6eea3ef2ac fix(backends): make backend install ops idempotent unless forced (#10643)
* fix(backends): make backend install ops idempotent unless forced

POST /backends/apply hardcoded force=true through
LocalBackendManager.InstallBackend, so applying an already-installed
backend re-downloaded and re-extracted the whole artifact every time.
API clients that ensure a backend exists at startup paid a full OCI
image pull on every boot.

Backend install ops now default to non-forced — an installed, runnable
backend short-circuits (the orphaned-meta reinstall path in
InstallBackendFromGallery is preserved) — and reinstall stays available:

- ManagementOp gains a Force field; the local manager passes it through
  instead of hardcoding true.
- /backends/apply accepts an optional "force" boolean in the body.
- The React UI install route keeps forcing, since its button doubles as
  the explicit "Reinstall backend" action.

Distributed installs already behaved this way (workers skip when the
binary exists unless force is set); this aligns single-node behavior.

* fix(backends): don't force-reinstall LOCALAI_EXTERNAL_BACKENDS on boot

The startup loop for LOCALAI_EXTERNAL_BACKENDS runs
InstallExternalBackend for each listed backend on every boot, and its
gallery-name path hardcoded force=true — so every start re-downloaded
and re-extracted each listed backend's OCI image even when it was
installed and runnable. Supervising apps that list several backends
paid several full OCI pulls per launch.

Give InstallExternalBackend an explicit force parameter (it only
affects the gallery-name fallback; URI installs always write) and pass:

- false from the boot loop and `local-ai backends install` (idempotent
  ensure — `backends upgrade` is the refresh path),
- op.Force from the local manager's external-URI op,
- the request's force on the worker install path and true on its
  upgrade path (behavior unchanged).

92dea961c2 fix: distributed backend reinstall/upgrade UI stuck on 'reinstalling' (#10214)
* fix(galleryop): self-evict terminal ops from OpCache.GetStatus

The processingBackends map (the UI 'reinstalling' spinner source) only cleared
an op when a client polled /api/backends/job/:uid. The Manage-page Reinstall and
Upgrade buttons never poll, so completed installs leaked into processingBackends
forever and the backend card spun 'reinstalling' even though the install had
finished. Evict terminal ops on the list read instead; DeleteUUID already
broadcasts the eviction so peer replicas converge.

Reproduced on a live 5-node distributed cluster: 5 backends sat in
processingBackends with underlying jobs reporting completed:true,progress:100.

* fix(nodes): clear pending backend ops behind offline/draining nodes

ListDuePendingBackendOps filters status=healthy, so a backend op queued against
a node that went offline (stale heartbeat) or draining (admin action) was never
retried, aged out, or deleted - it leaked forever and kept the UI operation
spinning. Add DeleteStalePendingBackendOps and run it each reconcile pass:
draining nodes are cleared immediately (model rows already purged), offline
nodes once their heartbeat is older than a grace window (blip protection).

Reproduced on a live cluster: orphaned llama-cpp install rows targeting an
offline (nvidia-thor) and a draining (mac-mini-m4) node sat at attempts=0
indefinitely.

* fix(nodes): stream per-node progress during backend upgrade

The install dispatch subscribed to a per-op progress subject and streamed
per-node download ticks; the upgrade dispatch did a bare 15-minute blocking
NATS round-trip with no subscription, so the UI showed progress:0 the whole
time (the 'reinstalling but nothing happens' report on a slow node).

Thread the op ID through BackendManager.UpgradeBackend -> the distributed
manager -> the adapter, and have the adapter subscribe to the per-op progress
subject before the request (extracted into a shared subscribeProgress helper
reused by install/upgrade/force-fallback). The worker's upgradeBackend now
creates the same DebouncedInstallProgressPublisher installBackend uses. An
upgrade is a force-reinstall, so it reuses SubjectNodeBackendInstallProgress
rather than minting a new subject - no new NATS permission, no new
rolling-update compat surface. Reconciler-driven retries pass empty
opID/onProgress and stay on the silent path.

Reproduced on a live cluster: upgrade of llama-cpp-development on agx-orin-slow
sat at progress:0 for 4+ minutes with no per-node feedback.

