+
+## Project Overview
+
+exo is a distributed AI inference system that connects multiple devices into a cluster. It enables running large language models across multiple machines using MLX as the inference backend and libp2p for peer-to-peer networking.
+
+## Build & Run Commands
+
+```bash
+# Build the dashboard (required before running exo)
+cd dashboard && npm install && npm run build && cd ..
+
+# Run exo (starts both master and worker with API at http://localhost:52415)
+uv run exo
+
+# Run with verbose logging
+uv run exo -v   # or -vv for more verbose
+
+# Run tests (excludes slow tests by default)
+uv run pytest
+
+# Run all tests including slow tests
+uv run pytest -m ""
+
+# Run a specific test file
+uv run pytest src/exo/shared/tests/test_election.py
+
+# Run a specific test function
+uv run pytest src/exo/shared/tests/test_election.py::test_function_name
+
+# Type checking (strict mode)
+uv run basedpyright
+
+# Linting
+uv run ruff check
+
+# Format code (using nix)
+nix fmt
+```
+
+## Architecture
+
+### Node Composition
+A single exo `Node` (src/exo/main.py) runs multiple components:
+- **Router**: libp2p-based pub/sub messaging via Rust bindings (exo_pyo3_bindings)
+- **Worker**: Handles inference tasks, downloads models, manages runner processes
+- **Master**: Coordinates cluster state, places model instances across nodes
+- **Election**: Bully algorithm for master election
+- **API**: FastAPI server for OpenAI-compatible chat completions
+
+### Message Flow
+Components communicate via typed pub/sub topics (src/exo/routing/topics.py):
+- `GLOBAL_EVENTS`: Master broadcasts indexed events to all workers
+- `LOCAL_EVENTS`: Workers send events to master for indexing
+- `COMMANDS`: Workers/API send commands to master
+- `ELECTION_MESSAGES`: Election protocol messages
+- `CONNECTION_MESSAGES`: libp2p connection updates
+
+### Event Sourcing
+The system uses event sourcing for state management:
+- `State` (src/exo/shared/types/state.py): Immutable state object
+- `apply()` (src/exo/shared/apply.py): Pure function that applies events to state
+- Master indexes events and broadcasts; workers apply indexed events
+
+### Key Type Hierarchy
+- `src/exo/shared/types/`: Pydantic models for all shared types
+  - `events.py`: Event types (discriminated union)
+  - `commands.py`: Command types
+  - `tasks.py`: Task types for worker execution
+  - `state.py`: Cluster state model
+
+### Rust Components
+Rust code in `rust/` provides:
+- `networking`: libp2p networking (gossipsub, peer discovery)
+- `exo_pyo3_bindings`: PyO3 bindings exposing Rust to Python
+- `system_custodian`: System-level operations
+
+### Dashboard
+Svelte 5 + TypeScript frontend in `dashboard/`. Build output goes to `dashboard/build/` and is served by the API.
+
+## Code Style Requirements
+
+From .cursorrules:
+- Strict, exhaustive typing - never bypass the type-checker
+- Use `Literal[...]` for enum-like sets, `typing.NewType` for primitives
+- Pydantic models with `frozen=True` and `strict=True`
+- Pure functions with injectable effect handlers for side-effects
+- Descriptive names - no abbreviations or 3-letter acronyms
+- Catch exceptions only where you can handle them meaningfully
+- Use `@final` and immutability wherever applicable
+
+## Testing
+
+Tests use pytest-asyncio with `asyncio_mode = "auto"`. Tests are in `tests/` subdirectories alongside the code they test. The `EXO_TESTS=1` env var is set during tests.

+[X] Log EXO_LIBP2P_NAMESPACE on start in exo/main.py
+[X] Ordering of warmup was changed, which is wrong. It was changed to rank < n-1, then rank=n-1. It should be rank!=0 then rank=0 (this matches the auto_parallel implementation. NOTE: we use a different convention to mlx-lm, our terminal rank is rank=n-1 whereas mlx-lm is rank=0 hence i can see why this was changed wrongly).
+[X] Downloads keying by model_id not shard_metadata (worker/plan.py, worker/main.py).
+[X] Fetching download status of all models on start
+[X] Deduplication of tasks in plan_step.
+[X] resolve_allow_patterns should just be wildcard now.
+[] no mx_barrier in genreate.py mlx_generate at the end.
+[] cache assertion not needed in auto_parallel.py PipelineLastLayer.

