06506529ea fix(cachyllama): link SSD cache implementation
CachyLLaMA splits persistent prompt-cache support into separate source files. Include those implementations in the monolithic LocalAI gRPC adapter when the fork provides them so the ARM64 fallback build resolves the page-manager symbols.

ef724a3c9d feat(api): add /v1/detokenize endpoint (#9620)
* feat(api): add /v1/detokenize endpoint

Closes #1649.

Mirror of the existing /v1/tokenize path, requested by @benniekiss in
the issue thread for "complete API workflow" use cases that need to
turn token IDs back into text without local processing.

- Add Detokenize gRPC RPC with DetokenizeRequest{tokens} /
  DetokenizeResponse{content} messages.
- Implement in the llama.cpp backend using common_token_to_piece, the
  same primitive TokenizeString already uses internally.
- Other backends inherit the default Unimplemented from base.Base, in
  line with how Detect, Rerank, etc. are gated per-backend.
- Wire up the Go gRPC interface, server, client, and in-process embed
  wrapper alongside their TokenizeString counterparts.
- Add the schema types, ModelDetokenize wrapper, HTTP handler, route
  registration, RouteFeatureRegistry entry (gated by FeatureTokenize so
  no new feature flag is needed), and the discovery map entry under
  ai_functions.
- Regenerated swagger reflects the new endpoint and types.
- Update authentication.md to list /v1/detokenize alongside /v1/tokenize.

* test(e2e): add mock backend tests for /v1/detokenize

Add Detokenize to the mock gRPC backend and wire up two e2e tests in
the MockBackend suite: one that posts known token IDs and asserts a
non-empty content response, and a round-trip that tokenizes first then
detokenizes the returned IDs.

Addresses reviewer feedback on #9620.

* fix(kokoros): implement detokenize in the Rust backend service

The Detokenize RPC added in this PR grows the tonic-generated Backend
trait. Unlike the other languages there is nothing to inherit a default
from — Rust trait impls must list every method — so
backend/rust/kokoros failed to compile:

  error[E0046]: not all trait items implemented, missing: `detokenize`
    --> src/service.rs:72:1
  72 | impl Backend for KokorosService {

Go backends pick up the Unimplemented default from base.Base, and the
generated C++/Python servicer bases default to UNIMPLEMENTED, which is
why the Rust backend was the only one that broke. kokoros is the sole
Rust crate in the tree, so this is the full extent of the fallout.

Return Status::unimplemented("Not supported"), matching how this same
file already gates tokenize_string and ~20 other unsupported RPCs.

Fixes the tests-kokoros and backend-jobs-singlearch-4 (-cpu-kokoros)
failures on the previous head.

49ef40a187 feat(classifier/VAD): support voice control on low power devices (#10804)
* feat(llama-cpp): route Score through the slot loop

Score previously bypassed the slot loop with a direct llama_decode: a
conflict guard aborted the whole process if scoring raced generation, the
config validator had to reject score alongside chat/completion/embeddings,
and every candidate re-decoded the full shared prompt.

Add SERVER_TASK_TYPE_SCORE to the (patched) upstream server so score tasks
are scheduled like any other slot work: generation and scoring serialize
naturally, the shared prompt is decoded once per call, and the slot's
prompt cache carries the conversation prefix across calls. Context
checkpoints at the score boundary and at the cache-divergence point keep
SWA/hybrid/recurrent models (e.g. LFM2.5) from re-prefilling the whole
prompt per candidate: warm-turn scoring on a 6-option set drops from ~8s
to ~0.5s on a desktop CPU.

The conflict guard and the validation split are removed; declaring score
with generation usecases on one config is now supported and shares the
slot cache.

Wire types and YAML config for realtime classifier mode: sessions carry a
localai_classifier extension (options with canned replies/tool calls,
softmax threshold, normalization, history trimming, fallback modes, and a

localai.classifier.result server event reports the full score distribution

* feat(realtime): classifier response flow

Classifier-mode responses: instead of autoregressive generation, each user
turn is prefill-scored against the option list (router.ScoreClassifier
prompt/candidate shapes over the Score primitive) and the winning option's
canned reply and tool call are emitted through the existing response
machinery. Below-threshold turns take the configured fallback (none /
canned reply / generate); empty transcripts and unaddressed turns (wake
word not mentioned) skip scoring entirely. The scoring probe defaults to
the latest user message only — small scorers echo canned replies from
prior turns back as the top option otherwise.

Built for hardware that can afford prompt processing but not decode: with
slot-based Score the option list stays KV-cached across turns, so a turn
costs roughly one forward pass over the new words.

session_update_error events now carry the validation cause instead of a
generic message.

* fix(realtime): bound the VAD tick's scan window and buffer retention

The VAD tick loop re-scanned the entire input buffer every 300ms and only
trimmed it on zero-segment ticks or commits. Audio that keeps producing
segments without a committing pause (steady noise a mic pipeline lets
through, music, continuous speech) grew the buffer toward the 100MB cap
with each tick rescanning all of it — O(n^2), measured at ~3.3ms of silero
per buffered second: past ~90s retained, ticks run back to back and pin
~4 cores until the stream stops.

Silero's recurrent state only carries a few hundred ms of context, so
rescanning old audio buys nothing. Clip the slice handed to the VAD to the
largest silence the commit test can need to measure (server_vad silence
window or the semantic eagerness fallback) plus a warm-up margin, and
rebase the returned segment times so every downstream consumer keeps
whole-buffer coordinates. An open turn whose clipped window is all silence
now commits (the silence outran the window) instead of being discarded as
no-speech. Independently, retain at most 90s of raw buffer, rebasing the
live-feed and EOU cursors on trim — this also bounds the previously
unbounded VAD-error path. Turn boundaries are otherwise unchanged: no
forced commits, no new coordinator states.

pipeline.turn_detection.vad_window_sec can widen the scan window; values
below the automatic floor are ignored. The tick body is extracted into
vadTick so specs can drive turn detection synchronously (same shape as
classifySoundWindow); the babble reproduction that pinned 4 cores now
plateaus under 10% of one core.

* fix(backend): let per-model threads override the global default

ModelOptions overrode a set per-model threads value with the app-level
--threads whenever the latter was non-zero — and WithThreads defaults it
to the physical core count, so it always was. The YAML threads: knob has
been dead config: a tiny VAD model could never opt down from the global
pool size.

SetDefaults already fills an unset per-model value from the app config,
which is the intended precedence; resolve threads through a helper that
honors it (explicit threads: 0 still means unset).

* perf(llama-cpp): score all candidates in one batched decode

One scoring call is now a single SERVER_TASK_TYPE_SCORE task: the slot
decodes the shared prefix (prompt + longest common candidate token
prefix) once, then forks one sequence per candidate off it
(metadata-only for the unified KV cache, copy-on-write for recurrent
state) and decodes every candidate's unique tail in one llama_decode.
Previously each candidate was its own task that restored the boundary
checkpoint and re-decoded its full tail sequentially, paying
per-candidate task and decode overhead.

