Summary

  • Root cause (seal-miss):finish_measure always vault.removed the miner Lium key, including on measure Err. Auto-retry then requeued without a key → intermittent miner Lium API key missing after full ~6h trains (prod: 551dc11f, 09376f63, fc1385d8 — first error was harness/exec; subsequent auto-retries were key-missing).
  • Fix: keep BYOK seal on measure Err until metrics succeed; fail-closed refresh before measure; do not auto-retry harness EVAL_FAIL.
  • GPU fairness: hard-pin 1× RTX 5090 at rent (no 4090/A100/H100 fallback); reject non-pin after rent / nvidia-smi; always fill gpu_type in metrics. Prod log for 392c7eef rented 4090 after 5090 offers failed — that path is now closed.
  • Docs:/retry vs re-POST already-queued; X-Lium-Api-Key required for infra recovery.

Test plan

  • cargo test -p prism-lium-types -p prism-lium-payer --lib
  • cargo test -p prism-lium --lib provision_
  • cargo test -p prism-orphan --lib
  • Promote digest to prod; confirm no lium rent lines for 4090/A100
  • Admin gating reset for seal-miss victims; re-issue/terminate non-5090 mid-flight (392c7eef) if still on 4090

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Live evaluations now require exactly one RTX 5090 GPU; incompatible or multi-GPU rentals are rejected.
    • Retry guidance distinguishes safe duplicate submissions from recovery retries and required credentials.
    • Failed infrastructure evaluations can be retried within the recovery window.
  • Bug Fixes

    • Terminal evaluation failures no longer consume automatic retries.
    • Failed measurements preserve recovery credentials for subsequent retries.
    • GPU metadata is retained when resuming or polling evaluations.
    • Credential refresh failures now fail safely when fallback is unavailable.
  • Documentation

    • Updated retry, provisioning, and troubleshooting guidance.

Auto-retry was wiping the miner Lium key in finish_measure before requeue,
so full-train failures surfaced as intermittent "API key missing". Keep the
vault until metrics succeed, fail-closed refresh before measure, and reject
non-5090 / multi-GPU rents for ranking fairness (no silent score normalize).

Warning

Review limit reached

@echobt, you've reached your PR review limit, so we couldn't start this review.

Next review available in:45 minutes

You've used all free OSS reviews for now. Wait for the free limit to reset to keep reviewing this public repository.

How can I continue?

After more reviews become available, a review can be triggered using the @coderabbitai review command as a PR comment. Alternatively, push new commits to this PR.

To avoid repeated limits, reduce automatic review volume by pausing incremental auto-reviews earlier, using label-based review opt-in, excluding WIP or generated PR titles, or requesting reviews manually when the PR is ready. If your team needs uninterrupted high-volume reviews, an organization admin can enable usage-based reviews.

How do review limits work?

CodeRabbit enforces per-developer PR review limits for each organization. Most developers receive the normal plan review availability.

For paid Pro and Pro+ PR reviews, CodeRabbit uses adaptive limits for sustained high-volume activity. When a developer's recent PR review activity reaches the 95th percentile or higher among CodeRabbit users, additional reviews become available more gradually as earlier reviews age out of the rolling window.

Please refer docs for additional details.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

PRISM now pins live evaluations and provisioning to one RTX 5090. Measurement failures marked EVAL_FAIL become terminal. BYOK state remains available after execution errors. Retry responses now distinguish failed-row recovery from idempotent reposts and require Lium credentials when needed.

Changes

PRISM execution reliability

Layer / File(s)Summary
RTX 5090 pinning and evaluation validation
crates/prism-lium-types/src/types.rs, crates/prism-lium/src/client.rs, docs/PRISM.md
PRISM now provisions and evaluates only matching RTX 5090 instances. Non-matching rentals are terminated, and missing result GPU metadata is populated from detection.
Terminal failures and BYOK vault lifecycle
crates/prism-challenge/src/orchestrator.rs, crates/prism-orphan/src/terminal.rs, docs/PRISM.md
EVAL_FAIL results become terminal. Failed vault refreshes fail closed without operator fallback. Measurement errors retain the payer vault entry for recovery.
Retry authentication and operator guidance
crates/prism-challenge/src/api.rs, docs/external-miner/prism.md, docs/external-miner/troubleshoot.md
Retry responses and guidance distinguish idempotent reposts, failed-row recovery, required Lium credentials, and terminal failures.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~25 minutes

Merge Risk:🟡 Moderate · up to e8c5a

The PR improves retry handling and GPU selection, but the current head still permits GPU variants or multi-GPU hosts, can retain a BYOK credential after terminal failure, and contains inaccurate retry documentation. These bounded correctness, credential-retention, and operational-guidance risks should be fixed or explicitly accepted before merging.

Run the required end-to-end and CI checks before merge.

For this retry change, verify intake, failure probes, challenge-specific validation, leaf emission, raw weight submission, sealing, and confirmation of sealed: true. Process health checks alone are not sufficient.

Also run formatting, Clippy with warnings denied, tests, cargo deny, and the required xtask checks.

As per coding guidelines, challenge verification must simulate an end-to-end submission, and the CI-equivalent gates must run before merging.

Remove the BYOK vault entry after terminal EVAL_FAIL.

EVAL_FAIL cannot retry, but finish_measure retains its miner Lium credential because it retains entries for every measurement error. Remove the entry in the terminal branch, while retaining it for recoverable infrastructure failures.

  • crates/prism-challenge/src/orchestrator.rs#L382-L395: remove the payer-vault entry after fail_terminal handles EVAL_FAIL.
  • crates/prism-orphan/src/terminal.rs#L134-L139: keep the generic retain-on-error behavior only for failures that can retry.
  • docs/PRISM.md#L82-L84: state that vault retention applies to recoverable measurement errors, not terminal EVAL_FAIL.

As per coding guidelines, treat normative documentation—including architecture files, frozen specifications, threat and operator-security documents, completeness status, runbooks, and external-miner/—as the source of truth for contracts, operations, and status.

Add the missing Result column to the retry table.

The header and separator define three columns, but each changed row contains four cells. MD056 reports this mismatch. Renderers can omit or misalign the result guidance.

Align the invalid-key response claim with the handler.

The retry handler checks only for a non-empty key. A wrong non-empty key can pass normalization, reset the failed row, and return 202. Document only missing or unparseable keys, or validate the key before reset_for_retry.
