SERGE PHASE 3 GOES LIVE: POD-PER-TASK EXECUTION REPLACES IN-PROCESS MODEL

Serge's orchestration layer is shipping its biggest architectural shift: each task now runs in its own isolated Kubernetes pod, complete with the full LLM loop and normalization, while the main app becomes a thin HTTP-driven supervisor.

The pod-per-task execution model [1] is rolling to production after hitting a critical egress blocker that hung every checkout for 5 minutes [2]. The fix routes git operations through the allowlisting proxy, unblocking Phase 3 verification. To support this shift, CI now builds two new images: the task-runner pod (transformers-quality toolchain plus serge) and an egress-proxy sidecar [3], both pushed to ghcr.io on every commit. On the transformers side, FSDP tests wired into the dynamic PR CI caller [6] mirror the tensor-parallel test flow, while PEFT integration tests graduated to their own isolated job [5]. A new manual Serge exerciser workflow [4] tests the write-capable /tasks flow end-to-end against transformers-test-ci using in-VPC runners and OIDC minting. TRL is cleaning house: redundant `get_kbit_device_map()` calls removed from 29 files [9], KTO loss internals shed their `policy_` prefix [10], and PEFT models now work with Liger kernels in DPO [11]. Transformers exporters [7] landed partial support for unified PyTorch/ONNX/ExecuTorch export with rope-index fixes for get_rope_index models, while GLM-Moe-DSA now uses interleaved rope in its indexer [8].
