mudler's LocalAI [bot]andEttore Di Giacinto 83a0f16a21 feat(gallery): let one gallery entry offer several builds of the same model (#10943)
* feat(system): expose raw detected capability for model meta resolution

Model meta gallery entries express hardware fallback through candidate
ordering rather than a capability map, so they need the undecorated
detected capability string without Capability's default/cpu fallback
chain.

* refactor(system): drop duplicate capability accessor, cover DetectedCapability

ReportedCapability was added with a body identical to the existing
DetectedCapability. Keep one accessor and move the specs onto it, since
DetectedCapability had no direct coverage of its no-fallback behavior.

* feat(vram): parse IEC binary size suffixes (KiB..PiB)

ParseSizeString accepted only SI suffixes, so a "20GiB" floor was rejected
outright. Model and VRAM sizes are conventionally quoted in IEC units, and
silently reading GiB as GB would understate a floor by about 7%.

Purely additive: these inputs previously returned an unknown-suffix error.

* feat(gallery): add Candidate type for meta model entries

Candidate is one option in a meta entry's ordered variant list. It names a
concrete gallery entry and declares when that entry suits the host.

EffectiveMinVRAM resolves the VRAM floor, letting an authored min_vram win
over a nightly-inferred one. An unparseable floor errors instead of being
treated as absent: swallowing a typo would turn a constrained candidate into
an unconstrained one and select a too-large variant rather than fail loudly.

* feat(gallery): allow gallery model entries to declare variant candidates

A gallery entry with a non-empty candidates list is a meta entry: it names
an ordered list of concrete entries and resolves to the first one the host

* feat(gallery): resolve meta model entries to hardware-appropriate variants at install

Meta gallery entries carry an ordered candidate list; at install time the
first candidate the host satisfies is resolved and its payload installed
under the meta's name, so the model keeps a stable name regardless of which
variant backs it. The resolution is recorded in the installed gallery
config so a reinstall honors a prior pin and operators can see the backing
variant.

* fix(gallery): key meta pin recall on the installed name and detach resolved entries

Six review findings on the meta-entry install path.

Pin recall was keyed on the gallery entry name while applyModel writes the
record under the install name (req.Name when supplied), so a meta installed
under a custom name with a pin lost that pin on reinstall and was silently
re-resolved onto a different variant, possibly swapping its backend. Compute
the install name with applyModel's own precedence before the recall.

ResolveMetaModel returned a shallow struct copy, so the resolved entry's
Overrides aliased the gallery entry's map and the install path's in-place
mergo merge wrote the caller's request into the shared catalog. Detach
Overrides, ConfigFile, AdditionalFiles, URLs and Tags. Not exploitable today
only because this path re-unmarshals the gallery per call, which is a
property nobody should have to rely on.

Also: overlay the meta's name onto the persisted config for meta installs so
the gallery file no longer records the variant's name; move the pinned-VRAM
warning below the variant validation so a pin naming a nonexistent entry does
not warn about VRAM before failing for an unrelated reason; and stop seeding
config.URLs in the config_file branch, which duplicated every declared URL.

Add seven network-free specs driving InstallModelFromGallery with a meta
entry: variant payload wins over the meta's legacy url fallback, the
resolution record round-trips to disk, a pin is recorded and honored on
reinstall including under a custom install name, and the resolved entry does
not alias the gallery's maps.

* fix(gallery): deep-copy meta overrides and make two specs functional

ResolveMetaModel detached the resolved entry's Overrides and ConfigFile with
maps.Clone, which only copies the top level. Gallery overrides are nested in
practice (parameters.model is near-universal) and the install path merges the
caller's request with mergo.WithOverride, which recurses into nested maps and
overwrites them in place, so the gallery entry's own inner maps were still
reachable and still got rewritten by the last caller to install.

Copy both maps all the way down instead, recursing through the container shapes
a YAML decoder produces. ConfigFile is not mutated on the install path today,
but it carries the same kind of nested payload and leaving it shallowly cloned
would invite the bug back.

Also fix two specs that passed whether or not their target fix was present:

- "does not write the caller's overrides back into the gallery entry" re-read
  the catalog from disk, which re-unmarshals fresh structs and so cannot
  observe in-memory aliasing. It now asserts against the in-memory gallery
  entry and drives the real mergo merge.
- "round-trips the resolution record to disk under the meta's name" asserted a
  name that is already correct in the config_file branch. It now drives the url
  branch via a file:// fixture, where the meta-name overlay actually applies.

Both were verified red by reverting their fix.

* test(gallery): lint meta model entry invariants in index.yaml

Adds Ginkgo specs that parse the shipped gallery/index.yaml and enforce
the invariants that keep meta entries safe: a legacy url fallback equal
to the final candidate's url, references only to existing non-meta
entries, a min_vram floor on every candidate but the last-resort one,
a capability drawn only from the vocabulary the system can report, and
descending VRAM floors within a capability group.

The capability check is the only compensating control for a typo there.
Candidate matching is a case-sensitive exact comparison against
SystemState.DetectedCapability(), so an unknown value never matches and
falls through silently instead of erroring. The vocabulary therefore
mirrors the raw return set of getSystemCapabilities(), which notably
excludes "cpu": that is a fallback key inside Capability(capMap) on the
meta backend path, never a reported capability. A CPU-only host reports
"default".

These pass vacuously until the pilot meta entry lands; the guard is
intentionally in place before the thing it guards.

* test(gallery): close coverage gaps in the meta entry lint

The ordering invariant grouped candidates by capability and asserted floors
descend within a group. A candidate with an EMPTY capability matches every
host, so it does not belong in its own group: it dominates every later
candidate whose floor is at or above its own, across capability groups.
Track a running minimum floor over the unconditional candidates instead,
which subsumes the old same-group check for the empty capability.

