tegwick a78187c33e Make the sensing loop durable and pin the reserve to Scaleway
The weekday brief only counts when the file is on origin/main. Hub
events without git objects are failures. The open-weight SoT moves
from the VAULT 850 GiB quota to a dedicated Scaleway bucket (One Zone
IA for R, Glacier for S) so V4-Flash and K3 are economically in-scope.

Catalogs the real DeepSeek-V4-Flash-0731 (MIT ~167 GiB MoE, not 12B)
and nominates Qwen3.8-27B. Bucket create remains FI-WP-0004-T08.

notes: "Apache 2.0 on the 27B dense multimodal card (2026-08-14). Confirm at pin. Not the Qwen3.8-Max bespoke licence."
profile:
summary: "Dense 27B multimodal Apache-2.0 — candidate R-spine upgrade vs Qwen3-8B."
original_source: https://huggingface.co/Qwen/Qwen3.8-27B
use_cases:
- "Local instruct / vision on T2T3 (24 GB class at Q4)"
- "Coding and office agents that need more than 8B"
- "Homelab QLoRA base"
sweet_spots:
- "Apache-2.0, ungated, actually runnable unlike V4-Flash / K3"
- "Native vision; 262k context (YaRN toward 1M)"
not_ideal_for:
- "Replacing the 8B always-on default until measured"
- "Standing in for Qwen3.8-2.4T-A95B (different licence, multi-TB)"
capability_notes: >
Released 2026-08-14, the day the automated brief last landed on
origin — so the sensing loop never recorded it. Dense 27.8B,
multimodal, Apache 2.0. Distinct from Qwen3.8-2.4T-A95B (custom
Max licence, ~4.89 TB). Nominate as W/R; do not pull until euro
budget and R-spine review after V4-Flash lands.
swot:
strengths:
- "Apache-2.0 dense multimodal at a size we can actually serve later"
- "Likely better local default than Qwen3-8B if VRAM allows"
weaknesses:
- "Larger than current verified R instruct (8B)"
- "Hardware envelope hosts still TBD"
opportunities:
- "R-spine upgrade path that does not need Glacier"
- "Vision in the local working set"
threats:
- "Qwen 4.x could supersede before we pull"
size:
total_bytes: 0
total_human: "~56 GiB class (reports); measure at pull — Q4 much smaller"
hardware_class:
min_vram_gb_q4: 20
min_vram_gb_fp16: 56
