kzlin 5a2fb8799c docs(kvc): onboarding manual for the next SWE agent
A single self-contained reading manual designed to bring a fresh agent
(LLM or human) to current-state proficiency in 30 min of reading +
30 min of environment validation, then have them run the next round of
ablation experiments without re-litigating questions already settled.

Structure:
  §0 TL;DR -- what you are inheriting in 5 lines
  §1 Reading order, tiered into Must-Read / On-Demand / Archive,
     with reasons for each
  §2 Current-state snapshot: trace/hardware/branches + claims verified
     + hypotheses pending
  §3 The three ablation experiments (E1/E2/E3) with full CLI flag
     specifications and environment-validation checklist
  §4 Known gotchas (8 of them) with symptoms and fixes -- the most
     important section to skim before you start
  §5 CLI cheatsheet: run experiments / read data / plot / git
  §6 Result-analysis checklist: numbers to collect, expected ranges
  §7 FAQ for likely stuck-points
  §8 Anti-patterns: what NOT to do
  §9 Two specific deliverables the main agent expects back
  Appendix A: file location lookup table
  Appendix B: commit lookup table (by intent)

Goals encoded into the doc:
- Frame "your job is ablation, not new development" -- the new agent
  should not be tempted to start D->P sync work; that goes on the
  feat/d-to-p-sync branch in a separate phase.
- Make abort-accounting / max-input-len / mooncake-TCP-default
  pitfalls extremely visible up front so they don't get repeated.
- Provide expected-result ranges so a 2x deviation is treated as a
  config check, not a "finding".
- Make the critic-vs-production framing explicit so the new agent
  knows when an audit-style "MAJOR" is actually a design intent.

Agentic PD Hybrid

这个项目是在 SGLang xPyD 上做一个最小实验框架,用来判断:

面向 agentic coding workload 的 session-aware / KV-cache-aware P/D routing能不能降低端到端延迟。

更完整但仍然简洁的说明见 docs/PROJECT_OVERVIEW.md

当前做了什么

  • 启动单机 SGLang P/D 栈。
  • 回放 Ali coding agent trace并记录 request-level metrics。
  • 支持 defaultstickykv-aware 路由策略。
  • 支持 pd-disaggregationkvcache-centricpd-colo 对比。
  • 支持小 append、多轮 session 的 micro-benchmark trace。
  • 维护了基于 SGLang v0.5.10 的本地 patch放在 third_party/sglang

环境

统一使用 uv

uv sync

默认模型路径:

~/models/Qwen/Qwen3-Coder-30B-A3B-Instruct

当前主要测试环境是单机 8 GPU约束是 prefill + decode <= 8

常用命令

生成小 append trace

uv run agentic-pd-hybrid make-small-append-trace \
  --output outputs/smoke-hotcap-30k-1k-256.jsonl \
  --session-count 4 \
  --turns-per-session 3 \
  --initial-input-length 30000 \
  --append-input-length 1000 \
  --output-length 256

跑 live benchmark

uv run agentic-pd-hybrid benchmark-live \
  --trace outputs/micro-serveable-varturn-30k-1k-256-20260424T0756Z.jsonl \
  --output-root outputs/live-serveable-varturn-30k-1k-256-hotcap \
  --mechanism kvcache-centric \
  --policy kv-aware \
  --kvcache-admission-mode worker \
  --prefill-workers 1 \
  --decode-workers 1 \
  --prefill-gpu-ids 0 \
  --decode-gpu-ids 1 \
  --transfer-backend mooncake \
  --target-duration-s 2000 \
  --session-sample-rate 1.0 \
  --min-turns 2 \
  --time-scale 1 \
  --concurrency-limit 1000

只回放并写 metrics

uv run agentic-pd-hybrid replay \
  --trace path/to/trace.jsonl \
  --policy kv-aware \
  --mechanism pd-disaggregation \
  --router-url http://127.0.0.1:8000 \
  --output outputs/replay.jsonl

输出

每次 replay/benchmark 会写:

  • request metricsrequest-metrics.jsonl
  • 汇总结果:request-metrics.jsonl.summary.json

重点看:

  • E2E latency
  • TTFT / TPOT
  • execution mode
  • cached tokens
  • KV transfer blocks
  • error

维护约定

  • 项目代码改动:feat: / fix: / docs:
  • SGLang 改动:feat(sglang): ... / fix(sglang): ...
  • third_party/sglang 的基线是 clean SGLang v0.5.10 snapshot。
  • 不提交 outputs/、日志、__pycache__、虚拟环境。
