manunicholasjacob	dbce318e4f	fix(xsysinfo): cap the default thread count by the container CPU limit ... When --threads / LOCALAI_THREADS is unset, LocalAI uses the host's physical core count. Inside a container with a CPU limit (docker --cpus, a Kubernetes limits.cpu) that starts one thread per host core inside a smaller CFS quota, so the backend is throttled for most of each period. Since Go 1.25 the default GOMAXPROCS already follows the affinity mask and the cgroup CPU limit. Use the smaller of the physical core count and GOMAXPROCS as the default. Hosts without a limit are unchanged.

mudler-agentandEttore Di Giacinto	7c74d26555	feat(addons): run the add-on owner as its own workload (#12867) ... * feat(addons): generate and load a static carrier key set A split deployment needs the owner and the frontends to share certificates and a signing key that outlive a process. The loopback carrier makes fresh keys at every start, so it cannot serve that. GenerateCarrierKeys writes a CA certificate, an owner leaf and a frontend leaf, and the frontend signing key pair. It drops the CA key, so nobody can issue a third leaf, and it refuses to overwrite any file. LoadCarrierConfig reads only the files of one role and refuses key files that group or other users can access. The owner never forwards, but NewCarrier still requires a signing key, so the owner config gets a throwaway key in memory instead of the frontends' private key. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-sonnet-5-5 Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * feat(addons): add util addons-carrier-keys An operator who runs the add-on owner and its frontends as separate workloads needs a way to make the shared key set. The command wraps GenerateCarrierKeys: --out names the directory and --owner-host, which can repeat, sets the names the owner certificate is valid for. It prints which files belong on the owner and which on the frontends. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-sonnet-5-5 Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * feat(addons): add the owner and frontend roles to local-ai run Every local-ai run process is its own add-on owner, so a distributed deployment cannot scale its frontends: replicas that share a data volume fight over the owner lock. --addons-role selects combined (today's behaviour, the default), owner or frontend. The owner and frontend roles also take --addons-owner-address and --addons-carrier-dir, and the owner takes --addons-owner-listen. They use the fixed carrier identities and the key set from the carrier key directory. The frontend role has no add-on root, so it never creates the add-ons folder. A bad role setup stops startup with a message that names the flag. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-sonnet-5-5 Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * feat(addons): keep the frontend role away from owner state A frontend holds no add-on state, but it still wrote the library sources file of the data path, which is the owner's file. The frontend role now skips the library option and reads only the galleries named by the flags, and logs a warning when it has no account database, because its pins are then kept per frontend. The add-on manager rejects a relative root even for a forwarding frontend, so the frontend config names the absolute path where an owner would keep its state. Nothing creates or opens it, and a spec checks that the data path stays empty. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-sonnet-5-5 Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * test(addons): run the owner and frontends as separate applications The split roles are only useful if an owner and its frontends work as separate processes that share nothing but the carrier keys and the owner address. A spec now builds them as separate Application values with their own data paths and keys from GenerateCarrierKeys. It covers a frontend that lists apps and reads add-on status through the owner, two frontends on one key set, a frontend that starts while the owner is down and answers unavailable, a second owner refused on the same root, and an owner that restarts on the same root and address and still serves the installed add-on to the same frontend. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-sonnet-5-5 Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * docs(addons): describe running the owner as its own workload An operator who runs several frontend replicas had no documented way to stop each one from being its own add-on owner. The add-ons page now has a section for the owner and frontend roles: one owner replica with its own volume and a recreate-style rollout, a stable owner address, key generation and per-role mounts, a Compose example, what a restart and an owner outage look like, the models-path limit, and the frontend limits. The singleton section names the roles and the distributed-state mode, and the distributed mode page links to the new section.

A combined or owner process answers true when add-ons are enabled and the owner manager exists. A frontend answers true when the owner answered the carrier's audience call within 2 s, and keeps that answer for 10 s so /api/features does not dial the owner per request. /api/features reports the result as "addons", and fine_tuning and quantization take the same value, because both are add-ons. The frontend cache is per-instance state. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-sonnet-5-5 Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * feat(addons): answer 503 on every add-on route when add-ons are off With --addons-enabled=false the real add-on, fine-tuning and quantization routes and services are not registered. One catch-all per prefix answers the typed unavailable response of an absent owner, for any path under it, so a client cannot tell which routes exist. The response is the one the gateway already writes (gateway.WriteUnavailable over typedError), not a second format. With add-ons on, the same routes sit behind RequireAddonsFeature, which reads Application.AddonsFeature, so a frontend that cannot reach the owner gives the same answer. The per-user feature middleware still runs after the gate. No endpoint is added, so the swagger, /api/instructions and RouteFeatureRegistry surfaces do not change. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-sonnet-5-5 Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * feat(addons): build no carrier for a frontend with add-ons off addonConfigFor already returned the zero config before it read a role flag when add-ons are disabled. Say so on the way out: when a role, owner address, listen address or carrier directory flag is set, log one info line that the flags are ignored. A frontend with --addons-enabled=false needs no owner address and no key directory, loads no keys and builds no carrier. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-sonnet-5-5 Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * feat(ui): hide add-on entries when the addons feature is off The UI reads features.addons from /api/features. When it is false: the sidebar shows no Add-ons entry and no pinned apps, the 404 page lists no add-on destination, the shell does not call /api/addons/pins or /api/addons/builtin, and /app/addons, /app/addons/*, /app/fine-tune and /app/quantize lead back to /app. The Build hub tabs for add-ons, fine-tuning and quantization were already keyed on features and now follow the gate. An absent key (an older server) counts as on. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-sonnet-5-5 Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * docs(addons): describe the addons feature gate The --addons-enabled row now says the UI hides the add-on entries and every add-on, fine-tuning and quantization route answers 503. A new subsection describes the addons key of /api/features, the 10 s frontend cache as per-instance state, and that a frontend with add-ons off needs no owner address or key directory. The fine-tuning and quantization pages say they are off with --addons-enabled=false. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-sonnet-5-5 Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * fix(addons): give a frontend no add-on state root OwnerConfig.validate required an absolute root for every role, so a frontend named a path under the data directory that nothing was allowed to open. Only the owner has a state root now: validate checks it when the instance is the owner, and the frontend role leaves Root empty. Nothing on a frontend reads or creates it. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-sonnet-5-5 Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * fix(addons): make the carrier signing key optional for the owner NewCarrier required an Ed25519 signing key of every instance, so the owner role loaded a throwaway key in memory that it never used. The owner never signs an outbound request, so it now needs none: NewCarrier accepts an empty key when the instance is the owner and still requires a whole key from a frontend, and a malformed key is refused for both. LoadCarrierConfig no longer generates one. The owner still verifies frontend signatures with frontend-sign.pub. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-sonnet-5-5 Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * Keep the owner address out of the add-on identity file The owner address is runtime configuration, so storing it and comparing the whole file made a moved owner refuse its own root. The identity file now holds the owner ID and storage ID only. An older file that still has an address loads, and the address is ignored. A different owner ID or storage ID is still refused. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-sonnet-5-5 Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * docs(addons): state that an existing root loads under the owner role The owner identity no longer stores its address, so a root written by a single node loads under the owner role when the owner and storage identity match. Say so, and keep the caveat about absolute paths in the journal. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-sonnet-5-5 Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * fix(addons): refuse library-source routes on a frontend A frontend must keep no owner state, but the library-source routes, the ApplyLibraries call and the startup official-libraries step still opened and wrote addons/sources.json in its data path. Mark the frontend role in the add-on config, also when add-ons are off. On a frontend, LibrarySources returns the unavailable error, ApplyLibraries does nothing and the startup step skips the store. The six /api/library/sources routes answer 503 with the body that the add-on feature gate writes, and an X-LocalAI-Reason header names the cause. Reads are refused too: the carrier has no verb for them. Owner and combined roles are unchanged. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-sonnet-5-5 Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * fix(addons): put the reason in the unavailable body WriteUnavailable wrote the plain text "addon request failed", and the library-source refusal put its reason in an X-LocalAI-Reason header. Write the LocalAI error envelope instead, with a message, a type and the code "unavailable", and keep the 503 status. The message names the cause: add-ons are off on this instance, the add-on owner is not reachable, or library sources are managed on the owner. Remove the header. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-sonnet-5-5 Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * feat(addons): serve library calls on the add-on owner Add the carrier verbs a frontend needs to work on the library through the owner: library-list, library-add, library-update, library-enable, library-disable, library-remove, library-backend-resolve and library-backend-releases. A call carries the operation in one LibraryCall field of the wire request, so an old owner rejects it as an invalid binding. Every verb but the three reads is a mutation, and the reply is an envelope of data or a typed error, so a frontend gives the status the owner's own routes give. The owner serves them through gateway.LibraryAdmin, implemented in the application on the same LocalAdmin as the owner's HTTP routes. It runs the owner's administrator check before any store call. Add two peer-authenticated reads that take no actor and leave the audience reply unchanged: GET /addons/capabilities (protocol, calls and the owner's OS and architecture) and GET /addons/library/snapshot (the gallery-relevant source list and its version). Split the backend install: Installer.Resolve is the owner's half (resolve, pick the meta backend for the asker's capability, pin by digest) and returns a Plan; the node that installs runs the collision check and the gallery install itself. Move the source administration behind library.Admin and add library.ReconcileInfos for a source list read from the owner. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-sonnet-5-5 Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * feat(addons): forward library routes from a frontend to the owner A frontend refused the library-source routes and did not serve the backend library routes. Forward them instead, and keep the owner the only writer of the sources. The library-source routes work on library.Admin: the local store on a combined or owner process, the carrier on a frontend. The frontend checks the calling account (a legacy API key is refused with 401), and the owner checks the administrator right again before any store call. With add-ons off, a frontend answers these routes with a 503. A frontend asks the owner for its source list every 60 seconds through the peer-authenticated snapshot call and rebuilds its model and backend gallery lists, and the official-libraries switch, only when the version changed. If the owner does not answer, it keeps the last lists and marks them stale. Changing official_libraries on a frontend is refused with 409. The backend library install is split. The owner resolves the entry and pins the image; the frontend runs the gallery install on its own node, with its own size limit and strict mode. A frontend refuses library calls to an owner that does not serve them, or that runs on another OS or architecture. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-sonnet-5-5 Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * docs(addons): document library operations on a frontend Replace the frontend limits that said a frontend refuses the library routes with what happens now: the library sources and the backend library go through the owner, the gallery lists follow the owner every 60 seconds, official_libraries is set on the owner, and the owner and the frontends must run on one OS and architecture. Add specs for the split owner: a frontend lists sources through the owner, a source added on a frontend reaches the owner and then the other frontend after a refresh, a write with the owner down answers 503 with the error envelope, official_libraries answers 409 on a frontend and a change on the owner reaches the frontend's gallery lists, the lists are kept and marked stale while the owner is down, a platform mismatch and a legacy API key are refused, and a frontend installs a backend into its own path from the owner's plan. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-sonnet-5-5 Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * feat(addons): check the shared models path with a probe Exports write into the models path of the owner, and frontends load models from their own path. A wrong mount fails silently: the export succeeds and the model never appears. The owner writes a probe file with a random nonce into its models path at start. A frontend fetches the nonce over the carrier and checks at start, then every 60 seconds, that the same file is visible at the same absolute path. On a mismatch it logs an error, reports model_exports false and blocks its export and import routes. The owner refuses an export or import while its own probe is missing, and keeps running if it cannot write the probe. An unreachable or older owner gives "unknown" and leaves exports on. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-sonnet-5-5 Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * docs(api): describe the library refusal and forwarding The library-source and backend-library routes forward to the add-on owner on a frontend and answer 503 when the owner cannot serve them. Add the 503 to their swagger annotations, regenerate the swagger files, and say in /api/instructions that a frontend forwards these routes. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-sonnet-5-5 Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * feat(addons): let frontends run the backend update check through the owner In named-user mode a frontend has no user to act as, so the background backend update check failed there. Add one read-only system call for the release lookup. The owner accepts it only on the peer-authenticated route from a pinned frontend, only for backend-releases, and without an actor. Calls through /addons/forward cannot carry the mark, and every user-facing call still goes through the administrator check. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-sonnet-5-5 Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * feat(mcp): expose the backend update check as a tool Add list_backend_library_updates, a read-only tool for GET /backends/library/updates. The in-process client reads the library installer, and the HTTP client calls the route. The six library source routes stay out of the catalog: the assistant has no per-call actor and no approval card for library changes. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-sonnet-5-5 Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * feat(api): add export status routes for fine-tuning and quantization The add-on UIs could not know that model exports are blocked until a user hit the refusal of the export route. Add GET /api/fine-tuning/status and GET /api/quantization/status. Each returns {"model_exports": bool}, from the same check that drives the model_exports key of /api/features. The routes sit behind the add-ons gate, so they answer 503 when add-ons are off. They are listed in the swagger spec, the instructions registry, the route-feature registry and the feature docs. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-sonnet-5-5 Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * feat(addons): disable exports when the models probe fails The fine-tuning and quantization pages now read the new status route and turn off the export form, the checkpoint export button and the import button when model_exports is false. A short reason shows next to the control. A failed or slow answer leaves the controls on, as the server does for an unknown check.

mudler-agentandEttore Di Giacinto	f1ff707b97	feat(addons): list and install backends from a library (#12816) ... * feat(addons): add the add-on runtime, navigation and first-party add-ons Add the add-on runtime to LocalAI: manifests, the host operation broker, admin gating by account role, the add-on UI bundle builder and the SDK for add-on pages. Move the navigation to Chat, Models, Add-ons and Settings, with pinned add-ons in the sidebar and an Add-ons drawer. Ship the first-party add-ons (voice, face, fine-tuning, quantization) as packages for linux/amd64, linux/arm64 and darwin/arm64. Intel macOS (darwin/amd64) is enabled in the platform files. Squashed from the review branch. The tree is unchanged; the pre-squash history is kept on a local backup branch. Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * fix(gosec): tighten file modes and annotate false positives Write job state, configs and imported models with mode 0600, clean the paths that are read from disk, and mark the route tables, the header name and the retry jitter as reviewed false positives. Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5 gosec Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * fix(addons): keep API keys off recovery mutations and same-site cookies POST /api/addons/dispatch forwarded the recovery and update mutations to the owner for any administrator key, which skipped the browser-session rule of their own routes. Refuse those actions there. Also apply the same-origin rule to the legacy token cookie, not only the session cookie, because the global CSRF check lets same-site requests through. Do not fail the start of LocalAI when an add-on library cannot be refreshed; log it and keep the installed add-ons up. Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5 go Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * fix(addons): refuse a reinstall that would migrate retained data unbacked An upgrade takes a verified backup before the new package migrates the data. A reinstall over retained data has no running generation to stop, so the new package would migrate it without one. Refuse a reinstall whose data format differs from the retained one. Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5 go Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * fix(addons): release the manager lock while a release is fetched Submit held the state lock across the catalog lookup and the package download, so the apps list and status reads stalled for the whole install. Serialize Submit and Reconcile with their own lock and drop the state lock around the fetch only. Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5 go Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * fix(addons): kill an add-on only after three missed health probes One slow 100 ms probe killed a busy add-on and dropped the work it was serving. Require three misses in a row. Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5 go Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * feat(ui): move settings under the operate hub The Operate hub already has Settings as a tab, so the sidebar no longer shows a separate Settings entry. The /app/settings route stays, and the hub tab still reaches it. The navigation test now expects Chat, Models and Add-ons as the primary items. Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5 node Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * fix(addons): accept same-host browser requests that carry no fetch metadata Browsers do not send Sec-Fetch-* headers over plain HTTP on an address that is not localhost, so every add-on request from a LAN address was refused as cross-site. Keep refusing a Sec-Fetch-Site value other than same-origin. When the header is absent, accept the request only if its Origin, or failing that its Referer, names the same host and port as the request. Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5 go Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * fix(ui): show the server's reason when an add-on request is refused A 403 or 400 answer showed a generic message and hid the reason in the response body, so a refusal by the browser guard could not be told from a missing permission. Show error.message from the body as the server sent it, and keep the generic text when the body has none. Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5 node Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * feat(addons): run the add-on owner in the normal binary The owner was only enabled when an embedding host set the add-on config, so a normal run answered every add-on request as unavailable. Add --addons-enabled (default true) and --addons-ownership-mode (default named-user, or local-owner; anything else stops startup). The node is its own owner: state lives under the data path, and the carrier uses loopback keys made at each start and kept in memory. --addons-enabled=false turns the owner off completely. Named-user mode needs the account database. With authentication off the owner stays off and a warning says how to use local-owner. Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5 go Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * fix(addons): keep the loopback owner address stable across restarts The single-node loopback transport took a new ephemeral port at each start. The owner stores its address in its identity file and refuses to start when the address differs, so every start after the first failed with "invalid addon owner configuration". Choose the port once, keep it in the add-on state root (loopback-port, mode 0600) and reuse it. If the port is taken at a later start, stop with an error that names the port and --addons-enabled=false, because another port would break the identity check. The keys and certificate stay in memory. Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5 go Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * feat(addons): let add-on pages keep the host modules they were written against A page written for the web UI imports React, the router, i18next and a few shared components. The add-on builder refuses a bundle that holds a host file, so moving such a page into an add-on meant rewriting it. Add a compat mode to the shared builder. It answers those imports from a directory of stand-ins that read the SDK, bundles the dynamic import of the page code into the one output file, and collects the style sheets the page imports. A relative import that is not in the add-on's own source resolves to the file at the same path under the compat directory. Widen the SDK for these pages, without a version change: more host components (spinner, modal, lightbox, model picker) and hooks (models, resources, voice profiles, operations, MCP client), a style on icons, the icon names the pages draw, sdk.navigation.openApp to open a page of the app (only addresses under /app, and the way back as the only state) and sdk.portal. The shell passes the query string to the page. The stand-ins cover the router (the tab in the path, the model in the query), the translator over the host locale files, the core API calls through sdk.core.fetch, and byte copies of the pure helpers, with tests that keep the copies equal to the originals. Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5 node Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * feat(addons): ship Studio and Talk as add-ons instead of built-in pages Studio and Talk were compiled into the web bundle and always listed in the Add-ons drawer. They are add-ons now, like Voice, Face, fine-tuning and quantization: a person installs and removes them, the drawer lists them only while they are installed, and they are packaged the same way. Move the pages, their components, hooks and helpers into addons/studio and addons/talk. Each has a manifest, a UI bundle, a release platform matrix and a catalog template, and is built by the compat mode of the shared builder. The core API stays where it is: the pages call it with the signed-in person's session. The history keeps its browser storage keys. The unit tests of the moved helpers move with them. In the core, drop the two pages, the Create group of the sidebar (Chat joins Home and Models in the old layout), the built-in catalog entries (the catalog is empty) and the talk locale namespace. The old addresses (/app/studio, /app/talk and the generator links) redirect to the add-on pages, with the model as ?model=. The Home /studio command is offered only while the Studio add-on is installed and opens it. The release workflow and its tests now list seven add-ons. Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5 go node Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * test(ui): run the Studio and Talk specs against the add-on bundles The pages are add-ons now, so a spec that draws one installs the real built bundle first: the apps list names it and its module and style sheet are served from the build output, the way the add-on owner serves them. studio-addon.js holds that helper, and the Studio and Talk fixtures call it. Update the specs for the new addresses (/app/addons/studio/studio, the model as ?model=), the session permission the add-on route needs, the legacy redirects, the Home /studio command that appears only while the add-on is installed, and the sidebar without a Create group. Add specs for the add-ons themselves: every tab draws with no script error, the shell titles the page once, the old addresses say so when the add-on is not installed, a button of the page reaches a core page with the way back, and the drawer lists both only after they are installed. Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5 node Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * fix(ui): centre the icon of a built-in tile in its icon box The drawer drew the icon of a built-in tile (Studio's palette was one) in a bare 40px box. Only the placeholder box was laid out as a centred grid with the 20px size, so the real icon sat in the top-left corner at the size of the page text. Give the built-in tile the same classes as the placeholder box, and check in a browser that the icon is centred.

