chore: Security hardening (#9719)
* fix(http): close 0.0.0.0/[::] SSRF bypass in /api/cors-proxy The CORS proxy carried its own private-network blocklist (RFC 1918 + a handful of IPv6 ranges) instead of using the same classification as pkg/utils/urlfetch.go. The hand-rolled list missed 0.0.0.0/8 and ::/128, both of which Linux routes to localhost — so any user with FeatureMCP (default-on for new users) could reach LocalAI's own listener and any other service bound to 0.0.0.0:port via: GET /api/cors-proxy?url=http://0.0.0.0:8080/... GET /api/cors-proxy?url=http://[::]:8080/... Replace the custom check with utils.IsPublicIP (Go stdlib IsLoopback / IsLinkLocalUnicast / IsPrivate / IsUnspecified, plus IPv4-mapped IPv6 unmasking) and add an upfront hostname rejection for localhost, *.local, and the cloud metadata aliases so split-horizon DNS can't paper over the IP check. The IP-pinning DialContext is unchanged: the validated IP from the single resolution is reused for the connection, so DNS rebinding still cannot swap a public answer for a private one between validate and dial. Regression tests cover 0.0.0.0, 0.0.0.0:PORT, [::], ::ffff:127.0.0.1, ::ffff:10.0.0.1, file://, gopher://, ftp://, localhost, 127.0.0.1, 10.0.0.1, 169.254.169.254, metadata.google.internal.

Subsequent code that operated on filePath (a backend launcher, a YAML loader, a re-download that finds the file already present and skips) would consume the attacker-supplied bytes. Reorder: verify the streamed hash first, remove the .partial on mismatch, then rename. The streamed hash is computed during io.Copy so no second read is needed. While here, raise the empty-SHA case from a Debug log to a Warn so "this download had no integrity check" is visible at the default log level. Backend installs currently pass through with no digest; the warning makes that footprint observable without changing behaviour. Regression test asserts os.IsNotExist on the destination after a deliberate SHA mismatch.

With LOCALAI_ADMIN_EMAIL set, an attacker who could register on the configured OIDC IdP under that email (some IdPs accept self-supplied unverified emails) inherited admin role: - first login: AssignRole(tx, email, adminEmail) → RoleAdmin - re-login: MaybePromote(db, user, adminEmail) → flip to RoleAdmin Add EmailVerified to oauthUserInfo, parse email_verified from the OIDC claims (default false on absence so an IdP that omits the claim cannot short-circuit the gate), and substitute "" for the role-decision email when verified=false via emailForRoleDecision. The user record still stores the unverified email for display. GitHub's path defaults EmailVerified=true: GitHub only returns a public profile email after verification, and fetchGitHubPrimaryEmail explicitly filters to Verified=true. Regression tests cover both the helper contract and integration with AssignRole, including the bootstrap "first user" branch that would otherwise mask the gate. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-opus-4-7 [Claude Code] Signed-off-by: Richard Palethorpe <io@richiejp.com> * feat(cli): refuse public bind when no auth backend is configured When neither an auth DB nor a static API key is set, the auth middleware passes every request through. That is fine for a developer laptop, a home LAN, or a Tailnet — the network itself is the trust boundary. It is not fine on a public IP, where every model install, settings change, and admin endpoint becomes reachable from the internet. Refuse to start in that exact configuration. Loopback, RFC 1918, RFC 4193 ULA, link-local, and RFC 6598 CGNAT (Tailscale's default range) all count as trusted; wildcard binds (`:port`, `0.0.0.0`, `[::]`) are accepted only when every host interface is in one of those ranges. Hostnames are resolved and treated as trusted only when every answer is. A new --allow-insecure-public-bind / LOCALAI_ALLOW_INSECURE_PUBLIC_BIND flag opts out for deployments that gate access externally (a reverse proxy enforcing auth, a mesh ACL, etc.). The error message lists this plus the three constructive alternatives (bind a private interface, enable --auth, set --api-keys). The interface enumeration goes through a package-level interfaceAddrsFn var so tests can simulate cloud-VM, home-LAN, Tailscale-only, and enumeration-failure topologies without poking at the real network stack.

The chat route is FeatureChat-gated (default-on), and the assistant's in-process MCP server can install/delete models and edit configs — the wrong handler change would silently turn the LLM into a confused deputy. Extract the gate into requireAssistantAccess(c, authEnabled) and pin its behaviour: auth disabled is a no-op, unauthenticated is 403, RoleUser is 403, RoleAdmin and the synthetic legacy-key admin are admitted. No behaviour change in the production path. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-opus-4-7 [Claude Code] Signed-off-by: Richard Palethorpe <io@richiejp.com> * test(http): assert every API route is auth-classified The auth middleware classifies path prefixes (/api/, /v1/, /models/, etc.) as protected and treats anything else as a static-asset passthrough. A new endpoint shipped under a brand-new prefix — or a new path that simply isn't on the prefix allowlist — would be reachable anonymously. Walk every route registered by API() with auth enabled and a fresh in-memory database (no users, no keys), and assert each API-prefixed route returns 401 / 404 / 405 to an anonymous request. Public surfaces (/api/auth/*, /api/branding, /api/node/* token-authenticated routes, /healthz, branding asset server, generated-content server, static assets) are explicit allowlist entries with comments justifying them. Build-tagged 'auth' so it runs against the SQLite-backed auth DB (matches the existing auth suite).

A regression there is the difference between "regular user reads their own data" and "regular user reads anyone's data via ?user_id=victim". Lock in the contract: - effectiveUserID ignores ?user_id= for unauthenticated and RoleUser - effectiveUserID honours it for RoleAdmin and ProviderAgentWorker - wantsAllUsers requires admin AND the literal "true" string - canImpersonateUser is admin OR agent-worker, never plain RoleUser No production change — this commit only adds tests.

Assisted-by: Claude:claude-opus-4-7 [Claude Code] Signed-off-by: Richard Palethorpe <io@richiejp.com> * fix(http): redact secrets from trace buffer and distribution-token logs The /api/traces buffer captured Authorization, Cookie, Set-Cookie, and API-key headers verbatim from every request when tracing was enabled. The endpoint is admin-only but the buffer is reachable via any heap-style introspection and the captured tokens otherwise outlive the request. Strip those header values at capture time. Body redaction is left to a follow-up — the prompts are usually the operator's own and JSON-walking is invasive. Distribution tokens were also logged in plaintext from core/explorer/discovery.go; logs forward to syslog/journald and outlive the token. Redact those to a short prefix/suffix instead. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-opus-4-7 [Claude Code] Signed-off-by: Richard Palethorpe <io@richiejp.com> * feat(auth): rate-limit OAuth callbacks separately from password endpoints The shared 5/min/IP limit on auth endpoints is right for password-style flows but too tight for OAuth callbacks: corporate SSO funnels many real users through one outbound IP and would trip the limit. Add a separate 60/min/IP limiter for /api/auth/{github,oidc}/callback so callbacks are bounded against floods without breaking shared-IP deployments. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-opus-4-7 [Claude Code] Signed-off-by: Richard Palethorpe <io@richiejp.com> * feat(gallery): verify backend tarball sha256 when set in gallery entry GalleryBackend gained an optional sha256 field; the install path now threads it through to the existing downloader hash-verify (which already streams, verifies, and rolls back on mismatch). Galleries without sha256 keep working; the empty-SHA path still emits the existing "downloading without integrity check" warning. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-opus-4-7 [Claude Code] Signed-off-by: Richard Palethorpe <io@richiejp.com> * test(http): pin CSRF coverage on multipart endpoints The CSRF middleware in app.go is global (e.Use) so it covers every multipart upload route — branding assets, fine-tune datasets, audio transforms, agent collections. Pin that contract: cross-site multipart POSTs are rejected; same-origin / same-site / API-key clients are not. Also pins the SameSite=Lax fallback path the skipper relies on when Sec-Fetch-Site is absent. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-opus-4-7 [Claude Code] Signed-off-by: Richard Palethorpe <io@richiejp.com> * feat(http): XSS hardening — CSP headers, safe href, base-href escape, SVG sandbox Several closely related XSS-prevention changes spanning the SPA shell, the React UI, and the branding asset server: - New SecurityHeaders middleware sets CSP, X-Content-Type-Options, X-Frame-Options, and Referrer-Policy on every response. The CSP keeps script-src permissive because the Vite bundle relies on inline + eval'd scripts; tightening that requires moving to a nonce-based policy. - The <base href> injection in the SPA shell escaped attacker-controllable Host / X-Forwarded-Host headers — a single quote in the host header broke out of the attribute. Pass through SecureBaseHref (html.EscapeString). - Three React sinks rendering untrusted content via dangerouslySetInnerHTML switch to text-node rendering with whiteSpace: pre-wrap: user message bodies in Chat.jsx and AgentChat.jsx, and the agent activity log in AgentChat.jsx. The hand-rolled escape on the agent user-message variant is replaced by the same plain-text path. - New safeHref util collapses non-allowlisted URI schemes (most importantly javascript:) to '#'. Applied to gallery `<a href={url}>` links in Models / Backends / Manage and to canvas artifact links — these come from gallery JSON or assistant tool calls and must be treated as untrusted. - The branding asset server attaches a sandbox CSP plus same-origin CORP to .svg responses. The React UI loads logos via <img>, but the same URL is also reachable via direct navigation; this prevents script execution if a hostile SVG slipped past upload validation. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-opus-4-7 [Claude Code] Signed-off-by: Richard Palethorpe <io@richiejp.com> * feat(http): bound HTTP server with read-header and idle timeouts A net/http server with no timeouts is trivially Slowloris-able and leaks idle keep-alive connections. Set ReadHeaderTimeout (30s) to plug the slow-headers attack and IdleTimeout (120s) to cap keep-alive sockets. ReadTimeout and WriteTimeout stay at 0 because request bodies can be multi-GB model uploads and SSE / chat completions stream for many minutes; operators who need tighter per-request bounds should terminate slow clients at a reverse proxy. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-opus-4-7 [Claude Code] Signed-off-by: Richard Palethorpe <io@richiejp.com> * test(auth): pin PUT /api/auth/profile field-tampering contract The handler uses an explicit local body struct (only name and avatar_url) plus a gorm Updates(map) with a column allowlist, so an attacker posting {"role":"admin","email":"...","password_hash":"..."} can't mass-assign those fields. Lock that down with a regression test so a future "let's just c.Bind(&user)" refactor breaks loudly. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-opus-4-7 [Claude Code] Signed-off-by: Richard Palethorpe <io@richiejp.com> * fix(services): strip directory components from multipart upload filenames UploadDataset and UploadToCollectionForUser took the raw multipart file.Filename and joined it into a destination path. The fine-tune upload was incidentally safe because of a UUID prefix that fused any leading '..' to a literal segment, but the protection is fragile. UploadToCollectionForUser handed the filename to a vendored backend without sanitising at all. Strip to filepath.Base at both boundaries and reject the trivial unsafe values ("", ".", "..", "/"). Assisted-by: Claude:claude-opus-4-7 [Claude Code] Signed-off-by: Richard Palethorpe <io@richiejp.com> * fix(react-ui): validate persisted MCP server entries on load localStorage is shared across same-origin pages; an XSS that lands once can poison persisted MCP server config to attempt header injection or to feed a non-http URL into the fetch path on subsequent loads. Validate every entry: types must match, URL must parse with http(s) scheme, header keys/values must be control-char-free. Drop anything that doesn't fit. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-opus-4-7 [Claude Code] Signed-off-by: Richard Palethorpe <io@richiejp.com> * fix(http): close X-Forwarded-Prefix open redirect The reverse-proxy support concatenated X-Forwarded-Prefix into the redirect target without validation, so a forged header value of "//evil.com" turned the SPA-shell redirect helper at /, /browse, and /browse/* into a 301 to //evil.com/app. The path-strip middleware had the same shape on its prefix-trailing-slash redirect. Add SafeForwardedPrefix at the middleware boundary: must start with a single '/', no protocol-relative '//' opener, no scheme, no backslash, no control characters. Apply at both consumers; misconfig trips the validator and the header is dropped.

