- shard the Muon Newton-Schulz orthogonalization over the FSDP mesh instead of partial local slices
- import HF checkpoints faithfully: per-head RoPE permutation for q/k projections and qk-norm, qwen3, shared experts, and qk-norm before RoPE (changes numerics for existing use_qk_norm checkpoints)
- make preprocessing and resume self-contained: backfill realigned bucket keys by semantics (masks ones, rest zeros) and snapshot tokenizer files into every checkpoint
- keep RL consistent: sync the offline GRPO old_model each optimizer step and validate online strategies through a public one-off-rollout hook that leaves the replay cache untouched
- fix streaming serving: withhold partial tool-call prefixes with a stream-end flush, stream tool-call arguments from the raw source span, and terminate SSE frames with a blank line
- fix sampling semantics: capture logprobs before top-k/top-p mutate logits in place and detect greedy pipelines polymorphically instead of isinstance bookkeeping
- reject prompts that encode to zero tokens in add_task instead of admitting a task whose prefill can never run, and surface empty-id run_batch calls as prompt_empty errors
- deliver the STOP stream callback when cancelling a live task so clients observe termination instead of hanging until socket timeout
- strip the torch.compile _orig_mod. prefix at every unwrap_model site and when loading checkpoints so FSDP state dicts and saved weights no longer leak the wrapper name into downstream keys
- reject online_* train strategies with nprocs > 1 at config validation time, explaining the NCCL all-gather deadlock they would otherwise hit mid-run
- apply the frequency penalty before temperature scaling (OpenAI semantics) so the penalty survives temperature=0 instead of being annihilated by the 1e8 logit blowup, and exclude penalty pipelines from the greedy fast path
- return logprobs from the raw pre-strategy distribution so they match training-side policy logprobs for PPO/GRPO importance ratios
- Add broadcast_state_dict to sync state_dict from rank-0 to all ranks
- Fix create_ref_model returning None on non-rank-0 under FSDP
- Fix sync_old_model only updating old_model on rank-0 under FSDP
- Split skip_no_cuda/skip_no_kernel markers and hoist to top-level conftest
- Add distributed tests for broadcast_state_dict and create_ref_model
- Move create_ref_model from astrai/parallel/utils.py into executor.py
- Remove unused ColumnParallelLinear/RowParallelLinear (module.py)
- Update imports in strategy.py and train_context.py
- Drop unused astrai.parallel.utils and astrai.parallel.module
- unshard() and full_tensor() are collective ops, all ranks must participate
- Old code returned None on non-rank-0 before calling unshard, causing deadlock
- Fix: all ranks unshard/full_tensor, only rank-0 keeps the result
- Move create_ref_model to parallel/utils.py, accept executor+model directly
- Guard create_ref_model and sync_old_model against None on non-rank-0
- FSDP params are DTensors sharded across ranks
- torch.nn.utils.clip_grad_norm_ computes LOCAL norm only
- Each rank would clip by a different factor, causing gradient divergence
- Fix: compute local norm, all-reduce squared sum, sqrt for global norm
- Default reshard_after_forward=False (forward then backward makes reshard redundant)
- Reduces per-step time by ~19% (1033ms to 839ms on 2xL20)
- New FSDP2Executor registers as 'fsdp2' in ExecutorFactory, using per-module fully_shard() instead of FSDP1 FlatParameter wrapper
- FSDP2 preserves original Parameter objects as DTensors, eliminating use_orig_params=True hack
- FSDP2Executor implements _no_sync via set_requires_gradient_sync, clip_grad_norm via unshard, unwrap_model via DTensor.full_tensor
- Drop **_extra/**_ddp_only_kwargs fallbacks in BaseExecutor/FSDPExecutor/FSDP2Executor, replaced by parallel_mode-aware executor_kwargs dispatch in train.py (ddp-only kwargs only passed when parallel_mode=ddp)
- Export FSDP2Executor in astrai.parallel.__init__
- BaseExecutor.prepare now takes factories and instantiates model via model_fn(), runs before_wrap hook, wraps DDP/FSDP, then builds optimizer/scheduler on the wrapped model
- optimizer/scheduler creation moved into executor.prepare, eliminating the old 'create-then-wrap' hack reliance on use_orig_params=True
- FSDPExecutor/BaseExecutor accept **_extra kwargs to tolerate DDP-only keys (broadcast_buffers, gradient_as_bucket_view) being forwarded via executor_kwargs
- dataloader builds stay external; executor only handles model/optimizer/scheduler
- train_context.py rewritten to load checkpoint state_dict before prepare via a before_wrap closure
- Drop BaseStrategy.model_fn (stored but never read)
- Drop model_fn= passed to StrategyFactory.create in train_context
- Simplify FSDPExecutor.clip_grad_norm None branch to delegate to super()
- Remove DDPExecutor._gather_state_dict override (identical to base)
- TrainConfig.max_grad_norm defaults to None
- executor.clip_grad_norm returns grad norm without clipping when None
- train.py --max_grad_norm defaults to None
