mudler-agentandEttore Di Giacinto 48478a89cd test(addons): refuse an unlisted platform in the packaging contract (#12884)
Tables now enables the four platforms the CI hosts run on (#12879), so the
spec that expected the host platform to be refused as not enabled failed on
the add-on packages run for 88aa56518. The refused platform is now one the
matrix never lists.

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.

* 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.

* 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.

* 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.

* feat(ui): move settings under the operate hub

* 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.

* 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.

* 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.

* 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.

* 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.

* 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.

* 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.

* 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.

components, hooks, icons, openApp and portal. Say on the Studio page
that it is installed from the drawer.

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.

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

Each worker built the Studio and Talk bundles into the same dist

The "a result made through a hand-off records which result it came from"

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

* fix(addons): carry the identity page styles in the Face add-on

The Face page is drawn with the shared identity views, but its style sheet
held only the clip and error rules. 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.

The rules for narrow screens (single-column pairs, smaller tool padding,

* 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.

* 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.

* 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.

* 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.

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.

* feat(gallery): add the model library entry shape and its reader

A model library entry is the shared library envelope (kind, id, name,
version, description, license, urls, tags, icon, channel, policy,
schemaVersion) plus a model body: url, backend, size, files,
configFile, overrides, variants and promptTemplates. 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.

* 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.

* 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.

* 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.

ignored for that entry. When two sources the user added list it, search

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.

* 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.

* 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.

* 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.

* 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.

* 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.

* ci(library): check the library and that the gallery is its copy

The model-library workflow assumed the gallery was the source. It now

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.

* 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.

* 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.

* feat(library): extend the backend body to carry what the gallery carries

The backend library entry only held an image and its digest. 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 ==.

* 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.

* test(library): check that every backend gallery entry round trips

Prove that the backend library can replace the backend gallery. 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.

* 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.

* docs(library): describe the backend library as the source of the backends

Rewrite the backends and add-ons pages for the backend library. 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.

github:, oci:// and file://, at most eight per source.

Libraries tab lists add-on sources only.

The generators wrote generated files and sample folders with 0644 and

0600 and 0750. The library path read in mergeLibrary is the operator's
own argument, so that read is annotated.

* 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.

* fix(addons): keep the loopback owner address stable across restarts

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.

* 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.

* 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.

* 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.

Each worker built the Studio and Talk bundles into the same dist

not be loaded". Build once in a global setup before the workers start.

* 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.

* 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.

* 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.

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

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

* feat(addons): upgrade add-ons on their own when the setting is on

A new auto_upgrade_addons setting (flag LOCALAI_AUTO_UPGRADE_ADDONS,
default off) lets the owner upgrade an installed add-on when its library
lists a newer version. 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.

* feat(ui): add the Upgrade add-ons automatically toggle to Settings

field.

* test(addons): cover the automatic upgrade setting and document it

The setting defaults to off in the config, the runtime settings and the
flag, and is read back from the saved settings file. With it on, a real
owner upgrades an installed add-on through the manager; with it off,
nothing changes, and a change of the setting at run time takes effect on
the next pass. 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.

* refactor(addons): name the library entry identifier id

The library entry of an add-on used addonId while the shared envelope
and the model entries use id. Release now has the field ID, written as
id, and every writer emits it: the index encoder, the package workflow
templates, the catalog generator and gallery/addons/index.yaml. 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. An entry that holds both names is refused. The Apps UI reads
id and falls back to addonId.

* feat(diarization): return sound events with include_sounds

A client that wants text, speakers, voice prints and sound events had to
make a diarization call and a separate sound call. Add an include_sounds
request field to /v1/audio/diarization that adds a sounds array of closed
events {start, end, label, confidence}, in seconds.

The parakeet-cpp backend runs a tagger-only scene stream over the clip,
the same stream and thresholds the live path uses, so a clip gives the
same events offline and live. A model with no sound_model companion, or a
backend that does not report sound events, fails with 501 and the stable
code include_sounds_unsupported instead of an empty list. The proto
carries sounds_included so an empty list still means "nothing heard".

The localai-proxy backend forwards the field. Swagger, docs and the
e2e mock backend are updated.

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.

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,

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

Three callers react to ErrNoRoute and had no spec: the reconciler's
upgrade drain falls back to the legacy forced install, the reconciler

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.

* 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.

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.

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.

* 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.

* 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.

* 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.

* 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

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.

* 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.

ClientFactory option, the logs proxy honours HTTP_PROXY, verbs one carrier

Stefan Walcz c3bea567fe fix(llama-cpp): do not stream the error text as content on pre-stream failures (#12425)
When the first result of a streamed request is an error (for example a
prompt that exceeds the context), PredictStream wrote the error message
as a Reply and only then returned the error status. LocalAI treated that
Reply as the first token: it sent the assistant role chunk and the error
text as `content` on an HTTP 200 stream. Because a chunk had already been
written, the pre-stream HTTP error path from #12204 never triggered, so
streaming clients still got a 200 with the error as model output, while
the same request without streaming correctly returns a 400.

Return the error only as the gRPC status. The e2e backend suite gets a
`context_overflow` capability (enabled for llama-cpp) that streams an
over-long prompt and asserts an error status with no content.

Ettore Di Giacinto 55f7d5bfdf fix(e2e): wire proxy api_key_env lookup into the e2e in-process app
19f6a18b8 moved credential-env resolution behind an explicit lookup
(ApplicationConfig.ProxyAPIKeyEnvLookup / config.WithProxyAPIKeyEnvLookup),
wired only at the CLI boundary (core/cli/run.go). The e2e suite builds its
Application in-process without that option, so the failover prober could
never resolve a remote target's api_key_env, remote liveness never passed,
and "fails over ... and fails back" hung waiting for chain-remote to
recover. Pass config.WithProxyAPIKeyEnvLookup(os.Getenv) there too, same as
the CLI. worker/federated commands don't serve proxy/failover configs and
tests/e2e-ui never sets api_key_env, so neither needs the lookup.

Also make the misconfiguration itself easier to diagnose: the prober now
logs a one-time xlog.Warn per api_key_env when a remote target sets it but
no lookup is configured, instead of only surfacing it as a per-probe
"is unset" error indistinguishable from a genuinely empty env var.

636c43baa5 fix(openai): return HTTP errors for pre-stream failures and report per-slot context (#12204)
* fix(capabilities): report the per-request context with split KV slots

With parallel slots and kv_unified:false, llama.cpp gives each slot
n_ctx/n_parallel, padded up to a multiple of 256. /models/capabilities

context_size then overflows at a fraction of it.