An operator who flipped the strict-CORS feature flag without populating the list got the opposite of what they asked for. Echo never sets Allow-Credentials: true so this isn't directly exploitable (cookies aren't sent under wildcard CORS), but the misconfiguration trap is worth closing. Skip the registration and warn. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-opus-4-7 [Claude Code] Signed-off-by: Richard Palethorpe <io@richiejp.com> * feat(auth): zxcvbn password strength check with user-acknowledged override The previous policy was len < 8, which let through "Password1" and the rest of the credential-stuffing corpus. LocalAI has no second factor yet, so the bar needs to sit higher. Add ValidatePasswordStrength using github.com/timbutler/zxcvbn (an actively-maintained fork of the trustelem port; v1.0.4, April 2024): - min 12 chars, max 72 (bcrypt's truncation point) - reject NUL bytes (some bcrypt callers truncate at the first NUL) - require zxcvbn score >= 3 ("safely unguessable, ~10^8 guesses to break"); the hint list ["localai", "local-ai", "admin"] penalises passwords built from the app's own branding zxcvbn produces false positives sometimes (a strong-looking password that happens to match a dictionary word) and operators occasionally need to set a known-weak password (kiosk demos, CI rigs). Add an acknowledgement path: PasswordPolicy{AllowWeak: true} skips the entropy check while still enforcing the hard rules. The structured PasswordErrorResponse marks weak-password rejections as Overridable so the UI can surface a "use this anyway" checkbox. Wired through register, self-service password change, and admin password reset on both the server and the React UI. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-opus-4-7 [Claude Code] Signed-off-by: Richard Palethorpe <io@richiejp.com> * fix(react-ui): drop HTML5 minLength on new-password inputs minLength={12} on the new-password input let the browser block the form submit silently before any JS or network call ran. The browser focused the field, showed a brief native tooltip, and that was that — no toast, no fetch, no clue. Reproducible by typing fewer than 12 chars on the second password change of a session. The JS-level length check in handleSubmit already shows a toast and the server rejects with a structured error, so the HTML5 attribute was redundant defence anyway. Drop it. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-opus-4-7 [Claude Code] Signed-off-by: Richard Palethorpe <io@richiejp.com> * fix(react-ui): bundle Geist fonts locally instead of fetching from Google The new CSP correctly refused to apply styles from fonts.googleapis.com because style-src is locked to 'self' and 'unsafe-inline'. Loosening the CSP would defeat its purpose; the right fix is to stop reaching out to a third-party CDN for fonts on every page load. Add @fontsource-variable/geist and @fontsource-variable/geist-mono as npm deps and import them once at boot. Drop the <link rel="preconnect"> and external stylesheet from index.html. Side benefit: no third-party tracking via Referer / IP on every UI load, no failure mode when offline / behind a captive portal. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-opus-4-7 [Claude Code] Signed-off-by: Richard Palethorpe <io@richiejp.com> * fix(react-ui): refresh i18n strings to reflect 12-char password minimum The translations still said "at least 8 characters" everywhere — the client-side toast on a too-short password change told the user the wrong floor. Update tooShort and newPasswordPlaceholder / newPasswordDescription across all five locales (en, es, it, de, zh-CN) to match the real ValidatePasswordStrength rule. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-opus-4-7 [Claude Code] Signed-off-by: Richard Palethorpe <io@richiejp.com> * feat(auth): make password length-floor overridable like the entropy check The 12-char minimum was a policy choice, not a technical invariant — only "non-empty", "<= 72 bytes", and "no NUL bytes" are real bcrypt constraints. Treating length-12 as a hard rule was inconsistent with the entropy check (already overridable) and friction for use cases where the account is just a name on a session, not a security boundary (single-user kiosk, CI rig, lab demo). Restructure ValidatePasswordStrength: - Hard rules (always enforced): non-empty, <= MaxPasswordLength, no NUL byte - Policy rules (skipped when AllowWeak=true): length >= 12, zxcvbn score >= 3 PasswordError now marks password_too_short as Overridable too. The React forms generalised from `error_code === 'password_too_weak'` to `overridable === true`, and the JS-side preflight length checks were removed (server is source of truth, returns the same checkbox flow).

fix(distributed): split NATS backend.upgrade off install + dedup loads (#9717)
* feat(messaging): add backend.upgrade NATS subject + payload types
Splits the slow force-reinstall path off backend.install so it can run on
its own subscription goroutine, eliminating head-of-line blocking between
routine model loads and full gallery upgrades.
Wire-level Force flag on BackendInstallRequest is kept for one release as
the rolling-update fallback target; doc note marks it deprecated.

* feat(distributed/worker): add per-backend mutex helper to backendSupervisor
Different backend names lock independently; same backend serializes. This
is the synchronization primitive used by the upcoming concurrent install
handler — without it, wrapping the NATS callback in a goroutine would
race the gallery directory when two requests target the same backend.

Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io>
* fix(distributed/worker): run backend.install handler in a goroutine
NATS subscriptions deliver messages serially on a single per-subscription
goroutine. With a synchronous install handler, a multi-minute gallery
download would head-of-line-block every other install request to the
same worker — manifesting upstream as a 5-minute "nats: timeout" on
unrelated routine model loads.
The body now runs in its own goroutine, with a per-backend mutex
(lockBackend) protecting the gallery directory from concurrent operations
on the same backend. Different backend names install in parallel.
Backward-compat: req.Force=true is still honored here, so an older master
that hasn't been updated to send on backend.upgrade keeps working.

Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io>
* feat(distributed/worker): subscribe to backend.upgrade as a separate path
Slow force-reinstall now lives on its own NATS subscription, so a
multi-minute gallery pull cannot head-of-line-block the routine
backend.install handler on the same worker. Same per-backend mutex
guards both — concurrent install + upgrade for the same backend
serialize at the gallery directory; different backends are independent.
upgradeBackend stops every live process for the backend, force-installs
from gallery, and re-registers. It does not start a new process — the
next backend.install will spawn one with the freshly-pulled binary.

* feat(distributed): add UpgradeBackend on NodeCommandSender; drop Force from InstallBackend
Master now sends to backend.upgrade for force-reinstall, with a
nats.ErrNoResponders fallback to the legacy backend.install Force=true
path so a rolling update with a new master + an old worker still
converges. The Force parameter leaves the public Go API surface
entirely — only the internal fallback sets it on the wire.
InstallBackend timeout drops 5min -> 3min (most replies are sub-second
since the worker short-circuits on already-running or already-installed).
UpgradeBackend timeout is 15min, sized for real-world Jetson-on-WiFi
gallery pulls.
Updates the admin install HTTP endpoint
(core/http/endpoints/localai/nodes.go) to the new signature too.
router_test.go's fakeUnloader does not yet implement the new interface
shape; Task 3.2 will catch it up before the next package-level test run.

* test(distributed): update fakeUnloader for new NodeCommandSender shape
InstallBackend lost its force bool param (Force is not part of the public
Go API anymore — only the internal upgrade-fallback path sets it on the
wire). UpgradeBackend gained a method. Fake records both call slices and
provides an installHook concurrency seam for upcoming singleflight tests.

* test(distributed): cover UpgradeBackend's new subject + rolling-update fallback
Task 3.1 changed the master to publish UpgradeBackend on the new
backend.upgrade subject; the existing UpgradeBackend tests scripted the
old install subject and so all 3 began failing as expected. Updates them
to script SubjectNodeBackendUpgrade with BackendUpgradeReply.
Adds two new specs for the rolling-update fallback:
- ErrNoResponders on backend.upgrade triggers a backend.install
Force=true retry on the same node.
- Non-NoResponders errors propagate to the caller unchanged.
scriptedMessagingClient gains scriptNoResponders (real nats sentinel) and
scriptReplyMatching (predicate-matched canned reply, used to assert that
the fallback path actually sets Force=true on the install retry).

* fix(distributed): coalesce concurrent identical backend.install via singleflight
Six simultaneous chat completions for the same not-yet-loaded model were
observed firing six independent NATS install requests, each serializing
through the worker's per-subscription goroutine and amplifying queue
depth. SmartRouter now wraps the NATS round-trip in a singleflight.Group
keyed by (nodeID, backend, modelID, replica): N concurrent identical
loads share one round-trip and one reply.
Distinct (modelID, replica) keys still fire independent calls, so
multi-replica scaling and multi-model fan-out are unaffected.
fakeUnloader gains a sync.Mutex around its recording slices to keep
concurrent test goroutines race-clean.

fix(distributed): make backend upgrade actually re-install on workers (#9708)
* fix(distributed): make backend upgrade actually re-install on workers UpgradeBackend dispatched a vanilla backend.install NATS event to every node hosting the backend. The worker's installBackend short-circuits on "already running for this (model, replica) slot" and returns the existing address — so the gallery install path was skipped, no artifact was re-downloaded, no metadata was written. The frontend's drift detection then re-flagged the same backends every cycle (installedDigest stays empty → mismatch → "Backend upgrade available (new build)") while "Backend upgraded successfully" landed in the logs at the same time. The user-visible symptom: clicking "Upgrade All" silently does nothing and the same N backends sit on the upgrade list forever. Two coupled fixes, one PR: 1. Force flag on backend.install. Add `Force bool` to BackendInstallRequest and thread it through NodeCommandSender -> RemoteUnloaderAdapter. UpgradeBackend (and the reconciler's pending-op drain when retrying an upgrade) sets force=true; routine load events and admin install endpoints keep force=false. On the worker, force=true stops every live process that uses this backend (resolveProcessKeys for peer replicas, plus the exact request processKey), skips the findBackend short-circuit, and passes force=true into gallery.InstallBackendFromGallery so the on-disk artifact is overwritten. After the gallery install completes, startBackend brings up a fresh process at the same processKey on a new port. 2. Liveness check on the fast path. installBackend's "already running" branch read getAddr without verifying the process was alive, so a gRPC backend that died without the supervisor noticing left a stale (key, addr) entry. The reconciler then dialed that address, got ECONNREFUSED, marked the replica failed, retried install — and the supervisor said "already running addr=…" again. Loop forever, exactly what we observed on a node whose llama-cpp process had died but whose supervisor record persisted. Verify s.isRunning(processKey) before trusting getAddr; if the entry is stale, stopBackendExact cleans up and we fall through to a real install. Backwards-compatible: the new Force field is omitempty, older workers ignore it (their default behavior matches force=false). The signature change on NodeCommandSender.InstallBackend is internal-only. Verified: unit tests in core/services/nodes pass (108s suite). The pre-existing core/backend build break (proto regen pending for word-level timestamps) blocks core/cli and core/http/endpoints/localai package tests but is unrelated to this change.

fix(distributed): round-robin replicas of the same model (#9695)
FindAndLockNodeWithModel previously ordered candidate replicas by in_flight ASC, available_vram DESC. The primary key is correct, but the tiebreaker meant that whenever in_flight tied — the common case at low to moderate concurrency where requests don't overlap — the node with the largest available VRAM won every pick. With autoscaling placing replicas of the same model on multiple nodes, the fattest GPU node ended up taking nearly all the load while the others sat idle. Insert last_used ASC between the two existing tiers. last_used is already refreshed inside the same transaction that increments in_flight (and by TouchNodeModel on cache hits in the router), so the "oldest-used" replica naturally rotates through the candidate set — strict round-robin without a schema change. available_vram DESC is demoted to a final tiebreaker for cold starts where last_used is identical across replicas. Placement queries (FindNodeWithVRAM, FindLeastLoadedNode, and the *FromSet variants) have the same fattest-GPU bias on tiebreakers but are higher-cost to fix consistently. Deferred to a follow-up so the routing fix can land first — for the user-observed symptom routing was the dominant cause anyway. Test: registry_test.go adds a focused spec that loads three replicas on three nodes with 24/16/8 GB VRAM and asserts each is picked at least twice across 9 in_flight-tied calls.

fix(distributed): scope Upgrade All to nodes that have the backend installed (#9678)
In distributed mode the React UI's "Upgrade All" button fanned every detected outdated backend out to every healthy backend node, including nodes that never had that backend installed. On heterogeneous clusters this surfaced as platform errors (e.g. mac-mini-m4 asked to upgrade cpu-insightface-development, which has no darwin/arm64 variant) and left forever-retrying pending_backend_ops rows. DistributedBackendManager.UpgradeBackend now queries ListBackends() first, builds the target node-ID set from SystemBackend.Nodes, and only fans out to those nodes — every per-node primitive (adapter.InstallBackend, the pending-ops queue, BackendOpResult) is unchanged. enqueueAndDrainBackendOp gains an optional targetNodeIDs allowlist; Install/Delete keep their fan-to-everyone semantics by passing nil. If no node reports the backend installed, UpgradeBackend now returns a clear "not installed on any node" error instead of producing a stuck queue. Adds Ginkgo coverage for the smart fan-out: backend on a subset of nodes goes only to those nodes; backend on no node returns the new error and never sends a NATS install request.

feat(api): add /v1/audio/diarization endpoint with sherpa-onnx + vibevoice.cpp (#9654)
* feat(api): add /v1/audio/diarization endpoint with sherpa-onnx + vibevoice.cpp
Closes #1648.
OpenAI-style multipart endpoint that returns "who spoke when". Single
endpoint instead of the issue's three-endpoint sketch (refactor /vad,
/vad/embedding, /diarization) — the typical client wants one call, and
embeddings can land later as a sibling without breaking this surface.
Response shape borrows from Pyannote/Deepgram: segments carry a
normalised SPEAKER_NN id (zero-padded, stable across the response) plus
the raw backend label, optional per-segment text when the backend bundles
ASR, and a speakers summary in verbose_json. response_format also accepts
rttm so consumers can pipe straight into pyannote.metrics / dscore.
Backends:
* vibevoice-cpp — Diarize() reuses the existing vv_capi_asr pass.
vibevoice's ASR prompt asks the model to emit
[{Start,End,Speaker,Content}] natively, so diarization is a by-product
of the same pass; include_text=true preserves the transcript per
segment, otherwise we drop it.
* sherpa-onnx — wraps the upstream SherpaOnnxOfflineSpeakerDiarization
C API (pyannote segmentation + speaker-embedding extractor + fast
clustering). libsherpa-shim grew config builders, a SetClustering
wrapper for per-call num_clusters/threshold overrides, and a
segment_at accessor (purego can't read field arrays out of
SherpaOnnxOfflineSpeakerDiarizationSegment[] directly).
Plumbing: new Diarize gRPC RPC + DiarizeRequest / DiarizeSegment /
DiarizeResponse messages, threaded through interface.go, base, server,
client, embed. Default Base impl returns unimplemented.
Capability surfaces all updated: FLAG_DIARIZATION usecase,
FeatureAudioDiarization permission (default-on), RouteFeatureRegistry
entries for /v1/audio/diarization and /audio/diarization, audio
instruction-def description widened, CAP_DIARIZATION JS symbol,
swagger regenerated, /api/instructions discovery map updated.
Tests:
* core/backend: speaker-label normalisation (first-seen → SPEAKER_NN,
per-speaker totals, nil-safety, fallback to backend NumSpeakers when
no segments).
* core/http/endpoints/openai: RTTM rendering (file-id basename, negative
duration clamping, fallback id).
* tests/e2e: mock-backend grew a deterministic Diarize that emits
raw labels "5","2","5" so the e2e suite verifies SPEAKER_NN
remapping, verbose_json speakers summary + transcript pass-through
(gated by include_text), RTTM bytes content-type, and rejection of
unknown response_format. mock-diarize model config registered with
known_usecases=[FLAG_DIARIZATION] to bypass the backend-name guard.

