+# Gemma 4 Omni: Any-to-Any Acceptance & Test Plan
+
+## Acceptance Criteria
+1. **Structural Equivalence**: The MLX Swift models must define the exact architectural layers present in the `mlx-community/gemma-4-e4b-it-4bit` release (Subsample Convolutions, Clipped Linears, Full Conformer Blocks).
+2. **Key Resolution**: The `sanitize(weights:)` pass must operate successfully without arbitrary string-manipulation hacks by utilizing matching `@ModuleInfo` binding names natively.
+3. **Multimodal Stability**: A graph containing pure `<|audio|>` payloads must not collapse. Audio values must properly shape-match text inputs (`2560` embedding dimension) when dynamically generated during sequence merging.
+
+## Test Plan
+This is fully automated within `run_harness.sh` using the following scenarios:
+
+- **Scenario 1: Build & Integrity Check**
+    - `swift build -c release`
+    - Ensures that Swift 6 compiler passes without `Sendable`, Actor Isolation, or invalid `MLX/MLXFast` module conflicts.
+- **Scenario 2: Native Routing Analysis**
+    - The `.agents/harness/audio-omni-gemma4/run_harness.sh` injects a simulated integration payload into explicitly triggering `SwiftLMTests.testGemma4Audio`.
+    - Captures STDOUT to verify `MLX.zeros(1, 80, SeqLen)` appropriately generates without blowing up the computation graph.
+- **Scenario 3: Zero-Shot Any-to-Any Parsing**
+    - The `run_harness.sh` generates an Omni JSON payload imitating standard `SwiftBuddy` chat structures where `<|audio|>` tokens are synthetically appended.
+    - Validates that `UserInput.Audio` parsing cascades faithfully into `LMInput.ProcessedAudio`, resolving earlier issues where SwiftLM lacked the fundamental `[Audio]` property class.

+# Gemma 4 Omni (USM) Audio Harness
+
+This harness tracks the TDD lifecycle for porting Google's Universal Speech Model (USM) architecture natively to Apple Silicon via MLX Swift.
+
+## Phase 1: MLX Swift Conformer Architecture
+- [ ] Implement `Gemma4AudioConfiguration` with `subsampling_conv_channels`, `attention_chunk_size`
+- [ ] Implement `SubsampleConvProjection` with dual GLU/Conv scaling.
+- [ ] Implement `ConformerConvModule` mapped as `lconv1d` with `linear_start` and `linear_end`.
+- [ ] Implement `MacaronFFN` layers (`feed_forward1`, `feed_forward2`) with `ffw_layer_1` and `ffw_layer_2` (ClippedLinears/Linears).
+- [ ] Implement `ConformerBlock` tracking exact norm structures (`norm_out`, `norm_pre_attn`, `norm_post_attn`).
+- [ ] Implement `Gemma4AudioModel` encapsulating `subsample_conv_projection` and `output_proj`.

+- [ ] Extend `prepareInputsForMultimodal()` to ingest `scaledAudioFeatures` via `maskedScatter()`.
+
+## Phase 4: E2E Verification
+- [ ] Load `mlx-community/gemma-4-e4b-it-8bit` using Omni Mode in test server.
+- [ ] End-to-end verification via Swift Buddy Omni Audio suite payload.

+# Audio Model — Acceptance Criteria
+
+Each feature below defines the exact input→output contract. A test passes **only** if the output matches the expectation precisely.
+
+---
+
+## Phase 1 — Audio Input Pipeline
+
+### Feature 1: `--audio` CLI flag accepted
+- **Input**: Launch SwiftLM with `--audio` flag

+
+### Feature 6: Long audio chunking
+- **Input**: 90 seconds of audio
+- **Expected**: Audio is split into 3 x 30-second chunks, each producing `[80, 3000]` mel spectrograms

+- **Expected**: `text` field contains words matching the spoken content (fuzzy match acceptable)
+- **FAIL if**: Completely wrong transcription or empty text
+- **Fixture**: `fixtures/quick_brown_fox.wav`
+
+---
+
+## Phase 3 — Multimodal Audio Fusion
+
+### Feature 13: Gemma 4 audio_config parsed

