…+ 3 alpha) The cross-model backend uses 7 globally-fitted coefficients, not 4: - 4 beta coefficients for step time (per-layer, KV bandwidth, MoE dispatch, TP sync) - 3 alpha coefficients for CPU overhead (pre-scheduling, per-token, output processing) All 7 are model-independent and stored in crossmodel_defaults. The "4 coefficients" framing incorrectly excluded the alpha parameters which are equally global. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <[email protected]>

Summary
The cross-model backend documentation incorrectly states "4 globally-fitted coefficients" when it actually uses 7: 4 beta (step time) + 3 alpha (CPU overhead). All 7 are model-independent and stored in
crossmodel_defaultsindefaults.yaml.Changes
docs/guide/latency-models.md: "4 globally-fitted physics coefficients" → "7 globally-fitted coefficients (4 beta for step time + 3 alpha for CPU overhead)"docs/reference/configuration.md: same fix in mode selection descriptionCLAUDE.md: expanded to list all 7 coefficient rolesContext
The "4 coefficients" framing propagated from the issue design (#472) which focused on the StepTime formula (4 beta terms) and treated the alpha coefficients as a footnote. But from the user's perspective, all 7 come from
crossmodel_defaults— they're all part of the cross-model prediction.🤖 Generated with Claude Code
