num_blocks=120, topk=64, keep_ratio=53.3%,
+checkpoint_mode=native, route=VSA
+```
+
+Use `num_blocks` as the upper bound when tuning top-k. Top-k is the number of
+key/value blocks retained for each query block, not the number of tokens or
+the total number of blocks processed by the layer.
+
+- A smaller top-k increases sparsity and may reduce attention computation, but
+  it can remove relevant blocks and reduce visual quality or temporal
+  consistency. Routing and padding overhead can also make a smaller value
+  slower for some shapes.
+- A larger top-k retains more context and generally approaches dense-attention
+  quality, but reduces the potential speedup and increases memory traffic.
+- `topk > num_blocks` is invalid for the runtime shape and falls back to SDPA.
+- For a native checkpoint, `topk == num_blocks` routes to SDPA because scoring
+  every block provides no sparsity benefit.
+- For a FastVideo DMD checkpoint, `topk == num_blocks` stays on the VSA
+  all-block path so the checkpoint keeps its trained compensation semantics.
+
+There is no universally optimal value. Resolution, frame count, GPU, kernel
+version, and checkpoint all affect both quality and latency. Start from the
+logged `num_blocks`, test several keep ratios on the target workload, and
+compare output quality against the same checkpoint running dense attention.
+
+## Checkpoint behavior
+
+The backend does not expose a user-selectable gate mode. Wan checkpoints that
+contain learned `to_gate_compress` weights use that projection automatically.
+When those weights are absent, the unused projection is removed and VSA uses
+the sparse branch without learned compensation.
+
+FastVideo DMD checkpoints use their fixed distilled timestep schedule. Native
+Wan checkpoints keep their normal scheduler and inference-step configuration;
+selecting VSA does not turn a native checkpoint into a distilled model.
+
+## Verify routing and fallback
+
+Check the startup and first-forward logs instead of assuming that selecting
+the backend guarantees sparse execution:
+
+- `route=VSA` means top-k block selection is active.
+- `route=VSA_ALL_BLOCKS` means the FastVideo DMD checkpoint retained all
+  blocks through the VSA kernel.
+- `route=SDPA` or `FASTVIDEO_VSA falling back to SDPA: ...` means dense SDPA
+  executed; the warning includes the reason.
+
+The current kernel requires CUDA tensors in FP16 or BF16, 256-token blocks,
+standard `head_size**-0.5` scaling, equal Q/K/V head counts, no attention mask,
+and no active sequence-parallel context. NPU and XPU paths do not execute the
+FastVideo VSA CUDA kernel.

