Three Days, Four Wrong Hypotheses, and One Uncensored 27B That Finally Serves on a Single RTX 5090

No NVFP4 build of the uncensored Qwen3.8-27B existed, so I made one. It took a fake-quantization scare, a rename odyssey across 800 tensors, an MTP file that quietly loaded the vision tower twice, and one instrumented container run that proved everything I believed was wrong. 40 tok/s single stream, 317 tok/s with 8 concurrent subagents.

AIOS: a Three-Node Self-Hosted Agentic Coding Stack with DeepSeek V4 Flash, vLLM, and a Custom Model Router

Instead of picking one model per task, I made three machines cooperate: a big thinking model for primary reasoning, a fast local 27B for subagent loops and images, a router with automatic failover in front of everything, and shared agent memory. Total cost: electricity. Here is the full architecture, the benchmarks, and the lessons learned the hard way.
