Month: 2025-10 — Portfolio: tt-metal (tenstorrent/tt-metal) Summary: Focused on strengthening CI/CD reliability and test coverage for tt-metal, enabling safer experimentation with larger Llama 8b model deployments on BH multicard demos. Delivered targeted CI workflow enhancements, expanded automated tests for TP=8 Llama 8b, and clarified model nomenclature by renaming RB to LB in vLLM CI. No distinct bug fixes documented this month; the work reduced risk, improved feedback loops, and set the stage for more rapid iterations on performance and stability.