+### Final-layout Host Weight Runtime
+
+HWR is an opt-in startup optimization for models that declare the final-layout
+BF16 restore contract. Use it only with no-AllGather DLO:
+
+The validated BF16 model contracts currently cover MiniMax H3 and
+`black-forest-labs/FLUX.2-klein-4B`. FLUX.2-klein-9B shares the same model
+class but has not been validated against this contract. FLUX.2-dev, online
+FP8, HSDP, LoRA/adapted weights, and non-default load formats remain outside
+the validated scope.
+
+```bash
+vllm serve /path/to/model --omni \
+  --enable-distributed-layerwise-offload \
+  --dlo-no-use-allgather \
+  --host-weight-runtime-mode preferred \
+  --host-weight-runtime-root /var/cache/vllm-omni/hwr
+```
+
+#### Choosing a mode
+
+| Mode | Exact local artifact hit | Miss or recoverable artifact/store problem | Intended use |
+| --- | --- | --- | --- |
+| `disabled` | HWR is not consulted | Use the existing checkpoint-mmap or ordinary-loader path | Default compatibility path |
+| `preferred` | Restore the final-layout artifact | Load canonically, serve with those tensors, and attempt to publish an artifact for the next startup | Normal deployment and store population |
+| `required` | Restore the final-layout artifact | Fail startup without canonical DiT fallback or publication | Enforce a pre-populated store in controlled rollouts or CI |
+
+Both enabled modes still fail on non-retryable configuration, identity, or
+compatibility errors. `preferred` is a fallback policy for a cache miss or a
+recoverable cache problem; it does not hide an invalid deployment.
+
+#### Populating a store for `required` mode
+
+`required` is deliberately consume-only. PR2 does not include a separate
+prewarm command, so populate each node-local storage domain with one matching
+`preferred` producer cohort:
+
+1. Choose a persistent, writable root visible to every diffusion worker in the
+   storage domain. Do not use a process-private temporary directory.
+2. Start the deployment with `preferred`, using the exact model revision,
+   dtype, TP size, SP configuration, and other weight-layout settings intended
+   for serving. No inference request is needed; publication happens during
+   model startup. Wait for the engine to become healthy, then shut it down
+   cleanly.
+3. Restart with the same arguments and root, changing only the mode to
+   `required`. A successful startup proves that every worker acquired a valid
+   artifact; a miss, corrupt artifact, or incompatible identity fails startup.
+4. Repeat the population start on every node or storage domain because this
+   store is node-local.
+
+For example:
+
+```bash
+# First startup: canonically load and populate the exact artifacts.
+vllm serve /path/to/model --omni \
+  --enable-distributed-layerwise-offload \
+  --dlo-no-use-allgather \
+  --host-weight-runtime-mode preferred \
+  --host-weight-runtime-root /var/cache/vllm-omni/hwr
+
+# After a healthy startup and clean shutdown, enforce cache hits.
+vllm serve /path/to/model --omni \
+  --enable-distributed-layerwise-offload \
+  --dlo-no-use-allgather \
+  --host-weight-runtime-mode required \
+  --host-weight-runtime-root /var/cache/vllm-omni/hwr
+```
+
+Include the same TP and SP layout flags in both commands. DP rank and DP size
+are excluded from artifact identity, so the population and serving DP sizes may
+differ and equivalent DP replicas share artifacts. TP rank is included, so a
+TP-N deployment normally needs N rank-specific artifacts in each storage
+domain; launching the matching TP cohort creates that set. If the model
+revision or layout changes, run `preferred` again for the new identity before
+returning to `required`.
+
+On a cold start, the canonical loader remains authoritative and publishes a
+validated final-layout artifact for later workers. A warm start restores the
+DiT final tensors without ordinary DiT materialization. DLO then attempts to
+register the immutable mapping for direct H2D; if registration is unavailable,
+it streams through the same two bounded host staging slots. The artifact
+identity includes the TP rank/size and SP layout, so TP1, TP2 rank-local shards,
+and distinct SP layouts do not alias one another. Publication failure remains
+separate from a `preferred` serving startup; the next `required` startup
+provides the explicit artifact-availability check.
+
+For local canonical checkpoints, the first eligible worker may hash source
+shards to establish immutable identity. HWR caches those digests in the same
+node-local storage domain and validates file metadata before reuse, so later
+workers normally avoid repeating that read. Cold BF16 publication also hashes
+ordered payloads as they are written and overlaps payload durability work with
+later shards; this changes startup work only, not artifact contents or runtime
+H2D behavior.
+
+#### Registered direct H2D
+
+Registration is attempted automatically only for an eligible warm HWR hit when
+`pin_cpu_memory` is enabled. A successful path is:
+
+```text
+shared read-only HWR mmap -> existing rotating HBM block buffer -> GPU kernel
+```
+
+It removes the recurrent mmap-to-private-staging CPU copy and does not allocate
+the two host staging slots. It does not reduce the H2D payload or make GPU
+kernels access host memory directly.
+
+CUDA requires read-only host-registration capability for the immutable HWR
+mapping. Unsupported capability, a positive registration limit smaller than
+the complete page-aligned mapping, or a safely rolled-back registration error
+falls back to bounded staging. Programmatic configurations can set
+`pin_cpu_memory=False` to disable registration explicitly. A successful
+registration locks the complete mapped range in host memory for that worker's
+lifetime, so use
+`--dlo-host-registration-limit-gib` when an operator-enforced ceiling is
+required.
+
+Shutdown drains H2D work, releases hook/source references, unregisters every
+range, and only then closes the HWR lease. AllGather and direct checkpoint mmap
+retain their existing transfer paths.
+
+When HWR is disabled, DLO is disabled, or AllGather is enabled, the loader does
+not resolve HWR sources or construct its store.