The context reserves SERVER_SCORE_FORK_SEQS extra sequence ids (and
recurrent-state cells) beyond the parallel slots via the new
common_params::n_seq_score_forks. Forking requires the unified KV cache
(already this backend's default) since per-sequence streams would shrink
n_ctx_seq; an explicit kv_unified:false disables forking and Score calls
that need it fail cleanly. Candidates beyond the fork/output budget
decode in successive chunks.

Wire contract and scores are unchanged: per-token logprobs are stitched
from the shared region and the forked tails. Verified bitwise
deterministic call-to-call and independent of candidate order (no
cross-fork leakage via equal-length candidate swap); ranking matches the
per-candidate implementation on the drone battery (winner softmax
0.99996 vs 0.99997), and >16-candidate chunking, prefix-of-another and
empty candidates all pass.

Measured on a desktop CPU: warm /api/score calls 0.52s -> 0.23s; warm
realtime classifier turns 196-303ms. The 9-candidate drone turn decodes
~17 unique tail tokens in one batch instead of nine sequential ~220ms
checkpoint-restore tasks.

* feat(realtime): classifier argument slots via constrained completion

Hybrid classify-then-complete: a classifier option's canned tool call can
declare typed argument slots (number | enum | string, with defaults and
prompt hints) referenced as "{{name}}" in the arguments template. When
the option wins, the slots are filled by a short grammar-constrained
completion that continues the exact scoring prompt — rendered by the same
cached ScoreClassifier, so the llama.cpp prompt cache is already warm —
with the chosen route JSON re-opened at the first slot field. A GBNF
grammar pins the field skeleton and frees only the values; temperature 0,
a couple dozen tokens at most (~300ms on a desktop CPU for two slots).

Slot declarations and hints ride the option descriptions in the shared
system prompt, informing scoring and the fill alike at no per-turn token
cost. The localai.classifier.result event carries the final arguments and
a fill_latency_ms. On inference failure the slots' defaults apply; a slot
without a default fails the response (or falls through with
fallback.mode: generate). Slot filling requires completion alongside
score in the scoring model's known_usecases.

Verified end-to-end on the Pi drone demo: "fly forward three meters" in
distance mode classifies forward and infers {"distance": 3, "units":
"meters"} in ~310ms, and the drone flies exactly 3 units.

* feat(realtime): splice filled slot values into classifier replies

A classifier option's spoken reply can now reference its tool's argument
slots ("Going forward {{distance}} {{units}}."): the values inferred by
the slot-fill completion — or the recovery defaults — are spliced into
the reply as plain text before it is emitted, so what the assistant says
confirms what it actually inferred. Placeholders without a value stay
literal, and options without slots are untouched.

FillToolArguments now returns the raw slot values alongside the spliced
arguments JSON to make the reply templating possible.

* feat(realtime): prewarm the classifier scoring prompt on registration

Swapping a session's classifier option list (a voice-switched command
mode, for instance) made the next turns pay a full re-prefill of the new
option-list prompt — measured 2.4s vs 0.3s warm on a desktop CPU, and
worse: on hybrid-memory models like LFM2.5, whose state cannot be
partially rewound (llama.cpp can only restore checkpoints), *every*
probe change re-prefilled from scratch whenever the last checkpoint
missed the probe boundary, so even same-list turns intermittently cost
full prefills.

Registering an option list (pipeline seed or session.update) now fires a
best-effort background prewarm: two throwaway scores with distinct
probes. The first prefills the new option-list prompt; the second,
diverging exactly where per-turn probe text starts, plants the backend's
rewind point (KV checkpoint) at the stable-prefix boundary that every
real turn reuses. The prewarm hides behind the canned mode-switch reply
— by the time it finishes speaking, the cache is warm. Idempotent per
option set, detached from the registering request's lifetime.

Measured on the drone demo (LFM2.5-1.2B, desktop CPU): first turn after
a mode switch 2374ms -> 340ms; intermittent same-list full prefills
(1.3-2.1s) all -> under 0.5s. For clients that swap lists frequently,
options: [parallel:2] on the scoring model additionally keeps one slot
per list via prefix-similarity routing (+26MB RSS, unified KV).

* perf(llama-cpp): checkpoint scoring at the caller-declared stable prefix

Hybrid-memory models (LFM2.5 shortconv, Qwen3.5 deltanet — where new
small models are headed) cannot rewind their state, so any prompt-cache
reuse that needs a rewind falls back to a full re-prefill. For classifier
scoring that meant every probe change re-processed the whole option-list
prompt: the server's checkpoints were placed reactively (at wherever the
previous task happened to diverge), so a checkpoint past the next
divergence was erased rather than restored — measured as intermittent
2-10s turns on prompts with a 95%+ common prefix.

The classifier now computes the probe-invariant prompt prefix once (the
byte-wise common prefix of two synthetic probe renders) and declares its
length with every Score request; the server maps it to a token boundary
and forces a KV checkpoint exactly there on each score prefill. That
checkpoint sits at or before every future divergence under the same
option list, so it always survives and always restores — repeat scoring
costs probe+candidates regardless of how the probe changes.

Also:
- prewarm reruns on every option-list registration instead of memoizing
  per list: with boundary checkpoints a redundant rewarm costs two
  probe-sized decodes, while skipping one after a slot eviction (three
  lists sharing fewer slots evict in LRU cascades) silently moves a full
  re-prefill onto the user's next turn
- new llama.cpp backend option rs_seq:N exposes bounded recurrent-state
  rollback outside speculative decoding; measured impractical for
  deltanet-scale states (65GB for 64 snapshots on Qwen3.5-4B) but cheap
  insurance for small-state models
- docs: the multi-list recipe (parallel:N + sps:0.5 — the default slot
  similarity threshold funnels distinct lists onto one slot)

Measured on the drone demo (LFM2.5-1.2B scorer, desktop CPU), steady
state: every turn 285-421ms including mode switches, vs 2.4s post-switch
and intermittent 1.3-2.9s re-prefills before.

0a8a7fbbb4 chore(llama-cpp): bump llama.cpp and adapt to the load-mode refactor (#11140)
Bump LLAMA_VERSION to 0d47ea7427463093e69128bf2c2f9cd06b3ee5b3 (73 commits
touching common/, src/ and tools/server/). Two upstream changes break the
backend:

* ggml-org/llama.cpp#20834 folded common_params::use_mmap / use_mlock /
  use_direct_io into a single `load_mode` enum. LocalAI still exposes the three
  as independent settings (`mmap`, `mmlock`, and the `direct_io` option), so
  params_parse folds them once all three have been read, keeping the precedence
  the separate booleans had: direct I/O bypasses the page cache, mlock implies
  mmap, everything off is a plain buffered read. turboquant and bonsai compile
  this same grpc-server.cpp against forks that predate the refactor, so
  prepare.sh probes the checkout for LLAMA_LOAD_MODE_MMAP and generates
  llama_compat.h with LOCALAI_LEGACY_LOAD_MODE set accordingly. Probing beats a
  per-fork build flag here because the fork flavor targets disagree on whether
  they forward CMAKE_ARGS or EXTRA_CMAKE_ARGS, and it heals itself once a fork
  rebases past the refactor.

