Why and what changed

MOEModel emits a decode LM-head GEMM but omits the context projection that produces the first output token. Add exactly one BF16 context_logits_gemm with the same vocabulary shard as decode and seq_split=cp.

This corrects MoE-family prefill latency and resident weight accounting: weights are inventoried from context_ops, so omitting the head also overstates KV capacity. The affected families include Mixtral, GPT-OSS, Qwen2/Qwen3-MoE, MiniMax-M2, and Qwen3-VL-MoE. The SGLang large-EP MoE graph receives the same fix. The separate DeepSeek large-EP graphs remain outside this change.

This replaces #331 with an external-contributor PR from my fork. I no longer have write access to its upstream-hosted branch. The original commits are preserved, and upstream main at c9e7363b is merged with both parity-documentation sections retained.

Review map

  • Risk level: medium; the source change is one op, but model predictions and KV capacity change.
  • Start with python/aisimulate/src/aisimulate_core/sdk/models/moe.py, the new test_moe_logits_gemm.py, then the selective golden diff.
  • Public or serialized contract changed: no schema/API change. Prefill latency and resident weights increase; decode-only predictions remain unchanged.
  • Compatibility or rollback concern: goldens retain the original source commit in post_freeze_pins. Other golden-file changes, including fix: stop charging a pre-dispatch all-reduce for Kimi-K3 on sglang plain TP #436, must be preserved when integrating.

Evidence

Tested commit: 80e5465119c9381879d68fc27811bb843c46fd78.

  • Tests: 452 passed on the merged tree, covering both model regression modules and both engine parity suites:

  • Ruff 0.14.1 lint and format checks passed on all three changed Python files; git diff --check passed.
  • Local build used the documented uv sync --project python/aisimulate --extra dev --locked workflow. On this macOS toolchain the native library required rebuilding with CARGO_PROFILE_RELEASE_STRIP=none; this is a local compiler setting, with no repository configuration change.
  • Fast CI: pending on this new PR.
  • Full CI: pending; local results above are not hosted CI evidence. The old fix: charge the prefill logits GEMM for MoE-family models #331 Vizier dependency failures are fixed on main by fix(deps): constrain Google protos for Vizier compatibility #335.
  • CodeRabbit reviewed commit: the original fix: charge the prefill logits GEMM for MoE-family models #331 head 1a743096 was reviewed; this new head requires fresh review.
  • Codex reviewed commit: pending independent review.
  • Negative or boundary cases: all three backends, PP2, CP2, Qwen3-VL-MoE, and SGLang large EP. Tests require exactly one vocabulary projection per phase with matching shards and one-time context charging.
  • Expected-value derivation: Qwen3-235B-A22B and dense Qwen3-8B share hidden size 4096 and a 151936-token vocabulary. At TP2 their BF16 LM heads must both have shape (151936 // 2, 4096).
  • Golden diff: six per-op cases gain only context_logits_gemm at 0.0265–0.0275 ms. Twenty-one engine-step records refresh prefill-bearing values, with decode-only metrics unchanged. Both suites pass after merging current main without manually editing golden values.

Modeling or data provenance

No new measurements or timing tables. This reuses the existing BF16 GEMM tables. Refreshed values are Rust-engine regression baselines, not whole-model silicon validation; the existing README records the source commit and selective refresh procedure. LM-head resident weights are vocab_size // TP * hidden_size * 2 bytes per rank.

Tracking

MOEModel (Mixtral, gpt-oss, Qwen2/Qwen3-MoE, MiniMax-M2, and the
Qwen3-VL-MoE subclass) emitted generation_logits_gemm but no
context_logits_gemm. The op was lost when models.py was reformatted in
e70c992; every other family still emits it. Prefill therefore skipped
the first token's LM-head projection, and the resident-weight inventory,
which is derived from context_ops, left out the LM-head weights.