Every spec skipped non-meta entries, so with zero meta entries in the index
all five bodies were no-ops. Aligning GalleryModel.IsMeta() with
GalleryBackend.IsMeta(), whose semantics are deliberately opposite, would
have made all of them pass while checking nothing. Extract each invariant
into a helper over a slice of entries returning the violations it finds, and
cover those helpers with synthetic fixtures so the logic stays tested at zero
meta entries. The index-driven specs are now a thin application of already
proven logic.

Also assert the index parses non-empty, report every violation in one run
rather than aborting on the first, and parse the index once for the suite.

* ci(gallery): add nightly denormalization of meta model candidates

Fills the read-only backend, quantization and inferred_min_vram fields on
meta gallery candidates and opens a PR, modeled on the existing
checksum_checker job. Computing these needs network access, so it happens
nightly rather than at install time.

An authored min_vram is never modified: a human who measured a real load
knows more than a pre-download estimate does.

The index is rewritten via yaml.Node rather than a document round-trip. A
full round-trip reflows all ~26k lines of gallery/index.yaml, which would
bury the computed values and make the nightly PR unreviewable. The rewrite
touches only the three derived keys, so authored styling survives and a run
that computes nothing leaves the file untouched.

* fix(ci): keep the gallery denormalize diff reviewable and self-healing

The nightly denormalization job edits YAML nodes instead of round-tripping
structs so its PR stays small enough for a human to review, but the write
path undid that: yaml.Marshal re-encoded the node tree at yaml.v3's default
4-space indent and dropped the leading document marker, reflowing roughly
6000 lines around the handful of real changes. Encode through
yaml.NewEncoder at the index's authored 2-space indent and restore the
header. A write that changes three fields now changes three lines.

Stale inferred_min_vram values were also never cleared. Both skip paths
(an authored min_vram is present, or the candidate is the last resort)
returned before touching the field, so a candidate that gained a floor or
became the last resort after a reorder kept an inferred value that
EffectiveMinVRAM reported as a real constraint, failing the meta lint with
no way for the job to self-heal. Clear the field before both skips.

The workflow discarded a whole night's work on any single failure: the
program exits 1 when a candidate cannot be estimated, which aborted the job
before the PR step, so one unreachable candidate blocked every other
refresh indefinitely. Capture the status, open the PR with what was
computed, mark the PR body as partial, and fail the run afterwards so the
problem still surfaces.

Also preserve the index's existing file mode instead of forcing 0644, and
drop the redundant //go:build ignore tag, since Go already skips dot
directories and the sibling modelslist.go carries no tag.

* feat(gallery): add nanbeige4.1-3b meta entry with hardware-resolved variants

Adds the first real meta entry to the gallery index. It resolves to the
Q8_0 build on hosts with at least 6GiB of VRAM and to the Q4_K_M build
everywhere else, installing either payload under the stable name
nanbeige4.1-3b.

The entry carries a url equal to its final candidate's url. LocalAI
releases that predate candidates support parse the index non-strictly
and drop the key silently, so without that url they would list the entry
and install nothing. A regression spec parses the index the way those
releases do and asserts every meta entry stays installable for them.

Also teaches core/schema/gallery-model.schema.json about candidates. The
schema sets additionalProperties: false at the top level, so an author
following CONTRIBUTING.md and adding the yaml-language-server comment
would otherwise get a validation error on this entry.

* feat(gallery): make candidate entries complete, installable entries

Reworks hardware-resolved gallery variants after a design pivot. There is no
longer a separate "meta" entry kind. A gallery entry is a normal, complete
entry that may additionally carry candidates:, a list of hardware-gated
upgrades over itself, and the entry is itself the last-resort candidate.

The previous design relied on a bare url: as the fallback for LocalAI releases
that predate candidates support. That fallback is empty in practice: none of
the 80 gallery/*.yaml files carry a top-level files:, and 1216 of 1281 index
entries carry their payload in the index entry itself, so a url alone yields a
config template with nothing to download. Since every released LocalAI reads
gallery/index.yaml live from master, merging a payload-less entry would have
shown every existing user a model that installs to a broken state. Making the
entry its own base candidate removes the problem at the root: old clients drop
the candidates key and install the entry exactly as they do today.

Resolution order is now explicit pin, then capability plus VRAM over the
declared upgrades, then the entry itself. The entry ALWAYS installs: when its
own min_vram or capability is unmet the installer warns and installs it
anyway, because there is nothing below it and refusing would make the gallery
behave worse the newer the client is. A pin naming the entry's own name is
valid and is how an operator declines an upgrade.

IsMeta() becomes HasCandidates(), ResolveMetaModel becomes ResolveVariant, and
the persisted meta_name record key becomes entry_name. GalleryBackend.IsMeta()
is a separate concept and is untouched.

The lint drops the three rules the pivot makes wrong (url equality with the
final candidate, no inline payload, unconstrained final candidate) and gains
one: the entry's own floor must sit strictly below every candidate's, since a
base that outranks a candidate makes that candidate unreachable.

The pilot entry is now the existing nanbeige4.1-3b-q4, which gains a 2GiB
floor of its own and a single 6GiB upgrade to nanbeige4.1-3b-q8, replacing the
separate nanbeige4.1-3b entry added in d0d441bb4.

* feat(gallery): select model variants by hardware fit, not authored order

Gallery entries could already carry a list of alternatives, but selection was
an authored, ordered, first-match policy: every candidate declared a
`capability` string and the VRAM floors had to descend in a hand-tuned order.
That pushed hardware knowledge onto whoever edits the gallery and made ordering
load-bearing, so a reordered list silently changed what users installed.

None of it was necessary. SystemState.IsBackendCompatible already derives
hardware support from a backend name alone: it knows MLX and metal are
Darwin-only, CUDA is NVIDIA-only, ROCm AMD-only, SYCL Intel-only. Selection can
read that instead of asking authors to restate it.

