- vllm.service.j2: branch on role==embedding for --runner pooling --convert embed, --no-enable-prefix-caching, per-model trust_remote_code toggle (needed for nomic-embed-text-v1.5's custom NomicBertModel code), and enforce_eager toggle (needed to avoid CUDA graph capture OOM when co-resident with another vLLM process on this 24GB card). - tasks/verify.yml: split completions vs embedding smoke tests -- embedding-mode instances don't serve /v1/completions. Assert a non-empty embedding vector, not just HTTP 200. - host_vars/astro-orbiter: enable nomic-embed-text-v1.5 (port 8020), lower primary model's gpu_memory_utilization 0.95->0.90 + add enforce_eager after finding 0.95 crash-looped 6-7x before stabilizing with co-resident nomic-embed (real fix, confirmed via NRestarts=0 after clean stop/start, not luck). - Hindsight (values.yaml + externalsecret.yaml): cut LLM + embeddings over to vLLM (:8000, :8020), wire the previously-unset HINDSIGHT_API_EMBEDDINGS_* env vars for the first time, and swap the API key secret source from the Nous fallback item to vllm/api-key (vLLM enforces real auth, llama-swap did not). - README: document the embedding-mode branch, VRAM findings, and a genuine architecture gap -- vLLM's one-model-per-process design cannot replace llama-swap's 5-model LRU roster on this 24GB card, so 21 Hermes profiles' aux-model consumers (Qwen3-8B-no_think, Phi-3.5-mini, Meta-Llama-3.1-8B, Qwen2.5-Coder-14B) and OpenViking's VLM stay on llama-swap. Full teardown (t_6dff1ecc) needs a human decision on the aux-model strategy before it can proceed.