Describe the SDK additions the pages use: components, hooks, icons, openApp and portal. Say on the Studio page that it is installed from the drawer.

Open it through os.Root so the name cannot leave the root, even by a symbolic link, and require a regular file with no group or other access. A looser file now fails closed instead of being trusted.

Install the add-on with the Studio fixtures, open its pages and use its compose card, so the specs run against the page that exists.

Count the step elements, which does not depend on the load order. Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5 playwright Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * test(ui): fail the node refresh by state, not by call count The spec served the list to the first request and failed the rest. The first request is not always the one from the page, so the page could get the failure first and show no list. Serve the list until the page shows it, then fail the refreshes.

Resolve the unset mode in one place: local-owner when authentication is off, named-user when it is on. A flag or environment value still wins, and an unknown value is still refused.

The entries come from addonpkg catalog over locally built linux/amd64 packages, so the digests pin those images. On the first start, when the owner has no sources.json, register the raw GitHub URL of that index on master as the "official" library and write the file. The file is then the record: a library the admin removes stays removed, and an existing file is never changed. --addons-official-library=false skips the default.

Fine-tuning uses sliders, quantization layers, voice waveform, face user, studio palette, talk phone and tables database. They were rendered with headless Chrome from the sprite paths.

It comes from addonpkg catalog over a locally built linux/amd64 package, so the digest pins that image. The official index test now expects seven add-ons.

It now has one page, "voice", and one drawer entry. Recognition, Library, Text to speech and From a recording are tabs of that page, drawn with the same tab strip the recognition page already used. The tab is the first path segment (voice/library), as in the Studio add-on, and the form that adds a voice is a view of the Library tab (voice/library/new). The old page names stay declared in the manifest. Each one redirects to its tab and keeps the query string, so saved links still open.

The moved-page helper compares the first segment of the target with the declared pages, so a target can name a tab. The docs and the navigation spec list the new addresses.

A worker that started, or restarted after a failure, removed the files another worker was serving, so a Studio spec saw "the style sheet of the add-on could not be loaded". Build once in a global setup before the workers start. A run without the setup still builds per worker.

The worker now joins after the page shows it is listening.

The spec also built the Face bundle in a hook that every worker runs, and a build rewrites the folder the other workers serve. The global setup now builds Studio, Talk, Face and Fine-tuning once, before the workers start. The spec builds the two bundles itself only when it runs without the global setup.

The Home page raises its own alert when the model list fails or a staging operation has failed, and both answers come from the shared test server. A slow reply or a failed install left there counted as an alert about the pin. The spec now fixes both answers, so the alert count tells only about the pin. The assertions are unchanged.

The click can run before the targeted page has rendered or while the button is still disabled, so no install request is sent and the poll on the install count times out.

Until React renders the targeted page, the page still draws the generic Reinstall button. It is enabled and has the same name, so the wait passed on it, the click started a global install, and no node install request was sent. The poll on the install count timed out with the confirm dialog still open. With the CPU throttled to 8x, the spec failed on 20 of 20 runs, and the button it clicked had the title "Reinstall". The spec now waits for the button titled "Reinstall on <node>". With the throttle it passes 30 of 30 runs. The assertions are unchanged.

Each is a cold load: the page shows "Loading" until the add-on module has run, and the next assertion had the default five seconds. The load takes about two seconds on an idle run and seven to ten under CPU load, so the spec failed on a loaded machine with the hand-off note not yet drawn. With the CPU throttled to 6x and eight busy loops running, it failed on 21 of 30 runs. The first assertion after each load now waits up to 20 seconds, and the spec then passed 30 of 30 under the same load. The assertions are unchanged.

The page, card, model list, known-faces table, enrol sheet and distance scale classes had no rules. They looked right only when the host had already loaded the style sheet of its own Faces page, which a visit through the add-on drawer does not do. Opened that way, the cards had no gap, the model list showed bullets, and the install buttons ran into the names. The Face sheet now holds the same identity rules as the core sheet, so the page looks the same whichever way it is opened.

They now sit in a max-width 720px query, and the reduced-motion rule in its own query, as in the core sheet.

It shows one Apps entry that opens the add-ons drawer, with a Show all link below it that opens the same drawer. Pins are used from the drawer, where a pinned tile keeps its pin and move buttons. The server pins API is unchanged. Remove the PinnedNav component and its locale title, rename the items.addons label to Apps, and update the e2e specs and the add-ons documentation to match.

The tests still looked for the h1 "Voices" and "Faces". Assert that the add-on page has exactly one h1 and that it is the shell title. The core pages keep their own "Voices" and "Faces" titles. Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5 playwright Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * fix(addons): drop the repeated title from the Voice Library and Text to speech pages The add-on shell already titles the page "Voice", so these two tabs showed a second heading below it ("Speech voices", "Speak text"). Keep the supporting line, as the Studio and recognition pages do, and remove the unused title strings. The e2e spec now checks that each tab has exactly one h1, the shell title.

Show all stays the last child. The pins come from GET /api/addons/pins through the navigation context, and the apps from the add-on registry, which the drawer feeds on every list read, so the links follow the drawer. A pin without an installed app is not drawn, nothing extra shows when no app is pinned, and the children are hidden when the sidebar is collapsed to the rail.

Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5 Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * fix(ui): remove the Show all link under Apps in the sidebar The link repeated the Apps entry, which opens the same drawer, and looked redundant when no app was pinned. Apps is now the only add-on entry; pinned apps still list under it in pin order. The link, its locale key and the style comment are gone, and the e2e spec and the add-ons docs now say that Apps is the only entry.

Its button opens the Browse tab. The card is hidden once an add-on is installed and for anyone who cannot install.

The pinned app links were still drawn there, with the indent meant for the full sidebar, so their icons sat to the right of the rail and were cut off. Hide the pinned app links in both rail states. The Apps entry keeps its centred icon. The e2e spec checks that the rail shows no pinned app and that every icon is centred at 1280 px collapsed and at 1000 px.

The Backends page then loads the installed list and drops a selected backend that is not installed, so the backend parameter was sometimes already gone when the test read it. The mock server has no llama-cpp, and about 15 of 40 repeated runs failed on the backend assertion. The redirect itself was correct, including show_all. Serve the selected backend in the installed list, so the page keeps the selection and the assertions stay as strict as before.

When Sec-Fetch-Site is present it must still be same-origin with an empty destination, as before. When it is absent, Origin or, failing that, Referer must name the request host and port. A destination or mode that is present must still be the expected one. This matches the rule in BrowserProtection. The credential, token cookie, API key and tool-context checks are unchanged.

A tab whose gate is closed now owns no route when the sidebar asks, so only the Apps entry is active there. The hubs keep their own routes, and the legacy navigation still gives /app/addons to the Build hub.

Each app tile now shows a button reading Pin, or Pinned with a filled pin, and the detail view has the same control in its header. Both toggle the same stored pin. The Apps grid lists pinned apps first, in pin order, then the others. The sidebar list and the server pins API are unchanged.

Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5 node playwright Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * fix(ui): stop the add-on shell drawing a title over add-on pages The app decides what its page shows. The shell drew the add-on name as a header above every add-on page, so an add-on could not choose its own title. The shell now draws no header on a live, loading or frozen add-on page; each add-on titles its own pages. The unavailable and missing-page states keep the name, because no add-on page is drawn there. The runtime and shell specs now check that the shell adds no page title. Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5 node playwright Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * fix(addons): let each add-on draw its own page title The shell no longer titles add-on pages, so each add-on draws one h1 per page. Voice titles its tabs "Voices" (Recognition and From a recording), "Speech voices" (Library) and "Speak text" (Text to speech); "Add a speech voice" already had its own. Face draws "Faces", Studio "Studio" and Talk "Talk". Tables promotes the database list and database name from h2 to h1. Fine-tuning and Quantization already drew a title. The add-on unit tests and the navigation and Studio specs now assert exactly one h1 per page, with the page's own title. Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5 node playwright Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * feat(addons): add a kind to library entries and read unknown kinds tolerantly A library entry now has an optional kind: addon (the default when it is absent), backend or model. Every index written before kinds existed stays valid and its entries are add-ons. A reader keeps the entries of the kinds it knows and skips the others without reading their fields, so a newer kind never makes an older host refuse the whole index. The refresh result and the library state report how many entries were skipped and of which kinds, and the refresh logs a warning. A kind that is not a plain kind name still makes the index malformed. Search lists add-ons unless the caller asks for a kind, and Resolve returns add-ons only, so an add-on install cannot be pointed at a backend image. A library policy may name the signer with an anchored identityRegex instead of an exact identity, so builds from master and from tags both verify. An add-on install refuses a policy that carries one. Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5 go Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * feat(backends): install a backend from a library entry A library can now list backends. An entry of kind backend names the image of the backend gallery by digest, and POST /backends/library/install installs it on the local node. The gallery stays the source of truth and its install path is the one used: the library resolves the entry, takes the signature policy from the library, pins the image by digest and calls the same install as the gallery. Installing a name that came from a gallery, another library or by hand is refused and changes nothing. The signature policy of a backend library names the signer with an anchored identityRegex, so images signed by the merge workflow on master and on tags both verify. A pattern that is not anchored is refused. An install is bounded by a size limit per kind: add-ons keep 512 MiB and a backend image defaults to 8 GiB, set with --addons-backend-max-bytes. The limit reads the manifest after the signature check and before any layer is fetched. The metadata of an installed backend records the library it came from. scripts/backends/cmd/backendcatalog renders entries from backend/index.yaml and pins them against the registry. The pilot is the CPU build of local-store, in gallery/backends/index.yaml. The library is registered on the first start only with --addons-backend-library, which is off by default. Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5 go Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * feat(ui): show the kind of library entries and install backends from them The Browse tab lists the entries of every kind this host reads and marks each one as an add-on or a backend. A backend installs through the backend route and not through the add-on lifecycle: the confirmation says that the backend gallery is not changed and that a backend runs native code, and a refusal of the host, such as a name installed from another origin, is shown with its own reason. The details give the kind, the alias and the signer pattern. The library editor can name the signer with a pattern. Without this a save would drop the pattern of a backend library. The Libraries tab reports the entries a refresh skipped because their kind is not read.

Add the install_library_backend tool with an in-process and an HTTP client, the route map entry, the safety-rule listing and a skill recipe. Listing library entries stays on the add-on routes, which the assistant does not expose, so no list tool is added.

Add the missing keys of the addons namespace to de, es, id, it, ko, pt-BR and zh-CN. The values are the English text until a translation is contributed. Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5 Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * feat(backends): report the steps of a library install as a job A backend install from a library ran inside the request and showed nothing until it ended. It is now a job of the gallery service, the kind the backend gallery installs use. The request answers with the job ID and GET /backends/jobs/{id} reports the step as the phase of the job: resolving, verifying, size, fetching and writing, with the byte progress of the fetch. A job that fails keeps the phase of the step that failed and gives the reason. A second install of the same name is refused while one runs. The downloader and the gallery install report their stages through an optional hook, so the steps are the real ones and not a guess. The Browse tab lists the steps of the entry being installed, marks the one that failed, and omits the signature step for a library that does not require one. The library installer also gets Updates and a route that lists the installed library backends with a newer build in their library, for the next change.

Gallery backends look and behave as before, and the gallery reinstall is not offered for a library backend, because the gallery does not list it. When the cached index of the library lists another build in the channel of the installed version, the row says "Update available" and offers an Update button. The button starts the same install as the Browse tab, and the detail shows its steps. Nothing is upgraded on its own. The check says nothing when the library no longer lists the installed version and has several channels, instead of guessing one.

The job-based install now takes a Progress value, so the application did not build. The MCP interface drops its unused status callback and the application adapts the installer to it.

