Six reads were left on `self.server_args` outside the per-instance boundary the plan reserves for the tokenizer-manager family, and each had a different reason to be there: - `scheduler.process_input_requests` (`mm_feature_transport`) and `BaseSpecWorker._build_hicache_draft_plan` (`enable_hierarchical_cache`) are plain leaves -> `get_mm()` / `get_memory()`. - `DraftBackendFactory._create_backend` read the split backend through a *runtime-computed name* (`getattr(self.server_args, backend_name)`) and then fell back to the base field by hand -- the census's documented blind spot. The two names it can be handed are exactly the pair `attention_backends()` returns with that fallback already applied, so it reads the pair and indexes it. The draft runner's own stamp still wins when it has one. - `remote_instance_weight_loader_use_transfer_engine` and `pre_capture_activation_reserve_mb` are derived members. Both are computed from published leaves only, so both get a named accessor that derives from the bags (and therefore follows a post-publish override). The first of those two has all its inputs in one bag, so it follows the established shape: one `*_of(cfg)` helper in `arg_groups/overrides.py`, the `ServerArgs` member delegating to it, and the accessor calling it on `get_model()`. `modelexpress_transport_of` splits out the JSON parse both sides need. The second spans four bags plus the configured parallel sizes, so it exists twice like the mamba pair -- and `TestDerivedPredicatesAgreeAcrossTiers` now pins both new pairs equal over their input matrices (92 subtests). `self.server_args.X` outside the tokenizer-manager family: 11 -> 5, and the five that remain are the documented ones (the encode server's own record, the nixl connector's rank arithmetic, `GrammarManager`'s handed instance). The post-capture headroom path calls the same bag-backed `pre_capture_activation_reserve_mb` accessor the configurator uses -- the accessor advertises override-following, and a reserve that reads the record while its sibling reads the bags can disagree after a post-publish override. And the conversions' orphans go with them: `RemoteInstanceWeightTransporter` kept a `server_args` field nothing reads, and `DraftBackendFactory` parked a record it no longer consults -- both drop the parameter, and the four factory call sites stop threading one.

About
SGLang is a high-performance serving framework for large language models and multimodal models. It is designed to deliver low-latency and high-throughput inference across a wide range of setups, from a single GPU to large distributed clusters. Its core features include:
- Fast Runtime: Provides efficient serving with RadixAttention for prefix caching, a zero-overhead CPU scheduler, prefill-decode disaggregation, speculative decoding, continuous batching, paged attention, tensor/pipeline/expert/data parallelism, structured outputs, chunked prefill, quantization (FP4/FP8/INT4/AWQ/GPTQ), and multi-LoRA batching.
- Broad Model Support: Supports a wide range of language models (Llama, Qwen, DeepSeek, Kimi, GLM, GPT, Gemma, Mistral, etc.), embedding models (e5-mistral, gte, mcdse), reward models (Skywork), and diffusion models (WAN, Qwen-Image), with easy extensibility for adding new models. Compatible with most Hugging Face models and OpenAI APIs.
- Extensive Hardware Support: Runs on NVIDIA GPUs (GB200/B300/H100/A100/Spark/5090), AMD GPUs (MI355/MI300), Intel Xeon CPUs, Google TPUs, Ascend NPUs, and more.
- Active Community: SGLang is open-source and supported by a vibrant community with widespread industry adoption, powering over 400,000 GPUs worldwide.
- RL & Post-Training Backbone: SGLang is a proven rollout backend used for training many frontier models, with native RL integrations and adoption by well-known post-training frameworks such as AReaL, Miles, slime, Tunix, verl and more.