* fix(diarization): correct sherpa-onnx symbol name + lint cleanup
CI failures on #9654:
* sherpa-onnx-grpc-{tts,transcription} and sherpa-onnx-realtime panicked
at backend startup with `undefined symbol: SherpaOnnxDestroyOfflineSpeakerDiarizationResult`.
Upstream's actual symbol is SherpaOnnxOfflineSpeakerDiarizationDestroyResult
(Destroy in the middle, not the prefix); the rest of the diarization
surface follows the same naming pattern. The mismatched name made
purego.RegisterLibFunc fail at dlopen time and crashed the gRPC server
before the BeforeAll could probe Health, taking down every sherpa-onnx
test job — not just the diarization-related ones.
* golangci-lint flagged 5 errcheck violations on new defer cleanups
(os.RemoveAll / Close / conn.Close); wrap each in a `defer func() { _ = X() }()`
closure (matches the pattern other LocalAI files use for new code, since
pre-existing bare defers are grandfathered in via new-from-merge-base).
* golangci-lint also flagged forbidigo violations: the new
diarization_test.go files used testing.T-style `t.Errorf` / `t.Fatalf`,
which are forbidden by the project's coding-style policy
(.agents/coding-style.md). Convert both files to Ginkgo/Gomega
Describe/It with Expect(...) — they get picked up by the existing
TestBackend / TestOpenAI suites, no new suite plumbing needed.
* modernize linter: tightened the diarization segment loop to
`for i := range int(numSegments)` (Go 1.22+ idiom).
Verified locally: golangci-lint with new-from-merge-base=origin/master
reports 0 issues across all touched packages, and the four mocked
diarization e2e specs in tests/e2e/mock_backend_test.go still pass.

* fix(vibevoice-cpp): convert non-WAV input via ffmpeg + raise ASR token budget
Confirmed end-to-end against a real LocalAI instance with vibevoice-asr-q4_k
loaded and the multi-speaker MP3 sample at vibevoice.cpp/samples/2p_argument.mp3:
both /v1/audio/transcriptions and /v1/audio/diarization now succeed and
return correctly attributed speaker turns for the full clip.
Two latent issues surfaced once the diarization endpoint actually exercised
the backend with a non-trivial input:
1. vv_capi_asr only accepts WAV via load_wav_24k_mono. The previous code
passed the uploaded path straight through, so anything that wasn't
already a 24 kHz mono s16le WAV failed at the C side with rc=-8 and
the very unhelpful "vv_capi_asr failed". prepareWavInput shells out
to ffmpeg ("-ar 24000 -ac 1 -acodec pcm_s16le") in a per-call temp
dir, matching the rate the model was trained on; both AudioTranscription
and Diarize now route through it. This is the same shape sherpa-onnx
uses (utils.AudioToWav), but vibevoice needs 24 kHz rather than 16 kHz
so we don't reuse that helper.
2. The C ABI's max_new_tokens defaults to 256 when 0 is passed. That's
fine for a five-second clip but not for anything past ~10 s — vibevoice
stops mid-JSON, the parse fails, and the caller sees a hard error.
Pass a much larger budget (16 384 ≈ ~9 minutes of speech at the
model's ~30 tok/s rate); generation stops at EOS so this is a cap
rather than a target.
3. As a defensive belt-and-braces, mirror AudioTranscription's existing
"fall back to a single segment if the model emits non-JSON text"
pattern in Diarize, so partial / unusual model output never produces
a 500. This kept the endpoint usable while diagnosing (1) and (2),
and is the right behaviour to keep.

* fix(vibevoice-cpp): pass valid WAVs through directly so ffmpeg is not required at runtime
Spotted by tests-e2e-backend (1.25.x): the previous fix forced every
incoming audio file through `ffmpeg -ar 24000 ...`, which meant the
backend container — which does not ship ffmpeg — failed even for the
existing happy path where the caller already uploads a WAV. The
container-side error was:
rpc error: code = Unknown desc = vibevoice-cpp: ffmpeg convert to
24k mono wav: exec: "ffmpeg": executable file not found in $PATH
Reading vibevoice.cpp's audio_io.cpp, `load_wav_24k_mono` uses drwav and
already accepts any PCM/IEEE-float WAV at any sample rate, downmixes
multi-channel input to mono, and resamples to 24 kHz internally. So the
only inputs that genuinely need an external converter are non-WAV
formats (MP3, OGG, FLAC, ...).
Detect WAVs by RIFF/WAVE magic at bytes 0..3 / 8..11 and pass them
straight through with a no-op cleanup; everything else still goes
through ffmpeg with the same 24 kHz mono s16le target. The result:
* Container builds without ffmpeg keep working for WAV uploads
(the e2e-backends fixture is jfk.wav at 16 kHz mono s16le).
* MP3 and other non-WAV inputs still get the new ffmpeg conversion
path so the diarization endpoint stays useful.
* If the caller uploads a non-WAV but ffmpeg isn't on PATH, the
surfaced error is still descriptive enough to act on.

feat(concurrency-groups): per-model exclusive groups for backend loading (#9662)
* feat(concurrency-groups): per-model exclusive groups for backend loading Adds `concurrency_groups: [...]` to model YAML configs. Two models that share a group cannot be loaded concurrently on the same node — loading one evicts the others, reusing the existing pinned/busy/retry policy from LRU eviction. Layered design: - Watchdog (pkg/model): per-node correctness floor — on every Load(), evict any loaded model that shares a group with the requested one. Pinned skips surface NeedMore so the loader retries (and ultimately logs a clear warning), instead of silently allowing the rule to be violated. - Distributed scheduler (core/services/nodes): soft anti-affinity hint — scheduleNewModel prefers nodes that don't already host a same-group model, falling back to eviction only if every candidate has a conflict. Composes with NodeSelector at the same point in the candidate pipeline. Per-node, not cluster-wide: VRAM is a node-local resource, and two heavy models running on different nodes is fine. The ConfigLoader is wired into SmartRouter via a small ConcurrencyConflictResolver interface so the nodes package keeps a narrow surface on core/config. Refactors the inner LRU eviction body into a shared collectEvictionsLocked helper and the loader retry loop into retryEnforce(fn, maxRetries, interval), so both LRU and group enforcement share busy/pinned/retry semantics.

As a result, neither SyncPinnedModelsToWatchdog nor SyncModelGroupsToWatchdog ran at boot, so `pinned: true` and `concurrency_groups: [...]` only became effective after a settings-driven watchdog restart. Fix by adding both sync calls to initializeWatchdog.

feat: add LocalVQE backend and audio transformations UI (#9640)
feat(audio-transform): add LocalVQE backend, bidi gRPC RPC, Studio UI
Introduce a generic "audio transform" capability for any audio-in / audio-out
operation (echo cancellation, noise suppression, dereverberation, voice
conversion, etc.) and ship LocalVQE as the first backend implementation.
Backend protocol:
- Two new gRPC RPCs in backend.proto: unary AudioTransform for batch and
bidirectional AudioTransformStream for low-latency frame-by-frame use.
This is the first bidi stream in the proto; per-frame unary at LocalVQE's
16 ms hop would be RTT-bound. Wire it through pkg/grpc/{client,server,
embed,interface,base} with paired-channel ergonomics.
LocalVQE backend (backend/go/localvqe/):
- Go-Purego wrapper around upstream liblocalvqe.so. CMake builds the upstream
shared lib + its libggml-cpu-*.so runtime variants directly — no MODULE
wrapper needed because LocalVQE handles CPU feature selection internally
via GGML_BACKEND_DL.
- Sets GGML_NTHREADS from opts.Threads (or runtime.NumCPU()-1) — without it
LocalVQE runs single-threaded at ~1× realtime instead of the documented
~9.6×.
- Reference-length policy: zero-pad short refs, truncate long ones (the
trailing portion can't have leaked into a mic that wasn't recording).
- Ginkgo test suite (9 always-on specs + 2 model-gated).
HTTP layer:
- POST /audio/transformations (alias /audio/transform): multipart batch
endpoint, accepts audio + optional reference + params[*]=v form fields.
Persists inputs alongside the output in GeneratedContentDir/audio so the
React UI history can replay past (audio, reference, output) triples.
- GET /audio/transformations/stream: WebSocket bidi, 16 ms PCM frames
(interleaved stereo mic+ref in, mono out). JSON session.update envelope
for config; constants hoisted in core/schema/audio_transform.go.
- ffmpeg-based input normalisation to 16 kHz mono s16 WAV via the existing
utils.AudioToWav (with passthrough fast-path), so the user can upload any
format / rate without seeing the model's strict 16 kHz constraint.
- BackendTraceAudioTransform integration so /api/backend-traces and the
Traces UI light up with audio_snippet base64 and timing.
- Routes registered under routes/localai.go (LocalAI extension; OpenAI has
no /audio/transformations endpoint), traced via TraceMiddleware.
Auth + capability + importer:
- FLAG_AUDIO_TRANSFORM (model_config.go), FeatureAudioTransform (default-on,
in APIFeatures), three RouteFeatureRegistry rows.
- localvqe added to knownPrefOnlyBackends with modality "audio-transform".
- Gallery entry localvqe-v1-1.3m (sha256-pinned, hosted on
huggingface.co/LocalAI-io/LocalVQE).
React UI:
- New /app/transform page surfaced via a dedicated "Enhance" sidebar
section (sibling of Tools / Biometrics) — the page is enhancement, not
generation, so it lives outside Studio. Two AudioInput components
(Upload + Record tabs, drag-drop, mic capture).
- Echo-test button: records mic while playing the loaded reference through
the speakers — the mic naturally picks up speaker bleed, giving a real
(mic, ref) pair for AEC testing without leaving the UI.
- Reusable WaveformPlayer (canvas peaks + click-to-seek + audio controls)
and useAudioPeaks hook (shared module-scoped AudioContext to avoid
hitting browser context limits with three players on one page); migrated
TTS, Sound, Traces audio blocks to use it.
- Past runs saved in localStorage via useMediaHistory('audio-transform') —
the history entry stores all three URLs so clicking re-renders the full
triple, not just the output.
Build + e2e:
- 11 matrix entries removed from .github/workflows/backend.yml (CUDA, ROCm,
SYCL, Metal, L4T): upstream supports only CPU + Vulkan, so we ship those
two and let GPU-class hardware route through Vulkan in the gallery
capabilities map.
- tests-localvqe-grpc-transform job in test-extra.yml (gated on
detect-changes.outputs.localvqe).
- New audio_transform capability + 4 specs in tests/e2e-backends.
- Playwright spec suite in core/http/react-ui/e2e/audio-transform.spec.js
(8 specs covering tabs, file upload, multipart shape, history, errors).
Docs:
- New docs/content/features/audio-transform.md covering the (audio,
reference) mental model, batch + WebSocket wire formats, LocalVQE param
keys, and a YAML config example. Cross-links from text-to-audio and
audio-to-text feature pages.

fix(distributed): orchestrator resilience — auto-upgrade routing, worker bind-wait, RAG-init crash, log spam (#9657)
* fix(nodes/health): skip stale-marking already-offline nodes The health monitor re-emitted "Node heartbeat stale" + "Marking stale node offline" + MarkOffline on every cycle for nodes that were already in the offline (or unhealthy) state. For an operator-stopped node this flooded the logs with the same WARN+INFO pair every check interval. Skip the staleness branch when the node is already StatusOffline / StatusUnhealthy — the state is already what we'd write, so neither the log lines nor the DB update carry information. Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * fix(worker): wait for backend gRPC bind before replying to backend.install The backend supervisor used to wait up to 4s (20 × 200ms) for the backend's gRPC server to answer a HealthCheck, then log a warning and reply Success with the bind address anyway. On slower nodes (a Jetson Orin doing first-boot CUDA init, large CGO library load) the gRPC listener wasn't up yet, so the frontend's first LoadModel dial returned "connect: connection refused" and the operator chased a phantom network issue instead of a startup-timing one. Two changes: - Bump the readiness window to 30s. CUDA init on Orin/Thor first boot measures in seconds, not milliseconds. - On deadline-exceeded, stop the half-started process, recycle the port, and return an error with the backend's stderr tail. The frontend now gets a real failure with diagnostic context instead of a misleading ECONNREFUSED on a downstream dial. Process death during the wait window keeps its existing fast-fail path. Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * fix(distributed): route auto-upgrade through BackendManager + bump LocalAGI/LocalRecall Two distributed-mode bugs that surfaced together in the orchestrator logs: 1. Auto-upgrade always failed with "backend not found". UpgradeChecker correctly routed CheckUpgrades through the active BackendManager (so the frontend aggregates worker state), but the auto-upgrade branch right below called gallery.UpgradeBackend directly with the frontend's SystemState. In distributed mode the frontend has no backends installed locally, so ListSystemBackends returned empty and Get(name) failed for every reported upgrade. Auto-upgrade now also goes through BackendManager.UpgradeBackend, which fans out to workers via NATS. 2. Embedding-load failure on a remote node crashed the orchestrator. When RAG init lazily called NewPersistentPostgresCollection and the remote embedding worker was unreachable, LocalRecall called os.Exit(1) inside the constructor, killing the orchestrator pod. LocalRecall now returns errors instead, LocalAGI surfaces them as a nil collection, and the existing RAGProviderFromState path returns (nil, nil, false) — the same code path the agent pool already takes when no RAG is configured. The orchestrator stays up; chat requests degrade to "no RAG available" until the embedding worker recovers.

fix(distributed): honor NodeSelector in cached-replica lookup, stop empty-backend reconciler scaleups (#9652)
* fix(distributed): honor NodeSelector in cached-replica lookup, stop empty-backend reconciler scaleups
Two distinct bugs were causing tight retry loops in the distributed scheduler:
1. FindAndLockNodeWithModel ignored the model's NodeSelector. When a model
was loaded on multiple nodes and only some matched the current selector,
the function returned the lowest-in_flight node — even one the selector
excluded. Route()'s post-check then fell through to scheduleNewModel,
which targeted the matching node where the model was already at
MaxReplicasPerModel capacity. Eviction couldn't help (the only loaded
model on that node was the one being requested, and it was busy), so
every request looped through "evicting LRU" → "all models busy".
Fix: thread an optional candidateNodeIDs filter through
FindAndLockNodeWithModel. Route() resolves the selector once via a new
resolveSelectorCandidates helper and passes the matching IDs to both
the cached-replica lookup and scheduleNewModel. The same helper
replaces the inline selector block in scheduleNewModel.
2. ScheduleAndLoadModel (reconciler scale-up path) fell back to
scheduleNewModel with backendType="" when no replica had ever been
loaded for a model. The worker rejected the resulting backend.install
("backend name is empty") on every reconciler tick (~30s).
Fix: remove the broken fallback. When GetModelLoadInfo has nothing
stored, return a clear error instead of firing a doomed NATS install.
The reconciler's existing scale-up failure log surfaces it once per
tick; the model auto-replicates as soon as Route() serves it once and
stores load info.
Also downgrade the post-LoadModel-failure StopGRPC error to Debug — that
cleanup attempt usually hits "model not found" because LoadModel failed
before registering the process, and the outer "Failed to load model"
error already carries the real reason.