Authoring is now just a list of names:

    - name: qwen3.6-27b
      min_memory: 4GiB
      variants:
        - model: qwen3.6-27b-mlx-8bit
        - model: qwen3.6-27b-gguf-q8
          min_memory: 28GiB

and all the intelligence moved into the selector. Given a host it drops the
variants whose backend cannot run here, drops those whose known memory
requirement exceeds what the host has, and takes the LARGEST of what is left,
because a bigger footprint is a higher quality quantization of the same model.
A variant of unknown size is kept, since nothing proves it does not fit, but it
ranks last so a proven fit always beats a guess. An explicit pin still wins
outright, and if nothing survives the entry installs its own payload: the base
always installs, this never refuses.

Available memory is VRAM when a GPU was detected and system RAM otherwise, read
through xsysinfo so a cgroup limit is honored and a container gets its own
limit rather than the node's RAM.

Capability disappears entirely, from the types, the schema and the lint. VRAM
and RAM collapse into one `min_memory`, because a model's footprint is roughly
the same wherever it lives and one figure is compared against whichever applies.
The lint rules about ordering, the capability vocabulary and floor
relationships are deleted with the hazards they described; what remains is that
every variant names an entry that exists and does not itself declare variants,
plus that any memory figure actually parses.

* gallery: size model variants with a live probe, drop the nightly denormalizer

Selection needs each variant's size to decide whether it fits and to rank
largest-first. That figure was written into the index by a nightly job, which
made the gallery carry a derived value that could drift from the entry it was
derived from. Derive it at install time instead.

pkg/vram already sizes a model without downloading it, and the gallery UI
already uses it: a remote GGUF header range-fetch, then an HTTP HEAD for the
content length, then any declared size:. It caches its results, so reuse it
rather than writing a second probing path.

A probe failure must never fail an install, so an unprobeable variant is
treated as unknown: it survives the memory filter, because nothing proves it
does not fit, and it ranks last, so a known-good fit always beats a guess. If
every probe fails, selection still terminates on the base entry.

The probe is injected through ResolveEnv rather than called directly, for the
same reason the backend compatibility check is: specs pin an exact size, or an
exact failure, without reaching the network.

With that in place three things are dead weight and go:

- The nightly job and the fields it populated. Variant.Backend was redundant
  because the backend is resolved live from the referenced entry during
  selection, and Quantization was display-only that nothing read.
- min_memory on the base entry. The base always installs and its floor could
  only warn, so it could not change any outcome.
- The lint rules and schema entries for both.

min_memory on individual variants stays, as the override for when the probed
size is wrong. An authored figure now suppresses the probe entirely rather
than merely outranking it, so it costs no round trip.

* feat(gallery): expose model variants for selection over API, CLI and MCP

A gallery entry may carry `variants:`, alternative builds of the same model.
Selection already worked at install time, but nothing could see what an entry
offered or ask for a specific build, so the feature was undrivable.

Listing: `GET /api/models` now reports `variants` and `auto_variant` for the
entries that declare variants. Each variant carries its resolved backend, its
measured size and whether it fits this host. `auto_variant` is what installing
without a choice would pick right now.

The new gallery.DescribeVariants runs the same variantOptions + SelectVariant
pass the installer runs, so the reported default cannot drift from what
installing actually does, and HostResolveEnv is extracted so both derive the
host and share pkg/vram's probe cache from one place.

Performance: an entry that declares no variants returns early without touching
the probe, so the ~1280 ordinary entries cost exactly what they cost before.

Selection: `variant` is accepted on POST /models/apply, as a query param on
POST /api/models/install/:id, on the gallery apply file/string request, as
`local-ai models install --variant`, and as a parameter on the install_model
MCP tool (both the httpapi and inproc clients). Empty means auto-select.

An unknown variant name now fails the install naming what was requested. This
closes a real hole: an entry declaring no variants short-circuits before
selection runs, so a requested variant was previously dropped silently and the
install reported success.

startup.InstallModels ends in a variadic model list, so install options could
not be appended to it; InstallModelsWithOptions is added alongside and
InstallModels delegates to it. No caller signature changed.

* feat(gallery): drop the redundant variant min_memory field

Variant.MinMemory was an authored override for when the live probe misreads
a variant's footprint. It duplicated an existing field: probeEntryMemory
already passes the entry's declared size: into EstimateModelMultiContext,
whose cascade prefers that declared size over its own guesswork. Correcting
size: on the referenced entry fixes the figure for every consumer rather
than only for variant selection, so min_memory shadowed the right answer.

A variant is now nothing but a name. Its effective size is exactly the probe
result, and an unknown stays unknown: it survives the filter and ranks last.

EffectiveMemory loses its error return along with the field. The authored
string was the only thing that could fail to parse, so the error had no
remaining source and was propagating dead nil-checks through SelectVariant,
DescribeVariants and the pin warning.

Selection behaviour is unchanged. The specs covering probe-derived sizing,
ranking, filtering, the unknown-size path, pin recall, entry/variant
metadata split and deep-copy isolation all survive; the three install specs
that needed a definite size now declare it through the referenced entry's
own size:, which exercises the documented escape hatch directly.

gallery/index.yaml is untouched: no entry ever carried the key.

* fix(gallery): rank the entry's own build against its variants

Variant selection pulled the declaring entry's own payload, the base, out
of the candidate set and consulted it only once every declared variant had
been rejected. Two real failures followed.

A variant whose size the probe cannot determine deliberately survives the
memory filter, because nothing proves it does not fit. As the only survivor
it then won outright on any host, however small: a 2GiB machine installed an
unmeasured variant in preference to the 4GiB build the entry itself ships,
with no warning. 241 of the 1280 current index entries carry no files and no
size, which is exactly that shape.

"Largest wins" also broke whenever the base was the largest. An author
writing a Q8 entry that offers a Q4 downgrade for small hosts, a natural
shape that nothing in the lint, schema or docs discourages, had the Q4
installed on every large host instead.

