mudler-agentandEttore Di Giacinto 2cadf319a0 feat(realtime): LFM3-Audio speech-to-speech on llama.cpp, remove liquid-audio (#12958)
* chore(backends): remove the liquid-audio Python backend

The backend targets liquid-audio, which loads LFM2 checkpoints only.
Remove its directory, the gallery file and the LFM2.5-Audio model
entries, the library and generated backend gallery entries, the
backend matrix and CI job, the Makefile targets and the golden test
fixtures that listed it.

* refactor(config): drop liquid-audio from capabilities, importers and UI

With the liquid-audio backend gone, remove its capability entry, its
importer, its artifact-gate entry and the realtime_audio heuristic
that only matched that backend. realtime_audio is now set only
through known_usecases. Update the Talk and fine-tuning pages, the
docs and the swagger text that named the backend.

* chore(llama-cpp): bump llama.cpp to e486a4b5

Move the llama.cpp pin to e486a4b559617dc88bf79978996f6c670b6bbc9d,
the master head of 2026-10-28. It contains the LFM3-Audio support
(ggml-org/llama.cpp#31257) and the realtime server split
(ggml-org/llama.cpp#31269).

The score task patch is regenerated against the new pin. It applies
with git apply and with patch -p1, with no offset and no fuzz. Its
hunks in server-task.h and server-context.cpp were rebased by hand
next to SERVER_TASK_TYPE_REALTIME and the control dispatch.

The C++ backend was built on CPU for this change: the llama, mtmd and
server-context libraries and the grpc-server binary link.

* feat(llama-cpp): compile server-realtime.cpp into grpc-server

server-context.cpp includes server-realtime.h, and its realtime slot
type is defined in server-realtime.cpp. Upstream compiles that file
into the server library. The gRPC server is one translation unit, so
it must include the file too, or the link fails.

The include is guarded by __has_include. Forks that predate the
realtime split do not ship the file, so they keep building as before.

* chore(llama-cpp): probe realtime and TTS voice support in prepare.sh

prepare.sh writes llama_compat.h from probes on the checkout. Add two:
LOCALAI_HAS_REALTIME (SERVER_TASK_TYPE_REALTIME in server-task.h) and
LOCALAI_HAS_TTS_VOICE (set_voice in mtmd-helper.h). The probes let the
gRPC server choose the realtime and voice code paths per checkout, so
forks without them keep compiling.

* feat(llama-cpp): advertise speech recognition and speech-to-speech

llama-cpp now registers the AudioTranscription and AudioToAudioStream
RPCs, with the transcript and realtime_audio usecases. The default
usecase stays chat, so a plain GGUF is still a chat model. The
backend implements the RPCs in a follow-up change; until then the
calls return UNIMPLEMENTED.

* feat(config): add pipeline.any_to_any for speech-to-speech models

A realtime_audio model that serves the whole speech loop itself sets
pipeline.any_to_any. The flag is off by default, so chained pipelines
and existing realtime_audio configs are unchanged. The realtime_audio
heuristic stays explicit: a llama-cpp model is never a Talk-page model
unless known_usecases says so.

* feat(config): read the audio encoder and speech-to-speech projector flags

Add HasAudioEncoderProjector for clip.has_audio_encoder and
HasSpeechToSpeechProjector, which requires the LFM3 audio encoder
family together with the gen-audio decoder. Qwen3-TTS sets both encoder
flags too, so the flags alone cannot tell it apart from LFM3.

An mmproj that carries the LFM3 audio encoder and the gen-audio decoder
now imports with known_usecases realtime_audio, chat, transcript and
tts, pipeline.any_to_any: true, the parallel:2 option and the tokenizer
template. Other gen-audio projectors keep the TTS-only result, Qwen3-TTS
included. The probe runs against a local HTTP server in the tests.

* feat(llama-cpp): named-voice TTS and the LFM3 ASR prompt

Models without a speaker reference (LFM3-Audio) take a named voice
through their "tts" chat template instead of a reference file. The
request is validated with needs_reference=false, the prompt is rendered
with common_chat_get_tts_prompt(), and the voice is set on the gen-audio
input. Qwen3-TTS Base keeps the reference-file rule. The branch is
guarded by LOCALAI_HAS_TTS_VOICE, so forks without named voices keep the
old behaviour.

Transcription takes its prompt from common_chat_get_asr_prompt(). LFM3
gets a system turn that names the language and an empty user turn.
Qwen3-ASR's preset is unchanged: fixed user text, no system turn, and a
caller prompt is still appended after a newline. The preset call is
guarded by a new LOCALAI_HAS_ASR_PRESET probe.

The pure parts sit in tts_request_options.h and transcription_prompt.h,
with standalone tests run by backend/cpp/run-unit-tests.sh.

Add the test-extra-backend-llama-cpp-lfm3 target. It runs the tts,
ttsstream and transcription specs against LFM3-Audio GGUF weights. It is
a manual run and is not wired into CI.

* test(e2e): mock AudioToAudioStream and pending realtime S2S specs

The mock backend serves AudioToAudioStream deterministically: session
created, commit with RMS, a tool call on the first turn with tools, then
transcript pieces and paced 24 kHz tone frames, with response.cancel
ending a reply as cancelled.

The realtime S2S specs cover the mock and real-weights variants. They
skip until the /v1/realtime S2S path lands, so the mock suite stays
green in CI.

* feat(llama-cpp): speech-to-speech AudioToAudioStream on the realtime slot

Implement AudioToAudioStream on upstream's realtime slot, so a model
that answers after the audio (LFM3-Audio) can hold a conversation over
the existing duplex RPC. The proto schema does not change: tools travel
in the config, tool calls leave as function_call_arguments.done and tool
results arrive as a function_call_output item.

realtime_session.h keeps what needs no model: the turn text derived
from the chat template (with a tool turn), the conversation state, a
filter that keeps <tool_call> blocks out of the transcript and drops
audio produced inside them, and the translation of slot results into
events. grpc-server.cpp wires it to the slot with control tasks and
parses calls with the parser the chat template selects.

The unit test uses a fake renderer. A ctest-only check renders the real
LFM3 template and compares the slot text with the full render.

* feat(gallery): add the LFM3-Audio-2B entries

Two llama-cpp entries for LiquidAI/LFM3-Audio-2B-GGUF, the Q4_K_M
default (lfm3-audio-2b) and the Q8_0 build (lfm3-audio-2b-q8), both
with the Q8_0 audio projector. Each declares pipeline.any_to_any and the
realtime_audio, chat, transcript and tts usecases the importer writes
for an LFM3 projector, with parallel:2 and the tokenizer template. The
Q4 entry lists the Q8 one as a variant.

File sizes and sha256 come from the Hugging Face API for the pinned
repo revision. Speaker reference files and the VAD model are not part
of the entries: VAD stays optional.

* docs: describe LFM3-Audio speech-to-speech and its gallery entries

Adds a speech-to-speech section to the Realtime API page (any_to_any
configuration, VAD versus manual commit, tools, transcripts, barge-in,
limits), a pipeline.any_to_any row, a llama.cpp speech-to-speech row in
the compatibility table, and LFM3-Audio mentions on the TTS and ASR
pages. The feature is marked experimental: the behaviour follows the
backend session contract and has not been run with real weights.

* feat(realtime): run any-to-any models on AudioToAudioStream

A realtime_audio model with pipeline.any_to_any now opens one duplex
stream to the backend and keeps it for the session, replacing the
"any-to-any models not implemented" branch. The chained pipeline is
unchanged.

The endpoint forwards input audio (with a pre-roll from speech start
when a VAD model is set, otherwise every chunk and a client commit),
sends response.create, and turns the backend's events into the usual
realtime events: audio and transcript deltas, tool calls through the
existing function_call items, and a single response.done. A function
call output is forwarded before the next response. Barge-in sends
response.cancel ahead of the new speech and stops forwarding audio at
once. The user's speech is transcribed on the side and reported on the
user item; a failure there does not touch the response.

Server VAD is on only when pipeline.vad is set. Classifier mode,
compaction, streaming.llm, voice gating, sound detection and
semantic_vad are rejected for these models.

The mock backend now matches the llama.cpp contract (session.updated,
the cancel error when idle) and its VAD reports the loud stretches of
the audio, so the S2S e2e specs run a VAD turn. The specs are enabled.

* test(e2e): add the real-weights realtime S2S variant and the gRPC s2s spec

The realtime S2S specs now check reply audio on real models: duration,
loudness, clipping, and keywords found in the model transcript or in a
separate ASR of the output audio. run-realtime-lfm3.sh stages the llama-cpp
and sherpa-onnx backends, the LFM3-Audio files and the sherpa VAD, ASR
and TTS models, then runs the real variant. It is manual and never part of
CI: `make test-realtime` still filters out real-models.

The backend suite gains an s2s capability (spoken turn, tool call, tool
result, spoken answer over AudioToAudioStream) and optional TTS duration
and RMS bounds plus a transcript keyword check, all enabled for
test-extra-backend-llama-cpp-lfm3.

* test(e2e): expect the idle-cancel error from the mock S2S

The mock now answers a response.cancel with no reply running with
response_cancel_not_active, as the llama.cpp backend does. The cancel

data after the stream ended.

* feat(talk): show any-to-any models as one speech-to-speech model

/api/pipeline-models lists a pipeline.any_to_any model with any_to_any
set and its optional VAD. A realtime_audio model that is not any-to-any
is listed only when it has the four pipeline slots, since the session
takes the chained path for it.

The Talk page shows a speech-to-speech model as one model: no four-slot
view, the VAD slot only when a VAD model is set, and the female and male
voices offered. Without a VAD model the server does not detect turns, so
the page offers Done speaking, which sends input_audio_buffer.commit and
then response.create. Text-only replies stream through
response.output_text.delta and .done.

self_contained stays in the response for clients built before any_to_any.

* fix(realtime): refuse a llama-cpp realtime model without pipeline.any_to_any

* fix(realtime): hold manual-commit S2S audio until the commit

In manual-commit mode the endpoint streamed every appended chunk to the
backend, so input_audio_buffer.clear only emptied the Go buffer while the
model kept the audio, and idle audio filled its context between turns.
Keep the audio in the input buffer and send it, behind pending text and
tool-result items, when the client commits or asks for a response.

Frames and controls now go through one ordered write queue, so no gRPC
send happens under the audio buffer lock. A tool result created while a
VAD turn is open is refused with a clear error. When the stream ends
outside a response the session reports it and closes, and a bare EOF
from Send reports the status that Recv holds.

* test(e2e): make the mock S2S backend keep the llama-cpp session limits

The mock accepted what the real backend refuses and hid two endpoint bugs.
It now treats output_modalities from the config as a fixed session mode and
picks the default per response from the tools set at that time. A fixed text
plus audio mode with tools reads the tool call out loud. After the first
commit or message, session.update of instructions, voice or tools is an
error that does not belong to a response, committing an empty buffer is an
error, and response.create while a reply runs is refused. Errors of a
refused response.create carry response_scoped in their meta.

* fix(realtime): leave the S2S output mode to the backend unless the client sets one

The stream config sent text plus audio when the session had no tools yet.
The llama-cpp backend keeps a mode from the config as a fixed session mode,
and tools added later by session.update never cleared it. The model then
read tool calls out loud. Send output_modalities only when the client chose
them. The backend picks the default of each response from the tools it has
when the response starts.

* feat(llama-cpp): mark the realtime errors that answer a response.create

The error event now carries response_scoped: true when it ends the request
for a response (a refused response.create, a failed commit made by it, or
a stream failure). Other errors, such as a refused session.update or a
commit of an empty buffer, are not about a response and one that runs
keeps generating. The client needs the difference to know whether a
response.done is still coming.

* fix(realtime): end an S2S response only on the errors that belong to it

Every backend error ended the response in flight, although the backend
also reports errors about other things (a refused session.update, a commit
of an empty buffer) and goes on generating. The rest of the reply was lost
and the next response.create met either a refusal or the leftover events of
the old reply. End the response only on an error marked response_scoped,
forward the others to the client and keep waiting for response.done. Drop
the events buffered by an earlier response when a new one starts, and skip
the commit of a turn that forwarded no audio.

* fix(realtime): run the S2S input transcription detached from the commit slot

The commit waited for the side transcription of the user audio while it
held the commit slot, and response.create waits for that slot. The ASR
latency was added before every reply, and on a backend with few slots a
busy ASR task could stall the reply. The model already has the audio, so
run the transcription detached under the session context and release the
slot at once. The transcript is still reported on the user item.

* fix(realtime): stop an S2S reader leak and a cancel that waits on the write queue

The reader waited on a channel it closes itself when the events buffer was
full, so it outlived the session after a turn ended on an error or timed
out. It now also stops when the session closes.

Stopping a response sent the cancel through the write queue and waited for
it before the grace timer started. With backpressure on the stream the wait
never ended and nothing read the events meanwhile. The timer now starts
first and the cancel is only queued.

