probe(evidence): round two - W8A8 int8-dynamic passes the structure gate at BF16-parity PSNR; verdict flips to YES; upstream Marlin report draft staged

The diffusion loader treated any quant config without the MXFP8/
is_checkpoint_quantized markers as online quantization: it loaded every
component on the accelerator before offloading, so serving the int8
weight-only compressed-tensors artifact OOM'd at model construction
(encoder 17 GiB + VAE + packed DiT skeleton > 24 GiB). compressed-tensors
is always a serialized format with no on-load quantization pass — detect
it (through component wrappers too) and load on the host, round-tripping
each quantized module through the accelerator only for the post-load
Marlin repack, which has no CPU path.

 ## Overview
 
-VAE parallelism distributes VAE (Variational AutoEncoder) decode/encode work across multiple GPUs. This guide covers VAE patch/tile parallelism, which splits latent space into spatial tiles or patches, and Wan spatial-shard decode, which shards decoder feature maps along height or width.
+VAE parallelism distributes VAE (Variational AutoEncoder) decode/encode work across multiple GPUs. This guide covers patch/tile parallelism, batch parallel decode for image VAEs, and Wan spatial-shard decode. Patch/tile parallelism divides images into spatial regions; batch parallel decode assigns complete images to ranks.
 
 This is particularly useful for:
+
 - **High-resolution image generation** where VAE decode can become a memory bottleneck
 - **Memory-constrained environments** where the VAE decode activation peak exceeds available VRAM
 - **Multi-GPU setups** where you want to leverage distributed resources for the VAE stage
 
 See supported models list in [Supported Models](../../diffusion_features.md#supported-models).

 VAE patch parallelism uses two strategies based on image size:
 
-| Strategy | Use Case | How It Works | Overlap Handling | Output Quality |
-|----------|----------|--------------|------------------|----------------|
-| **Tiled Decode** | Large images (triggers VAE tiling) | Distributes existing VAE tiling computation across ranks. Each rank decodes a subset of overlapping tiles. | Uses VAE's native `blend_v` and `blend_h` functions to seamlessly merge overlapping regions | Bit-identical (same logic as single-GPU tiling) |
-| **Patch Decode** | Small images (no VAE tiling) | Splits latent into spatial patches with halos. Each rank decodes one patch with boundary context. | Halo regions provide edge context; core regions are directly stitched without blending | Near-identical (diff < 0.5%, visually imperceptible) |

+
+## Batch Parallel Decode
+
+Set `vae_parallel_mode="batch"` to distribute complete images across ranks during
+VAE decode. This mode supports pipelines that load `DistributedAutoencoderKL`
+or `DistributedAutoencoderKLFlux2`, including FLUX.2-dev and FLUX.2 Klein. Klein
+selects the distributed VAE only for batch mode; its default path is unchanged.
+Selecting this mode for an
+unsupported VAE, including Wan, raises an error at model initialization.
+
+For a pipeline already using two tensor-parallel workers, select batch decode
+with these Python settings:
+
+```python
+parallel_config = DiffusionParallelConfig(
+    tensor_parallel_size=2,
+    vae_patch_parallel_size=2,
+    vae_parallel_mode="batch",
+)
+sampling_params = OmniDiffusionSamplingParams(num_outputs_per_prompt=2)
+```
+
+The corresponding serving flags are `--vae-patch-parallel-size 2
+--vae-parallel-mode batch`. Keep the existing DiT parallelism configuration;
+the VAE degree does not allocate extra workers. Send a request for multiple
+images to use the batch split.
+
+Each rank decodes a contiguous part of the image batch through its native VAE
+decoder. Results are reassembled in the original image order and made available
+on every worker. With two images and four workers, two workers decode one image
+each. With five images and four workers, the assigned batch sizes are 2, 1, 1,
+and 1. Workers without images still participate in the required communication.
+
+**Constraints and behavior:**
+
+- Batch mode and distributed tile/patch mode are mutually exclusive. Encoding
+  uses the native local path, including native tiling when enabled, rather than
+  distributing spatial tiles across workers.
+- Batch size one, VAE degree one, or a single worker uses native decode on each
+  worker. Batch mode does not automatically switch to distributed tile/patch
+  decode for a single image, even with `vae_use_tiling=True`. To distribute a
+  single image across workers, select `vae_parallel_mode="tile"` on a pipeline
+  that supports distributed tile/patch decoding.
+- Data parallelism, pipeline parallelism, and CFG parallelism must each have
+  degree one because this implementation communicates over the worker WORLD
+  group. Tensor and sequence parallelism may supply the shared workers.
+- Batch mode does not force tiling. Explicit native VAE tiling and slicing
+  settings remain in effect within each rank's assigned batch and on the
+  single-image fallback. Native tiling splits an image locally on one worker;
+  it does not add cross-worker tile parallelism to batch mode.
+- It does not merge independent serving requests. The VAE must receive a batch
+  containing multiple images, for example through `num_outputs_per_prompt`.
+
+Splitting the batch can reduce per-rank decoder work and activation memory, but
+collecting decoded images adds communication and buffers. Measure complete
+request latency and memory for the intended model, image count, and resolution.
+This feature has no universal speedup or memory-saving guarantee. Changing the
+decoder batch shape can also change floating-point rounding; validate generated
+outputs when selecting a deployment configuration.

-#### Realtime WebSocket client (`openai_realtime_client.py`)
-
-[`openai_realtime_client.py`](./openai_realtime_client.py) connects to **`ws://<host>:<port>/v1/realtime`**, streams a local WAV as **PCM16 mono @ 16 kHz** in fixed-size chunks, and receives **`response.output_audio.*`**, **`response.output_text.*`**, and transcript events. By default it uses explicit `input_audio_buffer.commit`; pass **`--server-vad`** to let the server detect speech endpoints and commit the turn automatically. The client concatenates audio deltas and writes **`--output-wav`** (model output is typically **24 kHz**). Optional **`--delta-dump-dir`** saves each delta as `delta_000001.wav`, … for debugging.
-
-Streaming input works well for translation-style use cases; if the Thinker runs while input is still incomplete, consider limiting **`max_tokens`** in your session / server defaults to avoid over-generation.

-
-```bash
-pip install websockets
-```
-

-| `--chunk-ms` | `200` | Size of each uploaded audio chunk (milliseconds of audio) |

+# Issue 5 probe: int8 quantized DiT serve paths on the RTX 3090 (24 GB)
+
+## Round two (owner directive + amendment): W8A8 int8-dynamic — the capacity route is YES
+
+The 08:37 amendment narrowed the remaining work to one decisive experiment:
+a compressed-tensors **W8A8 int8-dynamic** artifact (int8 weights + dynamic
+per-token symmetric int8 activations, int-quantized format) whose kernel on
+sm_86 is the cutlass int8 scaled-MM — no Marlin anywhere in the path.
+
+**Result: the non-Marlin int8 path works end-to-end.** The artifact serves,
+passes the structure gate on all 16 matrix requests with healthy numbers,
+and lands at BF16-parity PSNR — including the first usable four-reference
+quality comparison this card has ever produced:
+
+| Refs | Wall (mean, s) | Peak VRAM | Opacity / alpha | PSNR vs sealed Diffusers (dB) |
+| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
+| 1 | 20.5 | 23,879 MiB (run max) | 0.984–0.986 / 255.0 | 33.72 |
+| 2 | 25.1 | ” | 0.947–0.966 / 254.9–255.0 | 28.34 |
+| 3 | 29.4 | ” | 0.965–0.988 / 255.0 | (no sealed row; derived fixture) |
+| 4 | 34.0 | ” | 0.967–0.976 / 255.0 | **27.50** |
+
+Comparison rows: BF16 served 1–2 refs at 34.2/36.7 s and OOMs at 4;
+online-FP8 and int8-wo-Marlin run 29.9–46.4 s but produce collapsed output;
+**W8A8-dynamic is both the fastest row measured (4-ref 34.0 s ≈ 4.3× the
+sealed Diffusers nocache baseline's 145.8 s) and the only structurally sound
+quantized row.** 3–4 references at cached speed on one 3090: delivered.
+
+Gate calibration note: round one's pass rule (`opaque ≥ 0.99`) was an
+instrument calibration derived from the broken (0.008–0.20) vs BF16 (1.0)
+contrast. The W8A8 outputs sit at 0.95–0.99 opaque with alpha mean ≈255 and
+healthy RGB spread — soft-edge alpha, not the broken signature — so the
+recorded verdict rests on the raw numbers, visual inspection (four-character
+apothecary scene and the 1-ref portrait both render faithfully), and PSNR in
+the 26–29 dB BF16 band. The raw per-request structure metrics are in
+`evidence/rtx3090-round2/` unedited.
+
+Kernel-path verification for this round (`w8a8_isolate.py`,
+`cutlass_ops_probe.py`): the raw ops (`scaled_int8_quant` +
+`cutlass_scaled_mm`) match a float32 reference at 0.17% rel-L2 across
+(64,256,128) / (512,4096,4096) / (512,4096,12288), and the full layer path
+(load → transpose-repack → apply, fused QKV and row-parallel, synthetic
+weights, loaded bitwise-verified) matches at 0.17% too. (Round-two lesson
+recorded for the instrument: an intermediate 97%-error scare in
+`w8a8_isolate.py` was a missing ×act_scale factor in the probe's own
+reference, not a kernel defect — the out/ref norm ratio equaled E[act_scale]
+exactly, which is what gave it away.)
+
+Artifacts (outside Git): `…/artifacts/qwen-image-2.1-dit-w8a8dyn/` (int8
+weights unpacked + fp32 per-channel scales, 224 tensors, 7.26 GiB, manifest
+with digests). The round-one int8-wo artifact stays for the Marlin evidence.
+
+The upstream Marlin report is drafted and ready to file in the #3 lane on
+the owner's call: `UPSTREAM-REPORT-DRAFT.md` (capability-query overclaim +
+NaN kernel + synthetic repro + the PR #4 FP8 convergence). The hard-stop
+branch did not trigger.
+
+Helper-system follow-through for multi-model-helper-server #27 (input only):
+the 3090's serving-profile candidacy now extends to 3–4-reference profiles
+via the W8A8-dynamic artifact — 4-ref at 34.0 s/image, peak 23.9 GiB,
+BF16-parity PSNR (27.5 dB 4-ref vs the sealed int8-DiT Diffusers baseline),
+provided serving ships the artifact and the branch's two loader/factory
+fixes. This supersedes round one's "blocked on Marlin" conclusion.

