Register reserve under agents hub and pin VAULT storage.

Classify freedom-intelligence for State Hub (agents domain), sync FI-WP-0001..0003 with hub IDs, enrich catalog entries with profile/SWOT, and pin the open-weight reserve to D:\vault\coulomb\freedom-intelligence\ with strategic S-tier policy.

# Backup storage policy — open-weight model reserve

| Requirement | Policy |
| ----------- | ------ |
| **Class** | Backup / bulk durable storage — **not** hot cluster PVCs or app disks |

| **Facility** | Workstation VAULT HD (`D:`) under `D:\vault\coulomb\` (interim pin 2026-07-28) |
| **Durability** | Survives WSL rebuilds; weights live on the VAULT volume, not the git/WSL root |

| **Access** | Operator and approved lab hosts only; not a public mirror |
| **Separation** | Do not co-mingle with age-encrypted operational backups (Forgejo dumps, k3s state) without a clear subdirectory and different lifecycle rules |
Platform backup paths such as `/opt/backup/railiance/{infra,cluster}/` and
`~/.cache/railiance/backups/` are **operational recovery** lanes. The model
reserve may live on the **same physical facility** only if isolated by path and
quota so large weight pulls cannot crowd out restore media.
`~/.cache/railiance/backups/` are **operational recovery** lanes. Model weights
belong on the **VAULT model tree**, not on railiance hot disks.

VAULT volume under `D:\vault\coulomb\` for now. Soft quota **850 GiB** for the
model tree still applies (self-imposed discipline; disk is larger).

### Portfolio guidance on 1 TB
* Always keep the **runnable spine (R / former P0)** resident.
* Use remaining space for a **small number of most-capable open models (S)**,
preferably well-provenance compressed weights when full precision would exhaust the disk.
* Do **not** attempt to mirror entire HF orgs.
* Full bf16 of multiple 600B-class models will **not** fit; prioritize top capability identities.

## Operator checklist to pin TBD fields
## Operator checklist
- [ ] Choose facility and base path
- [ ] Confirm free capacity and set soft quota
- [ ] Document mount/access for lab hosts
- [ ] Confirm credential path (if any)
- [ ] Create empty `models/` and `staging/` directories
- [ ] Update this file: replace `TBD` rows with concrete values
- [ ] Note pin date and operator in revision history below
- [x] Choose facility: bulk durable storage for model reserve (2026-07-24 intent)
- [x] Set soft quota: **850 GiB** / hard stop **920 GiB**
- [x] Pin path: **`D:\vault\coulomb\freedom-intelligence\`** (2026-07-28)
- [x] Create `models/`, `staging/`, `companions/`
- [x] Document Windows + WSL path forms above
- [x] Ensure WSL can see `D:` (`/mnt/d`) when downloads run from Linux (verified 2026-07-28)

## Relationship to disaster-control
`disaster-control` owns **platform resilience** (what to restore after loss).
Freedom Intelligence owns **which open weights we choose to retain** and their
inventory. Shared facilities are fine; shared lifecycle rules are not automatic —
model reserve is large, slow-changing, and rarely needed for emergency restore.

| 2026-07-24 | operator direction | Facility intent = 1 TB local NAS; soft quota 850 GiB; strategic unrunnable models in scope |

# Decision: 1TB local NAS + strategic capability reserve
**Date:** 2026-07-24
**Status:** accepted
**Affects:** `docs/backup-storage-policy.md`, `inventory/collection-policy.md`,
`docs/hardware-envelope.md`, collection tiers, FI-WP-0001 / 0003
---
## Decision
1. **Storage backend** for the open-weight reserve is a **1 TB minimal local NAS**
attached to the lab (operator facility). Weights live there; git keeps catalog only.
2. **Reserve intent** is explicitly **not limited to currently runnable models**.
We capture the **most capable open-weight models** that license allows us to
retain, even when they exceed todays inference/training hardware (T4 and beyond).
3. **Runnability** and **reservability** are separate axes:
- *Run envelope* → what we can serve or fine-tune now (T0T3)
- *Reserve envelope* → what we store for future ops, training facility, or access loss
---
## Capacity reality check (1 TB)
| Use | Guidance |
| --- | -------- |
| Raw device | ~1 TB |
| Soft quota for model reserve | **850 GiB** (leave ~15% for FS overhead, staging, other lab bulk) |
| Hard stop | **920 GiB** used on the NAS model tree — stop new pulls |
| Growth review | At **70% of soft quota (~595 GiB)** re-prioritize; prefer drop easily re-obtained quants over unique SOTA bases |
Full-precision 600B-class MoE weights can be **multi-hundreds of GiB to >1 TB each**.
On a 1 TB NAS we therefore:
* Prefer **official or well-provenance compressed** distributions (FP8, INT4/GGUF,
published quant) when the card supports them for the *strategic* tier
* Still catalog the **base model id + revision** as the capability identity
* Accept that only a **small number of top-tier giants** fit at once — quality over quantity
* Keep the **runnable spine** (P0) always resident so local work does not depend on giants
Rough fit examples (order-of-magnitude; re-measure at download):
| Portfolio sketch | Est. total |
| ---------------- | ---------- |
| P0 quant spine only | ~2555 GiB |
| P0 + mid P1 | ~80150 GiB |
| P0 + **one** SOTA open MoE quant (~300400 GiB) | ~350450 GiB |
| P0 + two large MoE quants | can approach or exceed soft quota — choose carefully |
---
## Collection tiering (updated)
| Tier | Name | Rule |
| ---- | ---- | ---- |
| **R** | Runnable spine | Fits current/near hardware; always keep |
| **S** | Strategic capability | Best open SOTA / near-SOTA; **may be unrunnable today**; high retention |
| **W** | Watch / optional | Nice-to-have; only if soft quota headroom |
Supersedes the earlier “do not collect full DeepSeek MoE without a separate
decision” posture: **strategic collection of top open giants is in scope** for
this NAS, subject to license + soft quota.
---
## Non-goals (unchanged)
* Public model CDN or Hugging Face mirror
* Collecting closed weights
* Guaranteeing inference of every reserved model on current hosts
---
## Follow-ups
- [x] Operator: pin storage path and create `freedom-intelligence/{models,staging,companions}/`
- **2026-07-28 interim:** `D:\vault\coulomb\freedom-intelligence\` on workstation VAULT HD (~1.86 TB)
- Soft quota **850 GiB** retained (self-imposed; disk larger than original 1 TB sketch)
- [x] Update pin log in `docs/backup-storage-policy.md` with exact mount path
- [x] Seed/update catalog entries for strategic tier (S)
- [ ] FI-WP-0003: prioritize R spine + top S giants under 850 GiB soft quota
- [x] WSL: `D:` available as `/mnt/d` (verified 2026-07-28)

# Hardware envelope — homelab accessible (draft)
# Hardware envelope — run vs reserve
**Status:** assumptions + TBD measurements
**Used by:** inventory `hardware_class`, axis B/C prioritization, collection size decisions
**Status:** updated 2026-07-24 (1 TB NAS strategic reserve)
**Used by:** inventory `hardware_class`, axis B/C, collection tiers R/S
---
## Purpose
Define what Freedom Intelligence means by **homelab accessible** so we do not
collect models that only make sense on hyperscale clusters.
Separate two questions that used to be conflated:
1. **What can we run or fine-tune now?***run envelope*
2. **What should we store on the NAS just in case?***reserve envelope* (1 TB)
Collecting a model **does not** require it to fit the run envelope.
See `docs/decisions/2026-07-24-nas-strategic-reserve.md`.
