+# Composable parallel strategies
+
+In vLLM-Omni, the `composable_parallel` system layers a declarative *parallel strategy* on top of the existing stage configs. A strategy YAML maps each pipeline stage (by its `model_stage` name) to a stack of axis declarations — one per parallelism dimension — that the engine translates into per-stage parallel sizing (`tensor_parallel_size`, `data_parallel_size`, `pipeline_parallel_size`, expert-parallel toggle, replica count) and, when relevant, an orchestrator-wide load-balancer policy.
+
+Strategies are intentionally narrow: each one only writes the axes it declares, leaving every other engine arg untouched. This makes a strategy file a small, reusable overlay you can swap independently of the deploy YAML (see `configuration/stage_configs.md`).

+    Composable parallel is **opt-in**. Passing `--strategy-config <path/to/strategy.yaml>` overlays the derived sizing onto the registry-merged stages *before* any CLI overrides are applied. When `--strategy-config` is omitted, stages remain exactly as their deploy YAML produces them.
+
+## Top-level schema reference
+
+A strategy file has a single top-level mapping, `strategies`, keyed by the `model_stage` name of each stage you want to overlay. Each value is a list of axis declarations (see [StrategySpec fields](#strategyspec-fields) below).
+
+| Field | Type | Required | Default | Description |
+|-------|------|----------|---------|-------------|
+| `strategies` | `dict[str, list]` | required | — | Maps `model_stage` name (e.g. `thinker`, `talker`, `code2wav`, `dit`) to a list of axis declarations. The key MUST be the stage name, not the integer `stage_id`. See `vllm_omni/config/composable_parallel/strategy_loader.py`. |
+
+### StrategySpec fields
+
+Each entry in a stage's list becomes one `StrategySpec` (see `vllm_omni/config/composable_parallel/spec.py`). The loader fills in `routing` and `aggregation` from per-kind defaults, so the file stays compact.
+
+| Field | Type | Required | Default | Description |
+|-------|------|----------|---------|-------------|
+| `axis` | str | required | — | Mesh-axis kind. One of `tp`, `dp`, `pp`, `ep`, `stage_replica` (wired today) or `sp_ulysses`, `sp_ring`, `cfg`, `vae_pp`, `hsdp`, `stage_pp`, `cp` (reserved; declaring one raises `AxisTranslationError` at translate time). See `MeshAxisKind` in `vllm_omni/config/composable_parallel/spec.py`. |
+| `size` | int | required | — | Axis degree. Must be `> 0`. |
+| `routing` | str | optional | per-kind default | Stateless routing policy. Accepted only for `dp` / `stage_replica`; other kinds reject it. Values: `random`, `round_robin`, `least_queue`. (`hash` is recognised but currently raises `NotImplementedError`.) See `RouteByStage` in `vllm_omni/config/composable_parallel/routing.py`. |
+| `l1_owner` | str | optional | per-kind default | Overrides which layer owns request routing for this axis. `engine` for `tp`/`dp`/`pp`/`ep`, `delegated` for `stage_replica`. Recorded into `shard_extension`. |
+| `name` | str | optional | axis kind | Human-readable label for this spec, used in error messages. |
+
+Two additional `StrategySpec` slots — `layer_hook_specs` and `kernel_specs` — let advanced authors bind layer-walker hook IDs (`LayerHookSpec`) or kernel IDs (`KernelSpec`) onto an axis. These are not exposed by the YAML loader today and are intended for programmatic construction. See `vllm_omni/config/composable_parallel/spec.py` for the dataclasses.
+
+### CLI flags
+
+| Flag | Description |
+|------|-------------|
+| `--strategy-config PATH` | Path to a `strategy.yaml`. Only takes effect on registry-based deploy paths (`--deploy-config` or the bundled default deploy YAML). Its derived sizing is overlaid onto the merged stages *before* CLI overrides. |
+| `--stage-configs-path PATH` | **Legacy.** Loads the old `stage_args` YAML schema for un-migrated models. Passing `--strategy-config` together with this path is silently inapplicable — vLLM-Omni emits a warning and the strategy is ignored (see `vllm_omni/entrypoints/utils.py`, lines 372–380). |
+| `--omni-lb-policy POLICY` | Orchestrator-wide load-balancer policy. Strategy-derived from any `stage_replica` axis; an explicit CLI value wins and must match the derived one or `AsyncOmniEngine` raises `Conflicting load-balancer policy` at construction. |
+
+!!! warning
+    `--strategy-config` cannot be used with `--stage-configs-path` (the legacy deploy path). If your model has not been migrated to the registry-based pipeline yet, the strategy is silently dropped with a warning. Migrate to a registry-based model or use `--deploy-config` to apply a strategy.
+
+## Sub-schemas
+
+### `axis`
+
+The set of recognised axis kinds is the `MeshAxisKind` enum in `vllm_omni/config/composable_parallel/spec.py`:
+
+```yaml
+# Translatable today (see `_SUPPORTED_KINDS` in translator.py).