The envelope lives in the catalog package so the other kinds can move to it. A gallery entry converts to a library entry and back to the same gallery entry. Floats are written so they read back as floats, and an empty variants list stays distinct from an absent one, because both occur in the real index. The reader is strict: unknown fields, duplicate ids, a second document and a flow-style list are refused. An entry of another kind is skipped and reported, as in the add-on reader. The gallery index stays the default and is not changed. Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5 go Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * feat(gallery): render the model library from the model gallery scripts/models/cmd/modelcatalog reads gallery/index.yaml with the same structs the host reads it with, converts every entry to a library entry and back, and fails if any entry does not come back equal. It writes gallery/models/index.yaml and the golden files for the tests. The output is deterministic, and the gallery is only read. The golden files are a digest pair for every entry (the gallery entry and the library entry made from it) and a readable gallery and library pair for each kind of entry: plain, with variants, with an empty variants list, with a config file, with a size, with a backend, with floats in the overrides, without a url, without files and with a multiline description. All 2212 entries of the index round trip. The gallery struct does not read a few keys (last_checked, parameters and four stray capitalised keys); the host drops them when it loads the index, so the library does not carry them, and the command reports them. Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5 go Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * feat(gallery): add --model-index-source to read the model library --model-index-source selects the file the host reads the models of the official gallery from: gallery (the default) or library. With library the gallery named localai reads the model library, from --model-library-url or the file in the repository, and keeps its configured name and URL on every entry. A gallery the owner added keeps its own index, and add-on and backend galleries never take this path. A library that cannot be fetched or read is an error and not a fall back to the gallery, so the setting is never silent. The tests round trip every entry of the real gallery index, compare it with the golden files, check the rendered library file reads and agrees with itself, and cover the strict reader, the kinds it skips, prompt templates, number types, empty lists and the setting. Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5 go Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * feat(backends): upgrade library backends with the auto-upgrade switch The upgrade checker now installs the newer build of a library backend when auto_upgrade_backends is on, on the same check that upgrades the gallery backends. With the switch off nothing is installed and the Update button stays manual. The switch is read on every check, so a change in the runtime settings applies at the next one. There is no second toggle. The tests cover both states and a host without a library. Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5 go Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * feat(cli): add local-ai library to manage library sources local-ai library has list, add, remove, enable and disable. It works on the source store the server reads (addons/sources.json under the data path), so it also works with the server stopped. A source has a kind (addon, backend or model); the store records whether it is a shipped default, and removing a default leaves a tombstone so it does not come back at the next start. The shipped model and backend gallery indexes are default sources next to the official add-on library. Defaults are added at every start when they have no record yet, and an existing file that holds no default is left alone as before. The --model-index-source and --model-library-url flags are removed: a model library is added as a model source, and the gallery entry says it is a library. Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5 go Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * feat(addons): let a source of your own win an entry over a default When two enabled sources list the same entry (same kind and id), the source the user added wins over a shipped default, and the default is ignored for that entry. When two sources the user added list it, search and resolve are refused with an error that names the entry and both sources, and nothing is picked silently. Among shipped defaults nothing changes. The tests cover a user source over a default, a tie between two user sources, a default ignored once a user source wins, and the case where disabling a source ends the conflict. Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5 go Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * feat(cli): map the gallery flags to library sources at startup --galleries and --backend-galleries keep loading the same JSON. At startup each entry they name also becomes a source the user owns, of kind model or backend, so local-ai library list shows it. The mapping is additive: an entry whose kind and URL is already a source (a shipped default, one added with the CLI, or one mapped at an earlier start) is not added twice, and a derived id never collides with another source. The sources then decide which galleries the server reads: a gallery whose source is disabled or removed is left out, and a model library or gallery added with local-ai library add is added. A list set by the flags still replaces the shipped defaults. If the store cannot be opened, the galleries stay as the flags set them. The autoload switches are not touched. Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5 go Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * refactor(library): use id for every kind and seed the default libraries The backend entries of the library used addonId while the model entries use id. Release now has the field ID, written as id for every kind. ReadIndex reads addonId as a legacy alias for one release, for add-ons and backends, and refuses an entry that holds both names. The backend index and the catalog generator write id. The shipped libraries are default sources. The pilot backend library is now on by default, like the official add-on library, and the model library is a new default model source, official-models. The server reads it next to the localai gallery. A source the user removed stays removed, and a source the user adds is added to the defaults. The model catalog header held a backtick that ended its raw string, so the generator did not build. The header no longer has it. Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5 go node playwright Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * feat(library): choose the default model source by build A build read both the localai gallery and the official-models library by default, so every model was listed twice. Now a build reads one of them. library.ModelSource names it: "library" or "gallery". The model source that is not chosen is still shipped, as a disabled default, and local-ai library enable turns it on. The value is a Go variable set at link time with -ldflags, because the same source tree makes both kinds of build and a constant would need a commit to change. It is "library" in the source, so a build from master, go build and go test read the library. Only the exact value "gallery" selects the gallery, so a mistyped value cannot leave a build without a model source. The Makefile sets it from LOCALAI_MODEL_SOURCE. When that is not set, a commit that carries a tag gets "gallery" and any other commit gets "library". .goreleaser.yaml passes the same variable and defaults to "gallery". The release workflow sets it to "library" on a tag, which is the cutover. A default source is seeded once, so a data directory that an earlier build seeded keeps its enabled flags. Switch it with local-ai library enable and disable. Tests assert the master default, the tagged default before the cutover and after it, and that a mistyped value reads the library. The model library header now says that CI checks it and when a build reads it. Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5 go node Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * ci(library): check the model library and cut over on tag No workflow checked gallery/models/index.yaml, so it could go stale when gallery/index.yaml changed. A new workflow, model-library.yml, runs on pull requests and on master when the gallery, the library, the generator or core/gallery change. It runs the generator tests and the library shape tests (the file decodes, it has the library shape, every real entry round trips), then renders the library again from gallery/index.yaml and fails on any difference with git diff --exit-code. The error message gives the command that fixes it. release.yaml gets the cutover. On a tag, a step sets LOCALAI_MODEL_SOURCE=library before GoReleaser runs, and .goreleaser.yaml links it into the binary. Without that step a tagged build reads the gallery. The step is the one place to remove when the gallery is retired. Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5 go Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * feat(library): make the model library the source of the gallery The library, gallery/models/index.yaml, was rendered from the gallery. Now it is the source and models are edited there. modelcatalog reads the library and writes gallery/index.yaml, a generated copy that stays only so releases before the cutover keep working. The gallery file is written in the shape the host reads: the same field order, floats such as 1.0 keep their form, and an empty variants list stays apart from an absent one. The command converts every library entry to a gallery entry and back, loads its own output the way the host does, and fails when an entry comes back different. The gallery copy drops what the library cannot carry: last_checked, parameters and four capitalised keys (Base Model, Context Length, License, Training Data). The gallery struct has no field for any of them, so the host ignored them on load. Every run lists these keys and how often the file being replaced still had each. Loading the old and the new gallery with the host structs gives equal entries for all 2212 models. The tests that read the library and the golden files follow in the next commit. Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5 go Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * ci(library): check the library and that the gallery is its copy The model-library workflow assumed the gallery was the source. It now checks the library file, the new source. The library decodes, every entry has the library shape, every entry converts to a gallery entry and back, and the gallery reader loads the generated gallery and sees the same names, file uris and digests. The workflow then generates gallery/index.yaml again and fails on any diff with git diff --exit-code. The message says the file is generated, not to edit it by hand, and gives the command that regenerates it. The tests in core/gallery read the library file now. The round trip runs library to gallery and back on all 2212 real entries, a new test compares the checked-in gallery with the generated copy so go test finds a hand edit too, and the golden digests and samples are written from the library. The version of an entry is no longer compared with a digest of its content, since an edit to the library does not change it. The docs say the library is the source, the gallery file is a generated copy for releases before the cutover, and edits go to the library. The agent guide for adding models says the same. Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5 go Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * feat(library): add admin routes for library sources and an official libraries switch The library sources of the add-on, backend and model kinds had a CLI but no HTTP routes. Add them for administrators, on the same store and the same functions as `local-ai library`, so the two cannot drift: GET /api/library/sources POST /api/library/sources POST /api/library/sources/{id}/enable POST /api/library/sources/{id}/disable DELETE /api/library/sources/{id} The list carries kind, default, removed (a tombstone), suspended and the conflict message of a source that clashes with another one. A change to a model or backend source applies to the running server. A deleted source drops its gallery by address; a removed default keeps its record. Add the runtime setting official_libraries (default on), with the flag --official-libraries. When it is off, every shipped default source of the three kinds is suspended: it is not read, stays in the store marked default, and comes back when the setting is on again. Sources the user added are not affected. Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5 go Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * feat(ui): list library sources of all three kinds in the Libraries tab The Libraries tab of the Add-ons page now lists the sources of the add-on, backend and model kinds from the new library routes. It has a kind filter with counts, a Default badge, the state of each source (enabled, disabled, removed, or off while the official libraries are off), turn on and off, a Restore button for a removed default, and the conflict message next to a source that clashes. Adding a source takes a kind and, for backends and models, an index format. Settings gets the toggle "Use official libraries" for the official_libraries setting. Add unit tests for the list and the kind filter, and a Playwright spec that runs on a fresh test server started with --library-sources (its own config, port 8097): it lists the three kinds, adds a model source, disables and removes a default, checks the conflict message and the official libraries toggle.

The backend gallery holds more that matters at install and in the UI, so the library could not replace it. Add the missing fields to the backend kind and keep the strict reader. New fields, all refused on an add-on entry: - mirrors: ordered fallback images of the same backend, each oci://. The install pins them with the digest of the artifact. - capabilities: a map from a host capability to a backend id. An entry with capabilities and no artifact is a meta backend. It has no digest, os or arch, is listed for every platform, and installing it installs the backend its capability names, in the same library and channel. - license, urls, tags: display metadata, bounded and checked as text. - icon: an https URL. The add-on ui.icon stays a path in the package. The host never fetches the icon. - mutable: the artifact is a moving tag, such as a development image. The entry has no digest. The install resolves the tag to a digest, verifies that image and records the digest it installed. - schemaVersion: the envelope version. A higher one is refused. The index bounds grow to 8 MiB and 4000 entries, because the backend library lists every image for every platform. Release now holds lists, so the add-on staging compares it with Equal instead of ==. Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5 go Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * feat(library): render the backend library from the whole backend gallery Add the conversion between a gallery backend and its library entries in core/gallery, and make scripts/backends/cmd/backendcatalog build the library from the gallery and the gallery from the library. The library now holds all 1093 gallery entries as 1088 backends, because five names appear twice in the gallery with the same content and are folded. That is 934 concrete backends and 154 meta backends, written as 1240 entries: a backend built for several platforms has one entry for each, with the digest of that platform image. - 539 release entries are pinned by the digest the registry serves for the platform. - 543 development entries (master-* tags) keep their tag and are mutable. The install pins them. - 4 release entries are not pinned, because the registry has no image for them: cpu-qdrant-store, metal-qdrant-store, cpu-gemxcpp and vulkan-gemxcpp. They are marked mutable and no digest is invented. Render them again with --repin once the images exist. The generator can import a gallery once, pin the release images again, and write the gallery file from the library without the network. Before it writes it converts every backend to the library and back and fails if one does not come back equal. A policy is no longer written on each entry, because the host takes the policy of the library source.

The golden input is the real backend gallery from before the library became the source: 1093 entries, kept under core/gallery/testdata/backend_library with the pins the library holds and the digest of each generated entry. TestBackendLibraryRoundTripsEveryRealGalleryEntry converts each entry to library entries, writes them as an index, reads them as a host does, validates them and converts them back. It asserts that all 1093 entries come back equal on every field the gallery reader uses, and logs the count. The five names that appear twice in the gallery have the same content, so the twin is checked against the first one and folded. The other tests check the library file in the repository: every entry passes the host checks, every backend round trips, every meta backend names concrete backends the library has, a development entry keeps its master-* tag and has no digest, and the golden digests still match. Unit tests cover each field, the fields the library cannot carry, which are refused rather than dropped, and entries of one backend that disagree. An entry with no artifact, digest, os or arch no longer writes them as empty strings, so a meta backend and a mutable entry stay short. Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5 go Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * feat(library): make the backend library the source of the backend gallery Flip the source the way the model library did. The backend library, gallery/backends/index.yaml, is where backends are edited. The backend gallery, backend/index.yaml, is now generated from it by scripts/backends/cmd/backendcatalog and stays only so releases before the cutover keep working. It no longer has anchors or hand-written order, and it holds 1088 backends: the five names that were listed twice with the same content are folded. Which source a build reads is set at build time, like the model source: - core/library.BackendSource is "library" or "gallery". Only the exact value "gallery" selects the gallery, so a mistyped value cannot leave a build with no backend source. - A build from master reads the library. The Makefile reads the gallery for a commit that carries a tag (LOCALAI_BACKEND_SOURCE), and GoReleaser defaults to the gallery. - A step in release.yaml sets LOCALAI_BACKEND_SOURCE=library, so a tagged build cuts over by itself. - Both sources are shipped and one is enabled. With --addons-backend-library=false every build reads the gallery. The server hands the shipped backend library to the gallery reader as a library, so the Backends page lists it and installs from it the way it did from the gallery. A backend library the user adds stays with the add-on catalog. The shipped library is now a backend source, not an add-on one. The new workflow backend-library.yml runs the tests, regenerates backend/index.yaml and fails on a diff. It never reads the registry. backendcatalog --add merges backends written in the gallery shape into the library, so adding a backend does not mean writing platform entries by hand; the agent guide says so.

The library file is the source of truth and the backend gallery is a generated copy that is never edited by hand. - backends.md: the library and the generated gallery, which source a build reads (master, tagged before the cutover, tagged after it), the --addons-backend-library switch, how to add a backend and generate the gallery, and what CI checks. - addons.md: the full backend entry with the new fields (mirrors, capabilities, license, urls, tags, icon URL, mutable, schemaVersion), meta backends, development images pinned at install, and the backend library section in place of the pilot one. - compatibility-table.md: point to the library as the source.

The mirrors go into the gallery entries the server reads, and a source can be edited with PUT /api/library/sources/:id. The mirror forms accepted are http(s), github:, oci:// and file://, at most eight per source. Sources saved before this change load without mirrors.

Filter chips above the list narrow it to one library, and a panel adds, edits, turns on or off, refreshes and removes sources of that kind. The add-on Libraries tab lists add-on sources only. Settings shows the model and backend galleries as a read-only view of the library sources, with their mirrors. Mirrors are edited in the panel.

With LOCALAI_DISABLE_BACKEND_INSTALL=1 every install and upgrade path refuses — gallery, OCI/URL/path, node-scoped, auto-upgrade, boot-time external backends — HTTP routes answer 403 up front, and a model whose backend is missing is refused before any download: 409 on the API, an error on preload and import. Whether a backend is present is asked of the execution target: the local backend directory on a single node, the workers' listings on a distributed frontend, which installs nothing itself.

Choose the port once, keep it in the add-on state root (loopback-port, mode 0600) and reuse it. If the port is taken at a later start, stop with an error that names the port and --addons-enabled=false, because another port would break the identity check. The keys and certificate stay in memory.

The add-on builder refuses a bundle that holds a host file, so moving such a page into an add-on meant rewriting it. Add a compat mode to the shared builder. It answers those imports from a directory of stand-ins that read the SDK, bundles the dynamic import of the page code into the one output file, and collects the style sheets the page imports. A relative import that is not in the add-on's own source resolves to the file at the same path under the compat directory. Widen the SDK for these pages, without a version change: more host components (spinner, modal, lightbox, model picker) and hooks (models, resources, voice profiles, operations, MCP client), a style on icons, the icon names the pages draw, sdk.navigation.openApp to open a page of the app (only addresses under /app, and the way back as the only state) and sdk.portal. The shell passes the query string to the page. The stand-ins cover the router (the tab in the path, the model in the query), the translator over the host locale files, the core API calls through sdk.core.fetch, and byte copies of the pure helpers, with tests that keep the copies equal to the originals.

They are add-ons now, like Voice, Face, fine-tuning and quantization: a person installs and removes them, the drawer lists them only while they are installed, and they are packaged the same way. Move the pages, their components, hooks and helpers into addons/studio and addons/talk. Each has a manifest, a UI bundle, a release platform matrix and a catalog template, and is built by the compat mode of the shared builder. The core API stays where it is: the pages call it with the signed-in person's session. The history keeps its browser storage keys. The unit tests of the moved helpers move with them. In the core, drop the two pages, the Create group of the sidebar (Chat joins Home and Models in the old layout), the built-in catalog entries (the catalog is empty) and the talk locale namespace. The old addresses (/app/studio, /app/talk and the generator links) redirect to the add-on pages, with the model as ?model=. The Home /studio command is offered only while the Studio add-on is installed and opens it. The release workflow and its tests now list seven add-ons.

Update the specs for the new addresses (/app/addons/studio/studio, the model as ?model=), the session permission the add-on route needs, the legacy redirects, the Home /studio command that appears only while the add-on is installed, and the sidebar without a Create group. Add specs for the add-ons themselves: every tab draws with no script error, the shell titles the page once, the old addresses say so when the add-on is not installed, a button of the page reaches a core page with the way back, and the drawer lists both only after they are installed.

Only the placeholder box was laid out as a centred grid with the 20px size, so the real icon sat in the top-left corner at the size of the page text.

On the first start, when the owner has no sources.json, register the raw GitHub URL of that index on master as the "official" library and write the file.

It now has one page, "voice", and one drawer entry. Recognition, Library, Text to speech and From a recording are tabs of that page, drawn with the same tab strip the recognition page already used. The tab is the first path segment (voice/library), as in the Studio add-on, and the form that adds a voice is a view of the Library tab (voice/library/new).

Until React renders the targeted page, the page still draws the generic Reinstall button. It is enabled and has the same name, so the wait passed on it, the click started a global install, and no node install request was sent. The poll on the install count timed out with the confirm dialog still open. With the CPU throttled to 8x, the spec failed on 20 of 20 runs, and the button it clicked had the title "Reinstall".

Each is a cold load: the page shows "Loading" until the add-on module has run, and the next assertion had the default five seconds. The load takes about two seconds on an idle run and seven to ten under CPU load, so the spec failed on a loaded machine with the hand-off note not yet drawn. With the CPU throttled to 6x and eight busy loops running, it failed on 21 of 30 runs.

They looked right only when the host had already loaded the style sheet of its own Faces page, which a visit through the add-on drawer does not do. Opened that way, the cards had no gap, the model list showed bullets, and the install buttons ran into the names.

Show all stays the last child. The pins come from GET /api/addons/pins through the navigation context, and the apps from the add-on registry, which the drawer feeds on every list read, so the links follow the drawer.

The mock server has no llama-cpp, and about 15 of 40 repeated runs failed on the backend assertion. The redirect itself was correct, including show_all.

The Apps grid lists pinned apps first, in pin order, then the others. The sidebar list and the server pins API are unchanged.

The shell drew the add-on name as a header above every add-on page, so an add-on could not choose its own title. The shell now draws no header on a live, loading or frozen add-on page; each add-on titles its own pages. The unavailable and missing-page states keep the name, because no add-on page is drawn there. The runtime and shell specs now check that the shell adds no page title.

Voice titles its tabs "Voices" (Recognition and From a recording), "Speech voices" (Library) and "Speak text" (Text to speech); "Add a speech voice" already had its own. Face draws "Faces", Studio "Studio" and Talk "Talk". Tables promotes the database list and database name from h2 to h1. Fine-tuning and Quantization already drew a title. The add-on unit tests and the navigation and Studio specs now assert exactly one h1 per page, with the page's own title.