* test(distributed): cover selector-aware FindAndLockNodeWithModel and reconciler scaleup guard
Two regression tests for the bugs fixed in the previous commit:
1. FindAndLockNodeWithModel — registry-level integration tests verify the
candidateNodeIDs filter:
- Returns the included node even when an excluded node has lower
in_flight (the original selector-mismatch loop scenario).
- Returns not-found when the model is loaded only on excluded nodes,
forcing Route() to fall through to a fresh schedule instead of
reusing the excluded replica.
2. ScheduleAndLoadModel — mock-based test verifies the reconciler scale-up
path returns an error and does NOT fire backend.install when no replica
has been loaded yet. fakeUnloader gains an installCalls slice so this
negative assertion is direct.

An admin can install models, manage backends, edit configs and check status by chatting; the LLM calls tools like gallery_search, install_model, import_model_uri, list_installed_models, edit_model_config and surfaces the results. Same Go package powers two modes: pkg/mcp/localaitools/ NewServer(client, opts) builds an MCP server that registers the 19-tool admin catalog. The LocalAIClient interface has two impls: - inproc.Client — calls services directly (no HTTP loopback, no synthetic admin API key). Used in-process by the chat handler. - httpapi.Client — calls the LocalAI REST API. Used by the new `local-ai mcp-server --target=…` subcommand to control a remote LocalAI from a stdio MCP host. Tools and their embedded skill prompts are agnostic to which client backs them. Skill prompts are markdown files under prompts/, embedded via go:embed and assembled into the system prompt at server init. Wiring: - core/http/endpoints/mcp/localai_assistant.go — process-wide holder that spins up the in-memory MCP server once at Application start using paired net.Pipe transports, then reuses LocalToolExecutor (no fork) for every chat request that opts in. - core/http/endpoints/openai/chat.go — small branch ahead of the existing MCP block: when metadata.localai_assistant=true, defense-in-depth admin check + executor swap + system-prompt injection. All downstream tool dispatch is unchanged. - core/http/auth/{permissions,features}.go — adds FeatureLocalAIAssistant; gating happens at the chat handler entry plus admin-only `/api/settings`. - core/cli/{run.go,cli.go,mcp_server.go} — LOCALAI_DISABLE_ASSISTANT flag (runtime-toggleable via Settings, no restart), plus `local-ai mcp-server` stdio subcommand. - core/config/runtime_settings.go — `localai_assistant_enabled` runtime setting; the chat handler reads `DisableLocalAIAssistant` live at request entry. UI: - Home.jsx — prominent self-explanatory CTA card on first run ("Manage LocalAI by chatting"); collapses to a compact "Manage by chat" button in the quick-links row once used, persisted via localStorage. - Chat.jsx — admin-only "Manage" toggle in the chat header, "Manage mode" badge, dedicated empty-state copy, starter chips. - Settings.jsx — "LocalAI Assistant" section with the runtime enable toggle. - useChat.js — `localaiAssistant` flag on the chat schema; injects `metadata.localai_assistant=true` on requests when active. Distributed mode: the in-memory MCP server lives only on the head node; inproc.Client wraps already-distributed-aware services so installs propagate to workers via the existing GalleryService machinery. Documentation: `.agents/localai-assistant-mcp.md` is the contributor contract — when adding an admin REST endpoint, also add a LocalAIClient method, an inproc + httpapi impl, a tool registration, and a skill prompt update; the AGENTS.md index links to it.

This pulls them into typed constants: - pkg/mcp/localaitools/tools.go — Tool* constants for the 19 MCP tools, plus DefaultServerName. - pkg/mcp/localaitools/capability.go — typed Capability + constants for the capability tag set the LLM passes to list_installed_models. The type rides through LocalAIClient.ListInstalledModels and replaces the triplet of "embed"/"embedding"/"embeddings" with the single CapabilityEmbeddings. - pkg/mcp/localaitools/inproc/client.go — bytesPerMiB constant for the VRAMEstimate byte→MB conversion. - core/http/endpoints/mcp/tools.go — MetadataKeyLocalAIAssistant for the "localai_assistant" request-metadata key consumed by the chat handler. Tool registrations, the test catalog, the dispatch table, the validation fixtures, and the fake/stub clients all reference the constants. The embedded skill prompts under prompts/ keep their bare strings (go:embed markdown can't import Go constants); the existing TestPromptsContain SafetyAnchors guards the alignment. No behaviour change. All tests pass with -race.

A typo in any caller silently fell through to the runtime "must be 'enable' or 'disable'" check. Introduce core/services/modeladmin.Action (string alias) with ActionEnable, ActionDisable, ActionPin, ActionUnpin and a small Valid helper. The compiler now catches mismatches at every boundary; renames ripple through one source of truth. LocalAIClient.ToggleModelState/Pinned signatures change to take modeladmin.Action. The package is brand-new and unreleased so this is a free public-API tightening.

If the worker was paused or the buffer full, the chat-handler goroutine blocked forever — the LLM kept polling and the request leaked. Wrap the five sends in a sendModelOp/sendBackendOp helper that selects on ctx.Done() so a cancelled chat completion surfaces context.Canceled back to the LLM instead of hanging. Adds inproc/client_test.go with a pre-cancelled-ctx regression test on InstallModel; the helpers are shared so the same guarantee covers the other four call sites.

Hook into the existing signals.RegisterGracefulTerminationHandler chain (same pattern as core/http/endpoints/mcp/tools.go:770). - core/cli/mcp_server.go ran srv.Run with context.Background(); a Ctrl-C from the host (Claude Desktop, mcphost, npx inspector) or a SIGTERM from process supervision left the stdio loop reading from a closed pipe.

Replace with a typed *HTTPError whose Is() method honours errors.Is(err, ErrHTTPNotFound). The 500-with-"could not find" branch stays as a transitional fallback documented in Is(). Same change covers ListNodes' 404 fallback for the /api/nodes endpoint. Adds httptest tests for both 404 and the legacy 500 path, plus a direct errors.Is exposure test so external callers (the standalone stdio CLI host) can match without re-string-parsing. Also tightens prompts.SystemPrompt: panic when fs.WalkDir on the embedded FS fails. The only realistic cause is a build-time //go:embed misconfiguration; serving an empty system prompt to the LLM is much worse than crashing init.

A crash mid-write left the destination truncated and the model unloadable until manual repair. Pre-existing behaviour inherited from the original endpoint handlers — fix once now that there's a single helper. Adds writeFileAtomic: writes to a sibling temp file, chmods, syncs via Close(), then os.Rename. Same-directory temp keeps the rename atomic on the same filesystem; cleanup runs on every error path so stray temps don't accumulate. No new dependency. Applied to: - ConfigService.PatchConfig - ConfigService.EditYAML (both rename and in-place branches) - mutateYAMLBoolFlag (drives ToggleState + TogglePinned) atomic_test.go covers the happy path plus a read-only-dir failure case that asserts the original file is preserved (skipped on Windows where the chmod trick is POSIX-specific).

All five methods that used to return it are wired to modeladmin helpers since the Phase B commit; the package var is dead. - Annotate httpapi.Client.GetModelConfig as a known stub. LocalAI's /models/edit/:name returns rendered HTML, not JSON, so the standalone CLI's get_model_config tool surfaces a clear error to the LLM. A future JSON-only /api/models/config-yaml/:name endpoint is tracked in the agent contract; FIXME points at it. - Extend `.agents/localai-assistant-mcp.md` with a "Code conventions" section that documents the audit-driven rules: tool/Capability/Action constants, errors.Is over substring matching, ctx-aware channel sends, atomic writes, and graceful shutdown. Refresh the file map so it lists tools.go and capability.go and drops the removed tools_bootstrap.go. The tools_models.go diff is a comment-only change explaining why the ModelName empty-string check stays at the tool layer (consistency across LocalAIClient implementations, since the SDK schema validator only enforces presence, not non-empty).

The tests I introduced for the assistant feature used vanilla testing.T, which made them stand out and stripped the BDD structure the rest of the suite relies on. Convert every test file in the assistant scope to Ginkgo: pkg/mcp/localaitools/ dto_test.go — Describe("DTOs round-trip through JSON") prompts_test.go — Describe("SystemPrompt assembler") server_test.go — Describe("Server tool catalog"), Describe("Tool dispatch"), Describe("Tool error surfacing"), Describe("Argument validation"), Describe("Concurrent tool calls") parity_test.go — Describe("LocalAIClient parity"), hosts the suite's single RunSpecs (the file is package localaitools_test so it can import httpapi without an import cycle; Ginkgo aggregates Describes from both the internal and external test packages into one run). httpapi/client_test.go — Describe("httpapi.Client against the LocalAI admin REST surface"), Describe("ErrHTTPNotFound"), Describe("Bearer token") inproc/client_test.go — Describe("inproc.Client cancellation") core/services/modeladmin/ config_test.go — Describe("ConfigService") with sub-Describes for GetConfig, PatchConfig, EditYAML state_test.go — Describe("ConfigService.ToggleState") pinned_test.go — Describe("ConfigService.TogglePinned") atomic_test.go — Describe("writeFileAtomic") core/http/endpoints/mcp/ localai_assistant_test.go — Describe("LocalAIAssistantHolder") Each package gets a `*_suite_test.go` with the standard `RegisterFailHandler(Fail) + RunSpecs(t, "...")` boilerplate. Helpers that previously took *testing.T (newTestService, writeModelYAML, readMap, sortedStrings, sortGalleries, etc.) drop the *T receiver and use Gomega Expectations directly. tmp dirs come from GinkgoT().TempDir().

If a contributor adds an admin REST endpoint without an MCP tool, or a tool without a matching httpapi route, both surfaces silently diverge. Add a coverage test plus stronger docs: - pkg/mcp/localaitools/coverage_test.go introduces a hand-maintained toolToHTTPRoute map: every Tool* constant must list the REST endpoint the httpapi.Client hits (or "(none)" with a documented reason). Two Ginkgo specs assert the map and the published catalog stay in sync — one fails when a Tool is added without a route entry, the other fails when a route entry references a tool that no longer exists. Verified by removing the ToolDeleteModel entry locally; the test fired with a clear message pointing the contributor at the file. Deliberate non-test: we don't enumerate live admin REST routes from here. Walking the route registry requires booting Application; parsing core/http/routes/localai.go is brittle. The "new admin REST endpoint → MCP tool" direction stays a PR checklist item — see below. - AGENTS.md gets a new Quick Reference bullet that calls out the rule and points at the test by name. - .agents/api-endpoints-and-auth.md tightens the existing "Companion: MCP admin tool surface" subsection from "if useful, consider..." to "MUST be considered, with three concrete outcomes (tool added, deliberately skipped with documented reason, or forgot — which breaks the contract)".

Replace the duplicates with the canonical types so the LLM-visible wire format stays aligned with the rest of LocalAI by construction (no parallel structs to keep in sync). Removed (and the canonical type now used by the LocalAIClient interface): localaitools.Gallery → config.Gallery localaitools.GalleryModelHit → gallery.Metadata localaitools.VRAMEstimate → vram.EstimateResult Tightened scope: localaitools.Backend → kept, but reduced to {Name, Installed}. ListKnownBackends now returns []schema.KnownBackend (the canonical type already used by REST /backends/known). Kept with documented rationale: localaitools.JobStatus — galleryop.OpStatus has Error error which marshals to "{}". JobStatus is the JSON-friendly mirror. localaitools.Node — nodes.BackendNode carries gorm internals + token hash; we expose only the LLM-relevant fields. ImportModelURIRequest/Response — schema.ImportModelRequest and GalleryResponse are wire-shaped, mine are LLM-shaped (BackendPreference flat, AmbiguousBackend exposed). Side wins: - Drop bytesPerMiB; vram.EstimateResult already carries human-readable display strings (size_display, vram_display) the LLM uses directly. - Drop the handler-private vramEstimateRequest in core/http/endpoints/localai/vram.go and bind directly into modeladmin.VRAMRequest (now JSON-tagged). Both clients pass through these types now where possible (e.g. ListGalleries in inproc.Client is a one-liner returning AppConfig.Galleries; httpapi.Client.GallerySearch decodes straight into []gallery.Metadata).

