+Bootstrap mode (pipeline.yml with __IMAGE_BUILD_IF__ placeholders):
+  - Detect docs-only PR/main changes and substitute skip-ci ``if`` expressions.
+
+Test pipeline mode (e.g. test-merge.yml):
+  - Drop steps or groups whose ``source_file_dependencies`` do not match changed files.
+  - ``source_file_dependencies`` may be set on a leaf step or on a group step.
+  - Always strip ``source_file_dependencies`` from uploaded YAML (Buildkite does not
+    recognize this uploader-only key).

+Usage:

+name: precheck-pr
+description: Self-check your branch before creating a PR — catch dead code, verify accuracy/perf claims, validate PR title format, and confirm merge readiness. Use when the user says "precheck", "self review", "pre-submit check", or "check my PR before I open it." Never posts to GitHub.
+---
+
+# PR Pre-Check
+
+Self-review your branch before creating a PR against `vllm-project/vllm-omni`. Two modes: **quick** catches showstoppers, **full** does a thorough maintainer-grade review. Never posts to GitHub; the report is for the contributor's terminal only.
+
+## Mode Selection
+
+| Mode | When | Time |
+|------|------|------|
+| **Quick** | About to push, final sanity check | ~3 min |
+| **Full** | Ready for review, want maintainer-level scan | ~10 min |
+
+Default to quick if unsure. Run full before marking a PR "ready for review."
+
+## Workflow
+
+### Step 1: Detect Base Branch
+
+```bash
+BASE_SHA=$(git merge-base HEAD origin/main 2>/dev/null \
+         || git merge-base HEAD main 2>/dev/null \
+         || echo origin/main)
+echo "diffing against ${BASE_SHA}"
+git diff --name-only ${BASE_SHA}...HEAD
+```
+
+### Step 2: Validate PR Title
+
+Check the most recent commit message (or branch name if no commit yet) against the project convention. Valid prefixes:
+
+| Prefix | Applies to |
+|--------|-----------|
+| `[Bugfix]` | Bug fixes |
+| `[CI/Build]` | Build or CI improvements |
+| `[Doc]` | Documentation changes |
+| `[Model]` | New/improved models (include model name) |
+| `[Frontend]` | Frontend changes (API server, OmniLLM class, etc.) |
+| `[Kernel]` | CUDA/kernel changes |
+| `[Core]` | Core logic changes (OmniProcessor, OmniARScheduler, etc.) |
+| `[Hardware][Vendor]` | Hardware-specific (e.g., `[Hardware][Ascend]`) |
+| `[Misc]` | Other changes (use sparingly) |
+
+✗ if: missing prefix, wrong case (`[bugfix]`), or WIP/Draft in title.
+⚠ if: `[Model]` prefix without the model identifier (e.g., `[Model] Add new model` — should be `[Model] Add <ModelName> ...`).
+
+### Step 3: Categorize the PR
+
+| Diff contains | PR type |
+|---------------|---------|
+| New files under `vllm_omni/model_executor/models/<name>/` | **New Model** |
+| Changes to `vllm_omni/diffusion/` | **Diffusion Model** |
+| `[Bugfix]` prefix or single-file fix | **Bug Fix** |
+| Perf/benchmark/throughput claims in commit msg or diff | **Performance** |
+| Everything else | **General** |
+
+If multiple rows apply (e.g., a diffusion model is also a new model), union the checklists.
+
+### Step 4: Run Checklist
+
+Ask: "Quick mode or full mode?" Then walk the checklist for the detected PR type from [references/checklists.md](references/checklists.md). Each item produces ✓, ✗, or ⚠.
+
+### Step 5: Print Report
+
+```
+Pre-check report for <branch>
+
+  Mode: quick | full
+  Type: <new-model | diffusion-model | bug-fix | perf | general>
+
+  Dimension          Result
+  ─────────────────  ──────
+  PR title format    ✓
+  PR desc integrity  ✓
+  Registry/config    ✓
+  Dead code          ⚠ 2 warnings
+  Accuracy           ✓
+  Benchmark          ✗ missing software versions
+
+  Verdict: 1 blocking | 2 warnings | recommend fixing ✗ before PR
+```
+
+**Severity:**
+
+| Mark | Meaning |
+|------|---------|
+| ✗ | Blocking — fix before opening PR |
+| ⚠ | Warning — consider fixing |
+| ✓ | Pass |
+| — | Skipped (not applicable) |
+
+### Stop Here
+
+Do not post comments, open PRs, or modify files. The report is for the contributor's terminal only.

+# Pre-Check Checklists
+
+Each item is a concrete check to run against the diff. ✗ = fix before PR. ⚠ = consider fixing.
+
+---
+
+## All PRs: Title Format (check first)
+
+PR title must follow the project convention documented in `docs/contributing/README.md`:
+
+| Prefix | Applies to |
+|--------|-----------|
+| `[Bugfix]` | Bug fixes |
+| `[CI/Build]` | Build or CI improvements |
+| `[Doc]` | Documentation changes |
+| `[Model]` | New/improved models (include model name) |
+| `[Frontend]` | Frontend changes (API server, OmniLLM class, etc.) |
+| `[Kernel]` | CUDA/kernel changes |
+| `[Core]` | Core logic changes (OmniProcessor, OmniARScheduler, etc.) |
+| `[Hardware][Vendor]` | Hardware-specific (e.g., `[Hardware][Ascend]`) |
+| `[Misc]` | Other changes (use sparingly) |
+
+**Examples:**
+```
+✓ [Model] Add MiniCPM-o 4.5 support
+✓ [Bugfix] Fix Ovis image text encoder dtype
+✓ [Core] Qwen3-Omni performance optimization
+✓ [Hardware][Ascend] Fix VoxCPM2 on Ascend
+✗ Fix Ovis image text encoder dtype              ← missing prefix
+✗ [bugfix] Fix Ovis image text encoder           ← wrong case
+✗ [WIP] Add model                                ← WIP in title
+```
+
+- [ ] **Title has valid prefix** — ✗ if missing prefix, wrong case, or WIP/Draft in title. For `[Model]` PRs, the title MUST also include the model identifier (e.g., `[Model] Add <ModelName> ...`). ⚠ if missing the model name.
+
+---
+
+## Bug Fix PRs
+
+### Quick
+
+- [ ] **PR body has 4 sections:** what broke (error message), repro steps, root cause, fix description
+- [ ] **Fix is minimal:** diff touches only files directly related to the bug. No unrelated refactors or style changes.
+- [ ] **Repro is runnable:** the PR body includes a copy-paste command that reproduces the bug
+- [ ] **Branch is rebased:** `git merge-base HEAD origin/main` is recent, no merge conflicts
+
+### Full (adds)
+
+- [ ] **Regression test exists:** `git diff --name-only` includes at least one `tests/` file
+- [ ] **Regression test reproduces the original error:** the test would fail on main, pass on this branch
+- [ ] **Fix matches root cause exactly:** no "fix the symptom + something else" — if the root cause is dtype, the fix is dtype, not dtype + reformatting
+- [ ] **No silent failure risk:** no bare `except: pass`, no `try: ... except: return None`, no empty fallback added
+- [ ] **Upstream pattern match:** the fix follows the same pattern as existing code for similar cases (grep for analogous `from_pretrained` calls, etc.)
+- [ ] **Environment documented:** torch/transformers/vllm versions listed if the bug is version-dependent
+
+---
+
+## Performance PRs
+
+### Quick
+
+- [ ] **Before/after numbers in PR body:** at minimum, one metric (RTF, RPS, latency, VRAM) with main vs PR values
+- [ ] **Hardware specified:** GPU model, count, VRAM. "L4" or "H20" is sufficient. "tested on GPU" is not.
+- [ ] **Concurrency scaling:** if the optimization claims better throughput, numbers at 2+ concurrency levels
+- [ ] **No unexplained regressions:** if any metric goes down at any concurrency level, explain why
+- [ ] **Branch is rebased:** `git merge-base HEAD origin/main` is recent, no merge conflicts
+
+### Full (adds)
+
+- [ ] **Software versions:** torch, CUDA, vllm, vllm-omni versions in PR body
+- [ ] **Warmup stated:** "1 warmup + 3 measured" or equivalent
+- [ ] **Stddev or range:** not just a single best run. "average of 2 rounds" is minimum.
+- [ ] **VRAM measured:** peak GPU memory before and after
+- [ ] **Benchmark script checked in:** under `tests/` or `examples/`, runnable by reviewer
+- [ ] **Exact command line in PR:** not pseudocode, not "run the benchmark"
+- [ ] **Pytest summary included:** `36 passed, 3 skipped, 17 warnings in 2897.66s` — proves the whole suite passes
+- [ ] **Config changes documented:** if `max_num_seqs`, `gpu_memory_utilization`, or deploy YAML changed, old and new values stated with reasoning
+
+---
+
+## New Model PRs
+
+### Quick
+
+- [ ] **PR body file list matches `git diff --name-only`:** every file path in the description exists in the diff
+- [ ] **Registry entries match claimed count:** count `_OMNI_MODELS` or `_DIFFUSION_MODELS` entries added vs claimed in body
+- [ ] **Pipeline config `custom_process_input_func` paths resolve:** each referenced module.function exists
+- [ ] **`__init__.py` exports match registry:** each registered class appears in `__init__.py` and `__all__`
+- [ ] **Shell script modes match README:** `run_curl.sh` supports every mode the README documents
+- [ ] **Branch is rebased:** `git merge-base HEAD origin/main` is recent, no merge conflicts
+
+### Full (adds)
+
+- [ ] **Dead code scan (5 patterns):**
+  1. Dead `forward()` — defined but never called through the pipeline path
+  2. Dead factory/builder functions — instantiated nowhere
+  3. Dead wrappers — thin wrappers with no callers
+  4. Dead branch guards — `if version > X` where X is always satisfied
+  5. Unused parameters — `__init__` args never accessed
+- [ ] **Copy-paste detection:** no string constant defined in 3+ files, no cross-module validation duplication, no near-identical shape coercion fns
+- [ ] **Import hygiene:** no re-export-only imports, no module-level side effects without docs, no `import os` in function body when already at top. Function-body imports are acceptable when the import is only reachable from a closure or factory return value (i.e., `import` would otherwise execute at module load even though the user may never trigger that path). Either lift to top-of-file or annotate with `# noqa: PLC0415`.
+- [ ] **Accuracy:** at least one test compares output against reference; audio = valid WAV at correct sample rate; determinism verified if seed claimed. ⚠ if missing and not explicitly deferred to a follow-up PR or RFC section; — if explicitly deferred (the deferral target SHOULD be linked in the PR body).
+- [ ] **Performance:** hardware, software versions, warmup, and metrics (RTF, VRAM, RPS, latency) stated. ⚠ if missing and not explicitly deferred; — if explicitly deferred.
+- [ ] **Benchmark settings:** model config (TP, PP, max_model_len, enforce_eager, quant), runtime config (batch, input/output spec), environment versions
+- [ ] **Benchmark script checked in + exact command line + pytest summary**
+
+---
+
+## Diffusion Model PRs
+
+Diffusion models live under `vllm_omni/diffusion/`. In addition to the New Model checklist above, verify:
+
+- [ ] **Transformer adapter follows contract:** inherits from `nn.Module`, implements `load_weights()`, uses `vllm_omni.diffusion.attention.layer.Attention`
+- [ ] **Pipeline has both offline and online paths:** `forward()` for batch generation, streaming path for online serving
+- [ ] **Cache-DiT integration:** at least one acceleration (TeaCache, FBCache, etc.) is wired up. ✗ for new **top-level** pipelines. For **subclass** pipelines that inherit `__call__` from a parent where Cache-DiT is already absent, downgrade to ⚠ and recommend filing a follow-up issue against the parent pipeline family.
+- [ ] **Parallelism config:** TP/SP/USP/CFG-Parallel options exposed in pipeline config
+- [ ] **Docs table updated:** model added to `docs/models/supported_models.md` with correct metadata
+- [ ] **E2E test exists:** at least one test exercises the full generate path
+
+---
+
+## General PRs
+
+### Quick
+