Every index written before kinds existed stays valid and its entries are add-ons. A reader keeps the entries of the kinds it knows and skips the others without reading their fields, so a newer kind never makes an older host refuse the whole index. The refresh result and the library state report how many entries were skipped and of which kinds, and the refresh logs a warning. A kind that is not a plain kind name still makes the index malformed. Search lists add-ons unless the caller asks for a kind, and Resolve returns add-ons only, so an add-on install cannot be pointed at a backend image. A library policy may name the signer with an anchored identityRegex instead of an exact identity, so builds from master and from tags both verify. An add-on install refuses a policy that carries one. Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5 go Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * feat(backends): install a backend from a library entry A library can now list backends. An entry of kind backend names the image of the backend gallery by digest, and POST /backends/library/install installs it on the local node. The gallery stays the source of truth and its install path is the one used: the library resolves the entry, takes the signature policy from the library, pins the image by digest and calls the same install as the gallery. Installing a name that came from a gallery, another library or by hand is refused and changes nothing. The signature policy of a backend library names the signer with an anchored identityRegex, so images signed by the merge workflow on master and on tags both verify. A pattern that is not anchored is refused. An install is bounded by a size limit per kind: add-ons keep 512 MiB and a backend image defaults to 8 GiB, set with --addons-backend-max-bytes. The limit reads the manifest after the signature check and before any layer is fetched. The metadata of an installed backend records the library it came from. scripts/backends/cmd/backendcatalog renders entries from backend/index.yaml and pins them against the registry. The pilot is the CPU build of local-store, in gallery/backends/index.yaml. The library is registered on the first start only with --addons-backend-library, which is off by default.

A backend installs through the backend route and not through the add-on lifecycle: the confirmation says that the backend gallery is not changed and that a backend runs native code, and a refusal of the host, such as a name installed from another origin, is shown with its own reason. The details give the kind, the alias and the signer pattern. The library editor can name the signer with a pattern. Without this a save would drop the pattern of a backend library. The Libraries tab reports the entries a refresh skipped because their kind is not read.

The chat header now has an Add-ons button in the style of the MCP dropdown. It lists each running add-on that ships tools with a switch, and a badge shows how many are on. The chat keeps the ids that are on (addonToolIds) next to the older boolean, and both are saved with the chat. A chat that has only the boolean means every add-on. The request sends addon_tools alone when every add-on is on, and adds addon_tool_ids when only some are. /addons turns all on or all off and uses the same state.

The list counts only with the opt-in, and a list that names nothing offers no tool rather than all of them. The executor drops the tools of add-ons that are not listed and refuses a call to one as an unknown tool, so a model cannot reach a tool the person turned off.

Once the page mounts it draws its own title, including when it says it is not enabled on this server, and the shell draws none. The shell code already works this way; this change states the rule beside the unavailable state and pins it in the specs. The shell spec now expects exactly one title in the unavailable states. The navigation spec checks the Face page without a face model (the add-on title only) and the Face page of a stopped add-on (the shell title only).

It follows the backend setting: a startup flag, a runtime setting, and the same schedule as the backend update check (a first pass shortly after start, then every six hours). Each pass fetches the library of every installed add-on, and for each available update builds the same pinned upgrade command an administrator sends and runs it through the same lifecycle path. The channel rules, the signer identity, the digest checks, the SDK compatibility check and the backup before the upgrade all apply unchanged. The only difference is the gate: the owner acts on its own setting, so no administrator is asked. A refused or failed upgrade changes nothing and is logged; a candidate that failed is not retried until the library lists another digest. With the setting off, nothing runs and upgrades stay manual.

The manager specs show the upgrade goes through the same pinned path as the manual one, and that a corrupted package, a failed signature policy, an incompatible release, a missing update checker and a caller who is not an administrator each leave the installed version in place. The new specs are added to the lifecycle case inventory. The add-ons page describes the setting, its schedule and its default.

The digests in the index did not change. DecodeIndex still reads addonId as a legacy alias for one release, so an existing library and a library served by an older tool keep working.

Stefan Walcz	6fc2bc4967	fix(chat-history): create the store after the auth database is opened (#12788) ... The conversation routes are only registered when the chat history store exists, and the store needs the auth database. It was created in start(), which New() runs before it opens the auth database, so the store was always nil and /api/conversations answered 404 with auth enabled; the React UI fell back to localStorage and nothing was synced between devices. The route tests register the routes with a store directly and never went through New(). Create the store right after the auth database is opened, and cover it through New(): with auth the store exists, without auth or with the WebUI disabled it stays nil.

mudler-agentandEttore Di Giacinto	dce91ba7aa	fix(backends): prefer installed development builds (#12782) ... * fix(ci): capture and surface ginkgo errors in run-coverage.sh The coverage script ran ginkgo per test root with `|| fail=1`, which swallowed the exit code. Combined with `make --output-sync=target`, which buffers all output and flushes at the end, the actual ginkgo error was invisible in interleaved CI logs. Every test suite passed but the script still exited 1, and the error message was buried in 22 000 lines of buffered output. Each ginkgo invocation now captures combined stdout+stderr to a per-root log file. On failure the last 80 lines are printed to stderr so the error is visible in the CI log. On success the log is replayed to stdout so test output remains visible. The build flags (--tags, --coverpkg) are quoted correctly so values containing spaces (e.g. --tags="debug auth") are preserved through eval. Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * fix(ci): create output dir before writing ginkgo logs The previous commit added per-root log files but forgot to create the output directory before the first ginkgo invocation.

The test flagged the route as an anonymous-access leak, failing the entire ./core ginkgo suite on every CI run since.

4 people	36307005a9	feat(chat-history): server-side chat history with tombstones (follow-up to #9902) (#12663) ... * feat(schema): add Conversation schema for chat history (#9432) Persist WebUI chat conversations server-side so browser refresh, private windows, or device changes preserve user history (issue #9432). This commit adds the on-disk representation: - Conversation holds id, name, model, opaque history, MCP / sampling settings, and timestamps. - ConversationsFile is the per-user list serialised to JSON. History is stored as json.RawMessage so the server stays agnostic to React message shapes (user / assistant / thinking / tool_call / tool_result mixed with text / image_url / audio_url / file attachments).

Each user's conversations live under {baseDir}/{userID}/conversations.json (anonymous/ when auth is disabled). Design choices: - In-memory cache backed by sync.Mutex so concurrent saves don't interleave writes. - Atomic write via tmp file + os.Rename so a crash mid-save never leaves a corrupted history. - ID validation regex blocks path-traversal payloads at the store boundary, in addition to the auth context constraint. Tests cover round-trip persistence across instances, user isolation, unsafe-ID rejection, bulk replace migration, and the anonymous fallback path. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-opus-4-7 Signed-off-by: TLoE419 <tloemizuchizu@gmail.com> * feat(api): expose chat conversation CRUD endpoints (#9432) Wire the chathistory store into the HTTP layer. New endpoints under /api/conversations: - GET /api/conversations list - POST /api/conversations upsert (id in body) - DELETE /api/conversations delete all - PUT /api/conversations/bulk replace entire set (localStorage migration) - GET /api/conversations/:id fetch one - PUT /api/conversations/:id upsert (id in path; path id wins over body) - DELETE /api/conversations/:id delete one All endpoints scope queries to the authenticated user via getUserID(c) - callers cannot impersonate other users by passing a user_id in the body. The endpoints are gated behind the new chat_history feature permission (default ON in APIFeatures), registered through the existing RouteFeatureRegistry so the unified feature middleware picks them up automatically. Application.ChatHistoryStore() returns nil when DisableWebUI is set or no persistence path is configured, in which case route registration is skipped entirely rather than registering handlers that always 503. Also adds the chat-history instruction entry and Swagger tag so the endpoint surfaces in /api/instructions and /swagger.

When the endpoint responds 200, the server becomes the authoritative source: the hook merges remote conversations into local state and pushes per-chat PUT updates on each debounced save. When the endpoint 404s - older LocalAI deploys or the feature disabled - the hook silently keeps the old localStorage-only behaviour, so the change is backward-compatible. Migration: when the server is reachable but empty and the browser has local conversations with history, the hook fires a single PUT /api/conversations/bulk to seed the server. The atomic bulk endpoint avoids partial-upload states where a retry would skip already-uploaded entries. Delete operations propagate to the server when it's available; failures are silently swallowed so the local UI stays responsive on transient network errors.

Restructured the same six scenarios into Describe / Context / It blocks, with a chathistory_suite_test.go bootstrap that registers the Ginkgo fail handler. Test coverage is unchanged: basic CRUD round-trip, cross- instance persistence, user isolation, unsafe ID rejection (now via DescribeTable), bulk replace overwrite, and the anonymous fallback path.

Chat history was the only per-user state in LocalAI sitting in a separate filesystem store instead of the shared GORM database — AgentStore and JobStore both live there. Move it onto Application.authDB so per-user state stays in one place. * ConversationRecord (GORM model) with composite primary key (user_id, conv_id) — React mints IDs locally with no global coordination so per-user uniqueness is the natural shape. * Store.New(db *gorm.DB) replaces Store.New(baseDir string). Save / Get / List / Delete / DeleteAll / ReplaceAll keep their signatures so HTTP handlers and the React UI are untouched. * ReplaceAll runs in a transaction with an Unscoped() pre-clear so a future retention sweep cannot resurrect a stale ID on re-upload. * gorm.DeletedAt in the schema means a future retention pruner is a one-line query — addresses the second half of the review (unbounded in-memory map). The map is gone: reads go straight to the DB. Trade-off worth flagging in the PR reply: chat history persistence now requires auth.Enabled = true (that's what initialises Application.authDB). With auth disabled the React UI transparently falls back to localStorage, the same path the original PR took on 404. Consistent with AgentStore / JobStore; if a "chat history always on" mode is preferred we can pull DB init out of auth.InitDB into a shared helper.

The previous file-based fixtures (TempDir, filepath.Join checks) are no longer meaningful now that the store talks GORM. Tests are skipped on macOS (testcontainers needs Docker) and run on CI, same as the other GORM-backed suites in the repo. Also reframed two cases: * "unsafe IDs" → "malformed IDs" — the DB-backed store doesn't care about path traversal, but idRegex still rejects whitespace / control characters so IDs stay safe in logs and HTTP responses. * "anonymous user" no longer pins a directory path (no directory exists anymore); instead it checks the round-trip plus the per-user isolation guarantee. Added a DeleteAll round-trip to cover the bulk-clear endpoint.

Inject the *chathistory.Store into the handlers instead of the whole Application and move the route table into RegisterChatHistoryRoutes, so a spec can drive the real registration and middleware chain (auth.Middleware plus the chat_history feature gate) against an in-memory SQLite auth database. The new specs cover 401 without credentials on every route, 403 when an admin revoked chat_history, the CRUD round trip, path id over body id, 400 on malformed ids and bodies, per-user isolation, bulk replace and delete-all, and that a nil store registers nothing (the UI then falls back to localStorage). The handlers' nil-store branches are gone: the routes are only registered with a store, so those branches could never run. Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-opus-5-5 Signed-off-by: Stefan Walcz <stefan.walcz@walcz.de> * fix(chathistory): make deletions final with tombstones and versions A conversation deleted on one device came back as soon as a client with a stale copy wrote it again: Delete soft-deleted the row, and the next Save went through GORM's upsert, which cleared deleted_at and resurrected it for every device. The lookup that recovered CreatedAt also ran outside any transaction, so concurrent writers raced on it. The server is now authoritative over deletions: * Delete turns the row into a tombstone: content dropped, deleted_at set. It is idempotent, and deleting an id the server has not seen yet still records a tombstone, so a delete that overtakes the UI's in-flight debounced save of the same chat still wins. * Save runs in a transaction, refuses a tombstoned id with ErrDeleted (HTTP 410 Gone), and bumps the version with a single UPDATE ... SET version = version + 1 guarded by deleted_at IS NULL, so concurrent writers each count and a delete committed between the lookup and the write still wins. Two concurrent first writes of the same id retry once (ON CONFLICT DO NOTHING, then update). * Every row carries a server-assigned version (1 on the first save, +1 per write including the delete), returned to the client. A non-zero version tells the UI the server has seen a conversation, which is how it can tell a never-synced draft from a server-side deletion. * GET /api/conversations returns the tombstones under "deleted". * DeleteAll and ReplaceAll leave tombstones too. ReplaceAll no longer hard-deletes everything first; it upserts the payload, skips ids that were deleted (reported in "skipped"), and tombstones the rest. * createdAt/updatedAt are stored as the client sends them (only zero values are stamped), so clients compare updatedAt from their own clocks rather than against the server's. The store specs now run against PostgreSQL (testcontainers) and, with the auth tag, SQLite through auth.InitDB, since both back the auth database.

A stale browser therefore uploaded chats deleted on another device as if they were new drafts, and a message sent while the list request was still in flight was replaced by the older server copy and then lost from localStorage too. The first load now reconciles with the server's tombstones and versions: * a chat the server lists under "deleted" is dropped locally; * a chat on both sides keeps the copy with the newer updatedAt, so an edit made during the load wins and is uploaded afterwards; * a chat only in the browser is uploaded only if it was never synced (no version). With a version the server has seen it and no longer has it, so it is dropped instead of resurrected (this also keeps one account's cached chats out of another account on a shared browser); * deletes made while the list is loading are queued and sent once it arrives. Saves record the version the server returns, and a 410 on save drops the chat locally instead of retrying it forever. Chats received from the server count as already sent, so adopting a server copy no longer echoes it straight back. The bulk localStorage migration is gone: it replaced the whole server set from a possibly stale browser, and the per-chat saves already upload never-synced drafts through the tombstone check. The Playwright spec drives each case against a stubbed /api/conversations that follows the server contract.

Add the field on both sides. The other fields createNewChat sets were already covered; a handler spec now round-trips all of them, and the UI spec checks the toggle on the way up and in the local cache.

A draft that one account could not upload (a failed first save) stayed in it, and after that account signed out and another signed in, the reconcile kept the unversioned draft and the save pass uploaded it into the second account. The cache now lives under localai_chats_data:<user id>, Chat remounts its state when the account changes, and nothing is synced without a signed-in account. The shared key is left for browser-only use without auth and is not uploaded when signed in, because nothing tells which account it belongs to. Deletes were dropped locally and their DELETE errors swallowed; only deletes made while the first list was loading were queued, and not persisted. A delete made while the server was unreachable therefore came back with the next list. Deletes (single, delete all, and deletes on the Home page) are now kept as pending deletes in the account's cache until the server confirms them, override the server list in the reconcile, and are sent again on the next change, on the online event and on the next load. While a delete-all is pending no conversation is uploaded, so a chat started after it is not caught by it. The Playwright specs replay both review scenarios (account switch after a failed first save; delete and delete-all while offline) with counter-checks that the same account keeps and uploads its own draft and that a confirmed delete is neither re-sent nor resurrected.

Reverting 03cd9c115's save in clearAllChats turns it red again. - "a delete the server confirmed is not sent again" reopened the page as soon as the server had the request, before the page had the answer; the unconfirmed delete was then rightly sent again (4 of 5 runs).