* The MiniMax M3 patch no longer applies. Upstream merged the model half of
  llama.cpp#24523 (LLM_ARCH_MINIMAX_M3, src/models/minimax-m3.cpp, the gguf-py
  constants and conversion/minimax.py) but not the chat half, so the patch is
  re-cut to carry only the common/chat.cpp template detection and PEG parser,
  rebased onto the new pin and onto the thinking_end_tag -> thinking_end_tags
  rename. Dropping it wholesale (as #11008 did, reverted in #11136) would have
  silently regressed MiniMax M3 tool calling and thinking.

Verified with a CPU docker build of the backend plus LoadModel and Predict
against a real GGUF over gRPC in all four load modes.

1cd7d63c7b fix(distributed): reject wrong-model requests on the remaining modalities (#10990)
#10970 gave the four PredictOptions RPCs a model-identity check so a
backend reached through a stale distributed route rejects the request
instead of answering from whatever model it holds (#10952). Every other
modality shares that exposure: the route is cached by host:port, a worker
can recycle a stopped backend's port for another model's backend, and a
liveness-only probe cannot tell a stale row from a valid one.

Extends the same mechanism to the 21 remaining request messages that reach
a backend through the router, using the pattern #10970 established rather
than a parallel one:

- proto: ModelIdentity on each modality request message.
- controller: populated from ModelConfig.Model at the call site that also
  builds ModelOptions, so load-time and request-time values are equal by
  construction.
- backends: one generic guard in pkg/grpc/server.go (27 Go backends), the
  method set in backend/python/common (36 Python backends), llama-cpp
  (AudioTranscription/Stream, Rerank, Score) and privacy-filter
  (TokenClassify).
- reconcile already drops the stale row on IsModelMismatch; no change.

TTSRequest and SoundGenerationRequest get a SEPARATE ModelIdentity field
rather than reusing their existing `model`: FileStagingClient rewrites
`model` to a worker-local path, so comparing it would reject valid
requests in exactly the configuration this guards.

AudioEncode/AudioDecode are deliberately left unguarded: the opus codec
backend is loaded from a literal rather than a ModelConfig, so no value
carries the equality guarantee the comparison depends on. The four
bidirectional stream RPCs are out of scope; they bypass reconcile.

Empty means skip on both sides, so an old controller, an old backend, and
the bare request structs in tests/e2e-backends all keep working.

465d488c90 fix(distributed): reject wrong-model requests at the backend (#10970)
fix(distributed): reject wrong-model requests at the backend (#10952)

In distributed mode the controller caches a NodeModel row naming a backend's
host:port. A worker can recycle a stopped backend's gRPC port for a different
model's backend, and probeHealth verifies liveness rather than identity, so the
probe succeeds against whatever now occupies the port and the request is
dispatched to the wrong backend. The caller gets a silent wrong-model answer.

Nothing in the request could catch this: PredictOptions had no model field, so
model identity crossed the wire only in ModelOptions.Model at LoadModel time,
and the cached-hit path issues no LoadModel. Every backend's "model not loaded"
guard checks a nil handle, which a process holding a different model passes, so
the stale row was never dropped either.

Add PredictOptions.ModelIdentity and enforce it at the point of use:

  - The controller populates it in gRPCPredictOpts from ModelConfig.Model, the
    same expression ModelOptions feeds to model.WithModel and therefore the
    same value the backend received as ModelOptions.Model. Both are read from
    one config value in one function, so they are equal by construction and the
    comparison cannot false-reject.
  - Backends compare it against what they loaded and return NOT_FOUND with a
    fixed sentinel. Enforced in pkg/grpc/server.go (27 Go backends), an
    interceptor in backend/python/common (all 36 Python backends, no
    per-backend change), and the llama-cpp / ik-llama-cpp / ds4 C++ servers.
    That is every backend with real exposure: kokoros answers all four RPCs
    with unimplemented and privacy-filter implements none of them.
  - The router's reconcile drops the stale replica row on a mismatch, so the
    next request reloads somewhere correct.

Empty means "skip the check" on both sides: a controller that predates the
field sends nothing, a backend loaded by such a controller has nothing to
compare, and the C++ server synthesizes PredictOptions internally for ASR. That
keeps upgrades working in both directions.

Scoped to the four PredictOptions RPCs. TTSRequest.model and
SoundGenerationRequest.model are deliberately NOT validated: FileStagingClient
already rewrites them to worker-local absolute paths, so in distributed mode
they already differ from the load-time value and comparing them would reject
valid requests.

IsModelMismatch requires both the NOT_FOUND code and the sentinel, unlike the
neighbouring helpers which accept either. insightface's Embedding returns
NOT_FOUND "no face detected" on a PredictOptions RPC, and a code-only check
would drop a healthy replica row on every faceless image.

a4e6e01e4d fix(process): give backend workers a parent-death safety net (#10639)
* fix(grpc): self-terminate backend workers when LocalAI dies non-gracefully

Symptom: a backend model-worker subprocess (the per-model gRPC server LocalAI
spawns) can be orphaned and linger — holding VRAM and its listen port — if the
LocalAI process is killed non-gracefully (e.g. a supervisor's graceful-shutdown
grace period elapses and LocalAI is SIGKILLed) before its own teardown runs.

Root cause: LocalAI's graceful teardown (pkg/signals/handler.go installs the
SIGINT/SIGTERM handler; core/cli/run.go registers app.Shutdown ->
ModelLoader.StopAllGRPC -> process.Stop in pkg/model/process.go) only runs when
LocalAI receives a catchable signal and survives long enough to run its
handlers. Backends are spawned via github.com/mudler/go-processmanager v0.1.1,
whose getSysProcAttr() sets Setpgid:true (own process group, so the group can be
signalled) but never PR_SET_PDEATHSIG/Pdeathsig, and exposes no Config field or
option for a caller to inject/extend SysProcAttr. LocalAI fully delegates
spawning to that library (it never builds the exec.Cmd itself), so it cannot set
a kernel parent-death signal at the spawn site. If LocalAI is SIGKILLed, nothing
tells the backend to exit and it is reparented to init.

Fix: add a best-effort, backend-side safety net at the one shared choke point
every out-of-process Go backend routes through — grpc.StartServer / RunServer in
pkg/grpc. On startup it captures getppid() and polls; when the process is
reparented (getppid changes / becomes 1 — the standard POSIX signal the original
parent died) it logs and self-terminates. getppid() reparent detection is
portable (Linux + macOS), unlike Linux-only PR_SET_PDEATHSIG. Toggle via
LOCALAI_BACKEND_PARENT_WATCH (default on; off on Windows) and
LOCALAI_BACKEND_PARENT_WATCH_INTERVAL. This is strictly a backstop alongside the
existing graceful SIGTERM->grace->SIGKILL teardown, which is unchanged.

Scope/limitations: covers Go-based backends (everything using pkg/grpc). The
C++ backends (e.g. llama-cpp) and Python backends do not route through
pkg/grpc and are not covered by this mechanism — they would each need an
equivalent parent-death check (follow-up). The fully general fix is for
go-processmanager to expose SysProcAttr injection so LocalAI can set Pdeathsig
at spawn for every backend regardless of language (suggested upstream follow-up;
out of scope for this LocalAI-only PR).

