+# OpenCode Master Prompt — "Does It Sound Broken?"
+
+Paste the block below into OpenCode (or Codex/Cursor) from inside the
+`sound-broken/` folder. The project is **already scaffolded** — your job is to
+verify it, fill the remaining gaps, get it running, and deploy. A from-scratch
+fallback is included at the end in case you start in an empty folder.
+
+---
+
+## PROMPT TO PASTE
+
+> You are finishing a Hugging Face Gradio hackathon project in the current
+> folder. The architecture is already implemented across these files:
+> `app.py`, `audio_analyzer.py`, `fault_rules.py`, `feature_prompt.py`,
+> `json_guard.py`, `requirements.txt`, `README.md`, `assets/custom.css`,
+> `assets/generate_samples.py`, `tests/test_pipeline.py`.
+>
+> **Concept (do not change it):** audio → deterministic librosa features (CPU)
+> → transparent rule engine ranks candidate faults (CPU) → Nemotron-3-Nano-4B
+> picks + explains the best-supported one (GPU) → validated JSON → UI. The model
+> NEVER hears raw audio; it only reasons over measured features and rule-derived
+> candidates. The rule layer is the floor — `json_guard.py` must snap any
+> ungrounded model output back to the top deterministic candidate.
+>
+> **Hard constraints (keep these):**
+> - Model id: `nvidia/NVIDIA-Nemotron-3-Nano-4B-BF16` (or `-FP8`). NEVER use
+>   `nvidia/Nemotron-3-Nano-4B-Instruct` — it 404s.
+> - **Architecture: Modal-only compute.** The HF Space (`app.py`) is a THIN
+>   Gradio client that depends on only `gradio` + `modal`. ALL heavy work
+>   (librosa feature extraction + rule ranking + the 4B model) runs inside the
+>   Modal container defined in `modal_backend.py` (`@app.cls(gpu="A10G")` with
+>   `@modal.enter()` to load the model and a `@modal.method()` pipeline). Do NOT
+>   put librosa/torch/transformers in the Space's requirements.txt or import them
+>   in app.py. Do NOT use HF ZeroGPU/`spaces.GPU`.
+> - The Space looks the backend up with `modal.Cls.from_name("sound-broken",
+>   "Diagnoser")` and calls `.run.remote(audio_bytes, suffix, appliance)`, which
+>   returns a JSON-serializable dict `{ok, error, features, candidates, result}`.
+> - Appliance type is a REQUIRED input. Greedy decoding (`do_sample=False`),
+>   `max_new_tokens=384`, use `tokenizer.apply_chat_template`.
+> - Robustness is non-negotiable: every handler returns a friendly result and
+>   never raises; all model-derived text is `html.escape`d before rendering.
+>
+> **Do these tasks in order, and report (don't guess) on any blocker:**
+> 1. `pip install -r requirements.txt`.
+> 2. `python assets/generate_samples.py` to create the 4 test WAVs.
+> 3. `python -m pytest tests/ -q` — all tests must pass. The bearing sample MUST
+>    trigger a bearing candidate; the good sample MUST stay calm; empty audio MUST
+>    NOT crash. Fix `audio_analyzer.py` / `fault_rules.py` if any fail.
+> 4. `SOUNDBROKEN_MOCK=1 python app.py` and confirm the UI loads, both tabs work,
+>    Examples render an urgency banner + evidence panel, and Compare shows a
+>    before/after delta. Fix any Gradio wiring issues.
+> 5. Review the CSS renders the industrial amber-on-charcoal theme; tighten if
+>    the verdict card or urgency colors look off. Verify mobile (single column).
+> 6. If a GPU is available, unset MOCK and confirm a real diagnosis returns valid
+>    grounded JSON. If the model OOMs, switch `MODEL_ID` to the `-FP8` variant.
+> 7. Verify `README.md` frontmatter (sdk gradio, hardware zero-gpu, correct model
+>    tag). Add real screenshots once the UI runs.
+> 8. Expand `fault_rules.RULES` to cover the remaining appliances in
+>    `app.APPLIANCES` (Tumble dryer, Refrigerator/Freezer, Air conditioner,
+>    Vacuum cleaner, Dishwasher, Microwave, Bicycle, Power drill). 2–4 rules each,
+>    same `Rule(name, urgency, weight, when, evidence)` shape, weights 0.6–0.9,
+>    evidence templates that reference real feature fields. Keep `when` lambdas
+>    defensive (no exceptions on edge values).
+>
+> **Definition of done:** tests green; `python app.py` runs end-to-end; all 4
+> examples produce grounded reproducible diagnoses with a visible evidence chain;
+> Compare tab shows a numeric delta; no unhandled exception on empty/garbage audio;
+> README renders on a Space. Work incrementally and run the tests after each change.
+>
+> **Stretch (only if time remains):** add `finetune/train.py` — a LoRA fine-tune
+> of the 4B model on ~200–300 (feature-description → known-fault) pairs derived
+> from the MIMII dataset; document uploading the adapter to the Hub for the
+> Well-Tuned badge. Do not let this block the core submission.