+[] same as above with "sharded-to-all" became _sharded_to_all in auto_parallel.py.
+[] Dropped support for Ministral3Model, DeepseekV32Model, Glm4MoeModel, Qwen3NextModel, GptOssMode in auto_parallel.py.
+[] Dropped prefill/decode code in auto_parallel.py and utils_mlx.py.
+[X] KV_CACHE_BITS should be None to disable quantized KV cache.
+[] Dropped _set_nofile_limit in utils_mlx.py.
+[] We have group optional in load_mlx_items in utils_mlx.py.
+[] Dropped add_missing_chat_templates for GptOss in load_mlx_items in utils_mlx.py.
+[] Dropped model.make_cache in make_kv_cache in utils_mlx.py.
+[X] We put cache limit back in utils_mlx.py.
+[] topology.py remove_node removes the connections after checking if node is is in self._node_id_to_rx_id_map. on beta_1 it checks after, so would remove stale connections I guess?
+[] Missing Glm 4.7 model cards (this isn't ready yet but should be picked up, probably create an issue... the blocker is transforemrs version doesn't support the tokenizer for Glm 4.7. rc-1 does but we can't upgrade as it breaks other things.)
+[] try-except in _command_processor only excepts ValueError. This was silently failing leading to un-debuggable errors (we had a KeyError that was happening ). Changed this to catch Exception instead of ValueError. See exo-v2 89ae38405e0052e3c22405daf094b065878aa873 and fb99fea69b5a39017efc90c5dad0072e677455f0.

+[X] In placement.py, place_instanec, we no longer have the special case to exclude DeepSeek v3.1 pipeline parallel (it doesn't work).
+[] logger.warning("You have likely selected ibv for a single node instance; falling back to MlxRing") was changed to debug. That will spam this warning since it happens every time we query instance previews.
+[X] In placement_utils.py, get_mlx_jaccl_coordinators, We no longer prioritise Jaccl Coordinator IP. Now it picks the first one, which is unstable (Jaccl coordinator over TB5 is unstable).

 The app will ask for permission to modify system settings and install a new Network profile. Improvements to this are being worked on.
 
+#### Uninstalling the macOS App
+
+The recommended way to uninstall is through the app itself: click the menu bar icon → Advanced → Uninstall. This cleanly removes all system components.
+
+If you've already deleted the app, you can run the standalone uninstaller script:
+
+```bash
+sudo ./app/EXO/uninstall-exo.sh
+```
+
+This removes:
+- Network setup LaunchDaemon
+- Network configuration script
+- Log files
+- The "exo" network location
+
+**Note:** You'll need to manually remove EXO from Login Items in System Settings → General → Login Items.

+# EXO API – Technical Reference
+
+This document describes the REST API exposed by the **EXO ** service, as implemented in:
+
+`src/exo/master/api.py`
+
+The API is used to manage model instances in the cluster, inspect cluster state, and perform inference using an OpenAI-compatible interface.
+
+Base URL example:
+
+```
+http://localhost:52415
+```
+
+## 1. General / Meta Endpoints
+
+### Get Master Node ID
+
+**GET** `/node_id`
+
+Returns the identifier of the current master node.
+
+**Response (example):**
+
+```json
+{
+  "node_id": "node-1234"
+}
+```
+
+### Get Cluster State
+
+**GET** `/state`
+
+Returns the current state of the cluster, including nodes and active instances.
+
+**Response:**
+JSON object describing topology, nodes, and instances.
+
+### Get Events
+
+**GET** `/events`
+
+Returns the list of internal events recorded by the master (mainly for debugging and observability).
+
+**Response:**
+Array of event objects.
+
+## 2. Model Instance Management
+
+### Create Instance
+
+**POST** `/instance`
+
+Creates a new model instance in the cluster.
+
+**Request body (example):**
+
+```json
+{
+  "instance": {
+    "model_id": "llama-3.2-1b",
+    "placement": { }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**Response:**
+JSON description of the created instance.
+
+### Delete Instance
+
+**DELETE** `/instance/{instance_id}`
+
+Deletes an existing instance by ID.
+
+**Path parameters:**
+
+* `instance_id`: string, ID of the instance to delete
+
+**Response:**
+Status / confirmation JSON.
+
+### Get Instance
+
+**GET** `/instance/{instance_id}`
+
+Returns details of a specific instance.
+
+**Path parameters:**
+
+* `instance_id`: string
+
+**Response:**
+JSON description of the instance.
+
+### Preview Placements
+
+**GET** `/instance/previews?model_id=...`
+
+Returns possible placement previews for a given model.
+
+**Query parameters:**
+
+* `model_id`: string, required
+
+**Response:**
+Array of placement preview objects.
+
+### Compute Placement
+
+**GET** `/instance/placement`
+
+Computes a placement for a potential instance without creating it.
+
+**Query parameters (typical):**
+
+* `model_id`: string
+* `sharding`: string or config
+* `instance_meta`: JSON-encoded metadata
+* `min_nodes`: integer
+
+**Response:**
+JSON object describing the proposed placement / instance configuration.
+
+### Place Instance (Dry Operation)
+
+**POST** `/place_instance`
+
+Performs a placement operation for an instance (planning step), without necessarily creating it.
+
+**Request body:**
+JSON describing the instance to be placed.
+
+**Response:**
+Placement result.
+
+## 3. Models
+
+### List Models
+
+**GET** `/models`
+**GET** `/v1/models` (alias)
+
+Returns the list of available models and their metadata.
+
+**Response:**
+Array of model descriptors.
+
+## 4. Inference / Chat Completions
+
+### OpenAI-Compatible Chat Completions
+
+**POST** `/v1/chat/completions`
+
+Executes a chat completion request using an OpenAI-compatible schema. Supports streaming and non-streaming modes.
+
+**Request body (example):**
+
+```json
+{
+  "model": "llama-3.2-1b",
+  "messages": [
+    { "role": "system", "content": "You are a helpful assistant." },
+    { "role": "user", "content": "Hello" }
+  ],
+  "stream": false
+}
+```
+
+**Response:**
+OpenAI-compatible chat completion response.
+
+### Benchmarked Chat Completions
+
+**POST** `/bench/chat/completions`
+
+Same as `/v1/chat/completions`, but also returns performance and generation statistics.
+
+**Request body:**
+Same schema as `/v1/chat/completions`.
+
+**Response:**
+Chat completion plus benchmarking metrics.
+
+## 5. Complete Endpoint Summary
+
+```
+GET     /node_id
+GET     /state
+GET     /events
+
+POST    /instance
+GET     /instance/{instance_id}
+DELETE  /instance/{instance_id}
+
+GET     /instance/previews
+GET     /instance/placement
+POST    /place_instance
+
+GET     /models
+GET     /v1/models
+
+POST    /v1/chat/completions
+POST    /bench/chat/completions
+```
+
+## 6. Notes
+
+* The `/v1/chat/completions` endpoint is compatible with the OpenAI API format, so existing OpenAI clients can be pointed to EXO by changing the base URL.
+* The instance placement endpoints allow you to plan and preview cluster allocations before actually creating instances.
+* The `/events` and `/state` endpoints are primarily intended for operational visibility and debugging.