+axis: tp              # tensor parallel — sets tensor_parallel_size
+axis: dp              # engine data parallel — sets data_parallel_size (vLLM's intra-engine DP LB)
+axis: pp              # pipeline parallel — sets pipeline_parallel_size
+axis: ep              # dense expert parallel — sets enable_expert_parallel=True; size must equal tp*dp
+axis: stage_replica   # omni-coordinator-level replica fan-out — sets num_replicas + omni_lb_policy
+
+# Reserved (raise AxisTranslationError today; declared in the type system for forward compat).
+axis: sp_ulysses
+axis: sp_ring
+axis: cfg
+axis: vae_pp
+axis: hsdp
+axis: stage_pp
+axis: cp
+```
+
+### `routing`
+
+The full closed hierarchy lives in `vllm_omni/config/composable_parallel/routing.py` (`Broadcast`, `PartitionByHash`, `ShardSequence`, `ShardSpatial`, `RouteByExpert`, `PipelineMicrobatch`, `DuplicateWithCondTag`, `RouteByStage`). For YAML authors only `RouteByStage` is exposed as a `routing:` string, and only for `dp` / `stage_replica` axes (other axes have fixed routing — `tp`/`ep` broadcast, `pp` microbatch). Recognised policies:
+
+```yaml
+routing: random         # uniform-random across replicas/DP ranks
+routing: round_robin    # cycle through replicas/DP ranks (the default for dp/stage_replica)
+routing: least_queue    # send to the replica with the smallest backlog
+# routing: hash         # recognised but raises NotImplementedError; no key-stable balancer yet
+```
+
+### `aggregation`
+
+Aggregation is filled in automatically by the loader (`_default_aggregation` in `vllm_omni/config/composable_parallel/strategy_loader.py`) from the axis kind, so users do not author it:
+
+| Axis kind | Aggregation pattern |
+|-----------|---------------------|
+| `tp`, `ep` | `TakeRank` (all ranks agree; pick one) |
+| `dp`, ep (in some flows) | `Union` (disjoint replica results) |
+| `pp` | `StitchPipeline` |
+| `stage_replica` | `FanInByStage` |
+
+Full pattern hierarchy: `TakeRank`, `Union`, `GatherDim`, `AllGather`, `StitchSpatial`, `StitchPipeline`, `Combine`, `FanInByStage` (see `vllm_omni/config/composable_parallel/aggregation.py`).
+
+## Precedence
+
+From highest to lowest, when the same axis is touched by multiple layers:
+
+1. **CLI overrides** (`--tensor-parallel-size`, `--stage-overrides`, `--omni-lb-policy`, etc.). A CLI value always wins; a warning is emitted whenever it overrides a strategy-declared axis (see `_reconcile_strategy_with_cli` in `vllm_omni/config/config_factory.py`).
+2. **Strategy YAML** (`--strategy-config`). Derived sizing is written onto the merged stages with *conflict-on-explicit* semantics — if the deploy YAML already set a value to something different, application raises `StrategyApplyError`.
+3. **Deploy YAML** (`--deploy-config` or the bundled `vllm_omni/deploy/<model_type>.yaml`).
+4. **Parser defaults.**
+
+After CLI overrides land, the device-layout guard re-runs (`check_device_layout`, called from `_reconcile_strategy_with_cli`) against the *effective* `tp * dp * pp * num_replicas` and the resolved `devices` string, so a `devices` value passed through `--stage-overrides` or a `--tensor-parallel-size` value that conflicts with the strategy's world size cannot slip past the pre-spawn check.
+
+## Worked example
+
+### Example 1 — `strategy_tp2.yaml`
+
+Shard the `thinker` stage with TP=2 on top of the bundled Qwen2.5-Omni deploy YAML. Routing is fixed (broadcast) for TP, so no `routing:` field is needed.
+
+```yaml
+# examples/offline_inference/qwen2_5_omni/strategy_tp2.yaml
+strategies:
+  thinker:
+    - axis: tp
+      size: 2
+```
+
+Launch:
+
+```bash
+python3 end2end.py --query-type text --num-prompts 6 \
+    --strategy-config strategy_tp2.yaml \
+    --stage-overrides '{"0": {"devices": "0,1"}, "1": {"devices": "2"}, "2": {"devices": "2"}}'
+```
+
+Effective `OmniParallelConfig` per stage after the overlay (see `OmniParallelConfig` in `vllm_omni/config/composable_parallel/translator.py`):
+
+| Stage (`model_stage`) | `tensor_parallel_size` | `data_parallel_size` | `pipeline_parallel_size` | `stage_replica_size` | `omni_lb_policy` |
+|-----------------------|------------------------|----------------------|--------------------------|----------------------|------------------|
+| `thinker`             | **2** (from strategy)  | 1                    | 1                        | 1                    | —                |
+| `talker`              | 1                      | 1                    | 1                        | 1                    | —                |
+| `code2wav`            | 1                      | 1                    | 1                        | 1                    | —                |
+
+### Example 2 — `strategy_stage_replica.yaml`
+
+Replicate the `thinker` stage across two independent engines and let omni's StagePool round-robin requests across them.
