+# Editing Agent Instructions
+
+> Read this before modifying `AGENTS.md` or any guide it links to.
+
+## Token Budget Mindset
+
+`AGENTS.md` loads on every agent request; domain guides load on entry to a relevant area.
+Keep `AGENTS.md` under **200 lines** and each domain guide under **300 lines**.
+When a file exceeds its budget, split or prune — do not compress prose to fit.
+
+## When NOT to Add Content
+
+Before writing a new rule, ask whether it is actually needed:
+
+- **Agents already do it.** Test with a prompt first. If the agent behaves correctly without the rule, don't add it.
+- **One-off incident.** Prefer a code-level fix (lint rule, CI check, test assertion) over a new doc rule.
+- **Hardcoded paths.** File paths change; use "search for X" patterns instead.
+- **Upstream docs.** Don't reproduce pytest, ruff, or other tool docs — link to them.
+- **Contradicts an existing rule.** Search all linked guides before adding. If two rules conflict, consolidate into one.
+- **Already covered elsewhere.** Search `AGENTS.md` and every linked guide for overlapping guidance.
+
+If any of the above apply, **do not add the content**.
+
+## Where Content Belongs
+
+The goal is a lean `AGENTS.md` plus rich domain guides that teach agents what they can't learn from the code alone.
+
+| Scope | File |
+| ----- | ---- |
+| Project-wide invariants (contribution policy, env setup, test/lint commands, commit conventions) | `AGENTS.md` |
+| Area-specific knowledge (model patterns, format details, deprecation timelines) | Domain guide |
+
+**Rules of thumb:**
+
+- If it only matters for one area, put it in a domain guide.
+- If it matters for all areas, consider `AGENTS.md` — but first verify agents don't already do it.
+- Create a new domain guide when you have 5 or more non-obvious instructions sharing a coherent scope.
+
+## What Makes a Good Domain Guide
+
+Add what agents can't infer from the code or public docs: project-specific
+conventions that differ from standard patterns, correct approaches that require
+cross-file context, and fixes for repeated mistakes.
+Each entry should be short, specific, and actionable — e.g., which files to
+touch, what order to change them in, and which tests to run.
+
+## Keeping Docs Lean
+
+- Every addition should trigger review of surrounding content for stale or redundant items.
+- Prefer examples over explanations — a 3-line snippet beats a paragraph of prose.
+- Merge related bullets into one principle instead of listing variants.
+- Use `search for X` instead of hardcoded file paths.
+- PR references are fine in domain guides for traceability, but avoid them in `AGENTS.md`.
+
+## Anti-Patterns
+
+| Pattern | Problem |
+| ------- | ------- |
+| Reactive accumulation | Adding a rule per incident without pruning leads to bloat |
+| Copy-paste between guides | Duplicated content drifts apart; keep in one place, link from the other |
+| Imperative walls | Long DO NOT lists that agents skim past; consolidate into principles |
+| Config snapshots | Show the command to get the value, not the value itself |
+
+## Change Checklist
+
+Before submitting changes to any agent instruction file:
+
+- [ ] **Non-obvious?** Would an agent do the wrong thing without this rule?
+- [ ] **No conflicts?** Searched all linked guides for contradictions?
+- [ ] **Right file?** Project-wide goes in `AGENTS.md`, area-specific in a domain guide?
+- [ ] **Offset the addition?** Removed or consolidated something to compensate?
+- [ ] **Under budget?** `AGENTS.md` < 200 lines, domain guides < 300 lines?
+- [ ] **No hardcoded paths?** Uses "search for X" where paths may change?
+- [ ] **Tested?** Verified that an agent actually follows the new instruction?

