Built-in questions
The Vela 3.0 family was trained on the Router's built-in questions, so the Router asks each one in its trained form; the support matrix lists which.
A rule without a predicate takes this model's calibrated threshold:
| Preset | Threshold |
|---|---|
jailbreak (jailbreak) | 0.88 |
domain (domain) | 0.41 |
pii (pii) | 0.18 |
fact check (fact_check) | 0.9999 |
user feedback (feedback) | 0.47 |
safety (harm) | 0.52 |
modality (modality) | 0.63 |
Hardware
Each time it loads, the model compares its answers with the reference answers recorded for its revision. They are recorded for:
- CPU (
cpu) - x86-64 CPU with AVX2 (BF16 emulated) (
cpu:x86_64:avx2:bf16_emulated)
Where a hardware reference and its device class's are both recorded, the hardware one is checked.
On an AMD GPU or an NVIDIA GPU no reference is recorded, so the model serves
there with its self-check reported as unverified.
Choose a model lists the validated hardware.
Quantization
The runtime loads no quantized packages of the Vela 3.0 family: it runs at its published precision.
Deploy it
Serve it on its own in Engine mode, to ask it directly:
- CPU
- AMD GPU
- NVIDIA GPU
vllm-sr serve vllm-sr/vela3-fast --engine --platform cpu
vllm-sr serve vllm-sr/vela3-fast --engine --platform rocm
vllm-sr serve vllm-sr/vela3-fast --engine --platform cuda
Or make it the Router's decision model:
global:
model_catalog:
deployments:
primary:
provider: model_runtime
artifact: vllm-sr/vela3-fast
device: auto
system:
decision_model: {deployment: primary}
device: auto takes the first validated GPU with enough free memory, else
the CPU; name rocm:0 or cuda:0 to pin a GPU.
To run it on another host and attach the Router to it:
vllm-srun serve vllm-sr/vela3-fast --device auto --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8100
Then set endpoint: http://<host>:8100 and
model: vela3-fast on the deployment; see
Attach to a runtime you run.