+
+```yaml
+# examples/offline_inference/qwen2_5_omni/strategy_stage_replica.yaml
+strategies:
+  thinker:
+    - axis: stage_replica
+      size: 2
+      routing: round_robin
+```
+
+Launch:
+
+```bash
+python3 end2end.py --query-type text --num-prompts 6 \
+    --strategy-config strategy_stage_replica.yaml \
+    --stage-overrides '{"0": {"devices": "0,1"}, "1": {"devices": "2"}, "2": {"devices": "2"}}'
+```
+
+Effective per-stage config and the derived orchestrator knob:
+
+| Stage (`model_stage`) | `tensor_parallel_size` | `stage_replica_size` | `omni_lb_policy` (derived) |
+|-----------------------|------------------------|----------------------|----------------------------|
+| `thinker`             | 1                      | **2**                | **`round-robin`**          |
+| `talker`              | 1                      | 1                    | —                          |
+| `code2wav`            | 1                      | 1                    | —                          |
+
+The derived `omni_lb_policy = round-robin` is **not** written into any stage's engine args. Instead it is surfaced on `StrategyApplyResult.omni_lb_policy` and applied once at orchestrator construction by `AsyncOmniEngine._apply_strategy_lb_policy` (see `vllm_omni/engine/async_omni_engine.py`, lines 1107–1134). If you also pass `--omni-lb-policy round-robin` the values must match; passing a different value raises `Conflicting load-balancer policy`.
+
+## Per-field deep-dive
+
+### `name`
+
+Default: the axis kind (e.g. `"tp"`).
+
+Human-readable label that appears in `AxisTranslationError` and `StrategyApplyError` messages. Set it to disambiguate two stages declaring the same axis kind when scanning logs.
+
+### `mesh_axis` (`axis` + `size`)
+
+Default: no default — both fields are required.
+
+`axis` chooses the parallelism dimension; `size` is its degree. Five kinds are wired end-to-end today (`tp`, `dp`, `pp`, `ep`, `stage_replica`); the remaining kinds in `MeshAxisKind` are reserved and raise `AxisTranslationError` at translate time so a typo cannot silently become a no-op (see `_SUPPORTED_KINDS` in `vllm_omni/config/composable_parallel/translator.py`). For `ep`, the size MUST equal `tensor_parallel_size * data_parallel_size`.
+
+### `routing`
+
+Default: per-kind — `RouteByStage(round_robin)` for `dp` and `stage_replica`; `PipelineMicrobatch()` for `pp`; `Broadcast()` for `tp`/`ep` and any other kind.
+
+User-facing string only on `dp` and `stage_replica` axes. The four recognised values are `random`, `round_robin`, `least_queue`, `hash`; `hash` is rejected today with `NotImplementedError`. See `RouteByStage` in `vllm_omni/config/composable_parallel/routing.py`.
+
+### `l1_owner`
+
+Default: per-kind — `engine` for `tp`/`dp`/`pp`/`ep`, `delegated` for `stage_replica`.
+
+Overrides which layer owns request routing along this axis. `engine` means vLLM realizes routing intra-engine; `delegated` means the omni coordinator owns routing across independent replicas. Set this only when overriding the per-kind default in `_DEFAULT_L1_OWNER` (`vllm_omni/config/composable_parallel/translator.py`); invalid values fail fast in `_resolve_l1_owner`.
+
+### `stage_replica` and `omni_lb_policy`
+
+`stage_replica` is *not* a vLLM world dimension; it spins up `size` independent engine replicas of one stage, coordinated by the omni `StagePool` load balancer. The axis writes both:
+
+- The stage's `num_replicas` (a per-stage deploy knob).
+- The pipeline-wide `omni_lb_policy` string (an orchestrator-level knob).
+
+Because `omni_lb_policy` is read once at `AsyncOmniEngine` construction — not from per-stage engine args — only one value is allowed across the whole pipeline. If two stages declare conflicting policies, application raises (see `apply_strategy_specs` in `vllm_omni/config/composable_parallel/apply.py`, lines 253–260). To set this knob manually instead, use `--omni-lb-policy` on the CLI; see [the model stage docs](stage_configs.md) for how stage replicas plug into the orchestrator at runtime.
+
+### `model_stage` keys
+
+Default: no default — required for every entry under `strategies:`.
+
+Strategy keys MUST be `model_stage` *names* (strings), the same labels stage configs use for `engine_args.model_stage` (see [`model_stage` in `stage_configs.md`](stage_configs.md#engine_argsmodel_stage)). Integer `stage_id` values are not accepted; the resolver matches on `model_stage` exactly (`_resolve_stage` in `vllm_omni/config/composable_parallel/apply.py`).