EffectiveRequestContextSize returns the per-slot size in that case and
the full context otherwise. With the unified KV cache, the grpc-server
default, one request may use all of n_ctx. The capabilities endpoint
and the router's prompt trimmer now use it.

* fix(openai): return an HTTP error when a stream fails before any chunk

A streamed chat request set the SSE headers, then waited for the
backend. When the backend failed before the first token, LocalAI sent
a 200 with a `data: {"error":...}` chunk and [DONE]. Clients that do
not parse error chunks saw an empty reply. cogito's LocalAI client was
one of them: nib users got "streaming decision produced no content"
instead of the context overflow that caused it.

Nothing has been written at that point, so the handler now returns the
error as a normal HTTP response. A failure after the first chunk keeps
the in-stream error chunk.

A prompt that exceeds the context is now a 400 on both paths, as in
the OpenAI API and llama-server, and no longer a 500. The message is
kept whole, because clients read the token counts from it.

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).

Regression specs verified to fail with the exclusion disabled.

localai-org-maint-botandEttore Di Giacinto 7a234473e8 fix(ci): unbreak the e2e build and the darwin vllm-metal pin (#11849)
Two independent breakages on master make every open pull request red,
for reasons unrelated to the changes under review.

The e2e backend suite stopped compiling. Reply.message is `bytes` in
backend.proto, so res.GetMessage() returns []byte, and strings.ToUpper
wants a string. Every other call site in the file already converts.
tests/e2e-backends sits behind a build tag, so `go build ./...` never
compiled it and the breakage reached master unnoticed.

The darwin vllm build stopped resolving. Upstream vllm-metal deleted
its old dev tags and re-versioned to track the vLLM release it targets,
so the pinned wheel 404s. The coupled vLLM release also moved out of
upstream's install.sh into .github/vllm-release-tag.commit, and the
wheel's platform tag moved from macosx_11_0 to macosx_15_0.

Read the wheel name from the release's own asset listing rather than
composing it from a hardcoded platform segment, so a platform-tag
change cannot silently 404 again, and resolve the vLLM version from
the new metadata file with a fallback to the legacy installer. The
bump script and the extractor learn the same two-source lookup, so the
next nightly run converges on the pin checked in here instead of
reintroducing the break.

Claudio Maradonna 9e831d7709 fix(ds4): build CUDA kernels for the target architecture (#11840)
* fix(ds4): build CUDA kernels for the target architecture

The ds4 backend compiled its CUDA objects with no -arch. Upstream's Makefile
leaves CUDA_ARCH empty and its `cuda` target refuses to build without one,
offering `cuda-spark` (sm_121) and `cuda-generic` (native) instead. We invoke
its object targets directly, which bypasses that guard, so nvcc fell back to
its default architecture and the kernels ran as JIT'd PTX on the real GPU.

On GB10 (sm_121) that silently corrupted inference: any prompt over roughly 128
tokens produced text unrelated to the input and never closed its thinking
block, so content came back empty and the chat showed only reasoning; longer
prompts failed with "cuda decode failed". It also cost close to two orders of
magnitude of prefill throughput. Measured on one box, same model, same prompt,
same GPU, upstream ds4 at the pinned commit, differing only in the nvcc flags:

  make -B ds4      (archless, as we build it)   garbage output    4.21 t/s
  make cuda-spark  (compute_121a/sm_121a)       correct output  325.70 t/s

Select an architecture list from CUDA_MAJOR_VERSION, which the backend matrix
already declares for both ds4 cublas entries but Dockerfile.ds4 never forwarded.
Upstream's CUDA_ARCH takes a single value, so it cannot express the fat binary
these images need; NVCC_ARCH_FLAGS is overridden instead, since a command-line
assignment wins over its `:=`. The lists are copied from vllm-cpp rather than
invented so the two CUDA images cover the same GPUs, with l4t/arm64 covering
Orin, Thor and GB10. An empty CUDA_MAJOR_VERSION keeps upstream's `native`
behaviour for local developer builds, and no CI runner has a GPU to enumerate.

DS4_CUDA_HAVE_MXF4 is deliberately left unset: upstream defines it only for
single-arch sm_120/sm_121 builds and guards it with a plain #ifdef rather than
__CUDA_ARCH__, so it cannot be combined with older archs. It gates an optional
MXFP4 indexer fast path whose #ifndef branch returns 0 and falls back cleanly,
so omitting it costs speed on GB10, not correctness.

* test(ds4): cover the multi-batch prefill regression

The architecture fix has no automated guard: every existing e2e spec uses a
short prompt, and the miscompiled backend answered short prompts correctly.
The corruption only appears once a prompt spans more than one prefill batch,
so the whole suite passed against a backend that produced garbage in normal
use.

Add an opt-in "long_prefill" capability to the backend e2e suite that sends a
prompt well past one batch with a known needle and asserts the answer still
reflects it, and document in the ds4 guide why the build must never omit an
nvcc architecture, how to check which flags a configuration resolves to
without compiling, and how to run the new spec.

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.

* 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.

* 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.

* 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.

* 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.

* 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.

* test: drop the static network lint in favour of real isolation

The offline test suite already prevents tests from reaching the network
twice over: run-test-linux-offline.sh puts the test process in a cgroup
and REJECTs egress outside the private ranges, and HardenedTransport
installs testnetwork.LocalGuard to refuse dials that resolve to a public
address. Both fail the test with a precise error at the moment of the
dial.

test-network-lint.sh added neither. Its diff stage defaulted to a HEAD
base, so on a clean checkout it compared the tree against itself and
inspected nothing; the branch's own commits were never examined. It only
produced output when an earlier job step dirtied the tree, and then it
matched a bare https?:// against whatever changed. make react-ui runs
npm install rather than npm ci, so CI rewrote
core/http/react-ui/package-lock.json and the lint reported an npm
registry URL as forbidden test network access:

  +      "resolved": "https://registry.npmjs.org/hono/-/hono-4.12.25.tgz",

Its fingerprint stage was self-defeating in a quieter way: hashing the
whole tree's network-mechanism inventory meant every rebase onto a master
that touched any _test.go needed a manual baseline bump, so the check
mostly caught its own staleness.

Remove the script, its make target and the two prerequisite edges, along
with the test-network: fixture markers that existed only to suppress it.
The isolation itself is untouched.

