 - `benchmarks/build_dataset/` — dataset prep utilities (e.g., SeedTTS top100).
 - `benchmarks/<model>/vllm_omni/` — vLLM-Omni pipeline benchmarks, logs, outputs.
+- `benchmarks/accuracy/` — accuracy benchmark integrations that adapt external
+  benchmark suites to vLLM-Omni serving and evaluation flows.
 - Add new tasks under `benchmarks/<model>/...` with the same pattern: `transformers/`, `vllm_omni/`, task-specific README, and (optionally) dataset prep notes.

+# Accuracy Benchmarks
+
+This directory hosts accuracy benchmark integrations that run entirely through a
+local `vllm-omni serve` deployment.
+
+Current integrations:
+
+- `text_to_image/`: GEBench generation + local judge scoring flow.
+- `image_to_image/`: GEdit-Bench generation + local VIEScore-style scoring flow.
+
+Design notes:
+
+- Generation is executed through the OpenAI-compatible endpoints exposed by
+  `vllm-omni serve`.
+- Evaluation is also executed through a local OpenAI-compatible judge model
+  served by `vllm-omni`.
+- Both generation and judge requests accept either `http://host:port` or
+  `http://host:port/v1`.
+- Output directory layout intentionally stays close to the upstream repos.
+
+Test guidance:
+
+- Local static/self-checks live in `tests/benchmarks/test_accuracy_bench_utils.py`.
+- End-to-end generation/evaluation should be validated in a remote GPU
+  environment. In the current repo marker system there is `L4` but no `L5`
+  marker, so benchmark smoke tests should be wired as `advanced_model +
+  benchmark + L4` when GPU capacity is available.

+# GEdit-Bench on vLLM-Omni
+
+This integration adapts the upstream `stepfun-ai/Step1X-Edit/GEdit-Bench`
+evaluation flow into `vllm-omni/benchmarks/accuracy/image_to_image`.
+
+Upstream mapping:
+
+- `run_gedit_score.py` -> `run_gedit_bench.py evaluate`
+- `calculate_statistics.py` -> `run_gedit_bench.py summarize`
+- upstream output layout under `results/<method>/fullset/...` is preserved
+
+What changed:
+
+- The upstream repo mainly ships evaluation scripts. This integration adds a
+  generation runner that uses the local `vllm-omni` OpenAI-compatible
+  `/v1/images/edits` endpoint to produce benchmark outputs in the expected
+  directory structure.
+- The evaluator keeps the same VIEScore-style decomposition:
+  - `semantics_score`
+  - `quality_score`
+  - `overall_score = sqrt(semantics_score * quality_score)`
+- Judge calls are routed to a local OpenAI-compatible model served by
+  `vllm-omni`, not a remote provider.
+
+Dataset:
+
+- Default `--dataset-ref` is `stepfun-ai/GEdit-Bench`
+- You can also pass a local dataset directory previously saved with
+  Hugging Face `datasets`
+
+Example usage:
+
+```bash
+python benchmarks/accuracy/image_to_image/run_gedit_bench.py generate \
+  --output-root benchmarks/accuracy/image_to_image/results \
+  --base-url http://127.0.0.1:8000 \
+  --model Qwen/Qwen-Image-Edit \
+  --model-name qwen_image_edit \
+  --dataset-ref stepfun-ai/GEdit-Bench \
+  --task-type all \
+  --instruction-language en
+```
+
+```bash
+python benchmarks/accuracy/image_to_image/run_gedit_bench.py evaluate \
+  --output-root benchmarks/accuracy/image_to_image/results \
+  --model-name qwen_image_edit \
+  --save-dir benchmarks/accuracy/image_to_image/scores \
+  --dataset-ref stepfun-ai/GEdit-Bench \
+  --judge-base-url http://127.0.0.1:8000 \
+  --judge-model Qwen/Qwen2.5-VL-7B-Instruct \
+  --judge-api-key EMPTY
+```
+
+```bash
+python benchmarks/accuracy/image_to_image/run_gedit_bench.py summarize \
+  --csv-path benchmarks/accuracy/image_to_image/scores/qwen_image_edit_all_all_vie_score.csv \
+  --language en
+```
+
+Example summary output:
+
+```json
+{
+  "language": "all",
+  "languages": {
+    "en": {
+      "overall": {"count": 110, "Q_SC": 6.58, "Q_PQ": 5.89, "Q_O": 5.86},
+      "intersection": {"count": 78, "Q_SC": 6.50, "Q_PQ": 5.66, "Q_O": 5.65}
+    },
+    "cn": {
+      "overall": {"count": 110, "Q_SC": 6.90, "Q_PQ": 5.78, "Q_O": 6.11},
+      "intersection": {"count": 63, "Q_SC": 7.22, "Q_PQ": 5.59, "Q_O": 6.28}
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+Example generated images to inspect:
+
+- `benchmarks/accuracy/image_to_image/results/qwen_image_edit/fullset/background_change/en/<sample>.png`
+- `benchmarks/accuracy/image_to_image/results/qwen_image_edit/fullset/text_change/en/<sample>.png`
+- `benchmarks/accuracy/image_to_image/results/qwen_image_edit/fullset/subject-replace/cn/<sample>.png`
+
+Example score artifacts to inspect together with the images:
+
+- `benchmarks/accuracy/image_to_image/scores/qwen_image_edit_all_all_vie_score.csv`
+- `benchmarks/accuracy/image_to_image/scores/qwen_image_edit_all_all_summary.json`
+
+What to expect:
+
+- `Q_SC` measures instruction following and content preservation.
+- `Q_PQ` measures image naturalness and artifact quality.
+- `Q_O` is the combined overall score; higher is better.
+- `overall.count` is the number of evaluated samples for that language, while `intersection.count` is the subset with `intersection_exist == True`.
+
+Notes:
+
+- This flow requires the optional Hugging Face `datasets` package.
+- `generate` writes `generation_manifest.json` with local output coverage.
+- The current repo marker set exposes `L4` but not `L5`, so if you promote an
+  end-to-end smoke test into CI, use the existing `advanced_model`, `benchmark`,
+  and `L4` markers or introduce a new repo-wide marker explicitly first.

+- `scripts/evaluate.py` -> `run_gebench.py evaluate`
+- upstream prompt / judge logic -> `gbench.py`
+
+What changed:
+
+- Generation calls the local OpenAI-compatible `vllm-omni` endpoints:
+  - `/v1/images/generations` for text-only frame generation
+  - `/v1/images/edits` for image-conditioned GUI transition generation
+- Evaluation still keeps the GEBench scoring dimensions:
+  - `goal`
+  - `logic`
+  - `cons`
+  - `ui`
+  - `qual`
+- Judge calls are also routed to a local OpenAI-compatible model served by
+  `vllm-omni` instead of a remote service.
+
+Expected dataset layout:
+
+- Clone the benchmark dataset from Hugging Face into a local directory:
+
+```bash
+git clone https://huggingface.co/datasets/stepfun-ai/GEBench /path/to/GEBench
+```
+
+Example usage:
+
+```bash
+python benchmarks/accuracy/text_to_image/run_gebench.py generate \
+  --dataset-root /path/to/GEBench \
+  --output-root benchmarks/accuracy/text_to_image/outputs \
+  --base-url http://127.0.0.1:8000 \
+  --model Tongyi-MAI/Z-Image-Turbo \
+  --data-type type3
+```
+
+```bash
+python benchmarks/accuracy/text_to_image/run_gebench.py evaluate \
+  --dataset-root /path/to/GEBench \
+  --output-root benchmarks/accuracy/text_to_image/outputs \
+  --data-type type3 \
+  --judge-base-url http://127.0.0.1:8000 \
+  --judge-model Qwen/Qwen2.5-VL-7B-Instruct \
+  --judge-api-key EMPTY
+```
+
+```bash
+python benchmarks/accuracy/text_to_image/run_gebench.py summarize \
+  --output-root benchmarks/accuracy/text_to_image/outputs
+```
+
+Example summary output:
+
+```json
+{
+  "generation": {
+    "count": 20,
+    "by_type": {
+      "type3": {"count": 10},
+      "type4": {"count": 10}
+    }
+  },
+  "evaluation": {
+    "count": 20,
+    "overall_mean": 0.52,
+    "by_type": {
+      "type3": {"count": 10, "overall_mean": 0.50, "overall_mean_100": 50.0},
+      "type4": {"count": 10, "overall_mean": 0.54, "overall_mean_100": 54.0}
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+Example generated images to inspect:
+
+- `benchmarks/accuracy/text_to_image/outputs/03_trajectory_text_fictionalapp/<lang_device>/<sample>/frame0.png`
+- `benchmarks/accuracy/text_to_image/outputs/03_trajectory_text_fictionalapp/<lang_device>/<sample>/frame5.png`
+- `benchmarks/accuracy/text_to_image/outputs/04_trajectory_text_realapp/<lang_device>/<sample>/frame0.png`
+- `benchmarks/accuracy/text_to_image/outputs/04_trajectory_text_realapp/<lang_device>/<sample>/frame5.png`
+
+What to expect:
+
+- `overall_mean` is normalized to `0.0 ~ 1.0`; higher is better.
+- `frame0.png` is the initial GUI frame; `frame5.png` is the final trajectory frame most often used for quick inspection.
+- For full debugging, inspect the whole `frame0.png` ... `frame5.png` sequence for one sample directory.
+
+Notes:
+
+- GEBench upstream leaves type3/type4 generation unfinished. This integration
+  fills that gap with a trajectory runner that generates `frame0.png` followed
+  by `frame1.png` ... `frame5.png`.
+- Type1/2/5 require an image-edit capable model exposed through
+  `vllm-omni serve`.
+- `summarize` will report both generated coverage and any existing evaluation
+  summary files.

 ### VBench dataset

+`--width --height --num-frames --fps --num-inference-steps`
+(pass `--width` and `--height` together).

+Example (`t2v`):

+	--model Wan-AI/Wan2.2-T2V-A14B-Diffusers \

+	--width 640 --height 480 \
+	--num-frames 81 --fps 16 \
+	--num-inference-steps 40
+```
+
+Note: `vbench` can also be used for other tasks such as `t2i` / `i2v` (and `i2i`). For `t2i`, the loader reuses VBench t2v text prompts; for `i2v` / `i2i`, it loads the VBench i2v dataset (with image paths).

+# Qwen3-TTS Benchmark
+
+Benchmarks for Qwen3-TTS text-to-speech models, comparing vLLM-Omni streaming serving against HuggingFace Transformers offline inference.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+```bash
+pip install matplotlib aiohttp soundfile numpy tqdm
+pip install qwen_tts  # for HF baseline
+```
+
+## Quick Start
+
+Run the full benchmark (vllm-omni + HF baseline) with a single command:
+
+```bash
+cd benchmarks/qwen3-tts
+bash run_benchmark.sh
+```
+
+Results (JSON + PNG plots) are saved to `results/`.
+
+### Common options
+
+```bash
+# Only vllm-omni (skip HF baseline)
+bash run_benchmark.sh --async-only
+
+# Only HF baseline
+bash run_benchmark.sh --hf-only
+
+# Use a different model (e.g. 1.7B)
+MODEL=Qwen/Qwen3-TTS-12Hz-1.7B-CustomVoice bash run_benchmark.sh --async-only
+
+# Use bs16 config for higher throughput
+STAGE_CONFIG=vllm_omni/configs/qwen3_tts_bs16.yaml bash run_benchmark.sh --async-only
+
+# Custom GPU, prompt count, concurrency levels
+GPU_DEVICE=1 NUM_PROMPTS=20 CONCURRENCY="1 4" bash run_benchmark.sh
+```
+
+## Manual Steps
+
+### 1) Start the vLLM-Omni server
+
+```bash
+CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0 python -m vllm_omni.entrypoints.cli.main serve \
+    "Qwen/Qwen3-TTS-12Hz-0.6B-CustomVoice" \
+    --omni --host 127.0.0.1 --port 8000 \
+    --stage-configs-path benchmarks/qwen3-tts/vllm_omni/configs/qwen3_tts_bs1.yaml \
+    --trust-remote-code
+```
+
+### 2) Run online serving benchmark
+
+```bash
+python benchmarks/qwen3-tts/vllm_omni/bench_tts_serve.py \
+    --port 8000 \
+    --num-prompts 50 \
+    --max-concurrency 1 4 10 \
+    --config-name "async_chunk" \
+    --result-dir results/
+```
+
+### 3) Run HuggingFace baseline
+
+```bash
+python benchmarks/qwen3-tts/transformers/bench_tts_hf.py \
+    --model "Qwen/Qwen3-TTS-12Hz-0.6B-CustomVoice" \
+    --num-prompts 50 \
+    --gpu-device 0 \
+    --result-dir results/
+```
+
+### 4) Generate comparison plots
+
+```bash
+python benchmarks/qwen3-tts/plot_results.py \
+    --results results/bench_async_chunk_*.json results/bench_hf_transformers_*.json \
+    --labels "vllm-omni" "hf_transformers" \
+    --output results/comparison.png
+```
+
+## Stage Configs
+
+| Config | max_num_seqs | Description |
+|--------|:------------:|-------------|
+| `vllm_omni/configs/qwen3_tts_bs1.yaml` | 1 | Single-request processing (lowest latency) |
+| `vllm_omni/configs/qwen3_tts_bs16.yaml` | 16 | High-throughput concurrent processing |
+
+All configs use a 2-stage pipeline (Talker -> Code2Wav) with `async_chunk` streaming enabled. The `SharedMemoryConnector` streams codec frames (25-frame chunks with 25-frame context overlap) between stages.
+
+The model is specified via the CLI `--model` flag (or `MODEL` env var), so the same configs work for both the 0.6B and 1.7B model variants.
+
+## Metrics
+
+- **TTFP (Time to First Audio Packet)**: Time from request to first audio chunk (streaming latency)
+- **E2E (End-to-End Latency)**: Total time from request to complete audio response
+- **RTF (Real-Time Factor)**: E2E latency / audio duration. RTF < 1.0 means faster-than-real-time synthesis
+- **Throughput**: Total audio seconds generated per wall-clock second

+# Governance
+
+vLLM-Omni's governance is inspired by the [vLLM governance process](https://docs.vllm.ai/en/latest/governance/process/). We share the same commitment to open source community and meritocratic norms.
+
+## Values
+
+vLLM-Omni aims to be the fastest and easiest-to-use omni-modality inference and serving engine. Our values are aligned with [vLLM's values](https://docs.vllm.ai/en/latest/governance/process/#values):
+
+### Design Values
+
+1. **Top performance**: System performance is our top priority. We monitor overheads, optimize kernels, and publish benchmarks. We never leave performance on the table.
+2. **Ease of use**: vLLM-Omni must be simple to install, configure, and operate. We provide clear documentation, fast startup, clean logs, helpful error messages, and monitoring guides. Many users fork our code or study it deeply, so we keep it readable and modular.
+3. **Wide coverage**: vLLM-Omni supports frontier models and high-performance accelerators. We make it easy to add new models and hardware. vLLM-Omni + PyTorch form a simple interface that avoids complexity.
+4. **Production ready**: vLLM-Omni runs 24/7 in production. It must be easy to operate and monitor for health issues.
+5. **Extensibility**: vLLM-Omni serves as fundamental omni-modality infrastructure. Our codebase cannot cover every use case, so we design for easy forking and customization.
+
+### Collaboration Values
+
+1. **Tightly Knit and Fast-Moving**: Our maintainer team is aligned on vision, philosophy, and roadmap. We work closely to unblock each other and move quickly.
+2. **Individual Merit**: No one buys their way into governance. Committer status belongs to individuals, not companies. We reward contribution, maintenance, and project stewardship.