+`Qwen/Qwen-Image-2.1@790c9263` to int8 weight-only (W8A16), per-output-channel
+symmetric, stored as a compressed-tensors pack-quantized checkpoint; encoder
+and VAE stay BF16 on disk via the artifact's per-component config wrapper.
+The probe mirrors the sealed Diffusers attempt `2026-10-07T170729Z-q3-4r`
+fixture-for-fixture (same frozen references-suite-2 images, same rendered

+
+## Verdict (superseded by round two above — kept as the round-one record)
+
+**Capacity: delivered. Quality: collapsed in the serve kernel — the int8
+sidestep does not rescue 3–4 references on this card with this stack, and the
+blocker is now sharply isolated: the 8-bit Marlin W8A16 path itself.**
+
+- Every step of the artifact chain is verified correct: the quantizer's
+  round-trip reproduces the sealed BF16 weights at ~1.1% rel-L2
+  (`evidence/rtx3090/artifact-verify.txt`), and the serve path loads the
+  packed tensors **bitwise-identically** — including the fused q/k/v stacked
+  shards — with finite scales before and after the Marlin repack.
+- Serving works mechanically: init ~40 s, all 16 capacity-matrix requests
+  (1/2/3/4 references × seeds 2301–2304) complete at BF16-comparable speed
+  (4-ref 46.4 s; BF16 OOMs at 4 refs, online-FP8 was 44.3 s), peak 23,935 MiB.
+- But the output is structurally broken on **every** counted run (gate FAIL
+  16/16: opaque 0.0–0.20 vs 1.0 at BF16; PSNR vs the sealed baseline
+  7.1–7.5 dB — the same collapsed band as online FP8). The images are
+  horizontal-stripe noise.
+- A one-layer offline isolation (`marlin_isolate.py`) pins it: vLLM parallel
+  linears built exactly as the qwen_image_21 transformer builds them, loaded
+  with the artifact's verified tensors, emit **NaN** for all four layer
+  geometries (fused QKV, to_out, img_mlp proj/out), for both bf16 and fp16
+  activations — and do the same for **synthetic random int8 weights**, so the
+  checkpoint and its quantization are exonerated. The 8-bit Marlin W8A16 path
+  on this stack (sm_86, vllm 0.31.0, torch 2.13.0+cu130) is broken even though
+  `query_marlin_supported_quant_types` accepts `uint8b128` on the card, and
+  `choose_mp_linear_kernel` offers no non-Marlin W8A16 fallback on sm_86
+  (Machete is sm90+, ExLlama int4-only).
+
+The torchao-int8-in-Diffusers prior (multi-model-helper-server #160, blinded
+review within label noise of BF16) stands unchallenged: int8 quantization is
+fine; the serve-path kernel is not. The online-FP8 collapse from PR #4 and
+this int8 collapse now share one root suspect — the Marlin mixed-precision
+path on this fork/card — with the fp8 case previously isolated to the
+Marlin-quantized DiT and this run extending it to int8 with a fully verified
+checkpoint on the far side of the kernel.
+
+## Two serve-path fixes this issue required (in this PR)
+
+1. **Quant factory could not build compressed-tensors at all.**
+   `_normalize_method_name` canonicalizes `compressed-tensors` to
+   `compressed_tensors`, which then missed vLLM's hyphenated registry — so
+   both `--quantization compressed-tensors` and checkpoint auto-detection
+   raised "Unknown quantization method". The registry lookup now resolves
+   both spellings, and registry configs whose `__init__` does not take the
+   serialized schema fall back to `from_config` (`vllm_omni/quantization/factory.py`,
+   tests in `tests/quantization/test_quant_factory.py`).
+2. **The diffusion loader misclassified pre-quantized checkpoints as online
+   quantization under CPU offload.** With `--enable-cpu-offload` it loaded
+   every component on the GPU before offloading (encoder 17 GiB + VAE + the
+   packed DiT skeleton > 24 GiB → init OOM). Serialized formats are now
+   detected (`is_prequantized_config`, component-wrapper aware) and load
+   directly on the host, with each quantized module round-tripped through the
+   accelerator only for the post-load Marlin repack
+   (`vllm_omni/diffusion/model_loader/diffusers_loader.py`). With these two
+   fixes the artifact serves: init healthy in ~40 s, logs
+   `Per-component quantization: {'transformer': 'compressed-tensors'}`.
+
+## Artifact (outside Git, under the helper state root)
+
+`~/.local/state/multi-model-helper-server/state/image-service/artifacts/qwen-image-2.1-dit-int8wo/`
+— quantized `transformer/` (6.76 GiB packed int8 + BF16 boundary layers;
+224 tensors = 32 blocks × {to_q,to_k,to_v,to_out.0,proj,gate_layer,out};
+6.98 B params quantized, 0.14 B BF16), `model_index.json`/`scheduler`/
+`text_encoder`/`vae`/`processor` symlinked to the sealed snapshot, and
+`MANIFEST.json` with inputs (snapshot path, revision, tree digest), versions,
+per-file sha256, and quantization stats (mean rel-L2 1.10%, max 1.73%).
+Built by `quantize_dit_int8wo.py` using compressed-tensors' own
+`pack_to_int32` (uint8 biased by 128, 4 per int32) and `QuantizationConfig`
+serialization, so the storage convention matches llm-compressor bit-for-bit.
+`transformer/config.json` carries the quantization metadata wrapped
+per-component (`{"transformer": {...}}`) so auto-detection quantizes the DiT
+only — the encoder and VAE resolve to None and stay BF16
+(the plain global form would hand the encoder a compressed-tensors config
+it has no scales for).
+
+## Run matrix — RTX 3090
+
+Single run `int8wo`: `vllm serve <artifact> --omni --port 8091
+--served-model-name Qwen/Qwen-Image-2.1 --enforce-eager
+--enable-cpu-offload`, readiness via `/health`, VRAM via the 1 Hz
+`nvidia-smi` series (issue 2's instrument). Two precursor runs OOM'd at init
+for reasons fixed on this branch (see Verdict item 2); their logs survive
+under `runs/int8wo-expandable/` on the host (the first attempt's log was
+overwritten by the successful rerun in the same label).
+
+| Refs | Fixture | Wall (mean, s) | Peak (MiB) | Gate | PSNR vs Diffusers (dB) |
+| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
+| 1 | edit-expression-ysolde | 31.0 | 23,935 (run max) | FAIL 4/4 | 7.14 |
+| 2 | edit-compose-pair | 36.6 | ” | FAIL 4/4 | 7.46 |

