 - BaseDiT signature is `__init__(self, config: DiTConfig, hf_config: dict)`; the branch `Cosmos3VFMTransformer` uses `fastvideo_args`/SimpleNamespace and does NOT conform — rewrite to conform + match the checkpoint key surface (single `layers` dual-pathway, not split language_model/gen_layers).
 - Native layers (per cosmos2_5): `ReplicatedLinear`/`MLP`/`RMSNorm` (fastvideo.layers.*), `LocalAttention`/`DistributedAttention` (fastvideo.attention), `apply_rotary_emb` (use_real_unbind_dim=-2 for Cosmos). EntryClass at module bottom; class attrs bound from config; 3D-MRoPE has no reusable util — adapt Cosmos25RotaryPosEmbed.
 - NEXT: write native `fastvideo/models/dits/cosmos3.py` + fastvideo-vs-framework forward parity test (copy framework weights into the FastVideo DiT, compare outputs), then conversion script (diffusers checkpoint -> FastVideo) + strict-load, then video pipeline/packing.

+### PR1 (video core) acceptance — real-weights E2E — 2026-06-07
+- First real-weights T2V (`examples/inference/basic/basic_cosmos3_new_api.py`, `COSMOS3_MODEL_PATH=official_weights/cosmos3`) ran mechanically but produced an all-black 3 KB mp4. Instrumenting the denoise loop showed `v_pred` clean at step 0 but `scheduler.step` -> NaN. Root cause I003: checkpoint `scheduler_config.json` is diffusers-style (`use_karras_sigmas=true`), and the vendored UniPC checks karras before `use_flow_sigmas` -> diffusion (beta) sigmas instead of flow sigmas -> NaN. The framework actually samples with `FlowUniPCMultistepScheduler` (pure flow: `shift` + `num_train_timesteps`).
+- Fix (commit `255311cf2`): coerce the loaded scheduler to the flow setup in `Cosmos3OmniDiffusersPipeline.initialize_pipeline`; use FastVideo's native UniPC (not diffusers) in pipeline + tests. Added `test_cosmos3_scheduler_parity.py` (native UniPC flow-config vs framework `FlowUniPCMultistepScheduler`: timesteps bit-exact, sigmas ~1e-8, full trajectory <~1e-6 over shift in {10,3}, steps in {4,10,35}). Repointed `test_cosmos3_denoise_cfg_parity` oracle to the framework scheduler (it previously compared diffusers-vs-diffusers, so the scheduler was never checked against the framework).
+- Also wired the remaining integration glue (registry alias `Cosmos3OmniTransformer`->`Cosmos3VFMTransformer`; `text_tokenizer`->TokenizerLoader; scheduler config param-filtering; DiT `materialize_non_persistent_buffers` + compute-dtype casts; packing device-move in `to_dit_kwargs`; empty text-preprocess).
+- Verified: 1280x704, 29 frames, 35 steps on a single B200 -> coherent golden-retriever-in-meadow video matching the prompt (no NaNs; per-frame pixel std ~58; visible temporal motion). Full cosmos3 suite: 95 passed, 0 skipped.
+- NEXT: PR2 audio (`sound_tokenizer` AVAE) / PR3 action / PR4 reasoning. Optional: I2V/T2I real-weights spot-checks; force-push branch (needs explicit OK).