Emit context_logits_gemm with the same shape, bf16 mode, and CP
seq_split as the dense and DeepSeek families.

Summary

Risk: Medium. The three areas that need the most human attention are:

  1. The MoE prefill graph change and its effect on latency and resident-weight accounting.
  2. The CI runner and container HOME migration across many workflows, plus a new runner canary workflow. The existing summary omits this.
  3. The parity golden refresh, including git_head pin updates and overlap with #436 in the same golden file.

Behavior and contracts

  • MOEModel adds one BF16 context_logits_gemm to the prefill graph. The shard size is vocab_size // TP, and seq_split is cp_size.
  • The generation logits GEMM is unchanged. Decode-only predictions are reported as unchanged.
  • The affected models are Mixtral, GPT-OSS, Qwen2/Qwen3-MoE, MiniMax-M2, Qwen3-VL-MoE, and the SGLang large-EP MoE graph. DeepSeek large-EP graphs are excluded.
  • Because resident weights sum context_ops, the change also increases resident LM-head weight accounting. This lowers the KV capacity that the model reports.
  • No public API or schema change is reported.
  • CI workflow changes rename runner labels from prod-aisimulate-* to prod-aisim-* and change container HOME from /__w/aisimulate/aisimulate to /__w/aisim/aisim. They affect about 12 workflow files. Job commands, conditions, and matrix values are reported as unchanged.
  • A new runner-canary.yml workflow runs on manual dispatch and on pushes to pull-request/* that modify it. It checks runner identity, workspace, HOME, architecture, and writable storage.

Evidence supplied

  • Local results: 452 tests passed on the merged tree. The suites are test_moe_logits_gemm.py, test_large_ep_model_graphs.py, and the engine-step and compile-engine parity tests.
  • Ruff lint and format checks passed on three changed Python files. git diff --check passed.
  • Golden changes:
    • per_op.json: six per-op cases gain only context_logits_gemm. Their git_head pins are updated.
    • engine_step.json: 21 prefill-bearing records are refreshed. Decode-only metrics are reported as unchanged.
    • The Rust git_head pins are updated for the Minimax and Qwen entries.
  • The unit tests assert one prefill and one generation vocabulary head with matching shape, and a prefill scale of 1.0.

Evidence missing or stale

  • These are local results, not hosted CI results. Fast CI and Full CI are pending on the current head.
  • The earlier Full CI run on #331 failed with 18 Vizier import errors per architecture. The cause was googleapis-common-protos==1.75.4. #335 fixed this on main. No passing hosted run on the current head is shown.
  • A support-matrix job failed during runner initialization in the old run. No result on the current head is shown.
  • The CI runner and HOME changes have no hosted run in the supplied evidence. The runner canary workflow has no run result.
  • No current review findings or severity counts were supplied. Review status is unavailable.
  • #436 changes the same engine_step.json file for a separate Kimi-K3 accounting fix. The combined golden changes are not validated together.

Merge readiness

The local tests and lint checks support the code and golden changes. They do not establish merge readiness. Merge readiness requires:

  • Passing hosted CI on the current head, including the runner label and HOME changes.
  • Review by a maintainer. Bot or local results do not count as approval.
  • Validation of the combined golden changes if #436 lands first or second.

MoE context graphs now include a vocabulary-sharded logits GEMM. Model graph tests and performance goldens cover the added prefill operation. CI workflows also switch runner labels and home paths, and a runner canary workflow is added.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~25 minutes

Severity of issue fixed: Medium

Merge Risk: Minimal · up to 812ba

The change adds the missing prefill logits projection for MoE-family models, which corrects prefill latency and resident-weight estimates. It also moves CI jobs to the new runner labels. No concrete defect is established. Hosted CI should confirm that the new runner pools accept this repository's jobs before merging.

Explanation

The title states the behavioral change: the MoE-family prefill logits GEMM is now charged. It matches the main change in moe.py, the golden refreshes, and the new tests. It uses a conventional fix: prefix and is specific, so it meets the title requirement to state the behavioral change precisely.

