@@ -73,6 +73,7 @@ Top-level keys, in this order:
   - `precision_hardware` (optional, variant-level) — overrides the default hardware constraint implied by `precision`, using `{ brand?, generation? }`. Use only for exceptional checkpoints whose runtime fallback expands compatibility beyond the stored format, such as NVFP4 weights that vLLM dequantizes to BF16 on Hopper. Pair it with `supported_hardware` when only specific GPU profiles are documented.
 - `compatible_strategies[]` — subset of the serving strategy ids. Dense models typically only get `single_node_tp` + `multi_node_tp`; MoE models can have every serving strategy. Do NOT list `kv_store_*_mooncake` ids here — KV-offload options (Simple + both Mooncake modes) are implicit on every non-omni recipe and feed the "KV Offload" row, not the Strategy row.
 - `strategy_min_gpus` (optional) — minimum GPUs a strategy needs **for this model**. Either a bare number (one bar for every strategy) or a map keyed by strategy id (`{ multi_node_dep: 16, multi_node_tp: 8 }`) so one parallelism can demand more than another — e.g. Kimi-K3 runs TP/TEP from 8 GPUs but needs 16 for DEP. The map takes a second, disjoint keyspace: an **exact GPU id** (`h100: 32`, or nested per-strategy `h100: { multi_node_dep: 32 }`) layering a hardware-conditional floor on top of the strategy bars, **highest wins**. Use it when one GPU needs a bigger cluster than the recipe baseline — K3's ~1.68 TB of weights fits 2 H200 nodes but needs 4 on H100, so `h100: 32`, which also drops `single_node_tp` from the H100 pill row for free (8 GPUs can't clear a 32-GPU bar). Only exact GPU ids are read, never generations: GPUs of one generation differ in VRAM, which is exactly what moves the floor. Opt-in and fail-open: absent = no floor, so existing recipes are unaffected. A multi-node strategy stays offered and *grows the node count* to meet its bar when picked (the Nodes row gains the count that first clears it, e.g. 4 on a 4-GPU NVL tray); a single-node strategy can't scale, so it drops out when the floor exceeds one node's GPUs. Applies to PD pools too, keyed by pool parallelism (`tp`/`tep`/`dep` → the matching `multi_node_*` entry) — each pool is sized to its own floor. Helpers: `minGpusForStrategy` / `nodesForStrategy` / `isStrategyReachable` in `command-synthesis.js`, shared by the builder and the JSON API. Distinct from the (currently unread) `hardware_match.min_gpus` in `strategies/*.yaml`, which is a per-strategy structural minimum rather than a per-recipe one.
+- `default_strategy` / `default_strategy_hardware` (optional) — recommendation only; the Strategy row still offers every compatible strategy. `default_strategy` sets the recipe-wide recommended serving strategy. `default_strategy_hardware: { <gpu_id>: <strategy_id> }` overrides that recommendation for exact hardware ids (e.g. `dgx_station_gb300: single_node_tp`) and falls back to `default_strategy` when absent or invalid.
 - `kv_cache_strategy_hardware` (optional) — per-strategy/per-GPU opt-OUT for the Mooncake pills: `{ <kv_store_id>: { <gpu_id>: unsupported } }`. Follows the repo's fail-open hardware convention: absent = assumed to work (pill enabled on any scalable GPU); `unsupported` disables the pill and makes the JSON API skip that strategy on that hardware. "Off" and "Simple" need no gating (Simple is defined once in `taxonomy.yaml → kv_offload`).
 - `strategy_hardware` (optional) — the serving-Strategy-row analog of `kv_cache_strategy_hardware`: per-serving-strategy/per-GPU opt-OUT, `{ <strategy_id>: { <gpu_id>: unsupported } }`. Same fail-open convention (absent = works). `unsupported` renders the Strategy pill disabled with a tooltip, keeps it out of the recommended/active fallback, and makes the JSON API skip that strategy on that GPU. Use it when a strategy in `compatible_strategies` is genuinely unusable on a specific GPU (e.g. multi-node pure-TP on Hopper, which has no cross-node NVLink) — not for "untested". Helper: `isStrategySupported` in `CommandBuilder.jsx`.
 - `hardware_overrides` — optional per-generation tweaks keyed by `hopper`, `blackwell`, `amd`, or the brand-wide `nvidia`. Generation-specific blocks take precedence over the NVIDIA fallback. Each supplies `{ extra_args[], extra_env{} }`.