Test: pkg/grpc/parentwatch_test.go builds a real test -> middle -> grandchild
process tree, lets the middle process exit to orphan the grandchild running the
real watchParentDeath, and asserts it detects the reparent and self-terminates.
Unix-only (build-tagged), runs in CI (Linux).

* fix(process): extend parent-death backstop to C++ and Python backends

The Go parent-death watcher (pkg/grpc/parentwatch.go, commit 772b435d5)
only protects backends that route through pkg/grpc. C++ and Python
backends don't, so the originally-reported case — the llama.cpp gRPC
worker surviving a non-graceful LocalAI death — was still uncovered.

Extend the same best-effort backstop to both languages, reusing the
exact mechanism and semantics:

- capture getppid() at startup, skip if already orphaned (<=1)
- a background thread polls getppid() and self-exits on reparenting
  (getppid() != orig || == 1), portable across Linux/macOS, no-op on
  Windows
- same env vars: LOCALAI_BACKEND_PARENT_WATCH (default on; falsy
  false/0/no/off disable) and LOCALAI_BACKEND_PARENT_WATCH_INTERVAL
  (default 2s; accepts Go-style durations like 500ms/2s/1m)

C++: implemented in backend/cpp/llama-cpp (the reported, most-used C++
backend) as a dependency-free header parent_watch.h, wired into
grpc-server.cpp's main() and copied at build time via prepare.sh. C++
backends have no shared server scaffolding, so other C++ backends
(ds4, ik-llama-cpp, privacy-filter, ...) are not yet covered and would
each need the same one-line include+call as follow-ups.

Python: implemented once in the shared common/parent_watch.py and armed
from common/grpc_auth.py's get_auth_interceptors() — the single helper
every one of the 35 Python backends invokes while building its gRPC
server — so all Python backends (and future ones) are covered with no
per-backend edits and no duplicated implementation.

Tests (real process-tree reparent detection, mirroring the Go test):
- backend/cpp/llama-cpp/parent_watch_test.cpp (via run-unit-tests.sh)
- backend/python/common/parent_watch_test.py (python -m unittest)

* fix(llama-cpp): link server-stream.cpp TU into grpc-server for upstream 0ed235ea (#10536)

Upstream llama.cpp 0ed235ea added an SSE stream-resumption layer in a new
translation unit tools/server/server-stream.cpp, which defines
stream_session, stream_pipe_producer and the g_stream_sessions manager.
server-context.cpp (already #included into grpc-server.cpp) now calls into
it via spipe->cleanup(), stream_aware_should_stop() and
stream_session_attach_pipe(), so without the new TU the grpc-server link
fails on every arch with:

  undefined reference to `stream_pipe_producer::cleanup()'

prepare.sh already copies every tools/server/* file into tools/grpc-server/,
so the source is present; the only missing piece was including its
definitions. Add an __has_include-guarded #include "server-stream.cpp"
before server-context.cpp, mirroring the existing server-chat.cpp and
server-schema.cpp guards, keeping the source compatible with older
pins/forks that predate the split. The file is self-contained (its only
external symbols come from server-common, already in the TU) so it adds no
new undefined references; the http route-handler factories it also defines
are unused in the grpc path but harmless.

f0d0bff232 fix(llama-cpp): stop reinterpreting plain-string message content as JSON (#10524) (#10538)
The llama-cpp gRPC backend reconstructs OpenAI messages from proto for the
tokenizer-template path and blindly json::parse'd each message's content
string. LocalAI's Go layer always flattens content to a plain string, so a
user prompt that merely looks like JSON (e.g. mealie's ingredient array
["1/4 cup brown sugar", ...]) was reinterpreted as structured content parts and
rejected by oaicompat_chat_params_parse with "unsupported content[].type".

Normalize content per role instead: user/system/developer content is opaque
text and is never JSON-sniffed; assistant/tool content still collapses a literal
JSON null/object (tool-call bookkeeping) to a string, but a plain string is
never turned into an array/scalar. The array defense is role-independent, so the
role gate only governs the benign null/object case.

While here, extract the duplicated per-message reconstruction and the
pre-template content sanitization into shared, unit-tested helpers
(message_content.h) so the streaming (PredictStream) and non-streaming (Predict)
paths cannot drift. This removes ~490 lines of copy-pasted defensive code, the
dead tool-role parse branches, and the redundant Predict-only tool_calls branch,
while preserving the prior #7324 (null content -> "") and #7528 (tool array
content -> string) fixes.

Tests:
- backend/cpp/llama-cpp/message_content_test.cpp: standalone C++ unit tests for
  all three helpers (#10524, #7324, #7528, multimodal), discovered and run by
  `make test-backend-cpp` and a new generic tests-backend-cpp CI job. Also wired
  as an opt-in CMake/ctest target (-DLLAMA_GRPC_BUILD_TESTS=ON).
- core/schema/message_test.go: Go regression pinning that ToProto flattens a
  JSON-array-looking text part to the verbatim string.
- prepare.sh now copies message_content.h into the build tree.

back().pattern == nullptr assertion (crash) or being silently dropped.
Move all three termination/padding blocks to the end of params_parse,
after both the named-option loop and common_params_parse have pushed
their real entries. Also widen the exit()-flag skip list so --version,
--license, --list-devices and --cache-list cannot terminate the backend.

out of the static server_task::params_from_json_cmpl into the new

The grpc-server unity build still called the old static member, breaking
every llama-cpp backend build with "no member named 'params_from_json_cmpl'
in 'server_task'".

Pull server-schema.cpp into the translation unit and call the new function,
keeping both guarded by __has_include so forks that predate the split (e.g.
llama-cpp-turboquant, which still exposes params_from_json_cmpl) keep
compiling against the old static member.

085fc53bbc fix(router): production-ready request router + auto-size batch for embedding/rerank (#10104)
* fix(router): score classifier production-readiness

Conversation trimming runs through the classifier model's chat template
and trims by exact token count, sized to the model's n_batch which is
now scaled to context so long probes can't crash the backend. Missing
chat_message templates are a hard error at router build time. Router-
facing factories (Embedder/Scorer/Reranker/TokenCounter) re-resolve
ModelConfig per call so a model installed post-startup doesn't bind a
stub Backend="" config and silently fall into the loader's auto-
iterate path.

New 'vector_store' backend trace recorded inside localVectorStore on
every Search/Insert — including the backend-load-failure path that
previously vanished into an xlog.Warn — with outcome tagging
(hit/miss/empty_store/backend_load_error/find_error/insert_error/ok).
Companion cleanup drops misleading similarity:0 and input_tokens_count:0
from non-hit and text-mode traces.

Gallery local-store-development aliases to 'local-store' so the master
image satisfies pkg/model.LocalStoreBackend lookups from the embedding
cache.

Misc: llama-cpp TokenizeString reads the correct 'prompt' JSON key
(the original bug); ModelTokenize nil-guard; non-fatal mitm proxy
startup; PII 'route_local' renamed to 'allow' with docs/UI in sync;
model-editor footer no longer eats the edit area on small screens;
several config-editor template/dropdown/section fixes.

