This is the v0-finished sibling of `ModalExecutor` (which remains a
skeleton per Wave 18 contract). The skeleton class stays unchanged to
preserve `test_skeleton_executors.py`'s pinned NotImplementedError
contract; this class is the working alternative for users who want
real Modal execution.
Design choices vs the skeleton's docstring:
1. **User-provided `modal.Function` instead of internal app construction.**
The skeleton showed a pattern where ModalExecutor builds its own
`modal.App` and registers `run_replica` internally. That couples the
executor to image/GPU/Volume choices the user actually wants to own.
Instead, ModalSpawnExecutor takes a *pre-decorated* `modal.Function`
from the caller — the user defines:
@app.function(gpu="H100:4", image=my_image, volumes={"/vol": vol},
secrets=[modal.Secret.from_name("hf-token")],
timeout=4*3600)
def run_replica(rendezvous_uri: str, world_size: int,
rank: int, **entrypoint_args):
import os
os.environ["REPLICA_RANK"] = str(rank)
from composer_replication.diloco.serverless import (
MockManager, ObjectStoreAllReduce,
)
store = ObjectStoreAllReduce(rendezvous_uri, rank=rank,
world_size=world_size)
manager = MockManager(store)
# ... user's training loop with this manager ...
then constructs:
executor = ModalSpawnExecutor(modal_function=run_replica)
handles = executor.launch_replicas(
n_replicas=4,
entrypoint=run_replica, # ignored — function is bound
entrypoint_args={"rendezvous_uri": "/vol/diloco/run42",
"world_size": 4},
)
2. **Rank as explicit kwarg, not env-var indirection.** Modal Functions
start with a clean env, so the rank-via-env pattern that
LocalProcessExecutor uses is fragile here (Modal would need
container-level env injection per call, which `modal.Secret.from_dict`
does but adds a round-trip per spawn). We pass rank as a kwarg to
`.spawn(rank=i)` so it's plumbed through Modal's call args directly.
3. **Handle metadata = `call_id`, no in-process state.** Unlike
LocalProcessExecutor (which holds Process refs), this executor is
stateless after launch — handles are reconstructed via
`modal.FunctionCall.from_id(call_id)` for poll/cancel/collect.
Lets the executor survive process restart mid-run.

Implements the `ServerlessExecutor` Protocol against Modal's

Args:
modal_function: a `modal.Function` registered against a `modal.App`.
Must accept at minimum `rank: int` plus the kwargs in
`entrypoint_args`. Image / GPU / Volume / Secret / timeout
are pinned on the decorator and the executor won't override
them.
deploy: if True, calls `modal_function.app.deploy()` before
spawning. Required when running outside a `modal run` context
(e.g. from a regular Python script). Default False — assumes
the user is inside a `modal run` block where the app is
already live.
Raises:
RuntimeError: if `modal` client is not installed.