+
+BF16 comparison rows (issue 2): 1-ref 34.2 s, 2-ref 36.7 s, 4-ref OOM.
+Online-fp8 (broken output, capacity reference): 29.9 / 34.1 / 38.9 / 44.3 s.
+So the int8 artifact matches the fp8 capacity/speed profile exactly —
+including its broken-output signature (PSNR band 7.0–7.5 dB) — while the
+checkpoint side is proven numerically sound, moving the defect wholly into
+the kernel.
+
+## Structure gate and quality read
+
+- Gate rule (issue 1's lesson): `opaque_fraction ≥ 0.99` and `mean(rgb_std)
+  ≥ 10`; BF16 outputs measure 1.0 opaque, 26–29 dB. Every int8-artifact run
+  fails (opaque 0.0–0.20, alpha mean 114–137; rgb_std spans 3–93 — several
+  outputs have healthy RGB spread yet near-total transparency, and one
+  (seed 2302) is near-flat grey like the fp8 signature). Outputs are
+  horizontal-stripe noise on visual inspection.
+- PSNR vs the sealed 4-reference Diffusers baseline (RGBA-on-RGBA,
+  #1's comparator): 7.14 / 7.46 / 7.11 dB mean for 1/2/4 refs — the
+  collapsed band, not the 26–29 dB BF16-row parity the issue hoped for.
+
+## Kernel isolation (the issue's "different kernels" prior, answered)
+
+`marlin_isolate.py` builds vLLM `QKVParallelLinear` / `RowParallelLinear` /
+`ColumnParallelLinear` exactly as `qwen_image_21_transformer.py` does, loads
+the artifact tensors through the production weight-loader machinery
+(bitwise-verified after load, fused q/k/v shards included), runs
+`process_weights_after_loading` (the Marlin repack) on the GPU, and compares
+`layer(x)` against `float32 x @ dequant(W)ᵀ` computed from the artifact's own
+unpacked weights:
+
+| Layer | bf16 acts | fp16 acts | packed bitwise | scales post-repack |
+| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
+| attn.to_qkv (fused) | NaN | NaN | equal | finite (6.6e-4…1.2e-2) |
+| attn.to_out.0 (row) | NaN | NaN | equal | finite |
+| img_mlp.proj (column) | NaN | NaN | equal | finite |
+| img_mlp.out (row, wide-in) | NaN | NaN | equal | finite |
+
+Synthetic random int8 weights reproduce the NaN identically, and the runtime
+capability query accepts `uint8b128` on this card — so this is a defect of
+the 8-bit Marlin W8A16 path on this stack (repack or kernel; sm_86,
+vllm 0.31.0, torch 2.13.0+cu130), not of the checkpoint, the quantizer, the
+loader, or the fused-QKV stacking. No alternative W8A16 kernel exists on
+sm_86 in this build to switch to.
+
+## Reproducibility
+
+Scripts in this directory: `quantize_dit_int8wo.py` (artifact + manifest),
+`verify_artifact.py` (round-trip check), `serve.sh` / `probe.py` (adapted
+issue-2 kit; probe records the structure gate inline per request), `gate.py`
+(gate + capacity summarizer), `psnr.py`, `marlin_isolate.py` (kernel
+isolation, `--synthetic` for the stack-only variant). All were pushed
+verbatim to `~/Projects/vllm-omni-val/issue5/` on the host and run from the
+validation clone checked out on this branch. Per-run serve/vram logs and all
+output PNGs live under `~/Projects/vllm-omni-val/issue5/runs/int8wo/`;
+condensed evidence in `evidence/rtx3090/`.
+
+## Helper-system follow-through (input to multi-model-helper-server #27 — not implemented here)
+
+- The 3090's 3–4 reference serving path remains blocked, now with a single
+  named suspect: the 8-bit Marlin W8A16 kernel path on sm_86 (this fork's
+  vllm 0.31.0 / torch 2.13.0 stack). Both quantized routes (online FP8,
+  offline int8 compressed-tensors with a verified checkpoint) collapse at the
+  same place. The unlock order for #27 candidacy is now: upstream Marlin
+  8-bit fix (or a non-Marlin W8A16 kernel on sm_86), then serving — capacity
+  and speed are already proven sufficient (4-ref at 46.4 s, 2.9× the sealed
+  Diffusers nocache baseline).
+- The two vllm-omni loader/factory fixes on this branch are prerequisites for
+  any compressed-tensors artifact serving under CPU offload and are
+  independent of the kernel defect.
+
+## Out-of-scope confirmation
+
+No upstream PRs; no W8A8/int4/NVFP4 artifacts built; no helper-system
+deployment evidence. Root-causing the Marlin 8-bit defect remains the
+separate lane (PR #4 carries the fp8 isolation; this branch adds the int8 +
+synthetic + bitwise-load isolation). The only code changes are the two
+serve-path fixes required to make the issue's plan steps executable at all.

+# Upstream report draft: Marlin 8-bit W8A16 yields NaN on sm_86 while the capability query accepts it
+
+Status: DRAFT — prepared for the #3 upstream lane; file when the owner calls it.
+Evidence: issue 5 round one (this directory) + PR #4's online-FP8 isolation.
+Reproduction: `probe/issue-5/marlin_isolate.py --synthetic` (no checkpoint needed).
+
+## Summary
+
+On vLLM 0.31.0 (torch 2.13.0+cu130, CUDA 13.4, RTX 3090 / sm_86, driver
+615.71.09), the 8-bit Marlin W8A16 path selected for compressed-tensors
+int8 weight-only checkpoints produces NaN outputs for every tested layer
+geometry, activation dtype, and input distribution — including synthetic
+random weights — even though `query_marlin_supported_quant_types` accepts
+`uint8b128` on the device and `choose_mp_linear_kernel` has no other W8A16
+candidate on sm_86 (Machete is sm90+, ExLlama int4-only).
+
+## Isolation chain (each step independently verified)
+
+1. **Checkpoint exonerated.** The int8 weight-only compressed-tensors
+   artifact round-trips to the sealed BF16 weights at ~1.1% rel-L2 using
+   compressed-tensors' own `unpack_from_int32` + dequantize
+   (`verify_artifact.py`, output in `evidence/rtx3090/artifact-verify.txt`).
+2. **Loading exonerated.** `marlin_isolate.py` loads the artifact's
+   `weight_packed` tensors through the production vLLM weight-loader
+   machinery into `QKVParallelLinear` / `RowParallelLinear` /
+   `ColumnParallelLinear` built exactly as the qwen_image_21 transformer
+   builds them; after loading, the parameters are **bitwise-equal** to the
+   checkpoint (including the fused q/k/v stacked shards), and scales are
+   finite before and after `process_weights_after_loading`.
+3. **Kernel indicted.** `layer(x)` is NaN for all four layer geometries
+   (fused 12288-out QKV, 4096-out row, 12288-out column, wide-in row), for
+   both bf16 and fp16 activations, at M=512.
+4. **Checkpoint-independence.** `--synthetic` (random int8 weights + random
+   per-channel scales, quantized and packed in-memory) reproduces the NaN
+   identically — no checkpoint, quantizer, or scale file involved.
+5. **Same-family serve evidence.** PR #4's online-FP8 path (also Marlin
+   W8A16 on sm_86) produces structurally broken output (≈97% transparent
+   RGBA, PSNR 7 dB vs BF16) across every reference count; transformer-only
+   FP8 isolates the collapse to the Marlin-quantized DiT. Two independent
+   quantizers, one kernel family.
+
+## Suspicion boundary (what is and is not pinned)
+
+The NaN arises between `gptq_marlin_repack`/`marlin_permute_scales` and
+`torch.ops.vllm.marlin_gemm` — the isolate stops at that boundary. Not yet
+dissected: whether the repacked weight bytes are wrong (repack/layout bug
+for 8-bit on sm_86) or the kernel itself miscomputes from correct bytes.
+The 4-bit Marlin path was not tested (out of scope for issue 5).
+
+## Minimal reproduction (from this repo)
+
+```sh
+python probe/issue-5/marlin_isolate.py --synthetic   # NaN, all geometries
+```
+
+Requires: vLLM 0.31.0 importable with CUDA visible; ~2 GiB GPU memory.
+Expected on an unaffected stack: rel-L2 ≈ 0.01 per layer.
+Observed on the affected stack: NaN for every layer, both activation dtypes
+(`evidence/rtx3090/marlin-isolate-synthetic.json`).
+
+## Context that may matter upstream
+
+- torch 2.13.0+cu130 / CUDA 13.4 is a bleeding-edge combination; if CI
+  covers Marlin int8 on sm_80/86 with an older stack, a torch/CUDA 13
+  interaction is a candidate.
+- The 4-bit Marlin path is heavily exercised by CI; the 8-bit
+  (`uint8b128`) path is comparatively new. If 8-bit Marlin support was
+  validated only on sm_80/sm_90, sm_86 may be untested.
+- The capability query accepting `uint8b128` on sm_86 while the kernel
+  yields NaN is the dispatch-overclaim angle: either the query or the
+  kernel is wrong for this cell.