Tests: e2e router specs (casual/code-hint + long-conversation trim),
vector_store trace specs, lazy-factory specs, gallery dev-alias
resolution, Playwright trace badge + scroll regression.

* feat(backend): auto-size batch to context for embedding and rerank models

Embedding and rerank models pool over the whole input in a single physical batch (n_ubatch). With batch left at the 512 default, the backend rejects longer inputs with "input is too large to process", silently capping a large-context embedder (e.g. 8k/32k) at 512 tokens. Size n_batch to the context for these single-pass usecases, mirroring the existing FLAG_SCORE behaviour; an explicit batch: still wins.

Extracts EffectiveContextSize/EffectiveBatchSize from grpcModelOpts so the effective decode window has one home for other callers to reuse.

Adds an e2e-aio regression test that embeds a >512-token input. The AIO embedding model is switched to nomic-embed-text-v1.5 (2048 context) because the previous granite model was capped at 512 tokens and could not exercise the larger batch.

* fix(gallery): raise arch-router scoring output cap via parallel:64

Scoring decodes the whole prompt+candidate in a single llama_decode and

GGML_ASSERT(n_outputs_max <= cparams.n_outputs_max) on multi-token route
labels. Set options: [parallel:64] on both arch-router quant entries to
lift the cap; kv_unified (the grpc-server default) keeps the full context
per sequence, so this does not split the KV cache.

unaffected). Vendor a one-line fix (null sp->stdin_file after fclose)
via prepare.sh's patches/ until upstream merges it.

- Create the device event in ggml_backend_cuda_device_event_new with the

its llama.cpp base fails to compile the flash-attention MMA f16 kernels for
head-dim 640 under HIP (cols_per_warp evaluates to 0 -> division-by-zero /
non-constant static asserts in fattn-mma-f16.cuh). That is a deep
ggml-on-ROCm kernel issue, not something a small fork patch can paper over.

Drop -gpu-rocm-hipblas-turboquant from the build matrix so turboquant still
ships for cpu / cublas / vulkan / sycl. Re-add it once the fork's HIP path
compiles (or upstream ggml fixes the large-head-dim MMA kernels for ROCm).

e837921c2c feat: forward reasoning_effort to the backend so jinja models honor it (#10184)
* feat: forward reasoning_effort to the backend so jinja models honor it

reasoning_effort was only mapped to the binary enable_thinking toggle and
otherwise reached Go-side templates — it was never sent to the backend. So
jinja-templated models whose chat template keys on reasoning_effort (gpt-oss
Harmony, LFM2.5) could not be driven by it: LFM2.5 ignores enable_thinking and
kept emitting <think>.

Forward the effective reasoning_effort to the backend as a chat_template_kwarg
(mirroring enable_thinking) in grpc-server.cpp, and put it in PredictOptions
metadata (gRPCPredictOpts). Add a config-level default: ModelConfig.reasoning_effort
and Pipeline.reasoning_effort, resolved by ModelConfig.ApplyReasoningEffort
(request value overrides config default, none->disable / level->enable, an
operator's reasoning.disable wins). request.go now uses that helper.

realtime pipeline disable thinking on models that only honor reasoning_effort
(e.g. LFM2.5), which enable_thinking can't.

* fix(llama-cpp): skip begin-of-stream null partial in PredictStream

Upstream llama.cpp (ggml-org/llama.cpp#23884), pulled in by this bump,
now emits an initial "begin" partial whose to_json() returns null. It
exists only to signal the HTTP layer to flush 200 status headers before
any token is produced.

gRPC has no such concept, and PredictStream had no guard: the null result
was fed straight into build_reply_from_json, which threw an uncaught
exception. That surfaced as a generic "Unexpected error in RPC handling"
and the task was cancelled the instant it launched, breaking the
PredictStream e2e spec.

Skip null results in both the first-result handling and the streaming
loop, mirroring upstream's own `if (first_result_json == nullptr)` guard.

1c92b00918 fix(turboquant): guard upstream-only grpc-server fields for fork (#10043)
fix(turboquant): guard upstream-only grpc-server fields for fork build

backend/cpp/llama-cpp/grpc-server.cpp is reused by the turboquant build,
which compiles against an older llama.cpp fork (TheTom/llama-cpp-turboquant).
Two recent changes added references to upstream-only struct fields outside the
existing LOCALAI_LEGACY_LLAMA_CPP_SPEC guards:

  - common_params::checkpoint_min_step (default + option handler), added with
    the ggml-org/llama.cpp 35c9b1f3 bump (#9998)
  - the common_params_speculative::draft tensor_buft_overrides sentinel
    termination (#9919), which sat after the guard's #endif

The fork has neither field, so grpc-server.cpp failed to compile for every
turboquant flavor. Wrap the three references in #ifndef
LOCALAI_LEGACY_LLAMA_CPP_SPEC, matching the existing fork-compat guards, so the
stock llama-cpp build is unchanged and the fork build skips them. Update
patch-grpc-server.sh's doc comment to record what the macro now gates out.

Verified by a local fallback-flavor turboquant build: grpc-server.cpp compiles
against the fork and the backend image builds.

Upstream llama.cpp renamed common_params::checkpoint_every_nt to
checkpoint_min_step and changed its default from 8192 to 256. The semantics
also shifted: it used to enforce a fixed checkpoint cadence during prefill,
now it sets a minimum spacing between context checkpoints. Track the new
field name in grpc-server.cpp and accept the old option names as backward-
compatible aliases for users with existing configs.

6a80e23733 feat(middleware): Model routing, PII filtering, Cloud model proxies (#9802)
Add a routing middleware stack and a cloud-proxy backend.

* cloud-proxy: a Go gRPC backend that forwards OpenAI- and
  Anthropic-shaped chat requests to upstream providers, with an
  optional translate mode (OpenAI request -> Anthropic /v1/messages
  -> OpenAI response) and full tool-calling support.

* routing: admission control, content-aware model routing
  (embedding cache + classifier + rerank + Arch-Router score),
  PII detection/redaction (regex + NER) with streaming filter and
  OpenAI/Anthropic adapters, and a per-user/per-key billing recorder
  backed by GORM or in-memory storage.

* middleware: UsageMiddleware records usage via the billing recorder,
  plus admission, route-model, usage-stamp and trace middlewares.

* observability: BackendTrace ring buffer stores full request bodies
  (capped), MITM proxy emits structured trace events, and router
  classifier decisions surface at /api/router/decide.

* gallery: Arch-Router-1.5B (Q4_K_M and Q8_0).

* UI: cloud-proxy model-editor fields, classifier system-prompt and
  score-normalization config, and a Traces page rendering request
  bodies.

959de86761 feat(llama-cpp): make server-side prompt cache work by default (#9925)
Aligns LocalAI's llama-cpp gRPC backend with upstream's auto-on prompt
cache path so repeated system prompts (agents, OpenAI/Anthropic-compatible
CLIs, coding assistants) skip prefill on subsequent calls without any
YAML changes. Reported in #9921.