Cherry-picked from 15a37b0ac on the remote branch. The offline bundle lives

The other half of 15a37b0ac moved test-network-lint out of the `test` and
`test-coverage` prerequisite lists into a recipe line, so parallel make could
not fingerprint the tree while generated fixtures were still changing. That
is dropped: the preceding commit removes the lint entirely, and the race it
worked around is one more reason a whole-tree fingerprint was the wrong
mechanism.

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.

* feat(router): name consulted corpus neighbours in knn decisions

Every knn decision (decision log rows and the /api/router/decide
response) now carries neighbors: the K retrieved corpus entries by
descending similarity - including ones below the epistemic gate, which
is what makes fallback decisions diagnosable - each as {id, similarity,
labels}. 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. A corrupt index payload surfaces as an id-less neighbour at a
real similarity instead of disappearing.

* refactor(router): deduplicate knn plumbing and cut corpus hot-path waste

Post-review cleanup of the knn-first-class-router branch; no behaviour
changes on the API surface.

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.

Closes #1649.

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

- Add Detokenize gRPC RPC with DetokenizeRequest{tokens} /

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

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

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

API change, and it mirrors the in-memory local-store while adding persistence
across restarts and opt-in HNSW.

Each vector is a Valkey HASH keyed by hex(little-endian float32); the index is
created lazily on first Set (FLAT+COSINE by default), cosine similarity is
derived as 1-distance, and namespaces get a collision-resistant token. Includes
unit tests (valkey-go mock) and env-gated integration tests against
valkey/valkey-bundle, plus build/matrix/gallery wiring and docs.

* Address review feedback: recover persisted index dimension, harden Find

- Load now recovers the persisted vector DIM from FT.INFO (not just index
  existence), so a post-restart Set/Find validates against the real DIM
  instead of silently re-learning a wrong one and dropping mismatched
  vectors from the index. This also restores Find's dimension check after
  a restart.
- StoresFind treats a dropped/missing index as an empty store (empty
  result, no error) and clears the stale indexCreated flag, matching
  local-store's empty-store behaviour.
- StoresSet reuses checkDims for its per-key length check so the four RPCs
  share one dimension-guard implementation.
- Add unit tests for FT.INFO dimension recovery, loadIndexState, and the

Addresses external review comments on the valkey-store backend:

- StoresFind now rejects a nil/empty query Key before dereferencing it,
  so a malformed gRPC request can no longer panic the backend.
- TLS: derive ServerName (SNI) from the VALKEY_ADDR host so certificate
  verification works for IP-addressed endpoints, and add VALKEY_TLS_CA_CERT
  (custom CA bundle) and VALKEY_TLS_SKIP_VERIFY (testing-only) knobs.
- Config integer parsing now fails fast on a malformed value (e.g.
  VALKEY_HNSW_M=1x6) instead of silently defaulting, matching the
  fail-fast behaviour of the index-algo/distance-metric validation.
- Add VALKEY_DB (SELECT n) support for logical-DB isolation.
- Cap the human-readable part of a namespace token at 64 chars so a very
  long model name cannot produce an unbounded key prefix / index name
  (the appended short hash keeps distinct namespaces collision-free).
- Document the KNN-query injection-safety invariant (fields are constants)
  and why StoresGet uses a single aggregate DoMulti deadline for reads.
- Unit tests for the Find nil/empty-key guard, fail-fast HNSW parsing,
  and VALKEY_DB parsing/validation; docs + .env updated for the new vars.

* Address review feedback: configure valkey-store via model config

richiejp asked that the valkey-store backend take its configuration from
a model config rather than process-wide VALKEY_* environment variables,
so multiple stores can each have their own Valkey config within one
LocalAI process. This removes every env access from the backend and
routes config through the model-config seam every other backend uses.

- config.go: loadConfig(opts *pb.ModelOptions) now parses the model
  config `options:` list (key:value strings, split on the first ':')
  instead of os.Getenv. Option keys mirror the old VALKEY_* names without
  the prefix (addr, index_algo, distance_metric, ...). Defaults, fail-fast
  validation and the mandatory client name are unchanged.
- store.go: Load threads opts into loadConfig; TLS comments/errors renamed
  off the VALKEY_* names.
- core/backend/stores.go: StoreBackend and NewVectorStore take a
  *config.ModelConfigLoader, resolve the per-store ModelConfig by store
  name, and pass its Options (and Backend when unset) to the backend via
  WithLoadGRPCLoadModelOpts. No config -> default backend + built-in
  defaults, preserving the zero-config experience.
- Endpoints/routes/application: thread the config loader to StoreBackend.
- Unit + integration tests: configure via options; the integration test
  passes addr through the model-config path (VALKEY_ADDR is now only the
  test harness locating the server).
- docs + .env: document the model-config options, drop the env var table.

* feat(llama-cpp): route Score through the slot loop

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

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

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

Classifier-mode responses: instead of autoregressive generation, each user
turn is prefill-scored against the option list (router.ScoreClassifier

canned reply and tool call are emitted through the existing response
machinery. Below-threshold turns take the configured fallback (none /
canned reply / generate); empty transcripts and unaddressed turns (wake
word not mentioned) skip scoring entirely. The scoring probe defaults to
the latest user message only — small scorers echo canned replies from
prior turns back as the top option otherwise.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

mudler's LocalAI [bot]andEttore Di Giacinto 878a0d00a1 fix(distributed): reaper reaps live backends, ghost model stubs, in_flight leak, sidecar staging runaway (#11142)
* fix(distributed): stop the probe reaper from orphaning busy backends

The reconciler's liveness probe is a 1s gRPC HealthCheck, and a single
failed probe deleted the model's node_models row. A backend that is
merely busy cannot answer it: single-threaded Python backends (video and
avatar generation) block for minutes inside one request, so the reaper
was deleting registry rows for backends that were alive and mid-request.

The model then vanished from the nodes page while it was still
generating, and because the row was gone the in-flight decrement had
nothing to decrement ("DecrementInFlight: no matching row or already
zero"). Every subsequent request re-routed and re-staged the full model
from scratch.

Two guards:

  - Replicas with in-flight requests are excluded in SQL. A row that is
    actively serving is proof of life, and the running request is
    exactly what stops the backend from answering the probe.

  - Idle replicas must miss three CONSECUTIVE probes before removal, so
    a transient blip cannot orphan a live replica. A successful probe
    resets the streak.

* fix(distributed): drop the local model stub when its last replica goes

In distributed mode every routed model leaves an in-process stub in the
frontend's ModelLoader, and DistributedModelStore.Range reports local
stubs UNION the registry rows. Every registry removal path deletes only
the DB row, so the stub outlived the replica and the model was reported
as loaded forever.