Drops the now-unused net/url import from client.go since path escaping moved into routes.go alongside the path it applies to. Local-only by design: the server-side registrations in core/http/routes/localai.go remain bare strings.

feat(distributed): support multiple replicas of one model on the same node (#9583)
* feat(distributed): support multiple replicas of one model on the same node The distributed scheduler implicitly assumed `(node_id, model_name)` was unique, but the schema didn't enforce it and the worker keyed all gRPC processes by model name alone. With `MinReplicas=2` against a single worker, the reconciler "scaled up" every 30s but the registry never advanced past 1 row — the worker re-loaded the model in-place every tick until VRAM fragmented and the gRPC process died. This change introduces multi-replica-per-node as a first-class concept, with capacity-aware scheduling, a circuit breaker, and VRAM soft-reservation. Operators can declare per-node capacity via the worker flag `--max-replicas-per-model` (mirrored as auto-label `node.replica-slots=N`) or override per-node from the UI. * Schema: BackendNode gains MaxReplicasPerModel (default 1) and ReservedVRAM. NodeModel gains ReplicaIndex (composite with node_id + model_name). ModelSchedulingConfig gains UnsatisfiableUntil/Ticks for the reconciler circuit breaker. * Registry: replica_index threaded through SetNodeModel, RemoveNodeModel, IncrementInFlight, DecrementInFlight, TouchNodeModel, GetNodeModel, SetNodeModelLoadInfo and the InFlightTrackingClient. New helpers: CountReplicasOnNode, NextFreeReplicaIndex (with ErrNoFreeSlot), RemoveAllNodeModelReplicas, FindNodesWithFreeSlot, ClusterCapacityForModel, ReserveVRAM/ReleaseVRAM (atomic UPDATE with ErrInsufficientVRAM), and the unsatisfiable-flag CRUD. * Worker: processKey now `<modelID>#<replicaIndex>` so concurrent loads of the same model land on distinct ports. Adds CLI flag --max-replicas-per-model (env LOCALAI_MAX_REPLICAS_PER_MODEL, default 1) and emits the auto-label. * Router: scheduleNewModel filters candidates by free slot, allocates the replica index, and soft-reserves VRAM before installing the backend. evictLRUAndFreeNode now deletes the targeted row by ID instead of all replicas of the model on the node — fixes a latent bug where evicting one replica orphaned its siblings. * Reconciler: caps scale-up at ClusterCapacityForModel so a misconfig (MinReplicas > capacity) doesn't loop forever. After 3 consecutive ticks of capacity==0 it sets UnsatisfiableUntil for a 5m cooldown and emits a warning. ClearAllUnsatisfiable fires from Register, ApproveNode, SetNodeLabel(s), RemoveNodeLabel and UpdateMaxReplicasPerModel so a new node joining or label changes wake the reconciler immediately. scaleDownIdle removes highest-replica-index first to keep slots compact. * Heartbeat resets reserved_vram to 0 — worker is the source of truth for actual free VRAM; the reservation is only for the in-tick race window between two scheduling decisions. * Probe path (reconciler.probeLoadedModels and health.doCheckAll) now pass the row's replica_index to RemoveNodeModel so an unreachable replica doesn't orphan healthy siblings. * Admin override: PUT /api/nodes/:id/max-replicas-per-model sets a sticky override (preserved across worker re-registration). DELETE clears the override so the worker's flag applies again on next register. Required because Kong defaults the worker flag to 1, so every worker restart would have silently reverted the UI value. * React UI: always-visible slot badge on the node row (muted at default 1, accented when >1); inline editor in the expanded drawer with pencil-to-edit, Save/Cancel, Esc/Enter, "(override)" indicator when the value is admin-set, and a "Reset" button to hand control back to the worker. Soft confirm when shrinking the cap below the count of loaded replicas. Scheduling rules table gets an "Unsatisfiable until HH:MM" status badge surfacing the cooldown. * node.replica-slots filtered out of the labels strip on the row to avoid duplicating the slot badge. 23 new Ginkgo specs (registry, reconciler, inflight, health) cover: multi-replica row independence, RemoveNodeModel of one replica preserving siblings, NextFreeReplicaIndex slot allocation including ErrNoFreeSlot, capacity-gated scale-up with circuit breaker tripping and recovery on Register, scheduleDownIdle ordering, ClusterCapacity math, ReserveVRAM admission gating, Heartbeat reset, override survival across worker re-registration, and ResetMaxReplicasPerModel handing control back. Plus 8 stdlib tests for the worker processKey / CLI / auto-label. Closes the flap reproduced on Qwen3.6-35B against the nvidia-thor worker (single 128 GiB node, MinReplicas=2): the reconciler now caps the scale-up at the cluster's actual capacity instead of looping.

Changing it here makes it a sticky admin override that survives worker restarts." → "Saved values stick across worker restarts.") and the override-state copy similarly compressed. The full mechanic is no longer needed in the UI — the override pill carries the meaning and the docs cover the rest. * Node row actions migrated from an inline cluster of icon buttons (Drain / Resume / Trash) to the kebab ActionMenu used by /manage for per-row model actions, so dense Nodes tables stay clean. Approve stays as a prominent primary button — it's a stateful admission gate, not a routine action, and elevating it matches how /manage surfaces install-time decisions outside the menu. * The expanded drawer's Labels section now filters node.replica-slots out of the editable label list. The label is owned by the Capacity editor above; surfacing it again as an editable label invited confusion (the Capacity save would clobber any direct edit). Both backend and agent workers benefit — they share the row rendering path, so the action menu and label filter apply to both.

The scheduling rule form wrapped its mode toggle as two 50%-width filled buttons that competed visually with the actual primary action. * Drawer: collapse three rarely-touched config zones (Capacity, Backends, Labels) into one `<details>` "Manage" disclosure (closed by default) with small uppercase eyebrow labels for each zone instead of parallel h4 sub-headings. Loaded Models stays as the at-a-glance headline with a single-line empty hint instead of a boxed empty state. CapacityEditor renders flat (no filled background) — the Manage disclosure provides framing. * Scheduling form: replace the chunky 50%-width button-tabs with the project's existing `.segmented` control (icon + label, sized to content). Mode hint becomes a single tied line below. Fields stack vertically with helper text under inputs and a hairline divider above the right-aligned Save / Cancel. The empty drawer collapses from ~5 stacked sections (~280px tall) to two lines (~80px). The scheduling form now reads as a designed dialog instead of raw building blocks. Both surfaces now match the typographic density and weight of the rest of the admin pages.

The project already has SearchableModelSelect (used in Studio/Talk/etc.) which combines free-text search with the gallery list and accepts typed model names that aren't installed yet — useful for pre-staging a scheduling rule before the node it'll run on has finished bootstrapping.

The form's input was also a comma-separated string that operators were getting wrong. * Extract <KeyValueChips> as a fully controlled chip-builder. Parent owns the map and decides what onAdd/onRemove does — form state for the scheduling form, API calls for the live drawer Labels editor. Same visuals everywhere; one component to change when polish needs apply. * Replace the comma-separated Node Selector text input with KeyValueChips. Operators were copying syntax from docs and missing commas; the chip vocabulary makes the key=value structure self-documenting. * Add <ReplicaInput>: numeric input + quick-pick preset chips for Min/Max replicas. Picked over a slider because replica counts are exact specs derived from VRAM math (operator decision, not a fuzzy estimate). The chips give one-click access to common values (1/2/3/4 for Min, 0=no-limit/2/4/8 for Max) without the slider's special-value problem (MaxReplicas=0 is categorical, not a position on a continuum). * Drop the now-unused labelInputs state in the Nodes page (the inline label editor's per-node draft state lived there and is now owned by KeyValueChips).

All updated to pass replicaIndex=0 — these tests don't exercise multi-replica behavior, they just need to compile against the new signatures. The chip-builder tests in core/services/nodes/ already cover the multi-replica logic. * core/http/react-ui/e2e/nodes-per-node-backend-actions.spec.js — the drawer's distill refactor moved Backends inside a "Manage" <details> disclosure that's collapsed by default. The test helper expanded the node row but never opened Manage, so the per-node backend table was never in the DOM. Helper now clicks `.node-manage > summary` after expanding the row. All 100 playwright tests pass locally; tests/e2e/distributed compiles clean.

fix(distributed): worker container healthcheck always unhealthy
The Dockerfile's HEALTHCHECK probes http://localhost:8080/readyz, which is the OpenAI API server port. When the same image runs as a worker, it listens on the gRPC base port (50051) and an HTTP file transfer server on port-1 (50050) — nothing on 8080 — so docker always reports the container as unhealthy. Add unauthenticated /readyz and /healthz endpoints to the worker's HTTP file transfer server, and override HEALTHCHECK_ENDPOINT for worker-1 in the distributed compose file. Disable the healthcheck for agent-worker since it is NATS-only and exposes no HTTP server.

feat(distributed): per-node backend installation from the gallery
In distributed mode the Backends gallery used to fan every install out to every worker — fine for auto-resolving (meta) backends like llama-cpp where each node picks its own variant, but wrong for hardware-specific builds like cpu-llama-cpp that would silently land on every GPU node. Adds a node-targeted install path through the existing POST /api/nodes/:id/backends/install plumbing, with two entry points: - Backends gallery row gets a split-button in distributed mode. Auto- resolving keeps "Install on all nodes" as the primary; chevron menu opens the picker. Hardware-specific routes the primary directly to the picker — no fan-out path on the row. - Nodes-page drawer gets a "+ Add backend" button that navigates to /app/backends?target=<node-id>; the gallery scopes itself to that node (banner, single per-row install button, Reinstall/Remove for already- installed). One gallery, two scopes — no second UI to maintain. The picker (new NodeInstallPicker) shows a 3-state suitability column (Compatible / Override / Installed), an auto-expanding variant override disclosure that fires when selected nodes have no working GPU, parallel per-node installs with inline status and Retry-failed-nodes, and a mismatch confirm that names the consequence on the button itself. A 409 fan-out guard on /api/backends/apply protects CLI/Terraform/script users from the same footgun: hardware-specific installs in distributed mode now return code "concrete_backend_requires_target" with a human- readable error and a meta_alternative pointer. The gallery list payload now surfaces capabilities, metaBackendFor and per-row nodes (NodeBackendRef) so the picker and the new Nodes column have everything they need without re-walking the gallery client-side. GODEBUG=netdns=go is set on the compose services because the cgo DNS resolver follows the container's nsswitch.conf to host systemd-resolved (127.0.0.53), unreachable from inside the container; the pure-Go resolver reads /etc/resolv.conf directly and uses Docker's embedded DNS.

feat: surface distributed backend management errors (#9552)
* fix(distributed): surface per-node backend op errors to OpStatus
DistributedBackendManager.{Install,Upgrade,Delete}Backend discarded the
per-node BackendOpResult from enqueueAndDrainBackendOp with `_, err :=`.
When workers replied Success=false (e.g. an OCI image with no arm64
variant on a Jetson host), the per-node Error string was recorded in
result.Nodes[].Error but never reached the toplevel return value, so
OpStatus.Error stayed empty and the UI reported the install as
"completed" while the backend was nowhere on the cluster.
Add BackendOpResult.Err() that aggregates per-node Status=="error"
entries into a single error. Queued nodes (waiting for reconciler retry)
are deliberately not treated as failures. Wire the three callers and
DeleteBackendDetailed to call result.Err() so reply.Success=false
finally reaches OpStatus.Error → /api/backends/job/:uid → the UI.
The Delete closures had a related bug: they discarded the reply with
`_` and only checked the NATS round-trip error, so reply.Success=false
was a silent success even with the new aggregation. Check both.
Standalone mode (LocalBackendManager) already surfaces gallery errors
correctly through the same OpStatus.Error path; no change needed there.
Tests: 9 new Ginkgo specs covering all-success / all-fail with distinct
errors / mixed / all-queued / no-nodes for Install, Upgrade, Delete.

* feat(react-ui): per-node backend delete + clearer upgrade affordance
The Nodes page exposed a per-node "reinstall" button (fa-sync-alt,
tooltip "Reinstall backend") but no per-node delete, even though the
Go side has had POST /api/nodes/:id/backends/delete →
RemoteUnloaderAdapter.DeleteBackend → NATS-to-specific-node wired up
for a while. Sync icons read as "refresh data" — the action is
functionally an upgrade (re-pulls the gallery image), so the affordance
was misleading.
Per-node backend row now renders two icon buttons:
- Upgrade: btn-secondary btn-sm + fa-arrow-up, tooltip "Upgrade backend
on this node". Names both action and scope to differentiate from the
cluster-wide upgrade on the Backends page.
- Delete: btn-danger-ghost btn-sm + fa-trash, tooltip "Delete backend
from this node". Matches the node-level destructive style at the row
action column rather than the solid btn-danger of primary destructive
pages, since this is a secondary action inside a busy row.
Delete goes through the existing ConfirmDialog (danger=true) with copy
that names the backend and the node explicitly — it's a non-recoverable
op on a specific scope. Reuses nodesApi.deleteBackend(id, backend) which
already existed in the API client.
Tests: 4 new Playwright specs covering upgrade clarity (icon + tooltip),
delete button presence, confirm dialog flow with POST body assertion,
and cancel-doesn't-POST.

feat: add biometrics UI (#9524)
* feat(react-ui): add Face & Voice Recognition pages
Expose the face and voice biometrics endpoints
(/v1/face/*, /v1/voice/*) through the React UI. Each page has four
tabs driving the six endpoints per modality: Analyze (demographics
with bounding boxes / waveform segments), Compare (verify with a
match gauge and live threshold slider), Enrollment (register /
identify / forget with a top-K matches view), Embedding (raw
vector inspector with sparkline + copy).
MediaInput supports file upload plus live capture: webcam
snap-to-canvas for face, MediaRecorder -> AudioContext ->
16-bit PCM mono WAV transcode for voice (libsndfile on the
backend only handles WAV/FLAC/OGG natively).
Sidebar gets a new Biometrics section feature-gated on
face_recognition / voice_recognition; routes are wrapped in
<RequireFeature>. No new dependencies -- Font Awesome icons
picked from the Free set.

* fix(localai): accept data URI prefixes with codec/charset params
Browser MediaRecorder produces data URIs like
data:audio/webm;codecs=opus;base64,...
so the pre-';base64,' section can carry multiple parameter
segments. The `^data:([^;]+);base64,` regex in pkg/utils/base64.go
and core/http/endpoints/localai/audio.go only matched exactly one
segment, so recordings straight from the React UI's live-capture
tab failed the strip and then tripped the base64 decoder on the
leading 'data:' literal, surfacing as
"invalid audio base64: illegal base64 data at input byte 4"
Widened both regexes to `^data:[^,]+?;base64,` so any number of
';param=value' segments between the mime type and ';base64,' are
tolerated. Added a regression test covering the MediaRecorder
shape.