+
+SANA checkpoints identify their upstream T2V pipeline in `model_index.json`.
+Select the native I2V implementation explicitly:
+
+```bash
+python image_to_video.py \
+  --model Efficient-Large-Model/SANA-Video_2B_480p_diffusers \
+  --model-class-name SanaImageToVideoPipeline \

+  --extra-body '{"motion_score": 30}' \
+  --fps 16 \
+  --seed 42 \
+  --output sana_video_i2v_480p.mp4
+```
+
+For the 720p checkpoint, use
+`Efficient-Large-Model/SANA-Video_2B_720p_diffusers` with
+`--height 704 --width 1280`. The native I2V path supports both checkpoint
+variants: the 480p checkpoint uses the Wan VAE, while the 720p checkpoint uses
+the LTX-2 Video VAE.
+
+For SANA-Video, 81 frames at 16 FPS is the standard checkpoint request
+(approximately five seconds), not minute-scale long-video generation.
+Minute-scale SANA generation requires the separate LongSANA/LongLive
+autoregressive workflow, which this pipeline does not implement.
+
+See the [SANA-Video recipe](../../../../recipes/NVIDIA/SANA-Video-2B.md) for
+online serving, backend boundaries, and the tested hardware profile.
+
 Key arguments:

+- `--model`: Model ID or local path (for example Wan I2V/TI2V, LTX-2, or
+  SANA-Video).
+- `--model-class-name`: Explicit pipeline override. SANA-Video I2V requires
+  `SanaImageToVideoPipeline`.
 - `--image`: Path to input image (required).
 - `--prompt`: Text description of desired motion/animation.
 - `--height/--width`: Output resolution (auto-calculated from image if not set).

-
-## Local CLI Usage
-### Download the Model locally
-Since DreamID-Omni combine multiple models, and without any config, so we need to download them locally.
-
-```bash
-python download_dreamid_omni.py --output-dir ./dreamid_omni
-```
-After download, the model directory will look like this:

-  --model /path/to/dreamid_omni \
-  --prompt "Two people walking together and singing happily" \
-  --image-path ./example0.png ./example1.png \

-  --num-inference-steps 45 \
-  --height 704 \
-  --width 1280 \
-  --output out_dreamid_omni_twoip.mp4
-```
-In the current test scenario (2 images + 2 audio inputs), the VRAM requirement is 72GB, regardless of whether cfg-parallel is enabled or disabled.
-The VRAM usage can be reduced by enabling CPU offload via --enable-cpu-offload.
-For multi-GPU memory reduction on the fused DreamID-Omni transformer, you can also enable HSDP:
-
-```python
-python x_to_video_audio.py \
-  --model /path/to/dreamid_omni \
-  --prompt "Two people walking together and singing happily" \
-  --image-path ./example0.png ./example1.png \
-  --audio-path ./example0.wav ./example1.wav \
-  --video-negative-prompt "jitter, bad hands, blur, distortion" \

-        "guidance_scale": 7.0,
-        "num_inference_steps": 100,
-    },
-    timeout=300.0,
-)
-
-with open("ocean.wav", "wb") as f:
-    f.write(response.content)
-```
-
-## Request Format
-
-### Simple Generation
-
-```json
-{
-    "input": "The sound of ocean waves"
-}
-```
-
-### Generation with Parameters
-
-```json
-{
-    "input": "A piano playing a gentle melody",
-    "audio_length": 10.0,
-    "negative_prompt": "Low quality, distorted, noisy",
-    "guidance_scale": 8.0,
-    "num_inference_steps": 150,
-    "seed": 42,
-    "response_format": "wav"
-}
-```
-
-## API Reference
-
-### Endpoint
-
-```
-POST /v1/audio/generate
-Content-Type: application/json
-```
-
-### Generation Parameters
-
-| Parameter | Type | Default | Description |
-|-----------|------|---------|-------------|
-| `input` | string | **required** | Text prompt describing the audio to generate |
-| `model` | string | server's model | Model to use (optional, should match server if specified) |
-| `response_format` | string | "wav" | Audio format: wav, mp3, flac, pcm, opus |
-| `speed` | float | 1.0 | Playback speed (0.25 - 4.0) |
-| `audio_length` | float | null | Audio duration in seconds (max ~47s for `stable-audio-open-1.0`) |
-| `audio_start` | float | 0.0 | Audio start time in seconds |
-| `negative_prompt` | string | null | Text describing what to avoid in generation |
-| `guidance_scale` | float | model default | Classifier-free guidance scale (higher = more adherence to prompt) |
-| `num_inference_steps` | int | model default | Number of denoising steps (higher = better quality, slower) |
-| `seed` | int | null | Random seed for reproducible generation |
-
-### Response Format
-
-Returns binary audio data with appropriate `Content-Type` header (e.g., `audio/wav`).
-
-## Tuning Tips
-
-1. **Audio Length**: Keep under 47 seconds for `stable-audio-open-1.0`.
-2. **Quality vs Speed**:
-   - 50 steps: Fast, decent quality (quick previews)
-   - 100 steps: Good balance (general purpose)
-   - 150+ steps: High quality, slower (final / critical audio)
-3. **Guidance Scale**:
-   - Lower (3 - 5): More creative / varied output
-   - Default (7): Good balance
-   - Higher (10+): Strict adherence to the prompt
-4. **Negative Prompts**: Use to avoid unwanted characteristics such as `"Low quality"`, `"distorted"`, `"noisy"`.
-5. **Seeds**: Set a fixed seed to get deterministic, reproducible results.
-
-## File Description
-
-| File | Description |
-|------|-------------|
-| `curl_examples.sh` | Curl examples covering common use cases |
-| `stable_audio_client.py` | Python client with full CLI argument support |
-
-## Troubleshooting
-
-1. **Audio generation model did not produce audio output**: Verify the server started successfully and the model loaded without errors.
-2. **Connection refused**: Make sure the server is running on the correct port.
-3. **Generation timeout**: Reduce `num_inference_steps` or `audio_length`, and check GPU memory with `nvidia-smi`.
-4. **Out of memory**: Lower `--gpu-memory-utilization` or reduce `audio_length`.
-5. **Audio quality issues**: Increase `num_inference_steps`, add a negative prompt, or raise `guidance_scale`.