Full details: Description check

Explanation

The description follows the repository template. It covers why and what changed, a review map with risk level and start-with files, a contract statement, and evidence with the tested commit, test command, and golden diff summary. Modeling provenance is filled in. Several template fields are partly open: the Feature Support Matrix line is not answered, the Codex reviewed commit is still pending, and the Fast CI and Full CI results are pending. These gaps are minor for a medium-risk PR.

Full details: Linked Issues check

Explanation

Issue #508 requires one BF16, vocabulary-sharded context_logits_gemm per MoE context graph, with decode-matching shard dimensions and seq_split=cp. The whole-PR summary (merge base c9e7363 to head 812ba0c) shows MOEModel in moe.py adding exactly one context GEMM with vocab_size // tp_size, hidden size, BF16 quantization, and seq_split=cp_size. The generation GEMM is unchanged. test_moe_logits_gemm.py covers the three backends, PP2, CP2, Qwen3-VL-MoE, and the SGLang large-EP MoE graph. test_large_ep_model_graphs.py keeps DeepSeek large-EP graphs out of scope. Golden refreshes cover the prefill-bearing records. The changes since the previous reviewed head (80e5465) are CI and workflow changes. They do not alter the #508 requirements. Remaining uncertainty: the file-level evidence is an AI-generated summary. I did not read the hunks directly. The verdict relies on that summary and the previous assessment.

Full details: Modeling And Data Evidence

Explanation

The PR supplies provenance, an explained golden diff, and an independent oracle for its model change, so the modeling and data evidence criterion is met. Evidence checked in the PR diff (refs/coderabbit/pre-merge-check/base..head): - Source change (python/aisimulate/src/aisimulate_core/sdk/models/moe.py): adds one context_logits_gemm to context_ops. It uses _vocab_size // tp_size, h, bfloat16, and seq_split=cp. The generation GEMM is unchanged. - Per-op golden (goldens/per_op.json): six cases each gain exactly one context_logits_gemm entry. The latencies are 0.0265–0.0275 ms, which matches the README range. No other per-op entries change in the hunks shown. - Provenance: post_freeze_pins git_head values move to fdd84a8e… for the affected cases. The README section documents the selective refresh procedure, the source commit, and the affected records. - Engine-step golden (goldens/engine_step.json, 126 changed lines): changes are limited to prefill-bearing metrics (agg_*, disagg_ttft/disagg_request, mixed_step, static_ctx, static_total). Decode-only values such as static_gen and disagg_tpot are unchanged in the hunks read. The README states the same and gives the expected 0.020–0.084 ms increase. - Independent oracle: test_moe_logits_gemm.py checks that Qwen3-235B-A22B (MoE) and Qwen3-8B (dense) produce identical LM-head ops in both phases. The expected shape (151936 // 2, 4096) is derived from the shared hidden size and vocabulary. Other cases check decode-shard parity across trtllm, vllm, and sglang, including PP, CP, VL, and large-EP. - Reproducibility: the PR gives the exact pytest command, the tested commit, and the lint results. The author states that the goldens were refreshed without manual value edits. Limits: the PR states that hosted CI is pending and that the local results are not hosted evidence. The README also says the refreshed values are regression baselines, not silicon validation. Neither point changes this criterion, which accepts an explained golden diff or an independent oracle.