* fix(insightface): scope pack ONNX loading to known manifests
LocalAI's gallery extracts buffalo_* zips flat into the models
directory, which inevitably mixes with ONNX files from other
backends (opencv face engine, MiniFASNet antispoof, WeSpeaker
voice embedding) and older buffalo pack installs. Feeding those
foreign files into insightface's model_zoo.get_model() blows up
inside the router -- it assumes a 4-D NCHW input and indexes
`input_shape[2]` on tensors that aren't shaped like a face model,
raising IndexError mid-load and leaving the backend unusable.
The router's dispatch isn't amenable to per-file try/except alone
(first-file-wins picks det_10g.onnx from buffalo_l even when the
user asked for buffalo_sc -- alphabetical order happens to favour
the wrong pack). Instead, ship an explicit manifest of the
upstream v0.7 pack contents and scope the glob to that when the
requested pack is known. The manifest is small and stable; future
packs can be added alongside or fall through to the tolerance
loop, which also swallows any remaining IndexError / ValueError
from foreign files with a clear `[insightface] skipped` stderr
line for diagnostics.

* fix(speaker-recognition): extract FBank features for rank-3 ONNX encoders
Pre-exported speaker-encoder ONNX graphs come in two shapes:
rank-2 [batch, samples] -- some 3D-Speaker exports,
take raw waveform directly.
rank-3 [batch, frames, n_mels] -- WeSpeaker and most Kaldi-
lineage encoders, expect
pre-computed Kaldi FBank.
OnnxDirectEngine unconditionally fed `audio.reshape(1, -1)` --
correct for rank-2, IndexError-on-input_shape[3] on rank-3, which
surfaced to the UI as
"Invalid rank for input: feats Got: 2 Expected: 3"
Detect the input rank at session init and run Kaldi FBank
(80-dim, 25ms/10ms frames, dither=0.0, per-utterance CMN) before
the forward pass when rank>=3. All knobs are configurable via
backend options for encoders that deviate from defaults.
torchaudio.compliance.kaldi is already in the backend's
requirements (SpeechBrain pulls torchaudio in), so no new
dependency.

* fix(biometrics): isolate face and voice vector stores
Face (ArcFace, 512-D) and voice (ECAPA-TDNN 192-D / WeSpeaker
256-D) biometric embeddings were colliding inside a single
in-memory local-store instance. Enrolling one after the other
failed with
"Try to add key with length N when existing length is M"
because local-store correctly refuses to mix dimensions in one
keyspace.
The registries were constructed with `storeName=""`, which in
StoreBackend() is just a WithModel() call. But ModelLoader's
cache is keyed on `modelID`, not `model` -- so both registries
collapsed to the same `modelID=""` slot and reused the same
backend process despite looking isolated on paper.
Three complementary fixes:
1. application.go -- give each registry a distinct default
namespace ("localai-face-biometrics" /
"localai-voice-biometrics"). The comment claimed
isolation, now it's actually enforced.
2. stores.go -- pass the storeName as both WithModelID and
WithModel so the ModelLoader cache key separates
namespaces and the loader spawns distinct processes.
3. local-store/store.go -- drop the Load() `opts.Model != ""`
guard. It was there to prevent generic model-loading loops
from picking up local-store by accident, but that auto-load
path is being retired; the guard now just blocks legitimate
namespace isolation. opts.Model is treated as a tag; the
per-tuple process isolation upstream handles discrimination.
Assisted-by: Claude:Opus 4.7
* fix(gallery): stale-file cleanup and upgrade-tmp directory safety
Two related robustness fixes for backend install/upgrade:
pkg/downloader/uri.go
OCI downloads passed through
if filepath.Ext(filePath) != "" ...
filePath = filepath.Dir(filePath)
which was intended to redirect file-shaped download targets
into their parent directory for OCI extraction. The heuristic
misfires on directory-shaped paths with a dot-suffix --
gallery.UpgradeBackend uses
tmpPath = "<backendsPath>/<name>.upgrade-tmp"
and Go's filepath.Ext treats ".upgrade-tmp" as an extension.
The rewrite landed the extraction at "<backendsPath>/", which
then **overwrote the real install** (backends/<name>/) with a
flat-layout file and left a stray run.sh at the top level. The
tmp dir itself stayed empty, so the validation step that
checked "<tmpPath>/run.sh" predictably failed with
"upgrade validation failed: run.sh not found in new backend"
Every manual upgrade silently corrupted the backends tree this
way. Guard the rewrite behind "target isn't already an existing
directory" -- InstallBackend / UpgradeBackend both pre-create
the target as a directory, so they get the correct behaviour;
existing file-path callers with a genuine dot-extension still
get the parent redirect.
core/gallery/backends.go
InstallBackend's MkdirAll returned ENOTDIR when something at
the target path was already a file (legacy dev builds dropped
golang backend binaries directly at `<backendsPath>/<name>`
instead of nesting them under their own subdir). That
permanently blocked reinstall and upgrade for anyone carrying
that state, since every retry hit the same error. Detect a
pre-existing non-directory, warn, and remove it before the
MkdirAll so the fresh install can write the correct nested
layout with metadata.json + run.sh.
Assisted-by: Claude:Opus 4.7
* fix(galleryop): refresh upgrade cache after backend ops
UpgradeChecker caches the last upgrade-check result and only
refreshes on the 6-hour tick or after an auto-upgrade cycle.
Manual upgrades (POST /api/backends/upgrade/:name) go through
the async galleryop worker, which completes the upgrade
correctly but never tells UpgradeChecker to re-check -- so
/api/backends/upgrades continued to list a just-upgraded backend
as upgradeable, indistinguishable from a failed upgrade, for up
to six hours.
Add an optional `OnBackendOpCompleted func()` hook on
GalleryService that fires after every successful install /
upgrade / delete on the backend channel (async, so a slow
callback doesn't stall the queue). startup.go wires it to
UpgradeChecker.TriggerCheck after both services exist. Result:
the upgrade banner clears within milliseconds of the worker
finishing.
Assisted-by: Claude:Opus 4.7
* build: prepend GOPATH/bin to PATH for protogen-go
install-go-tools runs `go install` for protoc-gen-go and
protoc-gen-go-grpc, which writes them into `go env GOPATH`/bin.
That directory isn't on every dev's PATH, and protoc resolves
its code-gen plugins via PATH, so the immediately-following
protoc invocation fails with
"protoc-gen-go: program not found"
which in turn blocks `make build` and any
`make backends/%` target that depends on build.
Prepend `go env GOPATH`/bin to PATH for the protoc invocation
so the freshly-installed plugins are found without requiring a
shell-profile change.
Assisted-by: Claude:Opus 4.7
* refactor(ui-api): non-blocking backend upgrade handler with opcache
POST /api/backends/upgrade/:name used to send the ManagementOp
directly onto the unbuffered BackendGalleryChannel, which blocked
the HTTP request whenever the galleryop worker was busy with a
prior operation. The op also didn't show up in /api/operations,
so the Backends UI couldn't reflect upgrade progress on the
affected row.
Register the op in opcache immediately, wrap it in a cancellable
context, store the cancellation function on the GalleryService,
and push onto the channel from a goroutine so the handler
returns right away. Response gains a `jobID` field and a
`message` string so clients have a consistent handle regardless
of whether the op is queued or running.
Pairs with the OnBackendOpCompleted hook added in the galleryop
commit — together the UI sees the upgrade start, watches
progress via /api/operations, and drops the "upgradeable" flag
the moment the worker finishes.

feat(face-recognition): add insightface/onnx backend for 1:1 verify, 1:N identify, embedding, detection, analysis (#9480)
* feat(face-recognition): add insightface backend for 1:1 verify, 1:N identify, embedding, detection, analysis
Adds face recognition as a new first-class capability in LocalAI via the
`insightface` Python backend, with a pluggable two-engine design so
non-commercial (insightface model packs) and commercial-safe
(OpenCV Zoo YuNet + SFace) models share the same gRPC/HTTP surface.
New gRPC RPCs (backend/backend.proto):
* FaceVerify(FaceVerifyRequest) returns FaceVerifyResponse
* FaceAnalyze(FaceAnalyzeRequest) returns FaceAnalyzeResponse
Existing Embedding and Detect RPCs are reused (face image in
PredictOptions.Images / DetectOptions.src) for face embedding and
face detection respectively.
New HTTP endpoints under /v1/face/:
* verify — 1:1 image pair same-person decision
* analyze — per-face age + gender (emotion/race reserved)
* register — 1:N enrollment; stores embedding in vector store
* identify — 1:N recognition; detect → embed → StoresFind
* forget — remove a registered face by opaque ID
Service layer (core/services/facerecognition/) introduces a
`Registry` interface with one in-memory `storeRegistry` impl backed
by LocalAI's existing local-store gRPC vector backend. HTTP handlers
depend on the interface, not on StoresSet/StoresFind directly, so a
persistent PostgreSQL/pgvector implementation can be slotted in via a
single constructor change in core/application (TODO marker in the
package doc).
New usecase flag FLAG_FACE_RECOGNITION; insightface is also wired
into FLAG_DETECTION so /v1/detection works for face bounding boxes.
Gallery (backend/index.yaml) ships three entries:
* insightface-buffalo-l — SCRFD-10GF + ArcFace R50 + genderage
(~326MB pre-baked; non-commercial research use only)
* insightface-opencv — YuNet + SFace (~40MB pre-baked; Apache 2.0)
* insightface-buffalo-s — SCRFD-500MF + MBF (runtime download; non-commercial)
Python backend (backend/python/insightface/):
* engines.py — FaceEngine protocol with InsightFaceEngine and
OnnxDirectEngine; resolves model paths relative to the backend
directory so the same gallery config works in docker-scratch and
in the e2e-backends rootfs-extraction harness.
* backend.py — gRPC servicer implementing Health, LoadModel, Status,
Embedding, Detect, FaceVerify, FaceAnalyze.
* install.sh — pre-bakes buffalo_l + OpenCV YuNet/SFace inside the
backend directory so first-run is offline-clean (the final scratch
image only preserves files under /<backend>/).
* test.py — parametrized unit tests over both engines.
Tests:
* Registry unit tests (go test -race ./core/services/facerecognition/...)
— in-memory fake grpc.Backend, table-driven, covers register/
identify/forget/error paths + concurrent access.
* tests/e2e-backends/backend_test.go extended with face caps
(face_detect, face_embed, face_verify, face_analyze); relative
ordering + configurable verifyCeiling per engine.
* Makefile targets: test-extra-backend-insightface-buffalo-l,
-opencv, and the -all aggregate.
* CI: .github/workflows/test-extra.yml gains tests-insightface-grpc,
auto-triggered by changes under backend/python/insightface/.
Docs:
* docs/content/features/face-recognition.md — feature page with
license table, quickstart (defaults to the commercial-safe model),
models matrix, API reference, 1:N workflow, storage caveats.
* Cross-refs in object-detection.md, stores.md, embeddings.md, and
whats-new.md.
* Contributor README at backend/python/insightface/README.md.
Verified end-to-end:
* buffalo_l: 6/6 specs (health, load, face_detect, face_embed,
face_verify, face_analyze).
* opencv: 5/5 specs (same minus face_analyze — SFace has no
demographic head; correctly skipped via BACKEND_TEST_CAPS).