* feat(realtime): let a chained pipeline run without a VAD model

A pipeline that names no pipeline.vad failed to build, because the
VAD slot was always loaded, and a new session still started with
server_vad. The slot is now optional for chained pipelines as it
already is for any-to-any models: the session starts with turn
detection off and the client commits each turn. Turning server_vad on
for such a session is refused, and a switch to a pipeline without a
VAD drops turn detection.

* feat(gallery): add LFM3-Audio VAD and chained-pipeline entries

the turn detector), and lfm3-audio-2b-pipeline, -pipeline-vad and the
-q8 forms (the model chained through its own transcription, chat and
speech slots, with and without the VAD). The gallery has no
dependencies between models, so the VAD entries state that
silero-vad-ggml must be installed first.

Drop the variants list from lfm3-audio-2b: it let the installer pick
the larger Q8 build on any host with enough memory, so a plain install
of the Q4 entry did not get Q4. All entries are now independent. Tests

calls from inside that scope. A server-side tool starts a follow-up

still held, so the client never got response.done. Run the tool calls
once the slot is free; the event order is unchanged.

* fix(realtime): end an S2S session whose stream dies, and stop queuing after close

A stream that died during a response left the session open: later
requests failed one by one and VAD frames kept being forwarded. The
response now ends the session through the transport, and enqueue drops
requests once the session is closed so the write queue cannot grow.

The writer is now the only caller of Send and of CloseSend. close()
used to call CloseSend while the writer could be inside Send, which
gRPC does not allow.

now claimed and queued under the audio lock only when no turn is open,

* feat(realtime): parse tool calls with the chat template, as upstream

Since ggml-org/llama.cpp#31287 the realtime server handles tools with
the parser and grammar of the chat template. Do the same in the
speech-to-speech stream instead of a hard-coded tag filter and a parse
of the whole text at the end.

- Each response gets a common_chat_session with the tools of the
  session and parallel calls. Its grammar and preserved tokens go into
  the sampling of the response, so the slot keeps the call tokens in
  the text and constrains the call.
- The text of the response is fed to the session piece by piece
  (task_result_state::update_chat_msg). Content deltas become the
  transcript; tool-call deltas are collected into one
  function_call_arguments.done per call at the end. Audio after the
  start of a call is dropped.
- A tool_choice of auto, none or required is accepted in the params of
  the config, in session.update and in response.create, with the
  response overriding the session.
- The tool turn is derived from a conversation in which the assistant
  called a tool, like upstream, not from a plain reply.
- response.done carries raw_text, everything the model wrote with the
  call markup, for a caller that parses it another way. If the parser
  throws, the rest of the response is content and the raw text is the
  way out.

ToolCallFilter is no longer used and goes in the next commit.

The unit tests cover the splitter contract (content, call deltas, the
final piece, whole characters only). realtime_chat_check feeds
LFM3-format text through the session in pieces of 1, 7 and all bytes
and checks the call, the transcript and the grammar.

* refactor(realtime): drop the tool-call text filter

The parser of the chat template now splits content from tool calls, so
ToolCallFilter, which looked for the literal <tool_call> tags, has no
caller. Remove it with its tests. Every case it covered (a call
between text, split tags, several calls, an unfinished call, text after
a call) is handled by the parser, and realtime_chat_check runs the
LFM3 format through it in pieces of different sizes.

* feat(realtime): fall back to the raw text for S2S tool calls

For an any-to-any model, the calls the backend parsed still win. When
there are none and the request had tools, parse the raw text that
response.done now carries the way the chained pipeline parses the text
of its LLM (CleanupLLMResult, ParseFunctionCall, ParseTextContent), so
a call format the backend parser does not know can still be served
with function.xml_format_preset or the other function settings of the
model. The content around the calls replaces the streamed transcript
only if the config captures it, as in the chained path.

Also pass tool_choice to the backend: the session mode with the stream
config and with session.update, and the mode of a response.create
override with that event. A named function cannot be forced, so it is
not sent.

* fix(functions): parse tool blocks that have text between them

The iterative XML parser stopped at the first scope block that was
preceded by text, so "<tool_call>A</tool_call> then <tool_call>B" gave
one call. Skip text between blocks once a call was found; text before
the first block still ends the parse as before. Blocks that follow each
other, or only whitespace, already worked.

Tests cover three calls back to back and with text between them, with
the lfm3 preset and with auto-detection. They also pin the current
reading of argument values: the parser has no tool schema, so a value
such as 42 or true is read as JSON even when the schema types it as a
string.

so the server parses the call format of the LFM3 chat template when the

* fix(functions): keep earlier calls when a later block does not parse

After a valid call, text that holds the opening tag again (a prose
mention, a markdown example, a malformed second block) made the parser
treat it as a new block, fail, and return no calls at all. Remember the
state after each complete block and fall back to it when a later one
fails: the calls found so far are kept, parsing stops there and the
remaining text stays in the content.

Text skipped between two valid blocks now goes to the content instead of
being dropped, so StripToolCallMarkup keeps it.

* fix(realtime): do not drop audio after a tool call started

In mixed mode the speech for text written before a call can still be
pending when the call starts, so dropping every audio frame after the
first call delta cut the speech while its transcript was sent. The
llama.cpp server never drops audio when it reads a result; do the same.
If a model speaks the call markup aloud, that is model behaviour to
observe on real weights, not something to filter here.

cancelled response still makes no tool call. The path where the parser
throws already sends the text as content and needs no change.

* test(realtime): stop the fake S2S stream from sending after Close

The barge-in spec failed now and then with a data race and "send on
closed channel": its script pushes audio from a goroutine, and the
session closes the stream while that goroutine still runs. A push now
does nothing once the stream is closed, and Close waits for a push in
flight. The production close order is right: the writer closes the
stream only after it stops sending.

* fix(realtime): align the S2S tool-call fallback with the backend

Four gaps in how the Go side reads the tool calls of an any-to-any reply:

- With tool_choice none (the response value wins over the session value)
  the backend builds no tool parser, yet the raw-text fallback still
  turned a call the model wrote into a function_call item. Skip it.
- Without a capture regex the fallback never cleaned the transcript, so the
  stored item and transcript.done kept the raw call markup. When the call
  is XML, use the text left after the markup is cut out; a reply that is
  only a call now has an empty transcript.
- A named function as tool_choice mapped to nothing, so the backend kept
  the previous mode. Refuse it with an error in session.update and
  response.create.
- A response-level tools list changed what the fallback looked for, but
  the backend only has the tools of the session. Use those in both.

* test(realtime): cover the tools path of a client session.update to the S2S backend

A tool call that never came back from an any-to-any model raised the
question whether the tools of the session reach the backend at all. Add a
spec that sends the session.update of the real-weights e2e (flat
Responses API tool, no session type) and checks that the backend gets
the tool in the chat-completions form.

Log the number of tools sent when the stream opens and when a
session.update carries them, so a run log shows it without reading the
wire. The "No tools received" line of the llama-cpp backend does not
show it: the server prints it for the input transcription request, which
has no tools by design.

* test(e2e): interrupt the chained pipeline reply while it is in flight

With unary stages, the default of the lfm3 pipeline gallery entries, the
chained pipeline synthesizes the whole reply and sends it as one audio
delta right before response.done. The barge-in spec waited for that
delta and then rendered the interruption with the TTS, so the first
response was already done when the speech started and ended completed
instead of cancelled. Real runs on a GPU showed it with both
quantizations.

For a pipeline, start the interruption at response.created, which comes
before the LLM and TTS stages. Render the interruption audio before the
first utterance is sent, so nothing sits between the reply and the
interruption. The any-to-any shape still waits for the first audio
delta, which that backend streams while it generates.

"Four" and the ASR heard "for". Compare numbers in one spoken form, so
digits, number words and their homophones match each other. A homophone
only counts when the other text has the number itself, so "for" on both
sides still shares nothing and the check does not pass on a stop word.

* fix(llama-cpp): ask LFM3-Audio for function calls when a realtime session has tools

The default system prompt of a realtime session was "Respond with
interleaved text and audio." whatever the tools. Under that prompt
LFM3-Audio answers in words ("I'll check the weather ...") and never
writes the call. The model card, and the llama.cpp realtime example
client, use "Respond with function calls, and interleaved text and
audio." when the session has tools, and the model then calls the tool.

Pick the default by the tools of the session, and treat the plain default
that the LocalAI server sends back as no choice: it follows the tools too,
also when they arrive with a session.update before the first audio. A
prompt the client wrote is kept as it is.

* fix(realtime): transcribe the input of an any-to-any turn between responses

The input transcript of a speech-to-speech turn ran at the same time as
the reply, on the same model. llama.cpp serves both from one context: the
realtime slot wants embeddings on, the chat slot of the transcript wants
them off, and each flip makes it reserve its compute buffers again. In a
GB10 run that was two reserves of about 175 ms per step, the reply fell to
2.6 tokens per second and the transcript to 380 ms per token, until the
transcript was done.

When pipeline.transcription is the model of the stream, run the transcript
after the response, or before one that is not started yet, and keep
responses out while it runs. A separate transcription model still runs in
parallel.

conversation.item.input_audio_transcription.completed: the transcript
was made (the log shows it) but sent after the end of the window.

Run it in line with the commit instead. A VAD turn transcribes and then
responds. A client response.create already waits for the commit slot, so
it starts once the transcript is out. The transcript event now comes
before any output of the response of its turn, for a manual commit and for
a VAD turn, and never overlaps the response on the llama.cpp context. A
transcription model of its own still runs in parallel.

* feat(realtime): transcribe the input of an any-to-any model only when asked

The stream answers from the audio, so the transcript of the input is for
the client only. On the model of the stream it is costly: llama.cpp
serves the transcript request and the realtime stream from one context
and rebuilds its compute buffers on every step while both are active.
On a GB10 that was 26 to 29 reserves of about 175 ms per turn, against 0
to 1 on the llama.cpp server, and the reply ran at a few tokens per
second.

An any-to-any model no longer fills pipeline.transcription with its own
name. Without it the session does not transcribe the input; with another
model it does, in parallel with the reply; with the model itself named it
does, before the reply. The reply transcript always comes from the stream.
The gallery entries set none, so they get the fast path.

The mock configs and run-realtime-lfm3.sh name a transcription model, so
the real-weights spec still covers the input transcript.

* fix(realtime): end a response as cancelled when a barge-in lands during the LLM call

The chained pipeline cancels the response context on a barge-in. When that
happens while the model is generating, the backend call fails with the
context error, and the response ended as failed: an error event and no
response.done. A client that waits for the terminal of the interrupted
response then waits forever. On a GB10 the q4 model answered before the
barge-in arrived, so only the slower q8 model showed it: the spec read
events for 30 s and timed out.

When the context is cancelled, a failed Predict call or a failed result is
a cancel, as the TTS step and the streamed LLM path already treat it. The
response ends with response.done{cancelled} and no error.

reading, up to 30 s, until the transcript arrives. The contract is that it
comes, not when.

Add a guard spec for what the input transcription is handed: the whole
turn, in a WAV that says the rate it was recorded at (the session rate for

Stefan Walcz 6d7e8171be feat(agents): per-model output cap for agent job completions
Agent jobs (/api/agent/jobs, local and on distributed agent workers) run
cogito against a LocalAI client that sends no max_tokens of its own, so
every completion gets the client's fixed default of 16384. max_iterations
bounds the number of turns and loop_detection repeated tool calls, but
neither stops one completion that keeps generating, and 16384 is the same
for a small tool-picking model and a reasoning model that thinks at length.

Add agent.max_generation_tokens to the model config. When set, both job
paths apply it to the client with SetMaxTokens; requests that carry their
own cap still win, so cogito's length retry can raise it. Unset keeps
today's behaviour.

The specs run each job path against an MCP fixture and a recording LLM
endpoint and check the max_tokens the completions carry; they fail when
either call site drops the cap.

pos-ei-don 073adc50c9 feat(sglang): map reasoning_effort to per-level thinking budgets
The Go side already forwards the request's effort as
Metadata["reasoning_effort"], but the sglang backend only read
enable_thinking: every level got the same model-level thinking_budget,
so low/medium/high produced identical reasoning.

- New model option `effort_budgets:low=…;medium=…;high=…` picks the
  budget of the request's level; unlisted levels and requests without an
  effort keep `thinking_budget`. Parsing reuses _parse_thinking_budget.
- A level listed in effort_budgets turns reasoning on for that request,
  so levels the Go side does not know cannot silently disable it.
- ApplyReasoningEffort now treats `xhigh` and `max` as thinking levels.
  Before, they left DisableReasoning unset, so with a model default of
  "off" asking for more reasoning produced none.

mudler-agentandEttore Di Giacinto c7ce0c602c fix: stop listing the models directory on request paths and cache GGUF header reads (#12683)
* fix(http): stop listing the models directory on embeddings and bearer requests

Every embeddings request read the whole models directory before the body
was parsed, even when the body named its model. On a network-backed
models directory this cost seconds per request.