Make the base an ordinary participant. It is still exempt from both filters,
so selection always terminates on something installable, but it is now
ranked against the variants: a proven fit first and largest, then the base,
then any variant whose size nothing could measure. Both failures disappear
together. The base is probed for its size accordingly, which it was not
before, because an unsized base would lose every contest to an unmeasurable
variant.

FellBackToBase is kept but narrowed to "no declared variant survived",
rather than "the base was chosen", since the base now also wins on merit and
that is not worth warning about.

A recalled variant pin also became a permanent install failure. A pin the
caller supplies on this request must stay fatal, but one recalled from
._gallery_<name>.yaml can be invalidated by any later gallery edit, and
failing on it turned one rename into a model that could never be reinstalled
or upgraded again short of deleting a dotfile the user has never heard of.
A stale recalled pin is now dropped with a warning naming it, and selection
runs as if it had never been recorded.

Also drop the last textual reference to two abandoned designs from the
DetectedCapability comment, correct the documented variants JSON example,
which showed a memory_bytes of 0 that omitempty makes impossible, and remove
an em dash from the install skill.

* fix(gallery): budget variant memory from RAM when a GPU reports no VRAM

Variant selection read its memory budget from VRAM whenever a GPU
capability was detected, and from system RAM only when none was. Apple
Silicon satisfies the first branch and fails the premise: arm64 macs report
the metal capability unconditionally, without probing anything, while
TotalAvailableVRAM has no discrete VRAM pool to find and returns zero. The
budget therefore came out as zero on every Mac.

Zero drops every variant carrying a known size, so the base build was
installed on all of them however much memory the machine had. The feature
was inert on the platform, and silently: falling back to the base is a
legitimate outcome, so nothing looked wrong.

Take VRAM only when it is actually a number, and fall back to RAM
otherwise. On a unified-memory host RAM is not an approximation of the
budget, it is the budget, since the GPU shares it. A discrete GPU whose
VRAM could not be read also lands on RAM, which overstates what the card
holds but understates nothing the host has; the previous zero understated
both.

An unreadable RAM figure still yields zero and still installs the base, so
a genuinely unknown host is not talked into a larger download.

This is what turned tests-apple red: "installs a fitting variant's payload
under the entry's own name" asserts on selection, and the runner resolved
to the base because its budget was zero. The added specs pin the branch
directly rather than relying on a macOS runner to notice again.

* feat(ui): add a model variant picker to the models gallery

PR #10943 shipped the server side: a gallery entry may declare `variants:`,
`GET /api/models` attaches `variants` and `auto_variant` to declaring
entries, and `POST /api/models/install/:id` accepts a `variant` query
parameter. Nothing in the UI consumed any of it, so the feature was not
reachable from the browser. This wires it up.

modelsApi.install takes an optional second argument and appends an encoded
`?variant=` only when one is given, so every existing call site keeps
sending exactly the request it sent before.

On the models table, an entry that declares variants gets a split button.
The primary Install still installs the auto-selected build, because auto is
the default and the point of the feature; the chevron opens a menu for a
deliberate override. It follows the Backends.jsx precedent: one shared
Popover re-anchored per row, rendering .action-menu items, which brings
Escape, outside-click and focus return along with it. An entry that
declares no variants renders exactly as it did before.

A variant that does not fit is dimmed but stays selectable, since the server
honors an explicit choice with a warning rather than refusing it.

memory_bytes is omitempty on the wire, so an absent key means the size is
unknown and never zero. A single helper guards both the menu and the detail
row, because formatBytes would otherwise render a falsy value as "0 B",
which reads as "needs nothing".

The expanded detail row gains a Variants section listing each build's
backend, size, whether it fits, which is the entry's own build, and which
one auto-selection would pick, built from the existing DetailRow helper and
.badge classes.

Eight Playwright specs cover the picker, including that plain Install sends
no variant parameter and that choosing one sends it. One pre-existing
assertion was scoped with .first(): the Variants section legitimately adds
more llama-cpp badges to the detail row, which tripped strict mode.

UI line coverage 49.42% -> 49.36% against a 40.0 baseline and 0.8pp
tolerance; branch coverage rose 72.04% -> 72.66%.

* fix(gallery): describe model variants from a companion endpoint

Variant description probes each referenced entry's weight files over the
network: an HTTP HEAD plus a ranged GET, serial, five seconds per probe
with no aggregate deadline. Running it inline in GET /api/models made one
listing cost (entries x variants) round trips. The Manage page fetches
with items=9999, so at 200 declaring entries that is ~1000 serial probes,
minutes of a blocked handler and gigabytes of range traffic for a single
page load. Only one entry declares variants today, but the feature exists
so that many will.

Follow the precedent already set for VRAM estimates. The listing now
reports only has_variants, a length check on loaded metadata that touches
nothing, and GET /api/models/variants/:id returns the description for one
entry, mirroring estimate/:id in route shape, auth and error handling.
DescribeVariants itself is unchanged; only its caller moved.

The picker fetches lazily at the two points where a user asks to see
variants, opening the split-button menu and expanding the detail row, and
caches per entry for the page session. An entry declaring no variants
issues no request at all.

A spec counts real HTTP hits on the weight files, so it goes red if
description becomes reachable from the listing path again through any
caller.

* feat(ui): filter the model gallery to entries that declare variants

The gallery is heading towards showing parent entries and hiding the
individual builds they reference, so a user sees one row per model
rather than six quantizations of it.

Adoption is a single entry today, so defaulting to that would leave a
one-row gallery. This ships the migration-phase inverse instead: the
default is untouched, and a toggle narrows the list to only the entries
that declare variants. It previews the end state and changes nothing
until someone asks for it.

The filter is server-side, next to term/tag/backend/capability and above
the pagination arithmetic. The listing paginates at 9 items, so
narrowing on the client would leave totalPages and availableModels
describing the unfiltered set and hand the user empty pages. It selects
on HasVariants(), which reads already-loaded metadata, so it issues no
variant probes.

