-# The chat endpoint, and the only one behind the ingress.

-# Single-model rather than router mode. Router mode served chat and embeddings
-# from one port, but two things made that wrong here:
-#
-#   1. Its /health answers 200 as soon as the router process listens, while the
-#      models are still downloading behind it. Kubernetes marked the pod Ready
-#      within seconds of start, so traffic arrived at a server that could not
-#      answer. In single-model mode /health returns 503 until the model is
-#      resident, which is what the probes below actually need.
-#   2. Every model on the port is selectable in the built-in WebUI, including
-#      the embedding model. Asking an embedding model to chat returns fluent
-#      nonsense ("capital capital capital ...") rather than an error, and
-#      `--embeddings` does not prevent it. There is no flag to hide a model
-#      from the list — `--tags` is informational and `--ui-config` only sets UI
-#      preferences — so the only way to keep it out of the picker is to keep it
-#      off this endpoint. It runs in embed.yaml instead.

-# Advertises the on-board Intel iGPU as the schedulable resource
-# `gpu.intel.com/i915`, so pods can request it without a /dev/dri hostPath or
-# any privilege escalation — the plugin hands the render node to the container
-# through the kubelet device-plugin API. The same resource covers both GPU
-# compute (LLM inference) and QuickSync video transcoding; it is not
-# compute-specific.
-#
-# All three nodes are MS-01 with an i9-12900H (Alder Lake-P, PCI 8086:46a6,
-# Iris Xe 96 EU) at 0000:00:02.0. Talos carries the driver in the `i915` system
-# extension, already present in the schematic, so no machineconfig change is
-# needed.
-#
-# Vendored from upstream rather than installed via the
-# `intel-device-plugins-gpu` Helm chart: that chart renders a `GpuDevicePlugin`
-# custom resource, which only works alongside the Intel Device Plugin Operator
-# and its CRDs, cert-manager webhook and controller. With one device type on
-# three identical nodes, the operator manages nothing this DaemonSet does not.
-#
-# Source: intel/intel-device-plugins-for-kubernetes, v0.36.0,
-# deployments/gpu_plugin/base/intel-gpu-plugin.yaml
-# Upgrading means re-syncing this file against that path at the new tag and
-# bumping the image tag below.
-#
-# Namespace is kube-system because the plugin mounts hostPaths (/dev/dri,
-# /sys/class/drm, the kubelet device-plugin socket and the CDI path). The
-# cluster enforces PodSecurity `baseline`, which forbids hostPath volumes, and
-# kube-system is the only namespace in the API server's exemption list.
-#
-# Node Feature Discovery is not deployed, so upstream's `nfd_labeled_nodes`
-# overlay is omitted along with its `intel.feature.node.kubernetes.io/gpu`
-# nodeSelector. Every node carries the same iGPU, leaving nothing to discover;
-# the plugin exits cleanly on a node without /dev/dri.

-#
-# This is a comparison tool, not a CI gate. Point it at any OpenAI-compatible
-# endpoint and model and it prints the same scored tasks, so two models can be
-# judged side by side on the work we would give them rather than on a public
-# leaderboard.
-#
-# The tasks are drawn from real workloads:
-#   A  PR review triage — the actual rubric from ci/agents/pr-review/, run over
-#      real merged PR diffs whose correct classification is known. Includes a
-#      prompt-injection case, since the triage reads attacker-controlled input
-#      and the pipeline trusts it to hold.
-#   B  Strict JSON output, five identical runs — Home Assistant intents need
-#      parseable output every time, not usually.
-#   C  German document classification — the Paperless workload.
-#   D  German summarization under a hard length constraint.
-#
-# Usage:
-#   scripts/ai-eval.sh                          # the cluster's local model
-#   scripts/ai-eval.sh -m qwen3.6-35b-a3b

-#
-# To compare two models on OUR llama-server, -m is not enough: a single-model
-# server ignores the request's `model` field entirely and answers to any name.
-# Change --hf-repo in kubernetes/apps/llama-server/deployment.yaml, let it roll
-# out, then re-run. -m matters for routing servers and for hosted APIs.