* fix(galleryop): persist cancellation + periodically reap orphaned ops

Two distributed gaps surfaced when a replica was killed mid-upgrade on a live
cluster, leaving the backend stuck 'processing' in the UI forever:

1. CancelOperation flipped the in-memory status to cancelled and broadcast a
   NATS event but never persisted the terminal status. On the next replica
   restart the still-active row re-hydrated straight back into
   processingBackends and the UI spun again. It now calls store.Cancel(id) so
   the cancel survives a restart.

2. CleanStale (which marks abandoned active ops failed) only ran once on
   startup, so an op orphaned AFTER startup - its owning replica's foreground
   handler goroutine gone - was never reaped until the next restart. Add
   GalleryService.ReapStaleOperations and run it on a 15m ticker (CleanStale
   now returns the reaped count for observability).

Neither is covered by the OpCache self-evict fix: an orphaned op never reaches
Processed, so it would never self-evict.

* fix(review): address self-review findings on the distributed install fixes

Three findings from an adversarial review of this branch:

1. CRITICAL - OpCache.GetStatus crashed under concurrent load. m.Map() returns
   the live internal map by reference, so deleting from it on the read path was
   an unsynchronized write to a map four HTTP handlers poll every ~1s -> a
   'concurrent map writes' fatal. Rewritten to iterate a Keys() snapshot, build
   a fresh result map, and apply evictions via the locked DeleteUUID after the
   loop. Added a -race concurrency regression guard.

2. HIGH - GetStatus evicted failed ops too, hiding them from /api/operations
   and breaking the dismiss-failed-op flow (the panel keeps Error != nil ops so
   the admin can read the error and click Dismiss). Eviction now fires only for
   terminal ops with Error == nil (success/cancelled); failures are retained.

3. MEDIUM - DeleteStalePendingBackendOps missed StatusUnhealthy nodes. A node
   marked unhealthy on a NATS ErrNoResponders never transitions to offline
   (health.go skips re-marking it), so its pending ops leaked exactly like the
   offline case. Unhealthy is now reaped via the same stale-heartbeat grace path
   (a fresh-heartbeat node is recovering and keeps its op).

* fix(review-2): don't evict the still-installing soft-path; don't spin on failed ops

Second review pass found two issues:

1. MEDIUM (Go) - OpCache.GetStatus evicted the ErrWorkerStillInstalling
   soft-path op. That op is deliberately Processed=true with no error to show a
   yellow in-progress state when a worker timed out the NATS round-trip but is
   still installing in the background; the reconciler confirms the real outcome
   later. Evicting it (and broadcasting OpEnd + marking the DB completed) hid an
   install that may still fail. Eviction is now scoped to a clean success
   (progress 100 + 'completed', matching the job-poll's historical condition) or
   a cancellation - the soft-path (progress != 100) and failures are kept.

2. MEDIUM (React) - the Backends gallery card rendered ANY operation as an
   'Installing...' spinner, so a failed op (now intentionally kept in the list
   for the OperationsBar error + Dismiss) spun forever. Exclude errored ops from
   the card spinner, mirroring Models.jsx (isInstalling already excludes
   op.error). The error + Dismiss still surface in the global OperationsBar.

* fix(ui): refresh Manage backends table when an operation settles

The Manage backends table fetched installed backends only on mount/after delete
and checked upgrades only on tab activation. After a reinstall/upgrade completed
neither re-ran, so the installed-version cell and the 'update available' badge
stayed stale until the user switched tabs - the op looked like it 'did nothing'.

Watch the operations list (via useOperations) and re-fetch installed backends +
available upgrades whenever the count settles, mirroring the operations.length
watch Backends.jsx already uses. Consolidates the prior tab-activation upgrades
check into the same effect.