+
+---
+
+## FROM-SCRATCH FALLBACK (only if the folder is empty)
+
+If the scaffold is missing, build it module by module in this exact order, running
+a quick check after each: (1) `audio_analyzer.py` with the `AudioFeatures`
+dataclass + NaN-guarded `extract_features`; (2) `fault_rules.py` with `Rule`,
+`Candidate`, `RULES` tables and `rank_candidates` (always returns ≥1 candidate);
+(3) `feature_prompt.py` `build_diagnosis_prompt(features, candidates, appliance)`
+demanding strict JSON; (4) `json_guard.py` `validate()` with rule fallback;
+(5) `app.py` Gradio Blocks with `@spaces.GPU`, mock mode via `SOUNDBROKEN_MOCK`,
+Diagnose + Compare tabs, evidence accordion; (6) `assets/generate_samples.py`,
+`assets/custom.css`, `tests/`, `requirements.txt`, `README.md` with the
+frontmatter above. Use the constraints listed in the main prompt verbatim.

+# 🔊 Does It Sound Broken?
+
+> Record 10 seconds of an appliance. Get back **what's wrong, how urgent, and
+> what to check first** — grounded in measured acoustics, explained by a 4B model.
+
+## Elevator pitch
+Mechanical faults announce themselves acoustically long before failure, but
+ordinary people can't decode the sound and a technician callout costs more than
+the diagnosis is worth. This app closes that gap: deterministic DSP extracts ~14
+acoustic features, a transparent rule engine ranks likely faults, and
+**NVIDIA Nemotron-3-Nano-4B** explains the best-supported one in plain language.
+**The model never hears raw audio** — it reasons only over confirmed measurements,
+which is exactly why a 4B model is reliable here.
+
+## ✨ Features
+- 🎙️ Record or upload — diagnose 12 appliance types
+- 🔬 14 deterministic acoustic features (librosa/scipy, on Modal)
+- 🧭 Transparent rule-grounded fault ranking (no hallucinated faults)
+- 🚦 Urgency banner (CRITICAL → LOW) + 3 concrete checks + safety note
+- 🧾 "Evidence" panel: every diagnosis traces to a measured value and a rule
+- 📊 Before/after compare tab — prove the fix measurably worked
+- 🛡️ Hardened: silence, clipping, NaN, corrupt files, stereo, and runaway
+  model output are all handled — the UI never crashes (106 passing tests)
+- 🔒 No audio stored
+
+## 🧠 How it works
+```
+HF Space (thin Gradio client)
+   │  audio bytes + appliance
+   ▼
+Modal GPU container ── librosa features ─► trained anomaly detector (DCASE 2025)
+                    ─► rule engine ranks candidates
+                    ─► structured prompt ─► Nemotron-3-Nano-4B + LoRA ─► validated JSON
+   │  result dict
+   ▼
+HF Space renders verdict + evidence
+```
+**Limited resources by design:** the Space does NO heavy compute — it only ships
+audio to Modal and renders the answer. All librosa/torch/transformers work runs in
+the Modal image on Modal's hardware. The rule engine is the floor: the model can
+refine and explain, but cannot name a fault the measurements don't support
+(`json_guard.py` snaps ungrounded output back).
+
+## 🏗️ Architecture
+| File | Role | Runs on |
+|---|---|---|
+| `app.py` | Thin Gradio client (only `gradio` + `modal`) | HF Space |
+| `modal_backend.py` | GPU class running the whole pipeline | Modal (A100-40GB) |
+| `audio_analyzer.py` | Deterministic 14-feature extraction | Modal |
+| `fault_rules.py` | Per-appliance rule tables → ranked candidates | Modal |
+| `feature_prompt.py` | Formats facts + candidates into the prompt | Modal |
+| `json_guard.py` | Validates output, guarantees a safe result | Modal |
+| `finetune/train.py` | DCASE 2025 classifier + LoRA training pipeline | Modal (CPU/GPU) |
+| `mock_model.py` | Deterministic LLM stand-in for tests/dry-runs | local |
+
+Model: `nvidia/NVIDIA-Nemotron-3-Nano-4B-BF16` (override with `MODEL_ID`).
+
+## 🚀 Run locally
+```bash
+pip install -r requirements.txt        # thin client deps (gradio, modal)
+python assets/generate_samples.py      # create test WAVs
+
+# UI only, no Modal/GPU (canned output):
+SOUNDBROKEN_MOCK=1 python app.py
+
+# Real backend: deploy Modal once, then run the client:
+modal deploy modal_backend.py
+python app.py
+```
+
+## ☁️ Deploy
+1. **Modal backend:** `modal deploy modal_backend.py` (the image installs
+   librosa/torch/transformers; weights cache on a Modal Volume).
+2. **HF Space:** SDK **Gradio**, free CPU tier is enough (thin client). Add your
+   Modal credentials as Space secrets: `MODAL_TOKEN_ID`, `MODAL_TOKEN_SECRET`.
+3. First request cold-starts the Modal container (~20–30 s); then it's warm.
