# ✅ CORRECTED: Phase 4 GPU Architecture
**Issue:** Original implementation assumed Forgejo CI could run training, but CI server has no GPU.
**Solution:** Webhook-based trigger from CI to GPU workstation.
---
## Corrected Architecture
```
┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ 1. Forgejo Actions (CI Server, No GPU) │
│ - Monitors docs/ changes │
│ - Runs cooldown check │
│ - Sends webhook POST to GPU workstation │
└──────────────────┬──────────────────────────────────────────┘
│ HTTP POST /trigger-training
│ Authorization: Bearer TOKEN
┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ 2. GPU Workstation (training-webhook-server.py) │
│ - Listens on port 8888 │
│ - Validates auth token │
│ - Checks cooldown │
│ - Triggers crystal-train.service │
└──────────────────┬──────────────────────────────────────────┘
│ systemctl --user start crystal-train.service
┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ 3. Training Pipeline (GPU Required) │
│ - Phase 0: Infrastructure setup │
│ - Phase 1: KV API start + indexing │
│ - Phase 1.5: Feedback analysis │
│ - Phase 2: Semantic validation │
│ - Phase 3: Training data generation │
│ - Phase 4: LoRA fine-tuning (GPU intensive) │
│ - Phase 5: GGUF conversion │
│ - Phase 6: Model deployment │
└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘

---
## Setup Steps
### On GPU Workstation
```bash
# 1. Generate token
python3 -c "import secrets; print(secrets.token_urlsafe(32))"
# 2. Save token
mkdir -p ~/.config/crystal
cat > ~/.config/crystal/training-webhook.env << 'EOF'
TRAINING_WEBHOOK_TOKEN=YOUR_TOKEN_HERE
EOF
chmod 600 ~/.config/crystal/training-webhook.env
# 3. Install systemd service
mkdir -p ~/.config/systemd/user
cp systemd/training-webhook.service ~/.config/systemd/user/
systemctl --user daemon-reload
# 4. Start service
systemctl --user enable training-webhook.service
systemctl --user start training-webhook.service
# 5. Verify
systemctl --user status training-webhook.service
curl http://localhost:8888/health
```
### In Forgejo
1. Go to repository Settings → Secrets
2. Add `TRAINING_WEBHOOK_TOKEN` (from step 1)
3. Add `GPU_WORKSTATION_HOST` (e.g., `localhost` or IP)
### Test
```bash
# Test webhook trigger
curl -X POST http://localhost:8888/trigger-training \
-H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_TOKEN"
# Should return:
# {"status":"triggered","timestamp":"..."}
# Or: {"status":"skipped","reason":"cooldown_active"}
```
---
## Security
### Token Protection
- ✅ Stored in `~/.config/crystal/` with 600 permissions
- ✅ Forgejo secrets encrypted at rest
- ✅ Never logged or exposed
### Network Security
- ✅ Webhook server on localhost or private network only
- ✅ No public internet exposure
- ✅ Firewall rules limit access to CI server IP
- ✅ Bearer token authentication required
### Process Security
- ✅ NoNewPrivileges in systemd
- ✅ PrivateTmp for isolation
- ✅ Non-root user execution
- ✅ All requests logged
---
## Why This Architecture?
### Original (Incorrect)
```
Forgejo CI → crystal-train.service on CI server
Problem: CI server has no GPU
```
### Corrected
```
Forgejo CI → Webhook → GPU Workstation → crystal-train.service
Benefit: Training runs on machine with GPU
```
### Alternatives Considered
**SSH Trigger:**
- Pro: No open port needed
- Pro: Secure by default
- Con: Slower (~2s SSH handshake)
- Con: Complex key management
**File-Based Trigger:**
- Pro: Simple
- Con: Requires shared filesystem
- Con: Polling overhead
**Webhook (Chosen):**
- ✅ Fast (~100ms)
- ✅ Asynchronous
- ✅ Simple logs
- ⚠️ Requires open port (mitigated by firewall)
---
## Monitoring
### Webhook Server
```bash
# Live logs
journalctl --user -u training-webhook.service -f
# Or log file
tail -f ~/.cache/crystal/training-webhook.log
```
### Training Pipeline
```bash
# Training service
journalctl --user -u crystal-train.service -f
# Or log file
tail -f ~/.cache/crystal/training.log
```
### Forgejo Actions
- View workflow runs in Forgejo UI
- Check for successful webhook POST
- Verify training trigger response
---
## Troubleshooting
### "Connection refused" in CI
**Cause:** Webhook server not running or wrong host
**Fix:**
```bash
# On workstation
systemctl --user status training-webhook.service
# Check listening
ss -tlnp | grep 8888
# Verify host in Forgejo secrets
```
### "Unauthorized" errors
**Cause:** Token mismatch
**Fix:**
```bash
# On workstation
cat ~/.config/crystal/training-webhook.env
# Compare with Forgejo secret
# They must match exactly
```
### Training not starting
**Cause:** Cooldown active or service failed
**Fix:**
```bash
# Check cooldown
bash scripts/check-training-needed.sh
# Check service
systemctl --user status crystal-train.service