+
+## Common pitfalls
+
+!!! warning "Using `stage_id` integers as keys"
+    Strategy keys are `model_stage` names (str), not integer stage IDs. A file that uses an integer index will raise at apply time:
+
+    ```text
+    StrategyApplyError: strategy role model_stage=0 did not match any stage;
+    available stages: 'thinker'(id=0), 'talker'(id=1), 'code2wav'(id=2)
+    ```
+
+    Use the `model_stage` name (e.g. `thinker`) instead.
+
+!!! warning "Mixing CLI overrides with a strategy on the same axis"
+    A strategy is meant to be the single writer for the axes it declares. If a CLI override (`--tensor-parallel-size 2`, `--stage-overrides '{"0": {"tensor_parallel_size": 2}}'`) sets the same axis, the **CLI value wins** and a warning is emitted from `_reconcile_strategy_with_cli`. The device-layout guard then re-runs against the effective layout, so a CLI override that breaks `tp * dp * pp * num_replicas` will still fail fast at config time.
+
+!!! warning "Passing `--strategy-config` against the legacy `--stage-configs-path`"
+    Composable parallel only applies on the registry-based deploy path. If a model still resolves through the legacy `stage_args` YAML (loaded via `--stage-configs-path`), `--strategy-config` is silently inapplicable and emits:
+
+    ```text
+    --strategy-config (<path>) was provided but model '<model>' resolves via the
+    legacy stage_configs YAML path, which does not support composable-parallel
+    strategies; the strategy is ignored. Use a registry-based model to apply it.
+    ```
+
+    Migrate the model to the new deploy schema (see `configuration/stage_configs.md`) before applying a strategy.
+
+!!! warning "Conflicting `omni_lb_policy` across stages"
+    `omni_lb_policy` is a single pipeline-wide knob. If two `stage_replica` axes in different stages derive different policies, `apply_strategy_specs` raises:
+
+    ```text
+    StrategyApplyError: role 'talker' derives omni_lb_policy='least-queue-length'
+    but role 'thinker' already derived 'round-robin'. The load-balancer policy is
+    pipeline-wide; only one value is allowed.
+    ```
+
+    Make the policies match, drop one, or supply the value explicitly via `--omni-lb-policy`.

+**Log layout** (default under `logs/ready_jobs`, `logs/merge_jobs`, or `logs/nightly_jobs`; override with `--log-dir`):
+
+| Path | Description |
+|------|-------------|
+| `jobs/*.sh` | Generated per-step bash wrappers |
+| `jobs/.job_timeouts` | Job key → `timeout_in_minutes` from Buildkite YAML (when set) |
+| `<job_key>.log` | Tee output for each job |
+| `timing_summary.log` | Per-job duration and total wall time after the run completes |
+
+**Timing:** while each job runs, stderr prints `finished in …` or `failed after …`. When all jobs finish, a summary is printed and written to `timing_summary.log`, for example:
+
+```
+=== Job timing summary ===
+  TTS_VoxCPM2_Test  25m 40s  OK
+  Omni_Qwen3-Omni_Test  8m 05s  TIMED OUT
+Total wall time: 33m 45s (2 jobs)
+Failed jobs: 1/2
+```
+
+**Timeouts:** if a Buildkite step defines `timeout_in_minutes`, the runner wraps that job with `timeout ${N}m` (aligned with CI). Steps without `timeout_in_minutes` rely on any inline `timeout …` already present in the extracted pytest command. On timeout the process exits with code `124` and the summary marks the job as `TIMED OUT`.

@@ -82,6 +82,33 @@ mutual exclusion: when one group runs, the other moves to CPU.

+### Component offloading for split models (e.g. Cosmos3)
+
+Some models split their transformer into mutually-exclusive *components* that run
+in different phases of a single forward pass rather than as separate pipeline
+components -- e.g. Cosmos3's understanding (reasoner) component runs once per
+generation while the generation (generator) component runs every denoising step.
+Such models have no separate text encoder to swap against, so the transformer
+owns a small model-local offload path and wraps each phase with
+`with self._offload_context(name):`
+
+```python
+class Cosmos3VFMTransformer(nn.Module):
+    def forward(self, ...):
+        with self._offload_context("reasoner"):
+            ...  # understanding pass, runs once
+        with self._offload_context("generator"):
+            ...  # denoising pass, runs every step
+```
+
+Model-level offloading then keeps exactly one component GPU-resident at a time
+(the other on CPU), reusing the same `SequentialOffloadHook` `.to()` movers. The
+pipeline opts in by exposing `enable_omni_model_cpu_offload` (which drives the
+transformer's `enable_model_cpu_offload` and pins the VAE). Layerwise offloading
+works for these models too -- each component declares its own block container via
+`_layerwise_offload_blocks_attrs`.