+# SVDQuant W4A4
+
+## Overview
+
+[SVDQuant](https://arxiv.org/abs/2411.05007) combines four-bit weights
+and activations with a small low-rank branch that corrects part of the
+quantization error. vLLM-Omni consumes an offline-quantized checkpoint;
+it does not calibrate the model while loading.
+
+## Checkpoint contract
+
+Place the following entry in the diffusion transformer's `config.json`:
+
+```json
+{
+  "quantization_config": {
+    "quant_method": "svdquant",
+    "rank": 32,
+    "precision": "nvfp4",
+    "act_unsigned": false,
+    "modules_to_not_convert": []
+  }
+}
+```
+
+For a quantized linear with input size `K`, output size `N`, and correction
+rank `R`, the checkpoint stores:
+
+| Suffix | Shape | dtype |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| `qweight` | `(N, K / 2)` | `int8` (two packed FP4 values per byte) |
+| `wscales` | `(K / 16, N)` | `float8_e4m3fn` |
+| `proj_down` | `(K, R)` | `bfloat16` |
+| `proj_up` | `(N, R)` | `bfloat16` |
+| `smooth_factor` | `(K,)` | `bfloat16` |
+| `wcscales` | `(N,)` | `bfloat16` |
+| `wtscale` | `(1,)` | `bfloat16` |
+
+`K` must be divisible by 16 on every tensor-parallel rank. Set `wcscales` to
+ones when no per-output correction is needed. Modules listed in
+`modules_to_not_convert` keep their checkpoint precision.
+
+## Runtime support
+
+The compatibility path accepts BF16 inputs and executes an NVFP4 GEMM followed
+by the BF16 rank correction. It supports vLLM's FlashInfer, CUTLASS, and FBGEMM
+NVFP4 tensor layouts; incompatible forced backends fail during model loading.
+SM103 is the currently validated and enabled hardware target. Native fusion of
+the NVFP4 GEMM and rank correction is separate from this checkpoint-loading
+contract.

+### SANA-Video-2B
+
+The checkpoint metadata selects the upstream T2V pipeline, so pass
+`SanaImageToVideoPipeline` explicitly for I2V:
+
+```bash
+python image_to_video.py \
+  --model Efficient-Large-Model/SANA-Video_2B_480p_diffusers \

+```
+
+Use the 720p checkpoint with `--height 704 --width 1280`. In this example,
+81 frames at 16 FPS means the standard approximately five-second SANA-Video
+checkpoint request. It does not enable the separate LongSANA/LongLive
+minute-scale autoregressive workflow.
+
+The native `SanaImageToVideoPipeline` supports both checkpoint variants. The
+480p path uses vLLM-Omni's `DistributedAutoencoderKLWan` wrapper and the 720p
+path uses `DistributedAutoencoderKLLTX2Video`; both wrap their corresponding
+Diffusers VAE implementations. The native denoising loop intentionally keeps
+Diffusers' checkpoint-compatible `DPMSolverMultistepScheduler`.
+
+The Diffusers adapter has completed end-to-end I2V serving validation at both
+480p and 720p. For online adapter serving, select the matching checkpoint and
+use `WIDTH=1280 HEIGHT=704` for the 720p request. Adapter T2V is also validated
+at both resolutions; see the recipe for the exact backend matrix.