+name: quantization
+description: Work on vLLM-Omni quantization for diffusion, autoregressive, omni, or multi-stage models. Use when choosing or adding methods such as fp8, int8, gguf, mxfp8, mxfp4, mxfp4_dualscale, ModelOpt, AutoRound, INC, msModelSlim, awq, or gptq; debugging quantized loading; or validating memory, speed, and output quality.
+---
+
+# vLLM-Omni Quantization
+
+Use this skill for quantization work in `vllm-omni`. Start from the local
+code and docs, then pick the smallest validated path for the model, method,
+hardware, and quality target.
+
+## First Checks
+
+Before changing code or recommending a command, identify:
+
+- Model and task: AR text, omni/TTS, text-to-image, text-to-video, or multi-stage diffusion.
+- Hardware backend: CUDA generation, Ascend NPU, Intel XPU, or another platform.
+- Quantization mode: online from BF16/FP16 weights, pre-quantized checkpoint, runtime KV/FA quantization, or per-component routing.
+- Scope: transformer/DiT, thinker language model, text encoder, VAE, audio/vision encoder, talker, or a specific stage.
+- Validation target: memory reduction, latency/throughput, output quality, or all three.
+
+Do not assume a method is supported just because the CLI accepts the string.
+Check `docs/user_guide/quantization/` and the closest implementation first.
+
+## Quick Decision
+
+| Task | Start With |
+|------|------------|
+| Choose a method or command | `references/methods.md` and `references/modality-compat.md` |
+| Use `build_quant_config()` or per-component routing | `references/methods.md` |
+| Work on diffusion quantization | `references/diffusion.md` |
+| Add quantization to a new model | `references/adding-models.md` |
+| Convert or load ModelOpt FP8 checkpoints | `references/modelopt-fp8.md` |
+| Debug ModelOpt, GGUF, AutoRound, MXFP, or serialized Int8 loading | `references/diffusion.md` and method docs under `docs/user_guide/quantization/` |
+
+## Current Runtime Shape
+
+The unified entrypoint is:
+
+```python
+from vllm_omni.quantization import build_quant_config
+```
+
+It supports method strings, flat method dictionaries, per-component
+dictionaries, existing `QuantizationConfig` objects, and `None`. The factory
+delegates generic methods to upstream `vllm` and keeps vLLM-Omni overrides for
+diffusion or omni-specific routing:
+
+- `gguf`
+- `int8`
+- `mxfp8`
+- `mxfp4`
+- `mxfp4_dualscale`
+- `inc`, `auto-round`, `auto_round`
+- ModelOpt auto-detected configs: `modelopt`, `modelopt_fp4`, `modelopt_mixed`
+
+Use `ComponentQuantizationConfig` when only one stage or component should be
+quantized. Pre-quantized ModelOpt-style checkpoints should not spill into
+vision/audio encoders that have no corresponding scale tensors.
+
+## Ownership Boundary
+
+- Upstream `vllm` owns generic quantization configs, kernels, loader semantics,
+  hardware capability rules, and generic AR quantization methods.
+- `vllm-omni` owns unified config routing, diffusion-specific wrappers,
+  component scoping, GGUF or ModelOpt checkpoint adapters, model-specific
+  prefix mapping, docs, examples, and validation.
+
+If a new method needs missing generic kernels or loader behavior, fix upstream
+`vllm` first. In `vllm-omni`, add thin integration and model wiring.
+
+## Working Loop
+
+1. Read the local method doc under `docs/user_guide/quantization/`.
+2. Inspect the active factory and config class in `vllm_omni/quantization/`.
+3. Inspect the target model pipeline and transformer for stable prefixes and
+   whether every relevant vLLM linear layer receives `quant_config`.
+4. For pre-quantized checkpoints, inspect `transformer/config.json` and the
+   checkpoint tensor names before running full generation.
+5. Validate with the same prompt, seed, size, scheduler, steps, dtype, eager or
+   non-eager mode, and parallelism as the BF16 baseline.
+6. Report quality, latency, and memory separately. Do not call a method
+   supported until quality is checked.
+
+## Common Mistakes
+
+| Symptom | Likely Cause | Fix |
+|---------|--------------|-----|
+| `--quantization` has no visible effect | Wrong scope or unsupported model path | Check component routing and method docs |
+| Some layers stay BF16 unexpectedly | `quant_config` was not threaded into all vLLM linear layers | Audit transformer constructors and prefixes |
+| Quality collapses but loading succeeds | Too many sensitive layers were quantized | Add model-specific `ignored_layers` and compare to BF16 |
+| ModelOpt checkpoint loads but output is corrupted | Prefixes, packed-module mapping, scale routing, or BF16 fallback is wrong | Use `references/modelopt-fp8.md` |
+| GGUF shape or tensor mismatch | Missing architecture-specific adapter | Add explicit adapter mapping; avoid generic fallback |
+| Online and offline MXFP4 disagree | Wrong `mxfp4` vs `mxfp4_dualscale` mode | Check `docs/user_guide/quantization/mxfp4.md` |
+| Quantized path is slower than BF16 | Kernel path, compile mode, dtype, or shape mismatch | Compare eager-to-eager and non-eager-to-non-eager |

+# Adding Quantization Support to a Model
+
+Use this checklist when extending quantization to a new architecture or stage.
+
+## Classify Ownership
+
+| Case | Owner |
+|------|-------|
+| New generic AR method, kernel, or loader semantics | upstream `vllm` first |
+| Existing upstream method needs diffusion wiring | `vllm-omni` model and config integration |
+| GGUF or ModelOpt tensor mapping for a diffusion architecture | `vllm-omni` adapter |
+| NPU MXFP or msModelSlim diffusion path | `vllm-omni` platform/method wrapper and docs |
+| Multi-stage omni checkpoint quantizes only the thinker LM | `vllm-omni` component scoping |
+
+Avoid building a private quantization stack in model code.
+
+## Model Wiring Checklist
+
+1. Find the closest supported model implementation.
+2. Confirm the model uses vLLM linear layers that accept `quant_config`.
+3. Add `quant_config` to the transformer constructor.
+4. Pass stable `prefix` values through every linear layer.
+5. Handle fused modules and packed mappings explicitly.
+6. Ensure `load_weights()` and any `WeightsMapper` remap `ignored_layers` or
+   `modules_to_not_convert`.
+7. Keep tokenizer, scheduler, VAE, text encoder, audio/vision encoders, and
+   talker BF16 unless method-specific docs validate them.
+8. Add or update a method doc under `docs/user_guide/quantization/`.
+
+## Checkpoint Adapter Checklist
+
+For pre-quantized checkpoints:
+
+- Inspect `transformer/config.json` first.
+- Check `quant_method`, `method`, `producer.name`, `quant_algo`, serialized
+  flags, `ignored_layers`, and any method-specific fields.
+- Verify tensor name mapping before generation.
+- Verify packed modules such as `to_qkv`, `add_kv_proj`, and `w13`.
+- Confirm scale tensor names and shapes.
+- Allow dequantization back to BF16 for intentionally skipped target layers.
+
+## Sensitive Layer Discovery
+
+Start conservative. Quantize the backbone first and keep output-side or routing
+layers BF16 until quality is proven.
+
+Frequently sensitive areas:
+
+- attention output projections such as `to_out`
+- FFN down projections such as `w2`
+- final projections such as `proj_out`, `final_layer`, and output heads
+- modulation, timestep, position, image, or text embedders
+- refiner blocks
+- MoE routers, experts selected by routing, and layernorm-adjacent modules
+- VAE, text/vision towers, audio encoders, and codec/talker stages
+
+Do not reuse one model family's ignore list blindly.
+
+## Tests and Evidence
+
+Minimum evidence for a PR:
+
+- loader/config test or smoke command
+- fixed-seed BF16 vs quantized output comparison
+- quality metrics and saved outputs for precision-changing work
+- memory and latency comparison under identical execution mode
+- failure behavior for unsupported models or missing checkpoint fields
+
+When the PR adds a method to a support table, include the exact model,
+hardware, command, quality threshold, and artifact path used for validation.

+# Diffusion Quantization Reference
+
+Use this file for DiT quantization, config routing, checkpoint adapters, and
+quality or loader debugging.
+
+## Supported Method Families
+
+The current local diffusion quantization families are:
+
+- CUDA/GPU online or checkpoint: `fp8`, `int8`, `gguf`, ModelOpt
+- Ascend NPU: `int8`, `mxfp8`, `mxfp4`, `mxfp4_dualscale`, msModelSlim paths
+- Intel XPU: AutoRound/INC and online MXFP8 paths where documented
+
+Always cross-check the method doc before claiming model support. The CLI
+accepting a method string is not enough.
+
+## Implementation Starting Points
+
+| Area | Files |
+|------|-------|
+| Unified factory | `vllm_omni/quantization/factory.py` |
+| Per-component routing | `vllm_omni/quantization/component_config.py` |
+| GGUF diffusion method | `vllm_omni/quantization/gguf_config.py` |
+| Int8 diffusion method | `vllm_omni/quantization/int8_config.py` |
+| MXFP8 diffusion method | `vllm_omni/quantization/mxfp8_config.py` |
+| MXFP4 and dual-scale method | `vllm_omni/quantization/mxfp4_config.py` |
+| AutoRound/INC omni extension | `vllm_omni/quantization/inc_config.py` |
+| ModelOpt checkpoint adapters | `vllm_omni/diffusion/model_loader/checkpoint_adapters/modelopt.py` |
+| FP8 scaled-mm runtime patches | `vllm_omni/patch.py` |
+| Similarity tool | `vllm_omni/quantization/tools/compare_diffusion_trajectory_similarity.py` |
+
+## Threading `quant_config`
+
+For a diffusion transformer:
+
+1. Accept `quant_config: QuantizationConfig | None` in the transformer.
+2. Pass `quant_config` and stable `prefix` values to every vLLM linear layer.
+3. Preserve packed-module mappings for fused QKV, FFN, or model-specific fused
+   projections.
+4. Call `apply_vllm_mapper()` on configs that need HF-to-vLLM name remapping.
+5. For component configs, keep prefixes specific enough to avoid quantizing VAE
+   or encoders by accident.
+
+Common skipped areas are `proj_out`, output projections, modulation layers,
+embedders, refiner blocks, MoE routers, and layernorm-adjacent paths.
+
+## Online vs Offline
+
+Online quantization:
+
+- starts from BF16/FP16 checkpoint weights
+- computes or stores quantized weights at load time
+- typically uses `--quantization <method>` or `quantization="<method>"`
+
+Offline or pre-quantized checkpoints:
+
+- include quantized weights and scales on disk
+- usually carry `quantization_config` in `transformer/config.json`
+- should auto-detect when the config is complete
+- may require model-specific adapter logic for tensor names and packed modules
+
+Do not mix online flags with incompatible offline checkpoint configs. If the
+active config and disk config differ, `resolve_quant_config_from_disk()` should
+raise or rebuild rather than silently loading corrupted weights.
+
+## GGUF Rules
+
+- Require `quantization_config.gguf_model`.
+- Use the normal base model for tokenizer, scheduler, text encoder, and VAE.
+- Add explicit architecture adapters for tensor-name mapping.
+- Use `named_parameters()` and `named_buffers()`, not `state_dict()`, to
+  discover loadable names.
+- Guard fused QKV/KV rewrites so tensors are not rewritten twice.
+- Flatten N-D activations around the GGUF matmul and restore shape.
+
+Unsupported architectures should fail clearly instead of falling back to a fake
+generic mapper.
+
+## MXFP Rules
+
+- `mxfp8` is W8A8 microscaling, currently centered on NPU and documented XPU
+  behavior.
+- `mxfp4` is online single-scale W4A4 on NPU.
+- `mxfp4_dualscale` is online/offline dual-scale W4A4 with BF16 fallback; the
+  offline path is the production path when calibrated `mul_scale` exists.
+- Offline dual-scale checkpoints must inject per-transformer `ignored_layers`
+  into config because cascade transformers can have different BF16 fallback
+  sets.
+
+Do not load an offline dual-scale checkpoint with the online single-scale path.
+
+## Common Failures
+
+| Symptom | Likely Cause | Fix |
+|---------|--------------|-----|
+| `Unknown quantization method` | Factory override or upstream registration is missing | Add the right override or upstream method |
+| Missing scale tensors | Wrong scope, wrong adapter, or BF16 layer not allowed to dequantize | Check config scope and adapter scale routing |
+| Output rank collapses from 3-D to 2-D | FP8 scaled-mm kernel ignored output shape | Check the patch in `vllm_omni/patch.py` |
+| Quality degrades silently | Sensitive layers quantized | Add `ignored_layers`; compare to BF16 |
+| Only one cascade transformer works | Disk config differs per transformer but active config is reused | Rebuild from each transformer's config |
+| Quantized path slower than BF16 | Kernel, dtype, compile, or benchmark mode mismatch | Compare eager-to-eager and non-eager-to-non-eager |
+
+## Verification
+
+For a new or changed diffusion quantization path, run:
+
+1. Config and loader smoke test.
+2. One fixed-seed generation against BF16.
+3. Numeric comparison with the similarity tool or equivalent metrics.
+4. Serving test if the path is user-facing online.
+5. Memory and latency check under the same execution mode as the baseline.
+
+Keep output artifacts when precision changes are part of the PR.

+# General Quantization Methods
+
+Use this file for method selection and unified `vllm-omni` config syntax. For
+diffusion-specific wiring, see `diffusion.md`. For ModelOpt checkpoint export
+and loading details, see `modelopt-fp8.md`.
+
+## Unified Entry Point
+
+`vllm_omni.quantization.build_quant_config()` accepts:
+
+- `None` or `"none"` to disable quantization
+- a method string such as `"fp8"`, `"int8"`, `"mxfp8"`, `"awq"`, or `"auto-round"`
+- a flat dict with `"method"` or `"quant_method"`
+- a per-component dict such as `{"transformer": {"method": "fp8"}, "vae": None}`
+- an already-built `QuantizationConfig`
+
+Per-component dicts are routed by `ComponentQuantizationConfig` using
+longest-prefix matching. Prefix stability matters: if a model remaps HF names
+to vLLM names, apply the mapper to `ignored_layers` or component prefixes.
+
+## Local Overrides
+
+The local factory delegates most methods to upstream `vllm`, but has vLLM-Omni
+overrides for methods that need diffusion, NPU, XPU, or component behavior:
+
+| Method | Local Config | Main Use |
+|--------|--------------|----------|
+| `gguf` | `DiffusionGGUFConfig` | Pre-quantized diffusion transformer weights |
+| `int8` | `DiffusionInt8Config` | Online or serialized W8A8 diffusion transformers |
+| `mxfp8` | `DiffusionMXFP8Config` | W8A8 MXFP8 diffusion on NPU and online XPU path |
+| `mxfp4` | `DiffusionMXFP4Config` | Online W4A4 MXFP4 diffusion on NPU |
+| `mxfp4_dualscale` | `DiffusionMXFP4DualScaleMixedConfig` | Online/offline W4A4 dual-scale plus BF16 fallback on NPU |
+| `inc`, `auto-round`, `auto_round` | `OmniINCConfig` | AutoRound/INC checkpoint loading, including MXFP8 checkpoint metadata |
+| ModelOpt config dicts | upstream ModelOpt configs through auto-detect | FP8, NVFP4, or mixed ModelOpt checkpoints |
+
+Check `SUPPORTED_QUANTIZATION_METHODS` in `vllm_omni/quantization/factory.py`
+before adding a new method name.
+
+## AR and Generic Quantization
+
+For AR-backed models, upstream `vllm` methods usually apply:
+
+- `awq` and `gptq`: 4-bit or 8-bit weight quantization with calibration,
+  commonly used for text and AR stages.
+- `fp8`: FP8 weight path or KV-cache FP8 depending on flags and hardware.
+- `inc` or `auto-round`: pre-quantized checkpoints with Intel Neural
+  Compressor / AutoRound metadata.
+
+Use these for the AR language model stage only when the checkpoint and model
+guide support it. Omni and TTS models often keep audio, vision, talker, and
+codec stages in BF16.
+
+## Diffusion and Offline Methods
+
+For diffusion transformers, prefer the method-specific docs:
+
+- `docs/user_guide/quantization/fp8.md`
+- `docs/user_guide/quantization/int8.md`
+- `docs/user_guide/quantization/gguf.md`
+- `docs/user_guide/quantization/modelopt.md`
+- `docs/user_guide/quantization/mxfp8.md`
+- `docs/user_guide/quantization/mxfp4.md`
+- `docs/user_guide/quantization/autoround.md`
+- `docs/user_guide/quantization/msmodelslim.md`
+
+Pre-quantized checkpoints should normally auto-detect from config. Runtime
+flags such as `--force-cutlass-fp8`, `--linear-backend cutlass`, and
+`--moe-backend cutlass` select kernels; they do not quantize a BF16 checkpoint.
+
+## Validation
+
+Use fixed-seed A/B comparisons and record:
+
+- model path and quantized checkpoint path
+- method config and `ignored_layers`
+- prompt, size, frame count, steps, scheduler, dtype, and seed
+- eager/non-eager mode, compile flags, and parallelism
+- output metrics such as PSNR, MAE, cosine similarity, SSIM, LPIPS, plus visual artifacts
+- latency and peak memory, reported separately from quality
+
+The helper `vllm_omni.quantization.tools.compare_diffusion_trajectory_similarity`
+is the default lightweight image/video comparison tool for diffusion paths.