+# BitsAndBytes W4 Quantization
+
+## Overview
+
+BitsAndBytes 4-bit quantization supports weight-only NF4/FP4 diffusion transformer
+inference on CUDA GPUs. It quantizes BF16/FP16 weights at load time; activations
+stay in BF16/FP16. No pre-quantized checkpoint is required.
+
+This is an online (dynamic) path: load the normal HuggingFace checkpoint and
+quantize during model loading via the `bitsandbytes` CUDA kernels.
+
+## Hardware Support
+
+| Device | Support |
+|--------|---------|
+| NVIDIA CUDA GPU (SM 75+) | ✅ |
+| NVIDIA Blackwell GPU (SM 100+) | ✅ |
+| NVIDIA Ada/Hopper GPU (SM 89+) | ✅ |
+| NVIDIA Ampere GPU (SM 80+) | ✅ |
+| AMD ROCm | ❌ |
+| Intel XPU | ❌ |
+| Ascend NPU | ❌ |
+
+Legend: `✅` supported, `❌` unsupported. Non-CUDA platforms raise in
+`get_quant_method()`; CUDA requires compute capability 7.5+ (`SM 75+`).
+
+Requires the optional `bitsandbytes` package (`pip install bitsandbytes`).
+
+## Model Type Support
+
+### Diffusion Model (Qwen-Image, Wan2.2)
+
+| Model | HF models | CUDA | Mode | Recommendation |
+|-------|-----------|:----:|------|----------------|
+| Z-Image | `Tongyi-MAI/Z-Image-Turbo` | Yes | Online W4 weight-only | All heavy linear layers; sensitive embedders stay BF16 |
+| Qwen-Image | `Qwen/Qwen-Image`, `Qwen/Qwen-Image-2512` | Not validated | Online W4 weight-only | Compare vs BF16 before enabling |
+| Wan2.2 | Wan2.2 diffusion pipelines | Not validated | Online W4 weight-only | Validate before enabling in docs |
+
+Other diffusion models may work if their transformer uses supported linear
+layers, but they are not validated in this guide.
+
+### Multi-Stage Omni/TTS Model (Qwen3-Omni, Qwen3-TTS)
+
+| Model | Scope | Status | Notes |
+|-------|-------|--------|-------|
+| Qwen3-Omni | Thinker language-model stage | Not validated | Prefer checkpoint-supported ModelOpt FP8 or AutoRound paths |
+| Qwen3-TTS | TTS language-model stage | Not validated | No BitsAndBytes TTS stage support is documented |
+
+### Multi-Stage Diffusion Model (BAGEL, GLM-Image)
+
+| Model | Scope | Status | Notes |
+|-------|-------|--------|-------|
+| BAGEL | Stage-specific transformer or DiT module | Not validated | Requires explicit stage routing |
+| GLM-Image | Stage-specific transformer or DiT module | Not validated | Requires quality comparison with BF16 |
+
+## Configuration
+
+Python API:
+
+```python
+from vllm_omni import Omni
+from vllm_omni.inputs.data import OmniDiffusionSamplingParams
+
+omni = Omni(model="Tongyi-MAI/Z-Image-Turbo", quantization="bitsandbytes")
+
+omni_with_skips = Omni(
+    model="Tongyi-MAI/Z-Image-Turbo",
+    quantization_config={
+        "method": "bitsandbytes",
+        "ignored_layers": ["to_out"],
+    },
+)
+
+outputs = omni.generate(
+    "A cup of coffee on the table",
+    OmniDiffusionSamplingParams(num_inference_steps=50),
+)
+```
+
+CLI:
+
+```bash
+python text_to_image.py --model Tongyi-MAI/Z-Image-Turbo --quantization bitsandbytes
+python text_to_image.py --model Tongyi-MAI/Z-Image-Turbo --quantization bitsandbytes --ignored-layers "to_out"
+vllm serve Tongyi-MAI/Z-Image-Turbo --omni --quantization bitsandbytes
+```
+
+## Parameters
+
+| Parameter | Type | Default | Description |
+|-----------|------|---------|-------------|
+| `method` | str | - | Quantization method (`"bitsandbytes"`) |
+| `quant_type` | str | `"nf4"` | 4-bit data type: `"nf4"` (recommended) or `"fp4"` |
+| `compress_statistics` | bool | `True` | Double-quantize block scaling statistics for better accuracy |
+| `ignored_layers` | list[str] | `[]` | Layer name patterns to keep in BF16/FP16 |
+
+## Validation and Notes
+
+On Z-Image-Turbo (single GPU, 1024×1024, 50 steps), BitsAndBytes W4 typically
+reduces peak VRAM from roughly 24.5 GiB (BF16) to roughly 17 GiB. Compare output
+quality against a BF16 baseline before enabling on new models.
+
+Multi-GPU tensor parallelism (`tensor_parallel_size` > 1) is not validated for
+BitsAndBytes in diffusion models; each rank quantizes its own weight shard
+independently.