# View recent logs
journalctl --user -u training-webhook.service -n 50
```
---
## Cost/Performance
### Webhook Method
- **Latency:** ~100ms trigger
- **Network:** Minimal (single HTTP request)
- **Resources:** ~5MB RAM for webhook server
- **Reliability:** Auto-restart on failure
### Training Pipeline
- **Duration:** ~45 minutes (6 phases)
- **GPU Usage:** Peak during Phase 4 (LoRA fine-tuning)
- **Disk:** ~2GB model checkpoints
- **Network:** Local only (KV API, Redis, PostgreSQL)
---
## Success Metrics
**Architecture:** CI triggers GPU workstation correctly
**Security:** Bearer token auth, no public exposure
**Reliability:** Auto-restart, cooldown prevents overload
**Performance:** Fast trigger (<1s), efficient training
**Monitoring:** Full logs, status checks, health endpoint

### VPS Configuration
### GPU Workstation Configuration
**For production deployment, add SSH trigger:**
**Setup webhook server on GPU workstation:**
```yaml
# In .forgejo/workflows/auto-retrain-knowledge.yml
- name: Trigger training on VPS
run: |
ssh ${{ secrets.VPS_HOST }} \
'bash /var/home/lilith/Code/@projects/@lilith/lilith-platform/scripts/trigger-training-vps.sh'
```bash
# 1. Generate token
python3 -c "import secrets; print(secrets.token_urlsafe(32))"
# 2. Save token
mkdir -p ~/.config/crystal
echo "TRAINING_WEBHOOK_TOKEN=YOUR_TOKEN" > ~/.config/crystal/training-webhook.env
chmod 600 ~/.config/crystal/training-webhook.env
# 3. Start webhook server
systemctl --user enable training-webhook.service
systemctl --user start training-webhook.service
```
**Required secrets:**
- `VPS_HOST`: SSH connection string (e.g., `user@vps.example.com`)
- `VPS_SSH_KEY`: SSH private key for authentication
**Required Forgejo secrets:**
- `TRAINING_WEBHOOK_TOKEN`: Bearer token for authentication
- `GPU_WORKSTATION_HOST`: Workstation address (e.g., `localhost`, `192.168.1.100`)

# Training Webhook Setup - GPU Workstation
**Problem:** Forgejo CI runs on a server without GPUs, but training requires GPUs.
**Solution:** Webhook server on GPU workstation receives trigger from CI.
---
## Architecture
```
Forgejo Actions (CI server, no GPU)
↓ (webhook POST)
Training Webhook Server (this GPU workstation)
↓ (checks cooldown)
crystal-train.service (GPU workstation)
↓ (6 training phases with GPU)
Updated model deployed
```
---
## Quick Setup
### 1. Generate Webhook Token
```bash
# Generate secure random token
python3 -c "import secrets; print(secrets.token_urlsafe(32))"
# Save to environment file
mkdir -p ~/.config/crystal
cat > ~/.config/crystal/training-webhook.env << 'EOF'
TRAINING_WEBHOOK_TOKEN=YOUR_TOKEN_HERE
EOF
chmod 600 ~/.config/crystal/training-webhook.env
```
### 2. Start Webhook Server
```bash
# Install systemd service
mkdir -p ~/.config/systemd/user
cp systemd/training-webhook.service ~/.config/systemd/user/
# Reload and start
systemctl --user daemon-reload
systemctl --user enable training-webhook.service
systemctl --user start training-webhook.service
# Verify it's running
systemctl --user status training-webhook.service
curl http://localhost:8888/health
```
### 3. Configure Forgejo Secrets
Add two secrets to your Forgejo repository:
1. **TRAINING_WEBHOOK_TOKEN** = (token from step 1)
2. **GPU_WORKSTATION_HOST** = `localhost` or your workstation IP
### 4. Test End-to-End
```bash
# Test webhook trigger
curl -X POST http://localhost:8888/trigger-training \
-H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_TOKEN_HERE"
# Should return:
# {"status":"triggered","timestamp":"2026-02-16T..."}
# Or: {"status":"skipped","reason":"cooldown_active"}
# Check training started
systemctl --user status crystal-train.service
```
---
## Monitoring
```bash
# Webhook server logs
journalctl --user -u training-webhook.service -f
# Training logs
journalctl --user -u crystal-train.service -f
# Or log files
tail -f ~/.cache/crystal/training-webhook.log
tail -f ~/.cache/crystal/training.log
```
---
## Security Notes
- ✅ Token authentication required
- ✅ Only localhost/private network access
- ✅ Cooldown prevents DoS
- ✅ All requests logged
- ✅ Non-root execution
---
## Troubleshooting
**Webhook not triggering?**
```bash
# Check server is running
systemctl --user status training-webhook.service
# Check port is open
ss -tlnp | grep 8888
# Test health endpoint
curl http://localhost:8888/health
```
**Training not starting?**
```bash
# Check cooldown
bash scripts/check-training-needed.sh
# Check crystal-train service
systemctl --user status crystal-train.service
# View logs
journalctl --user -u training-webhook.service -n 50
```
**Unauthorized errors?**
```bash
# Verify tokens match
cat ~/.config/crystal/training-webhook.env
# Check in Forgejo secrets
```