- `--video`: [AudioX `v2*`/`tv2*`] video file/URL for conditioning (→ `video_path`).
- `--audio-start`: audio start offset in seconds (→ `audio_start_in_s` for Stable Audio, `seconds_start` for AudioX).
- `--audio-length`: audio duration in seconds (audio length for Stable Audio, `seconds_total` for AudioX).
- `--extra-body`: JSON dict of model-specific knobs (declared in `vllm_omni/model_extras/`), merged into sampling `extra_args`. For AudioX, sampler/reference knobs go here, e.g. `'{"sigma_min": 0.03, "sigma_max": 1000.0, "cfg_rescale": 0.0, "audio_path": "ref.wav"}'`.

-Singing voice synthesis (SVS) and conversion (SVC) at 24 kHz. Script: `soulxsinger/end2end.py`. Deploy: `vllm_omni/deploy/soulxsinger_svs.yaml` or `soulxsinger_svc.yaml`.
-
-### Prerequisites
-
-Download DiT and preprocess weights, then set up separate SVS / SVC view directories. Copy `soulxsinger/utils/phoneme/phone_set.json` from upstream [SoulX-Singer](https://github.com/Soul-AILab/SoulX-Singer) into the model weights dir as `phoneme/phone_set.json` — HuggingFace does not ship it.
-
-```bash
-# 1. DiT weights
-export BASE=path/to/SoulX-Singer
-export PREPROCESS=path/to/SoulX-Singer-Preprocess
-export SVC_DIR=path/to/SoulX-Singer-svc
-
-huggingface-cli download Soul-AILab/SoulX-Singer --local-dir "$BASE"
-
-# 2. Preprocess weights (required)
-huggingface-cli download Soul-AILab/SoulX-Singer-Preprocess --local-dir "$PREPROCESS"
-export SOULX_PREPROCESS_WEIGHTS_DIR="$PREPROCESS"
-
-# 3. SVS / SVC view directories
-mkdir -p "$SVC_DIR"
-cp $BASE/{config.yaml,README.md,assets} $SVC_DIR
-mv $BASE/model-svc.pt $SVC_DIR/model-svc.pt
-
-cat > "$BASE/config.json" <<'EOF'
-{
-  "model_type": "soulxsinger",
-  "architectures": ["SoulXSingerPipeline"],
-  "max_num_seqs": 1
-}
-EOF
-
-cat > "$SVC_DIR/config.json" <<'EOF'
-{
-  "model_type": "soulxsinger",
-  "architectures": ["SoulXSingerSVCPipeline"],
-  "max_num_seqs": 1
-}
-EOF
-```
-
-`config.yaml` hyper-parameters live under `$BASE`; each view's `config.json` `architectures` field is the single source of truth for SVS vs SVC. Point `--model` at the matching directory (`$BASE` for SVS, `$SVC_DIR` for SVC). Deploy YAML is chosen automatically from `config.json`; optional `--svs` / `--svc` only assert the mode matches.
-
-**Online preprocess** is the default: pass `--prompt-audio` and `--target-audio`, and the worker runs vocal separation, F0, and (for SVS) lyrics/MIDI before DiT. Install only what your run needs:
-
-```bash
-pip install "BS-RoFormer"   # vocal sep + F0 on GPU — SVS and SVC
-```
-
-Mandarin SVS also needs FunASR and Chinese G2P; `ffmpeg` must be on `PATH`:
-
-```bash
-# install optional dependencies:
-pip install -e ".[soulx-svs]"
-```
-
-English SVS adds NeMo ASR and NLTK data; pass `--language English`:
-
-```bash
-pip install "nemo_toolkit[asr]==2.6.1" lhotse==1.32.2
-python -c "import nltk; nltk.download('cmudict'); nltk.download('averaged_perceptron_tagger_eng')"
-```
-
-**Precomputed metadata** is the alternative: pass both `--prompt-metadata-path` and `--target-metadata-path` and skip online ASR/ROSVOT — none of the packages above are required. JSON can be produced by integrated preprocess on a prior run, or by upstream [SoulX-Singer](https://github.com/Soul-AILab/SoulX-Singer) `preprocess/` scripts if you prefer to run that outside vLLM-Omni.