Upstream's server enables `kv_unified=true` (and bumps `n_parallel` to 4)
when slot count is auto, which unlocks `cache_idle_slots`. LocalAI
hardcodes `n_parallel=1` and so far also hardcoded `kv_unified=false`,
which silently force-disables idle-slot saving at server init. The host
prompt cache was allocated but never written across requests.

Changes in backend/cpp/llama-cpp/grpc-server.cpp:
- params.kv_unified: false -> true (single-slot path now benefits from
  the prompt cache; users can opt out with `kv_unified:false`)
- params.n_ctx_checkpoints: 8 -> 32 (match upstream default)
- params.cache_idle_slots = true initialized explicitly (upstream default)
- params.checkpoint_every_nt = 8192 initialized explicitly (upstream default)
- New option parsers: cache_idle_slots / idle_slots_cache,
  checkpoint_every_nt / checkpoint_every_n_tokens

Docs:
- features/text-generation.md: fix misleading `cache_ram` description
  (it's the host-side prompt cache, not the KV cache), document the
  kv_unified + cache_ram + cache_idle_slots interaction, add rows for
  the two newly-exposed options, and add a worked example for the
  agent/CLI workload from the issue.
- advanced/model-configuration.md: mark the legacy `prompt_cache_path`
  / `prompt_cache_all` / `prompt_cache_ro` YAML fields as unused by the
  llama-cpp gRPC backend (they target upstream's CLI completion tool
  and are not consumed by grpc-server.cpp) and point readers at the
  new prompt-cache explainer.

Closes #9921

c68818a62e fix(llama-cpp): terminate tensor_buft_overrides with sentinel (#9919)
llama.cpp's model loader asserts back().pattern == nullptr on
params.tensor_buft_overrides (and on params.kv_overrides.back().key[0]
== 0) before binding them into llama_model_params. PR #8560 attempted
to satisfy llama_params_fit's placeholder requirement by pre-filling
params.tensor_buft_overrides up to llama_max_tensor_buft_overrides()
*before* the option-parse loop. Any subsequent push_back from
override_tensor / draft_cpu_moe / draft_n_cpu_moe / draft_override_tensor
then appended real entries after the placeholders, leaving back() with
a real pattern and tripping the assert. The draft override vector
likewise had no terminator at all.

Mirror upstream common/arg.cpp:645-658 instead: real entries are
pushed during option parsing, and after parsing we pad the main vector
up to ntbo (placeholders land at the end, so back() is always nullptr)
and append a single {nullptr, nullptr} to the draft vector when it is
non-empty. The existing kv_overrides terminator block already matches
upstream and stays.

Verified against ggml-org/llama.cpp@5cbaa5e: only tensor_buft_overrides
(main + draft) and kv_overrides are sentinel-terminated common_params
fields; everything else is size-driven std::vector.

6e1dbae256 feat(llama-cpp): expose 12 missing common_params via options[] (#9814)
The llama.cpp backend already accepts a free-form options: array in the
model config that maps to common_params fields, but a coverage audit
against upstream pin 7f3f843c flagged 12 user-visible knobs that were
neither set via the typed proto fields nor reachable via options:.

Wire them up under the existing if/else chain in params_parse, before
the speculative section. Each new option follows the file's prevailing
patterns (try/catch around numeric parses, the same true/1/yes/on bool
form used elsewhere, hardware_concurrency() fallback for thread counts,
mirror of draft_override_tensor for override_tensor).

Top-level / batching / IO:
  - n_ubatch (alias ubatch) -- physical batch size; was previously
    force-aliased to n_batch at line 482, blocking embedding/rerank
    workloads that need independent control
  - threads_batch (alias n_threads_batch) -- main-model batch threads;
    mirrors the existing draft_threads_batch
  - direct_io (alias use_direct_io) -- O_DIRECT model loads
  - verbosity -- llama.cpp log threshold (line 479 had this commented
    out)
  - override_tensor (alias tensor_buft_overrides) -- per-tensor buffer
    overrides for the main model; mirrors draft_override_tensor

Embedding / multimodal:
  - pooling_type (alias pooling) -- mean/cls/last/rank/none; previously
    only auto-flipped to RANK for rerankers
  - embd_normalize (alias embedding_normalize) -- and the embedding
    handler now reads params_base.embd_normalize instead of a hardcoded
    2 at the previous embd_normalize literal in Embedding()
  - mmproj_use_gpu (alias mmproj_offload) -- mmproj on CPU vs GPU
  - image_min_tokens / image_max_tokens -- per-image vision token budget

Reasoning surface (the audit-focus three; LocalAI's existing
ReasoningConfig.DisableReasoning only feeds the per-request
chat_template_kwargs.enable_thinking and does not touch any of these):
  - reasoning_format -- none/auto/deepseek/deepseek-legacy parser
  - enable_reasoning (alias reasoning_budget) -- -1/0/>0 thinking budget
  - prefill_assistant -- trailing-assistant-message prefill toggle

All 14 referenced fields exist on both the upstream pin and the
turboquant fork's common.h, so no LOCALAI_LEGACY_LLAMA_CPP_SPEC guard
is needed.

Docs: extend model-configuration.md with new "Reasoning Models",
"Multimodal Backend Options", "Embedding & Reranking Backend Options",
and "Other Backend Tuning Options" subsections; also refresh the
Speculative Type Values table to show the new dash-separated canonical
names alongside the underscore aliases LocalAI still accepts.

* fix(llama-cpp): adapt to upstream COMMON_SPECULATIVE_TYPE_DRAFT rename

ggml-org/llama.cpp#22964 ("spec: update CLI arguments for better
consistency") renamed the speculative type enum values:
  COMMON_SPECULATIVE_TYPE_DRAFT  -> COMMON_SPECULATIVE_TYPE_DRAFT_SIMPLE
  COMMON_SPECULATIVE_TYPE_EAGLE3 -> COMMON_SPECULATIVE_TYPE_DRAFT_EAGLE3
and the registered name strings flipped from underscore- to dash-
separated form (e.g. ngram_simple -> ngram-simple), with the bare
draft/eagle3 aliases replaced by draft-simple/draft-eagle3.

This broke the build with the new LLAMA_VERSION on every variant
(vulkan/arm64, darwin and likely all the rest) at grpc-server.cpp:461.

Update the upstream branch of the speculative-type fallback to use the
new identifier (the LOCALAI_LEGACY_LLAMA_CPP_SPEC fork branch keeps the
old name), and normalize spec_type option tokens before passing them to
common_speculative_types_from_names so existing model configs that say
spec_type:draft / spec_type:ngram_simple keep working.

bc4cd3dd85 feat(llama-cpp): bump to 1ec7ba0c, adapt grpc-server, expose new spec-decoding options (#9765)
* chore(llama.cpp): bump to 1ec7ba0c14f33f17e980daeeda5f35b225d41994

Picks up the upstream `spec : parallel drafting support` change
(ggml-org/llama.cpp#22838) which reshapes the speculative-decoding API
and `server_context_impl`.

