Two articles surfaced during the v8 deploy + eval on 2026-04-25:
- Ollama: `ollama run` with piped stdin bypasses the chat template and
SYSTEM prompt — output looks like raw base-model completion. Caught
during initial v8 smoke test. Fix: use /api/chat HTTP endpoint.
- rsync over Tailscale can hang in TCP teardown after the data has
fully transferred. Verify with md5sum, then kill the hung pipeline.
Includes a watcher-threshold gotcha (set below true file size, not
above) and prevention tips.