+# Quantization Compatibility by Modality
+
+Use this as a routing guide. The source of truth is the local method docs under
+`docs/user_guide/quantization/` and the current model implementation.
+
+## Summary
+
+- AR and omni language-model quantization mostly follows upstream `vllm`, with
+  vLLM-Omni scoping for multi-stage models.
+- Diffusion quantization is method-specific and model-specific. It usually
+  targets the diffusion transformer only.
+- Pre-quantized checkpoints should quantize only the component that has
+  quantized weights and scale tensors.
+
+## Model Type Matrix
+
+| Model Type | Typical Quantization Scope | Notes |
+|------------|----------------------------|-------|
+| AR text models | Language model | Upstream `vllm` methods usually apply |
+| Omni/TTS models | Thinker or AR language-model stage | Audio, vision, talker, and codec stages usually stay BF16 |
+| DiT image models | Diffusion transformer | Check FP8, Int8, GGUF, ModelOpt, AutoRound docs |
+| DiT video models | Diffusion transformer | HunyuanVideo FP8 and Wan2.2 MXFP paths are documented; validate other video paths |
+| Multi-stage diffusion | Selected stage only | Use per-component routing and per-stage validation |
+| Audio diffusion | Usually unsupported | Prefer dtype, offload, cache, or parallelism unless docs say otherwise |
+
+## Method Hints
+
+| Goal | Candidate |
+|------|-----------|
+| AR memory reduction | AWQ, GPTQ, AutoRound, ModelOpt where checkpoint supports it |
+| CUDA diffusion W8A8 | FP8 or Int8 |
+| Pre-quantized CUDA diffusion checkpoint | ModelOpt or GGUF |
+| Ascend NPU diffusion | Int8, MXFP8, MXFP4, MXFP4 DualScale, msModelSlim |
+| Intel XPU checkpoint | AutoRound/INC paths |
+| Conservative image quality | selective FP8/Int8 with `ignored_layers` |
+| Unsupported diffusion model | cache acceleration, CPU/layerwise offload, dtype, TP/SP/CFG parallelism |
+
+## Validation Rule
+
+Compatibility means more than successful loading. A method is compatible only
+after it has:
+
+- correct component scope
+- complete checkpoint/config metadata if offline
+- fixed-seed quality comparison against BF16
+- acceptable latency and memory behavior
+- docs or examples that state model, method, hardware, and caveats

+# ModelOpt FP8 Conversion and Loading
+
+Use this when exporting or loading ModelOpt FP8 checkpoints for diffusion
+transformers. This reference captures the practical conversion lessons from the
+2026-04-21 ModelOpt FP8 paste and aligns them with the current
+`vllm-omni` ModelOpt adapter.
+
+## Core Rule
+
+Treat ModelOpt FP8 as selective checkpoint quantization, not one-click
+whole-model FP8. Quantize the main transformer or DiT backbone, keep sensitive
+or peripheral modules BF16, serialize a complete ModelOpt checkpoint, and let
+vLLM-Omni auto-detect it from config.
+
+Do not pass `--quantization fp8` to force a ModelOpt checkpoint path. The
+checkpoint's `quantization_config` should select `modelopt`.
+
+## Conversion Strategy
+
+Prefer:
+
+- backbone attention Q/K/V and FFN expansion projections
+- conservative per-model ignore lists
+- MHA quantizers disabled until basic linear quantization is stable
+- full module-name prefixes in ignore/routing logic
+- BF16 fallback for output-side and routing-sensitive layers
+
+Avoid quantizing by default:
+
+- VAE
+- text, vision, or audio encoders
+- embedders and modulation layers
+- final heads and output projections
+- refiner modules
+- MoE routers and layernorm-sensitive blocks
+
+## Model-Specific Starting Points
+
+| Model Family | Quantize First | Keep BF16 First |
+|--------------|----------------|-----------------|
+| Z-Image | attention q/k/v, FFN w1/w3 | `to_out`, `w2`, `noise_refiner`, `context_refiner`, embedders, modulation, final/output |
+| Qwen-Image | transformer backbone linear layers | `proj_out`, `img_in`, `txt_in`, norms, modulation, position/time/embed layers |
+| FLUX2-dev / FLUX2-klein | backbone linear layers | `proj_out`, context/x embedders, `norm_out`, stream modulation, time embeddings |
+| HunyuanImage-3.0 | `model.model` backbone | VAE, vision tower, token/time/image embedders, final image head, LM head, routers, layernorm-sensitive blocks |
+
+These are starting points, not support claims. Validate with BF16 outputs.
+
+## Required Checkpoint Metadata
+
+`transformer/config.json` must include a complete `quantization_config`.
+At minimum it should identify ModelOpt and the algorithm:
+
+```json
+{
+  "quantization_config": {
+    "producer": {"name": "modelopt"},
+    "quant_method": "modelopt",
+    "quant_algo": "FP8"
+  }
+}
+```
+
+Current vLLM-Omni auto-detects:
+
+- `FP8` and `FP8_PER_CHANNEL_PER_TOKEN` -> `modelopt`
+- `NVFP4` -> `modelopt_fp4`
+- `MIXED_PRECISION` -> `modelopt_mixed`
+
+Packed modules and scales must map correctly:
+
+- `to_qkv` from `to_q`, `to_k`, `to_v`
+- `add_kv_proj` from `add_q_proj`, `add_k_proj`, `add_v_proj`
+- `w13` from `w1`, `w3`
+- `.input_scale`, `.weight_scale`, `.weight_scale_2`, `.weight_scale_inv`
+
+For selective FP8, target layers that remain BF16 must be allowed to
+dequantize from FP8 weights using the matching `weight_scale`, or the adapter
+must skip the quantized scale tensors for that BF16 target.
+
+## Runtime Signals
+
+Healthy loading should show ModelOpt auto-detection and a ModelOpt linear
+kernel path. Useful signals include:
+
+- auto-detected quantization from config
+- selected ModelOpt FP8 linear method
+- CUTLASS or FlashInfer FP8 scaled-mm backend when enabled and supported
+- non-eager path compiling the transformer when expected
+
+If online serving fails while offline inference works, inspect warmup and
+serving initialization before changing checkpoint conversion.
+
+## Validation Order
+
+1. Check config completeness.
+2. Run an export checker such as `examples/quantization/check_modelopt_fp8_export.py`.
+3. Confirm actual FP8 tensors and expected disk-size reduction.
+4. Run one offline generation with fixed prompt, seed, size, and steps.
+5. Run serving with `vllm serve --omni` and verify `/v1/images/generations`.
+6. Compare against BF16 using visual review plus metrics such as LPIPS, PSNR,
+   MAE, cosine similarity, and SSIM.
+7. Compare performance only under matched modes:
+   - BF16 eager vs FP8 eager
+   - BF16 non-eager vs FP8 non-eager
+
+FP8 is not automatically faster. Check whether execution reaches FP8 kernels,
+whether compile mode is comparable, and whether the workload shape fits the
+kernel path.
+
+## Triage
+
+| Symptom | First Check |
+|---------|-------------|
+| Startup failure | `config.json`, `model_index.json`, `quantization_config`, missing scales |
+| Loads but output is corrupted | Over-quantized sensitive layers or wrong full-name prefixes |
+| Offline works but online fails | Dummy warmup, serving init, compile path |
+| FP8 is not faster | Kernel selection, dtype, compile mode, workload shape |
+| BF16 fallback fails | Missing `weight_scale` for dequantization or wrong packed-module mapping |
+
+The success criterion is stable, correctly scoped checkpoint loading with
+quality preserved enough for the target use case, not maximizing the number of
+FP8 layers.

+L2 (`.buildkite/test-ready.yml`) and L3 (`.buildkite/test-merge.yml`) pipelines can **skip unrelated GPU jobs at upload time** based on the PR diff. This is implemented by `.buildkite/scripts/upload_pipeline.py`, which filters steps before calling `buildkite-agent pipeline upload`.
+
+#### What `source_file_dependencies` is
+
+- A **uploader-only** YAML key on a Buildkite step or group. **Buildkite does not understand it**; `upload_pipeline.py` always **removes** it from the YAML that is uploaded.
+- A list of path **prefixes** (directories or individual files). If **any** changed file in the diff equals a prefix or starts with `prefix/`, the step is kept; otherwise the step (or entire group) is **omitted** from the uploaded pipeline.
+
+#### When filtering runs
+
+| Build context | Changed files used for matching |
+| --- | --- |
+| Pull request | `git diff --name-only origin/<base>...<BUILDKITE_COMMIT>` |
+| `main` branch push | `git diff --name-only <commit>^..<commit>` |
+| Other (e.g. local dry-run, non-PR branch) | Diff cannot be resolved → **no filtering**; all steps are uploaded and `source_file_dependencies` is still stripped |
+
+Docs-only PRs are handled earlier in bootstrap (`pipeline.yml`) via skip-ci logic; `source_file_dependencies` applies only to the **uploaded** L2/L3 test pipelines.
+
+#### Where it is configured
+
+| Level | Pipeline file | Upload entry |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| L2 | `.buildkite/test-ready.yml` | `upload_pipeline.py --upload .buildkite/test-ready.yml` (from `pipeline.yml`) |
+| L3 | `.buildkite/test-merge.yml` | `upload_pipeline.py --upload .buildkite/test-merge.yml` (from `pipeline.yml`) |
+
+Steps **without** `source_file_dependencies` are always uploaded (subject to the usual label conditions: `ready` for L2, `merge-test` for L3).
+
+#### Current skip policy (L2 / L3)
+
+To balance CI cost and coverage:
+
+- **Always run** (no `source_file_dependencies`): baseline groups outside E2E Test—e.g. Simple Test, Diffusion unit tests, Engine/Model Executor, Distributed, Custom Pipeline, Entrypoints (L2), LoRA / Entrypoints (L3).
+- **Diff-gated** (`source_file_dependencies` set): **every leaf job under the E2E Test group** in `test-ready.yml` and `test-merge.yml`, regardless of queue (`mithril-h100-pool`, `gpu_1_queue`, or `gpu_4_queue`). Each step lists the smallest set of prefixes that should trigger it—typically:
+  - pytest file(s) exercised by the job (online and/or offline);
+  - model code under `vllm_omni/model_executor/models/` or `vllm_omni/diffusion/models/`;
+  - related `vllm_omni/model_executor/stage_input_processors/` and `vllm_omni/deploy/*.yaml` when applicable.
+
+Adding a new E2E step: add `source_file_dependencies` on the leaf job with those prefixes. Prefer **per-step** deps rather than a broad group-level list unless every child shares the same paths.
+
+#### YAML examples
+
+H100 E2E (kubernetes / `mithril-h100-pool`):
+
+```yaml
+      - label: "Diffusion · Qwen Image Test"
+        source_file_dependencies:
+          - tests/e2e/online_serving/test_qwen_image.py
+          - vllm_omni/diffusion/models/qwen_image/
+        commands:
+          - pytest -s -v tests/e2e/online_serving/test_qwen_image.py -m 'core_model' ...
+        agents:
+          queue: "mithril-h100-pool"
+```
+
+Docker E2E (`gpu_1_queue` / `gpu_4_queue`)—same key, same upload-time filtering:
+
+```yaml
+      - label: "TTS · Qwen3-TTS CustomVoice Test"
+        source_file_dependencies:
+          - tests/e2e/online_serving/test_qwen3_tts_customvoice.py
+          - vllm_omni/model_executor/models/qwen3_tts/
+          - vllm_omni/model_executor/stage_input_processors/qwen3_tts.py
+          - vllm_omni/deploy/qwen3_tts.yaml
+        commands:
+          - pytest -s -v tests/e2e/online_serving/test_qwen3_tts_customvoice.py ...
+        agents:
+          queue: "gpu_4_queue"
+```
+
+A **group** may also define `source_file_dependencies`; nested steps inherit filtering as a unit—the whole group is dropped if no prefix matches.
+
+#### Local dry-run
+
+```bash
+# Render filtered YAML to stdout (no upload)
+python3 .buildkite/scripts/upload_pipeline.py .buildkite/test-ready.yml
+
+# Confirm uploader-only keys are stripped
+python3 .buildkite/scripts/upload_pipeline.py .buildkite/test-merge.yml | grep source_file_dependencies
+# (no output expected)
+```
+
+On a PR build, Buildkite logs from `upload_pipeline.py` include lines such as `skip '…' (no changes under …)` for omitted steps.
+
+#### Related
+
+- Implementation: `.buildkite/scripts/upload_pipeline.py`
+- L2/L3 diff skip does **not** replace label-based triggers (`ready`, `merge-test`); it only reduces which steps appear **after** the pipeline is already scheduled.
+
+### Test helper environment variables
+
+Some shared helpers under `tests/helpers/` honor optional environment variables for local debugging. These are **not** set in CI by default.
+
+| Variable | Accepted values | Description |
+| -------- | --------------- | ----------- |
+| `VLLM_OMNI_KEEP_REQUEST_MEDIA` | `1`, `true`, `yes` (case-insensitive) | When enabled, temporary WAV files created by `tests.helpers.media.convert_audio_bytes_to_text` are **not** deleted when the pytest process exits. By default, each call writes a unique file under the system temp directory via `tempfile.mkstemp` and registers `atexit` cleanup. Use this when debugging audio output validation (Whisper transcription, keyword checks, text–audio similarity). The saved path is logged as `audio data is saved: <path>`. |
+
+Example (Linux / macOS):
+
+```bash
+export VLLM_OMNI_KEEP_REQUEST_MEDIA=1
+pytest -s -v tests/e2e/online_serving/test_qwen3_omni.py -k test_mix_to_text_audio
+```
+
+Example (Windows PowerShell):
+
+```powershell
+$env:VLLM_OMNI_KEEP_REQUEST_MEDIA = "1"
+pytest -s -v tests/e2e/online_serving/test_qwen3_omni.py -k test_mix_to_text_audio