* fix(face-recognition): move engine selection to model gallery, collapse backend entries
The previous commit put engine/model_pack options on backend gallery
entries (`backend/index.yaml`). That was wrong — `GalleryBackend`
(core/gallery/backend_types.go:32) has no `options` field, so the
YAML decoder silently dropped those keys and all three "different
insightface-*" backend entries resolved to the same container image
with no distinguishing configuration.
Correct split:
* `backend/index.yaml` now has ONE `insightface` backend entry
shipping the CPU + CUDA 12 container images. The Python backend
bundles both the non-commercial insightface model packs
(buffalo_l / buffalo_s) and the commercial-safe OpenCV Zoo
weights (YuNet + SFace); the active engine is selected at
LoadModel time via `options: ["engine:..."]`.
* `gallery/index.yaml` gains three model entries —
`insightface-buffalo-l`, `insightface-opencv`,
`insightface-buffalo-s` — each setting the appropriate
`overrides.backend` + `overrides.options` so installing one
actually gives the user the intended engine. This matches how
`rfdetr-base` lives in the model gallery against the `rfdetr`
backend.
The earlier e2e tests passed despite this bug because the Makefile
targets pass `BACKEND_TEST_OPTIONS` directly to LoadModel via gRPC,
bypassing any gallery resolution entirely. No code changes needed.
Assisted-by: Claude:claude-opus-4-7
* feat(face-recognition): cover all supported models in the gallery + drop weight baking
Follows up on the model-gallery split: adds entries for every model
configuration either engine actually supports, and switches weight
delivery from image-baked to LocalAI's standard gallery mechanism.
Gallery now has seven `insightface-*` model entries (gallery/index.yaml):
insightface (family) — non-commercial research use
• buffalo-l (326MB) — SCRFD-10GF + ResNet50 + genderage, default
• buffalo-m (313MB) — SCRFD-2.5GF + ResNet50 + genderage
• buffalo-s (159MB) — SCRFD-500MF + MBF + genderage
• buffalo-sc (16MB) — SCRFD-500MF + MBF, recognition only
(no landmarks, no demographics — analyze
returns empty attributes)
• antelopev2 (407MB) — SCRFD-10GF + ResNet100@Glint360K + genderage
OpenCV Zoo family — Apache 2.0 commercial-safe
• opencv — YuNet + SFace fp32 (~40MB)
• opencv-int8 — YuNet + SFace int8 (~12MB, ~3x smaller, faster on CPU)
Model weights are no longer baked into the backend image. The image
now ships only the Python runtime + libraries (~275MB content size,
~1.18GB disk vs ~1.21GB when weights were baked). Weights flow through
LocalAI's gallery mechanism:
* OpenCV variants list `files:` with ONNX URIs + SHA-256, so
`local-ai models install insightface-opencv` pulls them into the
models directory exactly like any other gallery-managed model.
* insightface packs (upstream distributes .zip archives only, not
individual ONNX files) auto-download on first LoadModel via
FaceAnalysis' built-in machinery, rooted at the LocalAI models
directory so they live alongside everything else — same pattern
`rfdetr` uses with `inference.get_model()`.
Backend changes (backend/python/insightface/):
* backend.py — LoadModel propagates `ModelOptions.ModelPath` (the
LocalAI models directory) to engines via a `_model_dir` hint.
This replaces the earlier ModelFile-dirname approach; ModelPath
is the canonical "models directory" variable set by the Go loader
(pkg/model/initializers.go:144) and is always populated.
* engines.py::_resolve_model_path — picks up `model_dir` and searches
it (plus basename-in-model-dir) before falling back to the dev
script-dir. This is how OnnxDirectEngine finds gallery-downloaded
YuNet/SFace files by filename only.
* engines.py::_flatten_insightface_pack — new helper that works
around an upstream packaging inconsistency: buffalo_l/s/sc zips
expand flat, but buffalo_m and antelopev2 zips wrap their ONNX
files in a redundant `<name>/` directory. insightface's own
loader looks one level too shallow and fails. We call
`ensure_available()` explicitly, flatten if nested, then hand to
FaceAnalysis.
* engines.py::InsightFaceEngine.prepare — root-resolution order now
includes the `_model_dir` hint so packs download into the LocalAI
models directory by default.
* install.sh — no longer pre-downloads any weights. Everything is
gallery-managed now.
* smoke.py (new) — parametrized smoke test that iterates over every
gallery configuration, simulating the LocalAI install flow
(creates a models dir, fetches OpenCV files with checksum
verification, lets insightface auto-download its packs), then
runs detect + embed + verify (+ analyze where supported) through
the in-process BackendServicer.
* test.py — OnnxDirectEngineTest no longer hardcodes `/models/opencv/`
paths; downloads ONNX files to a temp dir at setUpClass time and
passes ModelPath accordingly.
Registry change (core/services/facerecognition/store_registry.go):
* `dim=0` in NewStoreRegistry now means "accept whatever dimension
arrives" — needed because the backend supports 512-d ArcFace/MBF
and 128-d SFace via the same Registry. A non-zero dim still fails
fast with ErrDimensionMismatch.
* core/application plumbs `faceEmbeddingDim = 0`, explaining the
rationale in the comment.
Backend gallery description updated to reflect that the image carries
no weights — it's just Python + engines.
Smoke-tested all 7 configurations against the rebuilt image (with the
flatten fix applied), exit 0:
PASS: insightface-buffalo-l faces=6 dim=512 same-dist=0.000
PASS: insightface-buffalo-sc faces=6 dim=512 same-dist=0.000

* fix(face-recognition): pre-fetch OpenCV ONNX for e2e target; drop stale pre-baked claim
CI regression from the previous commit: I moved OpenCV Zoo weight
delivery to LocalAI's gallery `files:` mechanism, but the
test-extra-backend-insightface-opencv target was still passing
relative paths `detector_onnx:models/opencv/yunet.onnx` in
BACKEND_TEST_OPTIONS. The e2e suite drives LoadModel directly over
gRPC without going through the gallery, so those relative paths
resolved to nothing and OpenCV's ONNXImporter failed:
LoadModel failed: Failed to load face engine:
OpenCV(4.13.0) ... Can't read ONNX file: models/opencv/yunet.onnx
Fix: add an `insightface-opencv-models` prerequisite target that
fetches the two ONNX files (YuNet + SFace) to a deterministic host
cache at /tmp/localai-insightface-opencv-cache/, verifies SHA-256,
and skips the download on re-runs. The opencv test target depends on
it and passes absolute paths in BACKEND_TEST_OPTIONS, so the backend
finds the files via its normal absolute-path resolution branch.
Also refresh the buffalo_l comment: it no longer says "pre-baked"
(nothing is — the pack auto-downloads from upstream's GitHub release
on first LoadModel, same as in CI).
Locally verified: `make test-extra-backend-insightface-opencv` passes
5/5 specs (health, load, face_detect, face_embed, face_verify).

* feat(face-recognition): add POST /v1/face/embed + correct /v1/embeddings docs
The docs promised that /v1/embeddings returns face vectors when you
send an image data-URI. That was never true: /v1/embeddings is
OpenAI-compatible and text-only by contract — its handler goes
through `core/backend/embeddings.go::ModelEmbedding`, which sets
`predictOptions.Embeddings = s` (a string of TEXT to embed) and never
populates `predictOptions.Images[]`. The Python backend's Embedding
gRPC method does handle Images[] (that's how /v1/face/register reaches
it internally via `backend.FaceEmbed`), but the HTTP embeddings
endpoint wasn't wired to populate it.
Rather than overload /v1/embeddings with image-vs-text detection —
messy, and the endpoint is OpenAI-compatible by design — add a
dedicated /v1/face/embed endpoint that wraps `backend.FaceEmbed`
(already used internally by /v1/face/register and /v1/face/identify).
Matches LocalAI's convention of a dedicated path per non-standard flow
(/v1/rerank, /v1/detection, /v1/face/verify etc.).
Response:
{
"embedding": [<dim> floats, L2-normed],
"dim": int, // 512 for ArcFace R50 / MBF, 128 for SFace
"model": "<name>"
}
Live-tested on the opencv engine: returns a 128-d L2-normalized vector
(sum(x^2) = 1.0000). Sentinel in docs updated to note /v1/embeddings
is text-only and point image users at /v1/face/embed instead.

* fix(http): map malformed image input + gRPC status codes to proper 4xx
Image-input failures on LocalAI's single-image endpoints (/v1/detection,
/v1/face/{verify,analyze,embed,register,identify}) have historically
returned 500 — even when the client was the one who sent garbage.
Classic example: you POST an "image" that isn't a URL, isn't a
data-URI, and isn't a valid JPEG/PNG — the server shouldn't claim
that's its fault.
Two helpers land in core/http/endpoints/localai/images.go and every
single-image handler is switched over:
* decodeImageInput(s)
Wraps utils.GetContentURIAsBase64 and turns any failure
(invalid URL, not a data-URI, download error, etc.) into
echo.NewHTTPError(400, "invalid image input: ...").
* mapBackendError(err)
Inspects the gRPC status on a backend call error and maps:
INVALID_ARGUMENT → 400 Bad Request
NOT_FOUND → 404 Not Found
FAILED_PRECONDITION → 412 Precondition Failed
Unimplemented → 501 Not Implemented
All other codes fall through unchanged (still 500).
Before, my 1×1 PNG error-path test returned:
HTTP 500 "rpc error: code = InvalidArgument desc = failed to decode one or both images"
After:
HTTP 400 "failed to decode one or both images"
Scope-limited to the LocalAI single-image endpoints. The multi-modal
paths (middleware/request.go, openresponses/responses.go,
openai/realtime.go) intentionally log-and-skip individual media parts
when decoding fails — different design intent (graceful degradation
of a multi-part message), not a 400-worthy failure. Left untouched.
Live-verified: every error case in /tmp/face_errors.py now returns
4xx with a meaningful message; the "image with no face (1x1 PNG)"
case specifically went from 500 → 400.

* refactor(face-recognition): insightface packs go through gallery files:, drop FaceAnalysis
Follows up on the discovery that LocalAI's gallery `files:` mechanism
handles archives (zip, tar.gz, …) via mholt/archiver/v3 — the rhasspy
piper voices use exactly this pattern. Insightface packs are zip
archives, so we can now deliver them the same way every other
gallery-managed model gets delivered: declaratively, checksum-verified,
through LocalAI's standard download+extract pipeline.
Two changes:
1. Gallery (gallery/index.yaml) — every insightface-* entry gains a
`files:` list with the pack zip's URI + SHA-256. `local-ai models
install insightface-buffalo-l` now fetches the zip, verifies the
hash, and extracts it into the models directory. No more reliance
on insightface's library-internal `ensure_available()` auto-download
or its hardcoded `BASE_REPO_URL`.
2. InsightFaceEngine (backend/python/insightface/engines.py) — drops
the FaceAnalysis wrapper and drives insightface's `model_zoo`
directly. The ~50 lines FaceAnalysis provides — glob ONNX files,
route each through `model_zoo.get_model()`, build a
`{taskname: model}` dict, loop per-face at inference — are
reimplemented in `InsightFaceEngine`. The actual inference classes
(RetinaFace, ArcFaceONNX, Attribute, Landmark) are still
insightface's — we only replicate the glue, so drift risk against
upstream is minimal.
Why drop FaceAnalysis: it hard-codes a `<root>/models/<name>/*.onnx`
layout that doesn't match what LocalAI's zip extraction produces.
LocalAI unpacks archives flat into `<models_dir>`. Upstream packs
are inconsistent — buffalo_l/s/sc ship ONNX at the zip root (lands
at `<models_dir>/*.onnx`), buffalo_m/antelopev2 wrap in a redundant
`<name>/` dir (lands at `<models_dir>/<name>/*.onnx`). The new
`_locate_insightface_pack` helper searches both locations plus
legacy paths and returns whichever has ONNX files. Replaces the
earlier `_flatten_insightface_pack` helper (which tried to fight
FaceAnalysis's layout expectations; now we just find the files
wherever they are).
Net effect for users: install once via LocalAI's managed flow,
weights live alongside every other model, progress shows in the
jobs endpoint, no first-load network call. Same API surface,
cleaner plumbing.
Assisted-by: Claude:claude-opus-4-7
* fix(face-recognition): CI's insightface e2e path needs the pack pre-fetched
The e2e suite drives LoadModel over gRPC without going through LocalAI's
gallery flow, so the engine's `_model_dir` option (normally populated
from ModelPath) is empty. Previously the insightface target relied on
FaceAnalysis auto-download to paper over this, but we dropped
FaceAnalysis in favor of direct model_zoo calls — so the buffalo_l
target started failing at LoadModel with "no insightface pack found".
Mirror the opencv target's pre-fetch pattern: download buffalo_sc.zip
(same SHA as the gallery entry), extract it on the host, and pass
`root:<dir>` so the engine locates the pack without needing
ModelPath. Switched to buffalo_sc (smallest pack, ~16MB) to keep CI
fast; it covers the same insightface engine code path as buffalo_l.
Face analyze cap dropped since buffalo_sc has no age/gender head.

* feat(face-recognition): surface face-recognition in advertised feature maps
The six /v1/face/* endpoints were missing from every place LocalAI
advertises its feature surface to clients:
* api_instructions — the machine-readable capability index at
GET /api/instructions. Added `face-recognition` as a dedicated
instruction area with an intro that calls out the in-memory
registry caveat and the /v1/face/embed vs /v1/embeddings split.
* auth/permissions — added FeatureFaceRecognition constant, routed
all six face endpoints through it so admins can gate them per-user
like any other API feature. Default ON (matches the other API
features).
* React UI capabilities — CAP_FACE_RECOGNITION symbol mapped to
FLAG_FACE_RECOGNITION. Declared only for now; the Face page is a
follow-up (noted in the plan).
Instruction count bumped 9 → 10; test updated.
Assisted-by: Claude:claude-opus-4-7[1m]
* docs(agents): capture advertising-surface steps in the endpoint guide
Before this change, adding a new /v1/* endpoint reliably missed one or
more of: the swagger @Tags annotation, the /api/instructions registry,
the auth RouteFeatureRegistry, and the React UI CAP_* symbol. The
endpoint would work but be invisible to API consumers, admins, and the
UI — and nothing in the existing docs said to look in those places.
Extend .agents/api-endpoints-and-auth.md with a new "Advertising
surfaces" section covering all four surfaces (swagger tags, /api/
instructions, capabilities.js, docs/), and expand the closing checklist
so it's impossible to ship a feature without visiting each one. Hoist a
one-liner reminder into AGENTS.md's Quick Reference so agents skim it
before diving in.

fix(distributed): pass ExternalURI through NATS backend install (#9446)
When installing a backend with a custom OCI URI in distributed mode, the URI was captured in ManagementOp.ExternalURI by the HTTP handler but never forwarded to workers. BackendInstallRequest had no URI field, so workers fell through to the gallery lookup and failed with "no backend found with name <custom-name>". Add URI/Name/Alias fields to BackendInstallRequest and thread them from ManagementOp through DistributedBackendManager.InstallBackend() and the RemoteUnloaderAdapter. On the worker side, route to InstallExternalBackend when URI is set instead of InstallBackendFromGallery. Update all remaining InstallBackend call sites (UpgradeBackend, reconciler pending-op drain, router auto-install) to pass empty strings for the new params.