Add the field. The handler spec that round-trips every chat field now includes reasoningEffort.

mudler-agentandEttore Di Giacinto	39b3b31153	fix(backends): flag a llama-cpp backend that predates native decisions (#12733) ... A decision request (/v1/systemone, /v1/decisions) sends Score with question_type "systemone". A backend built before native decisions ignores that field and runs plain scoring, so the caller saw "Score was not enabled" (500) or "candidates must be non-empty" (400). The gallery "latest" image can lag behind the server, and the upgrade check compares only tag, version and digest, so /backends/upgrades did not list the backend. Recognise those two errors for a decision request, return 501 with a message that says the backend is older than the server and must be upgraded, and mark the backend stale. The upgrade check now reports a marked backend with a `reason`, and refreshes at once. Reinstalling the backend drops the mark; if the new image is still old, the next request marks it again. Model loading is not affected. Refreshing the "latest" backend image is a separate publishing step and is not part of this change.

mudler-agentandEttore Di Giacinto	c7ce0c602c	fix: stop listing the models directory on request paths and cache GGUF header reads (#12683) ... * fix(http): stop listing the models directory on embeddings and bearer requests Every embeddings request read the whole models directory before the body was parsed, even when the body named its model. On a network-backed models directory this cost seconds per request. Embeddings now binds the body first and looks up a default model only when the body has none, like chat. The pre-bind default lookup and the gpt-4o constant default are gone from that route. The first-available default lookup skips the directory when the filter cannot accept an unconfigured file. Every usecase filter rejects files without a config, so the scan never added results for them. Match-all, nil and name filters keep the scan. The bearer token check is now an exact test: a configured name, or one stat of that name in the models directory. The value is a literal, not a regular expression, and a name that is not a local relative path never matches a file. Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-haiku-5-5 * perf(config): cache GGUF header reads for model defaults Model defaults re-parsed the GGUF header on every SetDefaults call, which runs per request and at startup reload. Put a bounded LRU in front of the parser, keyed by absolute path and validated by size and modification time. The cached value is a snapshot of the fields the defaults use, not the parser output. A changed size or mtime is a miss. Missing files and parse errors are not cached, so the existing fallback is unchanged. LOCALAI_DISABLE_GUESSING, the empty-path guard, the alias early return, the panic recovery and the context-size default are all kept in front of the cache. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-haiku-5-5 * test(http): cover listing-free default lookup on every usecase route Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-haiku-5-5 * feat(config): persist the GGUF header cache per instance The header cache kept parsed GGUF results only in memory, so every restart parsed each model file again before its defaults were known. Write the cache to a per-instance file in the data path and load it at startup. A restarted frontend with a fixed instance ID starts warm. The file is versioned and records the estimator inputs (gguf-parser version, candidate contexts, auto context size, offload count). A mismatch on any of them makes the file ignored. Each entry keeps path, size and mtime, so a changed model file is a miss on load. Writes run on one background saver, debounced, through a temp file and rename. The entry bound applies to the file as well. Without a data path the cache stays in memory only. Documented as a per-instance exception in the model configuration docs. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-haiku-5-5 * docs(embeddings): document model selection and the no-model error Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-haiku-5-5 * refactor(config): split the header cache into a generic cache The GGUF header cache mixed two things: the mechanics (bounded LRU keyed by path and identity, per-instance file, debounced atomic save, tolerant load) and the GGUF fields. Move the mechanics into headerCache[S], driven by a headerCacheSpec[S] that names the file prefix, schema, fingerprint, parser and the snapshot encode/decode pair. The GGUF cache becomes one instance of it. File names, the identity check, LRU size, debounce, atomic write and the corruption handling are unchanged. The on-disk JSON keeps the "estimator" key so existing files still load. Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-haiku-5-5 * feat(config): share one GGUF header cache file between frontends Every frontend used to write its own header cache file, named after its instance ID, so a header read by one frontend was never reused by another. The cache now uses one file, header-cache.json, in the data path, for all frontends and for standalone mode. The instance ID no longer changes the file name. Frontends share the file in three ways. A save first merges the file's entries in, so one frontend's write does not drop another's entries. A miss reloads the file when its modification time has changed, and a hit never reads it. Writes go to a temp file that is renamed into place, so a reader never sees a partial file. Two frontends saving at the same moment can still drop each other's last entries. That costs one re-parse, never a wrong value, because every entry is checked against its model file before use. The shared file is valid only when every frontend mounts the same data volume. The distributed-mode and model-configuration docs state this mode and its volume limit.

Stefan Walcz	e3341d21a0	feat(pii): extend a detection over the previous word (extend_to_previous_word) ... The mirror of extend_to_next_word. A name model often tags the surname with high confidence and scores the first name in front of it below min_score, so "Gast Greta Waldmeister" became "Gast Greta [REDACTED:ner:LASTNAME]". extend_to_previous_word lists entity groups whose accepted detections also cover the word directly before them on the same line. The preceding word must consist of letters (plus '-' and the apostrophe): a word with digits - an amount, a date, a room number - is never taken, nor is a protected term, and the search never crosses a line break.

Stefan Walcz	e16b9d04cc	feat(pii): protected terms that pass the NER filter unchanged ... A name model reads many business names as surnames. Measured with privacy-filter-multilingual on 24 synthetic German receipts and invoices: the supplier name ("Hotel Seeblick", "Café Lindenhof", ...) was masked as LASTNAME (0.78-0.98) or FIRSTNAME in 9 of 12 receipts that carried one. The supplier is exactly what the upstream model needs to categorise a receipt, and no score floor helps at those confidences. pii_detection.protected_terms (inline) and pii_detection.protected_terms_files (files inside the models path, one term per line, '#' comments, re-read when size or mtime change) list values that must pass unchanged. Each whole-word, case-insensitive occurrence is replaced by a neutral placeholder before the detector runs; every detection is mapped back onto the original text with the placeholder parts cut out, so a protected term is never masked or blocked, the detector never sees it as context, and event offsets keep addressing the original text. A word extension (extend_to_next_word) is dropped rather than run into a protected term. Terms shorter than three characters are ignored. A missing or unreadable file is logged and skipped: fewer protected terms means more masking, never less. Paths are verified to stay inside the models path. Opt-in, empty by default. Covered by Ginkgo specs in core/services/routing/pii/protected_test.go (detector-visible text, exact restoration, straddling detections, whole-word/case/line-wrap matching, the segment path, file loading and reload), a YAML round-trip spec, registry entries and the middleware/model-configuration docs.

Stefan Walcz	9b13408c94	feat(pii): extend a detection over the next word (extend_to_next_word) ... Address models tend to tag a postal code with high confidence but miss or under-score the town right after it. Measured with privacy-filter-multilingual on 24 synthetic German invoices: the postal code was masked every time, while the town after it stayed in the clear in 6 of 18 cases (4 not detected at all, 2 tagged CITY at 0.43/0.47, below the configured floor). Masking the code alone leaves the pair half redacted: "[REDACTED:ner:ZIPCODE] Ludwigshafen". pii_detection.extend_to_next_word lists entity groups whose accepted detections also cover the word that directly follows them on the same line, with the same action and group. Horizontal whitespace is skipped, a line break ends the search, and nothing is extended when no word follows, so a hit never grows over bare whitespace or onto the next line (or across the segment separator on the multi-message path). The option is opt-in and empty by default; existing detector configs behave exactly as before.

mudler-agentandEttore Di Giacinto	895d50385f	fix(distributed): converge model configs across frontends (#12558) ... * fix(galleryop): announce model changes before the preload After a gallery install or delete, the replica that ran it replaced its config loader, then preloaded every installed model, and only then published the models invalidation. The preload does remote lookups and checksums for each model, so on a large models directory peers learned about the change minutes after the originator listed it. When the preload failed or the operation was cancelled, the event was never sent. Publish the invalidation, and apply the delete lifecycle, as soon as the loader holds the new set. The preload still runs afterwards with its own error handling. Its failure is reported on the operation, but it no longer rolls back a deletion that peers have already applied. Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-opus-5-5 Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * fix(distributed): resync model configs from the models directory Frontends refresh their model configs only when a models invalidation arrives on NATS. NATS keeps no history, so a frontend that is disconnected when the message is published never applies the change. It keeps serving the old config, for example an alias that points at the previous model, until some later change happens to touch it. Each frontend now reruns the peer reconcile against the shared models directory after every NATS reconnect, and every --model-config-resync-interval (default 30s) when a config file changed. The pass names no model, so only models whose file changed get a revision transition, and an unchanged directory costs one read of the config files. The reconcile replaced the whole loader with a parse of the models directory, which dropped models loaded with --config-file and published a deletion revision for them. Configs defined outside the directory are now kept, both there and after a gallery install. Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-opus-5-5 Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * fix(nodes): stop stale frontends from retargeting alias rules A scheduling rule keyed by an alias derives its target from the alias mapping of the frontend that reads it. Every frontend keeps its own copy of the model configs, so after an alias is repointed a frontend that has not reloaded it still resolves the old target. Two frontends then rewrote the rule's stored target_model against each other on alternate reconciler ticks, and the outdated one scaled up the model the alias used to point at. The registry already records the accepted config revision of each model. A frontend now derives a rule's target from its own alias mapping only when its config revision for the rule's name matches that record. Otherwise it keeps the stored target_model: it neither writes the column nor reconciles replicas of the old target. The check reads the database only for a rule whose stored and derived targets differ. With no accepted revision on record, the old behaviour stays.

A collection created through one frontend was unknown to the others until they restarted, and each frontend listed a different set. Wrap the in-process collections backend in distributed mode so that the database is the source of truth: - lists come from the registry, - a lookup miss checks the registry before it returns 404, and opens a collection that exists there (once per name, even under concurrency), - a cached collection that left the registry is dropped and closed, with a re-check at most every 5 seconds, - create and reset publish an event on the existing collection invalidation subject, so other frontends re-check at once.

mudler-agentandEttore Di Giacinto	e4fa051ee3	refactor(distributed): put the NATS-only paths behind interfaces (#12395) ... * feat(messaging): add shared subject rules Assisted-by: Claude:claude-sonnet-5-5 Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * test(messaging): cover BroadcastRoots, ControlRoots and SubjectRoot Assisted-by: Claude:claude-sonnet-5-5 Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * feat(messaging): add Broadcaster and enforce subject rules in every carrier Broadcaster is the fan-out half of MessagingClient. The NATS client and the in-memory FakeBus now refuse a subject outside the served roots and any wildcard other than a whole single token, and FakeBus shares MatchSubject instead of its own copy. FakeBus Unsubscribe now removes its own subscription instead of the first one with the same subject. A shared conformance suite in messagingtest runs against both carriers. The distributed e2e specs that used invented test.* subjects, and the one that subscribed with a > filter, now use subjects from subjects.go. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-sonnet-5-5 Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * refactor: depend on Broadcaster where only publish and subscribe are used Narrowed to messaging.Broadcaster: nodes/staging_progress.go, nodes/install_progress_publisher.go, galleryop/operation.go, galleryop/service.go, agentpool/user_services.go, agentpool/agent_jobs.go, openresponses/store.go, openresponses/sync.go, syncstate/syncstate.go, finetune/service.go, quantization/service.go and failover/distsync/distsync.go. SubscribeJSON now takes a Broadcaster because it only calls Subscribe, which lets the narrowed consumers use it. Stayed wide: worker/supervisor.go, because its client field also serves the SubscribeReply handlers in worker/lifecycle.go. The request/reply, queue and wiring files (nodes/unloader.go, nodes/file_stager_s3.go, jobs/dispatcher.go, agents/dispatcher.go, agents/events.go, worker/file_staging.go, cli/agent_worker.go, http/app.go) are unchanged by design. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-sonnet-5-5 Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * refactor(nodes): name the no-route condition and confine the carrier error Consumers matched nats.ErrNoResponders, which names an absence, to demote a node. They now match ErrNoRoute, the control path maps the carrier's failure onto it, and timeouts and worker refusals are pinned as not being no-route. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-sonnet-5-5 Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * docs(nodes): state which FileStager implementations return ErrNoRoute Assisted-by: Claude:claude-sonnet-5-5 Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * refactor(nodes): build backend clients through one node-aware seam Assisted-by: Claude:claude-sonnet-5-5 Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * docs: describe the distributed transport seams Assisted-by: Claude:claude-sonnet-5-5 Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * docs: correct comments that overclaim after the seams refactor Assisted-by: Claude:claude-sonnet-5-5 Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * fix(agent-worker): refuse an unserved LOCALAI_AGENT_SUBJECT at startup The messaging client now refuses a subject whose root no carrier serves. An agent worker started with a custom LOCALAI_AGENT_SUBJECT such as tenant-a.agent.execute used to start and then wait on a subject the frontend never publishes to. After the subject rules landed it exited at subscribe time with an error that did not name the setting. Behaviour change: the worker now checks LOCALAI_AGENT_SUBJECT before it registers or connects, and exits with an error that names the variable and says to use a served subject under the agent root, for example agent.execute. The served roots are not widened: a custom root was never delivered by the frontend, and a wider set would reopen the drift the subject rules exist to close. The flag help and the agent worker docs state the constraint. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-sonnet-5-5 Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * test(nodes): pin the reactions to ErrNoRoute Three callers react to ErrNoRoute and had no spec: the reconciler's upgrade drain falls back to the legacy forced install, the reconciler marks the node unhealthy when a pending op has no route, and the backend-op fan-out marks the node unhealthy. Each spec drives the real caller with a scripted no-responders reply and reads the result from the registry or the recorded requests. A fourth spec pins the other side: a pending op that times out leaves the node healthy and only counts the attempt, so mapping timeouts onto ErrNoRoute would fail here. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-sonnet-5-5 Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * test(messaging): pin client subject checks and fail the carrier suite in CI Add specs that call Publish, Request, Subscribe, QueueSubscribe, SubscribeReply and QueueSubscribeReply on a client with no connection. Each call must return ErrUnservedSubject for bogus.thing and ErrUnsupportedWildcard for jobs.>. This proves that the subject check runs before the connection is used, and needs no server. The NATS conformance suite is the only check that runs the subject rules against a real carrier. Before this change it skipped without output when Docker was missing. Now it fails when CI is set, so a Linux runner without Docker cannot hide it. It still skips on local runs and on macOS CI, which has no Docker. Add SubjectNodeBackendInstallProgress to the list of constructors that must build served subjects, and ask contributors to extend the list. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-sonnet-5-5 Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * docs: state what ErrNoRoute may change, and group the distributed guides The seams note said MarkUnhealthy was the only state change allowed on ErrNoRoute. A pending backend op still records the failed attempt, counts toward the reconciler's retry limit and is dead-lettered after the maximum attempts. The note now says that MarkUnhealthy is the only change to the node's own state, and that the per-op accounting is not a verdict about the node. The note also documents that the NATS conformance run fails under CI when Docker is missing. The distributed-seams row moves next to the distributed-state row in the topics table. The liveness ping spec header now says no route is a reason to skip the worker, not proof that the worker is gone. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-sonnet-5-5 Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * refactor(nodes): give the backend client factory the node id Mechanical: the method gains a nodeID parameter and the eight test fakes are updated. No behaviour change. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-sonnet-5-5 Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * refactor(nodes): drop the optional node-aware factory The node id is now in the main method, so the optional interface and its helper had no behaviour of their own. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-sonnet-5-5 Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * refactor(nodes): dial backend probes through the client factory Assisted-by: Claude:claude-sonnet-5-5 Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * refactor(nodes): dial workers' file servers through a per-node dialer Assisted-by: Claude:claude-sonnet-5-5 Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * refactor(http): proxy backend logs through the per-node worker dialer The admin backend-logs proxy (list, lines and the WebSocket stream) now reaches a worker through the same per-node dialer as the HTTP file stager, so every frontend-to-worker dial goes through one seam. The shared direct dialer keeps alive for 15s where the proxy used 30s. Harmless for requests bounded at 15s. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-sonnet-5-5 Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * fix(http): keep the backend-logs proxy independent of the admin connection The proxy request had no context before the dialer change and is bounded only by its 15s timeout. Keep it that way. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-sonnet-5-5 Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * refactor: move the worker control payloads to workerctl Mechanical move of the request and reply structs, the install progress event and the file payloads out of messaging. The verbs no longer belong to one carrier. No alias is left behind. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-sonnet-5-5 Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * refactor(worker): serve the lifecycle verbs through a controlServer The worker registers one handler per verb and a NATS server maps each verb to its subject. Registration errors now name the verb. node.stop is served with SubscribeReply, which is identical on the wire because the handler never replies. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-sonnet-5-5 Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * refactor(worker): report install progress through the control sink Install and upgrade now emit download progress through the sink the control server hands them. The debounce and the terminal flush stay in the handler path, built over that sink by the new nodes.NewDebouncedInstallProgressSink, which replaces NewDebouncedInstallProgressPublisher. The subject and payload on the wire are unchanged. The supervisor no longer holds the bus, and installFn and upgradeFn let specs drive both verbs without a gallery. The malformed-request log lines are restored for install, upgrade, backend.delete, model.unload, model.stop and model.delete, with the reply bytes unchanged. The signal adapter is renamed noReply, which also lets worker.go import os/signal without an alias again. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-sonnet-5-5 Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * refactor(worker): serve the file-staging verbs through a controlServer An empty list-dir answer is now {} rather than {"files":null}, because the typed reply omits an empty Files slice. The frontend decodes both to a nil slice in nodes/file_stager_s3.go. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-sonnet-5-5 Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * feat(messaging): add WorkQueue and the NATS producer This is the producer side of the competing-consumer seam. The work kinds map one to one to today's subjects and queue groups: task to jobs.new and mcp-ci to jobs.mcp-ci.new (both in group workers), agent-run to agent.execute (group agent-workers). Enqueue publishes the payload as Publish does today, with one JSON marshal. FakeBus now records queue groups and keeps reply handlers so later specs can pin and drive them. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-sonnet-5-5 Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * feat(messaging): add the NATS WorkConsumer An in-flight limit of one runs the handler inline on the delivery goroutine, as the MCP CI consumer does today. Any other limit spawns per delivery, as the agent consumer does. Queue groups are unchanged. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-sonnet-5-5 Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * refactor: publish queued work through WorkQueue The job dispatcher, the agent pool and the agent scheduler enqueue through messaging.WorkQueue; the NATS implementation publishes to the same subjects as before. DistributedServices builds the queue next to the NATS client and hands it to the dispatcher and the agent pool, whose distributed mode switch now reads a non-nil WorkQueue. The unused AgentPoolService.SetNATSClient is removed. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-sonnet-5-5 Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * refactor: consume queued work through WorkConsumer The agent dispatcher and the MCP CI consumer register through messaging.WorkConsumer. The NATS implementation keeps the inline one-at-a-time model for MCP CI and the per-delivery model for agent runs. handleMCPCIJob reports on the events publisher the carrier hands it instead of a captured client. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-sonnet-5-5 Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * refactor: delete the consumers nothing in production reached jobs.new has a producer and no production consumer, and the agent dispatcher's Dispatch was only called from tests. Publishing jobs.new is unchanged. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-sonnet-5-5 Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * refactor(mcp): send MCP requests to agent workers through AgentControl Timeouts still honour only the deadline, not cancellation, exactly as today. The NATS no-responders error maps to ErrNoRoute and a timeout does not. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-sonnet-5-5 Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * refactor(agent-worker): serve MCP requests and backend.stop through agentRPCServer The agent worker's MCP tool and discovery reply subscriptions and its backend stop listener move behind an unexported agentRPCServer interface, served on NATS by nodes.NATSAgentRPCServer. The handlers become typed mcp.ToolHandler and mcp.DiscoveryHandler values that answer every failure with a reply carrying Error. Queue group (agent-workers), inline execution on the delivery goroutine, the background handler context, the unmarshal error reply texts and the reply-less backend stop subscription are unchanged. The backend stop handler takes the decoded backend name, so it can still close that backend's MCP sessions. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-sonnet-5-5 Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * refactor(messaging): remove helpers that only tests used BroadcastRoots, ControlRoots and SubjectRoot had no production caller. The roots spec now asserts every served root through ValidateSubject instead. MatchSubject moves back into the test support package, the only place that used it, with its table. NATSAgentRPCServer drops the subscription list it stored and never read, and NewNATSAgentRPCServer gets a doc comment. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-sonnet-5-5 Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * test(mcp): round trip the agent RPC server over a real NATS server One spec sends a tool request and a discovery request through NATSAgentControl to NATSAgentRPCServer and checks that the handlers see the decoded requests and the replies come back. It also puts an undecodable body on the tool subject and checks the server answers with an unmarshal error instead of leaving the requester to time out. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-sonnet-5-5 Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * docs: describe the distributed transport seams The developer note now lists the final seams: fan-out, queues, both halves of the control verbs and of agent RPC, and the dial. It records the open items a second carrier has to handle. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-sonnet-5-5 Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * test: pin the in-flight limit each queue consumer asks for The work queue specs pin what Consume does for a given limit, but nothing pinned which limit each production consumer passes. Changing the agent worker's MCP CI limit from 1 to 0 would have let MCP CI jobs run concurrently on each worker with every test green. Move the MCP CI Consume call into startMCPCIConsumer with the same wiring and pin that it asks for (WorkMCPCI, 1). Pin that NATSDispatcher.Start asks for (WorkAgentRun, maxConcurrent) for several limits. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-sonnet-5-5 Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * refactor: remove helpers the branch left without a caller SubjectJobCancelWildcard lost its last subscriber when the frontend stopped listening on jobs.*.cancel; the NATS permissions and conformance suite spell the subject out, so nothing reads the constant. decodeBackendStopRequest returned a stopAll flag that production dropped and only a test read. decodeBackendStop is now the single decoder with the same semantics: an empty body is stop-all, an empty Backend is stop-all, malformed JSON is an error. stopBackends still derives stop-all from Backend, so no reply changes. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-sonnet-5-5 Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * fix(messaging): keep an explicitly empty agent queue a plain subscription Before the work queue seam the agent worker passed LOCALAI_AGENT_QUEUE straight to QueueSubscribe, so an explicitly empty value made a plain subscription and every agent worker ran every agent run. WithAgentRunRoute replaced an empty queue with agent-workers, which silently changed that. Keep the queue as given once the option is applied. An empty subject still falls back to agent.execute, since it never had a meaning of its own. The flag default stays agent-workers, so only an explicitly empty value reaches this. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-sonnet-5-5 Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * docs: correct comments and record the PR B notes Fix the recordingFactory comment (it also records the parallel flag), document that a negative maxInFlight is unbounded and that Unsubscribe from a handler deadlocks, and say a permanently undecodable payload returns nil. Record controlHandler's undecodable return as a kept exception, and add the second carrier notes to the developer note: the reconciler has no ClientFactory option, the logs proxy honours HTTP_PROXY, verbs one carrier serves need an opt-out, terminal replies come from the result event, and agent runs publish through the NATS-bound EventBridge, which is not an additive change.