That is the "loaded on the home page, absent from every node" ghost:
/system reads the union and still sees the stub, while /api/nodes/models
reads the registry and correctly sees nothing. It never self-healed,
and both frontend replicas showed it independently.

The replica-removed chokepoint could not fix this as it stood, because
it held a SINGLE hook that the prefix cache already owned, and it was
registered only when the prefix cache was enabled. Registering a second
listener would have silently displaced the first.

  - Turn replicaRemovedHook into a list (AddReplicaRemovedHook), so
    independent subsystems can each register without displacing others.
  - Add NewLocalStubInvalidator, which drops the local stub once no
    healthy replica of the model remains anywhere in the cluster, and
    wire it unconditionally in startup.

The stub is kept while another node still serves the model: the
frontend is right to consider it loaded, and each request re-routes
through SmartRouter to pick a live replica anyway.

* fix(distributed): stop staging checksum sidecars back to workers

The file transfer server writes a "<file>.sha256" sidecar next to every
file it accepts. The sender walked the model directory with no filter,
so it staged those sidecars too, and the receiver duly wrote a sidecar
for each sidecar. Every staging pass multiplied the tree:

  config.json -> config.json.sha256 -> config.json.sha256.sha256 -> ...

One LongCat snapshot had grown to 498 files, 466 of them chained, up to
29 levels deep, and the staged file count climbed on every pass. This
inflates each transfer and grows disk without bound on both ends.

Skip hash sidecars in stageDirectory, and mirror the skip in
countStageableFiles so the progress bar still reaches 100%. The check is
"a sidecar sitting next to a real file" rather than a blanket suffix
ban, so a model that genuinely ships a .sha256 payload with no
corresponding base file is still transferred.

* fix(distributed): classify the liveness probe instead of gating on in_flight

The previous commit excluded replicas with in-flight requests from the probe
reaper. That was the wrong guard, and could invert the bug it fixed.

in_flight has no decrement guarantee: track() balances its increment with a
defer, but a frontend killed mid-request never runs it, and the load-time
reservation is released only when the first inference completes. Nothing
resets a leaked counter. Gating the reaper on it therefore meant a leaked
counter would shield a genuinely dead replica from ever being reaped.

Nor was patience alone a fix: three misses at the default interval is ~90s of
silence, while the generation that triggered this blocks for 15+ minutes.

The real conflation was in the probe itself. A gRPC HealthCheck against the
backend's serving port measures "is it idle enough to answer", not "does the
process exist", and probeLoadedModels discarded the error that tells them
apart. Because the gRPC client is lazy, the status code is decisive:

  - DeadlineExceeded: transport fine, nothing serviced the RPC. Busy.
  - Unavailable: nothing is listening. Gone.

ModelProber now returns a ProbeOutcome, and only ProbeUnreachable counts
toward the reap threshold. ProbeBusy clears the streak: it is evidence of
life. A blackholed network reads as busy too, deliberately, since whole-node
failure is the health monitor's job.

* feat(distributed): reconcile replicas against worker-reported processes

Probing a backend's own serving port cannot distinguish "busy" from "gone"
without inferring it from an error code. The worker can answer directly: it
spawned the process, holds the handle, and its reply is not blocked by
whatever that backend is doing.

Adds a models.running request-reply subject. The worker answers out of its
in-memory process table, reporting each live process as (modelID,
replicaIndex, address) — the supervisor's process keys are `modelID#replica`,
which is isomorphic to a NodeModel row, so the reconciler can diff the two
directly.

reconcileNodeProcesses runs before the port probe and reaps rows for models
the worker is not running. Models the worker vouches for get updated_at
bumped, which takes them out of the port prober's stale set entirely: that is
what keeps a backend deep in a long generation away from the probe in the
first place, rather than relying on classifying its silence after the fact.

A worker that does not answer is skipped, not assumed empty. A messaging
failure says nothing about the processes, and assuming the worst would delete
a node's rows on a transient NATS blip; the port probe stays as the fallback
for those nodes. Rows younger than probeStaleAfter are ignored so a freshly
created row is never judged against a process table that has not caught up.

* fix(distributed): stop in_flight leaking and pin replicas against eviction

A leaked in_flight counter is not cosmetic. FindLRUModel,
FindGlobalLRUModelWithZeroInFlight and the router's eviction query all require
in_flight = 0, so a replica whose counter never came back is pinned and its
VRAM is unreclaimable for the lifetime of the process.

Two halves.

The source: routing reserves in_flight = 1 at load time so a freshly loaded
replica is not evicted out from under the request that caused the load. That
reservation was released ONLY by the first inference completing, so a route
torn down before any inference ran (client disconnect, handler error, failure
between load and the backend call) stranded it. newRouteResult now wires the
reservation to a sync.Once fired by whichever comes first, the first inference
or route teardown, and replaces three copies of the old wiring.

The backstop: a sweeper for counters leaked by paths that cannot run a defer
at all, such as a frontend killed mid-request.

Identifying a leak by elapsed time alone is unsafe. IncrementInFlight stamps
last_used at request START and nothing moves it while the request runs, so a
long generation is indistinguishable from a leak by age, and resetting there
would expose a serving model to eviction. The probe supplies the missing bit:
a backend that answers a health check promptly is not inside a request,
because that is precisely what a busy one cannot do. Requiring the row to also
be idle for 30 minutes covers backends that serve in parallel and can answer
while working, since those keep last_used fresh through each new increment.

Two existing tests asserted the old behaviour ("No decrement on Release").
That assertion was the leak, so both now pin the release instead.

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

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

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

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

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

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

mudler's LocalAI [bot]andEttore Di Giacinto 465d488c90 fix(distributed): reject wrong-model requests at the backend (#10970)
fix(distributed): reject wrong-model requests at the backend (#10952)

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

mudler's LocalAI [bot]andEttore Di Giacinto f735cb24c0 fix(worker): reap deleted backends and stop models that live on a worker (#10956)
* fix(worker): reap deleted backends and stop models that live on a worker

Three related backend-lifecycle defects, all reachable from the same
production incident on a Jetson/Thor worker: a deleted backend's gRPC
process survived ~40 minutes with its directory removed from disk, a later
model load was routed to that orphan and failed with a certifi path pointing
into the deleted directory, and the admin could not stop the model because
the frontend reported it as not loaded.