8d6548c0b9 fix(distributed): sync gallery OpCache + caches across frontend replicas (#9983)
When the LocalAI frontend deployment is scaled past one replica, the UI's
/api/operations poll round-robins between pods. Each pod kept the OpCache
(galleryID->jobID), OpStatus map, and the post-install in-memory caches
(ModelConfigLoader, UpgradeChecker) purely in-process. Reads never
consulted PostgreSQL or NATS even though writes already published to PG.
Symptoms:

- A user installing a model on replica A saw the operation card flicker
  in and out as the load balancer alternated.
- The Models page re-fetched the whole gallery on every flicker because
  useEffect([operations.length]) re-fires when the count changes.
- A chat completion that landed on replica B after the install completed
  on replica A failed to find the new model — B's ModelConfigLoader was
  still the old one because nothing told it to reload from disk.
- The UpgradeChecker 6-hour cache stayed stale on peer replicas after a
  backend upgrade, so /api/backends/upgrades kept surfacing an upgrade
  that had already shipped.

Mirror the jobs Dispatcher pattern for gallery ops:

- OpCache learns SetMessagingClient/SetGalleryStore + a Start(ctx) that
  hydrates from PostgreSQL and subscribes to gallery.opcache.{start,end}.
  Set/SetBackend now upsert cache_key + is_backend_op on the gallery_
  operations row and broadcast OpCacheEvent so peers merge it in. The
  hydrate path uses a new GalleryStore.ListActive() (status in {pending,
  downloading, processing} and updated within 30 min).
- GalleryService.SubscribeBroadcasts wires a SubjectGalleryProgress-
  Wildcard subscriber that calls a new lock-light mergeStatus into the
  local statuses map, plus a SubjectGalleryCancelWildcard subscriber that
  runs the locally-registered cancel func. Hydrate() restores active rows
  from PostgreSQL on startup so a freshly-started replica is not
  observably empty mid-install. CancelOperation tolerates the cancel func
  living on a different replica and publishes anyway.
- modelHandler and backendHandler publish on the new
  SubjectCacheInvalidateModels / SubjectCacheInvalidateBackends after
  a successful install/delete/upgrade. SubscribeBroadcasts wires peers
  to refresh: OnModelsChanged (re-runs LoadModelConfigsFromPath) and
  OnBackendOpCompleted (re-triggers UpgradeChecker). The originating
  replica reloads inline so it never enters the broadcast handler.
- OpStatus.Error (an error interface) flat-marshalled to "{}" over JSON,
  so a failed install replicated to a peer arrived with a nil error and
  the UI's failure banner never appeared. Add MarshalJSON/UnmarshalJSON
  via an opStatusWire shim that round-trips Error as a string.
- UpdateStatus and CancelOperation now drop the mutex before publishing
  to NATS or persisting to PostgreSQL. The wildcard subscriber's
  mergeStatus loops back into the same service on the publishing replica
  and would deadlock otherwise; this also prevents future PG round-trips
  from stalling concurrent readers on every progress tick.

Tests cover the OpStatus error round-trip, OpCache propagation through a
shared in-memory bus, OpCache PostgreSQL hydration (active-only),
GalleryService progress + cancel broadcast, Nodes preservation across a
peer's bare progress tick, GalleryService hydration from PG, and the
two cache-invalidation broadcasts (models + backends). 44 specs total
in galleryop; routes/operations specs and jobs/agents suites still pass.

a0f3e26245 fix(distributed): make admin backend installs resilient and observable (#9958)
* feat(distributed): add configurable NATS backend install/upgrade timeouts

Adds BackendInstallTimeout and BackendUpgradeTimeout to DistributedConfig
with 15m defaults, following the existing MCPToolTimeout / WorkerWaitTimeout
pattern. These will replace the hardcoded literals in RemoteUnloaderAdapter
so admin-driven backend installs across the cluster survive long OCI image
pulls that previously timed out at 3m.

* style(distributed): gofmt alignment after timeout fields

Re-aligns the Validate() negative-duration map and the Default* const
block so the new BackendInstall/UpgradeTimeout entries do not leave
the surrounding columns mis-padded.

* feat(cli): surface LOCALAI_NATS_BACKEND_INSTALL_TIMEOUT and _UPGRADE_TIMEOUT

Parses the two new env vars on the run CLI and threads them through the
existing AppOption builder so DistributedConfig picks them up. Invalid
duration strings now fail loudly at startup rather than silently falling
back to the default.