+
+## When to Use
+
+Currently supports intra-node deployment with Mori.
+
+As noted in #1742, inter-node support will be added back in a future
+refactor.
+
+## Mechanism
+
+Uses Mori's `IOEngine` / `MemoryDesc` API for zero-copy RDMA transfers.
+
+- Data Plane: RDMA (InfiniBand/RoCE) with managed memory pool.
+- Control Plane: ZMQ for pull-request handshake and async completion.
+
+## Installation
+
+See the [Mori repository](https://github.com/ROCm/mori) for installation instructions.
+
+## Configuration
+
+Mori is configured through the new deploy-config schema (see
+[`docs/configuration/stage_configs.md`](../../../configuration/stage_configs.md)).
+Define the connector at the top level of the deploy YAML and reference it

+# Prometheus Metrics Design
+
+This document describes how vLLM-Omni exposes Prometheus metrics for multi-stage pipelines, the constraints that shaped the design, and how the pipeline-level metrics coexist with upstream vLLM per-engine metrics. This iteration covers the text and audio surface; diffusion / image / video families land in a follow-up.
+
+## Objectives
+
+- Expose pipeline-level request and latency metrics that span the full multi-stage execution (orchestrator scope).
+- Preserve all upstream vLLM per-engine metrics (`vllm:*`) for stages backed by an AR LLM engine, and reshape their `engine` label into `stage` + `replica` so multi-replica deployments gain per-replica visibility automatically.
+- Expose per-modality SLO metrics that the upstream `vllm:*` families do not capture — audio TTFP / RTF / duration / frames / streaming continuity / silent-loss.
+- Expose per-replica-edge cross-stage transfer metrics so the slack between E2E latency and the sum of per-stage `gen_time` (queueing, serialization, network) becomes attributable.
+- Keep the metrics collection overhead low enough that it does not regress TTFA or throughput.
+
+## Background
+
+### Upstream vLLM Metrics
+
+Upstream vLLM defines ~37 Prometheus metric families under the `vllm:` prefix. These are registered by `PrometheusStatLogger` and cover engine-level state: KV cache usage, running/waiting request counts, token throughput, TTFT, inter-token latency, e2e latency, and so on. They are served via the `/metrics` HTTP endpoint provided by `prometheus_fastapi_instrumentator` and the default `prometheus_client` WSGI handler.
+
+vLLM's `unregister_vllm_metrics()` function strips every `prometheus_client` collector whose `_name` attribute contains the substring `"vllm"`. This runs during engine initialization to clean up stale collectors from prior instantiations within the same process.
+
+### The Problem
+
+vLLM-Omni runs multiple engine instances (stages × replicas) within a single process, coordinated by an Orchestrator. The pipeline needs its own metrics — aggregate request counts, end-to-end latency across all stages, per-modality SLO signals, and cross-stage transfer attribution — that do not exist in upstream vLLM. All pipeline-level metrics use the `vllm:omni_` prefix to distinguish them from upstream per-engine metrics. At import time (see `vllm_omni/patch.py`) we replace `unregister_vllm_metrics()` with a scoped version that still strips upstream `vllm:*` collectors before each new `PrometheusStatLogger` registers (so multi-engine processes don't crash on duplicate registration), but preserves anything prefixed `vllm:omni_` / `vllm_omni`.
+
+Upstream per-engine metrics retain the `vllm:` prefix but are now registered by `OmniPrometheusStatLogger`, a thin subclass of upstream's `PrometheusStatLogger` that reshapes the single `engine` label into a `stage` + `replica` pair (see "OmniPrometheusStatLogger wrap" below).

+
+### Data Flow
+
+There are four independent paths for metric collection.
+
+**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.
+
+**Path 2: Audio modality metrics (`vllm:omni_audio_*`)**
+
+`OmniModalityMetrics` registers seven audio families with `{model_name, stage, replica}` (plus an extra `threshold_ms` / `reason` label on the two extra-cardinality Counters). Three observation sites:
+
+- `observe_modality_at_finalize(...)` — called from `omni_base._process_single_result` inside the existing `e2e_done` finalize guard. For `output_type == "audio"` it emits `audio_frames_total`, `audio_duration_s`, `audio_rtf` (or `audio_skipped_requests_total{reason="no_audio_data"}` when no audio was produced). Sample rate is resolved from `engine_outputs.multimodal_output` via `definitions.resolve_audio_sample_rate(...)` (fallback chain mirrors `serving_chat.py`'s audio response path).
+- `observe_audio_first_packet(...)` — called from the OpenAI SSE audio branch in `serving_chat.py` on the first audio packet for a request. The once-per-request guard is held by `ClientRequestState.first_audio_ts`. The `request_arrival_ts` anchor is stored in `ClientRequestState` by `async_omni.generate()`, computed at request entry.
+- `observe_audio_streaming_finalize(...)` — called from `serving_chat.py` after the streaming chunk loop exhausts. It runs the per-chunk player simulation from `vllm_omni/benchmarks/audio_continuity.py` to compute the worst-case underrun and emits `audio_underrun_s` plus (when the request stayed below the threshold) `audio_continuity_ok_total{threshold_ms}`. Per-chunk PCM byte counts and arrival timestamps are recorded by the same audio branch that updates `first_audio_ts`.
+
+**Path 3: Cross-stage transfer metrics (`vllm:omni_transfer_*`)**
+
+`OmniTransferMetrics` registers four Histogram families with `{model_name, from_stage, from_replica, to_stage, to_replica}` labels. Each observation corresponds to one physical transfer hop (one chunk between adjacent stages), not the per-request accumulated total — so the histograms track per-transfer distribution.
+
+The hook lives in `OrchestratorAggregator.record_transfer_tx` and `record_transfer_rx`. After the existing `TransferEdgeStats` accumulation, the aggregator calls `_emit_transfer_tx` / `_emit_transfer_rx`. Those:
+
+1. Resolve `from_replica` / `to_replica` via a `replica_resolver` callback supplied by `async_omni.py`. The resolver delegates to `stage_pool.get_bound_replica_id(request_id)` — i.e. the orchestrator's existing sticky-routing binding is the source of truth.
+2. Convert the underlying `_ms` accumulators to seconds and call the `_s`-suffixed observe methods on `OmniTransferMetrics`.
+
+Defensive fail-safe: if `transfer_emitter` or `replica_resolver` is missing, or the resolver returns `None` for either side, the emit is skipped silently (the underlying `TransferEdgeStats` accumulation is unaffected).
+
+**Path 4: Per-engine metrics (`vllm:*`, stage/replica wrap)**
+
+The Orchestrator instantiates `OmniPrometheusStatLogger` (a thin subclass of upstream `vllm.v1.metrics.loggers.PrometheusStatLogger`) and feeds it scheduler stats and iteration stats after processing each batch of engine outputs. This populates the standard ~37 vLLM metric families (TTFT, ITL, TPOT, KV cache usage, etc.) using the same upstream code path — but with the `engine` label reshaped into `stage` + `replica` so multi-replica deployments produce distinct series per replica. See the next section for the wrap mechanics.
+
+### Shared State Between Threads
+
+The Orchestrator runs in a background thread. The API server (OmniBase) runs in the asyncio event loop thread. `OmniRequestCounter` bridges them — a plain Python object with an `int` field. The Orchestrator increments/decrements it; the entrypoint reads it for gauge updates. No lock is needed because the counter is advisory (a stale read by one Prometheus scrape interval is acceptable). It is created by `AsyncOmniEngine.__init__()` and passed to the Orchestrator at construction time.
+
+### Metric Registration and Lifecycle
+
+All `vllm:omni_*` collectors are registered once when their owning class (`OmniPrometheusMetrics` / `OmniModalityMetrics` / `OmniTransferMetrics`) is imported. Per-`(stage, replica)` labels are bound lazily on first observation to avoid registering label sets for combinations that never produce data.
+
+The `prometheus_client` default registry holds all collectors. FastAPI's `/metrics` endpoint serves the default registry, so `vllm:omni_*` and the wrapped `vllm:*` metrics appear in the same scrape response alongside `http_*` and `process_*` metrics from the instrumentator and the Python client runtime.
+
+## OmniPrometheusStatLogger Wrap
+
+Upstream `PrometheusStatLogger.__init__` hard-codes `labelnames = ["model_name", "engine"]` as a local variable, references it across ~37 metric-family construction sites, and uses the `engine` label value in five different `.labels()` call shapes (kwarg with int engine, kwarg with str engine, positional with str engine in the middle, plus a `metrics_info["engine"] = str(...)` dict pattern). To reshape `engine` into `stage` + `replica` without forking the entire upstream `__init__`, the wrap uses three coordinated mechanisms:
+
+1. **Class-level metric class slot overrides.** `OmniPrometheusStatLogger` overrides `_gauge_cls`, `_counter_cls`, `_histogram_cls` (which upstream calls via `self._gauge_cls(...)` etc.) with `_RelabelGauge` / `_RelabelCounter` / `_RelabelHistogram` wrapper classes. These intercept the `labelnames` kwarg at metric family creation time and replace `engine` with `("stage", "replica")`.
+2. **Property descriptor for `per_engine_labelvalues`.** Upstream builds `self.per_engine_labelvalues = {idx: [model_name, str(idx)]}` inside `__init__` and then captures it into a local variable for `create_metric_per_engine` calls. By making `per_engine_labelvalues` a Python property on the subclass, the setter intercepts upstream's assignment and rewrites each 2-tuple into a 3-tuple `[model_name, stage, replica]` using the `stage_replica_map` supplied at construction time. The captured local then sees the rewritten dict.
+3. **Override of `.labels()` on the wrapper classes.** For the five call sites that pass `engine` directly (kwarg or positional, int or str), `_RelabelMixin.labels()` translates the engine value back to `(stage, replica)` via a process-level `_ENGINE_INDEX_MAP` populated by `OmniPrometheusStatLogger.__init__`. This handles `gauge_engine_sleep_state.labels(engine=idx, ...)`, `counter_request_success_base.labels(model_name, str(idx), str(reason))`, `info_gauge.labels(**metrics_info)`, etc.
+
+The three sub-helpers that upstream `PrometheusStatLogger.__init__` constructs (`spec_decoding_prom` / `kv_connector_prom` / `perf_metrics_prom`) use their own `_counter_cls` / `_gauge_cls` / `_histogram_cls` slots and would otherwise build families with the raw 2-element labelnames. `_OmniPerfMetricsProm` / `_OmniSpecDecodingProm` / `_OmniKVConnectorProm` subclass each helper to route the same relabel mixin through their internal family construction.
+
+The `Orchestrator` constructs `stage_replica_map` from the static `stage_pools` configuration at startup:
+
+```python
+stage_replica_map = {
+    flat_idx: (str(stage_id), str(replica_id))
+    for flat_idx, (stage_id, replica_id) in enumerate(
+        (s, r)
+        for s, pool in enumerate(stage_pools)
+        for r in range(pool.num_replicas)
+    )
+}
+```
+
+A reverse map `(stage_id, replica_id) -> flat_idx` is maintained on the Orchestrator so the per-replica `record(engine_idx=...)` call site can look up the right flat index.
+
+> Dynamic add/remove of replicas at runtime is intentionally out of scope — the upstream `PrometheusStatLogger` materializes per-engine_idx child metrics at init time, and supporting hot-add would require non-trivial intervention into upstream's per-family child dictionaries.
+
+## Gating: `--log-stats`
+
+All metrics — both the 15 `vllm:omni_*` families and the ~65 upstream `vllm:*` wrap families — are gated by the user's `--log-stats` CLI flag (default off). The flag is plumbed from `OmniBase.__init__(log_stats=...)` through `AsyncOmniEngine` to the stage-spawn helpers and to the three Prometheus metric classes (`OmniPrometheusMetrics` / `OmniModalityMetrics` / `OmniTransferMetrics`), and is forwarded to `Orchestrator._init_metrics_state(...)`.
+
+Behavior with `--log-stats=off` (default):
+
+- The three `Omni*Metrics` classes register their module-level Gauge / Counter / Histogram families at import time (prometheus_client requires up-front registration), but each `observe / inc / set` method early-returns. 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.
+
+Behavior with `--log-stats=on`: all metric paths fire normally; the orchestrator's per-replica recording is bounded only by `OmniSchedulerMixin.make_stats()`'s per-scheduler 1 Hz throttle (see next section).
+
+The overhead with the flag on is small enough that an A/B benchmark on Qwen3-Omni-30B single replica (30 sequential audio requests) showed a mean latency delta of +0.6% (Welch's t = 0.318, n=30, not statistically significant at α=0.05); the `/metrics` line count drops from 1358 to 124 lines when the flag is off.
+
+## Throttling: `make_stats()` Override
+
+Upstream vLLM's `Scheduler.make_stats()` runs on every AR generation step, returning a SchedulerStats object for the orchestrator. Under vLLM's architecture, this is fine. But since vLLM-Omni requires that the object be serialized and transferred over ZMQ, receiving a SchedulerStats object on every step can introduce unacceptable overhead to the system.
+
+`OmniSchedulerMixin.make_stats()` (in `vllm_omni/core/sched/omni_scheduler_mixin.py`) throttles stats emission to at most once per second **per scheduler** — i.e. per `(stage, replica)` since each replica owns its own scheduler instance. Between intervals it returns `None`, which the engine core skips serializing. This keeps gauges fresh enough for Prometheus scrapes (typically 15-30s intervals) while eliminating the per-step overhead.
+
+The orchestrator side does not add its own throttle on top: the per-replica recording loop gates only on `raw_outputs.scheduler_stats is not None` (i.e. this replica's scheduler passed its own 1 Hz gate). A previous global `_last_stats_ts` on the orchestrator was removed because it starved every replica other than the first to emit within each second.
+
+## Metric Definitions
+
+### Pipeline (4)
+
+| Metric | Type | Labels | Description |
+|--------|------|--------|-------------|
+| `vllm:omni_num_requests_running` | Gauge | `model_name` | Requests currently executing across all stages |
+| `vllm:omni_num_requests_waiting` | Gauge | `model_name` | Requests queued but not yet scheduled |
+| `vllm:omni_requests_success_total` | Counter | `model_name`, `finished_reason` | Total requests by completion reason ({stop, length, abort, ...}); aborts cover client-disconnect / cancellation paths in addition to upstream `FinishReason.ABORT` |
+| `vllm:omni_e2e_request_latency_s` | Histogram | `model_name` | Pipeline-global end-to-end latency in seconds |
+
+### Audio (7)
+
+Labels: `{model_name, stage, replica}` plus the listed extra label.
+
+| Metric | Type | Extra label | Description |
+|--------|------|-------------|-------------|
+| `vllm:omni_audio_ttfp_s` | Histogram | — | Time from request arrival to first audio packet/frame |
+| `vllm:omni_audio_duration_s` | Histogram | — | Audio content duration (`audio_frames / sample_rate`) |
+| `vllm:omni_audio_rtf` | Histogram | — | Real-time factor `stage_gen_time_s / audio_duration_s` (SLO `< 1`); uses `RTF_BUCKETS` |
+| `vllm:omni_audio_frames_total` | Counter | — | Cumulative audio frames generated |
+| `vllm:omni_audio_underrun_s` | Histogram | — | Per-request worst-case player deficit; `> 0` indicates listener heard silent gaps |
+| `vllm:omni_audio_continuity_ok_total` | Counter | `threshold_ms` | Incremented when the request's worst underrun stayed below `threshold_ms` |
+| `vllm:omni_audio_skipped_requests_total` | Counter | `reason` | Silent-loss counter — code2wav rejected malformed codec input and returned `200 OK` with empty audio |
+
+### Cross-stage transfer (4)
+
+Labels: `{model_name, from_stage, from_replica, to_stage, to_replica}`.
+
+| Metric | Type | Description |
+|--------|------|-------------|
+| `vllm:omni_transfer_size_bytes` | Histogram | Per-transfer payload size in bytes |
+| `vllm:omni_transfer_tx_s` | Histogram | Sender-side time (serialize + submit to connector) |
+| `vllm:omni_transfer_rx_s` | Histogram | Receiver-side time (recv + deserialize) |
+| `vllm:omni_transfer_in_flight_s` | Histogram | Network in-flight time (TX done → RX recv start) |
+
+### LLM stage-level (wrapped `vllm:*`)
+
+After the wrap, every upstream `vllm:*` family — TTFT, ITL, TPOT, e2e latency, KV cache usage, scheduler running/waiting, request success counts, etc. — carries `{model_name, stage, replica}` labels. For the full upstream catalog see [the vLLM docs](https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm/blob/main/docs/usage/metrics.md); note that metrics depending on features unsupported in vLLM-Omni (e.g. speculative decoding, LoRA) will not be available.
+
+## Naming Convention
+
+- All time-bearing metrics use the `_s` suffix (values in seconds). Two bucket families are used:
+  - `SECONDS_BUCKETS` (0.05 s – 300 s) for e2e / generation / TTFP style values.
+  - `SECONDS_FAST_BUCKETS` (0.001 s – 60 s) for fine-grained cross-stage transfer and audio-underrun values that need millisecond-level resolution.
+- Counters use the `_total` suffix (auto-appended by `prometheus_client`).
+- Sizes use the `_bytes` suffix.
+- All omni-specific families are prefixed `vllm:omni_`. The upstream `unregister_vllm_metrics()` function is monkey-patched to a scoped version that still strips upstream `vllm:*` collectors (so multi-engine init within one process does not crash on duplicate registration) but preserves anything prefixed `vllm:omni_` / `vllm_omni`.
+
+## Logging vs. Prometheus
+
+`OrchestratorAggregator` (in `vllm_omni/metrics/stats.py`) is the logging-oriented metrics path. It collects detailed per-request, per-stage, and per-transfer statistics and prints formatted tables to the `INFO` log. This is designed for development and debugging — individual request traces, transfer bandwidth, inter-stage timing.
+
+`OmniPrometheusMetrics` / `OmniModalityMetrics` / `OmniTransferMetrics` form the Prometheus-oriented path. They record aggregate counters, gauges, and histograms suitable for time-series monitoring and alerting. Both paths share the same source data (`StageRequestStats`, `TransferEdgeStats`) — `OrchestratorAggregator.record_transfer_tx/rx` in particular calls both the existing accumulator code and the Prometheus emit hook in the same method body. The two consumption models can run simultaneously without coupling.
+
+The separation follows upstream vLLM's pattern of `LoggingStatLogger` vs. `PrometheusStatLogger` — same underlying data, different consumption models.