-`SOULX_PREPROCESS_WEIGHTS_DIR` makes `--preprocess-weights-dir` optional. Long SVS targets are handled in one request. See `end2end.py --help` for `--pitch-shift`, `--vocal-sep`, `--auto-shift`, and language/control options.
-
-### Notes
-
- Output: 24 kHz mono WAV; batch only.
- Defaults match upstream: `--guidance-scale 3.0`, `--seed 42`, `--auto-shift` on.
- SVS `--control`: `score` or `melody`. MIDI / lyric QC: upstream `midi_editor` only.

+
+For the 720p checkpoint, switch the model to
+`Efficient-Large-Model/SANA-Video_2B_720p_diffusers`, use
+`--height 704 --width 1280`, and write to a different output path. Both native
+checkpoint variants are supported. The Diffusers adapter T2V compatibility
+path is also validated at both resolutions through online serving.
+
+The native 480p path uses vLLM-Omni's `DistributedAutoencoderKLWan` wrapper;
+the native 720p path uses `DistributedAutoencoderKLLTX2Video`. Both wrappers
+retain their underlying Diffusers autoencoders. The pipeline intentionally

-  --num-inference-steps 45 \
-  --height 704 \
-  --width 1280 \
-  --output out_dreamid_omni_twoip.mp4
-```
-In the current test scenario (2 images + 2 audio inputs), the VRAM requirement is 72GB, regardless of whether cfg-parallel is enabled or disabled.
-The VRAM usage can be reduced by enabling CPU offload via --enable-cpu-offload.
-For multi-GPU memory reduction on the fused DreamID-Omni transformer, you can also enable HSDP:
-
-```python
-python x_to_video_audio.py \
-  --model /path/to/dreamid_omni \
-  --prompt "Two people walking together and singing happily" \
-  --image-path ./example0.png ./example1.png \
-  --audio-path ./example0.wav ./example1.wav \
-  --video-negative-prompt "jitter, bad hands, blur, distortion" \
-  --audio-negative-prompt "robotic, muffled, echo, distorted" \

-  --width 1280 \
-  --use-hsdp \
-  --hsdp-shard-size 2 \
-  --output out_dreamid_omni_twoip.mp4
-```
-
-
-You could take reference images/audios from the test cases in the official repo: https://github.com/Guoxu1233/DreamID-Omni
-
-For example, single IP ref resources can be found under https://github.com/Guoxu1233/DreamID-Omni/tree/main/test_case/oneip, you could download them correspondingly to your local and use them for testing.
-
-```python

