🔴 Important: the recipe's VLLM_ENGINE_READY_TIMEOUT_S=3600 isn't actually applied — nothing in this repo ever sets that variable (grep -rn VLLM_ENGINE_READY_TIMEOUT hits only this comment). startup_timeout flows to BFCL_STARTUP_TIMEOUT, which is only the external health poll in scripts/bfcl/launch_arm.sh (wait_http/wait_grpc, line 119/140). vLLM's engine-core readiness handshake is enforced inside the server process against its own env default (600s), so if GLM-5.3-Flash's FP8 load + KDA/sparse-MLA JIT takes longer than that, the engine aborts itself and the 3600s poll just watches a dead process — the leg fails at startup regardless of this value. The recipe raising the ceiling to 3600 is evidence this model does exceed the default.
Fix is to export it into the server's environment, e.g. in the "Launch arms + run official BFCL A/B" step env: block:
VLLM_ENGINE_READY_TIMEOUT_S: ${{ matrix.startup_timeout }}(same for nightly-tau2.yml; the launch scripts setsid-detach the servers from this step's shell, so step-level env is inherited by both arms.)

🔴 Important: same as nightly-bfcl.yml — startup_timeout: 3600 only widens TAU2_STARTUP_TIMEOUT (the wait_http/wait_grpc poll in scripts/tau2/launch_arms.sh), it does not set the recipe's VLLM_ENGINE_READY_TIMEOUT_S, which is enforced inside the vLLM process against its own default. Export VLLM_ENGINE_READY_TIMEOUT_S: ${{ matrix.startup_timeout }} in the "Launch arms + run τ²-bench A/B" step env: block so the engine-side ceiling matches.

🟡 Nit: worth double-checking --kv-cache-dtype fp8 against the sparse-MLA path before the first real run. The deepseek-v4.1 leg 50 lines up had to drop its explicit kv-cache flag precisely because vLLM's sparse-MLA path resolves auto → fp8_ds_mla itself and rejects/ignores a caller-chosen dtype; GLM-5.3-Flash is described here as NoPE sparse MLA too, so plain fp8 may hit the same mismatch on this wheel (the recipe's flag list can lag the model PR that changed the resolution). Cheap to confirm from the arm-A log line that prints the resolved KV dtype on a only=glm-5.3-flash dispatch; if it errors, auto (i.e. omit the flag) is the safe value. Both arms get vllm_extra, so a failure here takes down the whole leg rather than skewing the A/B.
| - **sequential** (`deepseek-v4.1`) — for a model that needs the whole node (TP=8) | ||
| so the arms can't coexist: `run_ab.py --score-arm` scores arm A alone → tears it | ||
| down → scores arm B alone → `--diff-baseline/--diff-candidate` compares the two | ||
| saved score files. Flip a leg's `arm_mode` to enable it. |

🟡 Nit: "Flip a leg's arm_mode to enable it." is a leftover from when sequential was "in reserve, unused" — now that deepseek-v4.1 ships as a sequential leg, this trailing sentence reads as if the mode still needs enabling. Suggest dropping it (or rewording to "set a leg's arm_mode to sequential to use it").

…3-Flash Replace the glm-5.2 leg (zai-org/GLM-5.2-FP8, ~744GB, whole node, arms sequential) with glm-5.3-flash (zai-org/GLM-5.3-Flash) in nightly-bfcl and nightly-tau2. - GLM-5.3-Flash is a 321B/18B-active native-FP8 multimodal MoE (~306GiB, KDA + NoPE sparse MLA) that fits a TP=4 half-node, so the leg becomes a concurrent TP=4 Blackwell leg like minimax-m2.7 / kimi-k2.6 and deepseek-v4.1 is now the only sequential whole-node leg. - Flags follow the vLLM recipe (models/zai-org/GLM-5.3-Flash.yaml): glm47/glm45 parsers, --kv-cache-dtype fp8 on Blackwell. SMG keeps glm47_moe/glm45 (GLM-5.3 retains the GLM-4.7 tool-call markers). - Support is on vLLM main only (vllm-project/vllm#53906), so the leg reuses the per-commit wheel override introduced for deepseek-v4.1; the pinned commit already contains Glm5Next. - Startup ceiling 3600s per the recipe's VLLM_ENGINE_READY_TIMEOUT_S; run timeouts back to the concurrent-leg norms.

Description
Problem
The nightly BFCL and τ²-bench matrices run their GLM leg on
zai-org/GLM-5.2-FP8(~744 GB), which needs the whole 8×B200 node and forces sequential arms. We want the leg on GLM-5.3-Flash.Solution
Replace

It fits a TP=4 half-node, so the leg becomes a concurrent Blackwell leg likeminimax-m2.7andkimi-k2.6, anddeepseek-v4.1is now the only sequential whole-node leg.Flags follow the vLLM recipe (
vllm-project/recipesmodels/zai-org/GLM-5.3-Flash.yaml, B200 verified):--tool-call-parser glm47 --reasoning-parser glm45,--kv-cache-dtype fp8on Blackwell, FlashInfer ≥ 0.6.18. SMG keepsglm47_moe/glm45: GLM-5.3 retains the GLM-4.7<tool_call>/<arg_key>markers and<think>reasoning.GLM-5.3-Flash support is on vLLM main only (vllm-project/vllm#53906, 2026-09-03; the recipe says
min_vllm_version: 0.29.0+nightly_required: true). The per-commit wheel pinned in #2551 (a31ec3a6…, 2026-09-16, re-pinned after the first V4.1 dispatch hit an unregistered arch) already registersGlm5NextForConditionalGeneration, so this leg sets the samevllm_commit/vllm_versionand both main-only legs share one wheel.Changes