1. backend.delete orphaned the process it claimed to delete
------------------------------------------------------------
s.processes is keyed by `modelID#replicaIndex` (buildProcessKey), so the
backend name never appeared in a key and was recorded nowhere on the
process. backend.delete resolved its target via isRunning/stopBackend, whose
prefix path only matches a bare *modelID* - a delete keyed on a backend name
resolved to zero keys, the stop silently no-op'd, and the files were removed
out from under a live process.

The install fast path then handed that orphan back out: it returns any live
process for the (model, replica) slot without checking which backend started
it, so a reinstalled variant inherited the deleted backend's port.

- Record backendName on backendProcess, threaded installBackend ->
  startBackend.
- Add resolveProcessKeysForBackend, matching the recorded name and resolving
  alias <-> concrete via ListSystemBackends *before* DeleteBackendFromSystem
  erases the metadata that carries the alias. Alias resolution failure
  degrades to name-only matching so a delete never fails on it.
- backend.stop goes through resolveStopTargets, which accepts a backend
  name, a model name, or an exact modelID#replica key. Its payload field is
  named "backend" but is published with all three meanings: the admin UI
  sends a backend name, UnloadRemoteModel sends a model name, and the
  router's abandoned-load reap (#10948) sends an exact replica key.
  Narrowing it to backend names alone would strand the latter two.
  backend.delete stays strict - its identifier is unambiguously a backend.
- Gate the install fast path on processMatchesBackend so a slot held by a
  different backend is restarted rather than reused. Processes with no
  recorded name (pre-upgrade) are accepted, so rollout does not restart
  every running backend.
- stopBackendExact reports a real stop failure - the process still being
  alive afterwards, which is precisely what finishBackendStop already
  detects to keep the entry and its port reserved - and backend.delete no
  longer replies success when it knew about a process and could not kill it.
  "No process was running" stays a success but is logged, so the orphan case
  is visible rather than silent.

2. /backend/shutdown reported a running model as missing
---------------------------------------------------------
ModelLoader.deleteProcess short-circuits on a miss in this replica's
in-memory store. In distributed mode the authoritative record of "is this
model loaded" is the shared node registry: a frontend replica that never
served the model itself (load balancer picked a peer, or the replica
restarted) has no local entry. The remote unload path that pkg/model
documents ("when ShutdownModel is called for a model with no local process,
UnloadRemoteModel is called") sat behind that short-circuit, unreachable in
exactly the case it exists for. #10865 reworked this function but kept the
short-circuit at the top, so the gap survived that refactor.

- deleteProcess consults the remote unloader on a local-store miss, via a
  shared unloadRemote helper so this branch and the existing
  no-local-process branch both prefer #10865's RemoteModelContextUnloader,
  preserving force propagation across the distributed boundary.
- UnloadRemoteModelContext reports ErrRemoteModelNotLoaded when no node has
  the model; it previously returned nil, making a no-op stop
  indistinguishable from a real one. The converse case (nodes have it, none
  could be stopped) already errors since #10865 joined the per-node
  failures, so that half of the original fix was dropped as redundant.
- Only when the model is absent locally AND cluster-wide does the endpoint
  report not-found, now 404 naming both scopes rather than a bare 500.
- modelNotFoundErr becomes the exported ErrModelNotFound so the HTTP layer
  can map it without string matching; watchdog's identity comparison becomes
  errors.Is.

3. Coverage for the bounded Free() that #10865 shipped untested
----------------------------------------------------------------
The original branch also bounded the pre-stop Free(), but #10865 landed that
fix first (workerBackendFreeTimeout, applied in both stopBackendExact and
handleModelUnload). That production change is therefore DROPPED here as
superseded - master's version is strictly better, since it also releases the
supervisor mutex across the call and keeps the port reserved until
termination completes.

What #10865 did not ship is a test, and the bound is load-bearing: the
router-side reap in #10948 sends backend.stop for an abandoned load, and
against a wedged backend an unbounded Free would swallow that stop before it
reached the process. Nothing failed if the bound regressed.

The spec stands up a real gRPC backend server whose Free handler never
returns - what a Python backend looks like when its single worker thread
(PYTHON_GRPC_MAX_WORKERS=1 on 37 backends) is occupied by a stuck LoadModel.
A stub socket is not sufficient and was tried first: without a completed
HTTP/2 handshake, gRPC's own ~20s connect timeout ends the call, so that
version passed against the very bug it targets. With the connection READY,
only the caller's deadline can end it, so the spec hangs to its 60s limit if
the timeout is removed and passes with it.

Its fixture process is deliberately never started. go-processmanager v0.1.1
writes Process.pid from readPID() without synchronization, so a live process
races its own monitor goroutine under -race - reproducible with a bare
Run()+Stop() and unrelated to this spec. Since
scripts/model-lifecycle-conformance.sh runs this package with -race and is
fail-closed, starting one would turn that gate red on an upstream defect. An
unstarted process still proves the point: the stop is reached and the slot
released, which is exactly what an unbounded Free prevents.

Verified: make lint (new-from-merge-base origin/master) reports 0 issues;
scripts/model-lifecycle-conformance.sh passes all three stages including the
FizzBee liveness check (1458 states, IsLive: true).

* fix(distributed): keep remote unload idempotent, ask presence separately

2035a4d25 made UnloadRemoteModel return ErrRemoteModelNotLoaded when no node
holds the model, so ShutdownModel could answer 404 instead of a misleading
500. That narrowed a shared adapter contract to serve one caller and broke
the documented idempotent-unload guarantee, which CI caught on PR #10956:

  [FAIL] Node Backend Lifecycle (NATS-driven) > NATS backend.stop events
         should be no-op for models not on any node [Distributed]
         Expected success, but got: model not loaded on any node

The spec name states the contract outright. The matching unit assertion was
updated in that commit; this e2e one was missed because it lives under
tests/e2e/ with no build tags and does not run in package-scoped test runs.

Caller audit - who breaks when an idempotent unload becomes an error:

- pkg/model/watchdog.go:902 (LRU memory reclaimer) is the serious one. It
  untracks a model ONLY when shutdown returns nil or ErrModelNotFound. A new
  error type means the model is never untracked, so the reclaimer keeps
  re-selecting the same entry and never reclaims - a live wedge whenever a
  local store entry outlives the remote model.
- core/services/galleryop/managers_local.go:43 (DeleteModel) would warn on
  every deletion of an already-unloaded model.
- core/services/modeladmin/{state,config,remote_sync}.go stop instances
  best-effort against models that are frequently not loaded.
- deleteProcess itself: the no-local-process branch returns the unload result
  directly, so a stale local entry for a model no longer on any node turned a
  previously-successful cleanup into a failure.

