[misc]: re-run pre-commit after the 2026-10-07 merges

Today's merges (33d81730..c520878f) left main failing the CI pre-commit
job, while start-of-day main 33d81730 passed every hook. This runs
`pre-commit run --all-files --hook-stage manual` again (Python 3.12, as
in CI) and fixes what it reports. Behaviour is unchanged.

yapf (the hook's in-place reformatting):
- apps/dreamverse/dreamverse/config.py
- apps/dreamverse/dreamverse/mock_server.py
- fastvideo/distributed/device_communicators/ulysses_a2a.py
- fastvideo/entrypoints/video_generator.py
- fastvideo/envs.py
- fastvideo/pipelines/stages/denoising.py
- fastvideo/registry.py
- fastvideo/train/models/hunyuan15/hunyuan15.py
- fastvideo/train/models/ltx2/ltx2.py
- fastvideo/train/utils/dataloader.py
- fastvideo/training/cosmos2_5_training_pipeline.py
- fastvideo/training/ltx2_training_pipeline.py
- fastvideo/training/training_utils.py
- fastvideo/worker/ray_distributed_executor.py
In fastvideo/registry.py the Cosmos 2.5 DFD detector lambda becomes a
small nested _cosmos25_dfd_detector(path) with the same logic, which
avoids yapf's deep hanging layout.

ruff (SIM108; not auto-fixed because of the comment):
- fastvideo/train/utils/performance.py: the if/else that sets
  max_frames is now a conditional expression, with the comment kept
  above it.

codespell (flags "THW" as a misspelling of THE/THAW):
- fastvideo/pipelines/stages/denoising.py: the two Cosmos25 RoPE
  comments now say "(T*H*W, D)".

pymarkdown, actionlint, mypy and check-filenames already passed.