-## MagiHuman (`--model-type magi-human`)
-
-MagiHuman is a text → video+audio model with a DiT MoE backbone and a ~9B-param
-T5Gemma text encoder. A detailed text prompt is the only required input; an optional
-image and/or audio file may be supplied for conditioning. Natively supports Tensor
-Parallelism. For an 80GB node, `--tensor-parallel-size 4` is recommended to shard
-the MoE weights and the text encoder.
-
-> Install [MagiCompiler](https://github.com/SandAI-org/MagiCompiler) for correct
-> attention-kernel behaviour (the pipeline otherwise falls back to stubs).
-
-Text-only generation:
-
-```bash
-python x_to_video_audio.py \
-  --model-type magi-human \
-  --model /path/to/daVinci-MagiHuman \
-  --prompt "A young woman with long, wavy golden blonde hair... <dialogue and background sound>" \
-  --tensor-parallel-size 4 \
-  --height 256 --width 448 \
-  --num-inference-steps 8 \
-  --seed 52 \
-  --extra-body '{"seconds": 5, "sr_height": 1080, "sr_width": 1920, "sr_num_inference_steps": 5}' \
-  --output output_magihuman.mp4
-```
-
-With optional image and audio conditioning:
-
-```bash
-python x_to_video_audio.py \
-  --model-type magi-human \
-  --model /path/to/daVinci-MagiHuman \
-  --prompt "A young woman..." \
-  --tensor-parallel-size 4 \
-  --height 256 --width 448 \
-  --num-inference-steps 8 \
-  --seed 52 \
-  --extra-body '{"image_path": "/path/to/ref.jpg", "audio_path": "/path/to/ref.wav", "sr_height": 1080, "sr_width": 1920, "sr_num_inference_steps": 5}' \
-  --output output_magihuman.mp4
-```
-
-MagiHuman-specific arguments are passed as a JSON dict via `--extra-body` (declared
-in `vllm_omni/model_extras/magi_human.py`, routed via `extra_args`):
-
- `seconds`: output duration in seconds (default 10; ignored when `audio_path` is set,
-  because the audio length then determines the number of frames).
- `audio_path`: path to an audio file for audio-to-video conditioning. When provided,
-  the audio drives the frame count and is encoded as a latent condition into the DiT
-  (`is_a2v` mode). Omit for pure text-to-video+audio generation.
- `image_path`: path to an image file for visual conditioning. Applied at both the
-  base-resolution (BR) and super-resolution (SR) stages when SR is enabled.
- `sr_height` / `sr_width`: super-resolution output resolution. SR stage is skipped
-  when these are omitted.
- `sr_num_inference_steps`: denoising steps for the SR stage.
-
-## DreamID-Omni arguments
-
-Key arguments:
- `--prompt`: text description (string).
- `--model`: path to the model local directory.
- `--height/--width`: output resolution (defaults 704 * 1024).
- `--image-path`: path to the input image list.
- `--audio-path`: path to the input audio list, indicate the timbre of the output video.
- `--cfg-parallel-size`: number of parallel cfg parallel (defaults 1).
- `--use-hsdp`: enable HSDP weight sharding for DreamID-Omni fused blocks.
- `--hsdp-shard-size`: number of GPUs used for HSDP sharding.
- `--hsdp-replicate-size`: number of HSDP replica groups.
- `--num-inference-steps`: number of denoising steps (defaults 45).
- `--video-negative-prompt`: negative prompt for video generation.
- `--audio-negative-prompt`: negative prompt for audio generation.
- `--enable-cpu-offload`: enable CPU offload (defaults False).
- `--cache-backend`: enable `cache_dit` for acceleration.
- `--quantization`: online (dynamic) quantization method — `fp8` or `int8`.
-  (VAEs, the T5 text encoder, norms and modulation stay bf16.)

-minimal Python client that covers all six tasks (`t2a`, `t2m`, `v2a`, `v2m`, `tv2a`, `tv2m`).
-
-## Start the server

-The client sends:
-
- `num_inference_steps`, `guidance_scale`, `seed`, `audiox_task`, `seconds_start`,
-  `seconds_total`, `sigma_min`, `sigma_max` as flattened keys under `extra_body`. The server
-  routes the declared knobs (see `vllm_omni/model_extras/audiox.py`) into the pipeline's