+
+### Feature 16: Trimodal request (text + vision + audio)
+- **Input**: POST with text prompt + base64 image + base64 WAV audio
+- **Expected**: All three modalities are parsed, encoded, and fused without crash; model produces output

+# Harness Run Log: Audio Pre-flight
+Date: 2026-04-10
+Execution Context: Agent Loop Protocol (Phase 1 Baseline)
+
+## Summary
+The TDD harness for Audio multimodal support was effectively operationalized. 
+
+### Completed Capabilities
+- **Feature 1**: Confirmed the ingestion of the `--audio` CLI switch in `SwiftLM`'s `Server.swift` without application crashes.
+- **Feature 2**: Engineered the base64 WAV extraction bridge within `OpenAIPayloads.swift`, mapping valid parts to an array of internal `Data` references.
+- **Feature 3**: Tested and confirmed native extraction of PCM header properties (Sample rate, channels, int-format) executing exclusively with `AVFoundation.AVAudioFile`.
+
+### Test Validation
+```
+Test Suite 'AudioExtractionTests' passed at 2026-04-10 00:43:24.117.
+	 Executed 2 tests, with 0 failures (0 unexpected) in 0.005 (0.005) seconds
+Test Suite 'AudioTests' passed at 2026-04-10 00:44:48.700.
+	 Executed 1 test, with 0 failures (0 unexpected) in 0.162 (0.163) seconds
+```
+
+### Next Steps 
+The baseline extraction fixtures provide robust testing surfaces. Implement Feature 4 (Mel Spectrogram transformation matrix generation).

+# Chat Tool Integration — Acceptance Criteria
+
+## Feature 1: ChatMessage supports tool role
+- **Action**: Add `.tool` to `ChatMessage.Role` enum in `MLXInferenceCore/ChatMessage.swift`.
+- **Expected**: Instantiating `ChatMessage(role: .tool, content: "result")` works and properly maps to Hugging Face Jinja template roles.
+- **Test**: `testFeature1_ChatMessageToolRole` verifies role string conversion.
+
+## Feature 2: System Prompt Tool Schema Injection
+- **Action**: Create a method that converts the JSON dictionary schemas from `MemoryPalaceTools.schemas` into a readable YAML/JSON string block.
+- **Expected**: `ChatViewModel` dynamically appends this block to the persona's `ChatMessage.system` block at initialization.
+- **Test**: `testFeature2_ToolSchemaInjection` verifies that the `system` message contains `"mempalace_search"`.
+
+## Feature 3: LLM Output Tool Parsing 
+- **Action**: Add `extractToolCall(from:)` to `ExtractionService`.
+- **Expected**: Given an LLM output containing `<tool_call>{"name": "mempalace_search", "parameters": {"wing": "test", "query": "auth"}}</tool_call>`, it returns a structured Swift object containing the name and parameters dictionary.
+- **Test**: `testFeature3_ToolCallExtraction` verifies valid and hallucinated JSON edge cases inside `<tool_call>` tags.
+
+## Feature 4: ChatViewModel Autonomous Tool Execution Loop
+- **Action**: Modify `ChatViewModel.send()`. If `extractToolCall` detects a tool call midway through generation, the UI hides the `<tool_call>` text.
+- **Expected**: `ChatViewModel` cleanly halts user-facing generation, natively executes `MemoryPalaceTools.handleToolCall`, appends the tool response as `ChatMessage(role: .tool, content: result)`, and autonomously triggers `generate()` again to let the LLM see the tool result and answer the user.
+- **Test**: `testFeature4_ToolExecutionLoopAsync` mocks an inference stream emitting a tool call and verifies the engine triggers the sequence autonomously.

+# Run Log - 2026-04-10
+
+- Target: GraphPalace Harness
+- Status: **SUCCESS**
+- Exit Code: `0`
+
+## Completion Matrix
+- ✅ Design `GraphPalaceService` singleton to handle the secondary graph topology memory layer.
+- ✅ Ensure Round 1 (SQL Chunking in MemPalace) correctly triggers Round 2 (NetworkX KnowledgeGraphTriple synthesis) downstream.
+- ✅ Write system prompt extraction strategy leveraging MLX that maps `subject`, `predicate`, and `object`.
+- ✅ Establish multimodal bridging so Audio transcriptions and Image OCR chunks also get routed to the edge topology generator.
+
+## Notes
+- MLX extraction successfully integrated using `generate(messages:)` stream processing.
+- `RegistryService` directly triggers `SYNAPTIC SYNTHESIS` extraction loop post-download.
+- Validated via automated `swift test --filter GraphPalaceTests`.
+- ALM and VLM end-to-end benchmark regression completed smoothly.

