## Portfolio snapshot

| Class | Count | Status mix |
| ----- | ----: | ---------- |
| Catalog entries | 13 | + Kimi K3 S1 |
| **verified** on disk | 4 | R embeds + Qwen3-8B + R1-Distill-14B |
| **approved** (pull deferred) | S giants + Llama edge + **Kimi K3** | capacity / HF gate |
| **candidate** (W) | 3 | headroom-gated |

### Disk use (model tree)

| Path | Role | Approx |
| ---- | ---- | ------ |
| `models/nomic-ai__nomic-embed-text-v1.5/main` | R embed | ~0.5 GiB verified |
| `models/BAAI__bge-m3/main` | R embed | ~2.1 GiB verified |
| `models/Qwen__Qwen3-8B/main` | R instruct | ~15.3 GiB verified |
| `models/deepseek-ai__DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Qwen-14B/main` | R reason | ~27.5 GiB verified |

**~45 GiB** used → **~800+ GiB** soft-quota headroom (insufficient for full Kimi K3 ~1454 GiB).

VAULT free (2026-08-03): ~1.7 TB free of 1.9 TB — full K3 would still dominate the volume and **violate soft quota**.

## Hardware coverage gaps

| Need | Status |
| ---- | ------ |
| Default local instruct (8B) | **Covered** (Qwen3-8B) |
| Edge micro-agent | Llama-3.2-3B blocked on HF auth |
| Multilingual RAG embed | **Covered** (BGE-M3 + nomic) |

## Next pulls (operator)

1. **Capacity decision for Kimi K3** (raise soft quota / dedicate disk / official compressed only).  
2. Set `HF_TOKEN` and pull Llama-3.2-3B-Instruct.  
3. Optional S4: one of Qwen3-72B vs Llama-3.3-70B under remaining quota.  
4. DeepSeek V4-Flash-0731 as mid open value candidate (catalog later if desired).