Adapt the grpc-server wrapper accordingly:

  * `common_params_speculative::type` (single enum) became `types`
    (`std::vector<common_speculative_type>`). Update both the
    "default to draft when a draft model is set" branch and the
    `spec_type`/`speculative_type` option parser. The parser now also
    tolerates comma-separated lists, mirroring the upstream
    `common_speculative_types_from_names` semantics.
  * `common_params_speculative_draft::n_ctx` is gone (draft now shares
    the target context size). Keep the `draft_ctx_size` option name for
    backward compatibility and ignore the value rather than failing.
  * `server_context_impl::model` was renamed to `model_tgt`; update the
    two reranker / model-metadata call sites.

Replaces #9763. Builds cleanly under the linux/amd64 cpu-llama-cpp
target locally.

* feat(llama-cpp): expose new speculative-decoding option keys

Upstream `spec : parallel drafting support` (ggml-org/llama.cpp#22838)
adds the `ngram_mod`, `ngram_map_k`, and `ngram_map_k4v` speculative
families and beefs up the draft-model knobs. The previous bump only
adapted the API; this exposes the new fields through the grpc-server
options dictionary so model configs can drive them.

New `options:` keys (all under `backend: llama-cpp`):

ngram_mod (`ngram_mod` type):
  spec_ngram_mod_n_min / spec_ngram_mod_n_max / spec_ngram_mod_n_match

ngram_map_k (`ngram_map_k` type):
  spec_ngram_map_k_size_n / spec_ngram_map_k_size_m / spec_ngram_map_k_min_hits

ngram_map_k4v (`ngram_map_k4v` type):
  spec_ngram_map_k4v_size_n / spec_ngram_map_k4v_size_m /
  spec_ngram_map_k4v_min_hits

ngram lookup caches (`ngram_cache` type):
  spec_lookup_cache_static / lookup_cache_static
  spec_lookup_cache_dynamic / lookup_cache_dynamic

Draft-model tuning (active when `spec_type` is `draft`):
  draft_cache_type_k / spec_draft_cache_type_k
  draft_cache_type_v / spec_draft_cache_type_v
  draft_threads / spec_draft_threads
  draft_threads_batch / spec_draft_threads_batch
  draft_cpu_moe / spec_draft_cpu_moe          (bool flag)
  draft_n_cpu_moe / spec_draft_n_cpu_moe      (first N MoE layers on CPU)
  draft_override_tensor / spec_draft_override_tensor
    (comma-separated <tensor regex>=<buffer type>; re-implements upstream's
     static parse_tensor_buffer_overrides since it isn't exported)

`spec_type` already accepted comma-separated lists after the previous
commit, matching upstream's `common_speculative_types_from_names`.

Docs: refresh `docs/content/advanced/model-configuration.md` with
per-family tables and a note about multi-type chaining.

Builds locally with `make docker-build-llama-cpp` (linux/amd64
cpu-llama-cpp AVX variant).

* fix(turboquant): bridge new llama.cpp spec API to the legacy fork layout

The previous commits in this series adapted backend/cpp/llama-cpp/grpc-server.cpp
to the post-#22838 (parallel drafting) llama.cpp API. The turboquant build
reuses the same grpc-server.cpp through backend/cpp/turboquant/Makefile,
which copies it into turboquant-<flavor>-build/ and runs patch-grpc-server.sh
on the copy. The fork branched before the API refactor, so it errors out on:

  * `ctx_server.impl->model_tgt` (fork still has `model`)
  * `params.speculative.{ngram_mod,ngram_map_k,ngram_map_k4v,ngram_cache}.*`
    (none of these sub-structs exist in the fork)
  * `params.speculative.draft.{cache_type_k/v, cpuparams[, _batch].n_threads,
    tensor_buft_overrides}` (fork uses the pre-#22397 flat layout)
  * `params.speculative.types` vector / `common_speculative_types_from_names`
    (fork has a scalar `type` and only the singular helper)

Approach:

1. backend/cpp/llama-cpp/grpc-server.cpp: introduce a single feature switch
   `LOCALAI_LEGACY_LLAMA_CPP_SPEC`. When defined, the two `speculative.type[s]`
   discriminations (the "default to draft when a draft model is set" branch
   and the `spec_type` / `speculative_type` option parser) fall back to the
   singular scalar form, and the entire new-option block (ngram_mod / map_k
   / map_k4v / ngram_cache / draft.{cache_type_*, cpuparams*,
   tensor_buft_overrides}) is preprocessed out. The macro is *not* defined
   in the source tree — stock llama-cpp builds get the full new API.

2. backend/cpp/turboquant/patch-grpc-server.sh: two new patch steps applied
   to the per-flavor build copy at turboquant-<flavor>-build/grpc-server.cpp:
   - substitute `ctx_server.impl->model_tgt` -> `ctx_server.impl->model`
   - inject `#define LOCALAI_LEGACY_LLAMA_CPP_SPEC 1` before the first
     `#include`, so the guarded blocks above drop out for the fork build.

   Both patches are idempotent and follow the existing sed/awk pattern in
   this script (KV cache types, `get_media_marker`, flat speculative
   renames). Stock llama-cpp's `grpc-server.cpp` is never touched.

Drop both legacy patches once the turboquant fork rebases past
ggml-org/llama.cpp#22397 / #22838.

* fix(turboquant): close draft_ctx_size brace inside legacy guard

The previous turboquant fix wrapped the new option-handler blocks in
`#ifndef LOCALAI_LEGACY_LLAMA_CPP_SPEC ... #endif` but placed the guard
in the middle of an `else if` chain — the `} else if` openings of the
new blocks were responsible for closing the previous block's brace.
With the macro defined the new blocks vanish, draft_ctx_size's `{`
loses its closer, the for-loop's `}` is consumed instead, and the
file ends with a stray opening brace — clang reports it as
`function-definition is not allowed here before '{'` on the next
top-level `int main(...)` and `expected '}' at end of input`.

Move the chain split inside the draft_ctx_size branch:

    } else if (... "draft_ctx_size") {
        // ...
#ifdef LOCALAI_LEGACY_LLAMA_CPP_SPEC
    }                                  // legacy: chain ends here
#else
    } else if (... "spec_ngram_mod_n_min") {  // modern: chain continues
        ...
    } else if (... "draft_override_tensor") {
        ...
    }                                  // closes last branch
#endif
    }                                  // closes for-loop

Brace count is now balanced under both preprocessor branches (verified
with `tr -cd '{' | wc -c` against the patched and unpatched outputs).

Local `make docker-build-turboquant` builds the linux/amd64 cpu-llama-cpp
`turboquant-avx` variant cleanly.