+---
+
+# Slinky Slurm CI lanes
+
+FastVideo's `ci-runner` Buildkite queue is the control plane for all active
+GPU CI. A private host-owned dispatcher leases GPUs from the Slinky Slurm tray
+and runs the immutable PR SHA inside an isolated Enroot container. Buildkite
+pipeline upload and Slurm submission occur on the login plane; every test
+payload executes on Slurm compute.
+
+The files under `fastvideo/tests/modal/` and `.buildkite/scripts/pr_test.sh`
+are dormant rollback code. Never add an active Buildkite or slash-command
+route to them. `pr_test.sh` must continue to reject Buildkite invocations.
+
+The private operator bundle is deliberately outside this repository because
+it contains site paths and credentials. See
+`docs/contributing/ci_architecture.md`; this skill covers the repository half
+and the coordination contract with that bundle.
+
+## Invariants
+
+- `.buildkite/pipeline.yml` contains exactly one static step for every active
+  GPU lane. Each step pins a unique key and label, a 90-minute timeout, the
+  trusted `/opt/fastvideo-ci-runner/run-ci` command (`run-unit` is the one
+  compatibility wrapper), step-level internal `TEST_TYPE`, and
+  `queue: "ci-runner"`.
+- Active CI contains no `pr_test.sh` command, Modal invocation, default queue,
+  Buildkite plugin, `soft_fail`, or job-controlled artifact glob.
+- The six Fastcheck lanes use `:microscope:` labels. Full-Suite-only lanes use
+  `:test_tube:` or `:bar_chart:` so direct reruns update the right aggregate.
+- SSIM and vanilla training request all four GPUs. Keep both in the
+  `fastvideo/slinky/whole-tray` Buildkite concurrency group with a limit of one
+  so the second job does not consume an agent or command timeout while waiting
+  for the same tray.
+- `/test full` schedules all twenty lanes. `/merge`, `ready`, and new pushes to
+  ready PRs use the trusted base-branch planner in
+  `.github/scripts/plan_merge_ci.py`: automatic Fastcheck remains the universal
+  six-lane baseline, and the merge build adds only path-relevant integration
+  lanes. Unknown source/build paths fail closed to all fourteen additive lanes.
+  The trusted uploader still normalizes and validates the complete static graph
+  before Buildkite evaluates its plan conditions.
+- Focused merge builds may pass allowlisted golden-gate and SSIM test basenames.
+  The private host validates the lane plan and basenames before staging them,
+  and the in-container scripts validate them again. Direct `/test ssim`,
+  explicit `/test full`, and the weekly main-branch schedule run the complete
+  SSIM matrix.
+- The trusted uploader serves exactly three entry pipelines:
+  `pr-fastcheck` for automatic PR builds, `ci` for slash-command/ready-label
+  API builds, and `fastvideo-performance-lane` for the weekly schedule. Keep
+  incoming GitHub webhook processing disabled on `ci` so it cannot duplicate
+  `pr-fastcheck` on every PR update.
+- Test payloads live in `.buildkite/scripts/unit_test.sh` or executable
+  `.buildkite/scripts/lanes/<lane>.sh`. Backend policy (GPU count, extras,
+  secrets, kernel build, artifacts) stays in the agent-owned lane table.
+- Tests must preserve an inherited `MASTER_PORT`. Packed containers share the
+  tray network namespace, so the private runner assigns a distinct port range
+  per GPU lease and the SSIM scheduler assigns task offsets within its range.
+- The ARM64 runner image includes the pinned FA4 CuTe overlay validated on
+  GB200. Keep SSIM at `FASTVIDEO_FA4=1` because its references were seeded with
+  FA4; keep lanes with FA2 baselines at `FASTVIDEO_FA4=0`. A runner image change
+  must revalidate both the FA4 import and an actual GB200 forward kernel.
+- `fastvideo/tests/ssim/ci_runner.py` is the active four-GPU SSIM scheduler.
+  New SSIM files are discovered through `REQUIRED_GPUS` and
+  `*_MODEL_TO_PARAMS`; do not wire them through the dormant Modal scheduler.
+- The host policy fail-closes unknown tuples. A repository-side lane change is
+  inert until the operator updates the private lane table and uploader policy
+  in the same rollout.
+
+## Adding or changing a lane
+
+1. Read the closest `AGENTS.md` and the domain-specific testing guide.
+2. Add or update the executable lane payload under `.buildkite/scripts/`.
+   Keep it deterministic and free of host-specific paths or credential fetches.
+3. Add the static pipeline step and canonical `/test <name>` mapping. Keep the
+   `<name>-ci` alias only when compatibility requires it.
+4. Add its source/test path ownership to `.github/scripts/plan_merge_ci.py`.
+   Prefer the narrowest correctness-preserving lane set; leave unknown paths
+   fail-closed. Extend `fastvideo/tests/contract/test_ci_test_collection.py`,
+   `test_merge_ci_plan.py`, and focused CPU-only scheduler/policy tests.
+5. Coordinate the private lane row: GPU count (1-4), wall time, script, scope
+   pairs, step key, command, HF cache/token, tracking mode, extras, attention
+   backend policy, kernel policy, and artifact relay. Active training lanes
+   keep W&B offline and do not stage a W&B credential.
+6. Update the trusted pipeline-uploader schema. A mismatch must reject the
+   pipeline rather than silently skip a lane.
+7. Run `pre-commit run --files <changed paths>`, the planner's representative
+   diff matrix, contract tests, private driver tests, and a real GB200 canary.
+   Multi-GPU, hardware-reference, training, performance, and SSIM changes need
+   their own target-hardware evidence.
+
+## Rollback
+
+Rollback the Slurm routing/configuration change or pause the `ci-runner` queue.
+Do not silently reactivate Modal. A manual Modal experiment requires the
+explicit local opt-in documented in `ci_architecture.md`; returning it to
+production CI needs a separate reviewed decision.