The parameter is named has_variants after the listing field it selects
on, and is compared against "true" like the other boolean query params
(all_users, save_checkpoint), so has_variants=false reads as absent.
With it omitted the response is byte-for-byte what it was before.

The control is the shared Toggle component, matching the fitsFilter
toggle already on this page: same wrapper class, same icon and label
shape, same localStorage persistence. Unlike fitsFilter it resets to
page 1 on change, which a server-side filter has to do.

Stacking the toggle with a tag or backend filter easily yields nothing
while one entry declares variants, so the empty state now names the
variants filter as the cause rather than leaving a user to conclude the
gallery is broken.

* fix(ui): render gallery model descriptions as Markdown

Gallery descriptions are Markdown, but the React UI dumped them raw, so a
model whose description opens with an ATX heading showed a literal
"# Qwen3.6-27B [](https://chat.qwen.ai)" in the list.

Full-description areas now render through renderMarkdown (marked +
DOMPurify), matching how Backends.jsx and the Manage detail panels already
handle the same content:

  - Models.jsx expanded detail row
  - VoiceLibrary.jsx voice detail header

The truncated one-line previews must not render block Markdown: a leading
"#" would become an <h1> and wreck the row height and rhythm. They get a new
stripMarkdown() helper instead, which reduces Markdown to a single line of
readable plain text. It is used for the cell text and for the title tooltip,
since a tooltip full of "[](url)" is no better than a cell full of it:

  - Models.jsx gallery table description cell
  - Manage.jsx model and backend resource-row descriptions

stripMarkdown walks marked's lexer output rather than running regexes over
the source, so what it strips is by construction what renderMarkdown would
have rendered, and it needs no new dependency. Output lands in JSX text
nodes, so React escapes it; no new dangerouslySetInnerHTML beyond the two
full-description sites, both of which run DOMPurify.

* fix(ui): strip Markdown from the backends table description cell

Commit b35d630cf fixed this for gallery models but left the Backends admin
page with the same asymmetry: its detail panel renders the description
through renderMarkdown, while the collapsed table row dumped the raw gallery
string into both the cell body and the title tooltip.

That is user-visible. 40 of the 949 entries in backend/index.yaml carry
Markdown - insightface uses inline code backticks, others use lists and
links - and backend descriptions also contain embedded newlines, so the
one-line cell showed literal syntax.

The cell now runs stripMarkdown over the description once and uses the
result for the text and the title, matching Models.jsx and the
ResourceRowDesc component in Manage.jsx. The '-' placeholder is preserved,
and now also fires when a description reduces to nothing after stripping.
The detail panel is untouched and no new dangerouslySetInnerHTML is
introduced: stripMarkdown output lands in a JSX text node, so React escapes
it.

Three Playwright specs cover it: a description with a heading, inline code
and a link renders as clean text with no literal syntax and no block
element in the cell, the title tooltip carries the same stripped text, and
a backend without a description still shows the placeholder.

* ui(models): polish the variant detail view and scope rendered Markdown

The gallery detail pane rendered every field through the same two-column
label/value row, including the description. Multi-paragraph prose in a value
cell ran eight rows tall at the top of the pane on a ~1200px measure, breaking
the grid's rhythm exactly where the eye enters. Move it into its own full-width
block above the table, capped at a 68ch measure, keeping the label.

Rendered Markdown had no scoped typography anywhere in the app, so a
description opening with `#` inherited the browser default 2em inside a 13px
surface while a `##` further down was indistinguishable from body text. Add a
reusable .markdown-body block mapping h1-h6, paragraphs, lists, links, code,
blockquotes, images and tables onto the existing type scale, and apply it to
every renderMarkdown() consumer: the models detail, the backends detail, both
Manage details and the voice library detail.

Rebalance the variants list so the name leads. Backend and size drop from
badge/secondary weight to muted metadata; the FITS badge goes entirely, since
it was true of nearly every row and so said nothing, while the variant that
does not fit keeps a warning badge and a dimmed name. AUTO-SELECTED stays
marked because it answers what a plain Install produces. Rows share the
parent's grid tracks via subgrid so name, backend, size and status line up
down the list instead of raggedly following name length.

Finally, make each variant row actionable. It looked like a list of choices
but was inert text, with per-variant install hidden behind the split-button
chevron elsewhere; each row is now a button onto the existing
handleInstall(modelId, variant) path, with hover, keyboard focus and a
disabled state while an install is in flight.

* feat(gallery): collapse the listing to one row per model

The listing supported has_variants=true, which narrowed to entries that
DECLARE variants. With adoption at three entries that showed three rows,
which is useless; it was always a placeholder.

Replace it with the view that is actually useful: the deduplicated
gallery. Show every entry installable in its own right and nothing twice,
which means the parents plus every entry nobody references, and hide only
the builds another entry already offers as a variant, since those are
reachable through their parent.

The parameter is renamed to collapse_variants accordingly: the filter is
no longer a predicate on a row's own metadata but a view over the whole
gallery. Default stays off, so the response with the parameter absent is
unchanged.

VariantReferencedIDs never reports an entry that declares variants of its
own, so parents are always visible. That guarantees every hidden entry
has a visible entry offering it, and no chain can strand a row. Variant
resolution already refuses to install such a reference, but the listing
has to stay coherent in the presence of a gallery that has one rather
than silently swallowing entries. Self-references and dangling references
hide nothing.

The referenced set is computed over the whole gallery rather than over
what the other filters left, so an entry is hidden because a parent
offers it and never because of what the user searched for. The pass is
over metadata already in memory: it resolves nothing over the network and
triggers no variant description or size probe, so the listing's zero-probe
contract still holds.

The UI toggle keeps its behaviour (persistence, page reset, clear
filters) and becomes "One row per model", which says what the user gets.
Its localStorage key moves too, since the stored value meant a different
filter.

