Summary

Update Dynamo's AISimulate integration to the current 0.13 APIs and one consistent source revision: 8a0b0e8ee141cf5b308ac1aacb4607d3612bcc7c from AISimulate #306.

This PR is an optional downstream dependency/integration upgrade. Conversation-aware AgentX simulation is implemented and accepted in AISimulate, which calls the standalone policy API from Dynamo #16854. Neither that API nor AISim's acceptance depends on this PR.

The final diff contains dependency/container alignment and existing integration compatibility: session identity and handoff state, explicit PCP defaults, and the canonical speculation-depth resolver used by the AIS forward-pass callback. Existing replay entry points remain as on main. There is no added conversation-routing adapter or simulator execution path here, and no new wheel or release backport.

Integration order

Merge Dynamo #16854 first, then AISimulate #306. This PR can follow if Dynamo should consume the updated AISimulate version. It is not a third required step for AgentX acceptance.

Review map

• Cargo.toml, lib/bindings/python/Cargo.toml, all three Cargo locks and container/deps/requirements.aisimulate.txt: one immutable AISim revision.
• Container wheel stages: build/install that source wheel with consistent Python package versions.
• lib/mocker compatibility changes and lib/bindings/python/rust/llm/ais_callback.rs: updated engine fields and resolved speculation depth.
• Dependency/namespace tests and integration docs: keep the optional Dynamo stack separate from AISim's standalone routing acceptance.

Validation

• Compatibility code at 699e228155d33286b8a4343e418c04845a9ec978: 263 mocker Rust tests passed before the final source-pin refresh; the refreshed pin is validated by the binding build and dependency checks below.
• Python dependency/namespace suite: 9 passed.
• Python bindings checked with --locked --features ais-forward-pass against the final pin.
• All three lockfiles regenerated through Cargo metadata; Rust formatting and changed-file pre-commit checks passed.
• Docs lint and Fern structure/link validation passed; existing warnings remain.
• Separately, AISim NIXL add_remote_agent failed with NIXL_ERR_UNKNOW #306 passed 24 full CLI acceptance cases without installing the ai-dynamo plugin, using only the standalone runtime from feat(router): expose native scheduler and affinity Python bindings #16854.

GitHub CI was not monitored or claimed green in this revision. The checks above validate compatibility and functional simulation, not hardware timing accuracy.

Walkthrough

The pull request adds canonical replay with KV-router conversation affinity, routes replay through Python and native interfaces, and adds routing evidence and coverage. It also pins AISimulate to a Git revision and updates wheel builds and installation. Planner configuration now rejects an unsupported mocker fallback.

Changes

Canonical Replay and Affinity

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Affinity configuration and feature wiring components/src/dynamo/router/simulation/config.py, components/src/dynamo/router/simulation/provider.py, lib/mocker/Cargo.toml, lib/bindings/python/Cargo.toml	Router configuration accepts session or sibling-group affinity with a bounded TTL, and passes affinity into runtime hooks. Feature wiring enables Python replay in the mocker and bindings.
Affinity state and queue scheduling lib/mocker/src/replay/offline/extensions/kv_router/*, lib/kv-router/src/scheduling/policy_queue.rs, lib/mocker/src/engine_observations.rs, lib/mocker/src/grouped_scheduler/tests.rs	The offline router acquires and releases affinity bindings, pins queued requests to workers and DP ranks, and tracks replay time and routing evidence. Queue placement refresh and affinity lifecycle tests are added.
Canonical native replay composition lib/mocker/src/replay/offline/*, lib/mocker/src/replay/mod.rs	The canonical JSON entrypoint validates placement configuration, runs the KV-router composition, and adds routing evidence to the result. Canonical topology support handles aggregated and disaggregated placements.
Dynamo and Python replay adapters components/src/dynamo/replay/*, lib/bindings/python/rust/*, lib/bindings/python/src/dynamo/_core.pyi	Dynamo selects canonical replay for affinity and supported AgentX or state-cache settings. Python replay validates the payload and runtime versions, forwards affinity, and exposes replay API metadata. Integration and CLI tests cover replay modes, affinity, profiling, and resource exhaustion.

AISimulate Source Pin and Wheel Builds

Layer / File(s)	Summary
AISimulate version and source pins Cargo.toml, lib/bindings/python/Cargo.toml, pyproject.toml, benchmarks/pyproject.toml, container/deps/requirements.aisimulate.txt, container/deps/README.md, .github/scripts/apply_dev_version.py	Cargo uses AISimulate version 0.13.0 from a pinned Git revision. Python and container requirements use version 0.13.0; comments describe the source pin.
Source wheel build and image installation container/templates/wheel_builder.Dockerfile, container/templates/dynamo_runtime.Dockerfile, container/templates/frontend.Dockerfile, container/templates/planner.Dockerfile, container/templates/triton_runtime.Dockerfile	The wheel builder builds AISimulate from the pinned source. Runtime, frontend, and Triton images install the matching wheel.
Wheel requirements and consistency checks tests/dependencies/*, tests/wheels/smoke_install.py	Dependency checks cover source and version alignment, Cargo lock entries, and wheel-builder commands. Smoke installation requires and verifies the local AISimulate wheel.

Planner AIS Performance Model Configuration

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Planner AIS configuration validation components/src/dynamo/planner/config/planner_config.py, components/src/dynamo/planner/core/perf_model/ais_adapter.py, components/src/dynamo/planner/tests/*	The planner raises ValueError when the mocker backend has no explicit AIS performance-model specification. Tests cover supported backends, tensor-parallel values, and model provenance.

Priority: ➖ Normal

Estimated code review effort: 5 (Critical) | ~120 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to e32b2

Installing the project outside the container images may fail because the pinned AISimulate release is not published on the package index. Large affinity replays may also slow down sharply as the queue grows. Resolve the install path, and ideally the queue cost, before merging.

- Around line 1219-1228: Update drain_pending so it does not acquire affinity
for every queued entry or call refresh_placements across the whole queue on
every drain. Track group keys changed by binding commits, releases, or
invalidations, index pending UUIDs by group key, and reacquire and refresh
placements only for affected entries while preserving queue ordering. Add the
before/after queue benchmark required for changes to
PolicyQueue::refresh_placements.

Review comments at @pyproject.toml:
- Line 17: Make the pinned aisimulate==0.13.0 dependency resolvable for normal
installs by publishing the matching wheel or supplying the source wheel outside
the container wheelhouse. Apply the same availability fix to the root project
requirement in pyproject.toml at line 17 and the benchmark requirement in
benchmarks/pyproject.toml at line 42.