+
+## 🧪 Sample audio
+- `sample_washer_bearing.wav` — rhythmic 4 Hz impacts (bearing fault)
+- `sample_fan_imbalanced.wav` — 50 Hz hum with amplitude wobble (imbalance)
+- `sample_motor_squeal.wav` — 2.5 kHz modulated tone (belt/brush squeal)
+- `sample_washer_good.wav` — steady hum (healthy baseline)
+
+## 🧪 Trained ML models
+
+### Anomaly detector (binary: normal vs anomaly)
+- **Dataset:** DCASE 2025 Task 2 (`HTill/dcase2025_task2_dev`) — real industrial machine audio
+- **Accuracy:** 71.2% | **ROC-AUC:** 0.725 | **5-fold CV AUC:** 0.758 ± 0.025
+- **Features:** 14 deterministic librosa features (RMS, spectral centroid, onset rate, harmonic ratio, etc.)
+- **Ensemble:** VotingClassifier (GradientBoosting + RandomForest, soft voting)
+- **Threshold:** Youden-J optimal 0.45 (balanced) / 0.22 (safety-mode, ≥80% recall)
+- **Per-machine accuracy:** bearing 66%, fan 72%, gearbox 70%, slider 66%, valve 82%
+
+### LoRA fine-tune (Well-Tuned badge)
+- **Base:** `nvidia/NVIDIA-Nemotron-3-Nano-4B-BF16` with LoRA (r=16, alpha=32)
+- **Targets:** q_proj, v_proj, k_proj, o_proj (1.59M trainable params, 0.04%)
+- **Training:** 300 pairs × 2 epochs on A100-80GB, loss 1.85 → 0.72
+- **Pairs:** DCASE clips → (features + rule candidates → grounded JSON response)
+- **Adapter:** `mitvho09/sound-broken-nemotron-lora` on HF Hub
+- **Inference:** Manual weight merging (no peft at runtime) — LoRA fused into base model weights at container start for transformers 5.x compatibility
+
+## 🔭 Future work
+- More domains: HVAC, power tools, vehicles
+- On-device GGUF (Q4_K_M) build for offline field use
+- Trend analysis with before/after comparison

+Real data: HTill/dcase2025_task2_dev — DCASE 2025 Task 2 (machine anomalous-sound
+detection), raw 16 kHz audio for 7 machine types, each clip labelled normal or
+anomaly. This is the real successor to the MIMII dataset.
+
+The dataset labels clips ONLY as normal vs anomaly — it does NOT label the
+specific mechanical fault. So we train the honest task the labels support:
+
+    14 librosa features (audio_analyzer)  ->  normal vs anomaly  (+ confidence)
+
+The model is therefore a *grounded acoustic anomaly detector* that works on any
+appliance the user selects. The specific FAULT NAME shown to the user still
+comes from the transparent rule engine (fault_rules.rank_candidates), conditioned
+on the appliance. We never claim the model identifies a fault it never saw.
+
+Reported metrics are real and out-of-sample: accuracy, ROC-AUC, F1, confusion
+matrix, plus a per-machine-type breakdown.

+# Sound-Broken Nemotron LoRA Adapter
+
+Fine-tuned LoRA adapter for **"Does It Sound Broken?"** — an appliance fault
+diagnosis app from the Build Small Hackathon 2026.
+
+## What it does
+
+This adapter teaches Nemotron-Nano-4B to produce **grounded JSON diagnoses** from
+deterministic audio features + rule-engine candidates. The model never hears raw
+audio — it reasons over 14 measured acoustic features (spectral centroid, RMS,
+onset rate, harmonic ratio, etc.) extracted by librosa.
+
+## Training
+
+- **Base model:** `nvidia/NVIDIA-Nemotron-3-Nano-4B-BF16`
+- **Dataset:** DCASE 2025 Task 2 (real industrial machine audio, 7 machine types)
+- **Training pairs:** 300 (feature descriptions + rule candidates → JSON responses)
+- **Epochs:** 2
+- **LoRA config:** r=16, alpha=32, dropout=0.05, targets: q/k/v/o_proj
+- **Loss convergence:** 1.85 → 0.72 (epoch 1, step 100)
+
+## Usage with PEFT
+
+```python
+from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer
+from peft import PeftModel
+
+base = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
+    "nvidia/NVIDIA-Nemotron-3-Nano-4B-BF16", torch_dtype="auto"
+)
+model = PeftModel.from_pretrained(base, "mitvho09/sound-broken-nemotron-lora")
+tok = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("mitvho09/sound-broken-nemotron-lora")
+```
+
+## Context
+
+Part of the **"Does It Sound Broken?"** app — record 10 seconds of an appliance,
+get a diagnosis. The full pipeline:
+
+1. **librosa** extracts 14 deterministic features (CPU)
+2. **Rule engine** ranks candidate faults (CPU, transparent)
+3. **This LoRA** (on Nemotron-4B) produces grounded JSON explanation (GPU)
+4. **json_guard** validates output grounding (CPU)
+
+The rule engine is the floor; this adapter makes the LLM narration more accurate.
