Hermes Agent service account 5cf4468754 Add Qwen3-8B no-think variant — dual thinking deployment (t_664289a0)
Part A: qwen3-no-think.jinja.j2 Ansible template
  - New template: templates/qwen3-no-think.jinja.j2
    Standard Qwen3 chat template with enable_thinking unconditionally false
    (hardcoded empty <think></think> prefix at add_generation_prompt step).
    Deployed to /opt/models/templates/qwen3-no-think.jinja on astro-orbiter.
  - tasks/models.yml: deploy templates dir + qwen3-no-think.jinja via
    ansible.builtin.template task (tags: models, chat_templates).

Part B: INI preset template — two Qwen3-8B sections
  - templates/llama-server-router-preset.ini.j2:
    [Qwen3-8B-Q4_K_M] — thinking variant, same GGUF, baked-in template.
    [Qwen3-8B-Q4_K_M-no_think] — no-think variant, same GGUF,
    chat-template-file = /opt/models/templates/qwen3-no-think.jinja.
    Both sections: n-gpu-layers=99, ctx-size=32768, flash-attn=true,
    q4_0 KV cache, sleep-idle-seconds=60.

Part C: defaults/main.yml — llama-swap models + matrix
  - llm_swapmode_models: added Qwen3-8B-Q4_K_M (port 8106, GPU) and
    Qwen3-8B-Q4_K_M-no_think (port 8107, GPU, chat_template_file set).
  - llm_swapmode_matrix_rows: row5 (Qwen3-8B thinking + embed),
    row6 (Qwen3-8B no_think + embed). Neither co-resident with Qwen3.8-27B.
  - templates/llama-swap-config.yaml.j2: added chat_template_file support
    (--chat-template-file flag conditional on model.chat_template_file).
  - tasks/swapmode.yml: GATE 2 assert updated 5 -> 7 models.

Part D: war-machine config.yaml (not tracked in git)
  - custom_providers.astro-orbiter.models: added Qwen3-8B-Q4_K_M-no_think
    (context_length: 32768).
  - Reassigned 5 latency-sensitive aux tasks from Meta-Llama-3.1-8B to
    Qwen3-8B-Q4_K_M-no_think: skills_hub, approval, mcp, title_generation,
    profile_describer. Rationale: GPU-resident, lower latency, json_schema OK.
  - web_extract and compression remain on Phi-3.5-mini (long scrapes).

VRAM: both Qwen3-8B variants co-reside with nomic-embed only (~10.4GB +
84MB). Cannot co-reside with Qwen3.8-27B (17.8GB); LRU eviction applies.

# FILE: roles/llm-inference-multimodel/tasks/swapmode.yml
# DESCRIPTION: Phase S — llama-swap mode hot-swap proxy (port 8001).
#
# This phase is ADDITIVE and IDEMPOTENT. The existing production
# unit (llama-server-qwen, port 8002) is never touched here.
#
# All tasks are gated on llm_swapmode_enabled | default(false).
# With the default (false) this entire file is a no-op.
#
# When llm_swapmode_enabled: true (set by host_vars or extra-vars),
# this phase:
# swapmode_binary — download + install binary
# swapmode_config — template config.yaml
# swapmode_systemd — deploy llama-swap.service unit
# swapmode_firewall — open port 8001 to Hermes subnet
# swapmode_verify — start service, run 4 validation gates
#
# Tags map 1:1 to the sub-phases for independent execution:
# --tags swapmode_binary,swapmode_config,swapmode_systemd,swapmode_firewall,swapmode_verify
#
# IMPORTANT: swapmode_verify starts the service. Do not run
# swapmode_verify unless swapmode_binary and swapmode_systemd
# have already run.
#
# Added 2026-08-18 (t_c1e44190): llama-swap Phase 3 Ansible integration — Wong.
# Approved by War Machine Phase 1 validation (3 of 4 hard gates PASS).
# Phase 3 gated on all profiles migrated + production router decommissioned.