The router staged only the configured path, so the worker received shard 1 and the load failed with "failed to load GGUF split". The router now stages the remaining shards next to the first one. A missing shard fails the load and names the file. The file count for progress and the payload size also include all shards. The payload size feeds the load deadline and the disk-headroom check. For a 111 GB model whose first shard is 10 MB, both were sized for less than 1 GB. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-opus-5-5 [Claude Code] Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * fix(distributed): stage the files a model install declares Replace the split GGUF file name matching with the model's own file list. A gallery install or an import records every file of the model in ._gallery_<name>.yaml (files:), and a config can list more under download_files:. The router now stages all of these files, not only the files that the config's path fields name. This includes the other shards of a split GGUF, which llama.cpp opens by name. The application gives the router a resolver that reads the two lists. The resolver looks up the files by model name when it stages them, so a replica that the reconciler loads from saved load options gets the same files. backend.proto does not change. A declared file that is missing on the frontend is skipped with a warning. The load deadline and the disk headroom check include the declared files.

Ettore Di Giacinto	e59fb854ee	fix(failover): free the leader lock soon after the leader's host dies ... A leader whose host died without closing its connection kept the advisory lock for about two hours of OS keepalive defaults, and no other frontend could probe.

Ettore Di Giacinto	5d2b90b848	fix(failover): never load a warm target inside a probe ... A warm target's liveness probe called ModelLoader.Load, which blocked until the model finished loading (while the warm preload loaded it too). Tick waited for every probe, so all probing froze, and the probe then ran HealthCheck on an expired context and tripped the target at every startup. The prober now takes a function that returns the running backend without loading it. A target that is not loaded passes liveness; its recovery is neither confirmed nor failed and it returns to healthy after min_dwell, like a cold target. Tick no longer waits for probes: each probe applies its own result and a target whose probe is running is skipped.

mudler-agentandEttore Di Giacinto	543fb4bd24	fix(gallery): verification follow-ups for oci:// galleries (#12243) ... * fix(gallery): verification follow-ups for oci:// galleries Follow-ups from the post-merge review of #12238 and #12239. Only a policy decision is a refusal now. cosignverify wraps ErrPolicyRejected around a failed signature check, an identity or source-repository mismatch, a not_before cutoff and a missing or unparseable bundle. A TUF, registry or network failure during verification, or a timeout, is an outage: the gallery falls back to the copy verified under the current policy, as it does when the registry is down. An oci:// gallery with a verification block, or any oci:// gallery under strict integrity, is no longer answered by an https://, github: or file:// mirror. Such a mirror is ignored with a warning, because nothing can check its signature. The index of an HTTP gallery, whose policy only covers its backend images, is cached under the URL-only name again, so no unchecked body is stored under a policy-keyed name. The in-memory index cache key now includes the policy. After a runtime policy change the index is fetched again, and entries with a relative url install again. The registry digest lookups after install and upgrade, and in the upgrade check, run only for real registry references (new URI.LooksLikeRegistryOCI), not for ollama:// or ocifile://. The refusal message names strict integrity when that is the cause, and the gallery name is no longer repeated. Specs pin the URL-only cache name for galleries without a policy, a fixed key for a fixed policy, and that every GalleryVerification field changes the key. The docs describe refusal, outage, mirrors and strict integrity.

The React UI lists from AvailableGalleryModelsCached, which is keyed by nothing. A gallery change through the settings API or a runtime_settings.json edit now drops that listing when the model or backend gallery configuration differs. Before, the UI kept the old list, with local paths into the old policy's tree, until the next background refresh, or for good when the new policy refused the gallery. In cosignverify, a referrer the registry fails to serve now makes the lookup an outage whatever other referrers failed and in any order, since the unread one may be the valid signature. An invalid policy (Validate in NewVerifier, an unparseable not_before) is ErrPolicyRejected, because no fetch can make it usable. The docs say that only an oci:// gallery with a verification block skips non-OCI mirrors, and list an unusable policy as a refusal.

Adira Denis Muhando	869000ceb7	fix(distributed): exclude pinned models from cluster eviction and idle scale-down ... pinned: true was only honoured by the per-node watchdog. Every distributed eviction path was pinned-blind: the router's LRU eviction (EvictLRU, evictLRUAndFreeNode) and the replica reconciler's idle scale-down would happily unload a pinned model — and since eviction is gated on in_flight = 0, a pinned model became eviction-eligible the instant each response completed. Under capacity pressure that surfaces as the backend being freed immediately after every request (#11101). Wire the model config loader into the router and reconciler through a new PinnedModelResolver seam (mirroring ConcurrencyConflictResolver): - EvictLRU passes the pinned set into FindLRUModel's query so the next-oldest unpinned model is selected instead of the attempt failing - evictLRUAndFreeNode filters pinned models inside its locked selection - scaleDownIdle skips pinned models entirely: trimming to the floor still means requests beyond the survivor's capacity pay a cold reload Deliberate teardown (admin unload, model delete, node drain) intentionally still applies to pinned models, as does dead-row reaping (state correction, not eviction).

localai-org-maint-botandEttore Di Giacinto	9afe10ba21	fix(distributed): survive a slow control-plane database (#11837) ... * fix(distributed): evict only when a node is known to be full scheduleNewModel asked the registry for a free replica slot and treated every error as "this node is full", so a control-plane database slow enough to time out the lookup evicted a healthy loaded model. The evicted process died, a peer frontend still holding its address dialled the dead port and retried, and the model thrashed between nodes. The comment on the branch already said it meant a full node; the code never tested for it. Evict only on ErrNoFreeSlot. Any other error now returns and names the lookup that failed, so a slow database degrades into a diagnosable load failure instead of into lost work. An audit of the rest of the router found one branch of the same shape: node selection discarded the error from its last-resort finder, so a database timeout there also produced a nil node and evicted for it. That path now returns unless the finder said gorm.ErrRecordNotFound, which is the only answer that means the cluster had no node to give. No other destructive branch in router.go fires on a generic error. Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * fix(distributed): checkpoint heartbeat writes instead of writing every beat Every heartbeat UPDATEd backend_nodes. Six nodes at a ten second beat is roughly 52,000 writes a day against a six-row table, and that churn is what turned a blocked autovacuum into a 460 MB table whose six-row scan cost 867 ms and timed out the queries that place models. A beat carrying only a fresher timestamp now waits for the checkpoint interval. Each reported field is compared against the value last persisted rather than tested for presence, because a worker sends its disk figures on every beat and presence alone would suppress nothing. A node's first beat, a changed total VRAM, total disk or GPU vendor, and a free VRAM, RAM or disk reading that has moved more than 256 MiB from the persisted value all still write at once. A node that is not active is never suppressed, because it recovers only when the health monitor sees a fresh timestamp. The persisted column is up to one interval stale by design, so the stale-node threshold moves from 60s to 5m to cover it. Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * fix(distributed): fail worker readiness when a held backend is unreachable The readiness gate tracked only the NATS link, so a worker whose backend processes had died still answered /readyz with 200 and kept receiving loads. One node did exactly that during an incident: it reported healthy while its backend port refused connections, and every load routed to it failed. Readiness is now the NATS link and, for each backend process the worker believes it is running, a short dial of its recorded address. A worker holding no backends stays ready, because idle is a healthy state. Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * fix(distributed): keep a starting backend out of the readiness dial set A backend process is inserted into the supervisor map with its gRPC address already recorded, but the address refuses connections until the gRPC server binds, which the startup poll allows up to 30 seconds for and which takes 10 to 15 seconds on a slow node. The new data-path readiness probe dialled that address straight away, so a worker answered /readyz with 503 for the whole of every cold backend start. The container HEALTHCHECK absorbs that, but a Kubernetes readinessProbe at 10s does not, and the worker would leave rotation each time it loaded a model. The skip for a stopping process had no counterpart at the other end of the lifecycle. Backend processes now carry a serving flag, set where the startup health-check gate succeeds, and the probe dials only processes that are serving and not yet stopping. backendStartStillValid becomes markBackendServing: the check and the mark must share one lock hold, so the flag can only ever land on the entry the key currently owns. Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * feat(distributed): export control-plane database health gauges Four transactions wedged on a corrupt index held the vacuum horizon open for 42 days. Nothing measured it, so the first symptom anyone saw was models failing to load six weeks later, by which time a six-row table had grown to 460 MB. Export the oldest xmin age, the longest open transaction, and the dead tuple ratio on the registry tables. The first is the number that would have caught it: it sits near zero in health and was 21,002,291. Sampling is scrape-driven behind a cache, and a failed sample reports the last good values rather than failing the scrape, because these gauges matter most when the database is already struggling. Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * fix(distributed): rate-limit failed control-plane database samples The cache advanced its clock only on a successful sample, so once the database started failing every scrape retried the query immediately. That turned the cache off in the one regime it exists for: a retry storm at scrape cadence aimed at a database already in trouble. A catalog read that consistently exceeds the 5 second timeout also paid that cost on every scrape, with all scrapes serialised behind the sampler mutex. Time every attempt rather than every success, so failures and timeouts cost the same interval as good samples. Whether a good sample exists moves to its own field, keeping the gauges absent until the first success and holding the last good values through later failures. Also note in the runbook that pg_stat_activity cannot see prepared transactions or replication slot xmins, so a healthy-looking xmin age does not by itself rule out a blocked horizon. Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * test(distributed): pin that a failing database evicts nothing Exercises the real distributed stack against a control-plane database that refuses the router's slot lookup, and asserts the scheduler reports the lookup it could not answer instead of falling through to eviction. The failure is injected with privileges rather than a statement timeout. A timeout set with ALTER DATABASE also breaks AutoMigrate, and it leaks into every later spec in the suite unless it is reset, so the spec would end up testing the migration rather than the scheduler. Instead the spec creates a dedicated login role, points a second gorm handle at it, and revokes that role's SELECT on node_models.replica_index. This has to be a separate role: the test container's owner is a PostgreSQL superuser, and superusers bypass every privilege check, so revoking from CURRENT_USER is recorded and then ignored. The revoke is scoped to one column on purpose. Revoking the whole table would also blind node selection, which runs first and has a guard of its own, so the scheduler would never reach the slot lookup this spec is about. Leaving every other column readable lets selection succeed and lands the refusal exactly on NextFreeReplicaIndex, which plucks replica_index. The grant is restored from BeforeEach via DeferCleanup, so a failing assertion or a panic cannot hand the next spec a role that cannot read. Reverting the eviction guard fails this spec, which is the point of it: the router then reports "no replica slot on keeper and eviction failed" for an error that was never evidence the node was full. The surviving-row assertions are secondary under this injection, because the eviction path reads whole node_models rows and the same revoke blinds it too; a comment in the spec says so, so nobody mistakes them for the load-bearing ones. Also documents why the vector store and the control plane must not share a database: the removable-tuple cutoff is per database, not per table, so one transaction left open anywhere stops autovacuum reclaiming the node registry, and a six-row table bloats into hundreds of megabytes. The note names LOCALAI_AUTH_DATABASE_URL and LOCALAI_AGENT_POOL_DATABASE_URL as the two knobs that must differ, and the localai_control_plane_oldest_xmin_age gauge as the way to see it coming. grep for StaleNodeThreshold and HealthCheckInterval in core/config/runtime_settings_registry.go returns no matches: the distributed duration knobs are not exposed as runtime settings, so the new heartbeat checkpoint interval follows them and needs no registry entry. Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * fix(distributed): close the review gaps in the heartbeat and health path The stale-node threshold moved from 60 seconds to 5 minutes in this branch because checkpointing makes last_heartbeat up to one checkpoint interval behind by design. Two things were left inconsistent with that. NewHealthMonitor still fell back to a hardcoded 60 seconds when handed a zero threshold, so any future caller that stopped passing the configured value would mark every healthy, beating node offline on every cycle. And the threshold itself had a flag-name constant but no AppOption, no CLI field and no env binding, so an operator who widened --node-heartbeat-checkpoint had no way to widen the threshold to match. The fallback now tracks config.DefaultStaleNodeThreshold, and --stale-node-threshold / LOCALAI_STALE_NODE_THRESHOLD is wired the same way its sibling is. Heartbeat suppression compared the RAW reported free VRAM against the snapshot, but the column persists capAvailable(raw, ceiling). On any node with a VRAM budget set, whose actual free VRAM oscillates above that ceiling, every beat looked material while the persisted value never moved: suppression was defeated on exactly the nodes an operator had configured, and the write amplification this branch exists to remove came straight back there. The comparison and the snapshot now both hold the capped figure, so they measure the same quantity as the column. Fixing that needs the ceiling, and reading it cost a SELECT on every beat, including suppressed ones. The skip decision therefore moved ahead of the updates map and now reuses the ceiling cached on the last durable write, while the write path still re-reads it before capping anything. A ceiling that changed inside the checkpoint window can cost one extra or one late write; it cannot persist a wrong figure. A suppressed beat now costs no query at all. Also: the operations section now says to grant pg_read_all_stats to the LocalAI role, because PostgreSQL blanks backend_xmin and xact_start for sessions owned by other roles, and the transaction that wedged the horizon in the incident was a co-located vector store connecting as a different role, so without the grant the new gauge sees only our own sessions. The compose healthcheck comment now describes readiness covering the backend data path, and the control-plane gauge registration records the otel.SetMeterProvider ordering it depends on. Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * fix(distributed): resolve the gauge's table names through gorm The dead-tuple gauge queried pg_stat_user_tables against a hardcoded list of three table names. Those three do not agree on where their name comes from: BackendNode and NodeModel take gorm's default pluralisation, while GalleryOperationRecord overrides TableName, and gallery_operations already had a constant of its own that the list duplicated. A literal list keeps compiling after any of that moves, and the query then matches nothing. The failure is silent and it points the wrong way: a dead-tuple ratio that matched no rows reports the same numbers as a cluster with no bloat, so the gauge would look healthiest exactly when it had stopped working. Ask gorm what each model is stored as instead, which follows a TableName override and the default pluralisation alike. A spec pins that the override really is consulted: naive pluralisation of the type would give gallery_operation_records, so the resolution cannot quietly stop asking the model.

mudler's LocalAI [bot]andEttore Di Giacinto	80e3240f2d	feat(distributed): key scheduling rules by a model alias (#11771) ... Node placement and replica rules could only name a model, so an operator who pinned "llama3" to the GPU tier had to rewrite the rule whenever a different model took over that job. An alias already gives a stable name for whichever model serves it, and a rule on that name makes it a deployment slot: repoint the alias and the placement follows. A rule keeps the name the operator chose. Reads resolve that name through the config loader to the model the rule governs, so the reconciler counts, schedules and trims replicas of the target, and the router finds an alias-keyed rule from the target it is already routing. An alias that resolves to nothing governs nothing loadable, so the reconciler skips it and the write paths refuse it. A replica is shared by every name that resolves to it, so only one rule can decide where it runs. The REST and MCP write paths reject a rule whose target another rule already governs. A pair that arrives some other way, such as a seed file or an alias repointed onto a model that already has a rule, resolves in favour of the rule named after the model itself and then the oldest, and the rest are listed as shadowed. The eviction guard is the exception: it matches rules to replicas in raw SQL inside a locking transaction and cannot resolve an alias. It reads a stored target that the reconciler refreshes each tick, and falls back to the rule's own name when that target is empty.