Full details: Compatibility Boundaries

Explanation

Summary: The PR keeps the compatibility boundaries intact. It changes no public API, schema, version, binding, or packaging contract. The Dynamo coupling is limited to a CI runner label, which is not a product dependency. Evidence (PR #509, head refs/coderabbit/pre-merge-check/head): - Public surfaces and schemas: The source change is one context_logits_gemm op in python/aisimulate/src/aisimulate_core/sdk/models/moe.py. No .pyi, __init__.py, Rust source, or public-API test changed. The only Rust-adjacent changes are the parity goldens (goldens/engine_step.json, goldens/per_op.json). The README documents the refresh, and the diff keeps the post_freeze_pins source commit. - Versions and pins: Only git_head pins in the goldens changed. No pyproject.toml, Cargo.toml, or version field changed. - One-wheel plus one-crate artifact contract: scripts, python/aisimulate/tools, python/aisimulate/pyproject.toml, crates/core/Cargo.toml, and crates/tests/public-api are unchanged. In .github/workflows/ci.yml, the wheel jobs (application-wheel, application-test-wheel, stage-application-wheel) keep their single-wheel checks. The diff changes only runner labels and HOME values. - Documented defaults: No default values changed in code. The README addition matches the code and goldens. - Standalone from Dynamo, code level: A search of python/, crates/, and scripts/ found no Dynamo package imports or dependencies. The Dynamo mentions are comments, measurement-policy string labels, and historical provenance links that predate this PR. - Standalone from Dynamo, CI level (observation, not a failure): The PR adds dynamo-cpu-4gi-amd64 to .github/actionlint.yaml. The new .github/workflows/runner-canary.yml runs its shared job on that label. The job is gated to ai-dynamo/aisim. This makes CI use a Dynamo-named shared runner pool. It does not affect the product's packages, imports, or artifacts. The maintainers should confirm that this shared-pool use is intended. - Old labels: No prod-aisimulate runner label or /__w/aisimulate path remains in .github. Limitations: I did not build or run the wheels or the Rust crate. The verdict rests on diff and tree inspection.

Full details: Review Evidence

Explanation

The PR description meets the Review evidence criteria. - Commands and results: It gives the exact pytest command and the result (452 passed). It also reports Ruff lint and format results for the three changed Python files and a git diff --check pass. - Boundary validation: It lists the cases covered: all three backends, PP2, CP2, Qwen3-VL-MoE, and SGLang large EP. It states the test assertion: exactly one vocabulary projection per phase, with matching shards and one-time context charging. It also gives an expected-value derivation (Qwen3-235B-A22B and Qwen3-8B, TP2, shape (151936 // 2, 4096)). This is appropriate for a medium-risk change to prefill latency and KV capacity. - Evidence types separated: - Local results are labeled as local: "local results above are not hosted CI evidence". - Hosted CI is marked pending: "Fast CI: pending" and "Full CI: pending". - Parity evidence is described separately: six per-op cases and 21 engine-step records, with decode-only metrics unchanged. - Production evidence is disclaimed: refreshed values are "Rust-engine regression baselines, not whole-model silicon validation". - Failure condition not met: The description does not cite any nested or inactive workflow as hosted CI evidence. The only CI reference is the old #331 Full CI run, cited for its failures and for the fix in #335, not as passing evidence. Limitation: I assessed the description text against the criteria. I did not re-run the cited tests.

Full details: Out of Scope Changes check

Explanation

The MoE model, test, and golden changes implement #508. The changes since the previous reviewed head add CI and workflow changes that do not relate to #508 and are not described in the PR description. These changes: (1) rename self-hosted runner labels from prod-aisimulate-default-* to prod-aisim-default-* and prod-aisim-* in .github/actionlint.yaml, ci.yml, collector-check.yml, e2e-accuracy-branch.yml, fpe-release-qualify.yml, fpe-support-matrix.yml, fpm-accuracy-branch.yml, nightly-ci.yml, performance.yml, prediction-regression-gate.yml, and simulation-performance.yml; (2) change container HOME paths from /__w/aisimulate/aisimulate to /__w/aisim/aisim across the same workflows; (3) add a new .github/workflows/runner-canary.yml workflow. None of these changes implements an objective of #508.