* feat(ui): show the collapsed model listing by default

The gallery listing is what a user reaches for to answer "what can I
install". Answering that with several rows for the same model, one per
build, makes the reader do the deduplication the collapsed view already
does, so the collapsed view is the one to land on.

The UI now asks for collapse_variants=true unless the toggle says
otherwise. The server default is deliberately untouched: a request with
the parameter absent still returns the full listing, because other API
clients depend on that response and collapsing it under them would be a
breaking change. Opting out omits the parameter rather than sending
false, so it asks for exactly the listing everyone else gets.

The stored preference changes vocabulary from '1'/'0' to 'on'/'off'. The
previous build wrote it from an effect that runs on mount, so a stored
'0' recorded that the page had been opened rather than that anyone chose
the expanded view, and honouring it would pin every earlier visitor to a
default they never picked. Only the new vocabulary counts as a choice;
a legacy '1' meant the collapsed view and is what the new default gives
anyway, so no earlier deliberate choice is lost.

Collapsing being the default also changes what the empty state may say
about it. An opted-into filter can be named as the cause of an empty
result; a default cannot, so the filters keep the top line and the
collapsed view drops to a hint below it, shown only once filters are
narrowing the set. For the same reason "Clear filters" now restores the
collapsed default instead of switching it off, and the toggle alone no
longer counts as a filter worth offering to clear.

The label stays "One row per model": it describes the view the user is
looking at rather than an action, so it reads the same whether it is
opted into or out of.

* gallery: group alternative builds of the same weights under variants

Sweep the gallery for entries that are alternative builds of the same
weights (different quantization, precision, or runtime format) and declare
them as variants of a single parent row, so the listing offers one row per
model instead of one row per quantization and the installer picks the
largest build that this host can actually run.

41 families over 95 entries, turning 54 entries into variants.

The parent is the bare-named entry wherever one exists, so nothing changes
about what any existing entry installs. Ranking already selects the largest
fitting build regardless of which entry is nominally the parent, so the
parent only decides the pathological case where nothing fits. For the ten
families that have no bare-named entry, the smallest build is the parent,
since that is the one that has to install when nothing fits.

Grouping was verified against the actual model filenames rather than the
entry names alone. Different parameter sizes, languages, finetunes, and
products that merely share a name prefix are left as separate rows: the
qwen3.6 APEX and pi-tune finetunes, the DFlash and MTP speculative-decoding
pairings, English-only versus multilingual Whisper, the QAT versus non-QAT
Gemma 4 weights, and the abliterated FLUX build are all distinct models.

Six parents define YAML anchors that other entries pull in with a merge key,
which would have handed their variants to every merging child. For the two
depth-anything anchors that would have made fourteen unrelated entries
advertise the base model's builds as their own. All 26 merging children
therefore carry an explicit empty variants list, which overrides the merged
key and is equivalent to the key being absent.

* feat(gallery): rank model variants by host backend preference

Variant auto-selection filtered candidates by whether their backend can
run on the host, then ranked the survivors by size alone. The backend
never influenced the choice beyond that gate, so a Mac offered both an
MLX build and a llama.cpp build kept neither filtered and installed
whichever was larger, leaving the native accelerated runtime unused. The
same held for CUDA against CPU on NVIDIA and ROCm against Vulkan on AMD.

Rank by the host's backend preference between the fit tier and size: fit
stays a filter, preference decides among the builds the host can equally
hold, and size still separates builds on equally preferred runtimes.

The preference data stays in one declarative table in pkg/system, now
read by a prefix lookup instead of a switch, so adding a capability or
reordering one host's runtimes is a one-line edit and the gallery's
ranking code carries no per-backend branching. MLX joins the metal rule
ahead of metal itself, which is inert for the existing alias-resolution
consumer because no alias group holds a candidate named for mlx.

An unrecognised backend, an unrecognised capability and an absent
preference list all collapse to the previous size-only ordering rather
than erroring or dropping candidates.

* fix(gallery): rank variants by engine name, not backend build tag

Variant auto-selection ranked candidates with
SystemState.BackendPreferenceTokens, but that function and the variant
ranker speak different vocabularies.

BackendPreferenceTokens returns BUILD TAGS ("cuda", "rocm", "sycl",
"vulkan", "metal", "cpu"). It exists to match installed backend build
directory names like "llama-cpp-cuda-12" during alias resolution in
ListSystemBackends. Variant ranking instead matches a gallery entry's
`backend:` value, which is an ENGINE NAME: "llama-cpp", "vllm",
"vllm-omni", "sglang", "mlx" and the rest. No engine name in
gallery/index.yaml contains "cuda", "rocm", "sycl" or "vulkan".

preferenceRank matches by substring, so on an NVIDIA host the tokens
[cuda, vulkan, cpu] matched neither "llama-cpp" nor "vllm", every
candidate scored identically and size alone decided. The NVIDIA, AMD,
Intel, darwin-x86 and vulkan rules were all inert. Only metal appeared
to work, and only because the token "mlx" happens to equal an engine
name. The mismatch does not error, it silently deletes the feature.

Separate the two vocabularies. backendBuildTagPreferenceRules keeps the
build tags and its original output for every capability, including
metal, whose "mlx" token is removed again; its alias-resolution consumer
is byte-identical to before. engineNamePreferenceRules is new, holds
engine names, and is read by the new EnginePreferenceTokens, which
HostResolveEnv wires into the renamed ResolveEnv.EnginePreference. Both
tables sit adjacent under one block comment naming each vocabulary and
each consumer, and share one lookup helper so their semantics cannot
drift.

On NVIDIA the order is vLLM, then SGLang, then llama-cpp: vLLM is the
throughput engine and a model published with a vLLM build is published
that way because that build is the one worth running. AMD and Intel get
the same order, since rocm and intel builds of both serving engines
ship. Metal prefers mlx over llama-cpp. Vulkan prefers llama-cpp, the
only LLM engine with a Vulkan build. darwin-x86 and unknown
capabilities are deliberately absent rather than guessed at, degrading
to the size-only ordering that predates preference.

preferenceRank stays generic and names no engine and no capability, so
adding a runtime remains a one-line table edit.