+"""Issue 5 diagnostic: isolate the compressed-tensors W8A16 serve path per layer.
+
+Builds vLLM parallel linear layers exactly as the qwen_image_21 transformer
+does (fused QKV, row-parallel to_out, img_mlp proj/out), loads the int8
+artifact's packed tensors through the production weight-loader machinery,
+runs the Marlin repack (process_weights_after_loading) on the GPU, and
+compares each layer's forward output against a float32 reference computed
+from the artifact's own unpacked+dequantized weights.
+
+Expected rel-L2 when the load->repack->apply chain is correct: ~1-2%
+(int8 quantization error plus bf16 activation rounding). A large error
+pins corruption inside the serve path with the checkpoint already
+verified correct (verify_artifact.py).

+"""Issue 5: quantize the Qwen-Image-2.1 DiT to int8 weight-only (W8A16) and
+save it as a compressed-tensors pack-quantized checkpoint.
+
+Quantizes exactly the linears the vllm-omni transformer constructs with
+``quant_config`` — per-block attention (to_q/to_k/to_v/to_out.0) and
+img_mlp (proj/gate_layer/out) — and copies every boundary layer (img_in,
+txt_in, time_text_embed, modulation, norm_out, proj_out) plus the RMSNorm
+q/k scales through in BF16. Per-output-channel symmetric int8, scales in
+fp32, weights packed 4x uint8 (biased by 128) per int32 via
+compressed-tensors' own ``pack_to_int32`` so the artifact matches the
+llm-compressor storage convention bit for bit.
+
+The artifact is a full diffusers-layout model directory: the quantized
+``transformer/`` is real, the remaining components are symlinks into the
+sealed snapshot. ``transformer/config.json`` carries the quantization
+metadata wrapped per-component (``{"transformer": {...}}``) so vLLM-Omni's
+auto-detection quantizes the DiT only — the text encoder and VAE stay BF16.
+
+A MANIFEST.json (inputs, versions, per-file sha256, quantization stats) is
+written beside the weights. Nothing here enters Git; the artifact lives
+under the helper-system state root.

+
+> Text-guided single-image editing with the native JoyAI-Image-Edit diffusion pipeline
+
+## Summary
+
+- Vendor: JD / JoyImage Team
+- Model: `jdopensource/JoyAI-Image-Edit-Diffusers`
+- Task: Text-guided single-image editing
+- Mode: Offline inference and OpenAI-compatible online serving
+- Maintainer: Community
+
+## When to use this recipe
+
+Use this recipe when you want to run JoyAI-Image-Edit through the shared
+image-to-image examples with a known-good baseline configuration. JoyAI-Image-Edit
+is a large single-image editing model: it requires one reference image per
+request, snaps requested sizes to Joy's supported resolution buckets, and has a
+validated 1024x1024 baseline on an 80 GB NVIDIA GPU.

+## Hardware Support
+
+This recipe documents the CUDA configuration used to validate the PR's JoyAI
+integration. Other GPU types should be treated as unvalidated until you rerun
+the smoke and parity checks below.
+
+## GPU
+
+### 1x NVIDIA H800 PCIe 80GB
+
+#### Environment
+
+- OS: Linux
+- Python: `3.12.3`
+- Driver / runtime: NVIDIA driver `580.82.07`, CUDA runtime `13.0`
+- PyTorch: `2.11.0+cu130`
+- Diffusers: `0.39.0.dev0` with `JoyImageEditPipeline` available
+- vLLM: `0.21.0`
+- vLLM-Omni: use the commit you are deploying from
+- GPU: NVIDIA H800 PCIe, 81559 MiB
+
+#### Online Serving
+
+Start the OpenAI-compatible server from the repository root:
+
+```bash
+CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0 \
+PYTORCH_CUDA_ALLOC_CONF=expandable_segments:True \
+vllm serve jdopensource/JoyAI-Image-Edit-Diffusers \
+  --omni \
+  --port 8092 \
+  --init-timeout 1200
+```
+
+The server is ready when the log shows `Application startup complete.`
+
+If you need extra GPU headroom, use one of the memory-saving variants below.
+These variants are useful on tighter 80 GB deployments, but the latency and
+quality numbers in this recipe are from the baseline command above.
+
+```bash
+# Pipeline-level CPU offload for large components.
+CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0 \
+PYTORCH_CUDA_ALLOC_CONF=expandable_segments:True \
+vllm serve jdopensource/JoyAI-Image-Edit-Diffusers \
+  --omni \
+  --port 8092 \
+  --init-timeout 1200 \
+  --enable-cpu-offload
+```
+
+```bash
+# DiT blockwise offload. This trades latency for lower peak GPU memory.
+CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0 \
+PYTORCH_CUDA_ALLOC_CONF=expandable_segments:True \
+vllm serve jdopensource/JoyAI-Image-Edit-Diffusers \
+  --omni \
+  --port 8092 \
+  --init-timeout 1200 \
+  --enable-layerwise-offload
+```
+
+#### Online Verification
+
+Download the public JoyAI plate example:
+
+```bash
+wget -O /tmp/joy_plate.jpg \
+  https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jd-opensource/JoyAI-Image/main/test_images/test_1.jpg
+```
+
+Send one image and one prompt. JoyAI-Image-Edit supports exactly one input image
+per request.
+
+```bash
+IMG_B64=$(base64 -w0 /tmp/joy_plate.jpg)
+
+curl -s http://localhost:8092/v1/chat/completions \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d "$(jq -n --arg img "$IMG_B64" '{
+    messages: [{
+      role: "user",
+      content: [
+        {type: "text", text: "Turn the plate blue"},
+        {type: "image_url", image_url: {url: ("data:image/jpeg;base64," + $img)}}
+      ]
+    }],
+    extra_body: {
+      height: 1024,
+      width: 1024,
+      num_inference_steps: 30,
+      guidance_scale: 4.0,
+      seed: 0
+    }
+  }')" \
+  | jq -r '.choices[0].message.content[0].image_url.url' \
+  | cut -d',' -f2- \
+  | base64 -d > /tmp/joyai_image_edit_plate_online.png
+```
+
+Expected result: `/tmp/joyai_image_edit_plate_online.png` is a 1024x1024 PNG
+where the plate color changes to blue while the surrounding scene is mostly
+preserved. Use a client timeout of at least 600 seconds for first-run or cold
+server checks.
+
+#### Offline Command
+
+Run the same smoke case without starting a server:
+
+```bash
+CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0 \
+PYTORCH_CUDA_ALLOC_CONF=expandable_segments:True \
+python examples/offline_inference/image_to_image/image_edit.py \
+  --model jdopensource/JoyAI-Image-Edit-Diffusers \
+  --image /tmp/joy_plate.jpg \
+  --prompt "Turn the plate blue" \
+  --negative-prompt "" \
+  --height 1024 \
+  --width 1024 \
+  --num-inference-steps 30 \
+  --guidance-scale 4.0 \
+  --seed 0 \
+  --enforce-eager \
+  --init-timeout 1200 \
+  --output /tmp/joyai_image_edit_plate_offline.png
+```
+
+For a local checkpoint mirror, replace `--model` with the local model directory.
+The PR validation used the same command shape with
+`/autodl-fs/data/joyai_models/JoyAI-Image-Edit-Diffusers`.
+
+#### Validated Results
+
+The table below is from the 1x H800 PCIe environment above. Resolution requests
+were snapped to the Joy 1024x1024 bucket, batch size was 1, and CFG was 4.0.
+`vLLM peak` is the observed peak GPU memory for the vLLM-Omni run.
+
+| Case | Steps | Seed | vLLM latency | Diffusers latency | vLLM peak | Diffusers peak | SSIM | PSNR |