+# VLM (Vision-Language Model) — Acceptance Criteria
+
+Each feature below defines the exact input→output contract. A test passes **only** if the output matches the expectation precisely.
+
+---
+
+### Feature 1: `--vision` flag loads VLM instead of LLM
+- **Input**: Launch SwiftLM with `--model mlx-community/Qwen2-VL-2B-Instruct-4bit --vision`
+- **Expected**: Server log contains `Loading VLM (vision-language model)`
+- **FAIL if**: Server loads as LLM or crashes on startup
+
+### Feature 2: Base64 data URI image extraction
+- **Input**: Message content part with `{"type": "image_url", "image_url": {"url": "data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgo..."}}`
+- **Expected**: `extractImages()` returns a non-empty `[UserInput.Image]` array with a valid `CIImage`
+- **FAIL if**: Returns empty array, crashes, or corrupts image data
+
+### Feature 3: HTTP URL image extraction
+- **Input**: Message content part with `{"type": "image_url", "image_url": {"url": "https://example.com/image.jpg"}}`
+- **Expected**: `extractImages()` returns a valid image downloaded from the URL
+- **FAIL if**: Returns empty array or fails silently
+
+### Feature 4: Reject request with no image when model requires one
+- **Input**: POST `/v1/chat/completions` with text-only content to a VLM server
+- **Expected**: Response contains appropriate error or processes as text-only (model-dependent)
+- **FAIL if**: Server crashes or returns HTTP 500
+
+### Feature 5: Text-only fallback
+- **Input**: POST text-only message to VLM server
+- **Expected**: Server processes the request using only the language model (no vision encoder invoked)
+- **FAIL if**: Server crashes or returns an image-required error for models that support text-only
+
+### Feature 6: Qwen2-VL end-to-end inference
+- **Input**: POST with a 256×256 test image (cat from Wikimedia) and prompt "What animal is in this image?"
+- **Expected**: Response JSON has `choices[0].message.content` containing a non-empty string
+- **FAIL if**: Response is an error, empty content, or HTTP timeout
+- **Fixture**: `fixtures/vlm_test_image.jpg` (256×256 Wikimedia cat image)
+
+### Feature 7: Image too small for ViT patch size
+- **Input**: POST with a 1×1 pixel image to Qwen2-VL
+- **Expected**: Response is a graceful JSON error: `imageProcessingFailure` with descriptive message
+- **FAIL if**: Server crashes, returns HTTP 500, or hangs
+
+### Feature 8: Multiple images in single message
+- **Input**: POST with two `image_url` parts in the same message
+- **Expected**: `extractImages()` returns an array with 2 images
+- **FAIL if**: Only first image is extracted, or second is silently dropped
+
+### Feature 9: VLM type registry completeness
+- **Input**: Enumerate all keys in `VLMTypeRegistry.shared`
+- **Expected**: Registry contains all 14 model types: `paligemma`, `qwen2_vl`, `qwen2_5_vl`, `qwen3_vl`, `qwen3_5`, `qwen3_5_moe`, `idefics3`, `gemma3`, `smolvlm`, `fastvlm`, `llava_qwen2`, `pixtral`, `mistral3`, `lfm2_vl`, `lfm2-vl`, `glm_ocr`
+- **FAIL if**: Any registered type is missing
+
+### Feature 10: VLM processor type registry completeness
+- **Input**: Enumerate all keys in `VLMProcessorTypeRegistry.shared`
+- **Expected**: Registry contains matching processor for each model type
+- **FAIL if**: A model type has no corresponding processor
+
+### Feature 11: Unsupported model_type returns clear error
+- **Input**: Attempt to load a model with `model_type: "nonexistent_model"`
+- **Expected**: Throws `ModelFactoryError.unsupportedModelType("nonexistent_model")`
+- **FAIL if**: Crashes, returns nil silently, or throws a different error type
+
+### Feature 12: Gemma 3 VLM end-to-end
+- **Input**: POST with 256×256 test image to Gemma 3 VLM server
+- **Expected**: Response JSON has `choices[0].message.content` containing a non-empty string
+- **FAIL if**: Model fails to load, crashes during inference, or returns empty content
+- **NOTE**: Requires `mlx-community/gemma-3-4b-it-qat-4bit` to be cached locally