Embeddings now binds the body first and looks up a default model only
when the body has none, like chat. The pre-bind default lookup and the
gpt-4o constant default are gone from that route.

The first-available default lookup skips the directory when the filter
cannot accept an unconfigured file. Every usecase filter rejects files
without a config, so the scan never added results for them. Match-all,
nil and name filters keep the scan.

The bearer token check is now an exact test: a configured name, or one
stat of that name in the models directory. The value is a literal, not a
regular expression, and a name that is not a local relative path never
matches a file.

parser, keyed by absolute path and validated by size and modification
time. The cached value is a snapshot of the fields the defaults use, not
the parser output.

A changed size or mtime is a miss. Missing files and parse errors are not
cached, so the existing fallback is unchanged. LOCALAI_DISABLE_GUESSING,
the empty-path guard, the alias early return, the panic recovery and the
context-size default are all kept in front of the cache.

The header cache kept parsed GGUF results only in memory, so every restart
parsed each model file again before its defaults were known. Write the cache
to a per-instance file in the data path and load it at startup. A restarted
frontend with a fixed instance ID starts warm.

The file is versioned and records the estimator inputs (gguf-parser version,
candidate contexts, auto context size, offload count). A mismatch on any of
them makes the file ignored. Each entry keeps path, size and mtime, so a
changed model file is a miss on load. Writes run on one background saver,
debounced, through a temp file and rename. The entry bound applies to the
file as well. Without a data path the cache stays in memory only.

by a headerCacheSpec[S] that names the file prefix, schema, fingerprint,
parser and the snapshot encode/decode pair. The GGUF cache becomes one
instance of it.

corruption handling are unchanged. The on-disk JSON keeps the "estimator"
key so existing files still load.

Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-haiku-5-5

* feat(config): share one GGUF header cache file between frontends

Every frontend used to write its own header cache file, named after its
instance ID, so a header read by one frontend was never reused by another.
The cache now uses one file, header-cache.json, in the data path, for all
frontends and for standalone mode. The instance ID no longer changes the
file name.

Frontends share the file in three ways. A save first merges the file's
entries in, so one frontend's write does not drop another's entries. A
miss reloads the file when its modification time has changed, and a hit
never reads it. Writes go to a temp file that is renamed into place, so a
reader never sees a partial file.

Two frontends saving at the same moment can still drop each other's last
entries. That costs one re-parse, never a wrong value, because every
entry is checked against its model file before use.

The shared file is valid only when every frontend mounts the same data
volume. The distributed-mode and model-configuration docs state this mode
and its volume limit.

Stefan Walcz e16b9d04cc feat(pii): protected terms that pass the NER filter unchanged
A name model reads many business names as surnames. Measured with
privacy-filter-multilingual on 24 synthetic German receipts and
invoices: the supplier name ("Hotel Seeblick", "Café Lindenhof", ...)
was masked as LASTNAME (0.78-0.98) or FIRSTNAME in 9 of 12 receipts
that carried one. The supplier is exactly what the upstream model needs
to categorise a receipt, and no score floor helps at those confidences.

pii_detection.protected_terms (inline) and
pii_detection.protected_terms_files (files inside the models path, one
term per line, '#' comments, re-read when size or mtime change) list
values that must pass unchanged. Each whole-word, case-insensitive
occurrence is replaced by a neutral placeholder before the detector
runs; every detection is mapped back onto the original text with the
placeholder parts cut out, so a protected term is never masked or
blocked, the detector never sees it as context, and event offsets keep
addressing the original text. A word extension (extend_to_next_word)
is dropped rather than run into a protected term.

Terms shorter than three characters are ignored. A missing or
unreadable file is logged and skipped: fewer protected terms means more
masking, never less. Paths are verified to stay inside the models path.

Stefan Walcz 9b13408c94 feat(pii): extend a detection over the next word (extend_to_next_word)
Address models tend to tag a postal code with high confidence but miss
or under-score the town right after it. Measured with
privacy-filter-multilingual on 24 synthetic German invoices: the postal
code was masked every time, while the town after it stayed in the clear
in 6 of 18 cases (4 not detected at all, 2 tagged CITY at 0.43/0.47,
below the configured floor). Masking the code alone leaves the pair half
redacted: "[REDACTED:ner:ZIPCODE] Ludwigshafen".

pii_detection.extend_to_next_word lists entity groups whose accepted
detections also cover the word that directly follows them on the same
line, with the same action and group. Horizontal whitespace is skipped,
a line break ends the search, and nothing is extended when no word
follows, so a hit never grows over bare whitespace or onto the next
line (or across the segment separator on the multi-message path).

The option is opt-in and empty by default; existing detector configs
behave exactly as before. Covered by Ginkgo specs in
core/services/routing/pii/extend_test.go (fail without the change), a
YAML round-trip spec, a registry entry for the model editor, and the
middleware and model-configuration docs.

4d7bdc6ff2 feat(ui): redesign the web UI around a shared kit and a calm palette (#12526)
* build(ui): vendor the shared UI kit snapshot at 0.2.0

The restyle needs the kit's tokens, motion layer and component classes.
Take a pinned snapshot instead of depending on the kit at build time,
and keep a lock file with the version and per-file checksums so a later
update shows exactly what changed. The product theme stays outside the
vendored directory.

Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5

* feat(ui): add the ink and teal theme and bridge the old variables

Define the product colours as the shared UI kit's roles, for light and
dark, in theme-localai.css. The kit's contrast check passes on every
pair. theme.css keeps the existing --color-* and --shadow-* names but
now points each at a role, so App.css and the pages get the new palette
without edits. Radii move to the kit scale.

index.html now sets data-theme before first paint with the same rule as
ThemeContext (stored choice, otherwise dark), because the contract
layout of the theme file no longer defaults to dark by itself.

Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5

* feat(ui): restyle the shared chrome with the UI kit grammar

Adjust the shared classes so every page picks up the same interaction
language without per-page edits:

- Sidebar sits on the canvas and the current row lifts onto a card.
  Section labels are tracked uppercase, the badge is a soft pill, and
  the phone drawer leaves the tab order when closed.
- Buttons are flat: hover swaps the surface, press scales to .97, focus
  is a 2px ring with a 2px offset, danger is a tinted wash.
- Inputs use the card surface and the control edge; switches, tabs,
  filter chips, badges and cards follow the same rules. Cards no longer
  lift on hover; only linked or button cards react.
- Menus and popovers scale in from the trigger corner with 40px items.
  Dialogs get a veil fade and a spring settle. Toasts become pills at
  the bottom centre.
- The page transition is a 250 ms fade with a 6px rise. It fills
  backwards so a finished animation no longer leaves a transform that
  confined dialog veils to the main column.

The focus-ring test now checks the outline instead of a box shadow, and
new specs cover the theme roles, the first-paint theme and the sidebar
lift.

* fix(ui): move leftover hard-coded colours onto the theme roles

The YAML editor restated the old blue palette in JavaScript, and a few
pages kept literal blues, indigo and violet tints, or fallbacks that
only applied because a variable was never defined. Point them at the
theme variables so they follow light and dark and the new palette.

The status badges in the account pages built their tint by appending
"22" to a variable, which is not valid once the variable is defined, so
they had no background. Use the wash roles instead.

Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5

* feat(ui): raise the type scale and control size toward the kit

Body and list text moves to 15px and the rest of the scale follows the
kit's 12/13/15/17/21/32/44 steps. Page titles, section headings and
stat values are bold with tighter tracking; titles are 32px.

Buttons, inputs, selects, tabs and nav rows are 40px high with the 12px
radius, compact controls 32px. Tabs become a segmented control. The
sidebar widens to 240px (64px collapsed) and nav rows get more room.
Identifiers and counts in the split views use the mono face, and the
stat grid becomes separate inset tiles.

The Geist stack stays: it is bundled, and the thin look came from the
size, weight and negative tracking, not the face.

Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5

* feat(ui): separate cards, panes and floating surfaces from the canvas

Cards, the Models and Installed split panes, the composers and the
confirm dialog use a stronger card edge, the rest shadow and the 20px
radius, so they read as layers in dark as well as light. Menus and
popovers move to a float surface (the hover tone in dark) with the
float shadow.

The selected rail row gets an accent wash and a 3px accent edge. The
send buttons are a clear accent when there is something to send and a
quiet inset when not; the Home button carries data-empty for that, since
submitting an empty box does nothing. The assistant card becomes an
accent wash with a square icon.

New surfaces spec checks the pane edge, the selected row, both send
buttons and the popover in both themes. The voice library empty-state
spec now waits for the layout to settle before comparing two boxes.

Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5

* feat(ui): tidy the sidebar header and mark the current row with a dot

The header gives the configured horizontal logo a fixed width and
centres it in a 72px band, lined up with the nav icons. The collapsed
rail shows the configured icon logo centred, and its nav rows become
40px tiles centred in the 64px rail. The current row gets the kit's
accent dot, hidden in the rail.

The theme, language and account controls stay in the sidebar footer:
the app has no global search or command palette to put in a top bar, so
a bar would only hold controls that already have a place.

Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5

* fix(ui): centre the avatar in the collapsed sidebar rail

The collapsed avatar link was set to "flex: 0", which gives it a zero
flex basis; with min-width: 0 the link shrank to its padding and the
icon overflowed from the link's left edge, about 14px right of the
icon column. Use "flex: 0 0 auto" in the collapsed and tablet rail.

The footer controls now share the nav icon column in the expanded
sidebar too (6px footer padding, 40px control boxes), and the tablet
rail gets the same footer padding and hidden language code as the
collapsed one.

New spec measures the centre x of the nav icons, mark, avatar,
language, theme and collapse icons in the collapsed, expanded and
tablet states, in both themes, and asserts they agree within 1px.

Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5

* fix(ui): size the console and settings rails and stack settings on phones

The Operate console rail, the Settings section rail and the account tab
bar still used 13px text and the old underline tabs. They now use the
15px nav size, 40px rows and the segmented tab control. Form row labels
are 15px with 13px hints.

On a phone the Settings section rail sat beside the form and squeezed
every row into a few characters. Below 720px the rail stacks above the
content as a scrolling row and form rows wrap their control below the
label. The save button no longer carries the icon font class, which
drew a missing glyph before its label. The language menu is wide enough
to keep Bahasa Indonesia on one line.

Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5

* build(ui): update the vendored UI kit snapshot to 0.3.0

Take the 0.3.0 snapshot: the sprite now carries the full outline icon set,
and the new icons/fa-map.json maps Font Awesome names to icon ids. The map
lets the app move off Font Awesome in the following commits. The lock file
is regenerated with the new checksums.

Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5

* feat(ui): add an Icon component backed by the kit sprite

Icon draws an inline svg that points into the kit's outline sprite. The
sprite is inlined into the page once, so the references resolve under any
base path and in the embedded build without a request. Icons size with the
font (1em), take currentColor, hide from assistive tech unless given a
title, and spin on request. An unknown id draws a neutral circle.

FaIcon and iconFromFa resolve Font Awesome names through the kit's map,
for names that arrive at run time. iconHtml does the same for markup built
as a string. The GitHub and Apple marks are small local glyphs, as the kit
ships no brand marks.

Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5

* refactor(ui): draw shared components and helpers with Icon

Replace the Font Awesome elements in the shared components and in the
utility modules with the Icon component. Lookup tables now hold kit icon
ids instead of class strings. Code-block copy buttons and artifact cards,
which build HTML strings, use iconHtml and a sanitizer-safe slot.

Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5

* refactor(ui): draw model, backend and account pages with Icon

Replace the Font Awesome elements on the home, models, backends, import,
settings, login, account and users pages with the Icon component.

Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5

* refactor(ui): draw chat, studio and recognition pages with Icon

Replace the Font Awesome elements on the chat, media generation, talk and
face and voice pages with the Icon component. The talk status table keeps
its spin and pulse states as Icon props. The connected and error states
now use a dotted circle and an alert circle, so they differ from the idle
ring by shape as well as by colour.

Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5

* refactor(ui): draw agent, node and operate pages with Icon

Replace the Font Awesome elements on the agents, skills, collections,
jobs, fine-tune, quantize, nodes, swarm, usage, traces and activity
pages with the Icon component. Two class strings on layout elements held
leftover button and icon classes from an earlier merge; they are cleaned
up so the elements keep only their own classes.

Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5

* style(ui): size and align icons for the svg component

Icon rules that targeted the font element now target the svg: the
descendant "i" selectors in App.css and auth.css become ".lai-icon". The
svg is 1.2em with a 2 unit line so it matches the visual size of the old
glyphs at the 12 to 16px sizes the app uses, sits on the text baseline,
and follows the context font size. Large empty-state marks get a lighter
line. Menu icons get a 16px box and the readiness badge icons keep their
20px circle with padding. Add the pulse used by the talk status.

Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5

* build(ui): remove Font Awesome

No source file references the icon font any more. Drop the package and its
stylesheet import. The build no longer ships the solid, regular and brand
font files.

Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5

* fix(ui): keep focus traps off the svg use references

The dialog and drawer focus traps collect focusable elements with a
"[href]" selector. An icon's use element carries an href, so it became the
first "focusable" element and Tab at the end of the dialog stopped there
instead of wrapping to the first button. Match "a[href]" instead.

Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5

* style(ui): keep icon sizes overridable and set the line width per svg

Give the icon base rule zero specificity so a rule that sizes one icon
(nav column, menu box, avatar, language switcher) wins whatever its order
in the file. The sprite symbols fix their own line width; the inlined copy
drops it so the width set on each svg applies, as the --lai-stroke custom
property, and large marks can use a lighter line. Pin the avatar and the
language globe to the boxes the sidebar alignment spec expects. Import the
map as JSON with an import attribute so Node can load it in the spec.

Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5

* test(ui): select icons by the svg markup and cover the sprite

Specs that found icons by their Font Awesome class now select the svg by
its data-icon. The dead-icon audit checks that every svg resolves to a
sprite symbol and has a size. The class hygiene spec fails on any
remaining Font Awesome class. A new spec checks every mapped icon id has
a symbol, that the sprite is inlined once, that an icon paints at the root
and under a forwarded path prefix, and that Font Awesome names map as
documented.

* build(ui): update the vendored UI kit snapshot to 0.4.0

Take the 0.4.0 snapshot: hub tabs with count and attention badges, the six
chart series tokens and the grid colour in the theme contract, and sample
themes on a calmer palette. The kit headers are renamed and the lock file
is regenerated with the new checksums, as for the earlier snapshots.

Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5

* style(ui): switch the theme to the calm palette

Rewrite the LocalAI theme on the calm palette: a muted teal accent on a
near-neutral green-grey canvas, desaturated status colours, no glow and no
coloured shadows. The theme fills every role of the shared UI kit's 0.4.0
theme contract for light and dark, including the six chart series and the
grid line. The bridge in theme.css keeps the old --color-* names working,
adds the dark surface ladder (card, raised, float) and a strong edge, and
points the fixed data hues at the chart series.

Two values differ from the first sketch. The dark text on the accent fill is
#021512 instead of #04201d: it reads 5.58:1 on the fill at rest and 6.4:1 on
the hover fill, against 5.08:1 at rest for the lighter value. The light
control edge is #6b7d7a. The kit's contrast script passes for all text pairs
(4.5:1), control and focus pairs (3:1) and series colours (3:1).

Leftovers that no longer fit the palette are fixed: the usage chart takes
the six series colours in order, the audio and animation canvases fall back
to the new accent, the face box loses its glow, and two gradient fills are
now flat. The theme tests expect the new canvas colours.

Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5

* feat(ui): replace the console rail with hub tab bars

Build and Operate no longer open a second navigation rail beside the page.
Each is a hub: one row of the kit's hub tabs above the page, with count and
attention badges that scroll sideways on a phone. Every URL and route stays
as it was, plus a new /app/build landing page that lists the Build tools
with a line each.

Build tabs: Overview, Agents, Skills, Memory, Jobs, Fine-Tune, Quantize,
Import, Voices (recognition and library) and Faces. Operate tabs: Status,
This machine, Swarm (distributed mode only), Runtime (backends, activity,
failover), Traffic (usage, traces, middleware) and Settings (settings,
users), plus the API link. A tab that holds several pages shows a second row
of links, and a sub-page such as a node detail keeps its tab highlighted.
The feature and admin gates decide which tabs are drawn, and badges show only
values the Operate summary already has.

The sidebar lists Build and Operate under a Workspace label next to the
Create group. The voice library moves under Build and the model import page
gains the Build tab bar. The old rail styles, the rail signals and the
console config are removed, and the Operate overview docs describe the tab
bar. The specs that drove the rail now drive the tabs, and a new spec covers
the tab for each route, gating, badges and the phone layout.

* feat(ui): rebuild Home as a calm console

Home now opens on one command bar: the model chip shows which models are
warm, the MCP chip and attach buttons sit beside it, and Send is a solid
button with an Enter glyph. Typing "/" opens a grouped, keyboard-driven
action list built on the kit command list; every action has a destination
in the product.

Memory use folds into a one-line strip that opens into the loaded models,
with Stop per model and Stop all. It opens by itself while a model is being
staged and after a failure, and shows nodes and aggregate memory in a
cluster. The list of resident models carries no per-model size because the
API reports none.

"Jump back in" lists the conversations stored in the browser, one card per
day, with j and k to move, Enter to resume and delete with an undo toast.
First run keeps the install steps and the recommended models. The assistant
prompt is a dismissible line, the library links are one quiet row and the
API section is collapsed. Chat accepts an empty new-chat hand-off for /new.

Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5

* test(ui): cover the Home console

Update the Home specs for the new structure and add specs for the slash
menu, the model chip, the memory strip (expand, stop, staging, failure,
cluster), the resume list (grouping, j/k, Enter, delete with undo), first
run, the send hand-off, a non-admin user and the phone layout.

Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5

* feat(ui): add the fit, disk and cleanup helpers for the models page

Pure functions and hooks that the rebuilt Models page reads, with node
tests for the rules.

modelLedger turns an estimate and the memory budget into one of three
verdicts (fits, spills to CPU, over) with the headroom in bytes, and
reads the models disk from the resources reading. The disk counts as low
under 10 percent or under 20 GB free, and is absent when the server
reports none or runs as a cluster controller.

cleanupPlan ranks installed models from what the API reports: loaded,
pinned, or named by an agent, a task, a failover chain or an alias keeps
a model protected; another installed build of the same gallery model is a
duplicate; disabled models rank above idle ones. The API records no last
use or use count, so none is used. When a lookup fails, nothing is called
safe.

useModelRemoval holds a removal in the browser for an undo window and
sends the existing delete call only when the window ends. Leaving the page
drops the batch without deleting anything. The undo toast takes optional
labels so other pages can reuse it.

Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5

* feat(ui): rebuild Models as a ledger with a disk strip and cleanup review

Explore is one dense table. Each row carries the size, a solid memory bar
and the headroom in words ("3.7 free", "+1.5 on CPU", "0.9 over"), worked
out from the estimate at the chosen context length. Capability chips show
the server's count for each facet, search keeps its meaning and "/" jumps
to it, and a density switch (also "d") picks comfortable or compact rows.
Selection is a surface step and a check, never a rail. Arrow keys move,
Enter installs and Esc closes the inspector, which keeps the fit summary,
VRAM by context chart, variants, files, links, tags and licence. A failed
install shows its error in the row with a Retry that dismisses the old
failure first. A failed or empty listing says which it is, and a host with
no GPU is measured against memory and says so.

Installed uses the same table with state filters that carry counts, a
state per row, Load or Stop on the row, the row menu and the sort by size.
Sizes come from the files the gallery lists, so a model it does not know
shows a dash.

A strip in the header shows the free space on the models disk. It turns
amber under 10 percent or under 20 GB free, hides when the server reports
no disk or runs as a cluster controller, and opens the cleanup review.
Explore says how much an install leaves free.

The review ranks installed models as Safe to remove, Probably safe and
Your call from real facts only, lists protected models with the reason,
and says plainly that usage history is not recorded. A sticky bar shows
what a choice frees. Confirming runs a dry run that checks again and lists
what will go. Removal waits 30 seconds with an undo; nothing is deleted
before that, and leaving the page deletes nothing.

The old rail, filter band and popover styles are removed.

Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5

* test(ui): cover the Models ledger, Installed table and cleanup review

Update the Models, lifecycle, cluster fit, height, search focus and
surfaces specs for the table and inspector, keeping what each one checks.

New specs, on a shared 41-model gallery stub with three machine profiles:
the fit bar and headroom words for a 24 GB card, an 8 GB laptop and a host
with no GPU; facet counts, search, "/" and Escape; selection, arrow keys,
Enter to install, density; the disk strip when normal, low and hidden; and
the states (loading, empty, offline, install failed, phone). Installed
covers filters with counts, row actions, the row menu, sizes and sort.
The cleanup specs cover grouping, protected models, the honest-data note,
the effect bar, the dry run, the undo window, a failed delete, leaving the
page, and the phone sheet.

Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5

* feat(ui): add the placement helpers and the estimate hooks

The Placement section and the model page need the same few rules, so they
sit in plain functions that can be read and tested alone.

placement.js holds what gpu_layers, tensor_split and main_gpu mean (unset
asks for every layer and the llama.cpp engine trims it, zero is CPU only,
99999999 is the value LocalAI itself writes for all layers), the device
list taken from the resources reading, the split by free memory, the part
of an estimate that grows with context (read from two lengths, since that
term is linear), the fit states with their limit (95 percent of free
memory, and the leftover has to fit in system memory too), and a bisection
for the largest layer count whose estimate fits. The estimate returns one
total and no layer count, so the search runs over 1 to 256 and stops at
the first count that no longer changes it.

modelWalk.js keeps the order of the list a model page was opened from, in
memory and in session storage, for the previous and next buttons.

usePlacementEstimate reads /api/models/vram-estimate for a choice, again at
twice the context, and with every layer, and keeps readings for the
session. useModelPage reads a gallery entry by name, an estimate by
context size (from the model's own files when the gallery does not list
it), the builds and the loaded models. usePlacementConfig edits the four
placement keys of an installed model and saves only what changed.
useModelActions is the Load, Stop, disable, pin and remove logic of the
Installed table, shared with the model page. MemoryBar is one solid bar
with a tick at the capacity of its pool; over capacity it grows past the
tick and the tick turns red.

Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5

* feat(ui): add the Placement section to the model editor

Run this model on: CPU only (gpu_layers: 0), Auto (the key stays unset) or
Custom. Custom takes a number, has an All layers button that writes
99999999, and shows a slider only when the estimate reports the model's
layer count, which it does not today. Context size has presets and a
number field because the KV cache follows it. With two or more GPUs there
is a split (written as percentages, with a button that takes them from the
free memory of each card) and a main GPU.

A bar per GPU and one for system memory show what other programs use, the
model's weights and working memory, and the part that grows with context,
with the room left or how far over it is. Under them a verdict in plain
words: Fits in GPU, Spills to CPU, Too many layers for the GPU, Runs on CPU
only, No GPU found, Not enough memory. It says "slower" and never a
multiplier, because the estimate has none. Fit it for me asks the estimate
for the largest layer count that fits the free GPU memory and says what it
set, with Undo; it is hidden when the estimate is unavailable or the host
has no GPU. Loading shows skeletons, an unavailable estimate shows a note
with Retry, and a server that schedules onto other machines shows no bars,
because its device list is the controller's.

The editor shows the section for an installed model, with a link in its
section rail. Auto sends null for the key, since a patch only merges, and
a null read back opens as Auto. The docs describe the section and what each
mode writes.

Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5

* feat(ui): open a model on its own page

A model has an address, /app/models/<name>, for an installed model and a
gallery entry alike. Open it from the arrow at the end of a row, a double
click, "o" on the selected row, the inspector's Open details button, or a
tap on a phone. The title block holds the main action: Install with a
chevron that chooses the build, or Load and Stop with a menu (disable, pin,
edit configuration, logs, delete with a confirm). A strip answers whether
it fits, what it does and what installing leaves free.

Tabs: Overview (about, a memory bar, state, the pages it opens in, and the
agents, tasks, chains and aliases that name it); Fit and memory (verdict,
context sizes, the bar split into weights and context, and memory by
context against the limit, with a data table); Variants and files (builds
with size and fit, install any, the files of the chosen build). For an
installed model also Usage and history, which says what the API does not
record instead of drawing an empty chart, Configuration, which is the
Placement section with the file it writes and a link to the full editor,
and Logs, the backend log viewer without its page. Keys 1 to 6 switch
tabs, [ ] and j k walk the list the page was opened from, Esc or Backspace
go back.

The list stays mounted behind the page, so Back finds its view, search,
filters, selection and scroll as they were, and focus returns to the row's
arrow. The page covers loading, an unknown name with the closest matches,
the gallery being out of reach, an install in progress with Cancel, and a
failed install with Retry.

The docs describe the page and its keys.

Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5

* test(ui): cover the model page and the Placement section

New specs for the model page: reaching it from Explore, Installed, a
double click, "o", a pasted link and a phone tap; the walker and Back with
the search, a filter, the selection, the Installed view and the scroll
kept, and no second read of the gallery; the title block, the answer strip,
tabs by click, keys and arrows; Fit and memory, builds and files with the
install call each one makes; an installed model's actions, used-by,
the honest usage tab, configuration and logs; loading, an unknown name,
offline, an install in flight and a failed one; and the phone.