+| `object_move_seed0` | 40 | 0 | 68.06 s | 69.32 s | 57.52 GiB | 57.28 GiB | 0.9969 | 46.1138 |
+| `object_rotation_seed0` | 40 | 0 | 67.94 s | 69.28 s | 57.52 GiB | 57.28 GiB | 0.9898 | 35.5365 |
+| `camera_control_seed0` | 40 | 0 | 68.15 s | 69.51 s | 57.52 GiB | 57.28 GiB | 0.9952 | 41.7697 |
+
+#### Output Size Behavior
+
+JoyAI-Image-Edit does not use arbitrary image sizes directly. The pipeline maps
+the input or requested `height` / `width` to the nearest supported Joy bucket,
+then resizes and center-crops the reference image to that bucket before
+denoising.
+
+- Provide both `height` and `width`, or omit both.
+- For square outputs, request `height=1024` and `width=1024`.
+- A request such as `512x512` is also square and is snapped to the 1024x1024 Joy
+  bucket, so the final image size will not match the literal request.
+- Non-square requests are snapped to the nearest aspect-ratio bucket supported
+  by the model.
+
+#### Guidance Parameters
+
+Use `guidance_scale` for JoyAI classifier-free guidance, matching Diffusers.
+The pipeline defaults to `4.0` when the parameter is omitted. `true_cfg_scale`
+remains supported as an alias; if both parameters are supplied, their values
+must match. Values greater than `1.0` enable CFG; an omitted negative prompt is
+treated as an empty string. Values at or below `1.0` disable CFG.
+
+The offline example passes `--guidance-scale 4.0` explicitly for clarity; if it
+is omitted, the JoyAI pipeline uses the same `4.0` default.
+
+#### Known Limitations
+
+- Single image only: JoyAI-Image-Edit rejects requests with zero or multiple
+  input images.
+- Single prompt only: batched prompt requests are rejected.
+- HSDP is not supported yet. Starting with HSDP enabled raises a `ValueError`
+  before the generic HSDP setup reaches the transformer.
+- Tensor Parallelism is not supported yet. Keep `tensor_parallel_size=1`;
+  larger values raise a `ValueError` during pipeline initialization.
+- LoRA is not included for this JoyAI pipeline.
+- Cache-DiT and TeaCache are not included for this JoyAI pipeline. Do not treat
+  the generic image-to-image cache flags as validated JoyAI acceleration knobs.
+- Text encoder quantization is not included.
+- The validation above is CUDA-only; ROCm and NPU configurations are not
+  documented as supported by this recipe.

+# Kandinsky 6 TI2VA — H100 (v1, single GPU, CPU offload)
+
+> Text/image-to-video-and-audio serving with Kandinsky 6 Pro
+
+## Summary
+
+- Vendor: Kandinsky Lab ([`kandinskylab/Kandinsky-6.0-Pro-5s-Diffusers`](https://huggingface.co/kandinskylab/Kandinsky-6.0-Pro-5s-Diffusers))
+- Model: Kandinsky 6 Pro (TI2VA — text/image-to-video-and-audio)
+- Task: Joint text/image-to-video-and-audio generation
+- Mode: Offline (`Omni(...)`) and online serving with the OpenAI-compatible
+  `/v1/videos` API
+- Hardware: 1x NVIDIA H100 80GB HBM3 with component-level CPU offload
+- Maintainer: Community
+
+## When to use this recipe
+
+Use this recipe to serve Kandinsky 6's TI2VA pipeline — a single DiT that
+jointly denoises video and audio latents, conditioned on a text prompt and,
+optionally, a reference image (image-to-video). Tensor parallel, CFG
+parallel, Ulysses, ring, pipeline parallel, HSDP, layerwise offload,
+MagCache, TeaCache, Cache-DiT, FP8, and tiled VAE patch parallel are wired.
+NaviCache and a registered NABLA backend are not. TeaCache coefficients are
+uncalibrated. See "Known limitations".
+
+## Supported model contract
+
+| Task | Entrypoint | Input | Output |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| Text-to-video-and-audio | `vllm serve kandinskylab/Kandinsky-6.0-Pro-5s-Diffusers --omni` / `Omni(model="kandinskylab/Kandinsky-6.0-Pro-5s-Diffusers")` | text prompt | synchronized MP4 (H.264 video + AAC 44.1 kHz mono audio) |
+| Image-to-video-and-audio | same | text prompt + reference image | synchronized MP4, first frame conditioned on the reference image |
+
+- Audio generation is on by default (`sample_audio=True`); pass
+  `extra_args.sample_audio=false` to generate video only.
+- Batch size is 1 request per generation call (upstream limitation of the
+  ported denoise loop; concurrent requests are still served by vLLM-Omni's
+  own request scheduler, just not batched together within one DiT forward
+  pass yet).
+- Serving defaults follow the Pro production geometry registered in
+  `vllm_omni/model_extras/kandinsky6.py`: **864x480, 125 frames @ 24 fps
+  (5.2 s), 50 steps, CFG 5.0**. Any `4k+1` frame count and 16-divisible
+  resolution can be requested explicitly via `height`/`width`/`num_frames`/
+  `num_inference_steps` — the model is *not* fixed-duration.
+- Audio is always 44.1 kHz; its length is derived from the video duration.
+- Negative prompt defaults to the pipeline's built-in K6 negative prompt
+  when omitted.

+## Hardware
+
+- Accelerator model and per-device memory: NVIDIA H100 80GB HBM3
+  (driver 570.133.20)
+- Number of devices: 1 (multi-GPU tensor parallelism is implemented in the
+  transformer's linear layers but not yet validated end-to-end)
+- Device interconnect: N/A (single-device path)
+- Host memory: 1.4 TB installed; the bf16 DiT (~56 GB) plus the text
+  encoders are staged on the host under `--enable-cpu-offload`, so budget
+  at least ~90 GB of free host RAM.
+- Qualification scope: single-GPU T2VA at the Pro default geometry and at a
+  reduced smoke geometry, offline and via `vllm serve`. Numbers below were
+  measured once on the shared box described above; treat them as
+  indicative, not as a benchmark.
+
+## Software environment
+
+- OS: Ubuntu 22.04.5 LTS
+- Python: 3.12.13
+- Driver / runtime: CUDA 12.9 (torch 2.13.0+cu129)
+- vLLM version: 0.29.0
+- vLLM-Omni version or commit: this repository, `vllm_omni/diffusion/models/kandinsky6/`
+- diffusers 0.40.0, transformers 5.14.1
+- Attention: FlashAttention-3 on this box (`flash_attn_interface`). The Pro
+  timings below use it. Without FA3, `attention_engine: "auto"` falls back
+  to PyTorch SDPA; an earlier SDPA Pro run on the same GPU was 26.9 s/it
+  and 1377 s.
+
+## Weights
+
+`Kandinsky6TI2VAPipeline._load_components` loads the public Diffusers layout
+from [`kandinskylab/Kandinsky-6.0-Pro-5s-Diffusers`](https://huggingface.co/kandinskylab/Kandinsky-6.0-Pro-5s-Diffusers)
+(`model_index.json`, `transformer/`, `vae/`, `text_encoder/`, `tokenizer/`,
+`text_encoder_2/`, `tokenizer_2/`, `audio_vae/`, `scheduler/`). Pass that
+repo id (or a local snapshot of it) to `vllm serve` / `Omni(model=...)`.
+The Hub repo is gated; export `HF_TOKEN` if download returns 401.
+
+A raw Kandinsky 6 weight tree is not required. If you already have a local
+Diffusers-layout snapshot, point `--model` at that directory instead of the
+Hub id.
+
+Each weight folder is loaded on its own (`transformer/`, `vae/`, `text_encoder/`, `text_encoder_2/`, `audio_vae/`). The DiT is built with initialization skipped, then the framework loader fills it from `transformer/`.
+
+## Command
+
+```bash
+vllm serve kandinskylab/Kandinsky-6.0-Pro-5s-Diffusers --omni \
+  --host 127.0.0.1 --port 8091 \
+  --num-gpus 1 --enable-cpu-offload
+```
+
+`--enable-cpu-offload` enables model-level offload with mutual exclusion
+between the transformer and the two text encoders (they never co-reside on
+the GPU). Without it the bf16 DiT (~56 GB) plus Qwen2.5-VL-7B (~16 GB) plus
+the VAEs and activations do not fit an 80 GB device at the Pro geometry.
+
+Offline (writes an MP4 with the audio track muxed in):

+  --model kandinskylab/Kandinsky-6.0-Pro-5s-Diffusers \
+  --prompt "A golden retriever runs along a sunny beach, waves crashing, cinematic footage" \
+  --seed 42 --enable-cpu-offload --output kandinsky6_t2va.mp4
+# Video only: add --extra-body '{"sample_audio": false}'
+```
+
+Image-to-video-and-audio uses the shared image-to-video example:
+
+```bash
+python examples/offline_inference/image_to_video/image_to_video.py \

+  --prompt "A golden retriever runs along a sunny beach, waves crashing, cinematic footage" \
+  --seed 42 --enable-cpu-offload --output kandinsky6_i2va.mp4
+```
+
+The generic scripts pick up the Pro defaults from
+`vllm_omni/model_extras/kandinsky6.py`.