Resolution

Remove the runner-label, container HOME, and runner-canary.yml workflow changes from this PR. Keep the PR limited to the MoE model, its tests, the golden and README refreshes, and the actionlint runner-label change only if it is required for CI on this PR. If the runner rename is required, document the reason in the PR description and link the issue or PR that requires it. Otherwise, move the infrastructure changes to a separate PR. Then rerun the focused test command and the affected CI workflows.

Full details: Cross-Layer Contract

Explanation

PR #509 (author PeaBrane, verified) adds one context_logits_gemm to MOEModel (moe.py lines 326-338). The change traces to these consumers: - Goldens: per_op.json and engine_step.json carry the fdd84a8e pin on 6 per-op and 21 engine-step records, matching the README counts. - Rust engine: is_logits_gemm() (op.rs 555-558) matches by name, so the new op follows the existing context-phase logits path. - Qwen3-VL-MoE: inherits MOEModel. - SGLang large-EP: the op is added before the early return (moe.py 351-355), and test_large_ep_model_graphs.py is updated. - Docs: the parity README section is consistent with the golden pins. Gaps against the Cross-layer contract check: 1. CP split path is untested. The new op passes seq_split=cp (moe.py line 335). test_moe_logits_gemm.py (113 lines, read in full) asserts only the op count, (n, k, quant, scale_factor), and matching shape. It never asserts _seq_split. The qwen3-moe-sglang-cp2 case builds the model but does not check the split. The PR and linked #508 both name "existing context-parallel split semantics" as the contract. Sibling tests (test_moe_block_builder.py lines 128, 150; test_hybrid_minimax_moe_blocks.py lines 180-181) do assert _seq_split for CP paths. 2. Resident-weight and KV-capacity consumer is untested. The PR states that prefill latency and resident weights increase and that KV capacity is corrected. Resident weights come from context_ops (base.py line 177; task_v2.py lines 1333, 1482). No test in the PR asserts that the MoE context weight sum includes vocab_size // tp * hidden * 2. The claim rests on the code path alone. 3. AFD consumer is not traced for MoE. afd_partition._is_boundary_op (line 261) classifies any name containing logits_gemm as boundary. The PR adds a new MoE context op that now reaches this classifier. No MoE AFD test is added or cited. Items 1 and 2 are explicit PR assertions (CP2 tested; weights and KV capacity corrected) without matching assertions. Under this check, that is a new path left untested and an effect asserted without evidence. Verified and consistent: author identity; golden pin counts; name-based Rust handling; subclass inheritance; SGLang large-EP ordering.

Resolution

Add assertions that cover the untested contract layers: 1. In test_moe_logits_gemm.py, for the CP configuration (qwen3-moe-sglang-cp2), assert that the context_logits_gemm op has _seq_split == cp_size. Also assert that the generation LM head is unchanged and has no seq_split. 2. Add a unit test that asserts the MoE context weight inventory includes the LM-head shard. For example, build a MoE model with TP2 and assert that the sum of get_weights() over context_ops includes (vocab_size // 2) * hidden * 2 bytes for context_logits_gemm. Alternatively, check _resident_weight_bytes or get_weights if that path exists. 3. Cite or add an AFD partition test for a MoE family that confirms context_logits_gemm is classified as a boundary op on the intended side. Alternatively, state that the AFD path is out of scope for this PR.

@tianhaox @Harrilee — could one of you review this MoE prefill LM-head accounting fix when you have a chance? Tianhao's MoE/CP work in #240 and Harry's review of the related accounting fix in #303 seemed relevant.

This is the contributor-fork replacement for #331, merged with current main. All 452 focused model and golden parity tests passed locally; #508 tracks the bug for team intake. Thanks!