+description: Autonomous Web Design Workflow & Harness for Agentic Product Marketing
+---
+// turbo-all
+
+# Autonomous Web Design Harness
+
+> **CRITICAL EXECUTION RULE**: Do NOT immediately begin scaffolding UI elements, generating glassmorphic tokens, or assuming dark-mode when tasked with building a web page. You MUST follow these preliminary research and alignment phases strictly.
+
+When tasked with designing a web page or marketing asset for the SwiftLM ecosystem (or any future project), execute the following workflow sequentially.
+
+## Phase 1: Social Listening & User Empathy
+Before designing, you must understand what actual users care about.
+- **Action**: Use the `search_web` tool to search Reddit, Twitter/X, and relevant forums. For example: `site:reddit.com "local llm" "mlx" "pain points"`
+- **Goal**: Identify 2-3 massive user frustrations (e.g., "Ollama is too slow for agents", "VLM context overflow ruins memory").
+- **Output**: Mentally synthesize a target user persona and their primary pain point to drive the entire design narrative.
+
+## Phase 2: Establish the Selling Points
+Translate the Phase 1 pain points into product strengths.
+- **Action**: Draft 3-5 high-impact, heavily technical but readable "Selling Points". 
+- **Rule**: Do not use generic marketingspeak (e.g., "Fast and simple"). Use concrete technical assertions (e.g., "1000 tok/s M3 Max prefill", "No GIL overhead", "Zero-copy NVMe streaming").
+- **Goal**: These selling points will directly dictate the layout of the site's "Feature Grid" or "Hero Subtext".
+
+## Phase 3: Visual Inspiration & Benchmarking
+Do not design in a vacuum.
+- **Action**: Reflect on (or search for) industry-leading developer tools in the AI space (e.g., Vercel, Linear, Modal, HuggingFace).
+- **Goal**: Establish a baseline for typography (e.g., Inter, Geist), spacing (large padding, sparse layouts), and structural hierarchy. 
+
+## Phase 4: Aesthetic Constraints & Generation
+Now you may begin scaffolding the site.
+- **Rule 1 (The Light Default)**: Do NOT aggressively default to dark colors or dark mode. Unless the user explicitly requests dark mode, default to a clean, highly accessible, modern light mode aesthetic.
+- **Rule 2 (Layout Hierarchy)**:
+   1. Dynamic Hero Section (Strong Tagline + Call to Action).
+   2. Social Proof / Testimonial Billboard (Actual quotes from Phase 1).
+   3. The Feature Grid (The selling points from Phase 2).
+   4. Ecosystem Linkages (How it ties into the broader architecture).
+- **Action**: Execute code generation using standard TailwindCSS tokens or explicit Vanila CSS constraints.

+`SwiftLM` dynamically maps Apple MLX primitives to standard HuggingFace architectures, enabling complete support for the latest frontier open-weights models across modalities (Text, Vision, Audio).
+
+### Text (LLMs)
+- **Gemma 4**: Fully supports both Dense (`gemma-4-e4b`) and Sparse Mixture of Experts (MoE) architectures (`gemma-4-26b`, `gemma-4-31b`).
+- **Qwen 2.5 & 3**: Robust support for sliding window attention limits and custom RoPE scaling.
+- **Mistral & Mixtral**: Out-of-the-box structural mappings.
+- **Phi-3 & Phi-3.5**: Full 128k context parsing via Swift chunked-prefill.
+
+### Vision (VLMs)
+*Run with `--vision` flag.*
+- **Qwen2-VL & Qwen3-VL**: Real-time positional bounding and Metal image scaling.
+- **PaliGemma / LFM2-VL / Pixtral**: Base64 spatial decomposition.
+
+### Audio (ALMs)
+*Run with `--audio` flag.*
+- **Qwen2-Audio (7B-Instruct)**: Deep multi-modal spectrogram processing via Swift audio interleaving.
+- **Gemma-4 Audio Pipelines**: Ready for Audio-in/Text-out variants mapping `.audio_tower` extraction parameters natively off NVMe.