New specs for Placement: every mode and the keys it writes, the slider
only when a layer count exists, the context presets, the bars and every
verdict, two GPUs, no GPU, a cluster, an unread machine, a loading and an
unavailable estimate, Fit it for me and Undo, and the section in the model
editor with its save.

The phone tap on a row now opens the page, so the two phone specs that
expected the inspector as the page check the page and keep the inspector
check for a window between a phone and a desk.

* feat(ui): link Studio results and open workspaces from a prompt

Each workspace now records the result it was made from (parentId and an
edge kind such as take, animate or to-3d) and reads a prompt, model, size,
count and source from the query string, so one page can hand work to
another. A source result is fetched from the server's own output file and
becomes the start image, the picture for 3D, or the audio file. A note on
the page says when the source loaded or could not be loaded.

Diarization had no history; it now keeps the file name, the model and a
speaker count, never the recording. Prompts are cut at 2000 characters
when stored. The pure helpers (type suggestion, grouping, lineage layout,
favourites, clearing) have node tests.

Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5

* feat(ui): rebuild the Studio front page as a composer with your work

The front page is a prompt box with a chip per type, a type suggestion
from the words, starters, and the options each workspace accepts. Generate
opens the workspace with those filled in. A type with no model is a dashed
chip that shows a gallery model, its size, memory need and an Install
button only when picked; the typed words stay while it installs.

Under it, Your work lists results from every workspace as a masonry with
filters, counts, favourites and a Clear history action. Results made from
each other stack into a project tile and open as a lineage board with a
dock for running a new take or branching to the next step; steps the
destination cannot start from yet are disabled with the reason.

The docs describe the page, what is stored in the browser, and the query
parameters a workspace accepts.

Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5

* test(ui): cover the Studio composer, your work and the lineage view

Specs for the type suggestion, the keys, hand-off to each workspace, the
install path for a missing model, the masonry filters, favourites and
clearing, stacking, the lineage board, new take and branch, steps that
are disabled with a reason, and the phone layout. Existing Studio specs
move from lanes to chips with the same intent.

Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5

* feat(ui): add the shared Studio workspace frame and move Images onto it

The seven Studio workspaces get one layout: a row of type tabs, a compose
card (optional sources as chips, a prompt with starters, a model chip,
the essential options as chips, an Advanced fold that names what is
inside, the memory the model needs, and one action with the reason when
it cannot run), a run area, and a strip of recent results of the type.

The run area shows a job card with the time that has passed and an
indeterminate bar, because these endpoints report no phase or percentage;
a failure with what the server said and one action; or the result with a
toolbar: Favourite (the list the front page keeps), Download, Use in (the
hand-off targets, disabled with the reason when a destination cannot
start from the result), Re-run with edits (the take's values go back in
the form, changed fields are outlined and listed) and Lineage. A type
with no model shows the install note from the front page.

Images is the first workspace on the frame. It keeps its size, count,
steps, seed, negative prompt, source image and reference images, and its
history writes, including the parent link and edge of a hand-off run.
useMediaHistory.addEntry now returns the id of the entry it stored. The
docs describe the workspace page.

* feat(ui): move Video onto the workspace frame

Video keeps its size list, duration, frame rate, steps, seed, CFG scale,
frame count, negative prompt, start and end image and avatar audio.
The start and end image are source chips, the avatar audio opens the
recording and paste input from a chip, and the rest sit in the Advanced
fold. A start image from a hand-off shows as a chip with its picture.
Results play in the video player with the shared toolbar.

* feat(ui): move TTS onto the workspace frame

TTS keeps the saved-voice picker for cloning models, the typed voice for
the others, the voice library deep link, and the delivery instructions,
which now sit in the Advanced fold. The result is the waveform player
with the words under it. The stored entry also keeps the voice id so
Re-run with edits can select the same saved voice.

* feat(ui): move Sound onto the workspace frame

Sound keeps its Simple and Advanced modes and every field of both: the
description, instrumental, vocal language, caption, lyrics, BPM,
duration, key, language, time signature and think mode. The mode switch,
instrumental and duration are in the compose card, the rest in a More
options fold. The stored entry keeps all of the fields, so Re-run with
edits restores the form as it was.

* feat(ui): move Transform onto the workspace frame

Transform keeps its audio and reference inputs with upload and record,
the echo test, the key=value parameters (now in the Advanced fold), the
input and output spectra and the three waveform players. The audio that
was chosen shows before the run, waiting to be transformed. Re-run with
edits puts back the model and parameters and fetches the audio and
reference the server kept for that run.

* feat(ui): move 3D onto the workspace frame

3D keeps the picture input with paste and webcam, the animation
operations a model declares, quality and background, the shape and
material steps, guidance and seed, the GLB and animation viewers, the
remesh control and the download. A 3D result now has a title from the
motion prompt when it has no label, so the strip and the front page name
animation results by what was asked. Re-run with edits is shown disabled
with the reason, because only a small thumbnail of the picture is kept.

* feat(ui): move Diarization onto the workspace frame

Diarization keeps its model and recording inputs, the option to prepare
speakers to remember, the clean-speech previews, naming and remembering a
speaker, and the history entry with only the file name, model and
counts. The result now shows a timeline with one lane per speaker, the
talk time of each speaker, and the segments with their start time and
text. RTTM, SRT (only when the run has text) and JSON are built in the
browser from the result. The helpers for talk time, axis ticks and the
two text formats have node tests.

* refactor(ui): remove the styles and lists the old workspace layout used

Nothing renders the two-column workbench, the control column, the old
history lists, the generation progress tiles, the TTS voice picker or the
result echo any more. The inline-style baseline drops with them.

* test(ui): cover the workspace frame and one run per type

Specs for the type tabs, the compose card and its reason when Generate

progress, a failed run and its one action, the install note, the strip
with its favourites filter, Use in with its disabled steps, Lineage, the
parent link, Re-run with edits and its list of changes, deleting and
clearing, and the hand-off note. One run through each of Video, TTS,
Sound, Transform, 3D and Diarization, the phone layout of all seven, and
reduced motion. Existing Studio specs move from the old control column to
the compose card with the same intent.

* feat(ui): rebuild the chat thread with raised user turns, prose replies and one-line activity

Your messages are raised blocks on the right at a 760 px measure and the
model's replies are plain prose under its name and a warm or not loaded
dot. Reasoning, tool calls and their results fold into one quiet line
that opens inline into steps. Code blocks carry a Copy button and a
Canvas button that opens that block in the canvas, image attachments are
thumbnails that open in the lightbox, and files are chips. Per-message
actions show on hover, on focus and on the last turn, and a turn takes
focus so the arrow keys and C, E, R and B work. A failed reply keeps the
text written so far and shows the reason with one Retry action.

The Agent chat page keeps the older rules: the new styles are scoped to
the chat page and use their own class names.

Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5

* feat(ui): use the Home command bar as the Chat composer

Chat now ends in the same object as Home: the model chip, the MCP chip,
a Canvas chip, the message box with attach buttons, a solid Send and the
hint line, with the slash menu on the kit command list. The slash menu
lists what Chat can do today (switch model, new chat, conversations,
manage mode, canvas, find, settings, export, clear). While a reply is
streaming Send becomes Stop, which Esc also presses, and Up in an empty
box edits your last message. Attached images show as thumbnails and a
line under the bar carries the speed and the token count.

HomeComposer takes optional props for this (extra chips, its own slash
list, Stop, paste, a stricter Enter); Home passes none of them.

* feat(ui): open conversations from a Ctrl K menu with day groups, undo and a slim header

The conversations list opens as a centred menu on Ctrl or Cmd K. It
groups chats by day like the Home resume list, shows the model that
answered and the time, searches names and message text, and moves with
the arrow keys. Enter opens a chat, F2 renames it and Delete removes it.
Removing a chat hides the row and shows the kit undo toast; the chat is
deleted for good only when the undo time ends. Rename, duplicate, copy
and export are on each row, as before.

The header is one slim bar: the Chats button, the chat name (click to
rename), a context meter when the context size is known, settings and a
More menu with rename, duplicate, copy, export, model info, keyboard
shortcuts and clear. A dialog lists the shortcuts the page answers to.

Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5

* feat(ui): show loaded state, capabilities and fit in the Chat model switcher

The model chip in Chat opens the same list as Home, grouped as Loaded
now and Installed. Each row says warm or not loaded and marks models that
understand images. When the list opens, the page reads the host memory
once and asks the server to estimate each listed model at the chat's
context size (up to twelve, three at a time), then shows what the model
needs and whether it fits: free memory, how much would run on the CPU, or
how far over the machine it is. A model with no estimate shows no fit
text, and no load time is shown because the API does not report one. A
memory bar closes the list.

The picker takes the model list from the page when it has one, and
useModels can skip its own request.

Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5

* feat(ui): move chat settings into a sheet and add find in chat, jump to latest and a wider canvas

Settings open as a kit sheet: the system prompt, temperature, top P and
top K (each says "model default" until it is changed and has a Reset),
the context size with quick sizes and a note that it only drives the
meter, Manage mode and Focus mode, the model info for admins with its
Edit config button, and Clear conversation behind a confirmation. The old
slide-out drawer and the model info panel are gone.

Ctrl or Cmd Shift F (or the search button, or /find) opens a search bar
over the thread. It marks matches in the messages already on the page,
shows "n of m" and steps with Enter and Shift+Enter. Nothing is sent to
the server. Jump to latest is a pill above the composer. Esc stops a
reply, then closes the search, then closes the canvas.

The canvas panel gets the kit look: tabs, a Code and Preview switch, Copy
and Download, a full-page layout on narrow windows, and translated
labels. The Agent chat page shares it and gets the same look.

Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5

* feat(ui): add the empty, no-model, loading and phone states to Chat

An empty chat opens with the composer under one line, starters to try,
whether the model is loaded, and the Jump back in list: the same rows as
Home, read from the chats the page holds. With no chat model installed,
an install card offers the starter models for this hardware, the gallery
and import, and the composer stays so the text is not lost.

While a reply waits for a model, a load card shows what the page knows:
the phase the server names, the node, the bytes and the time left when the
server reports them, and a progress bar. A model that is just not loaded
yet gets a plain note, with no invented phases or estimates. The foot
warns when the context is nearly full.

On a phone the header drops its labels, the model list and the settings
open as sheets from the bottom, per-message actions stay in view and the
canvas takes the whole page.

* feat(ui): rebuild Talk as a calm voice page over what the connection really does

Talk is one stage and one transcript. The stage has the pipeline chip,
the voice and language chips, an outline orb that follows the real
microphone and playback levels, a heading and a sentence for the current
state, and the controls. The transcript lists You, Reply, Tool and Result
lines and can be copied. Session settings (instructions, voice, language,
tools, Manage mode and the pipeline's parts) open in a sheet.

The states are the ones the code reaches: no pipeline model, idle,
connecting, listening, thinking (also while a tool runs), speaking, an
interrupted reply (the server cancelled it; a note marks the cut), a
blocked microphone, a link that failed during a session, and any other
error with its reason and a link to the traces. Push to talk and
hands-free are not on the page, so they are not shown. Diagnostics keep
their waveform, spectrum and stats, drawn in theme colours.

The page text moves into the talk namespace, and the old Talk and
visualizer styles and the inline-style count go down with the rebuild.

* refactor(ui): remove the chat styles and strings the rebuilt page replaced

The settings drawer, the model info panel, the bubble avatars, the
conversation menu popover, the context bar, the recent strip, the
staging bar, the file badges and the focus-mode rules have no user now.
Their rules, the Chat page's focus class and seven unused empty-state
strings are removed. The Agent chat page keeps the shared message,
sidebar and input rules it still renders with.

* docs: describe the rebuilt Chat and Talk pages

Add a Chat page under features (thread, message actions and keys, the
message box and its slash actions, the model list with loaded state and
fit, conversations on Ctrl K, settings, find, canvas and the empty,
no-model and loading states) and a Talk section to the realtime API page
with the states the page shows. Manage mode now turns on from the chat
settings or /assistant, and the client MCP steps point at the MCP chip.

Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5

* fix(ui): settle the rough edges of the new Chat and Talk pages

The undo toast sat under the conversations menu, so the Undo button could
not be pressed while the menu was open; the menu, the sheets and the
fullscreen canvas now stay below the toast layer. Esc in a rename box
saved the text through the blur that follows it; it now cancels. The
image viewer closed on Esc only when the page did not re-render on the
same key, so its key listener is registered once and reads the latest
handlers. Keys on a focused message no longer type their letter into the
editor they open, "/" from outside a text field starts a command as it
does on Home, and Esc leaves the page's own dialogs alone.

Code in the canvas is highlighted for languages that have no preview.
The conversations menu drops its key hints on a phone so Clear all
stays in view. Talk hides Test tone while connecting and calls a server
error "Something went wrong", since the call can still be open.