Linked repositories findings

ai-dynamo/aiconfigurator

  • MOEModel currently builds context_ops without a logits GEMM, while generation_ops adds generation_logits_gemm at aic-core/src/aiconfigurator_core/sdk/models/moe.py:318-329. This is the same omission corrected by the PR. [::ai-dynamo/aiconfigurator::]
  • The frozen graph tests explicitly expect no context_logits_gemm for both fused and SGLang large-EP traditional MoE graphs (tests/unit/sdk/models/test_large_ep_model_graphs.py:680-730, 901-929). The PR’s stated SGLang large-EP inclusion therefore intentionally diverges from this compatibility reference. [::ai-dynamo/aiconfigurator::]
  • Existing context logits implementations use vocab_size // tp, hidden_size, and BF16 (hybrid_moe.py:421-425, minimax_m3.py:184-185). They do not pass seq_split; the PR’s context-parallel seq_split=cp is a behavior difference that should be reconciled if parity is expected. [::ai-dynamo/aiconfigurator::]
  • Compiled parity validates operation counts and ordered names against model.context_ops/generation_ops (aic-core/rust/aiconfigurator-core/parity_tests/test_compile_engine_parity.py:234-260). Adding the context op requires corresponding reference graph/golden updates where these repositories are expected to remain aligned. [::ai-dynamo/aiconfigurator::]
  • task_v2.py:1323-1351 documents that memory sizing derives resident weights from model.context_ops, confirming that the omitted context projection affects both prefill latency and memory capacity modeling. [::ai-dynamo/aiconfigurator::]

ai-dynamo/dynamo

  • A broad search found no direct references to context_logits_gemm, generation_logits_gemm, or MOEModel; no downstream runtime/schema consumer was identified. [::ai-dynamo/dynamo::]

327-338: 🎯 Functional Correctness

The seq_split=cp concern remains undecidable. MOEModel documents token-major CP and applies seq_split=cp to the context logits GEMM, but the supplied source does not include GemmOp's token-count calculation. It does not establish whether m=1 uses ceiling division or a lower value.

The resident-weight double-counting concern is not supported. Resident weights are derived from non-draft context_ops; generation_ops is separate. The SGLang large-EP branch also reaches the logits GEMM before returning.

Add a seq_split assertion for the cp2 SGLang fixture.

_vocab_heads() excludes _seq_split, so changing only the context logits GEMM from seq_split=cp to seq_split=1 would still pass the current test. No related test on this path checks the value.

+        context_logits = next(op for op in model.context_ops if op._name == "context_logits_gemm")

Reviewed commit: 80e5465119c9381879d68fc27811bb843c46fd78

9.2/10 · high confidence

Adds the missing BF16 prefill LM-head GEMM to MOEModel, including its SGLang large-EP path, so first-token latency and resident-weight inventory include the vocabulary projection. The PR adds model regressions and selectively refreshes affected golden records.

9.2/10; APPROVE as a local technical recommendation. No new actionable defect was found. All 452 focused model/parity cases and ten independent memory/CP checks passed against an exact-head native build. The existing CP2 assertion suggestion is already tracked by CodeRabbit. Merge conflicts, missing hosted Full CI, the unresolved thread, and CODEOWNER approval remain separate merge gates.

Failed pre-merge checks:
- Out of Scope Changes check:
Remove the runner-label, container `HOME`, and `runner-canary.yml` workflow
changes from this PR. Keep the PR limited to the MoE model, its tests, the
golden and README refreshes, and the actionlint runner-label change only if it
is required for CI on this PR. If the runner rename is required, document the
reason in the PR description and link the issue or PR that requires it.
Otherwise, move the infrastructure changes to a separate PR. Then rerun the
focused test command and the affected CI workflows.

- Cross-Layer Contract:
Add assertions that cover the untested contract layers: 1. In
`test_moe_logits_gemm.py`, for the CP configuration (`qwen3-moe-sglang-cp2`),
assert that the `context_logits_gemm` op has `_seq_split == cp_size`. Also
assert that the generation LM head is unchanged and has no `seq_split`. 2. Add a
unit test that asserts the MoE context weight inventory includes the LM-head
shard. For example, build a MoE model with TP2 and assert that the sum of
`get_weights()` over `context_ops` includes `(vocab_size // 2) * hidden * 2`
bytes for `context_logits_gemm`. Alternatively, check `_resident_weight_bytes`
or `get_weights` if that path exists. 3. Cite or add an AFD partition test for a
MoE family that confirms `context_logits_gemm` is classified as a boundary op on
the intended side. Alternatively, state that the AFD path is out of scope for
this PR.