+# Production Metrics
+
+vLLM-Omni exposes Prometheus metrics via the `/metrics` endpoint on the OpenAI-compatible API server. This page covers the text and audio surface; diffusion / image / video metrics are tracked in a follow-up PR.
+
+```bash
+vllm-omni serve Qwen/Qwen3-Omni-30B-A3B-Instruct --port 8000 --log-stats
+curl http://localhost:8000/metrics
+```
+
+**`--log-stats` is required to populate metric data.** Without the flag, the endpoint still returns `200 OK` but the upstream `vllm:*` wrap is not registered at all, and the 15 `vllm:omni_*` families are registered as placeholders with no data written to them. This keeps the runtime cost essentially zero for deployments that don't need monitoring. With the flag, all ~80 families populate.
+
+## Metric Namespaces
+
+| Prefix | Source | Present when |
+|--------|--------|--------------|
+| `vllm:omni_` | vLLM-Omni orchestrator / audio modality / cross-stage transfer | Pipeline-dependent |
+| `vllm:` | Upstream vLLM engine, wrapped by `OmniPrometheusStatLogger` to expose `{stage, replica}` | Pipeline includes an LLM (AR) stage |
+| `http_` / `process_` | Uvicorn / Python runtime | Always |
+
+## Pipeline-Level Metrics (`vllm:omni_`)
+
+Defined in `vllm_omni/metrics/prometheus.py`. Track request lifecycle across the full multi-stage pipeline.
+
+### Request counts
+
+| Metric | Type | Labels | Description |
+|--------|------|--------|-------------|
+| `vllm:omni_num_requests_running` | Gauge | `model_name` | Pipeline-global in-flight requests (dispatched to engine, not yet finalized) |
+| `vllm:omni_num_requests_waiting` | Gauge | `model_name` | Requests waiting in the Orchestrator queue |
+| `vllm:omni_requests_success_total` | Counter | `model_name`, `finished_reason` | Total requests by completion reason. `finished_reason` ∈ {`stop`, `length`, `abort`, ...} mirroring upstream `vllm:request_success_total`; aborts cover client disconnect / cancellation paths in addition to upstream `FinishReason.ABORT` |
+
+### Latency
+
+| Metric | Type | Labels | Description |
+|--------|------|--------|-------------|
+| `vllm:omni_e2e_request_latency_s` | Histogram | `model_name` | Pipeline-global end-to-end request latency in seconds |
+
+## Audio Modality Metrics (`vllm:omni_`)
+
+Emitted at request finalize, except for `audio_ttfp_s` (streaming-hook at the first audio packet) and `audio_underrun_s` / `audio_continuity_ok_total` (streaming finalize, after the chunk stream is exhausted). All carry `{model_name, stage, replica}` plus the listed extra label.
+
+| Metric | Type | Extra label | Description |
+|--------|------|-------------|-------------|
+| `vllm:omni_audio_ttfp_s` | Histogram | — | Time from request arrival to first audio packet/frame |
+| `vllm:omni_audio_duration_s` | Histogram | — | Audio content duration (`audio_frames / sample_rate`) |
+| `vllm:omni_audio_rtf` | Histogram | — | Real-time factor (`stage_gen_time_s / audio_duration_s`); streaming TTS SLO red line `< 1`; uses `RTF_BUCKETS` |
+| `vllm:omni_audio_frames_total` | Counter | — | Cumulative audio frame count; throughput via `rate()` |
+| `vllm:omni_audio_underrun_s` | Histogram | — | Per-request worst-case player deficit; `> 0` indicates listener heard silent gaps |
+| `vllm:omni_audio_continuity_ok_total` | Counter | `threshold_ms` | Incremented when the request's worst underrun stayed below `threshold_ms` |
+| `vllm:omni_audio_skipped_requests_total` | Counter | `reason` | Silent-loss counter — code2wav rejected malformed codec input and returned `200 OK` with empty audio |
+
+The continuity math comes from `vllm_omni/benchmarks/audio_continuity.py::compute_continuity_stats` so the server-side observation aligns with the bench-side definition.
+
+## Cross-Stage Transfer Metrics (`vllm:omni_`)
+
+Per-physical-transfer histograms tracking the data hop between adjacent stages. Labels `{model_name, from_stage, from_replica, to_stage, to_replica}` let dashboards attribute latency to specific replica edges. `from_replica` / `to_replica` are resolved from the orchestrator's sticky-routing binding (`stage_pool.get_bound_replica_id(request_id)`), so no extra plumbing through `TransferEdgeStats` is needed.
+
+| Metric | Type | Description |
+|--------|------|-------------|
+| `vllm:omni_transfer_size_bytes` | Histogram | Per-transfer payload size in bytes |
+| `vllm:omni_transfer_tx_s` | Histogram | Sender-side time (serialize + submit to connector) |
+| `vllm:omni_transfer_rx_s` | Histogram | Receiver-side time (recv + deserialize) |
+| `vllm:omni_transfer_in_flight_s` | Histogram | Network in-flight time (TX done → RX recv start) |
+
+## vLLM Engine Metrics (`vllm:`)
+
+When the pipeline includes an LLM stage, the upstream vLLM engine exposes its full set of ~37 metric families under the `vllm:` prefix.
+
+vLLM-Omni wraps the upstream `vllm.v1.metrics.loggers.PrometheusStatLogger` with `OmniPrometheusStatLogger` so that the original `engine` single label is reshaped into `stage` + `replica`. Every `vllm:*` family — TTFT, ITL, TPOT, e2e latency, KV cache usage, scheduler running/waiting, request success counts, etc. — therefore gains per-`(stage, replica)` visibility automatically. No omni-side duplicate is needed for the text path.
+
+```text
+# Before wrap:
+vllm:num_requests_running{model_name="...", engine="1"}              3.0
+
+# After wrap:
+vllm:num_requests_running{model_name="...", stage="1", replica="0"}  2.0
+vllm:num_requests_running{model_name="...", stage="1", replica="1"}  1.0
+```
+
+For the full list of upstream metrics, see [the vLLM docs](https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm/blob/main/docs/usage/metrics.md).
+
+## Metric Availability by Pipeline Type
+
+| Metric group | Multi-stage LLM (Qwen3-Omni) |
+|---|---|
+| `vllm:omni_` request tracking + latency | With `--log-stats` |
+| `vllm:omni_` audio modality | With `--log-stats`, if pipeline has a talker stage |
+| `vllm:omni_` transfer | With `--log-stats`, if pipeline has ≥ 2 stages |
+| `vllm:` engine metrics (per `(stage, replica)`) | With `--log-stats` |
+| `vllm:` MFU metrics | With `--log-stats --enable-mfu-metrics` |
+
+## Naming Convention
+
+- All time-bearing metrics use the `_s` suffix (values in seconds). Buckets are `SECONDS_BUCKETS` for e2e / generation-style values and `SECONDS_FAST_BUCKETS` (1 ms → 60 s) for the fine-grained transfer and audio-underrun values.
+- Counters use the `_total` suffix (auto-appended by `prometheus_client`).
+- Sizes use the `_bytes` suffix.
+- All omni-specific families are prefixed `vllm:omni_`. The upstream `unregister_vllm_metrics()` function is monkey-patched (see `vllm_omni/patch.py`) to a scoped version that still strips upstream `vllm:*` collectors so multi-engine init within one process does not crash on duplicate registration, but preserves anything prefixed `vllm:omni_` / `vllm_omni`.
+- Text and audio first-output use distinct families (`vllm:time_to_first_token_seconds` reused from upstream for text; `vllm:omni_audio_ttfp_s` for audio) rather than a single metric with a `modality` label.