* test(ui): cover the rebuilt Chat and Talk pages

Specs for the thread layout and the activity fold, code blocks, image
thumbnails and the viewer, per-message actions and their keys, a failed
reply with its one Retry, Stop and Esc while streaming, the composer and
every slash action, the conversations menu (groups, search, resume,
rename, delete with undo that ends by itself, one chat left), the model
switcher with loaded state, vision and fit text from stubbed estimates,
the settings sheet, the canvas panel, find in chat, Jump to latest, the
empty, no-model and loading states, the phone layout and reduced motion.
Talk is driven over a fake WebRTC link through idle, connecting,
listening, thinking, speaking, interrupted, blocked, lost, error and no
pipeline, its settings sheet and its phone layout. Node tests cover the
message text helpers and the conversation grouping.

The existing chat specs move to the new structure with the same intent:
the transcript spec now describes the raised turn and the prose reply, and
the render smoke accepts Talk's own header.

* feat(ui): keep a bounded run log for agents in the browser

The server keeps no run history for an agent, so a run is one task and
the events until the agent answers, written to browser storage while the
page watches the stream: up to 50 runs per agent, task, step and answer
text only. Stored chats from the earlier agent chat page read as runs
with stable ids. A run still marked running five minutes after its last
event reads as stopped. Helpers read an agent's config into chips, build
the list of changed fields against the saved config, hide secret values
and offer starting points.

Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5

* feat(ui): rebuild the Agents area around runs

The Agents page shows what needs a look (work in flight, a run that
failed in the last day), then each agent with its model, attached memory
and skills, and a strip of its last 14 runs. An agent has its own page: model,
tools, memory, skills, instructions, a task box and its runs. A run has
an address, shows the thread while it works (steps folded into one line,
the tool in use, the answer as it arrives) and settles into a report
about a second and a half after the agent answers: task, outcome,
follow-ups, evidence and steps, with wide tables opening wider on demand.
A failure says in plain words what happened and offers Run again.

Create and edit fold into sections with a ready mark and a one-line
summary, start from a template or an optional model-written draft, and
open a preview sheet with the config as saved and the changes against
the saved agent. Status becomes a quiet panel in the same language, and
the old chat link opens the agent page.

There is no Stop, approval, steer, version or dry-run control, because
the agent API has no call behind them.

* feat(ui): add helpers for tasks, schedules and job outcomes

Reads a cron expression the way the server does (five fields or an @
shortcut), checks it, and puts the common shapes in words. The next run
is left out on purpose, because the schedule follows the server clock,
which the browser cannot read. Also groups jobs by day, sums the last
seven days, and gives each job one outcome line from its result or
error. A rerun call starts a new job with the same parameters and media.

Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5

* feat(ui): rebuild the Jobs area around runs

The Jobs page opens with one sentence about the last seven days, then
the tasks (model, schedule in words, last 14 jobs, enabled switch, Run
now) and a run history grouped by day. Each row has an outcome sentence
and opens to the error or the start of the result with one next action.
Deleting a task waits 30 seconds with an undo button.

A task opens as a page with its recent runs, its prompt with the gaps
marked and its schedule. The task form folds into sections, takes a
schedule as a preset or a checked cron expression, warns about prompt
gaps the schedule does not fill, and has a preview sheet. A job opens
as a document: task, outcome, delivery and the recorded steps; a failed
job says what happened and offers Run again.

Run now now sends attached media through the job call, which is the
only one that takes it. "Clear History" only ever cancelled running
jobs, so it is now called Stop running jobs. Webhook headers of a saved
task show as JSON instead of [object Object].

* feat(ui): add helpers that say who uses a skill or a collection

An agent loads a skill when skills are on and the skill is in its selection (an empty selection means every skill). It reads the one collection that carries its own name, when its knowledge base is on. The helpers derive that from the saved agent configs, build the config that adds or removes a skill or a collection, and estimate tokens as characters divided by four. Removing the last selected skill switches skills off, because an empty selection would mean every skill.

Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5

* feat(ui): rebuild Skills and Memory as one library

Skills and collections sit in a list with an open item beside it. Each row says who uses it, read from the saved agent configs, or says it is not used yet. Chat reads neither, so it is never named. An item opens in a pane with a Used by strip (names link to the agent, a small x removes it, with undo) and an Add to menu that shows what the addition costs. A collection can be added only to the agent that carries its name.

The Memory pane searches the collection alone and shows ranked passages with scores, lists web sources with their refresh interval and the files, shows the server message when an upload fails, and names the endpoints and where files stay. The Simulate a message sheet runs a collection search and shows an agent's skills with a token estimate. It runs no model. The collection details route now opens the same page.

Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5

* feat(ui): show use and cost in the agent form pickers

* feat(ui): add helpers for the Operate status page and backend rows

Pure functions for the parts that need rules. They work out the memory
pool the page measures (GPU memory, system memory, or the workers of a
cluster that are answering), which pools are too full, the headline and
the four ledger rows, the geometry of the capacity chart, and what
removing a backend would leave without a runtime (models name their
backend, and a meta backend names the concrete one it points at). A
second set says what a backend row states: installing, queued, removing,
failed, update available, current or absent.

LocalAI keeps no memory history, so the chart reads a bounded buffer of
readings the page took itself and says so. A reading with no total is
dropped rather than drawn as zero.

Two hooks are shared by the pages that need them. One retries a failed
operation after moving the failure into the record. The other holds a
cancel for an undo window, because the server cannot take a cancel back.

Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5

* feat(ui): rebuild Operate Status, This machine, Backends, Activity and Logs

Status opens with one sentence ("2 things need you", or "Everything is
running") and four rows: Needs you, Capacity, Running now and Recent
failures. A row with a problem opens by itself and holds the button that
deals with it: Update a backend, Retry or Dismiss a failed operation,
Unload a model. A quiet row stays one line. A new installation gets a
first-run screen, a cluster sums the memory of the workers that are
answering, and a page still waiting for an answer says so. The chart
under the rows is drawn from readings the page took while it was open
and is labelled that way, because LocalAI keeps no memory history.

This machine leads with GPU memory as one bar, then host memory split by
running model, then VRAM, RAM, CPU and disk with a bar each. The running
models become a kit table with the same menu and stop dialog.

Backends is one list with Installed and Catalog views. A row says what
the backend is doing (a progress bar with Cancel, Queued, Failed with
Retry, Update 1.2.0, Current), carries the one button that matters, and
opens in place. Removing a backend names the models and the meta
backends that would stop working. Check for updates, Update all, From
URL and a first-run recommendation for llama-cpp are in the header.

Activity keeps its three sections as quiet rows. Cancel waits eight
seconds with an undo toast, because the server cannot take a cancel
back; a cancelled install can be started again from the record. Logs
gets a process list, a picker, stream and text filters, Follow and
Times switches, and a Clear with an undo window.

Not shown, because the API has no data for them: GPU temperature and
power, a size per backend, an earlier version to roll back to, a
dependency lookup beyond the models and meta backends that name a
backend, and models that failed to load.

* test(ui): cover Operate Status, This machine, Backends, Activity and Logs

New specs for the Status headline and ledger (healthy, needs attention,
one thing, a full memory pool alone, loading, first run, cluster), its
actions (Update, Retry, Dismiss, Unload with its dialog), the capacity
chart built from readings taken while the page is open and bounded, the
phone layout, no coloured edge on a row, and reduced motion.

The Backends specs cover the two views, install progress with Cancel and
its undo window, Retry on a failed install, Update, Update all, Check for
updates, removal with the models and meta backends it would break,
Install from URL, the first-run recommendation, a cluster, and a phone.
Activity gains cancel with undo, Cancel now, a second cancel, leaving the
page, progress, and starting a cancelled install again. Logs covers the
stream and text filters, Follow, Times, Export, Clear with undo, the
process picker and list. This machine covers the GPU strip, several GPUs,
no GPU and Add a machine.

Existing specs keep their intent and follow the new structure: rows open
in place instead of in a pane, Update replaces Upgrade, the notice spec
now pins that an update is a row state and not a banner or a rail, and a
cancel waits for its undo window.

* feat(ui): add helpers for the Swarm pages

Pure functions for what the pages work out from the cluster API: a node's
state in words, which nodes a placement rule may use, what a rule would
ask for, what a drain or a lost node would leave without service, the
nodes a bulk backend update reaches, and the join commands for a worker,
a peer instance and a memory shard. Hooks read the roster, the loaded
replicas and the rules.

Everything runs in the browser from data the page already holds, and
says when it cannot see free memory or disk.

Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5

* feat(ui): rebuild the Swarm hub: nodes, node page, placement rules, failover

Nodes is a sortable table with comfortable and compact rows, a Needs
attention filter by reason, a map of the cluster that is not drawn on a
phone, the running models, and a bulk backend update for the nodes that
drifted. A node is a page: state, vitals, a drain preview computed from
the loaded replicas and the rules, tabs for models, backends, logs and
capacity and labels, and Remove that asks for the node's name.

Placement rules are written as sentences, show where each model is
loaded now, and edit in a side sheet with a preview of the nodes a draft
could use. Deleting a rule waits a few seconds so it can be taken back.
Failover keeps its chains, adds what the router does when a worker stops
answering and a per-node preview of what would stop. Add a node covers a
registered worker, a peer instance and a memory shard, with a command to
copy and a live line that says when the machine arrived. P2P keeps its
page in the same vocabulary, and the node logs page follows the local
logs page.

Previews are labelled as worked out in the browser. Per-GPU readings and
node events are not drawn because the API does not return them. Failover
moves to Swarm when distributed mode is on. Legacy fleet components and
their styles are removed.

and its preview, delete with undo) and failover on a cluster. Node
detail covers its tabs, the drain preview and its dialog, resume, remove
with the typed name, a node that stopped answering, and unload.

The nodes specs follow the new structure and keep their intent: the
table, filters, grouping, pagination, bulk actions, the map, and running
models with stop, logs and the loading, error and empty states. The

Pure functions for what the pages work out from the usage ledger, the
trace summary, the trace buffers and the resources reading: the shared
time window, grouping, sorting and filtering of usage rows, chart series
and axes that start at zero, the overview figures, per-model statistics,
the state of a trace and the words for a failure, the backend operations
that ran during a request, CSV export, the Prometheus metric list and
scrape config, and a bounded buffer of host readings.

A figure whose source cannot say is null, never zero. The trace summary
call takes the window in hours, and a helper reads /metrics with its
status.

* feat(ui): rebuild the Traffic hub: overview, usage, models, host, traces, middleware

Traffic opens on an overview: five figures (requests, failed, p95, tokens
in and out) and three charts, each naming its source. A second row of
links reaches Usage, Models, GPU and host, Traces, Middleware and
Prometheus, and one time window is shared by the first three.

Usage groups by model, user or API key, filters, sorts, opens a row on its
own chart, exports the rows it holds as CSV or JSON in the browser, and
keeps the opt-in cost estimate and the quota forecast. A user who is not
an admin sees only their own numbers. Models joins the ledger, the
backend-operation buffer and the loaded models. GPU and host shows the
current reading and two charts of readings taken since the page opened.

Traces gets filters, a settings strip and an explained off state. An API
request is a page: the error LocalAI recorded, a timeline with the backend
operations that ran meanwhile, and bodies that stay closed until revealed.
Middleware draws the pipeline as five steps and shows the rules of the
selected step. Prometheus documents /metrics, checks it against the
server and gives a scrape config to copy.

Alerts is not built: LocalAI has no alert rules. Per-model latency
percentiles, GPU utilisation and compare with the previous period are not
drawn because the API does not return them. Legacy usage, trace and
middleware styles and the usage source components are removed.

what it leaves out and why, the trace page and its reveal, the GPU and
host readings kept since the page opened, and the Prometheus endpoint.
Link it from the operations index, the tracing page and the middleware
page.

* fix(ui): let metric names wrap in the Prometheus table on a phone

The long metric names pushed the type and "on this server" columns out of
view. Names now wrap inside the table.

* feat(ui): rebuild Settings with groups by intent, search, a pending bar and history

The fifteen sections become eight groups by intent: memory and models,
speed and defaults, backends and galleries, access and security,
debugging and traces, agents and responses, swarm and sharing, look and
feel. Search covers names, descriptions, keys and the old section name, and
says where a result used to be.

Edits wait in a bar with Discard, Show diff and Apply. The diff lists old and
new values and the checks the browser can make: durations parse the way Go
parses them, a GPU memory budget is one the server accepts, a gallery box
holds JSON, and warnings repeat what the handler and the field text say.
Apply sends only the changed keys. Undo saves the previous values again; it is
a new save, not a rollback. History lists the changes applied from this
browser, since LocalAI keeps no settings log, and Revert stages the old value.

A value is marked as changed only where the built-in default is known from
the CLI defaults. A row says "Applies now" or "Needs restart" only where the
handler or the docs say so.

Three things were wrong before and are fixed with the rebuild: the gallery
boxes and the shared API keys box were sent under names the server ignores,
the "Enable CSRF Protection" switch showed the disable flag the wrong way
round, and every save restarted peer-to-peer networking because every field
was sent.

