Teknium c49fa88b80 refactor(skills): shipped-set slim — 15 to optional, github 6-way merge, pdf absorbs OCR, channel-gated teams pipeline (index −26%) (#98539)
* refactor(skills): shipped-set slim — 15 skills to optional, github six-way merge, pdf absorbs OCR+nano-pdf, channel-gated teams pipeline

Maintainer-directed shipped-skills curation (skills index 1,900 -> ~1,400
tok/call on desktop; every session pays the index, so this is a per-call
diet on all installs):

- optional-skills moves (installable via skills hub, history preserved):
  creative comfyui/ascii-art/excalidraw/pretext/sketch/touchdesigner-mcp;
  ALL of mlops (huggingface-hub, llama-cpp, serving-llms-vllm,
  weights-and-biases, evaluating-llms-harness — subcategory structure
  kept); research-paper-writing (55 supporting files, 17.3K-tok load);
  openhue; blogwatcher (first taught the cronjob monitor-field watch
  pattern + web_extract instead of pre-cron manual workflows)
- DELETED session-librarian (Aug-12 'inspired by Perplexity Computer'
  port, never maintainer-intended; session_search covers discovery)
- github: six skills (auth, issues, pr-workflow, issue-to-pr,
  code-review, repo-management) merged into ONE software-development/
  github skill — routing body + complete per-workflow references;
  benbarclay authorship credited; codebase-inspection rides along;
  discipline pins from test_github_issue_to_pr_skill.py preserved
  against the reference body in the new test_github_skill.py
- pdf absorbs ocr-and-documents + nano-pdf as references/ + scripts
  (extract_pymupdf, extract_marker converted to the argparse house
  standard its contract test enforces)
- NEW session_platforms frontmatter gate (metadata.hermes): hides a
  skill from the index on gateway channels it is not for; fail-open on
  unknown platform; teams-meeting-pipeline gated to [teams, cron]
- blocked-page-recovery: research -> new web category; trigger-first
  description ('Use when a fetch fails: 403/429, paywall, WAF, bot
  wall.') so the model actually reaches for it on blocked fetches
- docs regenerated via generate-skill-docs.py (195 pages); related_skills
  swept repo-wide; tests: 1672 passed (2 openclaw failures pre-existing
  on clean main, Windows-local)

* chore: ignore .skills_prompt_snapshot.json (local index cache, accidentally committed)

# Server Deployment Guide
Production deployment of llama.cpp server with OpenAI-compatible API.
## Direct from Hugging Face Hub
Prefer the model repo's local-app page first:
```text
https://huggingface.co/<repo>?local-app=llama.cpp
```
If the page shows an exact snippet, copy it. If not, use one of these forms:
```bash
# Choose a quant label directly from the Hub repo
llama-server -hf bartowski/Llama-3.2-3B-Instruct-GGUF:Q8_0
```
```bash
# Pin an exact GGUF file from the repo tree
llama-server \
--hf-repo microsoft/Phi-3-mini-4k-instruct-gguf \
--hf-file Phi-3-mini-4k-instruct-q4.gguf \
-c 4096
```
Use the file-specific form when the repo has custom naming or when you already extracted the exact filename from the tree API.
## Server Modes
### llama-server
```bash
# Basic server
./llama-server \
-m models/llama-2-7b-chat.Q4_K_M.gguf \
--host 0.0.0.0 \
--port 8080 \
-c 4096 # Context size
# With GPU acceleration
./llama-server \
-m models/llama-2-70b.Q4_K_M.gguf \
-ngl 40 # Offload 40 layers to GPU
```
## OpenAI-Compatible API
### Chat completions
```bash
curl http://localhost:8080/v1/chat/completions \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"model": "llama-2",
"messages": [
{"role": "system", "content": "You are helpful"},
{"role": "user", "content": "Hello"}
],
"temperature": 0.7,
"max_tokens": 100
}'
```
### Streaming
```bash
curl http://localhost:8080/v1/chat/completions \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"model": "llama-2",
"messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "Count to 10"}],
"stream": true
}'
```
## Docker Deployment
**Dockerfile**:
```dockerfile
FROM ubuntu:22.04
RUN apt-get update && apt-get install -y git build-essential
RUN git clone https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp
WORKDIR /llama.cpp
RUN make LLAMA_CUDA=1
COPY models/ /models/
EXPOSE 8080
CMD ["./llama-server", "-m", "/models/model.gguf", "--host", "0.0.0.0", "--port", "8080"]
```
**Run**:
```bash
docker run --gpus all -p 8080:8080 llama-cpp:latest
```
## Monitoring
```bash
# Server metrics endpoint
curl http://localhost:8080/metrics
# Health check
curl http://localhost:8080/health
```
**Metrics**:
- requests_total
- tokens_generated
- prompt_tokens
- completion_tokens
- kv_cache_tokens
## Load Balancing
**NGINX**:
```nginx
upstream llama_cpp {
server llama1:8080;
server llama2:8080;
}
server {
location / {
proxy_pass http://llama_cpp;
proxy_read_timeout 300s;
}
}
```
## Performance Tuning
**Parallel requests**:
```bash
./llama-server \
-m model.gguf \
-np 4 # 4 parallel slots
```
**Continuous batching**:
```bash
./llama-server \
-m model.gguf \
--cont-batching # Enable continuous batching
```
**Context caching**:
```bash
./llama-server \
-m model.gguf \
--cache-prompt # Cache processed prompts
```