* fix(ci): forward AMDGPU_TARGETS into Dockerfile.turboquant builder-prebuilt

Dockerfile.turboquant's `builder-prebuilt` stage was missing the
`ARG AMDGPU_TARGETS` / `ENV AMDGPU_TARGETS=${AMDGPU_TARGETS}` pair that
`builder-fromsource` already has (and that `Dockerfile.llama-cpp`
mirrors across both stages). When CI uses the prebuilt base image
(quay.io/go-skynet/ci-cache:base-grpc-*, the common path) the build-arg
passed by the workflow never reaches the env inside the compile stage.

backend/cpp/llama-cpp/Makefile:38 (introduced by #9626) errors out on
hipblas builds when AMDGPU_TARGETS is empty, and the turboquant
Makefile reuses backend/cpp/llama-cpp via a sibling build dir, so the
same check fires from turboquant-fallback under BUILD_TYPE=hipblas:

  Makefile:38: *** AMDGPU_TARGETS is empty — set it to a comma-separated
  list of gfx targets e.g. gfx1100,gfx1101.  Stop.
  make: *** [Makefile:66: turboquant-fallback] Error 2

The bug is latent on master because the docker layer cache stays warm
across builds — the compile step rarely re-runs from scratch. The
llama.cpp bump in this PR invalidates the cache, so the missing env var
becomes load-bearing and the hipblas turboquant CI job fails.

Mirror the existing pattern from Dockerfile.llama-cpp.

c02a50f2ab feat(llama-cpp): bump to d775992 and adapt to spec params refactor (#9618)
Bumps backend/cpp/llama-cpp/Makefile LLAMA_VERSION from 665abc6 to
d775992, picking up upstream PR ggml-org/llama.cpp#22397 which splits
common_params_speculative into nested draft / ngram_simple / ngram_mod
sub-structs. Renames every grpc-server.cpp reference to match:

  speculative.mparams_dft.path  -> speculative.draft.mparams.path
  speculative.{n_max,n_min}     -> speculative.draft.{n_max,n_min}
  speculative.{p_min,p_split}   -> speculative.draft.{p_min,p_split}
  speculative.{n_gpu_layers,n_ctx} -> speculative.draft.{n_gpu_layers,n_ctx}
  speculative.ngram_size_n      -> speculative.ngram_simple.size_n
  speculative.ngram_size_m      -> speculative.ngram_simple.size_m
  speculative.ngram_min_hits    -> speculative.ngram_simple.min_hits

The "speculative.n_max" JSON key sent to the upstream server stays
unchanged — server-task.cpp still reads it and routes the value into
draft.n_max internally.

The turboquant fork (TheTom/llama-cpp-turboquant @ 11a241d) branched
before #22397 and still exposes the flat layout. Since turboquant
reuses the shared backend/cpp/llama-cpp/grpc-server.cpp, extend
patch-grpc-server.sh with an idempotent sed block that reverts the
ten field references back to the legacy flat names on the build copy
only — the original under backend/cpp/llama-cpp/ stays compiling
against vanilla upstream. Drop the block once the fork rebases.

ik-llama-cpp has its own grpc-server.cpp with no speculative refs
(0/2661 lines), so it is unaffected.

Validated locally with `make docker-build-llama-cpp` (avx, avx2,
avx512, fallback, grpc + rpc-server all built; image exported).

21eace40ec feat(llama-cpp): expose split_mode option for multi-GPU placement (#9560)
Adds split_mode (alias sm) to the llama.cpp backend options allowlist,
accepting none|layer|row|tensor. The tensor value targets the experimental
backend-agnostic tensor parallelism from ggml-org/llama.cpp#19378 and
requires a llama.cpp build that includes that PR, FlashAttention enabled,
KV-cache quantization disabled, and a manually set context size.

ed648b3b4e fix(llama-cpp): include server-chat.cpp in grpc-server translation unit (#9511)
* fix(llama-cpp): include server-chat.cpp in grpc-server translation unit

Upstream llama.cpp refactor (ggml-org/llama.cpp#20690) moved the
OAI/Anthropic/Responses and transcription conversion helpers out of
server-common.cpp into a new server-chat.cpp, and server-task.cpp and
server-context.cpp now call those symbols (convert_transcriptions_to_chatcmpl,
server_chat_convert_responses_to_chatcmpl, server_chat_convert_anthropic_to_oai,
server_chat_msg_diff_to_json_oaicompat) via server-chat.h.

grpc-server.cpp builds as a single translation unit by #include-ing the
upstream .cpp files directly. Without including server-chat.cpp, the
declarations are satisfied at compile time via server-chat.h but the
link step fails with undefined references once LLAMA_VERSION crosses
the refactor commit (134d6e54).

Guard the include with __has_include so the same source stays buildable
on older LLAMA_VERSION pins that predate the refactor (where prepare.sh
won't copy server-chat.cpp into tools/grpc-server/).

* chore(llama-cpp): bump LLAMA_VERSION to 0d0764dfd

Bump to ggml-org/llama.cpp@0d0764dfd2.
Paired with the preceding grpc-server server-chat.cpp include so the
refactor at 134d6e54 links cleanly. Supersedes PR #9494.

7809c5f5d0 fix(vision): propagate mtmd media marker from backend via ModelMetadata (#9412)
Upstream llama.cpp (PR #21962) switched the server-side mtmd media
marker to a random per-server string and removed the legacy
"<__media__>" backward-compat replacement in mtmd_tokenizer. The
Go layer still emitted the hardcoded "<__media__>", so on the
non-tokenizer-template path the prompt arrived with a marker mtmd
did not recognize and tokenization failed with "number of bitmaps
(1) does not match number of markers (0)".

Report the active media marker via ModelMetadataResponse.media_marker
and substitute the sentinel "<__media__>" with it right before the
gRPC call, after the backend has been loaded and probed. Also skip
the Go-side multimodal templating entirely when UseTokenizerTemplate
is true — llama.cpp's oaicompat_chat_params_parse already injects its
own marker and StringContent is unused in that path. Backends that do
not expose the field keep the legacy "<__media__>" behavior.

9748a1cbc6 fix(streaming): skip chat deltas for role-init elements to prevent first token duplication (#9299)
When TASK_RESPONSE_TYPE_OAI_CHAT is used, the first streaming token
produces a JSON array with two elements: a role-init chunk and the
actual content chunk. The grpc-server loop called attach_chat_deltas
for both elements with the same raw_result pointer, stamping the first
token's ChatDelta.Content on both replies. The Go side accumulated both,
emitting the first content token twice to SSE clients.

Fix: in the array iteration loops in PredictStream, detect role-init
elements (delta has "role" key) and skip attach_chat_deltas for them.
Only content/reasoning elements get chat deltas attached.

Reasoning models are unaffected because their first token goes into
reasoning_content, not content.

53deeb1107 fix(reasoning): suppress partial tag tokens during autoparser warm-up
The C++ PEG parser needs a few tokens to identify the reasoning format
(e.g. "<|channel>thought\n" for Gemma 4). During this warm-up, the gRPC
layer was sending raw partial tag tokens to Go, which leaked into the
reasoning field.

- Clear reply.message in gRPC when autoparser is active but has no diffs
  yet, matching llama.cpp server behavior of only emitting classified output
- Prefer C++ autoparser chat deltas for reasoning/content in all streaming
  paths, falling back to Go-side extraction for backends without autoparser
  (e.g. vLLM)
- Override non-streaming no-tools result with chat delta content when available
- Guard PrependThinkingTokenIfNeeded against partial tag prefixes during
  streaming accumulation
- Reorder default thinking tokens so <|channel>thought is checked before
  <|think|> (Gemma 4 templates contain both)