+# Prefill-Decode (PD) Disaggregation
+
+PD disaggregation splits the Qwen3-Omni thinker into separate prefill and decode
+stages so prompt processing and token generation can run on different workers.
+
+This is documented as a stage-config recipe instead of a bundled YAML because the
+deployment-specific values usually change per environment:
+
+- GPU placement
+- `tensor_parallel_size`
+- connector backend and connector ports
+- connector IPs or bootstrap addresses
+
+Start from the [default Qwen3-Omni stage config](gh-file:vllm_omni/model_executor/stage_configs/qwen3_omni_moe.yaml)
+and copy it to your own file, for example `qwen3_omni_pd.yaml`. Then apply the
+changes below.
+
+## Requirements
+
+- 3+ GPUs for a basic layout: prefill, decode, and talker+code2wav
+- A KV connector supported by vLLM, such as `MooncakeConnector`
+- Matching `tensor_parallel_size` on the prefill and decode thinker stages
+
+## 1. Split the thinker into prefill and decode stages
+
+Replace the original thinker stage with two stages:
+

+      detokenize: True
+      repetition_penalty: 1.05
+```
+
+Notes:
+
+- `is_prefill_only: true` marks the thinker stage that only saves KV.
+- `is_decode_only: true` marks the thinker stage that resumes from remote KV.
+- `kv_transfer_config` is required on both stages.
+- The orchestrator forces the prefill stage to run with `max_tokens=1`, so the
+  prefill side only processes the prompt and exports KV.
+
+## 2. Shift the downstream stages by one index
+
+After inserting the extra thinker stage, renumber the remaining stages:
+
+```yaml
+  - stage_id: 2
+    runtime:
+      devices: "2"
+    engine_input_source: [1]
+    custom_process_input_func: vllm_omni.model_executor.stage_input_processors.qwen3_omni.thinker2talker
+
+  - stage_id: 3
+    runtime:
+      devices: "2"
+    engine_args:
+      max_num_seqs: 1
+    engine_input_source: [2]
+    custom_process_input_func: vllm_omni.model_executor.stage_input_processors.qwen3_omni.talker2code2wav
+```
+
+Compared with the default Qwen3-Omni config:
+
+- the talker becomes stage `2` instead of stage `1`
+- the code2wav stage becomes stage `3` instead of stage `2`
+- the talker now reads from decode stage `1`
+
+## 3. Add runtime edges for the four-stage pipeline
+
+```yaml
+runtime:
+  enabled: true
+  defaults:
+    window_size: -1
+    max_inflight: 1
+  edges:
+    - from: 0
+      to: 1
+      window_size: -1
+    - from: 1
+      to: 2
+      window_size: -1
+    - from: 2
+      to: 3
+      window_size: -1
+```
+
+## 4. Launch with your custom config
+
+```bash
+vllm serve Qwen/Qwen3-Omni-30B-A3B-Instruct --omni --port 8091 \
+    --stage-configs-path /path/to/qwen3_omni_pd.yaml
+```
+
+## Operational Notes
+
+- `MooncakeConnector` does not support heterogeneous TP sizes across the PD
+  pair. Keep prefill and decode at the same `tensor_parallel_size`.
+- If the thinker requires TP=2, both thinker stages must use TP=2 and be given
+  separate GPU sets, for example `"0,1"` for prefill and `"2,3"` for decode.
+- Choose connector ports and addresses that match your deployment. The values
+  shown above are examples only.

 # CI Failures
 
-What should I do when a CI job fails on my PR, but I don't think my PR caused the failure?
+## Overview of CI Checks
 
+When you open a PR against vLLM-Omni, several CI checks run automatically:
 
-## Common Case 1:
+| Check | Platform | What it does |
+| ----- | -------- | ------------ |
+| **pre-commit** | GitHub Actions | Runs linting (Ruff), formatting, spell-checking (typos), and YAML validation. |
+| **Build Wheel** | GitHub Actions | Builds Python wheels for Python 3.11 and 3.12 on Ubuntu. Skipped for docs-only or Markdown-only changes (controlled by `paths-ignore` in the workflow). |
+| **DCO** | GitHub | Verifies every commit has a `Signed-off-by` line. |
+| **docs/readthedocs.org:vllm-omni** | Read the Docs | Builds the MkDocs documentation site. |
+| **buildkite/vllm-omni** | Buildkite | Runs GPU-based tests on NVIDIA CUDA hardware (L4, H100). |
+| **buildkite/vllm-omni-amd** | Buildkite | Runs GPU-based tests on AMD ROCm hardware (MI325). |
+| **buildkite/vllm-omni-intel** | Buildkite | Runs GPU-based tests on Intel XPU hardware (Intel Arc BMG). |
 
-🚨 Error: The command was interrupted by a signal: signal: terminated
+## Step 1: Identify the Failing Check
 
-Reason: The test is terminated due to exceed the time limits. Sometimes rebuild the test will pass.
+Click the **Details** link next to the failing check on your PR to open the build log. The most common failures fall into these categories:
+
+### pre-commit failures
+
+These are typically formatting or linting issues introduced by your PR. Fix them locally:
+
+```bash
+uv pip install pre-commit
+pre-commit run --all-files
+```
+
+Then commit the fixes and push.
+
+### DCO failures
+
+Every commit must include a `Signed-off-by` line. If you forgot, amend your commits:
+
+```bash
+git commit --amend -s
+git push --force-with-lease
+```
+
+For multiple commits, use an interactive rebase to add the sign-off to each one.
+
+### Read the Docs failures
+
+The documentation build uses MkDocs with `fail_on_warning: true`, so even a minor warning (not just errors) will cause the build to fail. To reproduce locally:
+
+```bash

+
+Common causes include broken cross-references, invalid admonition syntax, or missing files referenced by `--8<--` includes.
+
+### Buildkite failures
+
+Buildkite runs GPU tests in Docker containers. These are the most complex checks and can fail for reasons unrelated to your PR (infrastructure issues, flaky tests, etc.). See the sections below for how to investigate.
+
+## Step 2: Check if the Failure Is a Known Issue
+
+Before spending time debugging, check whether the failure already exists on the `main` branch:
+
+1. **Look at the Buildkite build log** — the test name and error message are usually enough to identify the issue.
+2. **Check recent CI runs on `main`** — if the same test is failing there, the failure is not caused by your PR.
+3. **Search existing issues** — look for open issues in the [vllm-omni issue tracker](https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm-omni/issues) with the test name or error message.
+
+If the failure is already tracked, leave a comment on your PR noting that the failure is pre-existing and link the issue.
+
+## Step 3: Investigate the Failure
+
+If the failure appears to be new, investigate whether your changes caused it.
+
+### Reading Buildkite Logs
+
+1. Click **Details** next to the Buildkite check on your PR.
+2. Find the failing step in the pipeline (e.g., "Diffusion Model Test", "Simple Unit Test").
+3. Expand the step to see the full test output with the traceback.
+
+### Running Tests Locally
+
+For instructions on running tests locally (including specific test files, functions, and markers), see the [Running Tests](https://docs.vllm.ai/projects/vllm-omni/en/latest/contributing/ci/test_guide/#running-tests) section in the Test Guide.
+
+## Step 4: Raise an Issue or Fix It
+
+### If the failure is pre-existing (not caused by your PR)
+
+1. **Raise a new issue** if one doesn't already exist, using the title format:
+   `[CI Failure]: [job-name] - [test-path]`
+2. Include the error message, relevant log excerpts, and the commit hash where the failure occurs (e.g., "Still failing on main as of commit `abc1234`").
+3. Leave a comment on your PR linking to the issue and noting that the failure is unrelated to your changes.
+
+### If the failure is caused by your PR
+
+1. Fix the issue in your branch and push the update.
+2. If the fix is non-trivial, consider adding a test to prevent regression.
+
+## Common Failure Patterns
+
+| Symptom | Likely Cause | Fix |
+| ------- | ------------ | --- |
+| `ruff` or formatting errors | Code style violation | Run `pre-commit run --all-files` |
+| `Signed-off-by` missing | DCO check | Amend commits with `git commit --amend -s` |
+| MkDocs build warning | Broken docs reference | Run `mkdocs build --strict` locally |
+| `OOM` or `CUDA out of memory` | Test exceeds GPU memory | Check if your changes increased memory usage; use `--vae_use_slicing` / `--vae_use_tiling` for diffusion tests |
+| Import errors | Missing or changed dependency | Check `pyproject.toml` and make sure dependencies are correct |
+| Timeout (step exceeded N minutes) | Test is too slow or hangs | Profile the test; check for infinite loops or deadlocks |
+| `Agent lost` in Buildkite | Infrastructure issue (not your fault) | Re-trigger the build; comment on your PR |

+**Preferred Test Strategy**
+
+Use one of the following patterns depending on page type:
+
+- **Dynamic code-block extraction (preferred for offline docs)**
+    - Extract Python/Bash code blocks from markdown AST analyzer, then execute them directly in tests.
+    - Benefit: test logic stays automatically aligned with docs.
+    - Basic idea: Use `ReadmeSnippet.extract_readme_snippets` to extract a list of code blocks as a global variable in file,
+    use this list as `pytest.mark.parametrize` parameters, and pass each snippet item to `example_runner.run` inside the parametrized test.
+    Additionally pass an `output_subfolder` argument for the 2nd-level output folder explained in **Output Directory Structure** below.
+    If any extra environment variable is need for a test (e.g., the example script reads it), `example_runner.run` also accepts a 3rd `env` parameter.
+    - See [tests/examples/offline_inference/test_text_to_image.py](https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm-omni/blob/main/tests/examples/offline_inference/test_text_to_image.py) for reference implementation.
+
+- **Explicit copied scripts (used by online docs for now until further update)**
+    - For online serving pages, it is acceptable to copy code from docs into dedicated test functions, because only client-side, request-sending scripts are tested.
+    - Benefit: dynamic extraction is overly complex: need to tell server-launch and client-request scripts.
+    - Requirement: copied test code must be kept in sync with doc updates.
+
+**Test Case Naming Convention**
+
+- Dynamic code extraction (auto-generated internally):
+    - `test_{single_function_name_matching_file_name}[h2_heading_00X]`
+    - Example: `test_text_to_image[basic_usage_001]`
+- Explicit copied scripts:
+    - `test_{h2_heading_00X}[{dummy_param_id_for_omni_server}]`
+    - Example: `test_api_calls_001[omni_server0]`
+
+**Runtime Configuration**
+
+In the example code tests, do **not** reduce `num_inference_steps` just to speed up the tests  unless there is a strong CI reliability reason to do otherwise.
+
+**Skipping Rules**
+
+You may skip examples falling in the following categories using `pytest.mark.skip` or `pytest.skip`:
+
+- Gradio UI scripts
+- Scenarios that significantly overlap with existing tests and add little new coverage.
+
+**Output Directory Structure**
+
+Use a three-layer output structure to store output artifacts:
+
+1. Root output directory
+    - Auto-detected from `OUTPUT_DIR` env var or auto-generated under `/tmp`.
+2. Doc-page directory
+    - Define and use a clear page-level folder name in each `test_*.py` yourself (abbreviations are acceptable, e.g., `example_offline_t2i`).
+3. Test-case directory
+    - Must match the case identifier (e.g., `basic_usage_001`).
+    - Auto-generated for dynamic extracted tests.