+
+If quality regresses, use `ignored_layers` to keep sensitive projections in BF16
+(for example `to_out` or `w2`).
+
+```python
+omni = Omni(
+    model="Tongyi-MAI/Z-Image-Turbo",
+    quantization="bitsandbytes",
+    cache_backend="tea_cache",
+    cache_config={"rel_l1_thresh": 0.2},
+)
+```
+
+Only add a new model to the supported table after comparing the BitsAndBytes
+output against a BF16 baseline and documenting any required `ignored_layers`.

+### Krea 2
+
+Krea 2 is published as diffusers-format checkpoints: `krea/Krea-2-Turbo` (few-step distilled) and `krea/Krea-2-Raw`.
+The pipeline class (`Krea2Pipeline`) is auto-detected from `model_index.json`. The distilled Turbo checkpoint sets
+`is_distilled=true` and is best run at 2048x2048 with few steps and guidance disabled:
+
+```bash
+# Few-step distilled (Turbo) checkpoint
+python examples/offline_inference/text_to_image/text_to_image.py \
+  --model krea/Krea-2-Turbo \
+  --prompt "a fox in the snow" \
+  --num-inference-steps 8 \
+  --guidance-scale 0.0 \
+  --height 2048 --width 2048 \
+  --output krea2.png
+```
+
+For the Raw checkpoint, use more steps with CFG enabled:
+
+```bash
+python examples/offline_inference/text_to_image/text_to_image.py \
+  --model krea/Krea-2-Raw \
+  --prompt "a fox in the snow" \
+  --num-inference-steps 28 \
+  --guidance-scale 4.5 \
+  --output krea2.png
+```
+
+`guidance-scale` follows the Krea 2 convention (`velocity = cond + guidance_scale * (cond - uncond)`); CFG is enabled
+whenever `guidance-scale > 0`.

-# LingBot-Video
-
-> Native dense text-to-video serving for `robbyant/lingbot-video-dense-1.3b`
-
-## Summary
-
- Vendor: Robbyant
- Model: `robbyant/lingbot-video-dense-1.3b`
- Task: Text-to-video generation
- Mode: Offline generation and online serving with the OpenAI-compatible `/v1/videos` API
- Maintainer: Community
-
-## When to use this recipe
-
-Use this recipe when you want to run the dense LingBot-Video checkpoint with
-vLLM-Omni's native pipeline. The runtime path does not import the upstream
-`lingbot_video` Python package; it loads the checkpoint components directly
-with the in-tree `LingBotVideoPipeline`, dense DiT transformer, shared FlowUniPC
-scheduler, Qwen3-VL text encoder, and Wan VAE.
-
-This recipe is intentionally text-to-video only. Text-to-image, image-conditioned
-video, TI2V, MoE checkpoints, and fused-expert kernels are not covered here.
-
-## References

- Related online video API docs: [`docs/serving/videos_api.md`](../../docs/serving/videos_api.md)
-
-## Hardware Support
-
-This recipe documents the CUDA single-GPU dense checkpoint path. Multi-GPU
-parallelism, Cache-DiT, CPU offload, and the LingBot MoE path are not validated
-for this model in this PR.
-
-## GPU
-
-### 1 x NVIDIA L20X / A100 / H100
-
-The dense 1.3B checkpoint has been smoke-tested on a single NVIDIA L20X at a
-small validation shape (`192x320`, 9 frames, 2 steps). Use a larger GPU or lower
-resolution/frame count if your target workload runs out of memory.
-
-#### Offline T2V
-
-```bash
-CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0 \
-python examples/offline_inference/text_to_video/text_to_video_lingbot.py \
-  --model robbyant/lingbot-video-dense-1.3b \
-  --prompt "a robotic arm picks up a red block" \

-  --num-frames 9 \
-  --num-inference-steps 2 \
-  --guidance-scale 3.0 \
-  --flow-shift 3.0 \
-  --seed 42 \
-  --fps 24
-```
-
-#### Online Serving
-
-```bash
-CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0 \
-vllm serve robbyant/lingbot-video-dense-1.3b \
-  --omni \
-  --model-class-name LingBotVideoPipeline \
-  --port 8091
-```
-
-After the server is ready, submit a text-to-video job:
-
-```bash
-create_response=$(curl -s http://localhost:8091/v1/videos \
-  -F "model=robbyant/lingbot-video-dense-1.3b" \
-  -F "prompt=a robotic arm picks up a red block" \

-  -F "fps=24" \
-  -F "num_inference_steps=2" \
-  -F "guidance_scale=3.0" \
-  -F "flow_shift=3.0" \
-  -F "seed=42")
-
-video_id=$(echo "${create_response}" | jq -r '.id')
-while true; do
-  status=$(curl -s "http://localhost:8091/v1/videos/${video_id}" | jq -r '.status')
-  if [ "${status}" = "completed" ]; then
-    break
-  fi
-  if [ "${status}" = "failed" ]; then
-    curl -s "http://localhost:8091/v1/videos/${video_id}" | jq .