-# Stable Audio Online Serving
-
-Generate audio from text prompts using Stable Audio models via an OpenAI-compatible API endpoint.
-
-## Features
-
- **OpenAI-compatible API**: Use `/v1/audio/generate` endpoint
- **Flexible control**: Adjust audio length, guidance scale, inference steps
- **Quality control**: Use negative prompts to avoid unwanted characteristics
- **Reproducible**: Set random seed for deterministic generation
-
-## Quick Start
-
-### 1. Start the Server
-
-```bash
-vllm-omni serve stabilityai/stable-audio-open-1.0 \
-    --host 0.0.0.0 \
-    --port 8091 \
-    --gpu-memory-utilization 0.9 \
-    --trust-remote-code \
-    --enforce-eager \
-    --omni
-```
-
-### 2. Generate Audio
-
-#### Using curl
-
-```bash
-curl -X POST http://localhost:8091/v1/audio/generate \
-    -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-    -d '{
-        "input": "The sound of a cat purring",
-        "audio_length": 10.0
-    }' --output cat.wav
-```
-
-#### Using Python Client
-
-```bash
-python stable_audio_client.py \
-    --text "The sound of a cat purring" \
-    --audio_length 10.0 \
-    --output cat.wav
-```
-
-#### Using Bash Script
-
-```bash
-bash curl_examples.sh
-```
-
-## API Reference
-
-### Endpoint
-
-```
-POST /v1/audio/generate
-```
-
-### Request Body
-
-```json
-{
-    "input": "Text description of the audio",
-    "audio_length": 10.0,
-    "audio_start": 0.0,
-    "negative_prompt": "Low quality",
-    "guidance_scale": 7.0,
-    "num_inference_steps": 100,
-    "seed": 42,
-    "response_format": "wav"
-}
-```
-
-### Parameters
-
-| Parameter | Type | Default | Description |
-|-----------|------|---------|-------------|
-| `input` | string | **required** | Text prompt describing the audio to generate |
-| `audio_length` | float | ~47s | Audio duration in seconds (max ~47s for stable-audio-open-1.0) |
-| `audio_start` | float | 0.0 | Audio start time in seconds |
-| `negative_prompt` | string | null | Text describing what to avoid in generation |
-| `guidance_scale` | float | 7.0 | Classifier-free guidance scale (higher = more adherence to prompt) |
-| `num_inference_steps` | int | 50 | Number of denoising steps (higher = better quality, slower) |
-| `seed` | int | null | Random seed for reproducibility |
-| `response_format` | string | "wav" | Output format: wav, mp3, flac, pcm |
-
-### Response
-
-Returns audio data in the requested format (default: WAV).
-
-## Usage Examples
-
-### Basic Generation
-
-```bash
-curl -X POST http://localhost:8091/v1/audio/generate \
-    -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-    -d '{
-        "input": "The sound of ocean waves"
-    }' --output ocean.wav
-```
-
-### Custom Duration
-
-```bash
-curl -X POST http://localhost:8091/v1/audio/generate \
-    -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-    -d '{
-        "input": "A dog barking",
-        "audio_length": 5.0
-    }' --output dog_5s.wav
-```
-
-### High Quality with Negative Prompt
-
-```bash
-curl -X POST http://localhost:8091/v1/audio/generate \
-    -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-    -d '{
-        "input": "A piano playing a gentle melody",
-        "audio_length": 10.0,
-        "negative_prompt": "Low quality, distorted, noisy",
-        "guidance_scale": 8.0,
-        "num_inference_steps": 150
-    }' --output piano_hq.wav
-```
-
-### Reproducible Generation
-
-```bash
-curl -X POST http://localhost:8091/v1/audio/generate \
-    -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-    -d '{
-        "input": "Thunder and rain sounds",
-        "audio_length": 15.0,
-        "seed": 42
-    }' --output thunder.wav
-```
-
-### Quick Generation (Fewer Steps)
-
-For faster generation with slightly lower quality:
-
-```bash
-curl -X POST http://localhost:8091/v1/audio/generate \
-    -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-    -d '{
-        "input": "Birds chirping in a forest",
-        "audio_length": 8.0,
-        "num_inference_steps": 50
-    }' --output birds_quick.wav
-```
-
-## Python Client Examples
-
-### Simple Generation
-
-```bash
-python stable_audio_client.py \
-    --text "The sound of a cat purring"
-```
-
-### Custom Parameters
-
-```bash
-python stable_audio_client.py \
-    --text "Thunder and rain" \
-    --audio_length 15.0 \
-    --negative_prompt "Low quality" \
-    --guidance_scale 7.0 \
-    --num_inference_steps 100 \
-    --seed 42 \
-    --output thunder.wav
-```
-
-### Different Output Format
-
-```bash
-python stable_audio_client.py \
-    --text "Guitar playing" \
-    --response_format mp3 \
-    --output guitar.mp3
-```
-
-## Tips
-
-1. **Audio Length**: Keep under 47 seconds for `stable-audio-open-1.0`
-2. **Quality vs Speed**:
-   - 50 steps: Fast, decent quality
-   - 100 steps: Good balance (default)
-   - 150+ steps: High quality, slower
-3. **Guidance Scale**:
-   - Lower (3-5): More creative/varied
-   - Default (7): Good balance
-   - Higher (10+): More literal to prompt
-4. **Negative Prompts**: Use to avoid "Low quality", "distorted", "noisy", etc.
-5. **Seeds**: Use same seed for reproducible results
-
-## Performance
-
-| Inference Steps | Quality | Speed | Use Case |
-|----------------|---------|-------|----------|
-| 50 | Good | Fast | Quick previews |
-| 100 (default) | Very Good | Medium | Production |
-| 150+ | Excellent | Slow | Final/critical audio |
-
-## Troubleshooting
-
-### Server not responding
- Check if server is running: `curl http://localhost:8091/health`
- Check server logs for errors
-
-### Audio quality issues
- Increase `num_inference_steps` (e.g., 150)
- Add negative prompts: `"Low quality, distorted, noisy"`
- Increase `guidance_scale` for more prompt adherence
-
-### Generation timeout
- Reduce `num_inference_steps`
- Reduce `audio_length`
- Check GPU memory with `nvidia-smi`
-
-### Wrong audio length
- Ensure `audio_length` is within model limits (~47s max)
- Adjust `audio_start` if trimming is needed