+**Scope**
+
+For diffusion models, the L4 functionality test covers all or common *diffusion features* that are supported by this model, including several [parallelism acceleration methods](https://docs.vllm.ai/projects/vllm-omni/en/latest/user_guide/diffusion/parallelism_acceleration/), [CPU offloading](https://docs.vllm.ai/projects/vllm-omni/en/latest/user_guide/diffusion/cpu_offload_diffusion/), [TeaCache](https://docs.vllm.ai/projects/vllm-omni/en/latest/user_guide/diffusion/teacache/) and [Cache-DiT](https://docs.vllm.ai/projects/vllm-omni/en/latest/user_guide/diffusion/cache_dit_acceleration/) cache backends, [quantization methods](https://docs.vllm.ai/projects/vllm-omni/en/latest/user_guide/diffusion/quantization/overview/).
+
+**Test Case Design**
+
+For a *high priority* model (currently listed in [issue #1832](https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm-omni/issues/1832)), we use several test cases, each with multiple features turned on, so that each supported feature is tested in at least one test case. This is to relieve the GPU workload on the CI machine. The suggested test case combination is as follows:
+
+- If the model can fit into 4 L4 GPU (with quantization and tensor parallel always on) (20GB RAM each)
+    - (1 GPU) TeaCache + Layerwise CPU offloading + GGUF
+    - (4 GPUs) CacheDiT + Ulysses=2 + TP=2 + VAE=2 + FP8
+    - (4 GPUs) CacheDiT + Ring=2 + HSDP=2 + VAE=2 + GGUF
+    - (4 GPUs) TeaCache + CFG=2 + TP=2 + VAE=2 + FP8
+- Otherwise, consider 2 H100 GPU environment (80GB RAM each) with the following tests
+    - (1 GPU) TeaCache + Layerwise CPU offloading + GGUF
+    - (2 GPUs) CacheDiT + Ulysses=2 + FP8
+    - (2 GPUs) CacheDiT + Ring=2 + GGUF
+    - (2 GPUs) TeaCache + CFG=2 + FP8
+    - (2 GPUs) CacheDiT + TP=2 + VAE=2 + FP8
+    - (2 GPUs) CacheDiT + HSDP=2 + VAE=2 + GGUF
+- If 2 H100 GPU cannot handle the model either (e.g., HunyuanImage 3.0)
+    - Still design tests and feature combinations that can best fit real-world scenario.
+    - Do not include it in CI (or exclude it from the CI's filtering criteria). Instead, relevant PR authors are suggested to run these tests locally.
+- Fallback plan
+    - If the model does not support layerwise CPU offloading, replace the corresponding test case with module-wise offloading
+    - If the model only supports specific or no caching feature, use this option or remove this option in all test cases.
+    - If the model only supports specific or no quantization feature, use this option or remove this option in all test cases.
+    - If the model does not support certain other features, remove this option from that test case. If, consequently, the coverage of this modified test case completely overlaps with others, remove this test case.
+
+For a *normal priority* model, further reduce the number of test cases.
+
+- Only write one or two test cases for the most common feature combinations.
+- The author can explore themselves to see which feature combination balances output quality and performance. Alternatively, the author can refer to any example code in the PR that adds the model, or the example code in the PR that adds a feature (if the code involves this model of interest).
+
+Currently all the features are available in online serving mode. Hence, only need to add `tests/e2e/online_serving/test_{model}_expansion.py`.
+
+**Code Style**
+
+- Validation: test that the multimodal output files of your model have the correct shapes. `OpenAIClientHandler.send_diffusion_request` should have taken care of this.
+- Test marks: always add `advanced_model` and `diffusion`. Add GPU-related marks if needed. Ref: [Markers for Tests](https://docs.vllm.ai/projects/vllm-omni/en/latest/contributing/ci/tests_markers/).
+- To maximize code reuse, you may refer to
+    - `tests/conftest.py` for `omni_server` (running server in subprocess) and `openai_client` fixtures (sending requests and validating output), `generate_synthetic_image` and `assert_XXX_valid` helper.
+    - `tests/utils.py` for `@hardware_test(...)` and `hardware_marks`.
+    - [Parametrizing tests (pytest doc)](https://docs.pytest.org/en/stable/example/parametrize.html) to reuse test function implementation for different cases.
+- Doc: add a concise docstring for each test function.

+### Diffusion Timing (Performance Profiling)
+When adapting a new diffusion model, it is often useful to analyze the latency of key components such as text encoding, diffusion denoising, and VAE decoding.
+vLLM-Omni provides a timing utility via `DiffusionPipelineProfilerMixin` to help developers quickly identify performance bottlenecks.
+
+!!! info
+      `DiffusionPipelineProfilerMixin` is different from using `torch.profiler` for diffusion models, as introduced in this [tutorial](https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm-omni/blob/main/docs/contributing/profiling.md#3-profiling-diffusion-models). `DiffusionPipelineProfilerMixin` only prints the timing information of multiple functions (such as `vae.decode`), while `torch.profiler` saves detailed GPU/CPU computation time, call/execution steps.
+
+This tool automatically measures the execution time of selected pipeline modules and prints the results in the logs.
+
+**Enabling Diffusion Timing**
+
+
+Enable timing by setting:
+```
+vllm serve Qwen/Qwen-Image --omni --port 8091 --enable-diffusion-pipeline-profiler
+```
+You can optionally specify which modules to profile:
+```
+class YourPipeline(xxx, DiffusionPipelineProfilerMixin):
+    def __init__(self, xxx):
+        ...
+        self.setup_diffusion_pipeline_profiler(profiler_targets=["diffuse"], enable_diffusion_pipeline_profiler)
+```
+If not specified, the default targets are used:
+```
+["vae.encode", "vae.decode", "diffuse", "text_encoder.forward", "tokenizer.forward"]
+```
+**Adding DiffusionPipelineProfilerMixin to a Pipeline**
+To enable timing support in your pipeline, inherit from DiffusionPipelineProfilerMixin.
+```python
+from vllm_omni.diffusion.utils.diffusion_pipeline_profiler import DiffusionPipelineProfilerMixin
+
+class YourModelPipeline(nn.Module, DiffusionPipelineProfilerMixin):
+    # Optional: Specify custom timing targets
+    _PROFILER_TARGETS = ["vae.encode", "vae.decode", "diffuse", "text_encoder.forward", "tokenizer.forward"]
+
+    def __init__(
+        self,
+        *,
+        od_config: OmniDiffusionConfig,
+        prefix: str = "",
+    ):
+        super().__init__()
+        self.od_config = od_config
+        self.parallel_config = od_config.parallel_config
+        # initialize pipeline components
+        ...
+
+        # initialize timing profiler
+        self.setup_diffusion_pipeline_profiler(enable_diffusion_pipeline_profiler)
+```
+The mixin dynamically wraps selected methods and records their execution time during inference.
+
+If you need to fetch the execution time of different modules, you will need to pass `self.stage_durations` to `DiffusionOutput`, as shown below:
+
+```diff
+-   return DiffusionOutput(output=img)
++   return DiffusionOutput(
+            output=image, stage_durations=self.stage_durations if hasattr(self, "stage_durations") else None
+        )
+```
+
+**Pipeline Design for Timing**
+The current diffusion timing utility is function-based, meaning it measures the execution time of individual methods.
+
+When implementing a new pipeline, avoid putting all logic inside a single function (e.g., forward). Instead, structure the pipeline in a modular way by separating key stages into independent methods, such as the diffusion loop.
+
+For example:
+```
+def forward(self, req: OmniDiffusionRequest):
+    prompt_embeds = self.encode_prompt(req)
+    latents = self.diffuse(prompt_embeds, req)
+    images = self.vae.decode(latents)
+    return DiffusionOutput(output=images)
+```
+This allows the timing utility to measure each stage (e.g., encode_prompt, diffuse, vae.decode) separately and helps identify performance bottlenecks more easily.
+
+
+**Default Profiled Modules**
+
+By default, the following pipeline modules are timed:
+```
+vae.encode
+vae.decode
+diffuse
+text_encoder.forward
+tokenizer.forward
+```
+
+**Example Output**
+
+When enabled, timing logs appear like this:
+```
+[DiffusionTiming] text_encoder.forward took 0.018s
+[DiffusionTiming] diffuse took 2.412s
+[DiffusionTiming] vae.decode took 0.063s
+```
+These measurements help identify bottlenecks during model adaptation and optimization
+
+

+## Overview
+
+### What is FP8 Quantization?
+
+FP8 quantization reduces model memory footprint by storing weights in 8-bit floating point (`float8_e4m3fn`) instead of 16-bit (`bfloat16`/`float16`). This saves ~50% of weight memory.
+
+A diffusion pipeline typically has three quantizable components:
+
+| Component | Layer Types | Quantization Approach |
+|-----------|-----------|----------------------|
+| **DiT (transformer)** | `nn.Linear` | Replace with vLLM quantized linear layers |
+| **Text encoder** | `nn.Linear` | FP8 weight storage via hooks |
+| **VAE** | `nn.Conv2d`, `nn.Conv3d` | FP8 weight storage via hooks |
+
+### Architecture
+
+The quantization system has two mechanisms:
+
+**1. vLLM Quantized Linear Layers (for DiT)**
+
+vLLM provides drop-in replacements for `nn.Linear` that perform FP8 W8A8 computation on supported hardware. These are configured via `quant_config` passed to layer constructors.
+
+Key classes:
+
+| Class | Location | Purpose |
+|-------|----------|---------|
+| `build_quant_config` | `vllm_omni/quantization/__init__.py` | Build quantization config from string/dict/per-component spec |

+
+**2. FP8 Weight Storage via Hooks (for text encoder and VAE)**
+
+For models loaded via `from_pretrained()` (outside vLLM's weight pipeline), we use forward hooks to store weights in FP8 and dequantize on-the-fly:
+
+```
+At rest:     weight.data = fp8_tensor (half memory)
+Pre-hook:    weight.data = fp8_weight.to(bf16) * scale
+Forward:     Normal computation in BF16
+Post-hook:   weight.data = fp8_weight (back to FP8)
+```
+