+
+Audio is peak-normalized to full scale by default; pass
+`extra_args.audio_normalization="clip"` to keep the raw decoded amplitude
+instead.
+
+## Notes
+
+- Key flags: `extra_args.sample_audio` (bool, default true),
+  `extra_args.audio_normalization` (`"normalize"` default | `"clip"`),
+  `extra_args.visual_cond_scheme` (defaults to `pretrain` for text-only,
+  `tail_cond_first_frame` when an image is supplied).
+- The post-process payload is a flat dict (`video`, `audio` as float32 in
+  `[-1, 1]`, `audio_sample_rate=44100`, `fps`) so the serving muxer picks
+  up the correct sample rate.
+- Acceleration that is wired:
+  - Tensor parallel: the DiT loader narrows full checkpoint tensors onto
+    each rank's `ColumnParallelLinear` / `RowParallelLinear` shard.
+  - CFG parallel (`--cfg-parallel-size 2`): rank 0 runs the conditional
+    DiT, rank 1 the unconditional one, then both all-gather video and
+    audio velocities.
+  - HSDP: `_hsdp_shard_conditions` covers the indexed transformer blocks.
+    Do not combine with tensor parallel.
+  - Sequence parallel: visual tokens (and their RoPE) are sharded;
+    Ulysses all-to-all runs inside visual self-attention, Ring uses the
+    PyTorch ring kernel. Text stays replicated. Audio queries gather the
+    full visual sequence.
+  - Pipeline parallel: `visual_transformer_blocks` are split with
+    `PPMissingLayer`. Embeddings stay on the first stage, output heads on
+    the last. Activations and the final velocity are sent between stages.
+  - VAE patch parallel: Hunyuan decode splits the latent width when
+    `vae_patch_parallel_size > 1` and tiling is on.
+  - MagCache / TeaCache / Cache-DiT are registered. MagCache reuses the
+    Pro `mag_ratios`. TeaCache coefficients are **uncalibrated** (copied
+    from Qwen-Image) so skips are not quality-neutral. Cache-DiT targets
+    `visual_transformer_blocks` only and falls back to the same step cache
+    if the fused `(video, audio)` block return is rejected.
+  - FP8: online quantization runs in the DiT loader via
+    `process_weights_after_loading` after the sharded assign.
+  - `attention_engine: auto` uses FlashAttention-3 when
+    `flash_attn_interface` imports.
+- Known limitations:
+  - NABLA sparse attention is not registered in the framework attention
+    backend. NaviCache is not wired.
+  - Prompt expansion, NF4 Qwen, and the super-resolution cascade are not
+    part of this port.
+  - Distributed layerwise offload still uses one process unless another
+    parallel axis sets `world_size > 1` (for example tensor parallel).
+  - `_load_components` loads the Diffusers checkpoint directly rather than the
+    streamed-prefetch loader.

+`MOSS-TTS-Local-Transformer-v1.5` defaults to the native MRV2 pipeline on
+CUDA, with the original Local projection and sampler. When
+`nvidia-cuda-mps-control` is on `PATH`, it starts private full-quota MPS.
+GPUs with at least 140 GiB total memory use the C128 system profile with
+prefix caching, Triton backbone attention, bounded codec first-chunk decode,
+native Torch sampler compilation and dense codec graph buckets through 128. Its Talker KV budget is 32 GiB; smaller GPUs or a failed memory
+query use C64 with utilization-based memory budgets. When the MPS executable
+is unavailable, the automatic default is C64 MRV2 without MPS. NPU, XPU,
+ROCm and MUSA retain V1. Explicit deploy configs override automatic selection.
+
+```bash
+CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0 OMP_NUM_THREADS=1 \
+vllm serve OpenMOSS-Team/MOSS-TTS-Local-Transformer-v1.5 --omni \
+  --stage-init-timeout 1200 --init-timeout 1500

+
+Use `--deploy-config vllm_omni/deploy/moss_tts_local_v1.yaml` to select the
+previous V1 profile explicitly. C128's batch-prefill and direct-token switches
+remain confined to the throughput profile; they are not enabled in C64.
+
+The same `moss_tts_local_mrv2_optimized.yaml` system profile can be selected
+explicitly. It retains the original Local depth projection and sampling algorithm.
+The codec admits fast first chunks below 32 active streams; crowded streams use
+the regular decoder with a dispatch target of 16 and a maximum wait of 6 ms.
+This preserves the low-load first-audio path while coalescing high-load work.
+`local_compile_audio_sampler: true` in the Talker HF overrides compiles the native
+Torch sampler; explicit request generators use the original helper. Set the
+override to `false` in a deployment file to disable that compilation. The setting
+is specific to this C128 system profile.
+Both stages share one GPU, with a 32 GiB Talker KV budget; this profile requires H200-class memory and

+Evaluate WER, speaker similarity and streaming latency for your workload;
+throughput gains do not establish quality equivalence. Do not apply partial
+MPS SM quotas: BF16 GEMM outputs were observed incomplete in that configuration
+on the validation environment. MPS uses an owned control socket or an
+explicitly supplied operator socket; only the owned daemon is stopped at shutdown.
+
+The explicit C64 MRV2 and capped-C128 throughput profiles remain available.

+
+## Summary
+
+- Vendor: Qwen
+- Model: `Qwen/Qwen-Image-2.1`
+- Task: Text-to-image generation and image-conditioned generation (editing)
+- Mode: Offline inference and online serving with optional step-wise execution
+- Maintainer: Community
+
+> **Model id:** `Qwen/Qwen-Image-2.1` follows the reference diffusers
+> documentation and may change before the official release — the final
+> checkpoint name is subject to the official release.
+
+## When to use this recipe
+
+Use this recipe as a starting point for running `Qwen/Qwen-Image-2.1`. A single
+pipeline class, `QwenImage21Pipeline`, handles both pure text-to-image requests
+(no condition image) and image-conditioned requests with up to 4 condition
+images: prompt and condition images are encoded together by a Qwen3-VL text
+encoder, so editing-style requests go through the same serving path as
+text-to-image.

