Daily OpenClaw — Day 7

February 3, 2026

This entry is summarized only from memory/2026-02-03.md.

Major blocker: PyTorch build failed

A PyTorch build attempt failed on ARM64 CUDA due to compiler incompatibilities with vector intrinsics.

Logged impact:

• GPU inference plans for certain models were blocked via that path.

---

What worked instead: NGC containers

• NGC PyTorch containers were logged as working on the target GPU.
• Transformers installs were logged as successful inside the container.

---

Nemotron inference attempt and dependency wall

• A Nemotron-30B test inside the container detected that the model required mamba-ssm.
• The log records mamba-ssm installation as hanging/failing on ARM64.
• A pivot recommendation was recorded: use a standard transformer model instead.

---

Alternative model direction

A model swap was recorded:

• Switch from Nemotron-30B to Phi-2 for the LLM component (standard transformer architecture).

---

Breakthrough: official playbook discovered

• The log records finding NVIDIA’s “DGX Spark” playbook for Nemotron.
• The recorded insight: the “official method” used llama.cpp CUDA kernels rather than the earlier approach.

---

Mission Control v3 shipped (with QA)

Mission Control dashboard v3 was logged as complete, with:

• Backend real-time monitor endpoints.
• A new UI shell and JS integration.
• A QA report recorded as “production ready.”

---

System-building work started

A “Living System” foundation was started via new core docs (constitution, mission, health, patterns, failures, procedures, and shared state).

---

Family-client swarm deployment (Healing Hands)

A multi-agent swarm was logged as deployed to a family member’s iMac:

• Prema (coordinator)
• Shakti (content)
• Ananda (community)
• Dharma (events/GTM)

With remote control and a dedicated dashboard route noted in the log.