Specs pin the NVIDIA and metal rules through the live table and the real
HostResolveEnv wiring, so emptying the engine table or wiring the build
tag source back in both go red. A regression table asserts
BackendPreferenceTokens' original output per capability, and mirrored
locks assert neither table carries the other's vocabulary.

* docs: record that variant selection ranks by engine before size

A gallery entry can now declare variants, and selection ranks the builds a
host can run by engine preference before size. Nothing told a contributor
adding a backend that engineNamePreferenceRules exists, so a new engine would
silently rank below every known one and lose to whatever build happened to be
larger on hosts where it should have won.

Document the step where a backend is added, warn against the sibling
backendBuildTagPreferenceRules table (build tags, not engine names: the wrong
table matches nothing, scores every candidate equally and disables the
preference without erroring), and index it from AGENTS.md.

Fix the authoring and user docs, which still claimed the largest surviving
build wins. An author grouping builds under one entry has to be able to
predict what a user gets, and size alone no longer decides it.

wrong thing.

* fix(gallery): prefer llama.cpp over GPU serving engines on hosts with no GPU

engineNamePreferenceRules had no row for the "default" capability, which
getSystemCapabilities() returns both when no GPU is detected and when a GPU
is present but under the 4 GiB VRAM floor. A missing row yields an empty
preference list, which preferenceRank reads as "score everything equally",
collapsing variant selection to size alone.

That would be harmless if the hardware filter dropped GPU serving engines on
such a host, but it does not. IsBackendCompatible derives support from the
engine NAME, and "vllm" and "sglang" contain none of the darwin, cuda, rocm
or sycl tokens it keys on, so they fall through to its closing "return true".
A vLLM variant therefore survives on a CPU-only box and wins whenever its
build is the larger of the two on offer: the machine installs vLLM in
preference to llama.cpp.

darwin-x86 had the identical hole. It was documented as a deliberate omission
because nothing accelerates on an Intel Mac, which is true about acceleration
and wrong about consequence: with every engine tied, download size decides.

Add rows for both putting llama-cpp first. The GPU engines are enumerated
behind it rather than left unmatched: an unmatched engine already ranks below
every listed one, so llama.cpp would win either way, but unmatched engines
also tie with each other and let size decide among them. Naming them fixes
that order. MLX is left off the darwin-x86 row on purpose so it ranks last,
since IsBackendCompatible admits darwin-tokened engines on that capability
even though MLX needs Apple silicon.

Preference orders survivors and never filters, so a model published only as a
vLLM build is still installed on a host with no GPU; there is a spec for it.

Surveyed every other value getSystemCapabilities() can return. nvidia, amd,
intel and vulkan have rows; the l4t and cuda-refined values reach the nvidia
row by prefix; "apple" and "" cannot reach the vendor fallthrough because the
darwin and no-GPU branches return earlier. default and darwin-x86 were the
only live holes.

BackendPreferenceTokens and its build-tag table are untouched, and
preferenceRank stays generic, naming no engine and no capability.

* gallery: prefer speculative-decoding builds when they fit

Rank serving features between engine preference and size, so a host that can
hold a DFlash or MTP build of a model's weights installs it instead of the
plain build. Both answer faster for the same output, so whenever one survives
the filters there is no reason to take the plain build.

Precedence is now fit, then engine, then serving feature, then size. Engine
outranks the feature deliberately: a serving feature makes the right engine
faster, it does not make a wrong engine right, so a plain vLLM build still
beats a DFlash llama.cpp build on NVIDIA. Fit outranks both, and a drafter
pairing is strictly larger than the plain build, so the existing size filter
drops it on a host too small for it before this axis is consulted.

The order lives in a third preference table in pkg/system, alongside the build
tag and engine name tables. It is the odd one of the three: not keyed by
capability, because no hardware prefers a plain build over an equivalent
faster one, and matched against whole segments of a gallery ENTRY NAME rather
than as a substring of a backend value. Nothing on a gallery entry declares a
serving feature, and tags are not a usable substitute: gemma-4-e2b-it:sglang-mtp
carries an mtp tag while ornith-1.0-9b-mtp and qwen3.6-27b-nvfp4-mtp carry
none. Entry names are author-supplied free text, unlike the closed engine
vocabulary, so a short marker can turn up inside an unrelated word and whole
segment matching is what keeps smtp-assistant from ranking as an MTP build.
The block comment over the tables now documents all three together and states
what each is matched against; the ranking code names no feature, so adding one
stays a one-line edit to the table.

29c49203b rejected these entries as serving configurations rather than
alternative builds of the same weights. The definition is now "alternative ways
to serve the same model", which includes them, so regroup 14 entries under 12
parents. Judged by the files each entry points at: the qwen3.6, qwen3.5, qwen3
and deepseek pairings are the base GGUF plus a drafter, the gemma-4 QAT MTP
entries are the same QAT weights at a different quantization plus an MTP
drafter, and the two sglang MTP entries describe themselves as the same model
served with speculative decoding. Left separate: qwen3.6-27b-mtp-pi-tune, a
finetune with its own weights, and every entry whose base model LocalAI does
not ship as its own row, which is the whole Qwopus line plus gemmable-4-12b-mtp,
mimo-7b-mtp:sglang and qwen3.5-4b-dflash.

None of the twelve parents defines a YAML anchor, so no variants key can leak
through a merge key and no empty override was needed this time. The index was
edited by line insertion only.

* feat(gallery): make the mtp tag authoritative for serving-feature ranking

Variant auto-selection ranks survivors by fit, then engine, then serving
feature, then size. The serving-feature lookup read only whole alphanumeric
segments of a variant's entry name, because tags were inconsistent: every
dflash entry carried a dflash tag, but only 7 of 20 MTP entries carried an
mtp tag.