Multi-repo context ai-dynamo/dynamo, ai-dynamo/aiconfigurator

Linked repositories findings

ai-dynamo/dynamo

No direct consumers of MOEModel or the logits GEMM ops. The search for context_logits_gemm, generation_logits_gemm, MOEModel, and engine_step.json returned no matches in the dynamo code. Its matches for aisim were all AISimulate package, crate, path, or config references. The PR's engine-model change is therefore not directly consumed here, but these pins decide when it reaches dynamo:

  • Cargo.toml pins aisimulate-core to an exact dev version: aisimulate-core = { version = "=0.13.0-dev.202610290000000087" } [::ai-dynamo/dynamo::Cargo.toml:79-80]
  • container/deps/requirements.aisimulate.txt pins the same version and says to keep it in sync with the Cargo pins: aisimulate==0.13.0.dev202610290000000087 [::ai-dynamo/dynamo::container/deps/requirements.aisimulate.txt:5-6]
  • The operator's generated schema is pinned to the same version: deploy/operator/internal/aisimulate/schemas/latest.json [::ai-dynamo/dynamo::deploy/operator/internal/aisimulate/schemas/latest.json:2]

Because the PR states that it changes no schema or API, these pins should not need changes for this fix alone. Any release that carries it would need the pins updated together. The PR's claim of "no schema/API change" is consistent with the operator schema generator, but I did not verify the generator's behavior.

Dynamo's aisimulate_core consumers are the Rust mocker (lib/mocker/src/...) and Python test/config code (components/src/dynamo/common/configuration/groups/ais_perf_args.py:109, which imports ForwardPassPerfModelConfig). None of the matched lines reference the MoE prefill logits path. The downstream effect would show up as changed prefill latency and KV-capacity numbers in consumers that run the perf model. I did not confirm that any dynamo test asserts those numbers.

ai-dynamo/aiconfigurator (frozen migration reference)

Possible omitted port in the reference MOEModel. MOEModel is defined at aic-core/src/aiconfigurator_core/sdk/models/moe.py:23. The search over that file found only generation_logits_gemm at line 322 and no context_logits_gemm, logits_gemm emission, or lm_head match elsewhere in the file [::ai-dynamo/aiconfigurator::aic-core/src/aiconfigurator_core/sdk/models/moe.py:322]. This points to the same context-side omission that issue #508 describes. Other models in the reference do emit a context-side vocabulary GEMM with the decode shard shape, for example:

  • hybrid_moe.py:423 ops.GEMM("context_logits_gemm", 1, self._vocab_size // tp, h, ...) [::ai-dynamo/aiconfigurator::aic-core/src/aiconfigurator_core/sdk/models/hybrid_moe.py:423]
  • qwen35.py:414 same shape [::ai-dynamo/aiconfigurator::aic-core/src/aiconfigurator_core/sdk/models/qwen35.py:414]
  • minimax_m3.py:184 same shape with tp_size [::ai-dynamo/aiconfigurator::aic-core/src/aiconfigurator_core/sdk/models/minimax_m3.py:184]
  • gemma4.py:336 same shape [::ai-dynamo/aiconfigurator::aic-core/src/aiconfigurator_core/sdk/models/gemma4.py:336]

Caveat: a grep only shows literal names. If moe.py built the context op through a helper that does not contain logits_gemm as a substring, this check would miss it. A reviewer should confirm by reading the context branch of MOEModel's graph construction.

