Background

The cohort-gated plan/apply implementation was removed before #1159, but its two pinned environment manifests and schema remained. They have no runtime consumer, do not satisfy the current explicit qualification-record interface, and incorrectly suggest that DevToolkit admits only listed TensorRT/CUDA combinations.

Exit Criteria

  • Remove the unused built-in cohort manifests and schema.
  • Remove stale CI impact references and documentation for the deleted architecture.
  • Preserve caller-owned toolchain catalogs, optional qualification sources, development images, and the composable DevToolkit interfaces.

Implementation

  • Deletes configs/environment-cohorts/ and removes its obsolete test-impact mapping.
  • Describes qualification as explicit caller-owned evidence rather than a built-in version allowlist.
  • Replaces the removed BuildSpec name in the source-build guide with TrtmcBuildRecipe and guards that example against regression.
  • No public interface, runtime, ABI, artifact, dependency, or model-family behavior changes.

Change categories

  • Model or runtime behavior
  • Public API
  • ABI
  • Bundle or artifact format
  • Dependencies
  • Documentation only
  • CI or developer tooling

Validation

  • Repository-wide search found no remaining runtime references to the deleted cohort path or legacy plan/apply types.

Hardware, Environment, and Revisions

  • Tested head: ced66b9c0ed8c0ebeeecc4c2e7dc065e1a35865f on the local Linux CPU environment.

Not Run / Remaining Gaps

  • GPU and Docker runtime validation were not run because this change removes unconsumed configuration and updates documentation/CI classification only.

Notes For Future Readers

  • JsonToolchainCatalog remains the artifact-discovery seam for versions absent from public indexes.
  • JsonQualificationSource remains an optional, caller-registered evidence adapter; DevToolkit loads no qualification dataset by default.

Risk level

  • Low
  • Medium
  • High

The deleted files had no runtime consumer, and current catalog and qualification modules remain unchanged and covered by their existing interface tests.

The cohort-gated planner no longer exists, and the retained manifests do not satisfy the explicit qualification interface. Remove the dead configuration and CI mapping, then align documentation with caller-owned qualification records and the current build recipe.

Review Change Stack

📝 Summary

Summary

Removes unused DevToolkit environment-cohort schemas, manifests, and CI impact mappings.

Updates documentation to:

  • Use TrtmcBuildRecipe instead of BuildSpec.
  • Treat qualification evidence as caller-owned.
  • Allow exact four-part TensorRT versions with optional qualification evidence.
  • Keep environment preparation independent of qualification presets.

Preserves caller-owned toolchain catalogs, optional qualification sources, development images, and composable DevToolkit interfaces. No public interface, runtime, ABI, artifact, dependency, or model-family changes are intended.

Validation covered targeted tests, pre-commit checks, and repository-wide stale-reference searches. GPU and Docker runtime validation were not run.

Architecture impact

  • Family-owned files: configs/environment-cohorts/ is no longer part of DevToolkit contract classification.
  • Changed shared surfaces: DevToolkit documentation, source-build documentation, CI impact classification, and related regression tests.
  • Dependency directions: No new dependencies. Qualification data moves conceptually to caller-owned sources.
  • Affected consumers: DevToolkit contract-impact tooling and users of the source-build documentation.
  • Unresolved blast-radius questions: GPU and Docker runtime behavior was not validated.

PASS — The change removes dead configuration and updates dependent documentation and tests.
HUMAN REVIEW REQUIRED — Confirm that external consumers do not depend on the removed cohort files or schema, and validate GPU and Docker workflows separately.

Walkthrough

The pull request removes the environment cohort schema and two cohort configurations. It updates qualification documentation and classification rules. Source-build documentation and tests now use TrtmcBuildRecipe and describe optional qualification evidence.

Changes

Qualification and source-build flow

Layer / File(s) Summary
Remove environment cohort definitions and classification coverage
configs/environment-cohorts/schema.json, configs/environment-cohorts/trt111-cu133.json, configs/environment-cohorts/trt112-cu133.json, tools/test_impact.py, tests/tools/test_test_impact.py
Deletes the cohort schema and two cohort configurations. Limits the devtoolkit_contract classification to scripts/devToolkit/ and updates its test coverage.
Update qualification behavior documentation
scripts/devToolkit/README.md
Documents qualification and version allowlists as non-admission controls. Removes repository cohort scanning and updates the qualification example and API scope.
Update source-build recipe documentation
website/docs/getting-started/source-build.md, tests/tools/test_github_actions_ci.py
Replaces BuildSpec with TrtmcBuildRecipe. Documents arbitrary exact four-part TensorRT versions and optional qualification evidence. Updates the related documentation assertions.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to ced66

The DevToolkit documentation removes default cohort gating, but its API-scope wording can imply that caller-selected qualification checks do not apply. This could lead users to misconfigure qualification enforcement; clarify the opt-in behavior before merge.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Clarify the qualification-gating contract.

Line 380 says that DevToolkit does not gate environment preparation on qualification presets. Earlier, Line 297 enables require_qualification, and Line 320 states that the request fails closed when the caller requires qualification or requests a preset. State that DevToolkit does not impose a default gate, while callers can opt into qualification gating.

Suggested wording
- gate environment preparation on qualification presets.
+ impose a default qualification gate; callers can opt into qualification checks with `preset` or `require_qualification`.