+
+## Step-by-Step Implementation
+
+### Step 1: Add `quant_config` to the Transformer
+
+Pass `quant_config` to vLLM parallel linear layers in the transformer. This enables FP8 W8A8 for DiT linear layers.
+
+#### 1.1: Accept `quant_config` in Constructor
+
+```python
+from vllm.model_executor.layers.quantization.base_config import QuantizationConfig
+
+class YourTransformer2DModel(nn.Module):
+    def __init__(
+        self,
+        *,
+        od_config: OmniDiffusionConfig,
+        quant_config: QuantizationConfig | None = None,
+        # ... other params
+    ):
+        self.quant_config = quant_config
+        # Pass to sub-modules
+        self.blocks = nn.ModuleList([
+            YourTransformerBlock(quant_config=quant_config, ...)
+            for _ in range(num_layers)
+        ])
+```
+
+#### 1.2: Pass `quant_config` to vLLM Linear Layers
+
+Replace `nn.Linear` with vLLM parallel linear layers that accept `quant_config`:
+
+```python
+from vllm.model_executor.layers.linear import (
+    ColumnParallelLinear,
+    QKVParallelLinear,
+    RowParallelLinear,
+)
+
+class YourAttentionBlock(nn.Module):
+    def __init__(self, hidden_size, num_heads, quant_config=None, prefix=""):
+        # QKV projection
+        self.to_qkv = QKVParallelLinear(
+            hidden_size=hidden_size,
+            head_size=hidden_size // num_heads,
+            total_num_heads=num_heads,
+            quant_config=quant_config,
+            prefix=f"{prefix}.to_qkv",
+        )
+        # Output projection
+        self.to_out = RowParallelLinear(
+            input_size=hidden_size,
+            output_size=hidden_size,
+            quant_config=quant_config,
+            prefix=f"{prefix}.to_out",
+        )
+
+class YourFeedForward(nn.Module):
+    def __init__(self, hidden_size, intermediate_size, quant_config=None, prefix=""):
+        self.gate_up_proj = ColumnParallelLinear(
+            input_size=hidden_size,
+            output_size=intermediate_size * 2,
+            quant_config=quant_config,
+            prefix=f"{prefix}.gate_up_proj",
+        )
+        self.down_proj = RowParallelLinear(
+            input_size=intermediate_size,
+            output_size=hidden_size,
+            quant_config=quant_config,
+            prefix=f"{prefix}.down_proj",
+        )
+```
+
+!!! important
+    Always pass the `prefix` parameter. It is used by `ignored_layers` matching to skip sensitive layers.
+
+#### 1.3: Identify Sensitive Layers
+
+Some layers degrade output quality when quantized. Common sensitive layers:
+
+| Layer | Why Sensitive | Typical Models | Quant Methods Affected |
+|-------|-------------|---------------|----------------------|
+| `img_mlp` | Processes denoising latents with shifting dynamic range | Qwen-Image | FP8, Int8 |
+| `feed_forward` | FFN layers in DiT blocks, large dynamic range | Z-Image | Int8 |
+| `proj_out` | Final output projection, small quantization errors amplified | Various | FP8, Int8 |
+| `lm_head` | Output vocabulary projection, precision-critical | Omni (thinker) | NVFP4 |
+| `mlp.gate` | MoE router gates, routing decisions are precision-critical | MoE models | NVFP4 |
+
+**Quantization quality benchmarks** (LPIPS: lower = better, <0.01 imperceptible, >0.1 noticeable):
+
+| Model | Method | All Layers | With `ignored_layers` | Recommendation |
+|-------|--------|-----------|----------------------|----------------|
+| Qwen-Image-2512 | Int8 | LPIPS 0.0197 | 0.0027 (skip `img_mlp`) | Skip `img_mlp` |
+| Z-Image-Turbo | Int8 | LPIPS 0.1597 | 0.0290 (skip `feed_forward`) | Skip `feed_forward` |
+| Z-Image-Turbo | FP8 | LPIPS ~0.005 | — | All layers OK |
+
+To identify sensitive layers for a new model:
+
+1. Run inference with all layers quantized
+2. Compare output quality with BF16 baseline using LPIPS (see `benchmarks/diffusion/quantization_quality.py`)
+3. Selectively disable quantization per layer (via `ignored_layers`) until quality matches
+4. Document the recommended `ignored_layers` in the model's supported models table
+
+### Step 2: Wire Up Quantization in the Pipeline
+
+#### 2.1: Create `quant_config` and Pass to Transformer
+
+In the pipeline's `__init__`, extract the vLLM quant config and pass it to the transformer:
+
+```python
+from vllm_omni.quantization import build_quant_config
+
+class YourPipeline(nn.Module):
+    def __init__(self, *, od_config: OmniDiffusionConfig, prefix: str = ""):
+        super().__init__()
+        # ... load scheduler, text_encoder, vae ...
+
+        # Build quant config from OmniDiffusionConfig
+        quant_config = build_quant_config(od_config.quantization_config)
+
+        # Pass to transformer
+        self.transformer = YourTransformer2DModel(
+            od_config=od_config,
+            quant_config=quant_config,
+            # ... other kwargs
+        )
+```
+
+#### 2.2: Apply FP8 Weight Storage to Text Encoder and VAE
+
+For models loaded via `from_pretrained()`, apply hook-based FP8 weight storage.
+
+!!! note
+    The `apply_fp8_weight_storage` function is provided by `vllm_omni/diffusion/models/utils.py`, introduced in [PR #1412](https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm-omni/pull/1412).
+
+```python
+from vllm_omni.diffusion.models.utils import apply_fp8_weight_storage
+
+class YourPipeline(nn.Module):
+    def __init__(self, *, od_config: OmniDiffusionConfig, prefix: str = ""):
+        super().__init__()
+
+        self.text_encoder = SomeTextEncoder.from_pretrained(...)
+        self.vae = SomeVAE.from_pretrained(...).to(self.device)
+
+        # Apply FP8 weight storage to text encoder and VAE
+        if (
+            od_config.quantization_config is not None
+            and getattr(od_config.quantization_config, "quant_method", None) == "fp8"
+        ):
+            apply_fp8_weight_storage(self.vae)
+            apply_fp8_weight_storage(self.text_encoder)
+
+        # ... rest of init
+```
+
+`apply_fp8_weight_storage` walks all `nn.Linear`, `nn.Conv2d`, and `nn.Conv3d` modules in the model and applies FP8 hooks to each.
+
+#### 2.3: Fix `load_weights` to Include Pre-loaded Components
+
+Since text encoders and VAEs are loaded via `from_pretrained()` (not through vLLM's weight pipeline), their parameters won't appear in the `loaded_weights` set. Mark them explicitly:
+
+```python
+def load_weights(self, weights: Iterable[tuple[str, torch.Tensor]]) -> set[str]:
+    loader = AutoWeightsLoader(self)
+    loaded_weights = loader.load_weights(weights)
+    # Mark pre-loaded component weights as loaded
+    loaded_weights |= {f"vae.{name}" for name, _ in self.vae.named_parameters()}
+    loaded_weights |= {f"text_encoder.{name}" for name, _ in self.text_encoder.named_parameters()}
+    return loaded_weights
+```
+
+### Step 3: Add to Supported Models Documentation
+
+Update the FP8 supported models table in `docs/user_guide/diffusion/quantization/fp8.md`:
+
+```markdown
+| Your-Model | `org/Your-Model` | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | `sensitive_layer` |
+```
+
+---
+
+## Testing
+
+### Quick Verification
+
+```python
+from vllm_omni import Omni
+from vllm_omni.inputs.data import OmniDiffusionSamplingParams
+
+# Test with FP8 enabled
+omni = Omni(model="your-model", quantization="fp8")
+
+outputs = omni.generate(
+    "A cat sitting on a windowsill",
+    OmniDiffusionSamplingParams(num_inference_steps=50),
+)
+```
+
+### Quality Gate Test (LPIPS)
+
+We provide a pytest-based quality gate at `tests/diffusion/quantization/test_quantization_quality.py`.
+It generates outputs with both BF16 and your quantized method using the same seed, computes
+[LPIPS](https://github.com/richzhang/PerceptualSimilarity) perceptual distance, and **fails if it
+exceeds a threshold**. This is the recommended way to validate that a quantization method does not
+unacceptably degrade output quality.
+
+**Step 1: Add your test config** — edit `QUALITY_CONFIGS` in the test file:
+
+```python
+QualityTestConfig(
+    id="int8_z_image",              # pytest ID
+    model="Tongyi-MAI/Z-Image-Turbo",
+    quantization="int8",            # your quantization method
+    task="t2i",                     # "t2i" or "t2v"
+    prompt="a cup of coffee on a wooden table, morning light",
+    max_lpips=0.15,                 # fail threshold (see guide below)
+    num_inference_steps=20,
+),
+```
+
+**Step 2: Run the test:**
+
+```bash
+# Install dependency
+pip install lpips
+
+# Run all quality tests
+pytest tests/diffusion/quantization/test_quantization_quality.py -v -m ""
+
+# Run only your method
+pytest tests/diffusion/quantization/test_quantization_quality.py -v -m "" -k "int8"
+
+# Run a specific model
+pytest tests/diffusion/quantization/test_quantization_quality.py -v -m "" -k "z_image"
+```
+
+**Step 3: Read the output:**
+
+```
+Quantization Quality: int8_z_image
+  Model:         Tongyi-MAI/Z-Image-Turbo
+  Method:        int8
+  LPIPS:         0.0290  (threshold: 0.15)
+  BF16 memory:   19.15 GiB
+  Quant memory:  14.80 GiB  (23% reduction)
+  Result:        PASS
+```
+
+**LPIPS threshold guide:**
+
+| LPIPS Range | Meaning | Recommendation |
+|-------------|---------|----------------|
+| < 0.01 | Imperceptible | Ideal — no visible difference |
+| 0.01 – 0.05 | Minor differences | Good — acceptable for most use cases |
+| 0.05 – 0.15 | Noticeable on close inspection | Acceptable with `ignored_layers` tuning |
+| 0.15 – 0.30 | Clearly visible | Investigate — likely needs `ignored_layers` |
+| > 0.30 | Significant degradation | Quantization method may not suit this model |
+
+!!! tip
+    If your test fails, don't raise the threshold — instead, identify sensitive layers and add
+    them to `ignored_layers` (see next section). Then re-run the test with the lower LPIPS.
+
+### Quality Benchmark (Detailed)
+
+For a full multi-prompt benchmark with Markdown output (suitable for PR descriptions), use the
+standalone benchmark script:
+
+```bash
+python benchmarks/diffusion/quantization_quality.py \
+    --model Tongyi-MAI/Z-Image-Turbo \
+    --quantization fp8 \
+    --prompts \
+        "a cup of coffee on the table" \
+        "an aerial view of a coral reef" \
+    --height 1024 --width 1024 \
+    --num-inference-steps 50 --seed 42
+```
+
+This generates BF16 and quantized outputs, computes per-prompt LPIPS, and prints a Markdown
+summary table ready to paste into your PR.
+
+### Identifying Sensitive Layers with `ignored_layers`
+
+Not all layers tolerate quantization equally. **`ignored_layers`** lets you keep specific layers
+in BF16 while quantizing everything else. This is critical for achieving good quality with
+aggressive quantization methods (Int8, NVFP4).
+
+**Why some layers are sensitive:**
+
+| Layer Type | Why Sensitive | Typical Impact |
+|------------|--------------|----------------|
+| `img_mlp` | Processes denoising latents with shifting dynamic range across timesteps. No built-in normalization to absorb quantization error. | Color shifts, blurriness |
+| `feed_forward` | FFN layers with large dynamic range in DiT blocks. | Artifacts, loss of detail |
+| `proj_out` | Final output projection — small errors get amplified since there are no subsequent layers to correct them. | Overall quality loss |
+| `lm_head` | Vocabulary projection in LLMs — precision-critical for token selection. | Garbage text output |
+| `mlp.gate` | MoE router gates — routing decisions are binary and precision-critical. | Wrong expert selection, quality collapse |
+
+**How to find sensitive layers for your model:**
+
+1. Run the quality gate test with all layers quantized:
+    ```bash
+    pytest tests/diffusion/quantization/test_quantization_quality.py -v -m "" -k "your_model"
+    ```
+
+2. If LPIPS exceeds your threshold, try skipping common sensitive layers one at a time:
+    ```python
+    QualityTestConfig(
+        id="fp8_your_model_skip_mlp",
+        model="your-org/Your-Model",
+        quantization="fp8",
+        task="t2i",
+        prompt="a cup of coffee on a wooden table",
+        max_lpips=0.05,
+    ),
+    ```
+
+    And in the test, modify the Omni call:
+    ```python
+    omni_qt = Omni(
+        model=config.model,
+        quantization_config={
+            "method": config.quantization,
+            "ignored_layers": ["img_mlp"],
+        },
+    )
+    ```
+
+3. Compare LPIPS with and without `ignored_layers` to isolate the problematic layers.
+
+4. Document the recommended `ignored_layers` in the supported models table.
+
+**Real-world examples:**
+
+| Model | Method | All Layers (LPIPS) | With `ignored_layers` | Which Layers to Skip |
+|-------|--------|-------------------|----------------------|---------------------|
+| Qwen-Image-2512 | Int8 | 0.0197 | 0.0027 | `img_mlp` |
+| Z-Image-Turbo | Int8 | 0.1597 | 0.0290 | `feed_forward` |
+| Z-Image-Turbo | FP8 | ~0.005 | — | None needed |
+
+### What to Verify (Checklist)
+
+1. **Model loads without errors** — Check logs for quantization initialization messages
+2. **Quality gate passes** — LPIPS within threshold vs BF16 baseline
+3. **Memory reduction** — Expect ~30-50% savings on quantized components
+4. **Sensitive layers identified** — Document which layers (if any) need `ignored_layers`
+5. **`ignored_layers` pattern works** — Verify that the layer name prefix matches your transformer's module names
+
+---
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Issue: Output Quality Degradation
+
+**Symptoms:** Generated images have visible artifacts, color shifts, or blurriness compared to BF16 baseline.
+
+**Causes & Solutions:**
+
+- **Sensitive layers being quantized:**
+
+    **Solution:** Identify and skip sensitive layers:
+    ```python
+    omni = Omni(
+        model="your-model",
+        quantization_config={
+            "method": "fp8",
+            "ignored_layers": ["img_mlp"],
+        },
+    )
+    ```
+
+- **All layers sensitive (rare):**
+
+    **Solution:** The model may not be suitable for FP8 quantization. Consider weight-only quantization or other methods.
+
+### Issue: Missing Weights Warning
+
+**Symptoms:** Warnings about unloaded weights for `vae.*` or `text_encoder.*` parameters.
+
+**Solution:** Ensure `load_weights` marks pre-loaded component weights. See [Step 2.3](#23-fix-load_weights-to-include-pre-loaded-components).
+
+### Issue: CUDA Out of Memory
+
+**Symptoms:** OOM errors during model loading despite FP8 being enabled.
+
+**Causes & Solutions:**
+
+- **Text encoder/VAE loaded in BF16 before FP8 conversion:**
+
+    FP8 weight storage is applied after `from_pretrained()`, so peak load memory is still BF16. This is a one-time cost during initialization.
+

+# Adding a TTS Model
+
+This guide walks through adding a new TTS model to vLLM-Omni, using **Qwen3-TTS**
+as a reference. Qwen3-TTS demonstrates the standard two-stage TTS pipeline and the
+key optimizations all TTS models in this repo should follow.

+
+## Overview
+
+vLLM-Omni supports TTS models as multi-stage pipelines where each stage runs independently
+and can be placed on different devices. Qwen3-TTS has two stages:
+
+| Stage | Name | Input | Output |
+|-------|------|-------|--------|
+| 0 | Code Predictor (AR) | Text tokens | Discrete RVQ codec codes |
+| 1 | Code2Wav (Decoder) | RVQ codec codes | Audio waveform |
+
+Each stage is a separate model class configured independently via YAML. The two stages
+are connected by the `async_chunk` framework, which enables inter-stage streaming for
+low first-packet latency (see [Async Chunk Design](../../design/feature/async_chunk_design.md)).
+
+### Without async_chunk (batch mode)
+
+Stage 0 runs to completion before Stage 1 starts, resulting in long first-packet latency:
+
+```mermaid
+flowchart TB
+    subgraph stage0["Stage 0: AR Code Predictor"]
+        direction LR
+        P[Prefill] --> D1[Decode 1]
+        D1 --> D2[Decode 2]
+        D2 --> Dots1["..."]
+        Dots1 --> DN[Decode N]
+    end
+
+    subgraph stage1["Stage 1: Code2Wav"]
+        direction LR
+        DEC[Decode all codes at once]
+    end
+
+    stage0 -- "all N codes" --> stage1
+    stage1 --> FPL["First Packet Latency = Stage 0 + Stage 1"]
+

+    style stage1 fill:#f8d7c8,stroke:#d4856a
+    style FPL fill:#e8f0fe,stroke:#3366CC,stroke-width:2px
+```
+
+### With async_chunk (streaming mode)
+
+Stage 0 sends codec codes to Stage 1 every `chunk_size=25` tokens. Stage 1 begins decoding
+immediately, reducing first-packet latency from the full AR time to just the first chunk:
+
+```mermaid
+flowchart TB
+    subgraph stage0["Stage 0: Code Predictor (AR)"]
+        direction LR
+        P[Prefill] --> D1["Decode 1-25"]
+        D1 --> D2["Decode 26-50"]
+        D2 --> Dots1["..."]
+        Dots1 --> DN["Decode N"]
+    end
+
+    subgraph stage1["Stage 1: Code2Wav"]
+        direction LR
+        C1["Chunk 1\n(25 frames)"] --> C2["Chunk 2\n(context + 25)"]
+        C2 --> Dots2["..."]
+        Dots2 --> CN["Final chunk"]
+    end
+
+    D1 -. "chunk 1 (25 codes)" .-> C1
+    D2 -. "chunk 2 (context + 25)" .-> C2
+    DN -. "final" .-> CN
+
+    stage0 --> FPL["⏱ First Packet Latency = Prefill + 25 decode steps only"]
+
+    style stage0 fill:#dae8fc,stroke:#6c8ebf
+    style stage1 fill:#e8d4f8,stroke:#8a6cad
+    style FPL fill:#e8f0fe,stroke:#3366CC,stroke-width:2px
+```
+
+Key parameters: `chunk_size=25`, `left_context_size=25` (validated defaults from Qwen3-TTS
+and Qwen3-Omni).
+