Subclass coverage. Qwen3VLMoEModel extends MOEModel at qwen3vl.py:62 [::ai-dynamo/aiconfigurator::aic-core/src/aiconfigurator_core/sdk/models/qwen3vl.py:62]. The model README says it "rides MOEModel" but is excluded from LARGE_EP_READY_FAMILIES because Qwen3VLMoEModel.create() does not forward backend_name [::ai-dynamo/aiconfigurator::aic-core/src/aiconfigurator_core/sdk/models/README.md:106]. The PR and issue #508 list the VL subclass and the SGLang large-EP graph as affected. The reviewer should check whether the large-EP path reaches the VL subclass at all, since the reference README says it does not.

Existing test expectations. tests/unit/sdk/models/test_large_ep_model_graphs.py has context_logits_gemm assertions at lines 307, 560, 829, and 888, and a TestMOEModelLargeEP class with generation_logits_gemm at line 690 [::ai-dynamo/aiconfigurator::tests/unit/sdk/models/test_large_ep_model_graphs.py:690]. I did not read those blocks, so I cannot say whether they cover the MOEModel context op. They are the first place to check for an expected op count change.

Parity goldens. aic-core/rust/aiconfigurator-core/parity_tests/goldens/per_op.json contains multiple context_logits_gemm entries (for example lines 151, 257, 927) [::ai-dynamo/aiconfigurator::aic-core/rust/aiconfigurator-core/parity_tests/goldens/per_op.json:151]. The PR's parity golden is goldens/engine_step.json in the aisim repo, not this file. I did not verify which model each entry belongs to, so this file is only a pointer for a drift check.

Review notes

  • The dynamo findings are mostly dependency and version-pin evidence. A release of the fix would need coordinated pin bumps in Cargo.toml, the requirements file, and the operator schema.
  • The aiconfigurator findings suggest the frozen reference may share the omission. Whether the PR's fix should also be ported there depends on the reference's stated role as a drift detector.

.github/workflows/ci.yml: 1

271-271: Stability & Availability

The comment's central claim depends on live runner-pool access for ai-dynamo/aisim. The repository declares and provisions these labels, and the workflow references them consistently. Runner inventory is denied, and no hosted job runs are visible at the reviewed head or on any branch. Whether the replacement pools are available to this repository cannot be decided from the supplied evidence. Do not post a comment on this basis until pool access is confirmed.

.github/workflows/performance.yml: 1

56-56: Security & Privacy

The concern assumes that an untrusted fork can reach this job on the new pool. The repository does not establish that path. The push trigger fires only on pull-request/* copies, which the review contract treats as trusted. The workflow_dispatch trigger needs a manual actor. The diff changes only the runner label and HOME, so it does not change how PR code reaches the job. The same label already runs PR-head builds in ci.yml. Whether the new pool isolates jobs is an external runner-configuration question that this PR does not change, and the repository does not establish a defect in it. No material finding remains from the supplied evidence.

.github/workflows/runner-canary.yml: 1

55-57: Stability & Availability

The /scratch probe at lines 55-58 depends on a host path that this workflow does not mount. Whether the prod-aisim-default-amd64-v1 and prod-aisim-default-arm64-v1 runner pools expose a writable /scratch inside the job container cannot be decided from this repository. The runner-provisioning configuration that would settle it is not in the checkout, so the verdict below reflects that gap.

9.1/10 · high confidence

Adds the missing BF16 prefill vocabulary projection to MoE models and their SGLang large-EP graph, correcting first-token latency and resident-weight accounting. This head also adopts the renamed AISim runner pools and container workspace paths and adds a three-pool runner canary.

9.1/10; APPROVE as a local technical recommendation. No actionable defect was found in the CI-only delta: 351 workflow contract tests pass, and the existing workflows change only runner labels and workspace paths. The model implementation, tests, goldens, and all execution/dependency inputs are unchanged from the prior review. Missing hosted CI and canary execution evidence, the unresolved bot thread, and conflicts with main remain separate acceptance and merge checks.