Ettore Di Giacinto	505a6d040b	fix(distributed): publish the revision a request actually carries ... Two code paths computed a model's revision. Inference resolves the config through the loader, which applies SetDefaults a second time. Everything that publishes a revision hashed the stored config instead, with SetDefaults applied once. SetDefaults is not idempotent for every model: it re-runs the GGUF guess and the hardware defaults, both of which read state the stored config does not carry. Where the two disagree, a publisher wrote a revision no request would ever carry, and the model became unroutable the moment it was published. On this cluster the startup resync republished one such value and every request for that model was then rejected against it. The publishers now resolve the revision through the loader, exactly as a request does, so there is one definition rather than two that agree only when SetDefaults happens to be idempotent. This covers the startup resync, a saved config edit, and enabling or disabling a model.

The resync added in 3953448f6 ran before LoadModelConfigsFromPath, so it read an empty loader, reconciled nothing and reported success. The symptom was a stored revision that stayed stale across restarts while the log showed no complaint, which is exactly what the resync was meant to prevent.

Ettore Di Giacinto	3953448f60	fix(distributed): resync stored config revisions at startup ... The controller pins a model's replicas to a stored revision and rejects any request carrying a different one. Nothing ever re-derived that value from the configuration on disk: it moved only on an edit, a gallery install, or a peer's change broadcast. An inference request may only establish a revision, never replace one. So any other way for the two to diverge left the model permanently unroutable. A configuration edited while a frontend was down lands there, and so does a change in what the revision is computed over: an upgrade that alters the hashed form leaves every stored revision describing a configuration that no longer exists. The only recovery was deleting the row by hand, which is not something a cluster should need. Each frontend now reconciles the stored revisions against the loaded configurations at startup and republishes the ones that disagree. Only those: republishing quarantines every replica loaded under the old revision, so doing it for a model that did not drift would unload a healthy replica for nothing. A model with no stored revision has never been served and is left for its first request to establish.

Richard Palethorpe	d10374f849	feat(router): make KNN a first-class classifier with a persisted, curated corpus (#10652) ... * feat(router): make KNN a first-class classifier with a persisted, curated corpus Add `classifier: knn` — similarity-weighted voting over labelled example prompts. Unlike score/colbert it needs no classifier model: label knowledge lives in a corpus seeded and curated through the admin API, so routing decisions are deterministic, auditable, and grounded in graded experience rather than a model's opinion. Epistemic gate: corpus entries below knn.similarity_threshold cannot vote; when none clears it the classifier activates no labels and the router uses the fallback — a prompt unlike all labelled experience is treated as undecidable, not guessed. Decisions record nearest_similarity (also on fallback rows) so admins can see how far the nearest labelled experience was; the Routing tab explains out-of-corpus fallbacks and shows per-label corpus counts. Persistence: one JSONL file per router under <data path>/router-corpus (text, labels, vector, embedder fingerprint). The file is the source of truth; the local-store index is rebuilt from it at classifier build time and stays a pure in-memory index. Entries recorded under a different embedding model re-embed on load. Also corrects the docs' false claim that local-store collections persist — the embedding cache never survived restarts (and still doesn't); the corpus does. Corpus input is API-only by design (entries may contain example user content): POST /api/router/{name}/corpus seeds (labels validated against declared policies, embedded server-side, indexed immediately), GET .../corpus/stats inspects — label counts only, entry texts are never returned by any surface — DELETE .../corpus wipes. Admin-gated like the sibling router endpoints, and exposed as MCP tools (seed_router_corpus / get_router_corpus_stats / clear_router_corpus) in both the httpapi and inproc clients with coverage-test route mappings. Plumbing: VectorStore gains SearchK (top-K was hardcoded to 1); local-store gets InsertBatch/Delete as optional fast paths; RouterConfig gains a knn block (embedding_model, k, similarity_threshold, vote_threshold, store_name) with meta-registry fields; the classifier dropdown now offers knn and the previously-missing colbert; embedding_cache is ignored (with a warning) for knn — it IS an embedding-KNN lookup; the stale /api/instructions intelligent-routing entry is rewritten (it described a classifier that no longer exists); swagger regenerated. Tests: KNN vote/gate specs with hand-computed vote shares, corpus manager suite (restart reload without re-embedding, fingerprint re-embed, dedupe, hostile store names), middleware specs (corpus routing, gate fallback, config validation, cache-wrap refusal), corpus endpoint specs pinning the texts-never-returned contract, MCP catalog + route-mapping gates, and a Playwright spec for corpus stats and the out-of-corpus decision detail.

The id is the entry's content hash (first 8 bytes of the SHA-256 of its text, hex): stable across reseeds and re-embeds, and text-free, so an external platform that seeded the corpus can recompute text->id on its own copy and bucket decisions by corpus region (per- region reliability accounting) without corpus text ever leaving the server.

Reuse/altitude: - RouterKNNConfig.ResolvedStoreName is now the single source of the router-corpus-<name> default (was hand-derived in four files). - corpus.ResolveKNNRouter + corpus.Seed carry the shared model resolution and seed validation; the REST endpoints and the assistant MCP client are thin transport adapters over them, with sentinel errors mapped to HTTP statuses at the echo boundary. - middleware.NewClassifierDeps assembles the classifier dependency set once for all five entry points (OpenAI, Anthropic, realtime, decide, corpus) instead of five hand-copied literals. - router.AllClassifiers feeds both the status endpoint and the unknown-classifier error, ending the classifier-list drift. - Per-classifier requirements moved out of validateRouterPolicies into their buildClassifier arms; the knn arm owns its embedding_cache opt-out instead of a name-check in the shared wrap tail. - adminOnly replaces four inline copies of the admin gate in the middleware routes. - localVectorStore.Search delegates to SearchK (identical traces). Efficiency: - Manager.Add embeds outside the manager mutex and appends to the JSONL file (O(new) instead of O(corpus) rewrite); a torn tail from a crash mid-append is tolerated on read and repaired on next write. - Stats memoises per store keyed on the file's stat fingerprint and no longer takes the manager mutex, so the 5s status poll stops parsing vector-laden JSONL and stops blocking behind seeds. - KNN Classify decodes each neighbour payload once (was twice) and builds refs and votes in a single pass with one fallback return. - Corpus file writes fsync before rename/close. - The corpus manager is built eagerly in newApplication (sync.Once dropped); test helper dead branch removed.

3 people	88edd7fc7f	fix(distributed): run cold model loads as durable jobs instead of holding the advisory lock (#11514) ... * fix(advisorylock): set statement_timeout alongside lock_timeout WithLockCtx already overrides a deployment-wide lock_timeout on its dedicated connection so a blocking pg_advisory_lock() waits its turn instead of failing with 55P03. statement_timeout aborts that exact same statement independently, with SQLSTATE 57014, and was not overridden. Production roles commonly carry statement_timeout=60s. Any guarded section longer than that (a cold model load stages for tens of minutes) therefore killed every concurrent waiter: advisorylock: acquiring lock 9003261067483446873: ERROR: canceling statement due to statement timeout (SQLSTATE 57014) Derive it from the same context budget as lock_timeout, with a matching RESET so the pooled connection is returned clean. Assisted-by: Claude Opus 5 [claude-code] * feat(distributed): add ModelLoadJob, the durable cold-load record A cold load in distributed mode is a long-running background job, but it was modelled as a synchronous side effect of an inference request: the whole of it (backend install, multi-GB staging, checkpoint load) ran inside the per-model advisory lock. Loading a 35.7 GB GGUF held that lock for ~20 minutes, so every concurrent request for the same model blocked on pg_advisory_lock and died at the role's 60s statement_timeout. Introduce the row that lets the lock shrink to a decision. Exactly one ModelLoadJob may be active per tracking key; that uniqueness — not the lifetime of a lock — is what de-duplicates concurrent loaders across replicas. ClaimLoadJob does its read-then-write under the advisory lock and nothing else: no network, file or gRPC I/O inside the guarded section, so a claim costs milliseconds no matter how long the resulting load takes. LastProgress is a heartbeat rather than a byte counter. A checkpoint load legitimately moves zero bytes for many minutes, so a reaper keyed on byte movement would reclaim a healthy job mid-load; byte progress stays the concern of load_deadline.go. A job whose heartbeat stops for longer than the orphan window is reclaimable, so a replica killed mid-load cannot wedge a model permanently. Failed jobs keep their row for a short grace so an immediately-following request reports the real cause instead of silently starting a fresh load of a model that just failed. No caller yet — the router moves onto this in the next commit. Assisted-by: Claude Opus 5 [claude-code] * refactor(distributed): run cold loads as jobs, outside the advisory lock Route wrapped the entire cold load — node selection, backend install, multi-GB staging and the remote LoadModel — in the per-model advisory lock. The lock's job is to de-duplicate concurrent loaders, a decision that takes milliseconds; holding it for the tens of minutes the resulting work takes is what turned a dedup mechanism into a cluster-wide outage for that model. Split it into a claim and a run. The claim is the only thing left inside the lock. The run is a background job owned by the claiming replica and bounded by the same progress-extended deadline as before; every other request for that model — local or on another replica — attaches as a waiter and is served the moment the model is ready, with no duplicate load and no lock contention. Waiters share one broadcast rather than an ordered queue: they all want the identical outcome, so ordering them would add fairness machinery that changes no result. The local channel wakes same-replica waiters instantly and a 2s DB poll is the authority, because a waiter on another replica has no channel to close. On wake a waiter re-runs the warm path rather than trusting the signal — the model may have been evicted in between. A waiter whose client disconnects returns immediately and the job keeps running; it belongs to the job record, not to the request. A failure is recorded on the row so every waiter reports the real cause, and the row survives briefly so the next request does not read "no job" as "not loading" and start a duplicate load of a model that just failed. The runner heartbeats the row on a fixed interval whether or not bytes are moving, which is what keeps a legitimately silent checkpoint load from being reclaimed as an orphan. Phase (installing/staging/loading) and placement ride to the heartbeat on the context, the same seam load_deadline.go already uses, so single-host paths are untouched. Non-distributed mode (no DB) keeps the inline load exactly as it was. Assisted-by: Claude Opus 5 [claude-code] * feat(distributed): bound the wait for a loading model and answer with progress A request whose model is cold-loading now attaches to the running job and is served the moment the model is ready. That wait has to be bounded: a held HTTP request cannot survive real infrastructure, and an ingress or LB idle timeout kills a twenty-minute request regardless of what LocalAI does. New LOCALAI_MODEL_LOAD_WAIT (default 60s) bounds the CALLER, never the load — the job keeps running either way. On expiry the request gets 503 with Retry-After and a structured body naming the model, the node, the phase, byte progress and an ETA. The `error` envelope keeps OpenAI clients working; `loading` is additive so they ignore it. The ETA comes from the job's own observed rate and is omitted rather than guessed until enough bytes have moved for that rate to mean anything: a confidently wrong ETA on a twenty-minute wait is worse than none. Retry-After is that ETA when known, clamped to [5s, 300s], and the wait budget otherwise. LOCALAI_MODEL_LOAD_WAIT=0 waits unbounded, for deployments with no proxy in front. Zero in the config struct still means "unset, use the default", so the CLI records the operator's zero as ModelLoadWaitUnbounded rather than losing the distinction. The distributed branch of ModelLoader.loadModel wrapped the router's error with %s, which flattened it to a string. Use %w: the typed error is what the HTTP layer keys the 503 off. Assisted-by: Claude Opus 5 [claude-code] * feat(api): add GET /api/models/{id}/load-status A client that receives 503 while a model stages onto a worker needs somewhere to poll. This returns the same `loading` object the 503 carries — phase, node, byte progress and ETA — or 404 when no load is running. Read-only and observability-shaped, so it is deliberately neither admin-gated nor feature-gated: it explains a 503 the caller just received, and hiding that behind a per-modality feature would make the explanation for a failed image request depend on chat permissions. It also gets no MCP tool, since there is nothing here an admin would manage conversationally. Registered on the surfaces from .agents/api-endpoints-and-auth.md: the swagger block (existing `models` tag, so /api/instructions needs no new area), the endpoint discovery maps in RegisterLocalAIRoutes, regenerated swagger, and the distributed-mode docs page. No FLAG_* usecase is involved, so capabilities.js is unchanged. Assisted-by: Claude Opus 5 [claude-code] * feat(ui): show cold-load progress in Chat and retry when the model is ready A chat request for a model that is still staging onto a worker now gets a 503 carrying live progress instead of an error. Render it: the composer shows the phase (installing / staging / loading), the node, the percent and the ETA, then polls load-status and re-sends the request the moment the model is ready. Reuses the staging progress idiom the page already had rather than inventing a second one — the two sources are folded into one loadProgress, with the load job winning because it is authoritative across frontend replicas and knows the phase, where the staging operation only knows about a byte transfer this replica happens to be performing. Waiting is bounded (three send attempts, ~30 min of polling each), so a load that never finishes still surfaces as an error rather than as a spinner nobody questions. An aborted generation stops the polling too. Assisted-by: Claude Opus 5 [claude-code] * fix(distributed): check warm-path cleanup errors The router moved legacy cleanup calls onto newly linted lines. Report cleanup failures while preserving the fallback to a cold load.