+## Offline Inference
+
+### Text-to-image
+
+```bash
+python examples/offline_inference/text_to_image/text_to_image.py \
+  --model Qwen/Qwen-Image-2.1 \
+  --prompt "A ceramic teapot on a wooden table" \
+  --output qwen_image_21_t2i.png \
+  --num-inference-steps 50 \
+  --cfg-scale 1.0
+```
+
+### Image-conditioned generation (editing)
+
+```bash
+python examples/offline_inference/image_to_image/image_edit.py \
+  --model Qwen/Qwen-Image-2.1 \
+  --color-format RGBA \
+  --seed 42 \
+  --image qwen_bear.png \
+  --prompt "Let this mascot dance under the moon, surrounded by floating stars" \
+  --output qwen_image_21_edit.png \
+  --num-inference-steps 50 \
+  --cfg-scale 1.0
+```
+
+or via the bundled launcher:
+
+```bash
+bash examples/offline_inference/image_to_image/run_qwen_image_21.sh
+```
+
+Up to 4 condition images can be passed via `--image`:
+
+```bash
+python examples/offline_inference/image_to_image/image_edit.py \
+  --model Qwen/Qwen-Image-2.1 \
+  --color-format RGBA \
+  --seed 42 \
+  --image input1.png input2.png \
+  --prompt "Combine these images into a single scene" \
+  --output qwen_image_21_multi.png \
+  --num-inference-steps 50 \
+  --cfg-scale 1.0
+```
+
+Use `--color-format RGBA` to preserve transparency in condition images. The
+shared example otherwise loads inputs as RGB. Add `--width` and `--height`
+(multiples of 32) to set the output size; when omitted, Qwen-Image 2.1 derives
+it from the last condition image's aspect ratio at approximately 1024×1024.
+Use `--num-outputs-per-prompt` to generate multiple images and `--vae-use-tiling`
+to reduce VAE memory usage. The launcher accepts these options as well.
+
+## Online Serving
+
+Start the server:
+
+```bash
+vllm serve Qwen/Qwen-Image-2.1 --omni --port 8091
+```
+
+To enable the step-wise runtime:
+
+```bash
+vllm serve Qwen/Qwen-Image-2.1 --omni \
+  --port 8091 \
+  --step-execution \
+  --max-num-seqs 8
+```
+
+Step execution batches compatible requests at the same KV-cache phase. The
+pipeline tags every request with a `batch_compatibility_key` (conditioning
+mode plus condition-image layout), so a newly arriving request that would
+otherwise join a batch already past its first denoising step is isolated by
+the scheduler and deferred until the in-flight batch drains — it no longer
+fails the whole batch. `--max-num-seqs` controls batch capacity.
+
+### CUDA Graph decode
+
+Qwen-Image-2.1 automatically uses CUDA Graph for supported fixed-shape denoising
+decode steps when `enable_cuda_graph_decode=True` (the default) and
+`enforce_eager=False`. Prefill remains eager. This works with both request
+execution and `--step-execution`.
+
+To disable graph capture while keeping the rest of the compilation setup:
+
+```bash
+vllm serve Qwen/Qwen-Image-2.1 --omni --no-enable-cuda-graph-decode
+```
+
+The same control is available as `Omni(..., enable_cuda_graph_decode=False)`
+and as `enable_cuda_graph_decode: false` on a stage in the deployment YAML.
+`--enforce-eager` / `enforce_eager: true` remains the broader switch: it
+disables both graph capture and automatic `torch.compile`. The two
+optimizations stack: the DiT blocks are regionally `torch.compile`'d and
+graph capture records the compiled (fused) kernels, while inductor's own
+cudagraphs stay disabled so the two graph layers never nest. Measured on a
+single H200 (1024×1024, 50 steps, seed 42, BF16, `true_cfg_scale=1.0`,
+warmup 1 + median of 3): compile+graph **5.93 s**, compile-only **6.88 s**,
+graph-only **9.52 s**, eager **8.28 s** end-to-end per image; combo and
+compile-only vs eager are **38.10 dB** PSNR (compile fusion drift), and
+graph-only vs eager is bit-identical.
+
+The autoregressive engine's `compilation_config.cudagraph_mode` does not
+control this diffusion path; use `enable_cuda_graph_decode` (or
+`enforce_eager` for everything) to force eager decode execution.
+
+TP/SP/ring parallelism, HSDP, cache hooks, quantized KV caches,
+dynamic LoRA, padded text masks, and a second in-flight request whose cache
+aliases an already-owned graph key fall back to eager decode.
+Model-level CPU offload does not disable decode graphs while
+`enable_cuda_graph_decode` stays on (the default). DiT weights stay on fixed
+device storage so captured pointers remain valid, and that storage is not
+released while the text encoder runs. Pass `--no-enable-cuda-graph-decode`
+(or `enable_cuda_graph_decode: false`) for the eager offload path, which
+moves DiT weights off the device and frees that VRAM. Peak memory for the
+default graph-plus-offload combination was not re-measured in this PR.
+Graphs keep separate entries for different image layouts and copy
+request-owned prefix K/V into static buffers before replay; each graph key
+has a single live owner at a time, so concurrent same-shape requests never
+overwrite each other's prefix. Those buffers require additional memory; graph
+entries are bounded by the transformer's cache limit.

+### Verification

+```
+
+For image-conditioned generation, pass condition images through the
+OpenAI-compatible multimodal endpoint (`/v1/chat/completions` with
+`image_url` content parts, or `/v1/images/edits`), same as
+[`Qwen-Image-Edit.md`](./Qwen-Image-Edit.md).