+# Vision Encoder (ViT) CUDA Graphs
+
+The [CUDA Graphs](cuda_graphs.md) infrastructure in vLLM primarily targets the **decoder** (language model) forward pass. vLLM also supports capturing the **encoder** (vision transformer) forward pass as CUDA Graphs, independently from the decoder. This is based on <https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm/pull/35963>.
+
+!!! note
+    Encoder CUDA Graphs are orthogonal to decoder CUDA Graphs — both can be enabled simultaneously. Encoder graphs capture the vision encoder execution (e.g., ViT in Qwen3-VL), while decoder graphs capture the language model execution as described in the [CUDA Graphs design document](cuda_graphs.md).
+
+## Motivation
+
+Vision encoder inference incurs CUDA kernel launch overhead on the host side. The overhead is more significant when the batch size is small or image size is small.
+
+Encoder CUDA Graphs eliminate this overhead by pre-capturing the full encoder forward pass at multiple token budget levels during model initialization, then replaying the appropriate graph at runtime.
+
+## Design
+
+The encoder CUDA Graph system uses a **budget-based capture/replay** strategy, managed by [EncoderCudaGraphManager][vllm.v1.worker.gpu.mm.encoder_cudagraph.EncoderCudaGraphManager]. The system contains the following core components:
+
+* [EncoderCudaGraphManager][vllm.v1.worker.gpu.mm.encoder_cudagraph.EncoderCudaGraphManager]: orchestrates capture, replay, greedy packing, and data-parallel execution for encoder CUDA Graphs.
+* [SupportsEncoderCudaGraph][vllm.model_executor.models.interfaces.SupportsEncoderCudaGraph]: a runtime-checkable protocol that models implement to opt-in to encoder CUDA Graphs.
+* [BudgetGraphMetadata][vllm.v1.worker.gpu.mm.encoder_cudagraph.BudgetGraphMetadata]: holds the captured CUDA Graph and its associated I/O buffers for a single token budget level.
+
+### Budget-based graph capture
+
+Multiple CUDA Graphs are pre-captured at different **token budget** levels (e.g., `[2048, 4096, 8192, 13824]`). Each budget defines a fixed token capacity, and all budgets share the same maximum batch size (number of images). The `BudgetGraphMetadata` for each level stores the graph along with pre-allocated input, metadata, and output buffers:
+
+```python
+@dataclass
+class BudgetGraphMetadata:
+    token_budget: int
+    max_batch_size: int
+    graph: torch.cuda.CUDAGraph
+    input_buffer: torch.Tensor       # e.g. pixel_values
+    metadata_buffers: dict[str, torch.Tensor]  # e.g. embeddings, seq metadata
+    output_buffer: torch.Tensor      # encoder hidden states
+```
+
+Budgets are auto-generated as power-of-2 levels from a model-provided range via `get_encoder_cudagraph_budget_range()`, with the maximum budget always included even if it does not fall on a power-of-2 boundary. Budgets can also be explicitly specified by the user via `encoder_cudagraph_token_budgets` in `CompilationConfig`.
+
+### Greedy bin-packing at runtime
+
+When a batch of images arrives, the manager sorts images by output token count (smallest first) and greedily packs as many images as possible into each sub-batch while staying within the **largest** token budget and the maximum batch size. Once a sub-batch is finalized (the next image would overflow either constraint), the manager finds the **smallest** budget that fits the sub-batch's total tokens and replays the corresponding CUDA Graph. This repeats until the batch is exhausted. Images that exceed all budgets fall back to eager execution.
+
+For each graph replay:
+
+1. Zero the pre-allocated `input_buffer`, then copy input tensors (e.g., `pixel_values`) into it.
+2. Zero `metadata_buffers`, then slice-copy precomputed values (e.g., rotary embeddings, sequence metadata).
+3. Replay the CUDA Graph.
+4. Clone outputs from `output_buffer` (cloning is necessary since the buffer is reused across replays).
+
+### Data-parallel support
+
+When `mm_encoder_tp_mode="data"`, the manager distributes images across TP ranks using load-balanced assignment via `get_load_balance_assignment`, executes locally on each rank, then gathers results back in the original order via `tensor_model_parallel_all_gather`.
+
+## Model integration via `SupportsEncoderCudaGraph`
+
+Models opt-in to encoder CUDA Graphs by implementing the [SupportsEncoderCudaGraph][vllm.model_executor.models.interfaces.SupportsEncoderCudaGraph] protocol. This protocol encapsulates all model-specific logic so that the manager remains model-agnostic. The protocol defines the following methods:
+
+* `get_encoder_cudagraph_config()` — returns static configuration (supported modalities, input key, buffer keys, output hidden size).
+* `get_encoder_cudagraph_budget_range(vllm_config)` — returns `(min_budget, max_budget)` for auto-inference of token budgets.
+* `get_encoder_cudagraph_num_items(mm_kwargs)` — returns the number of items (e.g. images) in the batch.
+* `get_encoder_cudagraph_per_item_output_tokens(mm_kwargs)` — returns per-item output token counts, used for greedy packing.
+* `get_encoder_cudagraph_per_item_input_sizes(mm_kwargs)` — returns per-item input sizes (e.g. patch counts), used for DP load balancing.
+* `select_encoder_cudagraph_items(mm_kwargs, indices)` — extracts a sub-batch of items by index, used during greedy packing and DP sharding.
+* `prepare_encoder_cudagraph_capture_inputs(...)` — creates dummy inputs for graph capture.
+* `prepare_encoder_cudagraph_replay_buffers(...)` — computes new buffer values from actual batch inputs before replay.
+* `encoder_cudagraph_forward(...)` — forward pass using precomputed buffers (called during capture and replay).
+* `encoder_eager_forward(...)` — fallback eager forward when no graph fits.
+
+Currently supported: **Qwen3-VL** (see `vllm/model_executor/models/qwen3_vl.py`).
+
+!!! note
+    The `SupportsEncoderCudaGraph` protocol is designed to be model-agnostic. New vision encoder models can opt-in by implementing the protocol methods without modifying the manager.
+
+!!! note
+    Encoder CUDA Graphs have currently been tested with `--mm-encoder-attn-backend=FLASH_ATTN` and `--mm-encoder-attn-backend=FLASHINFER` on Blackwell GPUs.
+
+## Configuration
+
+Three fields in `CompilationConfig` control encoder CUDA Graphs:
+
+* `cudagraph_mm_encoder` (`bool`, default `False`) — enable CUDA Graph capture for multimodal encoder. When enabled, captures the full encoder forward as a CUDA Graph for each token budget level.
+* `encoder_cudagraph_token_budgets` (`list[int]`, default `[]`) — token budget levels for capture. If empty (default), auto-inferred from model architecture as power-of-2 levels. User-provided values override auto-inference.
+* `encoder_cudagraph_max_images_per_batch` (`int`, default `0`) — maximum number of images per batch during capture. If 0 (default), auto-inferred as `max_budget // min_budget`.
+
+## Usage guide
+
+Enable encoder CUDA Graphs via `compilation_config`:
+
+```bash
+vllm serve Qwen/Qwen3-VL-32B \
+  --compilation-config '{"cudagraph_mm_encoder": true}'
+```
+
+With explicit budgets:
+
+```bash
+vllm serve Qwen/Qwen3-VL-32B \
+  --compilation-config '{"cudagraph_mm_encoder": true, "encoder_cudagraph_token_budgets": [2048, 4096, 8192, 13824], "encoder_cudagraph_max_images_per_batch": 8}'
+```
+
+Python example:
+
+```python
+import vllm
+
+compilation_config = {
+    "cudagraph_mm_encoder": True,
+    # Optional: override auto-inferred budgets
+    # "encoder_cudagraph_token_budgets": [2048, 4096, 8192, 13824],
+    # "encoder_cudagraph_max_images_per_batch": 8,
+}
+
+model = vllm.LLM(
+    model="Qwen/Qwen3-VL-32B",
+    compilation_config=compilation_config,
+)
+```
+
+The manager tracks hit/miss statistics and logs them periodically. A "hit" means an image was processed via CUDA Graph replay; a "miss" means eager fallback (image exceeded all budgets).
+

