vllm-deploylisted

# vllm-deploy Bring a vLLM stack up without stepping on the GPU or a broken config. **Preflight is read-only; the deploy is shared-state and gated on explicit approval.** ## Preflight — do all of these first (read-only) 1. **GPU free?** `ssh dgx-llm-1 '~/bin/gpu-mode-swap.sh status --json'`. If a compute app holds the GPU, or the other vLLM is already up, STOP — taking the GPU is a switch, which is gated (use the `gpu-mode` skill and get approval). 2. **Config valid?** Run the `compose-check` skill on the stack (`docker compose config -q` → PASS / ENV-MISSING / FAIL). 3. **Env ready?** If ENV-MISSING, `cp .env.example .env` and fill (`HF_TOKEN`) before deploying. ## Deploy — SHARED-STATE, explicit approval each time Only after preflight is clean and the operator says go. The stack owns the GPU; treat the DGX as production. - Prefer `gpu-mode-swap.sh <code|research>` — it sequences the swap (brings the right stack up and the other down) rather than a bare `up`. - Or, run from the stack dir in place (repo-root `.env` convention): `docker compose up -d`. - **Never** `down -v`, prune volumes, or restart a live stack without separate, explicit approval. ## Verify `ssh dgx-llm-1 'curl -fsS http://127.0.0.1:<port>/health'` and confirm the mode matches (`gpu-mode` check). Report the resulting mode + health.