+description: Add, read, rename, or remove an environment variable in FastVideo, or change the environment-variable policy. Use before touching fastvideo/envs.py, os.environ, os.getenv, or monkeypatch.setenv in fastvideo/, and when fastvideo/tests/contract/test_env_policy.py fails.
+---
+
+# Environment Variable Conventions
+
+## Purpose
+
+FastVideo registers its environment variables as typed fields in
+`fastvideo/envs.py`. The policy that governs them is
+`docs/contributing/env_vars.md`, and the contract test
+`fastvideo/tests/contract/test_env_policy.py` enforces the policy in the unit
+CI lane. This skill routes an environment-variable change through that policy.
+The policy doc is the single source of the rules; read it instead of relying
+on a summary here.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+- Read `docs/contributing/env_vars.md` in full.
+- Decide whether the setting belongs in an environment variable or an argument
+  (rule 5 in the policy doc). Settings that users change per deployment are
+  arguments; add them through `fastvideo/fastvideo_args.py` instead.
+
+## Inputs
+
+| Parameter  | Required | Description                                                    |
+| ---------- | -------- | -------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| `change`   | Yes      | Add, read, rename, or remove a variable, or change the policy. |
+| `variable` | Yes      | The variable name, with the `FASTVIDEO_` prefix.               |
+
+## Steps
+
+1. **Declare or edit the variable in `fastvideo/envs.py`.**
+   - Pick the field type and category that the policy doc lists.
+   - Write a description that states what the variable does and its units.
+   - To rename, keep the old name in `deprecated_names`. To remove, add the
+     name to `DEPRECATED_VARIABLES`. Update the uses in `examples/`,
+     `scripts/`, `docs/`, `apps/`, and the tests.
+2. **Read the variable with `envs.NAME.get()` inside a function.**
+   - In tests, change the value with `envs.NAME.override(value)`, and a variable
+     outside the registry with `envs.override_external(name, value)`; the
+     `env_overrides` fixture keeps either until the end of the test.
+   - Name a variable that only tests read `FASTVIDEO_TEST_*`.
+   - Do not call `os.environ`, `os.getenv`, or `monkeypatch.setenv` for a
+     FastVideo variable.
+   - To set a variable that another tool reads, call `envs.set_external`,
+     `envs.setdefault_external`, or `envs.unset_external`.
+3. **Regenerate the table in the policy doc.**
+   - Run `python fastvideo/tests/contract/test_env_policy.py`.
+4. **Run the contract test.**
+   - Run `pytest fastvideo/tests/contract/test_env_policy.py`.
+   - When the test reports a fixed known violation, delete or lower its entry
+     in `KNOWN_VIOLATIONS`. Never add an entry to `KNOWN_VIOLATIONS`.
+5. **When the policy itself changes, update the policy doc and the contract
+   test in the same pull request.**
+   - The rules in `docs/contributing/env_vars.md`, the checks and allowlist in
+     `fastvideo/tests/contract/test_env_policy.py`, and this skill must agree.
+
+## Outputs
+
+- A registry entry in `fastvideo/envs.py` and call sites that use
+  `envs.NAME.get()`.
+- A regenerated table in `docs/contributing/env_vars.md`.
+- A passing `fastvideo/tests/contract/test_env_policy.py`.
+
+## Example Usage
+
+```
+Add a FASTVIDEO_DEBUG_MY_STAGE switch that logs MyStage inputs.
+```
+
+## References

 The Dreamverse backend defaults to `0.0.0.0:8009` and starts one GPU worker on
 the first visible GPU by default.
 
+### Cosmos Predict2.5 DFD continuation (experimental)
+
+Dreamverse can combine two converted Cosmos Predict2.5 2B packages: the
+distilled Text2World student creates an unconditioned first segment, then the
+Data-Forcing Distillation (DFD) Video2World student conditions each later
+segment on the prior terminal frame. Point the runtime at both local converted
+packages:
+
+```bash
+export DREAMVERSE_MODEL_ID=cosmos25-dfd
+export DREAMVERSE_MODEL_PATH=/path/to/Cosmos-Predict2.5-2B-Distilled-TrigFlow-FastVideo
+export DREAMVERSE_COSMOS25_DFD_MODEL_PATH=/path/to/Cosmos-Predict2.5-2B-DFD-FastVideo
+export ENABLE_TORCH_COMPILE=0
+dreamverse-server --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8009
+```
+
+The backend loads and warms both model roles before reporting ready. Both use
+BF16, Torch SDPA, 704x1280 output, 24 FPS, and four steps. Bootstrap segments
+contain 77 frames. DFD segments contain 81 decoded frames, but Dreamverse drops
+the repeated conditioning frame before streaming, leaving 80 new frames. An
+initial user image selects DFD immediately without treating that first frame as
+a cross-segment overlap.
+
+The profile uses a 30-minute session lease because sequential generation on
+GB10-class hardware can exceed Dreamverse's five-minute default while the GPU
+is still making progress. Deployments can override the lease with
+`FASTVIDEO_SESSION_TIMEOUT_SECONDS`.
+
+Cosmos does not produce audio, so the backend supplies duration-matched silent
+24 kHz audio for the existing browser streaming contract and trims 1,000 audio
+samples with each repeated DFD boundary frame. Runtime LoRA changes are not
+supported. Full segments take roughly 145 seconds on GB10, so this profile is a
+continuation-quality integration rather than a real-time configuration.