fix(distributed): stop queue loops on agent nodes + dead-letter cap (#9433)
pending_backend_ops rows targeting agent-type workers looped forever: the reconciler fan-out hit a NATS subject the worker doesn't subscribe to, returned ErrNoResponders, we marked the node unhealthy, and the health monitor flipped it back to healthy on the next heartbeat. Next tick, same row, same failure. Three related fixes: 1. enqueueAndDrainBackendOp skips nodes whose NodeType != backend. Agent workers handle agent NATS subjects, not backend.install / delete / list, so enqueueing for them guarantees an infinite retry loop. Silent skip is correct — they aren't consumers of these ops. 2. Reconciler drain mirrors enqueueAndDrainBackendOp's behavior on nats.ErrNoResponders: mark the node unhealthy before recording the failure, so subsequent ListDuePendingBackendOps (filters by status=healthy) stops picking the row until the node actually recovers. Matches the synchronous fan-out path. 3. Dead-letter cap at maxPendingBackendOpAttempts (10). After ~1h of exponential backoff the row is a poison message; further retries just thrash NATS. Row is deleted and logged at ERROR so it stays visible without staying infinite. Plus a one-shot startup cleanup in NewNodeRegistry: drop queue rows that target agent-type nodes, non-existent nodes, or carry an empty backend name. Guarded by the same schema-migration advisory lock so only one instance performs it. The guards above prevent new rows of this shape; this closes the migration gap for existing ones. Tests: the prune migration (valid row stays, agent + empty-name rows drop) on top of existing upsert / backoff coverage. |

feat(distributed): sync state with frontends, better backend management reporting (#9426)
* fix(distributed): detect backend upgrades across worker nodes
Before this change `DistributedBackendManager.CheckUpgrades` delegated to the
local manager, which read backends from the frontend filesystem. In
distributed deployments the frontend has no backends installed locally —
they live on workers — so the upgrade-detection loop never ran and the UI
silently never surfaced upgrades even when the gallery advertised newer
versions or digests.
Worker-side: NATS backend.list reply now carries Version, URI and Digest
for each installed backend (read from metadata.json).
Frontend-side: DistributedBackendManager.ListBackends aggregates per-node
refs (name, status, version, digest) instead of deduping, and CheckUpgrades
feeds that aggregation into gallery.CheckUpgradesAgainst — a new entrypoint
factored out of CheckBackendUpgrades so both paths share the same core
logic.
Cluster drift policy: when per-node version/digest tuples disagree, the
backend is flagged upgradeable regardless of whether any single node
matches the gallery, and UpgradeInfo.NodeDrift enumerates the outliers so
operators can see *why* it is out of sync. The next upgrade-all realigns
the cluster.
Tests cover: drift detection, unanimous-match (no upgrade), and the
empty-installed-version path that the old distributed code silently
missed.
* feat(ui): surface backend upgrades in the System page
The System page (Manage.jsx) only showed updates as a tiny inline arrow,
so operators routinely missed them. Port the Backend Gallery's upgrade UX
so System speaks the same visual language:
- Yellow banner at the top of the Backends tab when upgrades are pending,
with an "Upgrade all" button (serial fan-out, matches the gallery) and a
"Updates only" filter toggle.
- Warning pill (↑ N) next to the tab label so the count is glanceable even
when the banner is scrolled out of view.
- Per-row labeled "Upgrade to vX.Y" button (replaces the icon-only button
that silently flipped semantics between Reinstall and Upgrade), plus an
"Update available" badge in the new Version column.
- New columns: Version (with upgrade + drift chips), Nodes (per-node
attribution badges for distributed mode, degrading to a compact
"on N nodes · M offline" chip above three nodes), Installed (relative
time).
- System backends render a "Protected" chip instead of a bare "—" so rows
still align and the reason is obvious.
- Delete uses the softer btn-danger-ghost so rows don't scream red; the
ConfirmDialog still owns the "are you sure".
The upgrade checker also needed the same per-worker fix as the previous
commit: NewUpgradeChecker now takes a BackendManager getter so its
periodic runs call the distributed CheckUpgrades (which asks workers)
instead of the empty frontend filesystem. Without this the /api/backends/
upgrades endpoint stayed empty in distributed mode even with the protocol
change in place.
New CSS primitives — .upgrade-banner, .tab-pill, .badge-row, .cell-stack,
.cell-mono, .cell-muted, .row-actions, .btn-danger-ghost — all live in
App.css so other pages can adopt them without duplicating styles.
* feat(ui): polish the Nodes page so it reads like a product
The Nodes page was the biggest visual liability in distributed mode.
Rework the main dashboard surfaces in place without changing behavior:
StatCards: uniform height (96px min), left accent bar colored by the
metric's semantic (success/warning/error/primary), icon lives in a
36x36 soft-tinted chip top-right, value is left-aligned and large.
Grid auto-fills so the row doesn't collapse on narrow viewports. This
replaces the previous thin-bordered boxes with inconsistent heights.
Table rows: expandable rows now show a chevron cue on the left (rotates
on expand) so users know rows open. Status cell became a dedicated chip
with an LED-style halo dot instead of a bare bullet. Action buttons gained
labels — "Approve", "Resume", "Drain" — so the icons aren't doing all
the semantic work; the destructive remove action uses the softer
btn-danger-ghost variant so rows don't scream red, with the ConfirmDialog
still owning the real "are you sure". Applied cell-mono/cell-muted
utility classes so label chips and addresses share one spacing/font
grammar instead of re-declaring inline styles everywhere.
Expanded drawer: empty states for Loaded Models and Installed Backends
now render as a proper drawer-empty card (dashed border, icon, one-line
hint) instead of a plain muted string that read like broken formatting.
Tabs: three inline-styled buttons became the shared .tab class so they
inherit focus ring, hover state, and the rest of the design system —
matches the System page.
"Add more workers" toggle turned into a .nodes-add-worker dashed-border
button labelled "Register a new worker" (action voice) instead of a
chevron + muted link that operators kept mistaking for broken text.
New shared CSS primitives carry over to other pages:
.stat-grid + .stat-card, .row-chevron, .node-status, .drawer-empty,
.nodes-add-worker.
* feat(distributed): durable backend fan-out + state reconciliation
Two connected problems handled together:
1) Backend delete/install/upgrade used to silently skip non-healthy nodes,
so a delete during an outage left a zombie on the offline node once it
returned. The fan-out now records intent in a new pending_backend_ops
table before attempting the NATS round-trip. Currently-healthy nodes
get an immediate attempt; everyone else is queued. Unique index on
(node_id, backend, op) means reissuing the same operation refreshes
next_retry_at instead of stacking duplicates.
2) Loaded-model state could drift from reality: a worker OOM'd, got
killed, or restarted a backend process would leave a node_models row
claiming the model was still loaded, feeding ghost entries into the
/api/nodes/models listing and the router's scheduling decisions.
The existing ReplicaReconciler gains two new passes that run under a
fresh KeyStateReconciler advisory lock (non-blocking, so one wedged
frontend doesn't freeze the cluster):
- drainPendingBackendOps: retries queued ops whose next_retry_at has
passed on currently-healthy nodes. Success deletes the row; failure
bumps attempts and pushes next_retry_at out with exponential backoff
(30s → 15m cap). ErrNoResponders also marks the node unhealthy.
- probeLoadedModels: gRPC-HealthChecks addresses the DB thinks are
loaded but hasn't seen touched in the last probeStaleAfter (2m).
Unreachable addresses are removed from the registry. A pluggable
ModelProber lets tests substitute a fake without standing up gRPC.
DistributedBackendManager exposes DeleteBackendDetailed so the HTTP
handler can surface per-node outcomes ("2 succeeded, 1 queued") to the
UI in a follow-up commit; the existing DeleteBackend still returns
error-only for callers that don't care about node breakdown.
Multi-frontend safety: the state pass uses advisorylock.TryWithLockCtx
on a new key so N frontends coordinate — the same pattern the health
monitor and replica reconciler already rely on. Single-node mode runs
both passes inline (adapter is nil, state drain is a no-op).
Tests cover the upsert semantics, backoff math, the probe removing an
unreachable model but keeping a reachable one, and filtering by
probeStaleAfter.
* feat(ui): show cluster distribution of models in the System page
When a frontend restarted in distributed mode, models that workers had
already loaded weren't visible until the operator clicked into each node
manually — the /api/models/capabilities endpoint only knew about
configs on the frontend's filesystem, not the registry-backed truth.
/api/models/capabilities now joins in ListAllLoadedModels() when the
registry is active, returning loaded_on[] with node id/name/state/status
for each model. Models that live in the registry but lack a local config
(the actual ghosts, not recovered from the frontend's file cache) still
surface with source="registry-only" so operators can see and persist
them; without that emission they'd be invisible to this frontend.
Manage → Models replaces the old Running/Idle pill with a distribution
cell that lists the first three nodes the model is loaded on as chips
colored by state (green loaded, blue loading, amber anything else). On
wider clusters the remaining count collapses into a +N chip with a
title-attribute breakdown. Disabled / single-node behavior unchanged.
Adopted models get an extra "Adopted" ghost-icon chip with hover copy
explaining what it means and how to make it permanent.
Distributed mode also enables a 10s auto-refresh and a "Last synced Xs
ago" indicator next to the Update button so ghost rows drop off within
one reconcile tick after their owning process dies. Non-distributed
mode is untouched — no polling, no cell-stack, same old Running/Idle.
* feat(ui): NodeDistributionChip — shared per-node attribution component
Large clusters were going to break the Manage → Backends Nodes column:
the old inline logic rendered every node as a badge and would shred the
layout at >10 workers, plus the Manage → Models distribution cell had
copy-pasted its own slightly-different version.
NodeDistributionChip handles any cluster size with two render modes:
- small (≤3 nodes): inline chips of node names, colored by health.
- large: a single "on N nodes · M offline · K drift" summary chip;
clicking opens a Popover with a per-node table (name, status,
version, digest for backends; name, status, state for models).
Drift counting mirrors the backend's summarizeNodeDrift so the UI
number matches UpgradeInfo.NodeDrift. Digests are truncated to the
docker-style 12-char form with the full value preserved in the title.
Popover is a new general-purpose primitive: fixed positioning anchored
to the trigger, flips above when there's no room below, closes on
outside-click or Escape, returns focus to the trigger. Uses .card as
its surface so theming is inherited. Also useful for a future
labels-editor popup and the user menu.
Manage.jsx drops its duplicated inline Nodes-column + loaded_on cell
and uses the shared chip with context="backends" / "models"
respectively. Delete code removes ~40 lines of ad-hoc logic.
* feat(ui): shared FilterBar across the System page tabs
The Backends gallery had a nice search + chip + toggle strip; the System
page had nothing, so the two surfaces felt like different apps. Lift the
pattern into a reusable FilterBar and wire both System tabs through it.
New component core/http/react-ui/src/components/FilterBar.jsx renders a
search input, a role="tablist" chip row (aria-selected for a11y), and
optional toggles / right slot. Chips support an optional `count` which
the System page uses to show "User 3", "Updates 1" etc.
System Models tab: search by id or backend; chips for
All/Running/Idle/Disabled/Pinned plus a conditional Distributed chip in
distributed mode. "Last synced" + Update button live in the right slot.
System Backends tab: search by name/alias/meta-backend-for; chips for
All/User/System/Meta plus conditional Updates / Offline-nodes chips
when relevant. The old ad-hoc "Updates only" toggle from the upgrade
banner folded into the Updates chip — one source of truth for that
filter. Offline chip only appears in distributed mode when at least
one backend has an unhealthy node, so the chip row stays quiet on
healthy clusters.
Filter state persists in URL query params (mq/mf/bq/bf) so deep links
and tab switches keep the operator's filter context instead of
resetting every time.
Also adds an "Adopted" distribution path: when a model in
/api/models/capabilities carries source="registry-only" (discovered on
a worker but not configured locally), the Models tab shows a ghost chip
labelled "Adopted" with hover copy explaining how to persist it — this
is what closes the loop on the ghost-model story end-to-end.

feat: backend versioning, upgrade detection and auto-upgrade (#9315)
* feat: add backend versioning data model foundation Add Version, URI, and Digest fields to BackendMetadata for tracking installed backend versions and enabling upgrade detection. Add Version field to GalleryBackend. Add UpgradeAvailable/AvailableVersion fields to SystemBackend. Implement GetImageDigest() for lightweight OCI digest lookups via remote.Head. Record version, URI, and digest at install time in InstallBackend() and propagate version through meta backends. * feat: add backend upgrade detection and execution logic Add CheckBackendUpgrades() to compare installed backend versions/digests against gallery entries, and UpgradeBackend() to perform atomic upgrades with backup-based rollback on failure. Includes Agent A's data model changes (Version/URI/Digest fields, GetImageDigest). * feat: add AutoUpgradeBackends config and runtime settings Add configuration and runtime settings for backend auto-upgrade: - RuntimeSettings field for dynamic config via API/JSON - ApplicationConfig field, option func, and roundtrip conversion - CLI flag with LOCALAI_AUTO_UPGRADE_BACKENDS env var - Config file watcher support for runtime_settings.json - Tests for ToRuntimeSettings, ApplyRuntimeSettings, and roundtrip * feat(ui): add backend version display and upgrade support - Add upgrade check/trigger API endpoints to config and api module - Backends page: version badge, upgrade indicator, upgrade button - Manage page: version in metadata, context-aware upgrade/reinstall button - Settings page: auto-upgrade backends toggle * feat: add upgrade checker service, API endpoints, and CLI command - UpgradeChecker background service: checks every 6h, auto-upgrades when enabled - API endpoints: GET /backends/upgrades, POST /backends/upgrades/check, POST /backends/upgrade/:name - CLI: `localai backends upgrade` command, version display in `backends list` - BackendManager interface: add UpgradeBackend and CheckUpgrades methods - Wire upgrade op through GalleryService backend handler - Distributed mode: fan-out upgrade to worker nodes via NATS * fix: use advisory lock for upgrade checker in distributed mode In distributed mode with multiple frontend instances, use PostgreSQL advisory lock (KeyBackendUpgradeCheck) so only one instance runs periodic upgrade checks and auto-upgrades. Prevents duplicate upgrade operations across replicas. Standalone mode is unchanged (simple ticker loop). * test: add e2e tests for backend upgrade API - Test GET /api/backends/upgrades returns 200 (even with no upgrade checker) - Test POST /api/backends/upgrade/:name accepts request and returns job ID - Test full upgrade flow: trigger upgrade via API, wait for job completion, verify run.sh updated to v2 and metadata.json has version 2.0.0 - Test POST /api/backends/upgrades/check returns 200 - Fix nil check for applicationInstance in upgrade API routes |
