perf(ai): CPU-tuned local inference + qwen2.5-coder sandbox path
Tier A/B/C wins for the CPU-only Ollama box (no GPU → optimize TTFT and tokens/sec, not VRAM): - Separate qwen2.5-coder provider for the sandbox `!task` path; chat keeps the general model. Auto-selected when chat is Ollama and a coder build is present, override with --code-model. - OllamaProvider num_ctx default 8192→4096 (8192 was a GPU-mindset default that inflates prefill/TTFT on CPU); expose num_thread; add --num-ctx, --num-thread, --num-predict. token_budget default 3000→2000 to fit. - OllamaProvider.stream() generator over Ollama's stream=True chat endpoint (provider half of token streaming; agent/Rust rendering is a follow-up). - Few-shot request→shell exemplars in SANDBOX_SYSTEM to anchor the small model's fenced-command output. - Matryoshka embedding truncation: OllamaEmbedder truncate_dim=256 (--embed-dim) for faster pure-Python cosine and less RAM; query+stored share the dim. - docs/ai-perf-plan.md records all 8 items with status and the server-side env (OLLAMA_NUM_PARALLEL=1, keep_alive) that must be set where ollama serve runs.

# AI agent: CPU-only performance & code-quality plan
|
||||
|
||||
Hardware reality: the box serving local models is **CPU-only** (Intel i5-8350U,
|
||||
4c/8t, no GPU, 62 GB RAM), Ollama 0.3.9. So we optimize **time-to-first-token**
|
||||
(prefill is O(context)) and **tokens/sec**, not VRAM. GPU knobs (flash attention,
|
||||
KV-cache quant) are no-ops here.
|
||||
|
||||
## Status
|
||||
|
||||
### Tier A — high impact / low effort
|
||||
1. **`qwen2.5-coder` for the sandbox/code path.** *(done)* `qwen2.5-coder:1.5b`
|
||||
pulled and wired as a separate code provider used only by `!task`; chat keeps
|
||||
the general model. Same speed, better shell/code. Auto-selected when the chat
|
||||
provider is Ollama and the coder model is present; override with `--code-model`.
|
||||
2. **Lower `num_ctx` to 4096 + expose `num_thread`.** *(done)* OllamaProvider
|
||||
default `num_ctx` 8192→4096 (8192 was a GPU-mindset default that inflated TTFT
|
||||
on CPU); `token_budget` default 3000→2000 to fit. `--num-ctx`, `--num-thread`,
|
||||
`--num-predict` flags added. `num_thread` defaults to Ollama's own (= physical
|
||||
cores, 4 here); benchmark 4/6/8.
|
||||
3. **Token streaming.** *(partial — provider half done)* `OllamaProvider.stream()`
|
||||
now yields deltas from Ollama's `stream=True` chat endpoint. Still TODO (commit 2):
|
||||
have the agent emit `_ai:"stream"` delta frames and the Rust client render an
|
||||
in-progress bubble. On CPU, perceived latency is TTFT — this will make a slow
|
||||
reply feel live.
|
||||
4. **Keep model warm + single-flight.** *(partial)* `keep_alive` already 30m
|
||||
(prevents mid-session reload). `OLLAMA_NUM_PARALLEL=1` is a **server-side env**
|
||||
read by `ollama serve`, not settable from the agent — set it where Ollama is
|
||||
launched (documented below).
|
||||
|
||||
### Tier B — code-generation quality
|
||||
5. **Few-shot in `SANDBOX_SYSTEM`.** *(done)* 1–2 request→shell exemplars to anchor
|
||||
the small model's output format.
|
||||
6. **GBNF constrained output.** *(blocked on #7)* Ollama 0.3.9 only supports
|
||||
`format: json`, not custom grammars for fenced shell. Needs the upgrade; the
|
||||
existing `_extract_commands` parser + few-shot cover the gap meanwhile.
|
||||
|
||||
### Tier C — infra / housekeeping
|
||||
7. **Upgrade Ollama 0.3.9 → current.** *(manual, user-run)* System-wide action that
|
||||
restarts the daemon other projects share — not run automatically. Buys current
|
||||
coder builds, structured-output/grammar support (unblocks #6), bugfixes. CPU
|
||||
speed gains are incremental. Suggested: `curl -fsSL https://ollama.com/install.sh | sh`.
|
||||
8. **Matryoshka embedding truncation.** *(done)* nomic-embed-text is MRL-trained;
|
||||
truncate vectors to 256-dim (`--embed-dim`) for faster pure-Python cosine and
|
||||
less RAM. Query + stored use the same dim, so cosine stays correct.
|
||||
|
||||
## Server-side env (set where `ollama serve` runs, e.g. systemd unit or shell)
|
||||
```
|
||||
OLLAMA_NUM_PARALLEL=1 # single interactive user → all cores to one request
|
||||
OLLAMA_KEEP_ALIVE=30m # or -1 to pin forever (62 GB RAM is plenty)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Notes
|
||||
All grounded in public sources + the Obsidian vault (`research/2026-06-02-*`):
|
||||
Q4_K_M is the CPU speed sweet spot, small `num_ctx` beats "context rot", and
|
||||
qwen2.5-coder beats the general model at equal size for code.