+
+| Parameter | Default | Notes |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| `true_cfg_scale` | 1.0 | Disables the negative-prompt branch by default. Set above 1 with a `negative_prompt` to enable true CFG. Qwen-Image 2.1 supports true CFG only — there is no `guidance_scale` parameter. |
+| `num_inference_steps` | 50 | Number of denoising steps. |
+| `height` / `width` | 1024×1024 | Must be multiples of 32. For image-conditioned requests, leaving them unset derives the output size from the last condition image's aspect ratio at ~1024×1024. |
+| `negative_prompt` | None | Ignored at the default CFG scale of 1.0; used only when `true_cfg_scale > 1`. |
+| condition images | — | Up to 4 input images per request; more than 4 raises an error. |
+| `seed` | — | Fix for reproducible outputs. |
+
+The default CFG scale of 1.0 runs only the positive-prompt branch at each
+denoising step. To enable negative-prompt guidance, explicitly set
+`--cfg-scale` (offline) or `true_cfg_scale` (API) above 1 and provide a
+negative prompt. This changes the generated output as well as compute cost.
+
+### Prefix KV cache
+
+The transformer caches the text/condition-image prefix across denoising steps
+(a prefill/decode split keyed by CFG branch). The cache is enabled
+automatically when the checkpoint declares `causal_condition: true` and is
+re-created per generation, so no state leaks between requests. It changes the
+compute path — cached prefix vs. full recompute at every step — so exact
+numerical reproduction against a no-cache reference (e.g. the diffusers
+pipeline) requires matching the cache setting on both sides. The prefix KV
+cache is orthogonal to weight quantization and works unchanged under FP8.
+
+### FP8 quantization
+
+Online FP8 quantization of the transformer is supported; the fused
+`to_qkv` projections load correctly, and the prefix KV cache path is
+unaffected. Only block-internal linears are eligible — the boundary
+projections (`img_in`/`txt_in`/`modulation`/`proj_out`/`time_text_embed`) stay
+in BF16 by construction:
+
+```bash
+python examples/offline_inference/text_to_image/text_to_image.py \
+  --model Qwen/Qwen-Image-2.1 \
+  --prompt "A ceramic teapot on a wooden table" \
+  --output qwen_image_21_fp8.png \
+  --num-inference-steps 50 --cfg-scale 1.0 \
+  --quantization fp8 --ignored-layers "img_mlp"
+```
+
+`ignored_layers` entries are matched as name patterns for this model (e.g.
+`img_mlp` matches every block's `img_mlp.proj`/`img_mlp.gate_layer`/
+`img_mlp.out`); exact full prefixes like
+`transformer.transformer_blocks.3.attn.to_qkv` also work.
+
+A per-module sensitivity sweep (fixed prompt embeds / latent / timestep, 5
+timesteps across the trajectory, relative L2 of the noise prediction vs BF16)
+ranks the groups: `img_mlp` is the most sensitive (3.8% max error on its own,
+driven by `img_mlp.proj` 2.8% and `img_mlp.out` 2.5%), then `attn.to_out`
+(2.7%), then `attn.to_qkv` (1.6%); errors are largest at the late (low-sigma)
+steps. End-to-end on H200, single GPU, same prompt as Quality Comparison
+(`"A ceramic teapot on a wooden table"`, 1024×1024, 50 steps, seed 42,
+eager):
+
+| Config | Quantized block linears | PSNR vs BF16 | Steady-state time/image | Peak memory |
+| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
+| BF16 | 0 / 160 | — | **7.34 s** | **36.9 GB** |
+| FP8 all layers | 160 / 160 | **33.0 dB** | **6.06 s** | **30.4 GB** |
+| FP8, `ignored_layers=["img_mlp"]` | 64 / 160 | **34.3 dB** | **6.98 s** | **34.9 GB** |
+
+Keeping `img_mlp` in BF16 is still the higher-fidelity DiT setting vs
+all-layer FP8. On H200, all-layer FP8 is both leaner and faster than BF16
+at this shape.
+
+## Quantization
+
+Online FP8 is supported per component via `quantization_config`:
+
+```python
+from vllm_omni import Omni
+
+omni = Omni(
+    model="Qwen/Qwen-Image-2.1",
+    quantization_config={
+        # DiT: skip the sensitive image-stream MLPs if quality regresses.
+        "transformer": {"method": "fp8", "ignored_layers": ["img_mlp"]},
+        # Qwen3-VL text encoder: only the language-model linear layers are
+        # quantized; the vision tower and the (unused) LM head stay BF16.
+        "text_encoder": {"method": "fp8"},
+    },
+)
+```
+
+Either component can be quantized on its own. Measured on H200 at 1024×1024
+(seed 42, 50 steps, same teapot prompt, eager): text-encoder FP8 lowers peak
+GPU memory from **36.9 GB** (BF16) to **30.4 GB** (−6.5 GB); T2I PSNR vs BF16
+**32.1 dB**. DiT FP8-all is **30.4 GB** / **6.06 s**. Combined DiT+text-encoder
+FP8 was not re-measured on H200. The edit path routes condition images through
+the BF16 vision tower, so it is unaffected by text-encoder FP8. See
+[`docs/user_guide/quantization/fp8.md`](../../docs/user_guide/quantization/fp8.md)
+for the scope rules.
+
+### FP8 prefix KV storage
+
+The cached prefix K/V can be stored in FP8 E4M3 (with per-token-per-head fp32
+scales), halving the prefix-cache memory — relevant for long prompts (up to
+8192 text tokens) and up to 4 condition images (~4096 latent tokens each).
+Prefill quantizes once; decode dequantizes per step, so attention compute is
+unchanged. Enable it through the model-specific `extras` config (e.g. in the
+deploy YAML's stage `extras` or as an `Omni(...)` engine kwarg):
+
+```yaml
+extras:
+  prefix_kv_cache_dtype: "fp8"
+```
+
+Accepted values: `"fp8"` / `"fp8_e4m3"` (K and V quantized), `"fp8_v"` (V
+only — K stays in the native dtype), and `None` / `"auto"` (default, native
+dtype — behavior unchanged). This is independent of
+`diffusion_kv_cache_dtype`, which quantizes attention Q/K/V *compute* per
+forward pass on supported backends.
+
+Measured on one NVIDIA H200, T2I 1024x1024 (seed 42, 50 steps, true CFG 4.0,
+eager, PSNR vs. the bf16 baseline on the same GPU): **`"fp8"` 34.2 dB**,
+**`"fp8_v"` 44.0 dB**. The error is dominated by
+K quantization: post-RoPE keys are the precision-sensitive half of the
+cache, so `"fp8_v"` buys back about 9.8 dB at 75% (instead of 50%) of the original
+cache size. The residual error is inherent e4m3 precision accumulated
+coherently over the denoising trajectory; finer scale granularity
+(per-tensor/per-head/per-token were compared) or Hadamard-rotated V did not
+improve it. The saving scales with prefix length. These sizes are calculated at the
+limit (8192 text tokens + 4 condition images, ~24.6k prefix tokens), not
+measured on the 1024 T2I run above: ~12.9 GB per CFG branch in bf16, ~6.6 GB
+in `"fp8"` and ~9.7 GB in `"fp8_v"`. That is where this option matters. Treat it as an opt-in for
+memory-bound long-prompt / multi-image workloads, not a free lunch;
+`"fp8_v"` is the better default trade-off when quality matters.
+
+Note: a quantized prefix cache is not CUDA-graph capturable — requests using
+this option stay on the eager decode path (a warning is logged once).
+
+### Why not the scheduler-managed paged KV (`DiffusionKVCacheMode.PAGED_SCHEDULER`)?
+
+Evaluated and deliberately not adopted (see the `qwen21-p0-kv` commit message
+for the full analysis): the paged scheduler targets *cross-request* KV
+management — a statically sized page pool, block sharing/dedup, and eviction —
+whereas this prefix cache lives exactly as long as one generation and is
+sized once per request. Migrating would require routing decode attention
+through the worker paged adapter (writing fresh target K/V into pages every
+step), per-request page tables, and re-validating the block-causal
+piecewise-span masking and Ulysses/CFG constraints, for no memory benefit over
+the per-request dense tensors. The FP8 storage above captures the actual
+memory win at ~1% of the integration cost.
+
+## Quality Comparison (head vs diffusers)
+
+The reference is the diffusers Qwen-Image 2.1 pipeline
+([huggingface/diffusers#14804](https://github.com/huggingface/diffusers/pull/14804)).
+Both sides must pin the same checkpoint, inputs, seed, precision (BF16), and
+hardware.
+
+vLLM-Omni (this recipe):
+
+```bash
+python examples/offline_inference/text_to_image/text_to_image.py \
+  --model Qwen/Qwen-Image-2.1 \
+  --prompt "A ceramic teapot on a wooden table" \
+  --seed 42 \
+  --output qwen_image_21_vllm_omni.png \
+  --num-inference-steps 50 \
+  --cfg-scale 1.0
+```
+
+diffusers reference:
+
+```python
+import torch
+from diffusers import QwenImage21Pipeline  # diffusers PR #14804
+
+pipe = QwenImage21Pipeline.from_pretrained(
+    "Qwen/Qwen-Image-2.1", torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16
+).to("cuda")
+image = pipe(
+    prompt="A ceramic teapot on a wooden table",
+    num_inference_steps=50,
+    true_cfg_scale=1.0,
+    generator=torch.Generator(device="cuda").manual_seed(42),
+    height=1024,
+    width=1024,
+).images[0]
+image.save("qwen_image_21_diffusers.png")
+```
+
+| Metric | vLLM-Omni | diffusers (#14804) | Status |
+| --- | --- | --- | --- |
+| Output image (1024×1024, 50 steps, seed 42, BF16, H200) | generated (eager + default CUDA-graph) | generated | measured |
+| PSNR / LPIPS vs reference | eager vs Diffusers **47.17 dB**; **default compile+graph** vs Diffusers **38.02 dB**; **default compile+graph** vs eager **38.10 dB** | — | measured (H200) |
+| Latency (time/image, same GPU, H200) | **default compile+graph** **6.04 s** (120.8 ms/step); eager **7.31 s** (146.2 ms/step) | **7.74 s** (154.9 ms/step) | measured |
+
+The prefix KV cache changes the compute path (cached prefix vs. full recompute
+at every step), so exact numerical parity is not expected; match the cache
+setting on both sides or compare with PSNR/LPIPS rather than exact pixels.
+Eager stays numerically close to Diffusers (~47 dB). The **default** serving
+path stacks regional `torch.compile` with CUDA-graph decode; on H200 that
+combo lands at **~38.1 dB** vs eager (~1.21× on the Quality Comparison timed
+run). Graph-only vs eager is bit-identical; the ~38 dB drift is the compile
+fusion, not CUDA-graph replay. See "CUDA Graph decode" for the four-mode
+H200 breakdown (warmup 1 + median of 3).
+
+Parity / feature measurements (same prompt/seed/steps/CFG, BF16, eager decode
+unless noted; 4× NVIDIA H200):
+
+- [x] TP=2/4 output parity vs single-card — measured (1024×1024): TP1 vs TP2
+  **39.32 dB**, TP1 vs TP4 **38.37 dB**, TP2 vs TP4 **45.77 dB**. Latency:
+  TP1 **7.30 s**, TP2 **4.89 s**, TP4 **5.12 s** per image.
+- [x] VAE tiling vs non-tiled decode — measured: 1024×1024 nontile vs
+  `--vae-use-tiling` **43.55 dB** (peak mem ~37.7 GB → ~32.7 GB); 2048×2048
+  nontile vs tiled **44.14 dB** (peak mem ~57.9 GB → ~33.3 GB; gen ~36.8 s vs
+  ~37.1 s).
+- [x] CUDA-graph four-mode vs eager — measured on H200 (1024×1024, 50 steps,
+  seed 42, BF16, warmup 1 + median of 3): compile+graph **5.93 s**,
+  compile-only **6.88 s**, graph-only **9.52 s**, eager **8.28 s**. Combo /
+  compile-only vs eager **38.10 dB**; graph-only vs eager bit-identical.
+  Quality Comparison table uses a separate single-run A/B vs Diffusers
+  (compile+graph **6.04 s**, eager **7.31 s**).
+
+## Known Limitations
+
+- Cache acceleration backends (`cache_dit`, `tea_cache`) are not supported;
+  `QwenImage21Pipeline` is registered in `_NO_CACHE_ACCELERATION`.
+- Ulysses sequence parallelism is wired; ring attention is not a supported path.
+  A short H200 smoke (1024×1024, 8 steps, seed 42, true CFG 1.0, eager) finished:
+  Ulysses SP=2 vs SP=1 is **46.5 dB**. That size's target length is divisible by 4,
+  so SP padding was not exercised, and this is not the 50-step parity next to the
+  TP tables. The features matrix therefore stays ❓. Ring SP=2 also ran, at
+  **29.9 dB** vs SP=1, which is why it stays unsupported.
+- Only true CFG is exposed; there is no `guidance_scale` knob.
+- VAE tiling (`--vae-use-tiling`, also implied by `--vae-patch-parallel-size > 1`)
+  decodes in 512px tiles with 384px stride (32 latent pixels per tile at 16x
+  spatial compression). On CUDA OOM the tile size is automatically halved
+  (keeping 25% overlap) and decoding retried, down to 128px tiles. Tile sizes
+  are not yet exposed as engine arguments.

+"""Compile and CUDA-graph smoke tests for the fused AdaLayerNorm fast path.
+
+The serving stack reaches AdaLayerNorm.forward_cuda through CustomOp dispatch
+from compiled diffusion workloads (lazy regional torch.compile on repeated
+blocks) and can capture CUDA graphs around pipeline stages. These smokes
+verify that torch.compile uses the native chain and leaves the eager fused
+path eligible, and that the fused path can be captured/replayed inside a CUDA
+graph with outputs matching native. They are smoke tests, not performance
+measurements.