Only ShutdownModel wants the distinction, and only on the local-store-miss
path. So the distinction moves to the caller instead of the contract:

- UnloadRemoteModel/UnloadRemoteModelContext return nil again when no node
  has the model, and ErrRemoteModelNotLoaded is removed.
- New optional RemoteModelPresenceChecker (HasRemoteModel) answers the
  question directly. deleteProcess consults it BEFORE unloading, because an
  idempotent unload cannot report afterwards whether anything was stopped.
  Absent locally AND cluster-wide is the only case that reports 404.
- A failed registry lookup is surfaced rather than reported as absence: an
  unreachable registry is not evidence a model is gone, and answering a
  confident 404 off a failed lookup is how an operator gets told a running
  model does not exist.
- Unloaders that predate the extension keep working - deleteProcess attempts
  the unload rather than refusing it - and compile-time assertions in the
  nodes package now pin all three optional interfaces, since both are
  consumed by runtime type assertion where drift degrades behavior silently
  instead of failing the build.

The contract is now pinned at both levels that disagreed, each spec pointing
at the other: "with no nodes returns nil" in unloader_test.go and "should be
no-op for models not on any node" in node_lifecycle_test.go.

Verified: full distributed e2e suite 233 passed / 0 failed (the suite that
failed 232/1 in CI); pkg/model and core/services/nodes green; make lint
new-from-merge-base reports 0 issues.

* fix(distributed): drop replica rows when a worker stops a backend

A worker returns a stopped backend's gRPC port to its allocator as soon as
the process is confirmed dead, and hands it to the next backend that starts.
The controller's NodeModel row for the old address survives, and both
SmartRouter.probeHealth and the HealthMonitor per-model probe verify
liveness, not identity, so once an unrelated backend binds the recycled port
the stale row passes every check and the request is served by the wrong
backend instead of failing.

backend.delete is newly able to trigger this: before #10956 a delete never
actually stopped a process, so it never recycled a port. backend.upgrade has
the identical gap and always did — upgradeBackend force-stops every process
using the binary and starts none back up, while
DistributedBackendManager.UpgradeBackend never removes rows. model.unload is
the one path that gets this right today: it calls RemoveAllNodeModelReplicas
straight after StopBackend.

Report the process keys the worker terminated on the delete and upgrade
replies, and drop the matching rows in RemoteUnloaderAdapter, which already
holds a ModelLocator with RemoveNodeModel. All three call sites funnel
through that adapter, so no new interface, DB migration, or proto change is
needed. A key is reported only once its process is confirmed gone, so the
list stays trustworthy on the partial-failure replies too.

Old workers never populate the new fields. ReportsStoppedProcesses tells
"stopped nothing" apart from "does not report", so an old worker's silence
falls back to the pre-existing probe-based staleness recovery instead of
being mistaken for a completed cleanup.

Quarantine released ports for a short window as an interlock covering the
NATS round-trip between the worker freeing the port and the controller
dropping the row. It is deliberately not derived from HealthCheckInterval:
that cadence is operator-tunable and the per-model reaper can be disabled
outright, so coupling a worker-local constant to it would be silently wrong
on some clusters. Eager row removal is the fix; the delay only closes the
handoff gap.

Identity verification in probeHealth was considered and rejected: Health and
Status carry no backend identity, so it needs a proto change plus an
implementation in 36 Python and 4 C++ Health servicers, it is fail-open for
any backend not yet rebuilt, and the probeCache short-circuit means it would
not even execute during the 30s window where the misroute happens.

* chore(deps): bump go-processmanager, assert real backend termination

go-processmanager wrote Process.PID from readPID() with no synchronization
while its own monitor goroutine cleared the same field on exit, so a bare
Run()+Stop() tripped the race detector without any concurrent access from
the caller. LocalAI hit this on every backend stop.

Upstream fixed it in a94e2b7 by guarding PID with a mutex and adding
CurrentPID() as a race-safe accessor. The exported field was kept to avoid
a breaking change but is now deprecated: a direct read still races the
monitor. No tag carries the fix yet, so pin the pseudo-version.

GetGRPCPID reads through CurrentPID() instead of the field. The accessor
returns the same string under an RLock, so the empty-PID and strconv error
paths are unchanged; it is the only direct field read in the tree.

With the race gone, the Free-timeout spec no longer has to leave its
fixture process unstarted. It now runs a real child and asserts the child
genuinely exits, which is exactly what the earlier workaround gave up: the
spec could show the stop was reached and the slot released, but not that
SIGTERM ever landed. Termination is observed through Done(), which closes
only once the library has waited on the child. The pidfile-based liveness
helpers cannot serve here, because Stop() deletes the pidfile while
releasing the handle and so reports "not alive" even if no signal was sent.

Richard Palethorpe 1f9fda7138 fix(backends): refuse foreign model loads in opus and local-store (#10769)
When a model config has no explicit backend, the model loader greedily
probes every installed backend and binds to the first Load that
succeeds. opus and local-store were the only in-tree backends with no
model artefact to validate, so they accepted anything — an LLM
installed after them could silently bind to the audio codec or the
vector store and then fail at inference with "unimplemented"
(see #9287).

opus now accepts only its own name (what the realtime WebRTC path
sends) or none. local-store namespaces are arbitrary (router caches,
biometrics, user-named stores), so core's StoreBackend now marks
genuine store loads with a store:// prefix on the gRPC model name and
the backend refuses names without it; core and backend ship from the
same release, so the convention upgrades in lockstep.

Also repair the bit-rotted 'make test-stores' bootstrap (the suite
never registered external backends, so BACKENDS_PATH was dead weight)
and add the Load-validation rule to the adding-backends checklist.

LocalAI [bot]andEttore Di Giacinto 7e8542ba32 fix(tests): make e2e backend model downloads resumable and stall-based (#10766)
The vibevoice transcription e2e hangs until the go test timeout when
the HF CDN is slow: the ASR Q4_K model is >10 GB, downloadFile capped
every curl attempt at --max-time 600 (needs a sustained ~17 MB/s to
fit), and curl's --retry restarts from byte zero, so no attempt ever
makes forward progress. This killed the job twice on PR #10764 and
previously forced skipping it on release tags (#10567).

Replace the wall-clock cap with stall detection (--speed-limit 1 MiB/s
over --speed-time 120s) and resume from the bytes already on disk with
-C -, retrying from Go because curl does not re-evaluate the resume
offset on its internal retries. Resume against the HF Xet CDN was
verified by killing a transfer mid-flight and confirming the next
invocation appended (114 MB -> 235 MB, GGUF magic intact).

