What llm-config does

This skill configures offline RuVLLM deployments through MCP tools. It checks runtime status and generates local model parameters. Training datasets are not used here.

Instead of full training runs, adapters update small in-process weights from numeric quality signals between 0.0 and 1.0. These adapters live strictly inside MCP server memory. A restart wipes them out immediately. You have to track returned IDs and recreate instances yourself.

Both adaptation tools fail if @ruvector/ruvllm-wasm is missing. When status checks return wasm.available: false, install the dependency via npm i -g @ruvector/ruvllm-wasm. This tooling cannot export adapter files or fine-tune hosted API models.

What it helps with

  • generate configuration parameters for RuVLLM local inference
  • spin up low-rank MicroLoRA adapters with rank settings from 1 to 4
  • set up SONA real-time adaptation instances with custom hidden dimensions
  • adjust in-memory weights using numeric quality feedback scores

Example prompts for the agent

  • Check RuVLLM status and generate a configuration for my local model
  • Create a MicroLoRA adapter with rank 2 and input dimension 1024
  • Pass a quality score of 0.85 to update the SONA adapter instance sona_1

Questions about llm-config

How to install llm-config in Claude Code?

Run npx skills add ruvnet/ruflo --skill llm-config -a claude-code. This installs the skill file into ~/.claude/skills/llm-config/SKILL.md.

What does llm-config do?

It prepares RuVLLM configs and manages runtime MicroLoRA and SONA adapters that adjust in memory via feedback scores.

Does llm-config save adapter checkpoints to disk?

No. MicroLoRA and SONA instances reside in MCP server RAM and reset whenever the process restarts.

# LLM Configuration

Configure RuVLLM for local inference and fine-tuning.

## When to use

When you need to configure local LLM inference, create MicroLoRA adapters for task-specific fine-tuning, or set up SONA for real-time adaptation.

## Steps

1. **Check status** — call `mcp__plugin_ruflo-core_ruflo__ruvllm_status` to see current model and adapter state. If `wasm.available` is `false`, install the add-on first (`npm i -g @ruvector/ruvllm-wasm`, or without `-g` in a project) — the MicroLoRA and SONA tools cannot run without it
2. **Generate config** — call `mcp__plugin_ruflo-core_ruflo__ruvllm_generate_config` with model parameters
3. **Create MicroLoRA** — call `mcp__plugin_ruflo-core_ruflo__ruvllm_microlora_create` with `inputDim`, `outputDim`, `rank` (1-4, default 2) and `alpha`
4. **Adapt MicroLoRA** — call `mcp__plugin_ruflo-core_ruflo__ruvllm_microlora_adapt` with `loraId` and a `quality` signal (0.0-1.0), optional `learningRate` and `success`. It takes a feedback score, not a training set
5. **Create SONA** — call `mcp__plugin_ruflo-core_ruflo__ruvllm_sona_create` with `hiddenDim` (default 64), `learningRate` and `patternCapacity`
6. **Adapt SONA** — call `mcp__plugin_ruflo-core_ruflo__ruvllm_sona_adapt` with `sonaId` and a `quality` signal (0.0-1.0)

## MicroLoRA vs SONA

| Feature | MicroLoRA | SONA |
|---------|-----------|------|
| What it is | Ultra-light LoRA adapter, rank 1-4 | Instant adaptation loop (the tool describes <1ms cycles) |
| Input | `quality` feedback per call | `quality` feedback per call |
| Persistence | None: instances live in the MCP server's memory and are lost on restart | None: same |

Neither tool fine-tunes a hosted model or writes adapter files; both adjust small in-process weights from quality scores. Keep the returned `loraId` / `sonaId` for later calls, and re-create them after a restart. For the repo's measured SONA latency see `docs/reviews/intelligence-system-audit-2026-05-29.md`.