-//! This crate defines the logic of, and ways to interact with, Exo's **_System Custodian_** daemon.
-//!
-//! The **_System Custodian_** daemon is supposed to be a long-living process that precedes the
-//! launch of the Exo application, and responsible for ensuring the system (configuration, settings,
-//! etc.) is in an appropriate state to facilitate the running of Exo application.
-//! The **_System Custodian_** daemon shall expose a [D-Bus](https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/dbus/)
-//! service which Exo application use to _control & query_ it.
-//!
-//! # Lifecycle
-//! When the Exo application starts, it will _wake_ the **_System Custodian_** daemon for the
-//! duration of its lifetime, and after it has terminated the daemon will go back to sleep. When
-//! the daemon wakes up, it will configure the system into a state suitable for the Exo Application;
-//! When the daemon goes to sleep, it will revert those changes as much as it can in case they were
-//! destructive to the user's pre-existing configurations.
-//!
-//! # Responsibilities
-//! TODO: these are purely on MacOS, but change to be more broad
-//! The **_System Custodian_** daemon is responsible for using System Configuration framework to
-//!  1. duplicate the current network set
-//!  2. modify existing services to turn on IPv6 if not there
-//!  3. remove any bridge services & add any missing services that AREN'T bridge
-//! TODO: In the future:
-//!  1. run a dummy AWDL service to [allow for macOS peer-to-peer wireless networking](https://yggdrasil-network.github.io/2019/08/19/awdl.html)
-//!  2. toggle some GPU/memory configurations to speed up GPU (ask Alex what those configurations are)
-//!  3. if we ever decide to provide our **own network interfaces** that abstract over some userland
-//!     logic, this would be the place to spin that up.
-//!
-//! Then it will watch the SCDynamicStore for:
-//!  1. all __actual__ network interfaces -> collect information on them e.g. their BSD name, MAC
-//!     address, MTU, IPv6 addresses, etc. -> and set up watchers/notifiers to inform the DBus
-//!     interface of any changes
-//!  2. watch for any __undesirable__ changes to configuration and revert it
-//!
-//! It should somehow (probably through system sockets and/or BSD interface) trigger IPv6 NDP on
-//! each of the interfaces & also listen to/query for any changes on the OS routing cache??
-//! Basically emulate the `ping6 ff02::1%enX` and `ndp -an` commands BUT BETTER!!!
-//!  1. all that info should coalesce back to the overall state colleted -> should be queryable
-//!     over D-Bus
-//! TODO:
-//!  1. we might potentially add to this step a handshake of some kind...? To ensure that we can
-//!     ACTUALLY communicate with that machine over that link over e.g. TCP, UDP, etc. Will the
-//!     handshake require to know Node ID? Will the handshake require heartbeats? Who knows...
-//!  2. if we ever decide to write proprietary L2/L3 protocols for quicker communication,
-//!     e.g. [AF_NDRV](https://www.zerotier.com/blog/how-zerotier-eliminated-kernel-extensions-on-macos/)
-//!     for raw ethernet frame communication, or even a [custom thunderbolt PCIe driver](https://developer.apple.com/documentation/pcidriverkit/creating-custom-pcie-drivers-for-thunderbolt-devices),
-//!     then this would be the place to carry out discovery and propper handshakes with devices
-//!     on the other end of the link.