Also parameterize the suite timeout (BACKEND_TEST_TIMEOUT, default
30m) and raise it to 120m for the vibevoice transcription wrapper: a
10 GB download plus 25 specs does not fit in 30m even on a good day,
and the job-level GHA timeout there is already 150m.

LocalAI [bot]andEttore Di Giacinto d7d7721eae feat(distributed): SyncedMap component + migrate finetune/quant/agent-tasks to cross-replica state (#10542)
* feat(distributed): add SyncedMap cross-replica in-memory state component

Introduce core/services/syncstate.SyncedMap[K,V]: a thread-safe in-memory map
that keeps itself consistent across frontend replicas via NATS, with an optional
pluggable durable Store and hydrate-from-source convergence.

Several features keep process-local state surfaced to the API (finetune/quant
jobs, agent tasks, model configs) and each hand-wired the same in-memory + NATS
broadcast + read-through-store legs - or forgot to, reintroducing cross-replica
staleness. SyncedMap makes that consistency a configuration choice:

- local writes mutate the map, write through the Store, then broadcast a delta;
- the apply path is memory-only and never re-publishes or re-writes the Store
  (structural echo-loop guard, mirroring galleryop.mergeStatus);
- on Start and on NATS reconnect the map re-hydrates from the source (Store, else
  Loader); an optional periodic Reconcile repairs silent drift;
- standalone mode (nil NATS client) is a strict in-memory no-op.

Reconnect re-hydrate is wired via a new *messaging.Client.OnReconnect callback,
consumed through an optional type-assertion so MessagingClient stays minimal.
Adds messaging.SubjectSyncStateDelta and a reusable testutil.FakeBus (synchronous
in-process MessagingClient with wildcard matching) for adopter tests.

Component only; service migrations follow in subsequent commits.

- Add a Store adapter (core/services/finetune/syncstore.go) over FineTuneStore,
  plus FineTuneStore.ListAll (global hydrate; per-user List kept) and an
  idempotent Upsert (create-or-update; Create alone fails on dup key).
- Writes go through SyncedMap.Set/Delete (write-through + broadcast); reads use
  List/Get. The on-disk state.json path becomes the standalone Loader, keeping
  single-node restart recovery (stale->stopped / exporting->failed fixups).
- Fold SetNATSClient/SetFineTuneStore into NewFineTuneService; app.go passes the
  distributed NATS client + store when distributed, nil otherwise.

- Store adapter (task_syncstore.go) over the existing JobPersister

  swap needs no rebuild. No new persister methods required.
- Task reads -> SyncedMap.List/Get; create/update -> Set (write-through +
  broadcast); delete -> Delete. The file persister now owns its own task set so
  the write-through path does not re-enter the SyncedMap lock (deadlock guard).
- The distributed NATS client is not available at construction (start() precedes
  initDistributed), so it is injected via SetTaskSyncNATS, which rebuilds the
  still-empty map before Start/hydrate. Wired at the main, restart, and per-user
  (UserServicesManager) distributed sites.

* test(distributed): e2e two-replica SyncedMap sync over real NATS + Postgres

Adds the real-infrastructure counterpart to the fake-bus unit tests, in the
existing distributed e2e suite (testcontainers NATS + PostgreSQL). Two SyncedMap
instances stand in for two frontend replicas - each with its OWN NATS connection
to a shared server and a SHARED Postgres store (the distributed-mode invariant) -
and assert, over the wire:

- a create on replica A is observed by replica B;
- an update and a delete propagate A -> B (delete prunes, which a reload cannot);
- a late-joining replica recovers a job it never received a delta for, via store
  hydrate on Start (the at-most-once gap a fake bus cannot exercise);
- a local Set is written through to the shared Postgres store.

LocalAI [bot]andEttore Di Giacinto 69c16481c8 fix(test): update e2e UpdateProgress calls for new cancellable arg (#10460)
PR #10454 added a `cancellable bool` parameter to GalleryStore.UpdateProgress
but missed two callers under tests/e2e/distributed, breaking the build on
master (golangci-lint and tests-e2e-backend both failed to compile with
"not enough arguments in call to ... UpdateProgress").

Pass cancellable=true (both ops are downloading installs, which are
cancellable) and assert the flag is persisted, exercising the new behavior.

Richard Palethorpe 63bcbf6c12 fix(pii): post-merge review fixes + live NER e2e for the privacy-filter tier (#10401)
* fix(pii): post-merge review fixes + live NER e2e for the privacy-filter tier

Follow-up to the NER tier engine (#10360), already on master. This carries
only the incremental review fixes and tests that postdate that merge — the
feature itself is not re-introduced.

Review fixes:
- openai_completion.go: remove the dead `elem >= 0` conjunct in applyAnyText
  (the `elem < 0` guard above already returns).
- application.go: collapse ResolvePIIPolicy's inline re-implementation of
  PIIIsEnabled to a single cfg.PIIIsEnabled() call (sole source of the
  "explicit pii.enabled wins, else cloud-proxy default" rule) and return true
  past the !enabled guard where it is provable.
- pattern.go: hoist the triple `appConfig != nil && EnableTracing` check in
  patternDetector.Detect into one local.
- grammar.go: MaxQuantifier was 4096, but Go's regexp/syntax rejects repeat
  bounds above 1000 at Parse time, so walk()'s {n,m} guard could never fire —
  dead code shadowed by the parser. Lower it to 512 so a bound in (512,1000]
  is rejected here with an actionable error; >1000 still fails closed via
  Parse. Specs pin the relationship so the guard can't silently revert.
- PatternListEditor.jsx: clamp a directly-typed negative min_len to >=0 and
  force the DOM value back when clamping (min={0} only constrained the spinner,
  so a negative reached saved config and silently disabled the length filter).

Tests:
- piipattern_test.go: MaxQuantifier guard specs (must stay live, not dead).
- model-config.spec.js: assert the min_len clamp, and that entity_actions
  collapses a duplicate group to a single row (map semantics; regression guard
  against emitting an array that drops a row on save).
- tests/e2e-backends: token_classify capability driving the TokenClassify gRPC
  RPC against the backend image, asserting byte-correct, UTF-8 rune-aligned
  spans (entity.Text == text[start:end]) at threshold 0. Verified on CPU via
  `make test-extra-backend-privacy-filter` (3/3 specs).
- Makefile: test-extra-backend-privacy-filter wrapper.
- tests/e2e: e2e_pii_ner_test.go drives /api/pii/analyze + /api/pii/redact
  (mask + block) through the full HTTP -> detector -> redactor path; gated on
  PII_NER_MODEL_GGUF so the default suite is unaffected.
- .github/workflows/tests-pii-ner-e2e.yml: path-filtered / nightly CI job
  running the container harness on CPU.