+**It must use vLLM's native decoder layers with fused ops and PagedAttention** for the LLM
+backbone - this is the primary source of speedup over HuggingFace inference.
+
+#### 1.1 Use vLLM Decoder Layers Directly
+
+Build your transformer layers from the corresponding vLLM decoder layer class (e.g.
+`Qwen3DecoderLayer` for Qwen3-based backbones, or the equivalent for LLaMA, Qwen2, etc.).
+Do not wrap the HuggingFace model directly - that bypasses PagedAttention and fused kernels.
+
+```python
+# your_model_ar_stage.py
+
+from vllm.model_executor.models.qwen3 import Qwen3DecoderLayer
+
+class YourTTSARStage(nn.Module):
+
+    def __init__(self, config, vllm_config, prefix):
+        self.layers = nn.ModuleList([
+            Qwen3DecoderLayer(
+                config, vllm_config=vllm_config, prefix=f"{prefix}.layers.{i}"
+            )
+            for i in range(config.num_hidden_layers)
+        ])
+        self.lm_head = ParallelLMHead(config.codec_size, config.hidden_size)
+```
+
+See `qwen3_tts_code_predictor_vllm.py` for the full implementation.
+
+#### 1.2 Forward Pass
+
+Implement `forward()` to return an `OmniOutput` with intermediate data for Stage 1:
+
+```python
+def forward(self, input_ids, positions, intermediate_tensors=None,
+            inputs_embeds=None, **kwargs) -> OmniOutput:
+    hidden_states = self.run_layers(input_ids, positions, intermediate_tensors, inputs_embeds)
+    logits = self.lm_head(hidden_states)
+
+    return OmniOutput(
+        text_hidden_states=hidden_states,
+        multimodal_outputs={
+            "audio_codes": self.extract_codes(logits),
+        },
+    )
+```
+
+The keys in `multimodal_outputs` are what your stage input processor will read to build
+Stage 1 inputs.
+
+#### 1.3 Weight Loading with Fused QKV
+
+When using vLLM's fused `QKVParallelLinear`, pack the HF `q_proj`/`k_proj`/`v_proj` weights
+into `qkv_proj` using `stacked_params_mapping`. See the `load_weights()` method in
+`qwen3_tts_code_predictor_vllm.py` for the standard pattern - it can be reused as-is
+for any Qwen-family backbone.
+
+#### 1.4 Custom Stop Condition (if needed)
+
+Some TTS models use a learned stop head rather than an EOS token. If your model does this,
+implement it inside `sample()`:
+
+```python
+def sample(self, logits, sampling_metadata) -> SamplerOutput | None:
+    output = self.sampler(logits, sampling_metadata)
+    if self._stop_head_fired():
+        output = mark_as_finished(output)
+    return output
+```
+
+### Step 2: Implement Stage 1 - Decoder
+
+Stage 1 decodes Stage 0 output into audio. It runs outside the scheduler (no PagedAttention
+needed). Implement `chunked_decode_streaming()` to support async_chunk streaming:
+
+```python
+# your_model_decoder.py
+
+class YourTTSDecoder(nn.Module):
+
+    def __init__(self, *, vllm_config: VllmConfig, prefix: str = ""):
+        super().__init__()
+        # Initialize your audio decoder (SpeechTokenizer, HiFiGAN, etc.)
+
+    def forward(self, codes: torch.Tensor, **kwargs) -> torch.Tensor:
+        return self.decoder(codes)
+
+    def chunked_decode_streaming(self, codes, chunk_size=25,
+                                  left_context_size=25) -> torch.Tensor:
+        """Decode with a sliding context window for smooth chunk boundaries."""
+        end_index = codes.shape[-1]
+        context_size = 0 if end_index <= chunk_size else left_context_size
+        wav_chunk = self(codes)
+        # Trim left context to avoid duplicate audio
+        return wav_chunk[..., context_size * self.total_upsample:]
+```
+
+### Step 3: Implement the Unified Model Class
+
+The unified class dispatches to the correct stage based on `model_stage` in the config:
+
+```python
+# your_model.py
+
+class YourTTSModelForConditionalGeneration(nn.Module, SupportsPP):
+
+    def __init__(self, *, vllm_config: VllmConfig, prefix: str = ""):
+        super().__init__()
+        self.model_stage = vllm_config.model_config.model_stage
+
+        if self.model_stage == "ar_stage":
+            ar_vllm_config = vllm_config.with_hf_config(
+                vllm_config.model_config.hf_config.ar_config,
+                architectures=["YourTTSARStageForConditionalGeneration"],
+            )
+            self.ar_stage = init_vllm_registered_model(
+                vllm_config=ar_vllm_config,
+                prefix=maybe_prefix(prefix, "ar"),
+                hf_config=ar_vllm_config.model_config.hf_config,
+                architectures=["YourTTSARStageForConditionalGeneration"],
+            )
+            self.model = self.ar_stage
+
+        elif self.model_stage == "decoder":
+            self.decoder = YourTTSDecoder(vllm_config=vllm_config, prefix=prefix)
+            self.model = self.decoder
+```
+
+### Step 4: Create `__init__.py`
+
+```python
+# vllm_omni/model_executor/models/your_model_name/__init__.py
+from .your_model import YourTTSModelForConditionalGeneration
+
+__all__ = ["YourTTSModelForConditionalGeneration"]
+```
+
+## Key Components
+
+### Model Interfaces
+
+Your unified model class should implement the appropriate interfaces:
+
+- **`SupportsPP`**: Required for pipeline parallelism support (all models should implement this)
+- **`SupportsMultiModal`**: Only if your model accepts multimodal inputs (e.g. reference audio for voice cloning)
+
+### Output Format
+
+Use `OmniOutput` so the orchestrator can route intermediate data between stages:
+
+```python
+from vllm_omni.model_executor.models.output_templates import OmniOutput
+
+return OmniOutput(
+    text_hidden_states=hidden_states,
+    multimodal_outputs={
+        "audio_codes": codec_codes,
+    },
+)
+```
+
+### Weight Loading from a Single Checkpoint
+
+If both stages load from one checkpoint, separate them by prefix in the unified class:
+
+```python
+def load_weights(self, weights: Iterable[tuple[str, torch.Tensor]]) -> set[str]:
+    ar_weights, decoder_weights = [], []
+    for name, tensor in weights:
+        if name.startswith("decoder."):
+            decoder_weights.append((name, tensor))
+        else:
+            ar_weights.append((name, tensor))
+
+    if self.model_stage == "ar_stage":
+        return self.ar_stage.load_weights(ar_weights)
+    elif self.model_stage == "decoder":
+        return self.decoder.load_weights(decoder_weights)
+```
+
+## Model Registration
+
+Register all stage classes in `vllm_omni/model_executor/models/registry.py`:
+
+```python
+_OMNI_MODELS = {
+    # (package_name, module_name, class_name)
+    "YourTTSModelForConditionalGeneration": (
+        "your_model_name", "your_model",
+        "YourTTSModelForConditionalGeneration",
+    ),
+    "YourTTSARStageForConditionalGeneration": (
+        "your_model_name", "your_model_ar_stage",
+        "YourTTSARStageForConditionalGeneration",
+    ),
+    "YourTTSDecoder": (
+        "your_model_name", "your_model_decoder",
+        "YourTTSDecoder",
+    ),
+}
+```
+
+The registry uses lazy loading - model classes are only imported when needed.
+
+## Stage Configuration
+
+Each stage has a `worker_type` that determines how it is scheduled:
+
+- `worker_type: ar` - autoregressive stage, uses `OmniARScheduler` with PagedAttention
+- `worker_type: generation` - non-AR stage (e.g. decoder), uses `OmniGenerationScheduler`
+
+Key configuration fields:
+
+| Field | Description |
+|-------|-------------|
+| `model_stage` | Which stage to initialize (`ar_stage`, `decoder`, etc.) |
+| `model_arch` | Architecture name, must match `registry.py` |
+| `engine_input_source` | List of upstream stage IDs that provide input (e.g. `[0]`) |
+| `engine_output_type` | Output type: `latent` for intermediate, `audio` for final |
+| `custom_process_next_stage_input_func` | Async chunk processor function path (streaming only) |
+| `final_output` | Whether this stage produces the final user-facing output |
+| `final_output_type` | Type of final output (`audio`, `text`, etc.) |
+
+### Batch mode
+
+```yaml
+# stage_configs/your_model_name.yaml

+  - stage_id: 0
+    stage_type: llm
+    runtime:
+      devices: "0"
+    engine_args:
+      model_stage: ar_stage
+      max_num_seqs: 64
+      model_arch: YourTTSModelForConditionalGeneration
+      worker_type: ar
+      scheduler_cls: vllm_omni.core.sched.omni_ar_scheduler.OmniARScheduler
+      engine_output_type: latent
+    default_sampling_params:

+    final_output: true
+    final_output_type: audio
+```
+
+### Streaming mode (async_chunk)
+
+Add `async_chunk: true` at the top level and specify `custom_process_next_stage_input_func`
+on Stage 0 to define how intermediate outputs are chunked and forwarded:
+
+```yaml
+# stage_configs/your_model_name_async_chunk.yaml

+    engine_input_source: [0]
+    final_output: true
+    final_output_type: audio
+```
+
+## Stage Input Processors
+
+Stage input processors convert Stage 0 outputs into Stage 1 inputs. Create yours in
+`vllm_omni/model_executor/stage_input_processors/your_model_name.py`.
+
+See `stage_input_processors/qwen3_tts.py` for the full reference implementation.
+
+### Data structures
+
+Understanding what's available in stage outputs:
+
+- `stage_list[source_id].engine_outputs` - list of `EngineCoreOutput` objects
+- Each `EngineCoreOutput` has `outputs` - list of `RequestOutput` objects
+- Each `RequestOutput` has:
+  - `token_ids` - generated token IDs
+  - `multimodal_output` - dict with keys matching your model's `OmniOutput.multimodal_outputs`
+  - `prompt_token_ids` - original prompt token IDs
+
+### Batch mode (non-streaming)
+
+Collects all Stage 0 outputs and forwards them to Stage 1 in one shot:
+
+```python
+def ar2decoder(
+    stage_list: list[Any],
+    engine_input_source: list[int],
+    prompt: OmniTokensPrompt | TextPrompt | None = None,
+    requires_multimodal_data: bool = False,
+) -> list[OmniTokensPrompt]:
+    source_id = engine_input_source[0]
+    decoder_inputs = []
+
+    for output in stage_list[source_id].engine_outputs:
+        result = output.outputs[0]
+        codes = result.multimodal_output["audio_codes"].cpu()
+        decoder_inputs.append(
+            OmniTokensPrompt(prompt_token_ids=codes.reshape(-1).tolist())
+        )
+
+    return decoder_inputs
+```
+
+### Streaming mode (async_chunk)
+
+Buffers Stage 0 outputs and forwards a chunk to Stage 1 once `chunk_size` frames
+have accumulated. The function signature follows the `OmniChunkTransferAdapter` protocol:
+
+```python
+def ar2decoder_async_chunk(
+    transfer_manager: Any,
+    pooling_output: dict[str, Any] | None,
+    request: Any,
+    is_finished: bool = False,
+) -> dict[str, Any] | None:
+    """Forward chunks of AR output to the decoder stage."""
+    request_id = request.external_req_id
+    finished = bool(is_finished or request.is_finished())
+
+    # Extract and buffer the latest frame
+    if isinstance(pooling_output, dict):
+        frame = extract_frame(pooling_output)
+        if frame is not None:
+            transfer_manager.code_prompt_token_ids[request_id].append(
+                frame.cpu().tolist()
+            )
+    elif not finished:
+        return None
+
+    # Read chunk config from connector
+    chunk_size = 25
+    left_context_size = 25
+
+    length = len(transfer_manager.code_prompt_token_ids[request_id])
+    if length <= 0:
+        if finished:
+            return {"codes": [], "finished": torch.tensor(True, dtype=torch.bool)}
+        return None
+
+    # Wait until a full chunk is ready (or request is finished)
+    chunk_length = length % chunk_size
+    if chunk_length != 0 and not finished:
+        return None
+
+    # Build context window: left_context + chunk
+    context_length = chunk_length if chunk_length != 0 else chunk_size
+    end_index = min(length, left_context_size + context_length)
+    window = transfer_manager.code_prompt_token_ids[request_id][-end_index:]
+
+    return {
+        "codes": torch.tensor(window).transpose(0, 1).reshape(-1).tolist(),
+        "left_context_size": max(0, int(end_index - context_length)),
+        "finished": torch.tensor(finished, dtype=torch.bool),
+    }
+```
+
+Key points:
+- `transfer_manager` is the `OmniChunkTransferAdapter` that owns the chunk lifecycle
+- Each call appends one AR decode step's output; a chunk is emitted every `chunk_size` steps
+- The final (possibly partial) chunk is flushed when `is_finished` is true
+- `left_context_size` frames of overlap are included for smooth audio boundaries
+
+## Testing
+
+For general testing conventions, see [tests_style.md](../ci/tests_style.md).
+
+Recommended test cases for a new TTS model:
+
+1. **Single request** - verify waveform output shape and sample rate
+2. **Batched requests** - verify each request in the batch finishes independently
+3. **async_chunk streaming** - verify audio chunks arrive incrementally and decode correctly
+4. **Speaker conditioning** (if applicable) - verify different speaker inputs produce different outputs
+
+Reference test: `tests/model_executor/stage_input_processors/test_qwen3_tts_async_chunk.py`
+
+## Adding a Model Recipe
+
+After implementing and testing your model, add a model recipe to the
+[vllm-project/recipes](https://github.com/vllm-project/recipes) repository so users can
+get started quickly. See [Adding an Omni-Modality Model](./adding_omni_model.md#adding-a-model-recipe)
+for the expected format.
+
+## Summary
+
+Adding a TTS model to vLLM-Omni involves:
+
+1. **Create model directory** with AR stage, decoder stage, and unified class
+2. **AR stage** - use vLLM's native decoder layers with fused QKV; do not wrap HF directly
+3. **Decoder stage** - thin wrapper around your audio decoder; implement `chunked_decode_streaming()`
+4. **Unified class** - dispatches on `model_stage`; same structure as `Qwen3TTSModelForGeneration`
+5. **Register** all stage classes in `registry.py`
+6. **YAML configs** - provide both batch and `async_chunk` variants
+7. **Stage input processor** - buffer Stage 0 outputs and forward in chunks of 25
+8. **Tests** - cover single request, batching, and async_chunk streaming
+9. **Model recipe** - add to [vllm-project/recipes](https://github.com/vllm-project/recipes)

-Output files are saved to your configured ```VLLM_TORCH_PROFILER_DIR```.
+When `profiler_config` is set in the stage YAML, the server automatically exposes `/start_profile` and `/stop_profile` HTTP endpoints.
+
+**1. Start the server** with a stage YAML that has `profiler_config` enabled:
+```bash
+vllm serve Qwen/Qwen2.5-Omni-7B \
+    --omni \
+    --stage-configs-path qwen2_5_omni.yaml \
+    --port 8091
+```
+
+Or for one stage diffusion models:
+
+```bash
+vllm serve Wan-AI/Wan2.2-I2V-A14B-Diffusers --omni --port 8091 --profiler-config '{"profiler": "torch", "torch_profiler_dir": "./vllm_profile"}'
+```
+
+**2. Start profiling** by sending a POST request:
+```bash
+# Profile all stages that have profiler_config set
+curl -X POST http://localhost:8091/start_profile
+
+# Profile specific stages only
+curl -X POST http://localhost:8091/start_profile \
+    -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+    -d '{"stages": [0]}'
+```
+
+**3. Send your inference requests** as normal while the profiler is running.
+
+**4. Stop profiling** and collect traces:
+```bash
+# Stop all stages
+curl -X POST http://localhost:8091/stop_profile
+
+# Stop specific stages (must match the stages you started)
+curl -X POST http://localhost:8091/stop_profile \
+    -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+    -d '{"stages": [0]}'
+```
+
+Trace files are written to the `torch_profiler_dir` specified in your stage YAML.
+
+> **Important:** Always stop the same stages you started. Stopping a stage that was never started will produce errors.