+# Speech-To-Video
+
+Source <https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm-omni/tree/main/examples/online_serving/speech_to_video>.
+
+This example demonstrates how to deploy the Wan2.2 speech-to-video (S2V) model for online video generation using vLLM-Omni.
+
+## Supported Models
+
+| Model | Model ID |
+|-------|----------|
+| Wan2.2 S2V (14B) | `Wan-AI/Wan2.2-S2V-14B` |
+
+## Start Server
+
+### Basic Start
+
+```bash
+VLLM_WORKER_MULTIPROC_METHOD=spawn \
+vllm serve Wan-AI/Wan2.2-S2V-14B --omni \
+  --model-class-name WanS2VPipeline \
+  --tensor-parallel-size 2 \
+  --flow-shift 3.0 \
+  --vae-use-slicing --vae-use-tiling \
+  --cache-backend cache_dit \
+  --port 8091
+```
+
+### Start with Script
+
+```bash
+bash run_server.sh
+```
+
+The script allows overriding:
+- `MODEL` (default: `Wan-AI/Wan2.2-S2V-14B`)
+- `PORT` (default: `8091`)
+- `FLOW_SHIFT` (default: `3.0`)
+- `TP` (default: `2`)
+- `CACHE_BACKEND` (default: `cache_dit`)
+
+### Start with 4 GPUs
+
+```bash
+TP=4 bash run_server.sh
+```
+
+## API Endpoints
+
+The server provides OpenAI-compatible video generation endpoints:
+
+- `POST /v1/videos`: create a video generation job (async)
+- `POST /v1/videos/sync`: generate a video and return raw bytes (sync, for benchmarks)
+- `GET /v1/videos/{video_id}`: retrieve the current job status and metadata
+- `GET /v1/videos`: list stored video jobs
+- `GET /v1/videos/{video_id}/content`: download the generated video file
+- `DELETE /v1/videos/{video_id}`: delete the job and any stored output
+
+## Sync API (Recommended for Testing)
+
+`POST /v1/videos/sync` blocks until generation completes and returns the raw
+video bytes (`video/mp4`) directly in the response body.
+
+```bash
+bash run_curl_speech_to_video.sh
+```
+
+## Async Job API
+
+`POST /v1/videos` creates an asynchronous job and returns immediately.
+
+```bash
+no_proxy=127.0.0.1 \
+create_response=$(curl -sS -X POST http://127.0.0.1:8091/v1/videos \
+  -H "Accept: application/json" \
+  -F "prompt=A person singing" \
+  -F 'image_reference={"image_url": "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Wan-Video/Wan2.2/main/examples/Five%20Hundred%20Miles.png"}' \
+  -F 'audio_reference={"audio_url": "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Wan-Video/Wan2.2/main/examples/Five%20Hundred%20Miles.MP3"}' \
+  -F "width=832" -F "height=480" \
+  -F "num_inference_steps=40" \
+  -F "guidance_scale=4.5" \
+  -F "fps=16")
+
+video_id=$(echo "$create_response" | jq -r '.id')
+
+# Poll until complete
+while true; do
+  status=$(curl -s "http://127.0.0.1:8091/v1/videos/${video_id}" | jq -r '.status')
+  if [ "$status" = "completed" ]; then
+    break
+  fi
+  if [ "$status" = "failed" ]; then
+    echo "Video generation failed"
+    exit 1
+  fi
+  sleep 2
+done
+
+# Download
+curl -L "http://127.0.0.1:8091/v1/videos/${video_id}/content" -o s2v_output.mp4
+```
+
+## Request Parameters
+
+| Parameter | Type | Default | Description |
+|-----------|------|---------|-------------|
+| `prompt` | str | - | Text description of the desired video |
+| `image_reference` | JSON str | - | Image reference: `{"image_url": "..."}` — supports HTTP(s) URLs or base64 data URLs |
+| `audio_reference` | JSON str | - | Audio reference: `{"audio_url": "..."}` — supports HTTP(s) URLs or base64 data URLs |
+| `width` | int | None | Video width in pixels |
+| `height` | int | None | Video height in pixels |
+| `fps` | int | None | Output video frame rate |
+| `num_inference_steps` | int | None | Number of denoising steps (40 recommended) |
+| `guidance_scale` | float | None | CFG guidance scale |
+| `seed` | int | None | Random seed for reproducibility |
+
+## Notes
+
+- S2V requires both a reference image (`image_reference`) and an audio reference
+  (`audio_reference`). The generated video will show a person matching the reference
+  image with lip movements synchronized to the audio.
+- `audio_reference` accepts a JSON string: `{"audio_url": "..."}` where the URL can be:
+  - An HTTP/HTTPS URL (e.g., `https://example.com/audio.mp3`)
+  - A base64 data URL (e.g., `data:audio/mp3;base64,...`)
+- `--model-class-name WanS2VPipeline` is required on the server to select the
+  S2V pipeline (distinct from the T2V/I2V pipelines).
+- `--cache-backend cache_dit` enables DiT caching for ~2x speedup on cached steps.
+- Audio is muxed into the output MP4 automatically.
+- Always pass `fps=16` to ensure correct video/audio alignment.

+The bundled `qwen3_tts.yaml` ships stage 1 (Code2Wav) at `max_num_seqs: 10`, tuned for Base voice cloning: stage-1 lifetimes are long (~3 s/req), so admitting up to 10 concurrent codec sequences lets requests progress in parallel in the scheduler — ~2× TTFA p95 at c=4 / c=8 (1× H100, 1.7B-Base, seed-tts) at an 8–12 % audio-throughput cost.

+# vLLM-Omni Failure Mode Injection Scenarios and Expected Behavior Matrix
+
+## Background and Goals
+
+The online serving pipeline of vLLM-Omni can be abstracted as: `Serve` (service entry process) -> `Engine` (model orchestration unit) -> `Worker` (execution process) -> `GPU` (compute resource).
+
+- `Serve` provides external APIs, accepts requests, and manages lifecycle.
+- `Engine` handles request scheduling and inference orchestration; the number and organization of engines can vary by model type.
+- `Worker` performs concrete model computation, usually bound to underlying GPU resources.
+- `GPU` is the resource layer that ultimately carries inference compute and memory usage.

+The diagram above shows an abstract relationship. Omni models and Diffusion models share the same hierarchy; differences mainly come from engine decomposition, worker count, and scheduling strategy.
+
+In real customer environments, the system will inevitably encounter accidental operations or environmental disturbances, such as unintended process termination, container/node jitter, or short-term resource contention. From the system perspective, many of these events map to two fault categories: "process receives abnormal signals" or "GPU memory is squeezed." For example, pressing `Ctrl+C` essentially sends a `SIGINT` signal to the `serve` process; running `kill -15 <pid>` maps to graceful termination via `SIGTERM`; running `kill -9 <pid>` maps to forced termination via `SIGKILL`; when `docker kill` is executed or a Pod is deleted, the container runtime usually sends `SIGKILL`.
+
+This document currently covers two core failure modes, and the system is expected to show predictable and observable behavior under each mode:
+
+- **Failure Mode 1: Process receives abnormal signals (`SIGINT` / `SIGTERM` / `SIGKILL`)**  
+  Focus on three aspects: whether processes exit as expected and complete cleanup, whether requests fail fast or connections are interrupted, and whether GPU resources are eventually fully released with no residue.
+- **Failure Mode 2: OOM (occupy all free GPU memory via an extra process)**  
+  Focus on two aspects: whether service health degrades to the expected state (for example, `503`), and whether requests fail within an acceptable time without hanging.
+
+More failure modes (for example, network jitter and network interruption) will be added in future iterations to improve end-to-end reliability validation coverage.
+
+> Note: independent fault injection on the `engine` component is not covered in the current version and will be added gradually in future versions.

+|------|----------------------------|----------|----------|
+| No load | Send `SIGKILL` to Worker | Worker process is killed immediately; main service detects child-process loss and turns unavailable; API enters stable 5xx |  |
+| No load | Send `SIGTERM` to Worker | Worker exits after receiving termination signal; main service is marked unavailable; API enters stable 5xx |  |
+| No load | Send `SIGKILL` to serve main process | serve main process exits instantly; request connections are interrupted; related child processes are cleaned up with no residue; GPU memory is released quickly | [#3725](https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm-omni/issues/3725) <br>[#43060](https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm/issues/43060) |
+| No load | Send `SIGTERM` to serve main process | serve enters graceful shutdown and stops serving; then exits and completes cleanup; GPU memory is released |  |
+| No load | Send `SIGINT` to serve main process (equivalent to `Ctrl+C`) | Triggers serve shutdown path; service stops responding and becomes unavailable; related child processes exit and resources are released |  |
+| No load | Send `SIGKILL` to all related processes | All related processes terminate immediately; service becomes unavailable at once; no residual processes remain; GPU memory is released quickly |  |
+| No load | Send `SIGTERM` to all related processes | All processes enter exit flow and complete shutdown; service becomes unavailable; resource release is completed |  |
+| Under load | Send `SIGKILL` to Worker | In-flight requests are hard interrupted (5xx/connection drop); main service becomes unavailable | [#3683](https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm-omni/issues/3683) |
+| Under load | Send `SIGTERM` to Worker | In-flight requests are canceled or fail fast; main service becomes unavailable |  |
+| Under load | Send `SIGKILL` to serve main process | serve is hard-killed and current connections are interrupted; in-flight requests fail; after cleanup there are no residual processes and GPU memory is released | [#3683](https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm-omni/issues/3683) |
+| Under load | Send `SIGTERM` to serve main process | serve stops accepting new requests and executes shutdown flow; in-flight requests fail; no residue remains and GPU memory is released | [#3683](https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm-omni/issues/3683) |
+| Under load | Send `SIGINT` to serve main process (equivalent to `Ctrl+C`) | `Ctrl+C`-style serve shutdown; in-flight requests fail (5xx/connection interruption); service unavailable; after exit there is no residue and GPU memory is released | [#3683](https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm-omni/issues/3683) |
+| Under load | Send `SIGKILL` to all related processes | All processes terminate instantly; all in-flight requests fail; service becomes unavailable immediately; GPU memory is released quickly |  |
+| Under load | Send `SIGTERM` to all related processes | All processes exit gracefully; in-flight requests fail; service unavailable; GPU memory is released | [#3683](https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm-omni/issues/3683) |
+| OOM | Occupy all free GPU memory via an extra process | After OOM injection process starts, GPU memory is continuously saturated; service enters unavailable/degraded state and health check drops to 503; different request types (chat/speech, etc.) fail fast within a fixed time and return 500 (no hanging) | [#4285](https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm-omni/issues/4285) |
+

+### How this maps to the matrix
+
+- This log corresponds to the `Send SIGTERM to serve main process` scenario in the matrix.
+- The `root-kill ... signal=SIGTERM` line confirms the fault injection action is applied as expected.
+- The sequence from `Shutting down Orchestrator` to stage-level `Shutdown complete` and `Stage ... shut down` matches the expected graceful shutdown path and child-process cleanup behavior described in the matrix.

+### Faster FP8 GEMM on Blackwell (quack)
+
+On Blackwell (SM 100+), vLLM runs FP8 linears through the FlashInfer kernel, which
+applies the bias as a separate kernel after the GEMM. On the small GEMMs in video
+DiTs this bias add is a significant overhead. Installing the optional `quack` kernel
+lets vLLM-Omni fuse `alpha * (A @ B) + bias` into a single CuteDSL GEMM, recovering
+that overhead (e.g. HunyuanVideo-1.5 FP8 goes from slower-than-BF16 to faster).
+
+```bash
+# CUDA 12.9
+pip install vllm-omni[quack]
+
+# CUDA 13.x
+pip install 'quack-kernels[cu13]' --extra-index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/cu130
+```
+
+It is enabled automatically once installed (no flag needed) and is **Blackwell-only**:
+on Hopper/Ada the CUTLASS FP8 kernel already fuses bias, so quack is not used there.
+Set `VLLM_OMNI_USE_QUACK_FP8=0` to force the FlashInfer path. If `quack-kernels` is
+not installed, FP8 still works — it just keeps the unfused FlashInfer path.
+
+#### Compile cache and warmup
+
+quack JIT-compiles its kernel once per distinct GEMM shape (tens of seconds, longer
+the first time across all autotuned configs). The compiled `.o` files are cached on
+disk and reused on later runs, so this is a one-time cost — **not** per request.
+
+vLLM-Omni points that cache at `~/.cache/vllm_omni/quack` (override with
+`QUACK_CACHE_DIR`) instead of quack's default under `/tmp`, so it survives restarts.
+In containers, set `QUACK_CACHE_DIR` to a mounted/persistent path — or bake it into
+the image — so the first cold start does not recompile. The engine's startup dummy
+run already exercises the kernels, so with a warm cache the first real request is fast.
+
+To pre-warm specific shapes (e.g. at image build time):
+
+```python
+from vllm_omni.quantization.quack_fp8 import warmup_quack_fp8
+# (M, K, N) per linear; M = number of tokens for your resolution/frame count
+warmup_quack_fp8([(14040, 2048, 6144), (14040, 2048, 2048)])
+```
+
+> The PyPI package is `quack-kernels` (imported as `quack`); plain `pip install
+> quack` is an unrelated statistics library. Requires CUDA 12.9+ and Python 3.12.

+### VAE Patch Parallelism
+
+[VAE Patch Parallelism](https://docs.vllm.ai/projects/vllm-omni/en/latest/user_guide/diffusion/parallelism/vae_patch_parallel.html) splits Bagel VAE **decode/encode** tiles across multiple GPUs on the **DiT stage**, reducing **per-GPU peak memory during VAE decode**. Use it when high-resolution `text2img` or `img2img` hits VAE OOM or large decode spikes.
+
+**Bagel-specific notes:**
+
+- Implemented in `BagelPipeline` via `DistributedAutoEncoder` (DiT stage only).
+- **Single-stage** is the simplest path: one DiT process with TP + VAE patch parallel.
+- **Two-stage**: enable on **stage 1 (DiT)** only; stage 0 (Thinker) keeps encoder-only `VAEEncoder` and does not use VAE patch parallel.
+- You need a DiT `world_size` ≥ `vae_patch_parallel_size` (typically `tensor_parallel_size=2` on that stage). VAE PP reuses the DiT process group; it is not a standalone second-GPU VAE worker.
+
+**Single-stage via deploy YAML** (recommended for `end2end.py`):

+| `vae_use_tiling` | Enable spatial tiling (auto-enabled when `vae_patch_parallel_size > 1`) |

 #### Hybrid Sharded Data Parallel (HSDP)
 
 For larger Bagel deployments on multiple GPUs, you can enable HSDP (Hybrid Sharded Data Parallel) by modifying the stage configuration (for example, [`bagel.yaml`](../../../vllm_omni/deploy/bagel.yaml)). HSDP shards transformer weights across GPUs to reduce per-GPU memory usage.