* feat(distributed): inject NATS install/upgrade timeouts into RemoteUnloaderAdapter

Removes the hardcoded 3m / 15m literals from RemoteUnloaderAdapter and
threads in DistributedConfig.BackendInstallTimeoutOrDefault() and
BackendUpgradeTimeoutOrDefault() at construction. Install now defaults
to 15m (was 3m); cold OCI image pulls on Jetson Wi-Fi routinely blew
past the old ceiling. Scripted messaging client captures the timeout
so tests can assert the configured value actually reaches the NATS
request.

* feat(distributed): introduce galleryop.ErrWorkerStillInstalling sentinel

When the NATS request-reply for backend.install (or .upgrade) times out
the worker is almost always still pulling the OCI image. Wrap the timeout
in a typed sentinel so the manager above can distinguish "worker hung"
from "worker still working" and leave the pending_backend_ops row in
place for the reconciler to confirm via backend.list.

Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io>

* feat(distributed): treat NATS install timeout as in-progress, not failure

When a worker times out replying to backend.install but the install is
still running on the worker, enqueueAndDrainBackendOp now reports a
running_on_worker status and pushes NextRetryAt out by the install
timeout so the reconciler does not immediately re-fire another install
while the worker is still pulling the image. The pending_backend_ops
row stays in place for the next reconciler pass to confirm via
backend.list.

InstallBackend wraps the result in galleryop.ErrWorkerStillInstalling
so callers can branch (galleryop renders yellow in-progress instead of
red error). UpgradeBackend uses the same wrap.

Adds RemoteUnloaderAdapter.InstallTimeout() so the manager can push
NextRetryAt by the configured timeout without reaching into a private
field, and NodeRegistry.RecordPendingBackendOpInFlight as the soft
cousin of RecordPendingBackendOpFailure.

Also includes incidental gofmt-driven struct-field alignment in
registry.go on lines unrelated to the change (touched files are
re-formatted to canonical form per project policy).

* fix(distributed): don't increment Attempts on in-flight install timeout

An in-flight timeout (worker still pulling the OCI image) is not a
failed attempt, it's a delayed one. Incrementing Attempts let
genuinely-progressing slow installs (e.g. 30 GB CUDA images on Wi-Fi)
trip the reconciler's maxPendingBackendOpAttempts cap and dead-letter
the queue row while the worker was still legitimately working.

RecordPendingBackendOpInFlight now only updates LastError and NextRetryAt.
Also documents "running_on_worker" in the NodeOpStatus.Status enum
comment so Task 6 implementers see the full surface.

Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io>

* feat(galleryop): surface ErrWorkerStillInstalling as non-error OpStatus

When the distributed backend manager returns an error that wraps
ErrWorkerStillInstalling, backendHandler now completes the op with a
"still installing in background" message rather than marking it as a
red failure. Admin UI sees a yellow in-progress state; reconciler
confirms completion on its next pass.

* test(distributed): end-to-end install-timeout-then-reconcile

Wires Task 1-6 end-to-end so any seam mismatch surfaces in CI rather
than during a real cluster install. NATS times out, the queue row
stays alive with running_on_worker status, the worker eventually
reports the backend installed via backend.list, the manager surfaces
it via ListBackends.

Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io>

* docs(distributed): document LOCALAI_NATS_BACKEND_INSTALL_TIMEOUT / _UPGRADE_TIMEOUT

Add the two new operator-tunable env vars to the Frontend Configuration
table in the distributed-mode docs. Explains the 15m default, when to
raise it (slow links pulling multi-GB OCI images), and the new
"still installing in background" admin-UI state when the round-trip
times out but the worker is still working.

Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io>

* feat(distributed): clear pending install rows when backend.list confirms

DistributedBackendManager.ListBackends now proactively clears
pending_backend_ops install rows whose (nodeID, backend) is reported
installed by backend.list. Operator UI updates immediately instead of
waiting up to installTimeout (default 15m) for the next reconciler
tick after NextRetryAt.

Only install rows are cleared; upgrade and delete intents are not
satisfied by presence in backend.list and continue to drain through
their normal reconciler paths.

Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io>

* feat(messaging): add BackendInstallProgressEvent wire type and subject

New NATS subject nodes.<nodeID>.backend.install.<opID>.progress lets the
worker publish transient progress events (file, current/total bytes,
percentage, phase) while a long-running install pulls its OCI image.
BackendInstallRequest gains an optional OpID field so the worker knows
which subject to publish on.

Transient pub/sub (not JetStream): the install reply remains ground
truth for success/failure; dropped progress events are tolerable.

Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io>

* style(messaging): drop em-dash from BackendInstallProgress test comment

Per project convention (no em-dashes anywhere). Comment substance is
unchanged.

Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io>

* feat(distributed): worker publishes debounced install progress over NATS

When BackendInstallRequest.OpID is set, the worker's backend.install
handler wires a debounced publisher (250ms window) into the gallery
download callback. Each tick becomes a BackendInstallProgressEvent on
nodes.<nodeID>.backend.install.<opID>.progress; the publisher always
emits a final event on Flush so the UI sees the terminal percentage.

Old masters that do not set OpID continue to run silent installs: no
behavior change for them. Lock ordering: the publisher releases its
mutex before calling messaging.Publish so a slow network never stalls
the install loop.

Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io>

* feat(distributed): RemoteUnloaderAdapter subscribes to install progress

InstallBackend gains opID + onProgress parameters. When both are set,
the adapter subscribes to nodes.<nodeID>.backend.install.<opID>.progress
BEFORE publishing the install request, decodes each message into the
caller's onProgress callback in a goroutine (so a slow callback never
stalls the NATS reader thread), and unsubscribes after RequestJSON
returns.

When onProgress is nil OR opID is empty (the reconciler retry path),
subscription is skipped entirely - silent installs cost nothing extra.

Subscribe failure is logged at Warn and the install proceeds without
progress streaming; the NATS round-trip still owns terminal status.

Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io>

* feat(distributed): forward backend install progress into galleryop OpStatus

DistributedBackendManager.InstallBackend now passes the gallery op ID
and a progress bridge into the adapter call. Each
BackendInstallProgressEvent from the worker becomes a
galleryop.ProgressCallback tick - which the existing backendHandler
already turns into OpStatus.UpdateStatus, so the admin UI/SSE polling
sees per-byte progress for distributed installs without any UI-side
change.

UpgradeBackend is intentionally left silent for now: its wire request
(BackendUpgradeRequest) does not carry OpID, and rolling-update
fallback is the rarer path. Will be picked up in a follow-up if the
worker upgrade path also gets a progress channel.

Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io>

* test(distributed): InstallBackend tolerates silent (pre-Phase-2) workers

A worker on pre-Phase-2 code never publishes progress events. The new
master subscribes optimistically; this spec pins that a silent worker
still produces a green install with no progressCb ticks. The install
reply is the source of truth for terminal state; the progress stream
is a best-effort UX enrichment.

Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io>

* docs(distributed): document install progress streaming

Note the new nodes.<nodeID>.backend.install.<opID>.progress subject and
the silent-worker compatibility behavior so operators know to expect
real-time progress and what happens on a mixed-version cluster.

Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io>

* docs(distributed): note progress-event ordering trade-off in InstallBackend

Document near the goroutine dispatch why ordering at the consumer is
best-effort, why it rarely matters in practice (worker debounce >>
goroutine jitter), and what a future hardening pass would look like
(Seq field + stale-by-seq drop). Stops the next reader from accidentally
"fixing" the goroutine pool away.

* feat(galleryop): add NodeProgress + OpStatus.Nodes for per-node breakdown

Adds the data model the UI needs to render an expandable per-node
breakdown of a fanned-out backend install. NodeProgress carries node
identity (ID + name), per-node status (queued / running_on_worker /
success / error / downloading), the current file + bytes + percentage
from the Phase 2 progress stream, and any per-node error.

OpStatus.Nodes is the slice the /api/operations handler will surface
in a follow-up.

Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io>

* feat(galleryop): UpdateNodeProgress merges per-node ticks by NodeID

GalleryService.UpdateNodeProgress(opID, nodeID, np) merges a NodeProgress
into OpStatus.Nodes (keyed by NodeID, no duplicates) and mirrors the
latest tick into the aggregate Progress / FileName /
DownloadedFileSize / TotalFileSize fields so the legacy single-bar
OperationsBar view keeps working unchanged alongside the new per-node
breakdown.

Concurrent-safe via the existing g.Mutex.

Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io>

* feat(distributed): write per-node OpStatus entries during install fan-out

DistributedBackendManager now accepts a nodeProgressSink and feeds it
two streams:

1. enqueueAndDrainBackendOp emits a per-node terminal entry on each
   status it appends to BackendOpResult (queued, success, error,
   running_on_worker). The opID is threaded through the function so
   the sink gets the right gallery op identity.

2. The install apply closure fans each BackendInstallProgressEvent
   into the sink as a downloading entry, alongside the legacy
   progressCb path so the aggregate single-bar view stays correct.

Production wiring passes the GalleryService (which implements
UpdateNodeProgress via Task 2) as the sink. Single-node tests pass
nil. DeleteBackend and UpgradeBackend pass an empty opID so the
sink path no-ops for ops that aren't gallery-tracked the same way
as Install.

Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io>

* feat(operations): expose per-node breakdown on /api/operations

When an operation's OpStatus has Nodes entries (populated by the
Phase 4 progress sink wiring), surface them as a "nodes" array on the
/api/operations response, sorted by node_name for stable rendering.

Backward compatible: legacy clients ignore the field; ops without any
node entries (single-node mode, model installs) omit the array entirely
thanks to the empty-slice guard.

Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io>

* feat(ui): per-node breakdown in OperationsBar

When an install op fans out to more than one worker, the operations
bar now shows a "N nodes" chevron that expands into a per-node list.
Each row carries the node's status (color-coded pill), the current
file being downloaded, byte counts, percentage, and a thin per-node
progress bar. Yellow "Worker busy" pill marks running_on_worker
status with a tooltip explaining the NATS round-trip timed out but
the worker is still installing in the background.

Backward compatible: ops without a nodes field (legacy or single-node
mode) render as before. State for expand/collapse is local to the
component, keyed by jobID/id - reload starts collapsed.

Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io>

* docs(distributed): document per-node breakdown in the operations bar

Adds a short subsection covering the expandable "N nodes" chevron in
the OperationsBar admin UI, the meaning of each status pill, and
how it relates to the /api/operations nodes array.

Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io>

* fix(galleryop): UpdateStatus preserves Nodes when caller sends none

Real-world bug surfaced by the Phase 4 multi-worker smoke test: the
nodes[] array in /api/operations flickered between a single node at a
time on a 2-worker install. Root cause: the Phase 2 progress bridge
also calls the legacy progressCb -> UpdateStatus(&OpStatus{...}) on
every tick. UpdateStatus then overwrote the entire status pointer,
wiping the Nodes slice that UpdateNodeProgress had just merged in.

Fix: in UpdateStatus, if the incoming op has an empty Nodes slice,
carry forward the previous status's Nodes before storing. Callers
that explicitly populate Nodes still win (their slice replaces the
prior one, no merge across the two code paths).

Two regression specs added pinning both directions of the contract.

* docs(distributed): strip implementation details from user-facing docs

Trim the new install/upgrade timeout rows and the install-progress
sections to focus on what the operator sees and tunes. Drops:

- the NATS subject names and pub/sub mechanics
- "round-trip" / reconciler / backend.list jargon
- /api/operations polling cadence
- "pre-2026-05-22" version references

Reframes the breakdown text around the admin UI (Operations Bar,
chevron, status pills, "Worker busy" tooltip). Implementation context
lives in the agent notes and code comments.

* refactor(config): move DistributedConfig.Validate flag names to constants

The negative-duration check map was a wall of literal kebab-case
strings that had to stay in sync with the kong-derived CLI flag names
manually. Move them to a Flag* const block alongside the existing
Default* block so a rename of either the Go field or the CLI naming
convention forces a compile error rather than silent drift.

Sole consumer today is Validate; the constants are exported so future
operator-facing surfaces (e.g. error messages on other validation
paths) can reference them by name instead of repeating the literals.