+### Vision-Language Models (VLM)
+To run a vision model (e.g., `mlx-community/Qwen2-VL-2B-Instruct-4bit`), launch SwiftLM with the `--vision` flag:
+```bash
+./.build/release/SwiftLM --model mlx-community/Qwen2-VL-2B-Instruct-4bit --vision
+```
+
+You can then pass standard OpenAI base64 encoded images directly. SwiftLM handles hardware spatial-mapping natively via Metal:
+```bash
+curl http://localhost:5413/v1/chat/completions \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{

+# Audio Model Support Roadmap
+
+SwiftLM currently has **zero audio support**. There is no audio input parsing, no speech encoder, no TTS output, and no `--audio` CLI flag.
+
+This document outlines the implementation plan for adding audio capabilities alongside the existing LLM and VLM pipelines.
+
+---
+
+## Current State
+
+| Modality | SwiftLM | `mlx-swift-lm` (upstream) | Ecosystem |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| **Text (LLM)** | ✅ Full | ✅ Full | Mature |
+| **Vision (VLM)** | ✅ 14 architectures | ✅ 14 architectures | Mature |
+| **Audio (ALM)** | ❌ None | ❌ None | Emerging — `mlx-audio-swift` exists as a separate SPM package |
+
+> [!NOTE]
+> The upstream Apple `ml-explore/mlx-swift-lm` library does **not** have an `MLXALM` module.
+> Audio on MLX Swift is currently handled by the community `Blaizzy/mlx-audio-swift` package,
+> which is a **separate** SPM dependency — not part of the LM pipeline.
+
+---
+
+## Why Audio Matters
+
+Several next-generation models ship with native audio encoders embedded in their `config.json`:
+
+| Model | `audio_config.model_type` | Audio Encoder | Notes |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| **Gemma 4** | `gemma4_audio` | 12-layer conformer, 1024-dim | Built-in audio tower alongside vision |
+| **Qwen3-Omni** | `qwen3_omni_audio` | Whisper-style encoder | Unified text/vision/audio/speech |
+| **Qwen3-ASR** | `whisper` | Whisper encoder | Speech-to-text specialist |
+
+These models natively expect audio tokens alongside text and image tokens. Without audio support, SwiftLM silently drops the audio modality and falls back to text-only — losing a core capability.
+
+---
+
+## Implementation Plan
+
+### Phase 1 — Audio Input Pipeline (Foundation)
+
+**Goal**: Accept audio data via the OpenAI-compatible API and convert it to mel spectrograms.
+
+| Component | Description | Estimated Effort |
+|---|---|---|
+| **CLI flag** | Add `--audio` flag (or auto-detect from `config.json` `audio_config`) | 1 day |
+| **API endpoint** | Extend `/v1/chat/completions` to accept `input_audio` content parts (base64 WAV/PCM) | 1-2 days |
+| **Mel spectrogram** | Implement FFT → mel filterbank conversion in Swift (or integrate `Accelerate.framework` vDSP) | 2-3 days |
+| **Audio tokenizer** | Convert mel spectrograms into audio token embeddings via the model's audio encoder | 2-3 days |
+
+### Phase 2 — Speech-to-Text (STT) Models
+
+**Goal**: Run Whisper-class ASR models natively in SwiftLM.
+
+| Model Family | `model_type` | Notes | Est. Effort |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| **Whisper** | `whisper` | Most popular ASR model. Reference exists in `mlx-audio-swift`. | ~3-4 days |
+| **Qwen3-ASR** | `qwen3_asr` | Alibaba's speech recognition. | ~2-3 days |
+
+### Phase 3 — Multimodal Audio Integration
+
+**Goal**: Enable models that fuse text + vision + audio (like Gemma 4's full multimodal config).
+
+| Model Family | Audio Tower | Notes | Est. Effort |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| **Gemma 4** | `gemma4_audio` (conformer) | Already have text LLM. Need audio encoder + fusion with existing vision projector. | ~4-5 days |
+| **Qwen3-Omni** | Whisper-based | Full omni-modal: text + vision + audio + speech output. | ~5-7 days |
+
+### Phase 4 — Text-to-Speech (TTS) Output
+
+**Goal**: Generate speech audio from model output tokens.
+
+| Component | Description | Estimated Effort |
+|---|---|---|
+| **Audio decoding** | Convert output audio tokens → waveform via vocoder (e.g., CosyVoice, Kokoro) | 3-5 days |
+| **Streaming output** | Stream PCM/WAV audio chunks over the HTTP API as they are generated | 2-3 days |
+| **API endpoint** | Add `/v1/audio/speech` endpoint (OpenAI TTS compatibility) | 1-2 days |
+
+---

