 ### Model and runtime
 
 - `--model-path {MODEL}`: model path or Hugging Face model ID
+- `--served-model-name {NAME}`: stable model name exposed by serving APIs. Defaults to `--model-id` when set, otherwise `--model-path`.
 - `--model-variant {NAME}`: semantic checkpoint variant to load when one model repository contains multiple weight partitions. The pipeline maps this stable name to the repository layout before loading; for example, MiniMax-H3 accepts `fl2va` and `ref2va`. This is a server/load-time choice, unlike a request's `task`.
 - `--model-subfolder {PATH}`: advanced direct override for a component subfolder inside the model repository. Prefer `--model-variant` when the pipeline exposes semantic routing. If both are supplied, they must resolve to the same weight partition.
 - `--lora-path {PATH}` and `--lora-nickname {NAME}`: load a LoRA adapter

+### Served model name
 
-**Endpoint:** `GET /models`
+`--served-model-name` separates the public API identity from the checkpoint location. This is useful when replicas use different local mount paths or when a gateway needs one stable model name:
 
-Returns information about the model served by this server, including model path, task type, pipeline configuration, and precision settings.
+```bash
+sglang serve \
+  --model-path /models/Wan2.1-T2V-1.3B-Diffusers \
+  --served-model-name wan-t2v \
+  --port 30010
+```
+
+`--model-id` is not a free-form deployment alias: it selects the registered model configuration for checkpoints whose local path cannot be identified. `--served-model-name` only controls the name exposed by serving APIs. When both are set, the served name takes precedence for API responses.
+
+### Discover the served model
+
+**Endpoint:** `GET /v1/models`
+
+Returns the public model name together with diffusion-specific runtime information.
 
 **Curl Example:**
 
 ```bash curl
-curl -sS -X GET "http://localhost:30010/models"
+curl -sS "http://localhost:30010/v1/models"
 ```
 
 **Response Example:**

+## Stable Model Identity
+
+Use `--served-model-name` when the public model name must remain stable across replicas, hosts, or checkpoint mount paths:
+
+```bash
+sglang serve \
+  --model-path /mnt/checkpoints/Qwen-Image \
+  --model-id Qwen-Image \
+  --served-model-name image-production \
+  --port 30010
+```
+
+The resolved public name follows `--served-model-name`, then `--model-id`, then `--model-path`. `--model-id` remains an internal model registry and configuration-resolution hint; it is not a replacement for a deployment alias. The resolved name is exposed through `/server_info` and `/v1/models` and is used by video and action responses when a request does not supply its own model.
+
+See [OpenAI API: Served model name](/docs/sglang-diffusion/api/openai_api#served-model-name) for discovery and retrieval examples.
+
 ## Performance Modes
 
 `--performance-mode` applies safe presets without overriding explicit offload, FSDP, or parallelism flags. `auto` is the default. Use `manual` when you need to keep performance-related server args under explicit user control. `--mode` is a short alias.