+# Lance (ByteDance) — offline inference
+
+[Lance](https://huggingface.co/bytedance-research/Lance) is a 3B unified
+autoregressive + diffusion multimodal model on a Qwen2.5-VL backbone. It is
+**BAGEL-lineage** (ByteDance Mixture-of-Transformers): the released `Lance_3B`
+checkpoint uses the same `*_moe_gen` MoT weight layout as BAGEL, so vLLM-Omni
+implements it by reusing the BAGEL transformer core and specializing only the
+ViT (Qwen2.5-VL vision), the VAE (Wan2.2) and the checkpoint layout.
+
+This example covers all six Lance modalities from the upstream HF model card:
+`t2i`, `t2v`, `image_edit`, `video_edit`, `x2t_image` (image understanding) and
+`x2t_video` (video understanding).
+
+## Hardware
+
+Single NVIDIA GPU with 16 GB+ VRAM in BF16 (we test on B300 / A100). CUDA ≥ 12.4.
+
+## Run
+
+```bash
+# Text-to-image
+python examples/offline_inference/lance/end2end.py \
+    --model bytedance-research/Lance \
+    --prompts "a corgi astronaut on the moon, cinematic" \
+    --steps 30 --cfg-text-scale 4.0 --timestep-shift 3.5 \
+    --height 1024 --width 1024 \
+    --output ./out
+
+# Text-to-video (uses the Lance_3B_Video subfolder; see ``--modality``
+# choices for all six task variants)
+python examples/offline_inference/lance/end2end.py \
+    --model bytedance-research/Lance/Lance_3B_Video --modality text2video \
+    --num-frames 25 --video-height 480 --video-width 768 \
+    --prompts "a cat playing piano, cinematic" \
+    --steps 30 --fps 8 --output ./out
+```
+
+`video_edit` requires `--model bytedance-research/Lance/Lance_3B_Video` so
+the 3-D `latent_pos_embed` table is loaded; the other paths can point at
+the top-level `bytedance-research/Lance` repo and resolve the right
+sub-checkpoint automatically.
+
+The HF repo bundles everything (`Lance_3B/`, `Lance_3B_Video/`,

+Matches upstream `inference_lance.sh`: 30 denoising steps, timestep-shift 3.5,
+text CFG 4.0, seed 42, 1024×1024 (override with `--height` / `--width`).  For
+the understanding paths (`img2text` / `video2text`), sampling is enabled by
+default at `--text-temperature 0.8` because Lance's greedy decoder emits an
+immediate EOS for many prompts.

 The thinker processes your multimodal input, generates text, then the talker synthesises the response as speech.

+# Step-Audio2 Offline Inference Examples
+
+This directory contains examples for running offline inference with Step-Audio2 using vLLM-Omni.
+
+## Model Overview
+
+Step-Audio2 is a two-stage audio model:
+
+- **Stage 0 (Thinker)**: Audio understanding → Text + Audio tokens
+  - Input: Audio (16kHz)
+  - Output: Text transcription + Audio tokens for synthesis
+
+- **Stage 1 (Token2Wav)**: Audio synthesis
+  - Input: Audio tokens + Speaker prompt wav
+  - Output: Synthesized audio waveform (24kHz)
+
+## Hardware Requirements
+
+| Mode | GPU Configuration | VRAM Required |
+|------|-------------------|---------------|
+| ASR (S2T) | 1x GPU | ~20-25GB |
+| TTS/S2ST (single GPU) | 1x GPU | ~40-50GB |
+| TTS/S2ST (multi GPU) | 2x GPU | GPU0: ~28GB, GPU1: ~22GB |
+
+**Tested on:**
+- 1x NVIDIA H100 80GB (single-card S2ST)
+- 2x NVIDIA A10 40GB (multi-card S2ST)
+
+**Notes:**
+- Single GPU mode requires high VRAM due to both stages sharing memory
+- Multi GPU mode separates Stage 0 (Thinker) and Stage 1 (Token2Wav) across GPUs
+- VRAM usage can be adjusted via `gpu_memory_utilization` in stage config
+
+## Performance Benchmark
+
+### vLLM-Omni vs Official Step-Audio2
+
+Single request latency comparison between vLLM-Omni and official Step-Audio2 implementation.
+
+| Task | Tokens | vllm-omni | Step-Audio2 | Speedup |
+|------|--------|-----------|-------------|---------|
+| S2ST | ~85 | 5.45s | 7.36s | **1.35x** |
+| S2ST | ~160 | 6.67s | 13.92s | **2.09x** |
+| S2ST | ~315 | 9.42s | 31.50s | **3.34x** |
+| TTS | ~1024 | 16.65s | ~87s | **~5.2x** |
+
+**Key observations:**
+- Speedup increases with sequence length due to vLLM's efficient KV cache management
+- TTS (pure generation) shows the largest speedup (~5x)
+- S2ST benefits from optimized multi-stage pipeline
+
+**Benchmark environment:**
+- GPU: NVIDIA H100 80GB (single card)
+- Model: Step-Audio2-mini
+- Warmup: 1 run, Measured: 3 runs (averaged)
+
+### Async Chunk Streaming Performance
+
+Comparison between sequential (non-async) and async chunk modes via `/v1/audio/speech` TTS endpoint.
+
+| Mode | Mean TTFP | Mean E2E | Mean RTF | Audio Throughput |
+|------|-----------|----------|----------|-----------------|
+| Sequential | 4316ms | 4316ms | 0.938 | 1.07x realtime |
+| **Async Chunk** | **1437ms** | 4362ms | 0.949 | 1.06x realtime |
+| **Improvement** | **-67% (3x faster)** | ~same | ~same | ~same |
+
+**Key observations:**
+- Async chunk reduces **time-to-first-audio (TTFP) by 67%** (4.3s → 1.4s)
+- E2E latency remains comparable — async chunk overlaps Thinker decode with Token2Wav synthesis
+- RTF < 1 in both modes (real-time capable)
+- Sequential mode: TTFP ≈ E2E (must wait for all audio tokens before synthesis starts)
+- Async chunk mode: Token2Wav starts after first 28 tokens (chunk_size=25 + lookahead=3)
+
+**Benchmark environment:**
+- GPU: 4x NVIDIA RTX 3090 24GB (TP=2 for Thinker, 1 GPU for Token2Wav)
+- Model: Step-Audio2-mini
+- Endpoint: `/v1/audio/speech` (10 prompts, concurrency=1)
+- Measured via `bench_tts_serve.py`
+
+## Installation
+
+Make sure you have installed vLLM-Omni and all required dependencies:
+
+```bash
+# Install vLLM-Omni
+pip install vllm-omni
+
+# Install Step-Audio2 (REQUIRED for Token2Wav stage)
+pip install step-audio2
+```
+
+## Model Setup
+
+### Option 1: Auto-download from HuggingFace (Recommended)
+
+The script will **automatically download** the model on first run:
+
+```bash
+# Just run without specifying --model, it will auto-download stepfun-ai/Step-Audio2-mini
+python end2end.py --query-type audio_to_text
+
+# Or explicitly specify the HuggingFace model
+python end2end.py --query-type audio_to_text --model stepfun-ai/Step-Audio2-mini
+```
+
+Models will be cached in `~/.cache/huggingface/hub/` for future use.
+
+**Available models**:
+- `stepfun-ai/Step-Audio2-mini` (smaller, faster)
+- `stepfun-ai/Step-Audio2-7B` (larger, better quality)
+
+### Option 2: Manual Download (for offline use)
+
+Download and use locally:
+
+```bash
+# Download from HuggingFace
+huggingface-cli download stepfun-ai/Step-Audio2-mini --local-dir ./models/Step-Audio2-mini
+
+# Then use the local path
+python end2end.py --query-type audio_to_text --model ./models/Step-Audio2-mini
+```
+
+Ensure the model directory contains:
+```
+Step-Audio2-mini/
+├── config.json
+├── model.safetensors (or pytorch_model.bin)
+├── tokenizer.json
+├── tokenizer_config.json
+└── token2wav/                           # Token2Wav models (REQUIRED)
+    ├── speech_tokenizer_v2_25hz.onnx   # Audio tokenizer
+    ├── campplus.onnx                    # Speaker encoder
+    ├── flow.yaml                        # Flow model config
+    ├── flow.pt                          # Flow model weights
+    └── hift.pt                          # HiFT vocoder weights
+```
+
+## Usage Examples
+
+### 1. Audio to Text (ASR - Speech Recognition)
+
+Transcribe audio to text:
+
+```bash
+# Quick start - Using default model and test audio
+python end2end.py --query-type audio_to_text
+
+# Using your own audio file (model will auto-download)
+python end2end.py --query-type audio_to_text \
+    --audio-path /path/to/input.wav
+
+# With specific model
+python end2end.py --query-type audio_to_text \
+    --audio-path /path/to/input.wav \
+    --model stepfun-ai/Step-Audio2-7B
+
+# With custom question
+python end2end.py --query-type audio_to_text \
+    --audio-path input.wav \
+    --question "What is the speaker saying?"
+```
+
+**Output**: Text transcription saved to `output_step_audio2/00000_text.txt`
+
+### 2. Text to Audio (TTS - Speech Synthesis)
+
+Convert text to speech:
+
+```bash
+# Basic TTS (model auto-downloads)
+python end2end.py --query-type text_to_audio \
+    --text "Hello, this is a test of Step Audio 2 synthesis."
+
+# With specific model
+python end2end.py --query-type text_to_audio \
+    --text "Hello, this is a test." \
+    --model stepfun-ai/Step-Audio2-7B
+```
+
+**Note**: Speaker voice is controlled by the `STEP_AUDIO2_DEFAULT_PROMPT_WAV` environment variable or the default prompt wav bundled with the model.
+
+**Output**:
+- Text: `output_step_audio2/00000_text.txt`
+- Audio: `output_step_audio2/00000_output.wav` (24kHz)
+
+### 3. Audio to Audio (Voice Conversion)
+
+Process input audio and generate output audio:
+
+```bash
+# Basic voice conversion (model auto-downloads)
+python end2end.py --query-type audio_to_audio \
+    --audio-path /path/to/source_audio.wav
+
+# With specific model
+python end2end.py --query-type audio_to_audio \
+    --audio-path source.wav \
+    --model stepfun-ai/Step-Audio2-7B
+```
+
+This mode:
+1. Understands the content in `--audio-path` (source)
+2. Generates audio output with the default voice
+
+**Note**: To use a custom speaker voice, set the `STEP_AUDIO2_DEFAULT_PROMPT_WAV` environment variable.
+
+### Advanced Options
+
+```bash
+# Use custom stage configuration
+python end2end.py --query-type audio_to_text \
+    --stage-configs-path /path/to/custom_config.yaml
+
+# Multiple prompts (for batch testing)
+python end2end.py --query-type audio_to_text \
+    --audio-path input.wav \
+    --num-prompts 5
+
+# Custom output directory
+python end2end.py --query-type text_to_audio \
+    --text "Test synthesis" \
+    --output-dir ./my_outputs
+
+# Enable detailed logging
+python end2end.py --query-type audio_to_text \
+    --audio-path input.wav \
+    --enable-stats
+
+# Adjust generation parameters
+python end2end.py --query-type audio_to_text \
+    --audio-path input.wav \
+    --max-tokens 2048
+
+# Use custom speaker voice via environment variable
+STEP_AUDIO2_DEFAULT_PROMPT_WAV=/path/to/speaker.wav python end2end.py \
+    --query-type text_to_audio \
+    --text "Hello world"
+
+# Use Ray backend for distributed processing