+
+## Shared Infrastructure Required
+
+| Component | Status | Notes |
+|---|---|---|
+| Base64 decoding pipeline | ✅ Exists | Already handles images; extend for `audio/wav` MIME type |
+| `CIImage` → MLXArray | ✅ Exists | Vision-specific; audio needs mel → MLXArray equivalent |
+| OpenAI content parts parser | ✅ Exists | Supports `text` and `image_url`; needs `input_audio` support |
+| Metal GPU acceleration | ✅ Exists | FFT/mel can use `Accelerate.framework` vDSP on CPU, encoder runs on Metal |
+| `--vision` flag pattern | ✅ Exists | Same pattern for `--audio` or unified `--multimodal` |
+
+---
+
+## Integration Strategy
+
+> [!IMPORTANT]
+> **Option A: Build native** — Implement audio processing directly in SwiftLM using `Accelerate.framework` for FFT/mel and our own MLX encoder modules.
+>
+> **Option B: Integrate `mlx-audio-swift`** — Add `Blaizzy/mlx-audio-swift` as an SPM dependency for proven STT/TTS implementations, then wire into SwiftLM's server pipeline.
+>
+> **Recommendation**: Start with **Option A** for the audio input pipeline (mel spectrogram is straightforward with vDSP), then evaluate **Option B** for TTS output where vocoder complexity is high.
+
+---
+
+## Priority vs. VLM Roadmap
+
+Audio support is **lower priority** than completing the VLM roadmap (Phase 1 VLM ports: Gemma 4 vision, Llama 4, Mistral 4, etc.). However, since Gemma 4 natively bundles both `vision_config` and `audio_config`, the Gemma 4 VLM port is the natural entry point for audio — both modalities can be developed together.
+
+### Suggested Sequencing
+1. ✅ Complete VLM Phase 1 (Gemma 4 vision, Llama 4, Mistral 4)
+2. 🔜 Audio Phase 1 (mel spectrogram pipeline + API input support)
+3. 🔜 Audio Phase 2 (Whisper STT)
+4. 🔜 Audio Phase 3 (Gemma 4 multimodal fusion — vision + audio)
+5. 🔮 Audio Phase 4 (TTS output)

+# Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) SSD Streaming Architecture
+
+The `SwiftLM` engine features an explicit out-of-core Expert Streaming architecture, designed to execute massive routing networks (like `Qwen3.5-122B-A10B`) using fractions of the memory footprint by streaming projection matrices directly from the NVMe SSD over the PCIe bus on-demand.
+
+## 1. The GPU Command Buffer Cycle Limit
+
+Apple Silicon's UMA architecture relies on the GPU executing command buffers formatted by the CPU. In dense models, `SwiftLM` aggressively queues execution graphs. However, MoE models inherently trigger severe branch divergence due to token-level routing probabilities.
+
+If an MoE graph was instantiated without breaking points, an extreme `IOAccelerator` timeout would occur (the 5-second Watchdog limit). To stabilize out-of-core streaming, `SwiftLM` explicitly blocks the CPU and drains the GPU command loop back to 0 at the generation phase utilizing:
+
+```swift
+MLX.eval(expertOutput)
+Stream.gpu.synchronize() // <-- GPU Release Lock
+```
+
+### The I/O Consequences
+While this protects the unified bounds, it natively prevents the main loop from fetching the *next* expert. If the CPU is waiting on `gpu.synchronize()`, standard POSIX `pread` operations block, degrading throughput.
+
+## 2. Predictive Asynchronous Prefetch Pipeline (PAPPS)
+
+To fully untether the SSD operations from the main loop's `Metal` synchronization locks, `SwiftLM` delegates I/O into a concurrent C++ 16-worker thread pool executing behind the `Swift` boundary.
+
+The router queue dispatches expert indexes to the `pappsPrefetch` allocator instantaneously, entirely bypassing the main loop. The workers execute asynchronous `mmap/pread()` payloads directly to memory, maintaining raw NVMe saturation while the main thread evaluates `GPU.synchronize()`.
+
+## 3. macOS Physical Operating Bounds
+
+### UMA File Cache Thrashing
+When testing or deploying MoE streaming, the system is fundamentally locked within the macOS **Unified Memory Swap Boundary**. The `Qwen3.5-122B` safetensors files total ~65GB. 
+
+1. **The Hard Payload**: If the `Baseline GPU alloc` from background apps (Electron, WindowServer) occupies >12GB on a 64GB machine, loading the MoE streams guarantees a Swap overlap.
+2. **Page Backing**: macOS transparently maps `safetensors` reads into the "Inactive" physical memory pool. Sustained generation will expand the mapped file footprint until it consumes 100% of available RAM.
+3. **The Swap Thrashing Falloff**: Once the OS memory triggers PCIe Swap writes, the internal NVMe `pread()` latency spikes, collapsing Apple Silicon NVMe sustained bandwidth arrays and pulling generation TPS downwards.
+
+### Defining Maximum Throughput (64GB Frameworks)
+
+The absolute theoretical limit of MoE generation speed on Apple Silicon is purely dictated by SSD `Random Read` saturation arrays:
+
+*   **Target Payload**: `1.84 GB / token`
+*   **M1/M5 Random OS API Bandwidth**: `~3.1 GB / sec -> 3.5 GB / sec`
+*   **Resulting Pipeline Ceiling**: `1.69 tok/s -> 1.84 tok/s`
+
+No parallel decoding algorithms or I/O asynchronous loops can shatter the hardware PCIe data throughput bus limit. To maximize token generation:
+1. Ensure `Baseline GPU` memory usage is as low as physically possible (closing desktop frameworks).
+2. For testing isolation, utilize `sudo purge` to reset OS file caching boundaries.
+3. Hardcode cache memory (`maxEntries = 8192`) to prevent the backend from forcefully inflating into Swap memory pressure over long contextual inferences.

+
+## Porting Methodology
+
+Each VLM port follows the same pattern:
+
+1. **Read** the architectural specification or upstream reference for `<model_type>`
+2. **Create** `Libraries/MLXVLM/Models/<Model>.swift` with:
+   - Configuration structs (text, vision, top-level)
+   - Vision encoder modules (attention, MLP, embeddings, encoder)
+   - Multimodal projector
+   - Top-level model that wires vision → projector → language model
+3. **Create** a processor (`<Model>Processor`) for image preprocessing
+4. **Register** the `model_type` string in `VLMTypeRegistry.shared` and `VLMProcessorTypeRegistry.shared` inside `VLMModelFactory.swift`
+5. **Test** with `python3 test_vlm.py <model-id>`
+
+### Shared Infrastructure Already Built
+- ✅ Base64 image decoding in `Server.swift`
+- ✅ `CIImage` → MLXArray pixel conversion pipeline
+- ✅ OpenAI-compatible multi-part content parsing
+- ✅ `--vision` CLI flag and VLM/LLM factory routing
+- ✅ SSD streaming + PAPPS compatible with VLM weight loading
+
+---
+
+## Key Decision: Upstream Sync Strategy
+
+> [!IMPORTANT]
+> The upstream Apple `ml-explore/mlx-swift-lm` repo also adds new VLM architectures over time.
+> Before porting a model, always check if Apple has already added it upstream.
+> Use the `/mlx-upstream-sync` workflow to pull new models from upstream before writing custom ports.
+
+---
+
+## Test Validation
+
+All VLM ports must pass the automated `test_vlm.py` pipeline:
+```bash
+python3 test_vlm.py "mlx-community/<model-id>"
+```
+
+This downloads a 256×256 test image, spins up SwiftLM with `--vision`, fires a base64-encoded inference request, and validates the JSON response contains a valid `choices[0].message.content` field.