Tests pin both the literal values (so a future "let's just rename
this" doesn't accidentally regress the CLI flag) and the negative-
duration error message for the new BackendInstall / BackendUpgrade
fields.

Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io>

* refactor(distributed): extract NodeStatus and Phase enums to constants

Sweep for the same literal-string-as-identifier pattern called out on
the Validate flag names: the per-node install status enum
("queued" | "downloading" | "running_on_worker" | "success" | "error")
appeared as raw literals across managers_distributed.go (10+ sites,
including 3 separate `n.Status == "running_on_worker"` checks),
operation.go, and the test suite. Same shape for the Phase enum
("resolving" | "downloading" | "extracting" | "starting") in the
worker-side progress publisher.

Promote both to exported const blocks:

- galleryop.NodeStatus{Queued,Downloading,RunningOnWorker,Success,Error}
  shared between galleryop.NodeProgress.Status (the wire field) and
  nodes.NodeOpStatus.Status (the in-process per-node summary)
- messaging.Phase{Resolving,Downloading,Extracting,Starting}
  shared between the worker publisher and any future consumer that
  needs to switch on phase

Tests pin both the literal values (so a future "let's just rename" doesn't
silently change the JSON wire) and use the constants in setup (so the
producer side stays drift-protected). Wire-format assertions on the
/api/operations JSON output keep their literals deliberately, so the
constant value can never silently diverge from what the UI receives.

Out of scope for this PR (separate cleanup): the finetune and
quantization job-status enums have the same anti-pattern with 14+
literal sites each, but predate this PR's work.

5d0b549049 feat(gallery): verify backend OCI images with keyless cosign (#9823)
* feat(gallery): verify backend OCI images with keyless cosign

Close a trust gap where a registry compromise or MITM could silently
replace a backend image: the gallery YAML tells LocalAI which image to
pull, but until now nothing verified the bytes came from our CI.

Consumer (pkg/oci/cosignverify):
- New package using sigstore-go to verify keyless-cosign signatures.
- OCI 1.1 referrers API + new bundle format (no legacy :tag.sig).
- Policy fields: Issuer / IssuerRegex / Identity / IdentityRegex /
  NotBefore. NotBefore is the revocation lever — keyless Fulcio certs
  are ephemeral so revocation is policy-side; advancing not_before in
  the gallery YAML invalidates every signature predating the cutoff.
- TUF trusted root cached process-wide so N backends from one gallery
  do 1 fetch, not N.

Plumbing:
- pkg/downloader: ImageVerifier interface + WithImageVerifier option
  threaded through DownloadFileWithContext. Verification runs between
  oci.GetImage and oci.ExtractOCIImage, with digest pinning via
  pinnedImageRef to close the TOCTOU window. Skips the verifier's HEAD
  when the ref is already digest-pinned.
- core/config: Gallery.Verification YAML block.
- core/gallery: backendDownloadOptions builds the verifier from the
  policy; applied on initial URI, mirrors, and tag fallbacks.
- core/gallery/upgrade: the upgrade path now routes through the same
  options builder. A regression Ginkgo spec pins this contract —
  without it, UpgradeBackend silently bypassed verification.
- core/cli: --require-backend-integrity (LOCALAI_REQUIRE_BACKEND_INTEGRITY)
  escalates missing policy / empty SHA256 from warn to hard-fail.

Producer (.github/workflows/backend_merge.yml):
- id-token: write at job scope (PR-fork-safe via existing event gate).
- sigstore/cosign-installer@v3 pinned to v2.4.1.
- After each docker buildx imagetools create, resolve the manifest
  list digest and run cosign sign --recursive --new-bundle-format
  --registry-referrers-mode=oci-1-1 against repo@digest. --recursive
  signs the index and every per-arch entry, matching how the consumer
  resolves a tag to a platform-specific manifest before verifying.

Rollout: backend/index.yaml has no `verification:` block yet, so this
PR is backward-compatible — installs proceed with a warning until the
gallery is populated. Strict mode is opt-in.