+### Classifier-Free Guidance (CFG) Companion Flow
+
+vLLM-Omni natively models Classifier-Free Guidance (CFG) across disaggregated multi-stage setups via a "companion request" paradigm, eliminating redundant textual/multimodal context computation boundaries:
+1. **Prompt Expansion:** In the initial autoregressive (AR) stage, a customized `prompt_expand_func` hook intercepts incoming generation prompts and pairs them directly with negative companion prompts (e.g., a default negative prompt) on the fly, tagging the secondary prompt with a specific internal role (`cfg_text`).
+2. **Synchronized KV Cache Transfer:** The AR stage evaluates both the primary and companion sequence batches concurrently. The `OmniConnector` captures these specific structural dependencies and reliably passes the positive and negative outcome KV caches seamlessly across stage boundaries via shared memory or network protocols.
+3. **KV Cache Collection & Injection:** Upon reaching the downstream Diffusion (DiT) Engine, an assigned `cfg_kv_collect_func` automatically intercepts the mapped companion caches (`cfg_text_past_key_values`). These auxiliary dependencies are natively gathered and seamlessly bound to the primary generation sequence variables, enabling the DiT Engine to cleanly implement cross-attention CFG guidance over accurate conditioning and unconditioning structures in parallel.

+
+When `predict_noise()` returns a tuple (e.g., video + audio), the default `combine_cfg_noise()` applies CFG to every element. Override it to apply different logic per element — for example, CFG on video but positive-only on audio:

+# Diffusion Step Execution
+
+This guide documents vLLM-Omni's stepwise diffusion contract for model authors
+and contributors implementing `step_execution=True` support for a diffusion
+pipeline.
+
+For end-user enablement, supported models, and current limitations, see
+[Step Execution](../../user_guide/diffusion/step_execution.md).
+
+## Current Support Scope
+
+`step_execution` is **not** a generic diffusion toggle. It only works for
+pipelines that implement the segmented stateful contract in
+[`vllm_omni/diffusion/models/interface.py`](gh-file:vllm_omni/diffusion/models/interface.py).
+
+Current in-tree support:
+
+| Pipeline | Example models | Step execution |
+|----------|----------------|----------------|
+| `QwenImagePipeline` | `Qwen/Qwen-Image`, `Qwen/Qwen-Image-2512` | Yes |
+| All other diffusion pipelines | `QwenImageEditPipeline`, `QwenImageEditPlusPipeline`, `QwenImageLayeredPipeline`, GLM-Image, Wan, Flux, etc. | No |
+
+Current engine/runtime limitations:
+
+- `StepScheduler` only schedules `batch_size=1`.
+- `cache_backend` is not supported in step mode.
+- Request-mode extras such as KV transfer are not wired into step mode yet.
+- Unsupported pipelines now fail early during model loading instead of failing on the first request.
+
+## Execution Contract
+
+Step mode is driven by four pipeline methods plus the shared mutable request
+state object:
+
+- `prepare_encode(state)`: one-time request preparation.
+- `denoise_step(state)`: compute the noise prediction for the current step.
+- `step_scheduler(state, noise_pred)`: mutate latents and advance step state.
+- `post_decode(state)`: decode the final output after denoising is complete.
+
+The state lives in
+[`vllm_omni/diffusion/worker/utils.py`](gh-file:vllm_omni/diffusion/worker/utils.py)
+as `DiffusionRequestState`. Store request-scoped tensors there, or use
+`state.extra` for model-specific fields that do not justify extending the core
+dataclass.
+
+The worker-side step loop lives in
+[`vllm_omni/diffusion/worker/diffusion_model_runner.py`](gh-file:vllm_omni/diffusion/worker/diffusion_model_runner.py):
+
+1. `prepare_encode()` runs once for a new request.
+2. `denoise_step()` runs every scheduler tick.
+3. `step_scheduler()` mutates `state.latents` and advances `state.step_index`.
+4. `post_decode()` runs exactly once after `state.denoise_completed` becomes true.
+
+## Recommended Split
+
+When converting an existing request-level `forward()` pipeline, keep the split
+strict and mechanical:
+
+| Request-level phase | Stepwise method | What belongs there |
+|---------------------|-----------------|--------------------|
+| Input validation, prompt encoding, latent init, timestep prep, per-request scheduler creation | `prepare_encode()` | Anything that should happen once per request |
+| Transformer forward / noise prediction | `denoise_step()` | Pure denoise computation for the current timestep |
+| `scheduler.step(...)` and `step_index += 1` | `step_scheduler()` | Only latent/state mutation for one step |
+| VAE decode / postprocess | `post_decode()` | Final decode only |
+
+Keep the stepwise path reusing the same helpers as the request-level path
+whenever possible. Reimplementing the denoise loop from scratch is the easiest
+way to introduce behavioral drift.
+
+## Qwen-Image Reference
+
+[`pipeline_qwen_image.py`](gh-file:vllm_omni/diffusion/models/qwen_image/pipeline_qwen_image.py)
+is the reference implementation and is split correctly for the current
+contract:
+
+- `prepare_encode()` reuses `_prepare_generation_context()` so prompt encoding,
+  latent init, timestep creation, CFG setup, and shape bookkeeping stay aligned
+  with `forward()`.
+- `prepare_encode()` deep-copies `self.scheduler` **after**
+  `prepare_timesteps()` so request-specific scheduler state is isolated.
+- `denoise_step()` reuses `_build_denoise_kwargs()` plus
+  `predict_noise_maybe_with_cfg()`, so sequential CFG, CFG-parallel, and
+  non-CFG behavior stay identical to the request-level path.
+- `step_scheduler()` only calls
+  `scheduler_step_maybe_with_cfg(..., per_request_scheduler=state.scheduler)`
+  and increments `state.step_index`.
+- `post_decode()` reuses `_decode_latents()`, so the final image decode matches
+  the normal `forward()` path.
+
+That decomposition is the target pattern for future models.
+
+## Rules For New Pipelines
+
+- Do not keep request-scoped scheduler state on `self.scheduler`. Copy it into
+  `state.scheduler` during `prepare_encode()`.
+- Do not mutate `state.step_index` inside `denoise_step()`. Only
+  `step_scheduler()` should advance the step.
+- Do not decode partial outputs in `denoise_step()` or `step_scheduler()`.
+- If the request-level pipeline has condition latents, masks, or edit-specific
+  tensors, store them in `state` or `state.extra`, not in global pipeline
+  attributes.
+- Preserve CFG behavior by sharing the same helper path used by `forward()`.
+- Keep `post_decode()` equivalent to the tail of `forward()`.
+
+## Validation Checklist
+
+Before marking a pipeline as `supports_step_execution = True`, verify:
+
+- Stepwise output matches request-level output for the same seed and sampling params.
+- Per-request scheduler state is isolated across concurrent requests.
+- Abort during denoise does not leak cached state.
+- `step_index` reported by `RunnerOutput` matches the scheduler progress.
+- CFG-parallel and non-CFG paths both work if the request-level pipeline supports them.

+## Design
+
+### 1. Overview
+
+`MooncakeStoreConnector` is the storage-oriented remote connector in `vllm_omni/distributed/omni_connectors`. It is built on top of Mooncake distributed store APIs and provides a uniform `put()` / `get()` abstraction for transferring stage payloads across nodes.
+
+Compared with `SharedMemoryConnector`, this connector is intended for multi-node deployments. Compared with `MooncakeTransferEngineConnector`, it is simpler and more object-oriented: data is written into a distributed store and fetched back by key, rather than transferred through an explicit remote-memory write protocol.
+
+Its primary role is to provide a general-purpose remote connector for stage payloads when:
+
+- the pipeline spans multiple hosts
+- a shared-memory connector is not possible
+- a simpler remote backend is preferred over the RDMA-oriented transfer engine
+
+### 2. Relationship with the OmniConnector System
+
+`MooncakeStoreConnector` implements `OmniConnectorBase`, so it integrates with the same connector lifecycle as the other backends:
+
+- `OmniConnectorFactory` instantiates it from `ConnectorSpec`
+- `load_omni_transfer_config()` maps edge config to the connector spec
+- All callers (batch forwarding, chunk transfer, KV transfer, etc.) interact with it through the same `put()` / `get()` contract
+
+This means the rest of the pipeline does not need store-specific logic. It only relies on the generic connector contract.
+
+### 3. Design Goals
+
+The connector is designed around the following goals:
+
+- **Cross-node object transfer** using a single key-based abstraction
+- **Minimal connector-specific control plane**, since the store itself is the shared medium
+- **Compatibility with arbitrary Python payloads** through the Omni serializer
+- **Operational simplicity** compared with the transfer-engine-based remote connector
+
+The connector is intentionally not optimized for zero-copy tensor movement or direct remote-memory access.
+
+### 4. Core Design
+
+#### 4.1 Object-Oriented Transfer Model
+
+`MooncakeStoreConnector` treats the transport backend as a distributed object store:
+
+1. Serialize the Python object into bytes.
+2. Generate a unique connector key.
+3. Store the bytes in Mooncake.
+4. Fetch the bytes from Mooncake on the receiver side.
+5. Deserialize the bytes back into the original object.
+
+This design makes the connector conceptually close to a distributed key-value transport.
+
+#### 4.2 Key Construction
+
+The connector uses `OmniConnectorBase._make_key()` to derive the internal store key:
+
+```text
+{request_key}@{from_stage}_{to_stage}
+```
+
+This adds stage routing information to the logical request key and avoids collisions between different pipeline edges.
+
+#### 4.3 No Extra Metadata Path
+
+Unlike `SharedMemoryConnector` and `MooncakeTransferEngineConnector`, this connector returns:
+
+```python
+metadata = None
+```
+
+from `put()`.
+
+This is a meaningful design difference:
+
+- the store itself is the shared rendezvous point
+- consumers only need the same key
+- no transport handle, address, or side-channel metadata needs to be propagated
+
+As a result, the control plane is simpler for this connector than for the SHM and RDMA variants.
+
+### 5. Initialization
+
+#### 5.1 Required Mooncake Components
+
+The connector requires the Mooncake Python bindings to expose:
+
+- `MooncakeDistributedStore`
+- `ReplicateConfig`
+
+If these symbols are unavailable, construction fails immediately with `ImportError`. This keeps startup failures explicit and avoids silent fallback behavior.
+
+#### 5.2 Store Setup
+
+During `_init_store()`, the connector:
+
+1. creates `MooncakeDistributedStore()`
+2. calls `store.setup(...)`
+3. validates the return code
+4. creates a `ReplicateConfig`
+5. enables `with_soft_pin = True`
+
+The setup step is completed during connector construction, not lazily at first use.
+
+### 6. Put / Get Flow
+
+#### 6.1 Producer Flow: `put()`
+
+The producer-side flow is:
+
+1. Validate that the store has been initialized.
+2. Serialize the payload into bytes.
+3. Build the internal key with stage routing information.
+4. Call `store.put(key, serialized_data, self.pin)`.
+5. Update metrics and return success.
+
+The returned tuple is:
+
+```python
+(True, len(serialized_data), None)
+```
+
+#### 6.2 Consumer Flow: `get()`
+
+The consumer-side flow is:
+
+1. Validate that the store has been initialized.
+2. Build the same internal key.
+3. Poll `store.get(key)` for up to 20 retries.
+4. Sleep 50 ms between retries.
+5. If data is found, deserialize it and return `(data, payload_size)`.
+6. If all retries are exhausted, record a timeout and return `None`.
+
+This design gives the connector a bounded waiting model rather than an indefinite blocking get.
+
+### 7. Integration with Stage Communication
+
+All callers use the connector through the same `put()` / `get()` contract:
+
+- the sender calls `put()` to serialize and store the payload
+- the receiver calls `get()` to retrieve and deserialize it
+- no connector-specific metadata is required, since the store key is the rendezvous point
+
+Because `put()` returns `metadata=None`, the connector is naturally compatible with callers that do not forward metadata (e.g. polling-based flows). The trade-off is that all payloads incur full serialization and deserialization costs, which makes the connector functional but not the highest-performance option for large payloads such as KV cache blocks.
+
+### 8. Data Flow in the Pipeline
+
+The end-to-end transfer model is:
+
+```mermaid
+sequenceDiagram
+    participant SenderStage
+    participant MooncakeStoreConnector
+    participant MooncakeStore
+    participant ReceiverStage
+
+    SenderStage->>MooncakeStoreConnector: put(from_stage, to_stage, put_key, data)
+    MooncakeStoreConnector->>MooncakeStoreConnector: serialize object
+    MooncakeStoreConnector->>MooncakeStore: put(internal_key, bytes)
+    MooncakeStoreConnector-->>SenderStage: (success, size, None)
+
+    ReceiverStage->>MooncakeStoreConnector: get(from_stage, to_stage, get_key)
+    MooncakeStoreConnector->>MooncakeStore: get(internal_key)
+    MooncakeStoreConnector->>MooncakeStoreConnector: deserialize bytes
+    MooncakeStoreConnector-->>ReceiverStage: (data, size)
+```
+
+This is a store-mediated remote transfer model rather than a direct peer-to-peer transport model.
+
+### 9. Strengths and Trade-offs
+
+#### Strengths
+
+- Simple conceptual model: store by key, fetch by key.
+- No connector-specific metadata handoff is required.
+- Works naturally for remote multi-node stage transfer.
+- Easy to integrate into the existing connector abstraction.
+
+#### Trade-offs
+
+- Full serialization and deserialization are always required.
+- Large payloads are more expensive than in direct-memory transports.
+- Runtime behavior depends on external Mooncake services being available.
+- Cleanup semantics are weaker than request-scoped local buffer management.
+
+### 10. Important Implementation Characteristics
+
+#### 10.1 Cleanup Is a No-op
+
+`cleanup()` only logs a debug message and does not actively delete remote data. The current design assumes Mooncake-side lifecycle management rather than explicit per-request removal.
+
+This keeps the connector implementation simple but means request-level reclamation is not modeled inside the connector itself.
+
+#### 10.2 Close Releases the Store Handle
+
+Unlike `SharedMemoryConnector`, where `close()` is a no-op, `MooncakeStoreConnector.close()` performs a meaningful shutdown:
+
+1. Calls `self.store.close()` to release the Mooncake store handle.
+2. Sets `self.store = None` to prevent further operations.
+
+This ensures the connector releases its connection to the external Mooncake service on shutdown. Errors during close are logged but do not propagate.
+
+#### 10.3 Health Output Uses a Shared Schema
+
+`health()` reports:
+
+- `host`
+- `metadata_server`
+- `master`
+- metrics
+
+and also includes placeholder fields such as `protocol`, `pool_device`, and `pool_size` to keep a more uniform shape across connector health outputs. This reflects a system-level consistency choice rather than a store-specific design need.
+
+#### 10.4 Get Is Retry-Based, Not Event-Driven
+
+The receiver side polls the store with a short retry loop. This is simple and robust, but it means the connector is latency-sensitive to:
+
+- store visibility delay
+- network jitter
+- payload size
+
+If the payload is not visible within the retry window, the connector reports a timeout.
+
+### 11. Summary
+
+`MooncakeStoreConnector` is the remote, store-based connector in the OmniConnector stack. Its design is straightforward:
+
+- serialize the payload
+- store it in Mooncake under a stage-qualified key
+- fetch it by the same key on the receiver side
+- deserialize it back into the original object
+
+This connector fills an important gap in the system:
+
+1. It enables cross-node transfer without requiring shared memory.
+2. It keeps the stage communication model uniform.
+3. It provides a simpler operational alternative to the transfer-engine-based remote connector.
+
+Its simplicity is also its main trade-off: it favors a clean object-transfer model over the fast-path and peer-to-peer optimizations implemented by `MooncakeTransferEngineConnector`.