+    --text "Hello world" \
+    --worker-backend ray \
+    --ray-address "auto"
+```
+
+## Configuration
+
+### Stage Configuration
+
+The default configuration (`step_audio_2.yaml`) uses:
+
+- **Stage 0 (Thinker)**: GPU 0, 80% memory
+- **Stage 1 (Token2Wav)**: GPU 1, 30% memory
+
+For **single GPU** setup, edit the config to use `devices: "0"` for both stages.
+
+### Sampling Parameters
+
+- **Thinker (Stage 0)**:
+  - Temperature: 0.7 (balanced creativity)
+  - Top-p: 0.9
+  - Max tokens: 1024 (configurable)
+
+- **Token2Wav (Stage 1)**:
+  - Temperature: 0.0 (deterministic)
+  - Operates in generation mode (not sampling)
+
+## Common Issues
+
+### 1. ImportError: No module named 's3tokenizer'
+
+**Solution**: Install Step-Audio2 package:
+```bash
+pip install step-audio2
+```
+
+### 2. FileNotFoundError: prompt_wav file not found
+
+**Solution**: Set the `STEP_AUDIO2_DEFAULT_PROMPT_WAV` environment variable to a valid audio file:
+```bash
+export STEP_AUDIO2_DEFAULT_PROMPT_WAV=/path/to/speaker.wav
+python end2end.py --query-type text_to_audio --text "Hello"
+```
+Or ensure the default prompt wav (`default_female.wav`) exists in your model directory.
+
+### 3. FileNotFoundError: token2wav models not found
+
+**Solution**: Ensure your model directory has the complete `token2wav/` subdirectory with all ONNX and PyTorch models.
+
+### 4. CUDA Out of Memory
+
+**Solutions**:
+- Use single GPU mode (set both stages to `devices: "0"`)
+- Reduce `gpu_memory_utilization` in config
+- Reduce `max_num_batched_tokens`
+- Process fewer prompts at once
+
+### 5. Model not found in registry
+
+**Solution**: Ensure you're using vLLM-Omni's entry point with `--omni` flag or install vllm-omni properly:
+```bash
+pip install vllm-omni
+```
+
+## Output Files
+
+The script generates files in the output directory (default: `output_step_audio2/`):
+
+```
+output_step_audio2/
+├── 00000_text.txt        # Text output from Thinker stage
+├── 00000_output.wav      # Audio output from Token2Wav stage (24kHz)
+├── 00001_text.txt        # (if multiple prompts)
+└── 00001_output.wav
+```
+
+## Performance Tips
+
+1. **First run is slow**: Stage initialization takes 20-60 seconds
+2. **Single GPU**: Set both stages to `devices: "0"` in config
+3. **Multiple prompts**: Use `--num-prompts N` for batch testing
+4. **Ray backend**: For multi-node or advanced scheduling
+5. **Logging**: Use `--enable-stats` to debug performance issues
+
+## Speaker Voice Configuration
+
+The Token2Wav stage requires a speaker prompt wav for voice conditioning. It is automatically resolved in this order:
+
+1. `STEP_AUDIO2_DEFAULT_PROMPT_WAV` environment variable (if set)
+2. `{model_dir}/assets/default_female.wav`
+3. `{model_dir}/default_female.wav`
+
+If none are found, set the environment variable explicitly:
+```bash
+export STEP_AUDIO2_DEFAULT_PROMPT_WAV=/path/to/speaker.wav
+```
+
+**Guidelines for custom speaker prompt:**
+
+- **Duration**: 3-10 seconds recommended
+- **Quality**: Clean audio, minimal background noise
+- **Format**: WAV, MP3, FLAC (will be resampled internally)
+- **Content**: Clear speech, representative of target voice
+
+## Example Workflow
+
+Complete example from audio to final output:
+
+```bash
+# 1. ASR: Transcribe audio
+python end2end.py --query-type audio_to_text \
+    --audio-path interview.wav \
+    --model ./models/Step-Audio2-7B \
+    --output-dir ./outputs
+
+# 2. Check the transcription
+cat ./outputs/00000_text.txt
+
+# 3. TTS: Synthesize new speech (with custom voice)
+STEP_AUDIO2_DEFAULT_PROMPT_WAV=./speaker_samples/female_voice.wav \
+python end2end.py --query-type text_to_audio \
+    --text "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog" \
+    --model ./models/Step-Audio2-7B \
+    --output-dir ./outputs
+
+# 4. Listen to the result
+# Audio saved to: ./outputs/00000_output.wav

+This example shows how to use vLLM-Omni for running offline inference
+with Step-Audio2 model for audio understanding and generation.
+
+Step-Audio2 is a two-stage model:
+  - Stage 0 (Thinker): Audio understanding → Text + Audio tokens
+  - Stage 1 (Token2Wav): Audio tokens → Waveform (24kHz)
+
+Usage examples:
+  # Audio to text (ASR)
+  python end2end.py --query-type audio_to_text --audio-path input.wav --model-path "$MODEL_PATH"
+
+  # Text to audio (TTS with default voice)
+  python end2end.py --query-type text_to_audio --model-path "$MODEL_PATH"
+
+  # Audio to audio (Voice conversion with default voice)
+  python end2end.py --query-type audio_to_audio --audio-path input.wav --model-path "$MODEL_PATH"

+
+### Notes
+- `style`, `ip`, `bgm`, and `tta` do not require reference audio.
+- Reference-audio cases use `--ref-audio`; `zero_shot` also requires `--ref-text`.
+- `podcast` uses multiple references via `--ref-audio-paths`.
+- Full case details live in [`ming_tts/README.md`](ming_tts/README.md).

+# Ming-omni-tts Offline Inference
+
+`end2end.py` runs Ming dense 0.5B end to end with vLLM-Omni. It uses the in-repo Ming prompt assembly helper directly, so the example request shape matches the real integration instead of a simplified wrapper.
+
+## Files
+
+| File | Purpose |
+|---|---|
+| `end2end.py` | Driver: CLI, case loading, prompt construction, orchestration (~150 lines) |
+| `cases.yaml` | All 11 built-in case definitions (prompt, text, instruction, ref-audio flags, flow controls) |
+| `runner.py` | Engine management and audio output (streaming + blocking paths) |
+
+## Model Overview
+
+Ming dense 0.5B is exposed here as a two-stage offline pipeline:
+
+- **Stage 0**: Qwen2-based AR generation with Ming prompt formatting and inline flow controls
+- **Stage 1**: audio VAE decode to mono 44.1 kHz waveform
+
+`config_ming_tts.py` adapts the checkpoint's HuggingFace config fields
+(LLM, DiT, aggregator, AudioVAE, token ids). `vllm_omni/deploy/ming_tts.yaml`
+selects the vLLM-Omni pipeline and stage runtime topology, including
+connectors, async chunking, memory limits, and sampling defaults.
+
+The example supports both:
+
+- **Blocking eager** via `vllm_omni/deploy/ming_tts.yaml`
+- **Async chunk eager** via `vllm_omni/deploy/ming_tts.yaml` (default `async_chunk: true`)
+
+## Setup
+
+Install vLLM-Omni with the platform requirements for your accelerator:
+
+```bash
+uv pip install -e .
+```
+
+The Ming offline example does not require a separate upstream Ming package.
+Reference-audio cases use the repo dependencies for audio loading,
+resampling, and CampPlus speaker extraction, including `soundfile`,
+`torchaudio`, and `onnxruntime-rocm` in the documented ROCm environment.
+
+The tested ROCm environment is summarized in the
+[Ming recipe](https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm-omni/blob/main/recipes/inclusionAI/Ming-omni-tts-0.5B.md).
+
+## Supported Cases
+
+These cases cover the upstream dense 0.5B cookbook surface that maps cleanly onto the current vLLM-Omni example:
+
+- `style`: zero-speaker style-conditioned speech
+- `ip`: zero-speaker IP voice generation
+- `bgm`: music-only generation
+- `tta`: text-to-audio event generation with FlowLoss controls
+- `emotion`: reference-audio speech with emotion control
+- `basic`: reference-audio speech with speed / pitch / volume control
+- `dialect`: reference-audio speech with dialect control
+- `zero_shot`: reference-audio cloning with explicit transcript
+- `podcast`: multi-reference dialogue generation with automatic speaker embedding extraction
+- `speech_bgm`: speech with background music conditioning
+- `speech_sound`: speech with environmental sound conditioning
+
+## Quick Start
+
+Run the zero-speaker style example:
+
+```bash
+python examples/offline_inference/text_to_speech/ming_tts/end2end.py \
+    --case style \
+    --deploy-config vllm_omni/deploy/ming_tts.yaml \
+    --enforce-eager
+```
+
+Run zero-shot cloning with a transcript:
+
+```bash
+python examples/offline_inference/text_to_speech/ming_tts/end2end.py \
+    --case zero_shot \
+    --ref-audio /path/to/10002287-00000094.wav \
+    --ref-text "在此奉劝大家别乱打美白针。" \
+    --deploy-config vllm_omni/deploy/ming_tts.yaml \
+    --enforce-eager
+```
+
+Run emotion-controlled speech:
+
+```bash
+python examples/offline_inference/text_to_speech/ming_tts/end2end.py \
+    --case emotion \
+    --ref-audio /path/to/emotion_prompt.wav \
+    --deploy-config vllm_omni/deploy/ming_tts.yaml \
+    --enforce-eager
+```
+
+Run podcast generation with two reference clips:
+
+```bash
+python examples/offline_inference/text_to_speech/ming_tts/end2end.py \
+    --case podcast \
+    --ref-audio-paths /path/to/CTS-CN-F2F-2019-11-11-423-012-A.wav /path/to/CTS-CN-F2F-2019-11-11-423-012-B.wav \
+    --deploy-config vllm_omni/deploy/ming_tts.yaml \
+    --enforce-eager
+```
+
+The script automatically extracts one 192-d speaker embedding per reference WAV using the Ming model's `campplus.onnx`.
+
+If you already have precomputed multi-speaker embeddings, you can override extraction with:
+
+```bash
+--speaker-embedding /path/to/podcast_speaker_embeddings.json
+```
+
+where the JSON is a list of speaker embeddings, one 192-d vector per speaker.
+
+Run text-to-audio event generation:
+
+```bash
+python examples/offline_inference/text_to_speech/ming_tts/end2end.py \
+    --case tta \
+    --deploy-config vllm_omni/deploy/ming_tts.yaml \
+    --enforce-eager
+```
+
+Use async_chunk streaming:
+
+```bash
+python examples/offline_inference/text_to_speech/ming_tts/end2end.py \
+    --case basic \
+    --ref-audio /path/to/10002287-00000095.wav \
+    --streaming \
+    --deploy-config vllm_omni/deploy/ming_tts.yaml \
+    --enforce-eager
+```
+
+`--streaming` uses `AsyncOmni` and the async_chunk stage config. It currently
+supports one prompt per process invocation; use blocking mode for
+`--num-prompts > 1`.
+
+Collect runtime stats and a manifest:
+
+```bash
+python examples/offline_inference/text_to_speech/ming_tts/end2end.py \
+    --case style \
+    --deploy-config vllm_omni/deploy/ming_tts.yaml \
+    --enforce-eager \
+    --enable-stats \
+    --stats-log-file output_audio/ming_style_pipeline.log \
+    --metadata-json output_audio/ming_style_manifest.json
+```
+
+## Reference Fixtures
+
+The upstream Ming cookbook uses these public audio fixtures from `inclusionAI/Ming-omni-tts/data/wavs`:
+
+- `10002287-00000094.wav` for zero-shot cloning
+- `10002287-00000095.wav` for `basic`
+- `emotion_prompt.wav` for `emotion`
+- `yue_prompt.wav` for `dialect`
+- `00000309-00000300.wav` for `speech_bgm` and `speech_sound`
+- `CTS-CN-F2F-2019-11-11-423-012-A.wav` and `CTS-CN-F2F-2019-11-11-423-012-B.wav` for `podcast`
+
+## Validation Matrix
+
+The repo-facing example is intended to cover the same dense TTS workflows used
+by the local Ming validation script:
+
+| Case | Blocking `deploy/ming_tts.yaml` | Async chunk `deploy/ming_tts.yaml` | Extra inputs |
+|---|---:|---:|---|
+| `style` | Yes | Optional smoke test | none |
+| `ip` | Yes | Optional smoke test | none |
+| `bgm` | Yes | Optional smoke test | none |
+| `tta` | Yes | Optional smoke test | none |
+| `emotion` | Yes | Yes | `--ref-audio emotion_prompt.wav` |
+| `basic` | Yes | Yes | `--ref-audio 10002287-00000095.wav` |
+| `dialect` | Yes | Yes | `--ref-audio yue_prompt.wav` |
+| `zero_shot` | Yes | Yes | `--ref-audio 10002287-00000094.wav --ref-text ...` |
+| `podcast` | Yes | Yes | two `--ref-audio-paths` |
+| `speech_bgm` | Yes | Yes | `--ref-audio 00000309-00000300.wav` |
+| `speech_sound` | Yes | Yes | `--ref-audio 00000309-00000300.wav` |
+
+## Validated Outputs

+The following measurements are retained from an earlier L4 CUDA validation;
+they are not ROCm benchmark results. Default async_chunk matched blocking
+output frame counts and Stage-1 patch counts for every case:
+
+| Case | Blocking frames / patches / sec | Async chunk frames / patches / sec |
+|---|---:|---:|
+| `style` | 409248 / 29 / 9.28 | 409248 / 29 / 9.28 |

+| `bgm` | 1326528 / 94 / 30.08 | 1326528 / 94 / 30.08 |
+| `tta` | 465696 / 33 / 10.56 | 465696 / 33 / 10.56 |
+| `emotion` | 324576 / 23 / 7.36 | 324576 / 23 / 7.36 |
+| `basic` | 211680 / 15 / 4.80 | 211680 / 15 / 4.80 |
+| `dialect` | 239904 / 17 / 5.44 | 239904 / 17 / 5.44 |
+| `zero_shot` | 409248 / 29 / 9.28 | 409248 / 29 / 9.28 |
+| `podcast` | 437472 / 31 / 9.92 | 437472 / 31 / 9.92 |
+| `speech_bgm` | 296352 / 21 / 6.72 | 296352 / 21 / 6.72 |
+| `speech_sound` | 352800 / 25 / 8.00 | 352800 / 25 / 8.00 |
+
+## Key Arguments
+

+
+## Output
+
+- The script writes one mono 44.1 kHz WAV file per run
+- Default output directory: `output_audio/`
+- Default filename: `ming_<case>.wav`
+- When `--num-prompts > 1`, outputs are indexed as `ming_<case>_00000.wav`, `..._00001.wav`, etc.
+- When stats are enabled, the script can also write:
+  - a stats log file such as `ming_style_pipeline.log`
+  - a manifest JSON with per-output metadata, stage durations, peak memory info,
+    and streaming client latency metrics when `--streaming` is used
+
+## Notes
+
+- `style` and `ip` are zero-speaker paths and do not require a reference clip
+- `emotion`, `basic`, `dialect`, `speech_bgm`, and `speech_sound` require one reference clip
+- `zero_shot` requires both `--ref-audio` and `--ref-text`
+- `podcast` requires at least two reference clips via `--ref-audio-paths`
+- `podcast` automatically extracts one speaker embedding per reference clip
+- `--speaker-embedding` may contain either one 192-d vector or a list of 192-d vectors
+- `--enforce-eager` was used for the validated runs
+- The earlier L4 validation used SDPA for the Ming audio VAE instead of
+  FlashAttention2, which is the preferred default when available.