-    exit 1
-  fi
-  sleep 2
-done
-
-curl -L "http://localhost:8091/v1/videos/${video_id}/content" -o lingbot_t2v.mp4
-```
-
-## Key Parameters
-
-| Parameter | Suggested smoke value | Notes |
-|-----------|-----------------------|-------|
-| `height` | `192` | Must be a multiple of 16 |
-| `width` | `320` | Must be a multiple of 16 |
-| `num_frames` | `9` | Must be `1` or `4n + 1`; this PR validates T2V with video outputs |
-| `num_inference_steps` | `2` | Use more steps for quality sweeps |
-| `guidance_scale` | `3.0` | CFG is active when this is greater than `1.0` |
-| `flow_shift` | `3.0` | Scheduler flow-shift; aliases the pipeline's internal `shift` |
-| `negative_prompt` | model default | Optional text describing artifacts to avoid |
-| `fps` | `24` | Output MP4 frame rate |
-
-## Validation
-
-Local dense smoke run:
-
- Shape: 9 frames at `192x320`
- Steps: 2
- Request generation time: `0.2923s`
- Peak reserved GPU memory: `14548 MiB`
-
-Local parity harness against the upstream repository:
-
- Shape: `[9, 192, 320, 3]`
- MAE: `0.0065238`
- MSE: `0.00006650`
- PSNR: `41.77 dB`
- Native request time: `0.2875s`
-
-Do not treat these as production benchmarks; they are draft-PR validation
-numbers for the small dense smoke configuration.
-
-## Known Limitations
-
- T2V only. T2I, I2V, and TI2V are not claimed by this PR.
- Dense checkpoint only. MoE/fused-expert support belongs in a separate PR.
- No Cache-DiT, TeaCache, tensor parallelism, sequence parallelism, CFG
-  parallelism, HSDP, CPU offload, or VAE patch parallelism validation yet.
- Only one request per LingBot pipeline batch is currently supported.

+### 1x Ascend 910B / 910C (Atlas A2 / A3) — Online serving
+
+#### Environment
+
+- OS: Linux (aarch64)
+- Python: 3.12+
+- Driver / runtime: CANN 8.5.1 + NNAL + Ascend 910B / 910C
+- vLLM version: match the repository requirements from your current checkout
+- vLLM-Ascend version: match the repository requirements from your current checkout
+- vLLM-Omni version or commit: use the commit you are deploying from
+
+#### Command
+
+Requires the `vllm-omni` package (or the `quay.io/atlas-ci/vllm-ascend` A2 / A3 container),
+which provides the `vllm serve … --omni` entrypoint used below.
+
+Safety guardrails are **on by default** (NVIDIA Open Model License). They load
+the **gated** `nvidia/Cosmos-1.0-Guardrail` model, so to keep them on you must:
+
+1. `pip install cosmos-guardrail`
+2. Accept the license at <https://huggingface.co/nvidia/Cosmos-1.0-Guardrail>
+3. Export a token with access: `export HF_TOKEN=hf_...`
+
+Then launch the recommended server:
+
+```bash
+vllm serve nvidia/Cosmos3-Nano \
+  --omni \
+  --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8000 \
+  --init-timeout 1800
+```
+
+To run **without** guardrails (you are responsible for license compliance),
+add `--no-guardrails` (no token/`cosmos-guardrail` needed). For tensor parallel
+add `--tensor-parallel-size 8`. `--quantization fp8` and
+`--enable-layerwise-offload` are not supported on NPU.
+The pipeline auto-resolves from `model_index.json`; pass
+`--model-class-name Cosmos3OmniDiffusersPipeline` to force it explicitly.
+
+#### Verification
+
+Best quality uses the JSON-upsampled prompts from `assets/` (download with
+`hf download nvidia/Cosmos3-Nano assets/ --local-dir Cosmos3-Nano`). Minimal
+self-contained examples:
+

+#### Notes

+- **Measured latency (1x Ascend 910B / 910C, bf16, guardrails off):**
+  - T2I 1024² — 10 steps → ~8 s
+  - T2V 1280×720 @ 20 steps — 49 frames → ~55 s
+  - I2V 1280×720 @ 10 steps — 25 frames → ~25 s
+  - V2V 480×320 @ 10 steps — 17 frames → ~12 s
+- **Memory:** transformer ~17 GiB (bf16); peak ~46 GiB for 720p video on 1 NPU;
+  full repo (transformer + Wan VAE + Qwen3-VL vision encoder + audio tokenizer)
+  ~33 GB on disk.
+- **Determinism:** identical seed reproduces identical output on the same
+  hardware; outputs are not bit-identical across different GPU/NPU types.
+- **Supported sizes (per model card):** 256p / 480p / 720p at 16:9, 4:3, 1:1,
+  3:4, 9:16. Defaults: T2I 1024², 50 steps, guidance 7.0; T2V/I2V/V2V
+  1280×720, 35 steps, guidance 6.0, `flow_shift=10.0`.