* feat(ui): rebuild Users and keys, Account, sign-in, invite and the 404 page

Users and keys is a tabbed page under the Settings tab: people, invites and
API keys. The people table filters by state and role, sorts, approves or
disables (disabling offers an undo that sets the status back), and opens a
side sheet for one person's features, model allow-list and limits. Role,
password reset and delete sit in the row menu; delete asks for the name.
Invites choose a lifetime of 1, 7 or 30 days and show the link once. API
keys can be created with a lifetime, are shown once in full, can be paused,
and are revoked after a ten second undo window in which nothing is sent.
LocalAI lists keys only to their owner, so the tab shows the signed-in
person's own keys and says so.

Account has Profile, Security, API keys and Usage. Usage shows the last 30
days, tokens by model and the limits an admin set. The Security tab now
shows for a GitHub or SSO account and says the password is not theirs to
change.

Sign-in asks for one field per step and draws a provider button only for a
provider /api/auth/status lists. It has the notice for a sign-up that waits
for approval, the first-admin screen, the key-only screen and the invite
page. An address outside the app now gets the 404 page too, which names the
address and lists the places the sidebar lists, with the same gates.

* test(ui): cover Settings, Users and keys, Account, sign-in and the 404 page

Settings: groups, search by name, key and old section, the changed marker
only where a default is known, apply hints, the pending bar and diff, the
checks, apply sending only changed keys, undo as a second save, discard,
history, the CSRF inversion and the gallery and API key wire forms, and the
phone layout.

Users and keys: the table, filters, sort, approve, disable with undo, the row
menu, the access sheet, invites, key creation with a one-time reveal, the
ten second revoke with undo and with a page leave, and the non-admin redirect.
Account, each sign-in variant (error, pending, first admin, key-only, invite,
provider buttons) and the 404 page have specs too. Fixtures are shared with
the screenshot scripts. Existing specs follow the new structure.

Runtime settings: the eight groups and where each old section went, search,
the pending bar, the diff and its checks, apply, undo, the history, and which
settings show a default or an apply note and why. Authentication: the
sign-in screen variants, the Account tabs, key lifetimes, the one-time key
reveal, the revoke undo window, and the fact that keys are listed only to
their owner.

Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5

* fix(ui): let the Settings undo toast stand alone and read back a generated P2P token

The saved message and the undo toast sat on the same spot at the bottom of the
page. The undo toast now carries the saved message.

A new P2P token is made by the server when the page sends 0. The page reads
it back after the save so the field shows the token and not the placeholder.

* fix(ui): fit the users table, API keys and Account figures on a phone

On a phone the users table dropped its Role and Status columns off the screen
edge with the row actions. The role and state now sit under the name, so the
actions stay in view. API key rows no longer put the key icon on a line of its
own, and the three Account figures keep one row.

* feat(ui): rebuild Voices and Faces as one identity family

Voices is one page with three tabs: Speakers (voiceprints for recognising
who is speaking), Speech voices (the text-to-speech reference library,
kept apart because it is a different store) and From a recording (a link
into the diarization workspace). Faces uses the same layout.

Who is this and Same person? give the answer in a sentence with the real
distance and cut-off, a word for how far inside the cut-off it sits, and
a distance scale with the cut-off drawn on it. The cut-off slider re-reads
the answer in the browser; the identify call sends the cut-off, and verify
uses the threshold the model returns. The old confidence percentage is
gone because it is not a probability.

The server has no list call, so the people list stays in the browser and
the page says so. After a search that asked for more people than it got
back, a saved person the server did not return is marked, and people the
server returned that the browser does not know are listed. Nothing is
claimed from a short or cut-off search.

Enrolling is a sheet: sample, name, labels, permission. A copy of the
sample in the browser is opt-in, and an administrator can also keep the
recording as a speech voice in the same step. Removing a person waits ten
seconds behind an Undo toast and sends nothing before then.

Errors say what happened (no face found, model missing, call failed), a
blocked or missing microphone is explained, and a missing model or a
missing permission renders a page that says what turns the feature on
instead of a redirect. Analyze, detect and raw embedding move under
More tools, with attribute guesses off by default.

Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5

* test(ui): cover the Voices and Faces pages

Specs for who is this (match, no match, working, failed, missing model),
the cut-off slider, same person, a blocked, allowed and insecure
microphone, the registry notes and the not-on-the-server marks, the
enrol sheet and its opt-in copy, delete with undo on a fake clock, the
disabled and no-permission states, the phone layout, reduced motion and
Faces. Existing library and diarization specs follow the new structure
and keep their intent. Node tests cover the distance words, scale
layout, stored list and error mapping.

* feat(ui): rebuild the Build landing, Fine-tune, Quantize, Import and Explorer

The Build landing says what each tool is for and what it needs from the
machine: the installed backend, the GPU memory, RAM and disk the server
reports, and a job that is running or the newest one when it failed. A
tool that cannot run says why and what enables it.

Fine-tune and Quantize share one page: set up, a check list that is
redrawn as the form changes, a run view with progress, stages and a log,
and a result with real next steps (export, import, chat, Models). The
checks state only what the server reports. A job needs no estimate the
server cannot make, so none is invented. Stop on a fine-tuning job asks
whether to keep a checkpoint, a failed job shows the server's message,
and a memory failure offers two changes that are applied to a copy of
the setup.

Import is a guided flow: source, review, import, done. The server
returns no preview before an import starts, so the review reads the
spelling of the source, prints the request the form will send and runs
the checks that can be made early. The estimate that arrives when the
import starts is set against free memory and disk. The ambiguity picker
and the Write YAML tab stay.

Explorer shows what GET /networks returns and lists a swarm with POST
/network/add, with a join sheet that carries the token and commands.
Build tools the account may not use say so instead of redirecting.

Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5

* test(ui): cover the Build landing, the tool pages, Import and Explorer

Specs for the landing (a tool ready, missing a backend, with no GPU, a
running or failed job, a feature switched off, a member without admin,
phone, reduced motion), the shared tool pattern for Fine-tune and
Quantize (set up, live checks, start request, running with progress,
chart and log, the stop choice, failure with the server message, finish
with next steps, earlier jobs, the account-disabled page, phone), Import
(source detection, review, checks, ambiguity, running with the estimate
against free memory, done, Write YAML, phone) and Explorer (list, join,
list a swarm, empty, not an explorer, retry, phone).

Existing specs follow the new structure and keep their intent. Node
tests cover the machine facts, tool status, checks, log lines, source
detection, the import request and the join commands.

* docs: describe the Build tool pages, the import flow and the Explorer

Fine-tuning and quantization now describe the set up, check, run and

after the import starts. The distributed page describes the Explorer
list, the join sheet and what listing a swarm publishes.

* feat(ui): turn the hardware recommendations into a "Best for this machine" shelf

The shelf in the Models inspector put five columns into a 400 px pane,
so long model ids wrapped letter by letter underneath the size and the
memory figures. Each row now stacks the tag, the id and the size and
memory facts beside one Install button, and the id wraps inside its own
column.

Once a model is installed the shelf narrows to the best fit and keeps
the others behind a "N more that fit" toggle. Specs cover the ranking,
the layout, the narrowing and the install request against a gallery
fixture that carries the 4K estimate the shelf sizes against.

Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5

* fix(ui): quiet the Studio tab markers and say their state in words

The type tabs drew a saturated green dot for every modality that has a
model. The dot now uses a text colour, filled when a model is installed
and hollow when none is, and each tab carries "(model installed)" or
"(no model installed)" as hidden text so the state is not only a colour.

Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5

* fix(ui): stack the model editor empty state and drop its section hues

"No fields configured" sat in a flex row, so the icon, the title and
the text ran together. It now uses the stacked empty-state layout. The
section icons took a different status colour each (amber, red, green);
they now share one quiet colour, with the accent on the current section.

Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5

* fix(ui): keep the Home memory sentence whole on a phone and drop side rails

On a 390 px screen the memory strip clipped "2 models loaded" to make
room for the figure. The sentence now takes the first line and the
figure and device wrap under it.

The sweep also removed coloured left rails from the editor section
rail, the skill editor list, the install strip and the audio transform
notice (now an outlined note), plus unused chat rules that carried
rails and two glow animations that nothing referenced.

Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5

* fix(ui): line up hub pages, list the model templates, and stop clipped text

Medium-width pages inside Build and Operate were centred while the tab
bar above them was flush left, so the title started 60 px right of the
first tab. They now start at the bar's edge.

Add Model offered nine templates as a grid of identical cards with chip
clouds and inline styles. It is now one list of rows, each with the
field names it fills in on a single muted line.

Two clipped strings are fixed: the Studio voice field cut its
placeholder mid-word, and the phone job list ended the schedule line in
an ellipsis. The recommendation shelf also separates size and memory
with a dot, and the docs describe the shelf.

Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5

* fix(ui): keep the hidden Studio tab state inside its tab

The hidden state text added to each type tab was absolutely positioned
against the page, so on a phone it sat outside the scrolling tab row and
widened the page by hundreds of pixels. The tab is now the containing
block.

Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5

* test(ui): cover the on-disk sizes on the Installed table, model page and cleanup sheet

The fixtures stub GET /api/models/storage. The default report is empty,
so existing specs keep the gallery estimates. makeStorage() builds a
report from files and the models that use them, the way the server
does, and storageSpec() is a models directory with shared and missing
files.

New specs cover the Size column and its shared line, the fallback when
the call fails or the user is not an admin, the files list on the model
page, a missing file, the bytes a removal frees with shared files, and
the cleanup findings. Node tests cover the storage helpers and the
batch arithmetic.

Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5

* test(ui): wait for the page before pressing keys and ticking the clock

Two specs failed in loaded full runs and passed alone. The Alt+1 to
Alt+7 spec pressed a key before the composer had armed its key
handler. The capacity chart spec advanced the fake clock before the
poller had mounted, so it counted fewer readings than it expected.

Both now wait for the page to mount. The key spec retries a press that
lands during a re-render, and the clock spec advances in small steps and
polls for the row count.

Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5

* fix(ui): hide the Installed footer when the storage report is empty

An empty report from the storage call made the footer read "0.0 GB on
disk" next to sizes taken from the gallery estimate. An empty report
says nothing about the disk, so the footer now shows only the model
count. A spec covers it.

Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-sonnet-5-5

* fix(ui): keep Explore pane actions inside the pane

The inspector actions sat in a non-wrapping flex row beside the title,
so the buttons ran past the pane edge once it got narrow. The row now
takes its own line and wraps.

The primary action (Install, Retry, Open) comes first. Manage
installation becomes a ghost button, and Open details moves to the end
of the row, so one action stands out and the others are quiet. No
action or test id is removed.

Add a spec that checks, in light and dark at several widths and with a
pane forced to 320 px, that every action stays inside the pane box and
that the pane keeps its inner padding.

* refactor(ui): drop the type chips from the Studio composer

The Studio tabs and the composer's type chips listed the same seven
modes, so the page said the same thing twice. Keep the tabs as the one
place to switch modes.

The composer now shows the type it will open as a small label in its
header. The type suggestion from the typed words stays as the quiet
hint line under the prompt, and Alt+1 to Alt+7 still pick a type. The
composer root carries data-type, data-types and data-missing so tests
can read the state.

Specs pick a type through a shared Alt+digit helper and read a
missing model from the tab dot instead of a chip. Remove the unused
chip locale strings and CSS.

* refactor(ui): remove the section crumb above page titles

Page headers drew a small uppercase crumb with a short rule before it
above the title. On the hub pages it repeated the hub name, so Build
sat above a heading that also said Build.

PageHeader now renders only the title, the supporting line and the
actions. Drop the eyebrow prop, the route-derived section name, its CSS
and the unused section helper, and remove the explicit eyebrow props
from the pages that passed one. Pages stay reachable through the
sidebar and the hub tab bar.

Add a spec that checks several pages show their title with nothing
ahead of it in the header.

* refactor(ui): remove left accent rails from tiles, rows and quotes

Several surfaces marked state with a coloured strip on the left edge.
Replace each one with a cue that is not a rail:

- Stat cards lose the strip; the icon and value still carry the colour.
- The highlighted card is a raised surface with a firmer edge.
- The selected rail row is an accent wash with a hairline outline.
- The status stripe on rail items is a small status dot.
- The active failover row is a tinted row.
- Quotes in markdown and chat prose are italic instead of barred.
- The variant detail panel has a full hairline border.