* refactor(gallery): plumb RequireBackendIntegrity through config instead of env

The previous implementation re-exported the --require-backend-integrity
CLI flag into LOCALAI_REQUIRE_BACKEND_INTEGRITY via os.Setenv, then
re-read it in core/gallery via os.Getenv. This leaked process state
into the gallery package and made the flag impossible to override
per-call or test without touching the env.

Add RequireBackendIntegrity to ApplicationConfig (with a matching
WithRequireBackendIntegrity AppOption) and thread the bool through
every install/upgrade path: InstallBackend, InstallBackendFromGallery,
UpgradeBackend, InstallModelFromGallery, InstallExternalBackend,
ApplyGalleryFromString/File, startup.InstallModels. Worker subcommands
gain the same env-bound flag on WorkerFlags so distributed-worker
installs honor it consistently with the worker daemon path.

Add a forbidigo lint rule against os.Getenv / os.LookupEnv / os.Environ
to keep the env-leak pattern from creeping back. Existing offenders
(p2p, config loaders, etc.) are baseline-grandfathered by the existing
new-from-merge-base: origin/master setting; targeted path exclusions
cover the legitimate cases — kong CLI entry points, backend
subprocesses, system capability probes, gRPC AUTH_TOKEN inheritance,
test gating env vars.

8ab0744458 feat: backend versioning, upgrade detection and auto-upgrade (#9315)
* feat: add backend versioning data model foundation

Add Version, URI, and Digest fields to BackendMetadata for tracking
installed backend versions and enabling upgrade detection. Add Version
field to GalleryBackend. Add UpgradeAvailable/AvailableVersion fields
to SystemBackend. Implement GetImageDigest() for lightweight OCI digest
lookups via remote.Head. Record version, URI, and digest at install time
in InstallBackend() and propagate version through meta backends.

* feat: add backend upgrade detection and execution logic

Add CheckBackendUpgrades() to compare installed backend versions/digests
against gallery entries, and UpgradeBackend() to perform atomic upgrades
with backup-based rollback on failure. Includes Agent A's data model
changes (Version/URI/Digest fields, GetImageDigest).

* feat: add AutoUpgradeBackends config and runtime settings

Add configuration and runtime settings for backend auto-upgrade:
- RuntimeSettings field for dynamic config via API/JSON
- ApplicationConfig field, option func, and roundtrip conversion
- CLI flag with LOCALAI_AUTO_UPGRADE_BACKENDS env var
- Config file watcher support for runtime_settings.json
- Tests for ToRuntimeSettings, ApplyRuntimeSettings, and roundtrip

* feat(ui): add backend version display and upgrade support

- Add upgrade check/trigger API endpoints to config and api module
- Backends page: version badge, upgrade indicator, upgrade button
- Manage page: version in metadata, context-aware upgrade/reinstall button
- Settings page: auto-upgrade backends toggle

* feat: add upgrade checker service, API endpoints, and CLI command

- UpgradeChecker background service: checks every 6h, auto-upgrades when enabled
- API endpoints: GET /backends/upgrades, POST /backends/upgrades/check, POST /backends/upgrade/:name
- CLI: `localai backends upgrade` command, version display in `backends list`
- BackendManager interface: add UpgradeBackend and CheckUpgrades methods
- Wire upgrade op through GalleryService backend handler
- Distributed mode: fan-out upgrade to worker nodes via NATS

* fix: use advisory lock for upgrade checker in distributed mode

In distributed mode with multiple frontend instances, use PostgreSQL
advisory lock (KeyBackendUpgradeCheck) so only one instance runs
periodic upgrade checks and auto-upgrades. Prevents duplicate
upgrade operations across replicas.

Standalone mode is unchanged (simple ticker loop).

* test: add e2e tests for backend upgrade API

- Test GET /api/backends/upgrades returns 200 (even with no upgrade checker)
- Test POST /api/backends/upgrade/:name accepts request and returns job ID
- Test full upgrade flow: trigger upgrade via API, wait for job completion,
  verify run.sh updated to v2 and metadata.json has version 2.0.0
- Test POST /api/backends/upgrades/check returns 200
- Fix nil check for applicationInstance in upgrade API routes