+
+## Design
+
+### 1. Overview
+
+`MooncakeTransferEngineConnector` is the high-performance remote connector in `vllm_omni/distributed/omni_connectors`. It is built on top of Mooncake `TransferEngine` and combines:
+
+- a **direct data plane** for remote memory writes
+- a **ZMQ side channel** for metadata lookup, handshake, and completion signaling
+- a **managed local memory pool** for both send and receive buffers
+
+Unlike `MooncakeStoreConnector`, which treats the backend as a distributed store, `MooncakeTransferEngineConnector` is designed as a peer-to-peer transport. Its goal is to move large stage payloads efficiently while still fitting the common `put()` / `get()` API defined by `OmniConnectorBase`.
+
+It is the most performance-oriented connector in the current OmniConnector family and is intended for large remote payloads such as:
+
+- KV cache transfer
+- stage hidden-state payloads
+- streaming chunk payloads
+- other binary-heavy inter-stage artifacts
+
+### 2. Relationship with the OmniConnector System
+
+`MooncakeTransferEngineConnector` implements the same connector contract as the other backends:
+
+- `put(from_stage, to_stage, put_key, data)`
+- `get(from_stage, to_stage, get_key, metadata=None)`
+- `cleanup(request_id, ...)`
+- `health()`
+- `close()`
+
+It is integrated into the system through the standard connector plumbing:
+
+- `OmniConnectorFactory` constructs the connector from `ConnectorSpec`
+- `load_omni_transfer_config()` resolves the edge-level connector configuration
+- `get_connectors_config_for_stage()` and `resolve_omni_kv_config_for_stage()` inject the connector role
+- All callers (batch forwarding, chunk transfer, KV transfer, etc.) interact with it through the same `put()` / `get()` contract
+
+The key system-level distinction is that this connector is **role-aware**:
+
+- sender instances expose data and listen for pull requests
+- receiver instances allocate buffers and actively pull data from the sender
+
+### 3. Design Goals
+
+The connector is designed around four primary goals:
+
+1. **High-throughput remote transfer**
+   Avoid store-mediated round trips and write directly into the receiver memory region.
+
+2. **Fast path for raw payloads**
+   Support `torch.Tensor`, `bytes`, and `ManagedBuffer` without forcing all traffic through full object serialization.
+
+3. **Unified connector abstraction**
+   Preserve the same `put()` / `get()` interface used by the rest of the OmniConnector stack.
+
+4. **Safe lifecycle management**
+   Manage allocation, reuse, cleanup, and failure recovery for a registered memory pool.
+
+### 4. Architecture Overview
+
+At a high level, the connector is composed of four main subsystems:

+```
+
+#### 4.1 Transfer Engine
+
+Mooncake `TransferEngine` is responsible for the actual data-plane transfer. It registers local memory and performs synchronous remote writes through:
+
+```python
+batch_transfer_sync_write(...)
+```
+
+#### 4.2 Managed Memory Pool
+
+Each connector instance owns a large pre-registered memory pool:
+
+- CPU pinned memory when `memory_pool_device == "cpu"`
+- GPU memory when `memory_pool_device == "cuda"`
+
+This avoids repeated memory registration and allows each transfer to allocate subranges from one long-lived pool.
+
+#### 4.3 Buffer Manager
+
+Two helper classes control local memory ownership:
+
+- `BufferAllocator`
+  Manages aligned subrange allocation and free-list merging.
+
+- `ManagedBuffer`
+  Represents one live slice of the pool and exposes:
+  - `.tensor`
+  - `.as_tensor(dtype, shape)`
+  - `.to_bytes()`
+  - `.release()`
+
+#### 4.4 ZMQ Side Channel
+
+ZMQ is used for transport coordination, not for the data payload itself. It handles:
+
+- metadata query from receiver to sender
+- pull request submission
+- completion or error signaling
+- internal notification from worker threads back to the listener thread
+
+This split makes the control plane lightweight while keeping the bulk payload on the transfer engine data plane.
+
+### 5. Role Model
+
+#### 5.1 Sender Role
+
+A sender connector:
+
+- accepts `put()` calls
+- stores live transfer-ready buffers in `_local_buffers`
+- starts a ZMQ listener thread
+- responds to metadata queries and pull requests from receivers
+
+#### 5.2 Receiver Role
+
+A receiver connector:
+
+- does not bind the sender-side ZMQ listener
+- accepts `get()` calls
+- allocates receive buffers from its own pool
+- requests metadata or transfer service from the sender
+
+The role is not inferred dynamically. It is injected by the stage configuration layer:
+
+- incoming edge for a stage -> `role="receiver"`
+- outgoing edge for a stage -> `role="sender"`
+
+This is important because incorrect role assignment would break initialization semantics.
+
+#### 5.3 Host Auto-Detection
+
+The `host` configuration field supports the special value `"auto"`. When set, the connector auto-detects the local IP address that would be used for external communication (via a UDP socket probe to `8.8.8.8`). If that fails, it falls back to hostname resolution, and ultimately to `127.0.0.1`.
+
+This is useful in environments where the operator does not want to hard-code IP addresses in the connector config.
+
+#### 5.4 RDMA Device Filtering
+
+The `device_name` configuration field allows the operator to specify which RDMA NICs to use (comma-separated, e.g. `"mlx5_0,mlx5_1"`). If not set in config, the connector also checks the `RDMA_DEVICE_NAME` environment variable.
+
+This is important in environments with mixed InfiniBand/RoCE NICs, where not all devices are suitable for the transfer engine.
+
+### 6. Local Memory Management
+
+#### 6.1 Memory Pool Registration
+
+During initialization, the connector:
+
+1. allocates a large pool tensor
+2. records its base pointer
+3. registers that memory with Mooncake
+4. creates a `BufferAllocator` for subrange management
+
+This means every later transfer only allocates offsets inside the pre-registered pool rather than registering memory per request.
+
+#### 6.2 BufferAllocator
+
+`BufferAllocator` maintains a sorted free list of `(offset, size)` blocks and enforces alignment. Its responsibilities include:
+
+- aligned allocation
+- freeing previously allocated blocks
+- adjacent block merging
+- double-free detection
+- overlap detection to catch corruption
+
+This is a critical piece of the connector because both sender and receiver depend on long-lived pool reuse.
+
+#### 6.3 ManagedBuffer
+
+`ManagedBuffer` is the main fast-path data wrapper. It can:
+
+- expose the pool slice as a zero-copy 1D `uint8` tensor
+- reinterpret that slice as a typed tensor
+- copy out the contents as Python `bytes`
+- release the slice back to the allocator
+
+The connector uses `ManagedBuffer` in two different ways:
+
+- as a send-side holder to keep the pool slice alive
+- as a receive-side return type when `is_fast_path=True`
+
+### 7. Put Flow
+
+#### 7.1 High-Level Behavior
+
+`put()` is only valid in sender mode. Its job is to expose a payload for later remote pull by the receiver.
+
+The high-level flow is:
+
+1. validate connector state and role
+2. convert the input into a pool-backed transferable representation
+3. store the transfer metadata in `_local_buffers`
+4. return lightweight metadata describing how the receiver can fetch the data
+
+#### 7.2 Payload Type Handling
+
+`put()` supports three payload classes:
+
+**A. `ManagedBuffer`**
+
+If the buffer belongs to the same pool, the connector can use it directly without copying. This is the most efficient path.
+
+If the buffer comes from a different pool, the connector falls back to a copy path.
+
+**B. `torch.Tensor` or `bytes`**
+
+These payloads are copied into the local pool and marked as fast-path data:
+
+- no Omni object serialization is required
+- receiver can get a `ManagedBuffer` back
+
+**C. Generic Python object**
+
+Any other payload is serialized via `OmniSerializer.serialize(...)` and then copied into the pool.
+
+In this case:
+
+- `is_fast_path=False`
+- the receiver will deserialize back into a Python object
+
+#### 7.3 Sender Metadata
+
+The sender returns:
+
+```python
+{
+    "source_host": self.host,
+    "source_port": self.zmq_port,
+    "data_size": size,
+    "is_fast_path": is_fast_path,
+}
+```
+
+This metadata is intentionally lightweight. It tells the receiver:
+
+- where the sender-side control plane lives
+- how large the remote transfer will be
+- whether the payload should be returned as a `ManagedBuffer` or a deserialized object
+
+#### 7.4 Sender Buffer Table
+
+The sender stores each live payload in `_local_buffers` under the stage-qualified key. Each entry contains:
+
+- source addresses
+- lengths
+- the holder object
+- ownership information (`should_release`)
+- `is_fast_path`
+- creation time
+
+This table is the sender-side truth source for both metadata queries and pull requests.
+
+### 8. Get Flow
+
+#### 8.1 High-Level Behavior
+
+`get()` runs on the receiver side and performs four steps:
+
+1. resolve metadata
+2. allocate a destination buffer in the local pool
+3. request the sender to write into that destination buffer
+4. return either a `ManagedBuffer` or a deserialized object
+
+#### 8.2 Metadata Resolution Paths
+
+The `metadata` parameter in `get()` is optional. The connector supports two resolution modes depending on whether the caller supplies it.
+
+**With metadata**
+
+When the caller passes metadata, the connector uses it directly. The metadata carries:
+
+- `source_host` / `source_port` — sender ZMQ endpoint
+- `data_size` — payload byte count
+- `is_fast_path` — whether the receiver gets a `ManagedBuffer` or a deserialized object
+
+This mode is suitable when the control plane already forwards the sender's `put()` output to the receiver.
+
+**Without metadata**
+
+When `get(metadata=None)` is called, the connector queries the sender over ZMQ to discover the same fields (`data_size`, `is_fast_path`). The caller must first call:
+
+```python
+update_sender_info(sender_host, sender_zmq_port)
+```
+
+so that the connector knows where to send the query.
+
+This mode is suitable for polling-based flows (e.g. KV transfer, async chunk transfer) where the receiver does not have metadata from the control plane.
+
+#### 8.3 Destination Allocation
+
+Once metadata is resolved, the receiver:
+
+1. allocates a subrange from its own local pool
+2. wraps it in a `ManagedBuffer`
+3. builds a `MooncakeAgentMetadata` request containing:
+   - receiver hostname
+   - receiver RPC port
+   - request ID
+   - destination addresses
+   - transfer lengths
+
+This tells the sender exactly where to write the incoming data.
+
+#### 8.4 Transfer Completion
+
+The receiver then sends the pull request over ZMQ and waits for:
+
+- `TRANS_DONE`
+- or `TRANS_ERROR`
+
+If the transfer succeeds:
+
+- for `is_fast_path=True`, the receiver returns `(ManagedBuffer, size)`
+- for `is_fast_path=False`, the receiver copies to bytes, deserializes, releases the buffer, and returns `(object, size)`
+
+### 9. Sender-Side Listener Design
+
+#### 9.1 Listener Thread
+
+In sender mode, the connector starts `_zmq_listener_loop()` after initialization. The listener:
+
+- binds `tcp://{host}:{zmq_port}`
+- receives incoming requests
+- uses a poller for socket events and internal notifications
+- periodically reclaims stale buffers
+
+If the bind fails, initialization fails immediately. The code does not silently downgrade the connector role.
+
+#### 9.2 Worker Thread Pool
+
+The listener hands work to `_sender_executor` so that the listener thread does not block on transfer work.
+
+There are two request types:
+
+- metadata query -> `_handle_query_request(...)`
+- transfer request -> `_handle_pull_request(...)`
+
+#### 9.3 Query Handling
+
+For metadata queries, the sender looks up the request ID in `_local_buffers` and returns:
+
+- data size
+- fast-path flag
+
+This supports consumers that only know the sender endpoint but not the original sender metadata.
+
+#### 9.4 Pull Handling
+
+For a transfer request, the sender:
+
+1. locates the source addresses in `_local_buffers`
+2. constructs the remote session identifier
+3. calls `batch_transfer_sync_write(...)`
+4. replies `TRANS_DONE` or `TRANS_ERROR`
+
+On success, the sender immediately calls `cleanup(meta.request_id)` and frees the producer-side buffer if it owns it.
+
+This choice is important: it makes the connector effectively a **single-consumer transfer model** for each successful put/get pair.
+
+### 10. Fast Path Semantics
+
+This connector explicitly advertises:
+
+```python
+supports_raw_data = True
+```
+
+That means it can move raw payloads without forcing everything through the Omni object serializer.
+
+#### Fast Path
+
+For `torch.Tensor`, `bytes`, or pool-local `ManagedBuffer`:
+
+- sender returns `is_fast_path=True`
+- receiver returns a `ManagedBuffer`
+- caller is responsible for calling `release()`
+
+This avoids an unnecessary copy on the receiver side.
+
+#### Serialized Object Path
+
+For arbitrary Python objects:
+
+- sender serializes the payload
+- receiver converts the receive buffer to bytes
+- receiver deserializes the object
+- receive buffer is released internally
+
+This preserves a uniform object-oriented API while still allowing optimized raw-data transport when possible.
+
+### 11. Failure Handling and Cleanup
+
+#### 11.1 Timeouts and Socket Recovery
+
+The receiver caches ZMQ REQ sockets per thread, but invalidates them after failures. This avoids reusing sockets that may be stuck in a bad state after timeout or receive errors.
+
+Timeout is scaled based on payload size:
+
+- a base timeout
+- plus additional time for large payloads
+
+This is intended to reduce false timeouts for large remote writes.
+
+#### 11.2 Stale Buffer Reclamation
+
+The sender periodically reclaims old entries from `_local_buffers` using a TTL policy. This protects the memory pool from permanent leaks if a receiver crashes or never consumes a prepared payload.
+
+This is a practical recovery mechanism, although the code notes that TTL cleanup can still race with very long-running in-flight transfers.
+
+#### 11.3 Connector Shutdown
+
+`close()` is a full resource teardown routine. It:
+
+- stops the listener thread
+- shuts down the worker executor
+- releases all pending buffers
+- closes cached sockets
+- unregisters memory from the engine when supported
+- terminates the ZMQ context
+- drops the pool reference
+
+This makes `MooncakeTransferEngineConnector` the most lifecycle-aware connector in the current connector family.
+
+### 12. Current Implementation Constraints
+
+The current code documents several important topology constraints.
+
+#### 12.1 One Sender to One Receiver per Successful Transfer
+
+After a successful transfer, the sender-side buffer is cleaned up immediately. This means the same prepared payload is not retained for multiple independent receivers.
+
+#### 12.2 One Receiver to One Active Sender Endpoint
+
+The receiver only stores one `(sender_host, sender_zmq_port)` pair through `update_sender_info(...)`. So the metadata-query mode is currently single-sender at a time.
+
+#### 12.3 Explicit Buffer Ownership Matters
+
+When the connector allocates a pool slice internally, it is responsible for releasing it. When a caller passes an externally owned `ManagedBuffer`, the connector keeps it alive for transfer but does not assume ownership of its eventual release.
+
+These constraints are consistent with the current implementation and should be treated as design assumptions rather than incidental behavior.
+
+### 13. Data Flow in the Pipeline
+
+The end-to-end sender/receiver interaction is:
+
+```mermaid
+sequenceDiagram
+    participant SenderStage
+    participant SenderConnector
+    participant ReceiverConnector
+    participant ReceiverStage
+
+    SenderStage->>SenderConnector: put(from_stage, to_stage, put_key, data)
+    SenderConnector->>SenderConnector: place payload in local memory pool
+    SenderConnector-->>SenderStage: metadata(source_host, source_port, data_size, is_fast_path)
+
+    ReceiverStage->>ReceiverConnector: get(..., metadata)
+    ReceiverConnector->>ReceiverConnector: allocate destination buffer
+    ReceiverConnector->>SenderConnector: ZMQ pull request with dst addr
+    SenderConnector->>ReceiverConnector: TransferEngine remote write
+    SenderConnector-->>ReceiverConnector: TRANS_DONE
+    ReceiverConnector-->>ReceiverStage: ManagedBuffer or deserialized object
+```
+
+For metadata-less polling, the flow simply adds a metadata query step before the pull request.
+
+### 14. Strengths and Trade-offs
+
+#### Strengths
+
+- Best remote-transfer design in the current connector stack for large payloads.
+- Supports raw-data fast path.
+- Keeps stage communication under the same connector abstraction.
+- Includes real lifecycle and memory-pool management.
+- Works for both stage payload transfer and KV transfer scenarios.
+
+#### Trade-offs
+
+- More complex than the store-based connector.
+- Correctness depends on role injection and endpoint coordination.
+- Caller must release fast-path receive buffers.
+- Current implementation is optimized for single-consumer transfer semantics.
+
+### 15. Summary
+
+`MooncakeTransferEngineConnector` is the high-performance peer-to-peer transport in the OmniConnector system. Its design combines:
+
+- a registered memory pool
+- a safe subrange allocator
+- a ZMQ control plane
+- a Mooncake transfer-engine data plane
+
+This allows the connector to support both:
+
+1. a **fast path** for raw tensors and bytes
+2. a **generic object path** for arbitrary Python payloads
+
+Within vLLM-Omni, it is the connector that most directly targets performance-sensitive remote transfer, especially for large payloads and KV cache movement. Its additional complexity is deliberate: it is the connector that turns the generic OmniConnector abstraction into a transport capable of efficient remote memory movement rather than simple object storage.