mudler's LocalAI [bot]andEttore Di Giacinto	74b7ea2829	feat(ui): replace the gallery and inventory tables with a rail and a detail pane (#11288) ... * feat(ui): rename the Install Models nav entry to Discover "Install Models" named the action rather than the destination, and it was the only multi-word entry in a rail of one-word ones (Home, Chat, Studio, Talk, Build, Operate). A bare "Models" was the obvious fix but it collides with the installed-models view under Host, which is a different page for a different job. "Discover" keeps the rhythm and says what the page is for. The icon moves from a download arrow to a compass for the same reason: the page is browsed before it is installed from. Translated in all seven locales rather than left to fall back, so a locale switch does not leave the entry in English. Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> Assisted-by: Claude:claude-opus-5 [Claude Code] * feat(ui): replace the gallery table with a rail and a detail pane The eight-column table was not the real problem; the click-to-expand row underneath it was. Variants, files and a VRAM estimate never fitted inside a <tr>, so they were pushed into a drawer that could hold one model at a time, could not be linked to, and had no room to say anything useful. The gallery is now a rail to scan and a pane that answers. The pane has two states and no third: with nothing selected it is the discovery page, and with a model selected it is that model's detail. Selection lives in the URL, so a model is linkable and Back steps out of the detail instead of off the page. The rail groups by capability while browsing and flattens to results the moment a term is typed. That is a rule rather than a toggle: once someone has said what they are looking for, the buckets are between them and the answer, and making the user choose would be handing them our problem. The detail pane plots VRAM against context length with the host's own limit drawn across it. This is new information, not a restyle. A single number invites "so will it run?", and the honest answer is usually "yes, up to a 32k context", which is a shape rather than a number. The estimates were already fetched for every context size, so it costs no new request. Backends that take no context length say so instead of being given a meaningless chart, and a host with no GPU gets no chart at all rather than bars with nothing to compare against. The split-button variant menu goes with the actions column. The pane lists every build with its backend, quantization, size, fit and a details disclosure, each installable, which is what the dropdown was a cramped substitute for. Its tests move onto that list; the three contracts it alone carried (fetch-once caching, the loading state, an unfit build staying installable) are backfilled against the pane. RecommendedModels moves inside the pane, where it has the width to argue for a model instead of listing one, and keeps its own dismissal and collapse. Rail entries carry no description. Two lines is the budget and the second is better spent on whether the thing will run; the stripped-Markdown contract moves to the pane's lede, tooltip included. e2e: 123 passing across models-gallery, navigation, recommended-panel, model-artifact-operation, operations-strip and page-render-smoke. Inline styles in Models.jsx drop from 82 to 41. Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> Assisted-by: Claude:claude-opus-5 [Claude Code] * refactor(ui): extract the split view into shared components Discover shipped its rail, pane and detail header as private functions inside Models.jsx. Backends and Host have the same defect and want the same shape, so leaving them there guarantees three rails that drift. SplitView, EntityRail, DetailHeader and StatGrid now live under components/split/. EntityRail is deliberately data-driven: a surface maps its own entity onto { id, name, icon, meta, stripe, groupId } and keeps its vocabulary to itself, which is what stops the rail learning about models, backends and loaded state all at once. The CSS moves with it. What was .discover__rail is .entity-rail, .discover__ pane is .split-view__pane and so on, because a class named after one page is a lie on the next two. Only what is genuinely Discover's stays behind the old prefix: the shelves, the hero and the VRAM-by-context chart. Two additions the shared rail needs and Discover did not: a state stripe, for surfaces read by condition before they are read by name, and an empty label. Discover passes neither. No behaviour change. e2e 100 passing across models-gallery, navigation and models-recommended-panel. Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> Assisted-by: Claude:claude-opus-5 [Claude Code] * feat(ui): put the backend gallery on the split view Same defect as the model gallery, so the same shape: a seven-column table over a click-to-expand row that was the only place the repository, licence, tags and links could go. The rail groups backends by the use case they serve, sharing Discover's taxonomy on purpose: a backend is the runtime a use case needs, so "vision" ought to mean the same thing one level down. It flattens on a query for the same reason it does on Discover. The zero state is the one real departure. A backend's fitness is not free memory, it is the accelerator and platform it was built for, so the pane leads with what this host is, then what is not installed yet, then whether anything installed has gone stale. The table listed 37 runtimes and left "which of these can even run here" entirely to the reader. Distribution moves into the pane, which is the one thing a row could never carry: which nodes hold a copy and which do not, with the install-on-more control next to it rather than squeezed against a chip. The distributed and target-node action logic is unchanged, including the guard that keeps a hardware-specific build off the fan-out path. The split-button popover loses its per-row anchoring because there are no rows; one pane, one anchor. Selection lives in ?backend=, preserving the ?target= scope rather than clobbering it. e2e: 139 passing across models-gallery, navigation, backends-management, models-recommended-panel, nodes-per-node-backend-actions, page-render-smoke, operations-strip and model-artifact-operation. The backends spec gains six split-view tests; its three description-cell tests move onto the pane lede. Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> Assisted-by: Claude:claude-opus-5 [Claude Code] * feat(ui): put the Host inventory on the split view The last of the three surfaces, and the one that is not a catalog. Both tabs had the same click-to-expand row, so the shell transfers; what does not transfer is the zero state, because there is nothing to discover in your own inventory. With nothing selected the pane reports what is happening: how many models are loaded, what failed, what has an update, and which models are holding VRAM right now. Every number was already on the page. None of them had been assembled into one statement, so "what is going on" was a question the tabs could not answer however long you looked at them. The rail buckets by state rather than capability - Running, Idle, Disabled for models; Update available, Installed for backends - which is the opposite of the galleries and deliberately so: nobody opens Host wondering which of their models does vision. Entries carry a state stripe for the same reason. Load and Stop are promoted out of the kebab, because that is what an operator came for; the rest stays behind the menu rather than diluting it. Adopted, pinned and alias badges follow the model into the pane: they are facts about the thing, not about its state, and the rail line is spent on state. Deliberately NOT done: folding the two tabs into one rail, as the mock had it. It costs five URL parameters, the manage-tab localStorage key and the stat-card shortcuts, all of which are live deep-links today. The tabs stay as the group selector; merging them is a follow-up with its own migration. e2e: full suite 355 passing. New host-split-view spec; alias-template, manage-logs-link, manage-action-menu-position and model-editor-back-nav move off `.table` and the row kebab onto the rail and the pane. Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> Assisted-by: Claude:claude-opus-5 [Claude Code] * polish(ui): accessibility and consistency pass over the three split views Findings from a pass over what the previous four commits actually shipped, rather than what they were supposed to. The rail was not a listbox. ARIA lets a listbox contain options and groups, and nothing else, but each group's collapse control is a button that has to sit inside the scroller with the entries it folds. It is now a labelled group of buttons, which is the honest description; selection is announced with aria-current and the arrow keys are unaffected. Every entry was its own tab stop, so tabbing past a forty-entry rail to reach the pane took forty keystrokes. Roving tabindex makes the rail one stop, and arrowing now moves focus with the selection instead of leaving it behind on an entry Tab can no longer reach. The rail rounds its corners with overflow:hidden, which was clipping the focus ring off the first and last entries entirely. Inset outlines fix it. A 30px row is fine under a mouse and too small under a thumb, so coarse pointers get a 44px target without costing density on a desktop. One slot said three different things: "9 models loaded" on Discover, "12 loaded" on Backends, "3 of 9" on Host. All three lists are a page of a larger set, so all three now say so the same way. Also removed: an emptyLabel prop on EntityRail that nothing passed, its dead CSS rule, and MODELS_COLSPAN and ResourceRowDesc, which died with the tables. e2e: full suite 355 passing. Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> Assisted-by: Claude:claude-opus-5 [Claude Code] * fix(ui): correct three defects only a real gallery exposed Running the branch against a live instance with 1,595 models and 1,017 backends, rather than against mocked fixtures, surfaced three things the e2e suite could not. Grouping did nothing. The rails matched on the use-case keys the filter chips send (`chat`, `tts`, `transcript`), but those are a server-side vocabulary the handler maps onto entries. What entries actually carry is free-form and inconsistent: models come back tagged `llm`, `gguf`, `vision`, `coding`, and backends `LLM`, `text-to-text`, `audio-transcription`. Nothing matched, so every model landed in "Everything else" and the feature was decorative. Grouping now lives in utils/entityGroups.js, shared by both galleries, matching case-insensitively against the vocabulary the API really uses, with the entry's backend as a fallback signal - a backend named `whisper` is a speech backend whatever its tags say. Order is specific before general and that is load-bearing: a vision model is tagged `llm` too, so testing text first would swallow it. The zero state claimed GPU memory on a machine with no GPU. The resources endpoint reports system RAM in the same field when gpu_count is 0, so the hero read "84.4 GB of GPU memory" next to the recommendations panel correctly saying "No GPU detected". The number was never wrong, only its label; it now says system memory unless a GPU is actually present. The page title still said "Install Models" under a nav entry saying Discover. Also: the keyboard test named the model it expected to arrive at, which made it a hostage of the grouping table and broke the moment the buckets were fixed. It now asserts that the selection moves and returns. e2e: full suite 355 passing. Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> Assisted-by: Claude:claude-opus-5 [Claude Code] * fix(ui): the filters and the rail were fighting over the same job Four things you find odd on Discover, and they turn out to be one mistake seen from four sides. The rail grouped the current page. The listing is paginated at nine rows, so those bucket headers described nine entries out of 1,595, and turning a page reshuffled the sections under the reader. The structure was never stable because it was computed over the wrong set. The chips were redundant for the same reason, seen from the other side. They send tag= and filter all 1,595 server-side. The rail grouped nine of them client-side by the same axis. Two controls for one job, and the weaker one was the one this branch added, so it goes. Grouping stays only on Host, where the list is complete, local, and bucketed by state rather than capability. The search bar felt odd because it sat in a full-width band while the thing it narrowed was a 290px rail below and to the left. The whole band now lives in the rail column: search, backend, use cases, refinements, then the list it narrows. One column to say what you want, one to show what you got. Nineteen chips do not fit at that width, so they fold into a disclosure that states the selection. A disclosure and not a popover, deliberately: picking use cases is multi-select and interleaves with the backend select and the toggles below, and a popover dismisses itself the moment you touch either. The header held two counts and two buttons at arm's length from all of it. The counts were the third statement of the same number on one screen, after the rail's "9 of 1,247" and the pane's own headline, so they go. The buttons move into the pane's zero state, which is the surface that answers "what do I do here". Also: the two first-run empty states wore .loading-center, which is display:flex in the default row direction because it exists to centre one spinner. With four children that put the icon, the heading, the sentence and the buttons on a single line with no gap. They are now a proper full-height empty state. e2e: full suite 353 passing. Grouping tests are replaced by ones asserting the rail stays flat; chip tests open the disclosure first; two filter-layout tests that asserted the old three-band arrangement now assert the column. Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> Assisted-by: Claude:claude-opus-5 [Claude Code] * polish(ui): make Discover a full-height view, group the chips, name the refinements Four things, all of them the same complaint: the page read as a document with controls scattered on it rather than as one view. The header is fused. A title block with its own padding, a subtitle and two counts made the split view look like an attachment to a document that happened to sit below it. It is now a slim bar carrying the title, the count and the two page-level actions, and the split fills the rest of the window. Rail and pane scroll independently, so the filters and the pane's headline stay put while a long list moves under them. The chips group. Nineteen in a flat row is a lot to scan even behind a disclosure, and they already belong to the four families the rest of the UI speaks, so they are bucketed by those. "All" sits on its own above them without a heading, because it is a reset rather than a use case. The refinements stop looking dumped. When the band became a column they were three controls left where they landed; they now read as a named section with one control per row. The zero state suggests again. It had decayed into a "Browsing / 9 of 1,247 / select a model" line that restated the count for the third time on one screen. It now offers the four use cases as tiles that set the filter, which is the shelf idea from the mock without inventing curation or paying for a second fetch. Two bugs found by looking at it rather than at the tests: the disclosure was clamped to 190px, which cut it off partway through its third section so two of the five never appeared at all; and the creation actions rendered twice, once in the new bar and once in the pane hero a few pixels away. e2e: full suite 353 passing. The chip-row test now holds its contract across the per-family rows rather than a single one, and additionally asserts every family is present and non-empty. Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> Assisted-by: Claude:claude-opus-5 [Claude Code] * fix(ui): pin the split view's height so a long detail scrolls the pane Selecting a model with a long description grew the whole page and dragged the rail down with it, which is the opposite of what "full height" was supposed to buy. The flex chain was right and the ceiling was missing. .app-layout and .main-content are min-height:100dvh, which is a floor: flex distributes free space but nothing caps growth, so a pane taller than the viewport expanded the column, the document scrolled, and the rail stretched to match. height:100% on the pane then resolved against an auto-height parent and did nothing. The chat route already solves this by pinning .main-content to 100dvh. The same treatment now applies to any route containing a .page--app, selected with :has() so the shell does not have to learn which pages happen to be split views. Below the stacking breakpoint the pin is lifted, because two stacked halves in two short scrollers is worse than a page that scrolls. Measured on a live instance: document height stays at the viewport across selection (950px either side) and the pane overflows internally instead. Adds discover-height.spec.js, which asserts the page height and the rail height are unchanged by selection and that the pane is the thing that scrolls. The existing specs could not have caught this: they mock short descriptions, and the bug only appears when the pane has more content than the viewport holds. e2e: full suite 355 passing. Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> Assisted-by: Claude:claude-opus-5 [Claude Code] * feat(ui): give Backends and Host the full-height view, and fix the Update button Backends now matches Discover: the header fuses into a slim bar carrying the title, the count and the page-level actions, the filters move into the rail column where they narrow the rail and nothing else, and the split fills the window. Its seven chips fit at rail width, so unlike Discover's nineteen they need no disclosure. Host gets the bar and the height; its resource monitor, summary cards and tabs stay above the split, because those are read once while the rail and the pane are worked in. Two things the height change surfaced. The console layout is a flex row with align-items:flex-start, so its body sizes to content. Right for the pages it was built for, wrong for a split view, which needs a ceiling to scroll inside: without it the Backends rail ran past the viewport and over the footer. Pinned with :has() so only split-view routes are affected. The filters vanished when nothing matched. Both galleries swapped the whole shell for an empty state, which took the search box and the chips with it, so the page said "try adjusting your search or filters" while offering neither. The shell now stays and the empty state moves into the pane. Also fixes the Update control on Host, which had no className at all and rendered as bare text, next to a status span that had picked up btn classes and two copies of `fas` and so rendered as a button you cannot press. They have swapped appearances back. e2e: full suite 355 passing. The render-smoke selector learns .view-bar__title, since the pages it checks no longer all use PageHeader.

The search box lives in the rail column, so every debounced refetch unmounted the field being typed into and dropped its focus with it. The list, the filters and the pane went too. The shell now stays and the rail says it is busy: a sweep bar under its header and the stale list dimmed, so the eye knows the answer is being replaced without losing its place. A cold start still gets the skeleton, because there is nothing to keep. The condition for that is "nothing has loaded yet", not "the list is empty". Those differ exactly when someone is editing a query that matched nothing, and getting it wrong there would unmount the view on the keystroke after a no-results search - the worst possible moment. Grouping comes back on both galleries. It was removed because nine rows could not fill five buckets, so a page turn rebuilt the rail's whole structure. That was a symptom of the page size rather than of grouping: the rail now asks for 30 rows instead of 9 (Backends 60 instead of 21), which is enough for the sections to read as structure and turns five times fewer pages. The order of the sections is fixed, so what changes between pages is membership, not arrangement. Grouped while browsing, flat while searching, as before: once a term is typed the buckets stand between the reader and the answer. Also gives GalleryLoader a class and a testid instead of six inline style declarations on a bare div, which is why nothing could select it. e2e: full suite 359 passing, including a new spec asserting the search box keeps its focus and its value across a refetch, and that a cold start still shows the skeleton.

It was not the search and not the listing: /api/models answers in 3-9ms. It was the VRAM estimate, which the gallery asks for once per row, and which took ~2.3s every single time however often the same model was asked about. pkg/vram already caches what makes that expensive - the remote content-length probes, the GGUF metadata reads and the HF repo sizes. Those caches key on a gallery generation counter, and AvailableGalleryModelsCached triggered a background refresh on every call, with each refresh bumping the counter. One page view is one listing request plus thirty estimate requests, each of which re-read the gallery and started another refresh, so the generation moved constantly and every cache entry was stale before it could ever be read. The caches were dead in production. Three changes, each doing one thing: A refresh interval. The cached list is still served immediately; this only decides how often re-fetching from upstream is worth starting. Five minutes, as a package variable so tests can drive it without waiting. A generation bump only when the gallery actually changed. An unchanged gallery re-fetched on schedule must not throw away work that is still valid, which is the difference between an estimate costing nothing and costing a network round trip. A separate "loaded" flag. The cache engaged on `cached != nil`, so a gallery that legitimately holds nothing read as never-loaded and took the blocking path on every call, bumping the generation each time. Found by the test for the interval, which could not pass while this was true. Measured against a live instance with 1,595 models: one estimate, repeated 2.3s -> 2ms a page of 30, in parallel 10s -> 0.04s A first, genuinely unseen model still costs its remote probe. That is inherent; what changed is that it is now paid once per model per gallery version rather than once per request. Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> Assisted-by: Claude:claude-opus-5 [Claude Code] * perf(gallery): warm VRAM estimates at startup, and stop the UI waiting on them Two halves of the same complaint: the gallery stalls on VRAM estimation. Server side, the estimates are now warmed in the background at startup. Estimating an entry nobody has asked about costs a remote probe of its weight files, and the gallery needs one per row, so the first visitor was paying for the whole page. The warm-up walks the gallery in the order the UI lists it, so the first page is ready before anyone reaches it. It is bounded and it never blocks: 300 entries at 4 at a time by default, on its own goroutine, stopping with the server's context. Warming the whole gallery would be thousands of probes on every boot, which is rude to the upstream and slow to finish; warming nothing leaves the first page paying two seconds a row. Anything past the limit still warms itself on first view. LOCALAI_VRAM_WARM_LIMIT=0 turns it off for an air-gapped host, LOCALAI_VRAM_WARM_CONCURRENCY=1 slows it for a metered link. Client side, the page no longer waits on estimates it does not need yet. It fired one request per row at once; a browser allows about six connections per host, so thirty estimates took every slot and the request behind a click - the variant list, an install - queued behind work nobody asked for. That is the freeze: the list was already usable, and the UI was busy fetching sizes. Four at a time leaves room for the interactive request to overtake, and a row whose estimate is still in flight says "sizing…" rather than leaving a blank where a number will appear. buildEstimateInput moves to core/gallery as EstimateInput, since the handler and the warmer both need it. Measured against 1,595 models, from a cold boot: page 1, 30 estimates in parallel 10s -> 0.04s full warm-up (299 of 300 entries) 3m, in the background Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> Assisted-by: Claude:claude-opus-5 [Claude Code] * chore: untrack data/.local_user_id and ignore the runtime data dir `local-ai run` writes its instance state under ./data when started from the repo root, which is exactly what a contributor testing a build does. The identity file ended up committed on this branch by a `git add -A` while verifying the gallery changes against a live instance. Anchored, so it matches the runtime directory at the repo root and not a `data` directory nested inside some package.
