The portfolio data, risk and mean-CVaR optimisation service, prepared for students who run it on their own DGX Spark without root, Docker or Tailscale. - deploy/apptainer/qc.sh: install, start/stop/status/logs, cli/api/python, data import/export and Yahoo setup/update. cuOpt and quantcore run as two Apptainer instances of the user and talk over 127.0.0.1; the API and the test bench listen on 127.0.0.1 only. Builds quantcore.sif without root, or falls back to a plain Python image plus a virtualenv when the Spark allows no unprivileged builds. Detects taken ports and suggests free ones. - deploy/apptainer/quantcore.def + constraints.txt: the image, with the library versions of the verified production container pinned. - cuOpt under Apptainer: NVIDIA's image sets HOME=/opt/cuopt, read-only in a SIF, so the solver died on its first job; qc.sh gives it a writable home. - solvers: a cuOpt that disappears during a solve now falls back to HiGHS instead of answering 500 (requests' ConnectionError escaped the fallback). - client: idempotent GETs retry a dropped keep-alive connection, which made `quantcore-api update --wait` fail when a poll met uvicorn's 5 s timeout. - config: cuOpt defaults to http://127.0.0.1:5000 and `quantcore serve` to 127.0.0.1; the Docker images keep passing their own values. - docs/SPARK_APPTAINER.md: the students' guide; README, USAGE, ARCHITECTURE and SPARK_DEPLOYMENT point to it. Tested on a DGX Spark (GB10, Apptainer 1.5.4, unprivileged user) in both modes: selftest on every endpoint, optimisation on cuOpt, Yahoo update, port conflicts; 139 tests pass in the container against the live cuOpt.