+# Dreamverse on Slurm
+
+Run Full H3 inside a one-node, four-GPU allocation. The maintained H3 examples
+default to four GPUs; this is a starting configuration, not a measured minimum.
+The full checkpoint supports T2VA, FL2VA, and Ref2VA. The FastH3 Preview profile
+is a separate T2VA configuration.
+
+`launch_backend.sh` checks that it is inside an `srun` step, preserves
+`CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES`, and replaces itself with the backend process. It does
+not allocate GPUs, kill existing processes, or source a personal credentials
+file. The local `dreamverse-deploy` helper is not suitable for a shared Slurm
+cluster because it kills processes by physical GPU and port.
+
+## Prepare and allocate
+
+Keep the checkout, weights, outputs, and logs on storage visible to the compute
+node. Source installation is documented in the [GPU guide](../../../../docs/getting_started/installation/gpu.md).
+On ARM64 GB200 use CUDA 13, a matching PyTorch build, and kernels built for
+`sm_100`; the DGX Spark `sm_121` kernel image is not the GB200 image.
+
+The repository's image workflow publishes an ARM64 GB200 variant under
+`ghcr.io/hao-ai-lab/fastvideo/fastvideo-dev:py3.12-cuda13.0.0-sm100-latest`.
+Resolve that tag to a digest for reproducible runs. If your compute nodes use
+Pyxis/Enroot, pass the approved image or a prepared SquashFS file to
+`srun --container-image`, with explicit mounts for your checkout and model cache.
+The Dreamverse-specific Docker images are currently AMD64-only.
+
+For the Slinky customer partition, a bounded allocation is:
+
+```bash
+salloc --account=customer --qos=normal --partition=hpc-rack-1 \
+  --nodes=1 --ntasks=1 --cpus-per-task=72 --gres=gpu:nvidia_gb200:4 \
+  --mem=800G --time=02:00:00 --job-name=dreamverse
+srun --ntasks=1 --pty bash
+```
+
+Wait for Slurm to grant the allocation before entering the compute step. A
+successful SSH login does not grant GPU resources. Inspect pending capacity
+with `squeue -u "$USER" --start`; do not attach to another user's job.
+
+The checkpoint includes duplicate release layouts. Download the diffusers
+components needed by both base and reference pipelines, rather than the whole
+repository (about 210 GB versus about 498 GB at revision
+`42ed227ee7df40d41602854ae760620d6eb651fe`):
+
+```bash
+hf download MiniMaxAI/MiniMax-H3 \
+  --revision 42ed227ee7df40d41602854ae760620d6eb651fe \
+  --include model_index.json --include modular_model_index.json \
+  --include 'audio_scheduler/*' --include 'audio_vae/*' \
+  --include 'processor/*' --include 'scheduler/*' \
+  --include 'text_encoder/*' --include 'tokenizer/*' \
+  --include 'transformer/*' --include 'transformer_ref/*' --include 'vae/*' \
+  --local-dir /path/to/models/MiniMax-H3
+```
+
+The GPU environment needs `fastvideo[dreamverse]`, the Dreamverse workspace
+package, and FFmpeg with H.264/AAC encoders. In a prepared FastVideo image,
+install the checked-out code and its Dreamverse dependencies in that image's
+Python environment. Keep its matching CUDA/PyTorch/kernel stack intact.
+
+## Start and connect
+
+From the checked-out repository inside the allocated step:
+
+```bash
+export DREAMVERSE_PYTHON=/path/to/environment/bin/python
+export DREAMVERSE_MODEL_PATH=/path/to/models/MiniMax-H3
+export FASTVIDEO_DREAMVERSE_HOME=/path/to/persistent/dreamverse-state
+bash apps/dreamverse/scripts/slurm/launch_backend.sh
+```
+
+The default backend binds port 8009 on the private compute node. Connect through
+the login node from your laptop, replacing `COMPUTE_NODE_IP` with the allocated
+node's `NodeAddr` from `scontrol show node`:
+
+```bash
+ssh -N -L 8009:COMPUTE_NODE_IP:8009 USER@LOGIN_NODE
+```
+
+In another laptop terminal, run the frontend from your local checkout:
+
+```bash
+cd apps/dreamverse/web
+BACKEND_HOST=127.0.0.1 BACKEND_PORT=8009 npm run dev
+```
+
+Open `http://localhost:5299`. `/healthz` reports the server process; `/readyz`
+reports model readiness. Full H3 loads and generates more slowly than the
+Preview adapter. Keep prompt enhancement disabled in the UI unless the
+runtime has the selected provider's credentials.
+
+## Verify and stop
+
+Check all three modes with small, valid user-owned assets. Capture the selected
+mode and assets, WebSocket errors or completion events, the generated video and
+audio, and GPU memory usage. Also verify actionable validation errors and
+backward compatibility with clients that omit `generation_mode`.
+
+Use the frontend Playwright instructions in the
+[Dreamverse development guide](../../../../docs/contributing/dreamverse-development.md)
+against the forwarded backend. A mock-server demo validates UI and protocol
+behavior; it is not evidence of GPU generation.
+
+Stop the backend with Ctrl-C, exit the compute step, and release your allocation.
+For a detached allocation, use `scancel YOUR_JOB_ID`. Cancel a pending demo job
+when it is no longer needed; do not leave an unattended reservation queued.