Add a spec that walks the main routes in light and dark and fails on a
left border thicker than 1px, a sideways inset shadow, a narrow
absolute strip in ::before or ::after, or a narrow tall child pinned to
a left edge.

mudler-agentandEttore Di Giacinto 50c284fdcc fix: make the remaining VerifyPath checks effective (#12326)
utils.VerifyPath joins its argument onto the base path, so a path that
the caller already joined always passes. Several callers gave it joined
paths, and their checks could not fail:

- modeladmin (config view, patch, edit, pin and state): the config file
  path from the loader. A config loaded from outside the models
  directory (--models-config-file) could be pinned, and the pin wrote
  the outside file. The patch and state paths stopped later, in the
  mutation snapshot, with a different error.
- core/backend/tts.go: the model path joined onto the models path.
- The trellis2cpp and stablediffusion-ggml backends: option paths
  (*_path) joined onto the model path. A "../" value outside the model
  directory was accepted.

Add utils.VerifyResolvedPath for a full path. modeladmin and tts use
it. The backends now check the relative option value before they join
it. A rename in modeladmin checks the new relative name.

For models from a config file outside the models directory, the admin
API and web UI now return ErrPathNotTrusted for view, edit, pin, and
enable or disable. The docs describe this.

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

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

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

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

* feat(realtime): classifier response flow

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Silero is a ~2MB recurrent model with no exploitable graph parallelism:

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

pos-ei-don 06b4a29387 docs(config): document grpc.attempts timing + tuning guidance (#10868)
The gRPC configuration table only listed the two fields with a one-line
description each, without defaults, without explaining what the total
load window looks like, and without hinting when a user should adjust
them. In practice the default 20 attempts x 2 s = 40 s window is way
too tight for large NVFP4 / FP8 models on slow storage or first-run
CUDA-graph capture, and the resulting kill (exitCode=120, 'context
canceled') looks like a backend crash even though the backend is still
making legitimate forward progress.

Extend the section with:
- Defaults column (20 and 2) added to the table
- Prose explaining that these govern the readiness handshake between
  LocalAI and a freshly spawned backend (Health polling loop)
- Total-load-window formula
- Concrete failure signature so users can recognize a timeout-kill
  vs. a real backend crash
- Example configuration for a ~10 min cold-load window (grpc.attempts
  140, attempts_sleep_time 5), with a note that inference-timeouts and
  the watchdog are unaffected.

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

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

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

Reconciled against master's independent evolution:

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

LocalAI [bot]andEttore Di Giacinto e837921c2c feat: forward reasoning_effort to the backend so jinja models honor it (#10184)
* feat: forward reasoning_effort to the backend so jinja models honor it

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

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

* feat(realtime): set the pipeline LLM's reasoning_effort

Apply Pipeline.ReasoningEffort to the pipeline's LLM config when the realtime
model is built (per-session copy, overrides the LLM's own reasoning_effort),
and surface the resolved effort on the template input so Go-templated models
get it too. jinja models receive it via the backend metadata. This lets a
realtime pipeline disable thinking on models that only honor reasoning_effort
(e.g. LFM2.5), which enable_thinking can't.

LocalAI [bot]andEttore Di Giacinto 4a2cc64d07 feat(reasoning): honor per-request reasoning_effort on chat completions (#10082)
The OpenAI `reasoning_effort` field only reached the prompt template; it
never toggled the backend's thinking. Map it onto
ReasoningConfig.DisableReasoning (which becomes the enable_thinking gRPC
metadata) in the request merge, so reasoning_effort="none" disables
reasoning per request: the use case from #10072 (run a single Qwen3-style
model and turn reasoning off for low-latency tasks while keeping it on
for others).

Effort levels (minimal/low/medium/high) enable thinking unless the model
config explicitly disabled it (reasoning.disable: true wins and is never
re-enabled by a request); "none" always disables.

Closes #10072

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

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

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

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

Closes #9921

LocalAI [bot]andEttore Di Giacinto d77a9137d8 feat(llama-cpp): bump to MTP-merge SHA and automatically set MTP defaults (#9852)
* feat(llama-cpp): bump to MTP-merge SHA and document draft-mtp spec type

Update LLAMA_VERSION to 0253fb21 (post ggml-org/llama.cpp#22673 merge,
2026-05-16) to pick up Multi-Token Prediction support.

No grpc-server.cpp changes are required: the existing `spec_type` option
delegates to upstream's `common_speculative_types_from_names()`, which
already accepts the new `draft-mtp` name. The `n_rs_seq` cparam needed
by MTP is auto-derived inside `common_context_params_to_llama` from
`params.speculative.need_n_rs_seq()`, and when no `draft_model` is set
the upstream server builds the MTP context off the target model itself.

Docs: extend the speculative-decoding section of the model-configuration
guide with the new type, both load paths (MTP head embedded in the main
GGUF vs. separate `mtp-*.gguf` sibling), the PR's recommended
`spec_n_max:2-3`, and the chained `draft-mtp,ngram-mod` recipe. Also
notes that the upstream `-hf` auto-discovery of `mtp-*.gguf` siblings is
not wired through LocalAI's gRPC layer.

Agent guide: short note explaining that new upstream spec types are
picked up automatically and that MTP needs no gRPC plumbing.

* feat(llama-cpp): auto-detect MTP heads and enable draft-mtp on import + load

Detect upstream's `<arch>.nextn_predict_layers` GGUF metadata key (set by
`convert_hf_to_gguf.py` for Qwen3.5/3.6 family models and similar) and,
when present and the user has not configured a `spec_type` explicitly,
auto-append the upstream-recommended speculative-decoding tuple:

  - spec_type:draft-mtp
  - spec_n_max:6
  - spec_p_min:0.75

The 0.75 p_min is pinned defensively because upstream marks the current
default with a "change to 0.0f" TODO; locking it here keeps acceptance
thresholds stable across future llama.cpp bumps.

Detection runs in two places:

  - The model importer (`POST /models/import-uri`, the `/import-model`
    UI) range-fetches the GGUF header for HuggingFace / direct-URL
    imports via `gguf.ParseGGUFFileRemote`, with a 30s timeout and
    non-fatal error handling. OCI/Ollama URIs are skipped because the
    artifact is not directly streamable; the load-time hook covers them
    once the file is on disk.
  - The llama-cpp load-time hook (`guessGGUFFromFile`) reads the local
    header on every model start and appends the same options if
    `spec_type` is not already set.

Both paths share `ApplyMTPDefaults` and respect an explicit user-set
`spec_type:` / `speculative_type:` so YAML overrides win. Ginkgo
specs cover the append, preserve-user-choice, legacy alias, and nil
safety paths.

* fix(importer): resolve huggingface:// URIs before MTP header probe

`gguf.ParseGGUFFileRemote` only speaks HTTP(S), but the importer was
handing it the raw `huggingface://...` URI directly (and similarly for
any other custom downloader scheme). Live-test against
`huggingface://ggml-org/Qwen3.6-27B-MTP-GGUF/Qwen3.6-27B-MTP-Q8_0.gguf`
exposed this: the probe failed with `unsupported protocol scheme
"huggingface"`, was caught by the non-fatal error path, and the MTP
options were silently never applied to the generated YAML.

Route every candidate URI through `downloader.URI.ResolveURL()` and
require the resolved form to be HTTP(S). After the fix the probe
successfully reads `<arch>.nextn_predict_layers=1` from the real HF
GGUF and the emitted ConfigFile carries spec_type:draft-mtp,
spec_n_max:6, spec_p_min:0.75 as intended.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

* chore(llama.cpp): bump to 1ec7ba0c14f33f17e980daeeda5f35b225d41994

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

Adapt the grpc-server wrapper accordingly:

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Approach:

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

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

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

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

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

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

Move the chain split inside the draft_ctx_size branch:

    } else if (... "draft_ctx_size") {
        // ...
#ifdef LOCALAI_LEGACY_LLAMA_CPP_SPEC
    }                                  // legacy: chain ends here
#else
    } else if (... "spec_ngram_mod_n_min") {  // modern: chain continues
        ...

#endif
    }                                  // closes for-loop

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Mirror the existing pattern from Dockerfile.llama-cpp.

Ettore Di Giacinto 95efb8a562 feat(backend): add turboquant llama.cpp-fork backend (#9355)
* feat(backend): add turboquant llama.cpp-fork backend

turboquant is a llama.cpp fork (TheTom/llama-cpp-turboquant, branch
feature/turboquant-kv-cache) that adds a TurboQuant KV-cache scheme.
It ships as a first-class backend reusing backend/cpp/llama-cpp sources
via a thin wrapper Makefile: each variant target copies ../llama-cpp
into a sibling build dir and invokes llama-cpp's build-llama-cpp-grpc-server
with LLAMA_REPO/LLAMA_VERSION overridden to point at the fork. No
duplication of grpc-server.cpp — upstream fixes flow through automatically.

Wires up the full matrix (CPU, CUDA 12/13, L4T, L4T-CUDA13, ROCm, SYCL
f32/f16, Vulkan) in backend.yml and the gallery entries in index.yaml,
adds a tests-turboquant-grpc e2e job driven by BACKEND_TEST_CACHE_TYPE_K/V=q8_0
to exercise the KV-cache config path (backend_test.go gains dedicated env
vars wired into ModelOptions.CacheTypeKey/Value — a generic improvement
usable by any llama.cpp-family backend), and registers a nightly auto-bump
PR in bump_deps.yaml tracking feature/turboquant-kv-cache.

scripts/changed-backends.js gets a special-case so edits to
backend/cpp/llama-cpp/ also retrigger the turboquant CI pipeline, since
the wrapper reuses those sources.

* feat(turboquant): carry upstream patches against fork API drift

turboquant branched from llama.cpp before upstream commit 66060008
("server: respect the ignore eos flag", #21203) which added the
`logit_bias_eog` field to `server_context_meta` and a matching
parameter to `server_task::params_from_json_cmpl`. The shared
backend/cpp/llama-cpp/grpc-server.cpp depends on that field, so
building it against the fork unmodified fails.

Cherry-pick that commit as a patch file under
backend/cpp/turboquant/patches/ and apply it to the cloned fork
sources via a new apply-patches.sh hook called from the wrapper
Makefile. Simplifies the build flow too: instead of hopping through
llama-cpp's build-llama-cpp-grpc-server indirection, the wrapper now
drives the copied Makefile directly (clone -> patch -> build).

Drop the corresponding patch whenever the fork catches up with
upstream — the build fails fast if a patch stops applying, which
is the signal to retire it.

* docs: add turboquant backend section + clarify cache_type_k/v

Document the new turboquant (llama.cpp fork with TurboQuant KV-cache)
backend alongside the existing llama-cpp / ik-llama-cpp sections in
features/text-generation.md: when to pick it, how to install it from
the gallery, and a YAML example showing backend: turboquant together
with cache_type_k / cache_type_v.

Also expand the cache_type_k / cache_type_v table rows in
advanced/model-configuration.md to spell out the accepted llama.cpp
quantization values and note that these fields apply to all
llama.cpp-family backends, not just vLLM.

* feat(turboquant): patch ggml-rpc GGML_OP_COUNT assertion

The fork adds new GGML ops bringing GGML_OP_COUNT to 97, but
ggml/include/ggml-rpc.h static-asserts it equals 96, breaking
the GGML_RPC=ON build paths (turboquant-grpc / turboquant-rpc-server).
Carry a one-line patch that updates the expected count so the
assertion holds. Drop this patch whenever the fork fixes it upstream.

* feat(turboquant): allow turbo* KV-cache types and exercise them in e2e

The shared backend/cpp/llama-cpp/grpc-server.cpp carries its own
allow-list of accepted KV-cache types (kv_cache_types[]) and rejects
anything outside it before the value reaches llama.cpp's parser. That
list only contains the standard llama.cpp types — turbo2/turbo3/turbo4
would throw "Unsupported cache type" at LoadModel time, meaning
nothing the LocalAI gRPC layer accepted was actually fork-specific.

Add a build-time augmentation step (patch-grpc-server.sh, called from
the turboquant wrapper Makefile) that inserts GGML_TYPE_TURBO2_0/3_0/4_0
into the allow-list of the *copied* grpc-server.cpp under
turboquant-<flavor>-build/. The original file under backend/cpp/llama-cpp/
is never touched, so the stock llama-cpp build keeps compiling against
vanilla upstream which has no notion of those enum values.

Switch test-extra-backend-turboquant to set
BACKEND_TEST_CACHE_TYPE_K=turbo3 / _V=turbo3 so the e2e gRPC suite
actually runs the fork's TurboQuant KV-cache code paths (turbo3 also
auto-enables flash_attention in the fork). Picking q8_0 here would
only re-test the standard llama.cpp path that the upstream llama-cpp
backend already covers.

Refresh the docs (text-generation.md + model-configuration.md) to
list turbo2/turbo3/turbo4 explicitly and call out that you only get
the TurboQuant code path with this backend + a turbo* cache type.

* fix(turboquant): rewrite patch-grpc-server.sh in awk, not python3

The builder image (ubuntu:24.04 stage-2 in Dockerfile.turboquant)
does not install python3, so the python-based augmentation step
errored with `python3: command not found` at make time. Switch to
awk, which ships in coreutils and is already available everywhere
the rest of the wrapper Makefile runs.
