Changelog entry not appended at tail
Medium Severity
The new glm5.2-fp4-mi355x-sglang-agentic-mtp changelog block was inserted before later main entries and a historical separator line was dropped. perf-changelog.yaml is append-only: new entries belong at the physical end, and existing bytes including separator whitespace stay unchanged. A YAML parse does not catch this; validate_raw_change and the reuse merge helper require a byte-identical historical prefix.

Nothing blocking. The comments below are optional suggestions. There is no need to push a fix for them before merging.
Beyond the inline finding on the perf-changelog.yaml trailing-line removal, I checked two other AGENTS.md conventions for this diff: the --use-chat-template requirement for *_mtp.sh scripts calling run_benchmark_serving (this script is an agentic-coding benchmark that doesn't call run_benchmark_serving directly, so it doesn't apply), and the model.container == image rule for image bumps (this is a single-node config with no container key, so that multi-node rule doesn't apply either).
Extended reasoning...
This diff is a small, mechanical-looking change (image version bump plus a one-line default-policy revert) but it carries a reported finding: the removal of the pre-existing trailing whitespace-only line at the end of perf-changelog.yaml, which conflicts with AGENTS.md's explicit "append-only, byte-sensitive" invariant for that file. Since a reported finding exists, I did not restate it but instead checked adjacent conventions that could plausibly also be violated by this change — the --use-chat-template flag requirement and the model.container/image consistency rule — and confirmed both are inapplicable to these particular files (no run_benchmark_serving call in this agentic script; no container key in this single-node config entry). Given the outstanding inline finding, a human should still review before merge.

🟡 (optional) The diff deletes the file's pre-existing trailing whitespace-only line (old file ended "...pull/2866\n \n", new ends "...pull/2866\n"), violating AGENTS.md's rule that perf-changelog.yaml is append-only/byte-sensitive: preserve all existing bytes and separator whitespace, append only at the tail. Fix: re-add the removed trailing line so no existing bytes are altered; only append the new entry above it, never edit or truncate the tail.
Extended reasoning...
Base file (at 4caeb31) ends with the last pr-link line followed by a line containing two spaces and a newline (confirmed via od -c). HEAD's perf-changelog.yaml drops that trailing line entirely (git diff shows a bare deletion with no matching addition at file end). AGENTS.md line 31 states the file is append-only and byte-sensitive and existing bytes/separator whitespace must be preserved, appends only at the tail — this diff instead mutates the tail by removing a byte sequence, which any tooling relying on byte-stable diffs/checksums against this file would flag or choke on, and sets precedent that trailing separator content can be silently dropped in future PRs.
Verification: normal (violates a documented non-negotiable invariant this diff introduces). Base perf-changelog.yaml at 4caeb31 ends with ...pull/2866\n \n — od -c on the base tail shows 2866 \n \n (a trailing line of two spaces plus newline after the final pr-link). HEAD's file ends ...pull/2866\n — od -c on the current tail shows 2866 \n with the whitespace-only line gone. The diff's last…