* feat(gallery): add privacy-filter-nemotron (f16 + q8)

GGUF conversions of OpenMed/privacy-filter-nemotron — a fine-grained English
PII token-classifier (55 categories / 221 BIOES classes), fine-tuned from
openai/privacy-filter on NVIDIA's Nemotron-PII dataset. Sibling to the existing
privacy-filter-multilingual entry, trading language breadth for category depth.

- privacy-filter-nemotron: F16 reference artifact (~2.8 GB).
- privacy-filter-nemotron-q8: Q8_0 quant (~1.64 GB) for RAM-constrained / edge
  use; description notes the size/speed tradeoff and to validate on your own
  data (a single dropped span is a PII leak).

Both run on the privacy-filter backend with known_usecases [token_classify] and
a default mask policy (min_score 0.5); operators add per-category entity_actions
as needed. sha256s taken from the HF repo's LFS object ids.

Active sidebar item is now a tint-only treatment (accent text + tinted

* refactor(ui): declutter Home - discoverable + dismissable API, vertical balance

Home felt overloaded and top-heavy. Three changes from review:
- The API endpoint catalog (12 endpoints) is collapsed by default behind a
  "Browse the API" disclosure; only the base URL + copy stay visible, so the
  catalog is discoverable without dominating the page.
- The whole connect card is dismissable (x): dismissing unmounts it so the
  vertical space is recovered, and the choice is remembered (localStorage).
- .home-page now fills its column and vertically centers its content when
  there is slack, so sparse states (no models / card dismissed) read as a
  balanced launcher instead of content jammed at the top. Overflow-safe:
  tall content flows from the top and scrolls.

Adds connect.browse / connect.hide / connect.dismiss i18n keys to all locales.

Also fix a navigation scroll bug: the default layout uses the document as its

VoiceVisualizer is self-contained: it builds its own AudioContext + analysers
from the output <audio> stream (speaking) and the mic stream (listening) so it
does not touch the existing WebRTC/diagnostics graph. Bars are status-tinted
(idle/connected/listening/speaking/error) and animate with a gentle idle wave
when not connected. Live mic/output animation is exercised on a real session.

Richard Palethorpe 3fa7b2955c feat(pii): NER tier engine — privacy-filter.cpp backend + NER-centric PII filter (#10360)
Squashed feat/pii-ner-tier-engine rebased onto master (was 45 commits; see
backup/pii-ner-tier-engine-prerebase). Net change:

- privacy-filter.cpp: standalone GGML engine for the openai-privacy-filter
  PII/NER token classifier, wired as a LocalAI gRPC backend (CPU/CUDA/Vulkan).
  TokenClassify moves off the patched llama.cpp path onto this backend.
- PII filter reworked to be NER-centric (encoder/NER detection tier scanning
  whole conversations as one document), with a recreated bounded restricted-
  regex secret-matching pattern detector tier alongside it (per-model
  pii_detection.builtins / .patterns + core/services/routing/piipattern).
- Detection labelled by source (ner vs pattern); backend trace / confidence /
  debug observability; analyze/redact exposed as a synchronous API.
- Instance-wide default detector policy + per-usecase default-on; request
  filtering extended to completions, embeddings, edits & Ollama.
- React UI: NER-centric PII editor, detector-models table, pattern/builtins
  editor, middleware default-policy UI.
- Gallery: privacy-filter-multilingual token-classify model + NER install
  filter; token_classify known_usecase; batch sized to context for NER models.
  privacy-filter backend registered in the backend gallery (cpu/vulkan/cuda-13
  meta + image entries with a capabilities map) matching its CI matrix jobs,
  and an /import-model auto-detect importer (PrivacyFilterImporter, narrow
  privacy-filter GGUF detection) replacing the prior pref-only registration.

Reconciled against master's independent evolution:

- Dropped master's PIIPatternOverrides feature (global-pattern runtime
  overrides + /api/pii/patterns API + runtime_settings.json persistence). The
  per-model NER + pattern-detector design supersedes it; it was built on the
  global redactor pattern set this branch replaced.
- Reverted the llama.cpp Score carry-patch (0006-server-task-type-score):
  removed the patch and restored master's grpc-server.cpp Score RPC (direct
  llama_decode, slot-loop bypass) and LLAMA_VERSION pin, plus master's
  model_config validation forbidding score + chat/completion/embeddings on
  llama-cpp. token_classify is unaffected (it runs on the privacy-filter
  backend, not llama-cpp).

* test(http): e2e guard pinning chat_template_kwargs forwarded to gRPC

Adds an ECHO_PREDICT_METADATA marker to the mock-backend that echoes the
received PredictOptions.Metadata, and an app_test.go spec that drives a real
/v1/chat/completions request (model chat_template_kwargs + per-request metadata
override) and asserts the exact metadata + chat_template_kwargs blob the REST
layer forwards to gRPC. Locks the REST->gRPC contract against regressions. Issue #10329.

* test(config): grandfather chat_template_kwargs in registry coverage

chat_template_kwargs is a free-form map[string]any (like engine_args, already
on the list), not a scalar the config UI registry can surface, so it is exempt
from the registry-entry requirement. Fixes the TestAllFieldsHaveRegistryEntries
failure introduced by the new field. Issue #10329.

LocalAI [bot]andEttore Di Giacinto 4d3d54d61b test(e2e): live-server voice-recognition gate test (#10324)
Add mock-backend VoiceEmbed/VoiceVerify (deterministic DC-offset speaker
discrimination) and a verify-mode gated realtime pipeline, then drive the
real HTTP/WS stack: an authorized speaker reaches response.done while an
unauthorized one is dropped before the LLM with a speaker_not_authorized
event.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Scoring decodes the whole prompt+candidate in a single llama_decode and
reads one logit row per candidate token. The vendored llama.cpp server
caps causal output rows at n_parallel, so the default of 1 aborts with
GGML_ASSERT(n_outputs_max <= cparams.n_outputs_max) on multi-token route
labels. Set options: [parallel:64] on both arch-router quant entries to
lift the cap; kv_unified (the grpc-server default) keeps the full context
per sequence, so this does not split the KV cache.
