Installation
/plugin marketplace add air-gapped/skills/plugin install inference-host@air-gapped-marketplaceInference host bring-up + tuning suite — Linux/GPU bare-metal host work that sits beneath any inference framework (vLLM, sglang, TensorRT-LLM). Two phases. Bring-up (nvidia-datacenter-bringup): Ubuntu 24.04 LTS from clean OS to gpu-operator cuda-validator passing — B300/B200/H100/A100/L40S/L4 driver + fabricmanager + NVLSM + DOCA-OFED install order, NVIDIA CUDA repo + DOCA repo + air-gap mirror, MOK + DKMS sign-on-build under Secure Boot, Dell PowerEdge XE9780/XE9785 baseboard firmware via iDRAC Redfish DellOemChassis.ExtendedReset, gpu-operator pre-installed-driver-mode integration. Tuning (gpu-host-tuning): read-only snapshot of CPU power state, C-states, NUMA topology, PCIe link state, GPU settings, kernel boot params, sysctl, ulimits, IRQ affinity, container runtime; optional pinned-host↔GPU memcpy bench (torch + numactl); per-lever cheat-sheets to flip settings (governor, EPP, cpuidle, persistence, ECC, hugepages, intel_iommu, NCCL env, tuned-adm profiles, BIOS guidance for Dell XE / SMC / HPE). Surfaces config gaps that bottleneck LMCache CPU-tier throughput, KV offload, NCCL bandwidth, prefix-cache rebuild.

Harvester HCI operator suite — controlled, community-edition Harvester upgrades off an EOL line up to latest stable: the no-skip minor ladder (1.5→1.6→1.7→1.8 carrying embedded RKE2 / KubeVirt / Longhorn / SLE-Micro together), external-Rancher + Harvester UI-extension pairing and ordering, air-gapped version detection, controlling the node-by-node upgrade flow (serial interlock, the v1.7+ pause-map, and the PodDisruptionBudget + VMI-readinessProbe native gate for 1.5/1.6), keeping VM-hosted self-managed RKE2 control planes quorate via anti-affinity spread and live-migration-vs-clean-shutdown tradeoffs (busy-etcd non-convergence, auto-converge, dedicated migration network), per-hop breaking changes (wicked→NetworkManager, Intel NIC rename, DHCP churn), the enforced pre-flight health gates, and the no-downgrade backup/rollback reality. Companion to the k8s suite's k8s-components-checker (Harvester↔Rancher↔RKE2 pairing registry) and rancher-upgrade (the external Rancher's own chain).
Observability suite — Prometheus, Grafana Mimir, and Grafana reference for agents querying metrics, writing PromQL, building and fixing dashboards, and reasoning about SLOs, KPIs, and burn-rate alerting.