+## Thinking Budget Control
+
+Some models, such as [Qwen3](https://qwen.readthedocs.io/en/latest/getting_started/quickstart.html#thinking-budget), [DeepSeek](https://www.alibabacloud.com/help/en/model-studio/deep-thinking), and [Nemotron3](https://huggingface.co/nvidia/NVIDIA-Nemotron-3-Nano-30B-A3B-BF16), support a thinking budget that limits the maximum number of tokens used for reasoning.
+
+Token counting starts from `think_start_str`. Once the reasoning token count reaches the configured `thinking_token_budget`, vLLM forces the model to produce `think_end_str`, effectively terminating the reasoning block.
+
+To use this feature:
+
+- `--reasoning-parser` enables reasoning extraction.
+- `--reasoning-config` defines the reasoning boundary tokens (e.g., `think_start_str`, `think_end_str`).
+- `thinking_token_budget` (a sampling parameter) sets the per-request reasoning token limit.
+
+If `thinking_token_budget` is not specified, no explicit reasoning limit is applied beyond normal generation constraints such as `max_tokens`.
+
+`--reasoning-config` accepts a JSON object corresponding to  
+[ReasoningConfig][vllm.config.ReasoningConfig] with the following fields:
+
+| Field             | Type           | Description                                      |
+|-------------------|----------------|--------------------------------------------------|
+| `think_start_str` | `str \| null`  | String that marks the start of reasoning content |
+| `think_end_str`   | `str \| null`  | String that marks the end of reasoning content   |
+
+!!! note
+    `think_end_str` can include a transition phrase before the think end token. For example, setting `think_end_str` to `"I have to give the solution based on the thinking directly now.</think>"` instructs the model to emit that phrase when the budget is exhausted, making the reasoning termination more natural.
+
+### Online Serving
+
+```bash
+vllm serve Qwen/Qwen3-0.6B \
+    --reasoning-parser qwen3 \
+    --reasoning-config '{"think_start_str": "<think>", "think_end_str": "I have to give the solution based on the thinking directly now.</think>"}'
+```
+
+Then make a request with `thinking_token_budget` to limit the reasoning tokens:
+
+```bash
+curl http://localhost:8000/v1/chat/completions \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{

+However, certain application scenarios still require specialized small language models to efficiently complete specific tasks.
+These models typically have the following characteristics:

 - They do not require content generation.
 - They only need to perform very limited functions, without requiring strong generalization, creativity, or high intelligence.
 - They demand extremely low latency and may operate on cost-constrained hardware.
 - Text-only models typically have fewer than 1 billion parameters, while multimodal models generally have fewer than 10 billion parameters.

-Although these models are relatively small in scale, they are still based on the Transformer architecture, similar or even identical to the most advanced large language models today. Many recently released pooling models are also fine-tuned from large language models, allowing them to benefit from the continuous improvements in large models. This architecture similarity enables them to reuse much of vLLM’s infrastructure. If compatible, we would be happy to help them leverage the latest features of vLLM as well.