+- **Key flags / params:** `--no-guardrails` (optional, to disable guardrails), `--init-timeout 1800`
+  (for model loading), `--tensor-parallel-size 8` for multi-NPU, and
+  `--model-class-name Cosmos3OmniDiffusersPipeline` to force the pipeline class.
+- **Known limitations:**
+  - Transfer V2V with `extra_params` (`edge`/`blur`/`depth`/`seg`/`wsm`) hits a
+    resolution-parsing bug; basic V2V without transfer hints works.
+  - FP8 online quantization and layerwise offload are not supported on NPU.

+
+Krea 2 weights are ~30 GB and fit comfortably on a single 80 GB H100.
+
+#### Command
+
+Offline — few-step distilled (Turbo) checkpoint (2048×2048, no CFG):
+
+```bash
+python examples/offline_inference/text_to_image/text_to_image.py \
+  --model krea/Krea-2-Turbo \
+  --prompt "a fox in the snow" \
+  --num-inference-steps 8 \
+  --guidance-scale 0.0 \
+  --height 2048 --width 2048 \
+  --output krea2_turbo.png
+```
+
+Offline — Raw checkpoint (1024×1024, CFG enabled):
+
+```bash
+python examples/offline_inference/text_to_image/text_to_image.py \
+  --model krea/Krea-2-Raw \
+  --prompt "a fox in the snow" \
+  --num-inference-steps 28 \
+  --guidance-scale 4.5 \
+  --height 1024 --width 1024 \
+  --output krea2_raw.png
+```
+
+LoRA (offline) — pass a PEFT adapter with `--lora-path` / `--lora-scale`.
+`NagaSaiAbhinay/Krea-2-vllm-darkbrush-LoRA` is a vLLM-Omni-compatible repackaging
+of `krea/Krea-2-LoRA-darkbrush`; its trigger word is `monochrome ink wash style`:
+
+```bash
+python examples/offline_inference/text_to_image/text_to_image.py \
+  --model krea/Krea-2-Turbo \
+  --prompt "a fox in the snow, monochrome ink wash style" \
+  --num-inference-steps 8 --guidance-scale 0.0 \
+  --lora-path NagaSaiAbhinay/Krea-2-vllm-darkbrush-LoRA --lora-scale 1.0 \
+  --output krea2_darkbrush.png
+```
+
+Online — serve and query the OpenAI-compatible image route:
+
+```bash
+vllm serve krea/Krea-2-Turbo --omni --enforce-eager --port 8091
+```
+
+```bash
+curl -s http://localhost:8091/v1/images/generations \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{
+    "prompt": "a fox in the snow, monochrome ink wash style",
+    "size": "1024x1024",
+    "num_inference_steps": 8,
+    "guidance_scale": 0.0,
+    "seed": 42,
+    "lora": {"name": "darkbrush", "path": "NagaSaiAbhinay/Krea-2-vllm-darkbrush-LoRA", "scale": 1.0}
+  }' | jq -r '.data[0].b64_json' | base64 -d > krea2_online.png
+```
+
+Cache-DiT acceleration (offline) — add `--cache-backend cache_dit`:
+
+```bash
+python examples/offline_inference/text_to_image/text_to_image.py \
+  --model krea/Krea-2-Turbo --prompt "a fox in the snow" \
+  --num-inference-steps 8 --guidance-scale 0.0 \
+  --cache-backend cache_dit --output krea2_cachedit.png
+```
+
+#### Verification
+
+```bash
+# Offline: the script prints "Saved generated image to <path>"; confirm the file exists.
+ls -lh krea2_turbo.png
+```
+
+For the online route, decode the returned `b64_json` (see the `curl` above) and
+confirm a valid 1024×1024 PNG is written.
+
+#### Notes
+
+- Key flags: distilled Turbo → few steps (~8) with `guidance_scale=0.0`; Raw →
+  more steps (~28) with `guidance_scale>0` (CFG). `guidance-scale` follows the
+  Krea 2 convention `velocity = cond + guidance_scale * (cond - uncond)`.
+- LoRA: adapters must be PEFT format (`adapter_config.json` +
+  `adapter_model.safetensors`); the projections are `ReplicatedLinear`
+  (264 modules). Offline uses `--lora-path` (which sets
+  `OmniDiffusionSamplingParams.lora_request` / `lora_scale`); online uses the
+  top-level `lora` object. Style LoRAs like darkbrush need their trigger word in
+  the prompt.
+- Cache-DiT is supported; `has_separate_cfg` is checkpoint-aware (False for Turbo
+  no-CFG, True for Raw CFG).
+- Known limitations: TP / SP / CFG-Parallel are not yet wired for Krea 2. HSDP,
+  layerwise CPU offload, and VAE-patch-parallel (decode) are supported.