+
+## Design
+
+### 1. Overview
+
+`SharedMemoryConnector` is the default same-node connector in `vllm_omni/distributed/omni_connectors`. It is designed for stage-to-stage transfer when producer and consumer processes run on the same host and can share `/dev/shm`.
+
+The connector provides a unified `put()` / `get()` API for arbitrary Python objects while keeping the control plane lightweight:
+
+- The payload is serialized by the connector.
+- The serialized bytes are placed in shared memory.
+- The queue/control plane only carries a small metadata handle.
+
+This makes `SharedMemoryConnector` the simplest connector in the OmniConnector family and the default fallback when an edge does not explicitly configure another backend.
+
+### 2. Relationship with the OmniConnector System
+
+`SharedMemoryConnector` implements `OmniConnectorBase`, so it follows the same lifecycle and API contract as the other connectors:
+
+- `put(from_stage, to_stage, put_key, data)`
+- `get(from_stage, to_stage, get_key, metadata=None)`
+- `cleanup(request_id)`
+- `health()`
+- `close()`
+
+Within the larger system:
+
+- `load_omni_transfer_config()` automatically fills missing edges with `SharedMemoryConnector`.
+- Callers interact with the connector exclusively through the `put()` / `get()` / `cleanup()` contract — the connector does not require caller-specific logic.
+
+Compared with the remote Mooncake-based connectors, `SharedMemoryConnector` is intentionally minimal and local-only.
+
+### 3. Design Goals
+
+The connector is built around the following goals:
+
+- **Low-friction local transfer** for single-node multi-process pipelines.
+- **Unified object semantics** for arbitrary Python payloads.
+- **Small control-plane overhead** by passing only metadata through queues.
+- **Zero external dependencies** beyond Python shared memory and the existing stage utilities.
+
+It is not intended to provide cross-node transfer, RDMA, or raw tensor zero-copy semantics across processes.
+
+### 4. Core Design
+
+#### 4.1 Serialization Model
+
+`SharedMemoryConnector` always starts from a Python object and serializes it through the shared Omni serializer:
+
+```python
+payload = self.serialize_obj(data)
+```
+
+This keeps the connector behavior consistent with the rest of the connector stack:
+
+- producer code does not need connector-specific serialization logic
+- consumer code always receives the original object after deserialization
+- the connector can reuse the same serializer used by other backends
+
+#### 4.2 Shared Memory as the Data Plane
+
+The actual data plane is a shared-memory segment created by:
+
+- `shm_write_bytes(...)`
+- `shm_read_bytes(...)`
+
+The connector stores a small metadata object such as:
+
+```python
+{
+    "shm": {"name": ..., "size": ...},
+    "size": ...
+}
+```
+
+This metadata is passed over the control plane and allows the downstream stage to locate the shared-memory segment.
+
+#### 4.3 Locking Model
+
+To avoid races between the producer and consumer, the connector uses a lock file per request:
+
+```text
+/dev/shm/shm_{put_key}_lockfile.lock
+```
+
+Locking is done with `fcntl.flock`:
+
+- producer uses `LOCK_EX`
+- consumer uses `LOCK_EX`
+
+Both sides acquire an exclusive lock. This ensures that the shared-memory segment is not read while it is still being written and makes the handoff safer in a multi-process environment.
+
+### 5. Put / Get Flow
+
+#### 5.1 Producer Flow: `put()`
+
+The producer-side flow is:
+
+1. Serialize the input object to bytes.
+2. Compute the payload size.
+3. Acquire the per-request lock file.
+4. Write the bytes into shared memory.
+5. Return lightweight metadata to the caller.
+
+The returned tuple is:
+
+```python
+(success, serialized_size, metadata)
+```
+
+where `metadata` contains the shared-memory handle needed by the consumer.
+
+#### 5.2 Consumer Flow: `get(metadata=...)`
+
+The primary consumer path is metadata-driven:
+
+1. Extract the shared-memory handle from `metadata`.
+2. Acquire the exclusive lock.
+3. Read the raw bytes from shared memory.
+4. Deserialize the bytes back into the original Python object.
+5. Remove the lock file if it still exists.
+
+This is the path used by the current stage-to-stage connector flow.
+
+#### 5.3 Compatibility Flow: `get(metadata=None)`
+
+The connector also keeps a compatibility path for callers that only know the key:
+
+1. Attempt to open the shared-memory segment by name via `SharedMemory(name=get_key)`.
+2. If the segment exists and has non-zero size, acquire the exclusive lock and read the bytes.
+3. Deserialize the bytes and return the object.
+
+If the segment does not exist or any exception occurs, the call returns `None` immediately. There is no retry loop in this path -- it is a single-attempt open.
+
+This path is mainly for older code paths and is not the preferred mode for the current connector pipeline.
+
+### 6. Key Implementation Characteristics
+
+#### 6.1 Threshold Exists, but the Current Code Always Uses SHM
+
+The class keeps a `shm_threshold_bytes` field and still exposes metrics for inline writes. However, the current implementation uses:
+
+```python
+if True:
+    ...
+```
+
+inside `put()`, which means the current code path always writes to shared memory.
+
+So the design still suggests a future split between:
+
+- small payloads inline
+- large payloads in shared memory
+
+but the current behavior is effectively:
+
+- all payloads go through shared memory
+
+This should be documented because it affects real runtime behavior.
+
+#### 6.2 Cleanup Is Currently Passive
+
+`cleanup()` is currently a no-op. The intended assumption is:
+
+- the consumer reads the segment
+- the underlying shared-memory helpers unlink it
+
+If the consumer never executes `get()`, the shared-memory segment may remain allocated. This means the connector relies on the normal success path for resource reclamation.
+
+#### 6.3 Close Is Currently Minimal
+
+`close()` is also a no-op. There is no connector-owned background thread, socket, or memory pool to tear down, so the lifecycle is simple. The trade-off is that `close()` does not scan or recover leaked shared-memory resources.
+
+### 7. Data Flow in the Pipeline
+
+The typical flow with `SharedMemoryConnector` is:
+
+```mermaid
+sequenceDiagram
+    participant SenderStage
+    participant SharedMemoryConnector
+    participant QueueOrControlPlane
+    participant ReceiverStage
+
+    SenderStage->>SharedMemoryConnector: put(from_stage, to_stage, put_key, data)
+    SharedMemoryConnector->>SharedMemoryConnector: serialize object
+    SharedMemoryConnector->>SharedMemoryConnector: write bytes to /dev/shm
+    SharedMemoryConnector-->>SenderStage: metadata {shm, size}
+    SenderStage->>QueueOrControlPlane: forward connector metadata
+    QueueOrControlPlane->>ReceiverStage: task + connector metadata
+    ReceiverStage->>SharedMemoryConnector: get(from_stage, to_stage, get_key, metadata)
+    SharedMemoryConnector->>SharedMemoryConnector: read bytes from /dev/shm
+    SharedMemoryConnector->>SharedMemoryConnector: deserialize object
+    SharedMemoryConnector-->>ReceiverStage: (data, size)
+```
+
+This is a classic split-control-plane / data-plane design, but constrained to a single host.
+
+### 8. Strengths and Trade-offs
+
+#### Strengths
+
+- Very simple deployment model.
+- No external service dependency.
+- Fits naturally into the existing queue-driven orchestration flow.
+- Good default for local multi-process pipelines.
+
+#### Trade-offs
+
+- Same-node only.
+- Full object serialization and deserialization are still required.
+- Resource cleanup depends on the normal consumer path.
+- Shared memory capacity is limited by host configuration.
+
+### 9. Summary
+
+`SharedMemoryConnector` is the baseline local transport for the OmniConnector system. Its design is intentionally straightforward:
+
+- serialize object
+- place bytes in shared memory
+- pass metadata through the control plane
+- deserialize on the receiving side
+
+It plays two important roles in vLLM-Omni:
+
+1. It is the simplest production-ready connector for same-node stage pipelines.
+2. It serves as the automatic fallback connector when no explicit edge transport is configured.
+
+Although the current implementation is deliberately minimal, it provides the foundation for reliable local connector semantics and keeps the stage communication model uniform across the system.