Tag the 13 untagged MTP entries, then teach the lookup to read tags as well
as names. A tag is now the authoritative signal and is compared whole and
case-insensitively, which is safe precisely because a tag is a deliberate
declaration rather than free text: there is no word-inside-a-word failure
mode, so the segment splitting the name half needs is unnecessary there.

The name check stays as a fallback rather than being replaced. Switching to
tags only would have regressed the six already-grouped entries on the day it
shipped, and would depend on tagging discipline that does not exist yet.

The lookup still names no feature, so adding one remains a one-line edit to
servingFeaturePreferenceTokens.

* feat(gallery): make a declared tag the sole serving-feature signal

Variant auto-selection ranks survivors by fit, then engine, then serving
feature, then size. The serving-feature lookup recognised a speculative build
by either a declared tag or a whole segment of its entry name. Drop the name
half: a tag is now the only signal.

A name is author-supplied free text and a naming convention is not a contract,
so reading a marker out of one infers a capability nobody declared. The gallery
already had the failure in it: the four NVFP4 entries name MTP-bearing weights
while setting no option that enables speculative decoding, and being live
variants they were winning the feature axis without answering any faster.

overrides.options was considered as the replacement and rejected. It carries
spec_type:draft-mtp / spec_type:draft-dflash, which is what actually turns the
feature on, but that spelling is llama.cpp's config vocabulary: ds4 spells the
same feature mtp_path and sglang spells it speculative_algorithm in a
referenced config. Keying a cross-backend ranking decision on one backend's
option syntax would rank the other backends' builds as plain. Options are the
curation-time check instead, and never reach the selection logic.

With no fallback left, tag correctness is load bearing, so audit every entry
against the rule "tagged when the entry configures that feature, in whatever
vocabulary its backend uses". Three entries configure MTP untagged and gain the
tag (hy3, glm-5.2, qwythos-9b-claude-mythos-5-1m, all spec_type:draft-mtp with
no marker in their names). Four carry the tag while configuring nothing and
lose it: qwen3.6-27b-nvfp4-mtp, qwen3.6-35b-a3b-nvfp4-mtp,
qwopus3.6-27b-coder-mtp-nvfp4 and qwopus3.6-27b-v2-mtp-nvfp4, whose only option
is use_jinja:true. The dflash side was checked independently rather than assumed
consistent: all five dflash entries declare spec_type:draft-dflash and all five
are tagged, so it needed no edits.

Four entries keep a tag that a literal spec_type-only reading would strip,
because they configure MTP through a different backend: deepseek-v4-flash-q2-mtp
via ds4's mtp_path/mtp_draft, and the three sglang entries via
speculative_algorithm in their referenced configs. Stripping those would
contradict the reason spec_type was rejected as the signal and would demote four
genuinely faster builds to plain.

The index was edited by line insertion and deletion only, never round-tripped
through a serializer. A resolved-tag diff across all 1272 named entries, taken
after merge keys are applied, shows exactly these 7 changing and no entry
gaining or losing a tag through an anchor.

The two specs that pinned the name fallback are inverted rather than deleted,
since a name silently promoting a build is the regression worth guarding. The
whole-token guard survives on the tag path, where smtp must still not match mtp.

* fix(gallery): make deepseek-v4-flash variant targets installable

Clicking install on deepseek-v4-flash failed with "invalid gallery model".
The parent entry is fine, but all four entries it was grouped with declared
neither url: nor config_file:, and applyModel needs one of the two to have
anything to build a config from. They carry urls: (plural), the informational
HuggingFace link list, which is a different field. None of the four was ever
independently installable, so grouping them routed a previously-working
install into a broken entry.

Give each the url: the parent already resolves through. virtual.yaml is a
no-op base, and applyModel passes overrides to InstallModel separately from
the fetched config, so backend: ds4, the parameters and the ssd/mtp options
all still land exactly as authored. This is the same pattern the parent and
many other GGUF entries in the index already use.

Add the lint rule that should have caught this. checkVariantReferences only
proved a target exists and is not itself a parent, which is structural
validity: an entry can exist, declare no variants, and still be
uninstallable. checkVariantTargetsInstallable mirrors applyModel's
precondition instead, and names the parent, the target and the missing
fields, because whoever hits it is reading a gallery entry and has no reason
to know applyModel exists.

The two index-driven resolution specs live in their own Ordered container:
an Ordered container stops at its first failure, so sharing one with the lint
rules let a lint breach skip them silently.

Nine further entries gallery-wide have the same defect and are unrelated to
variants, so they are broken installs that predate this branch. They are left
alone here rather than buried in a regression fix, and widening the rule to
cover every entry is deferred with them so the gate can ratchet up in one
step instead of needing a skip list.

* fix(gallery): install entries with no url or config_file on an empty base

applyModel had three branches: fetch a base config from url:, build one from
an inline config_file:, or fail with "invalid gallery model". An entry
declaring neither is now installed on an empty base config, with overrides:
and files: supplying everything.

This is what the ~345 entries pointing at gallery/virtual.yaml were already
getting. That stub is five lines carrying name, description and license.
description and license are overwritten from the gallery entry immediately
after the fetch, and the name never reaches disk because InstallModel prefers
the install name. Crucially applyModel passes model.Overrides to InstallModel
as a separate argument rather than merging it into the fetched config, so
nothing an author writes depends on that base existing. The fetch bought a
round trip to GitHub and nothing else.

That makes f4ef80173 the wrong fix, so it is unwound. The four url: lines it
added to the deepseek-v4-flash variants are reverted: they are a pointless
network fetch now, and the family installs without them.

Relaxing the branch would hide a real authoring mistake, so a payload rule
replaces the base-config rule. An entry with no url, no config_file, no
overrides and no files installs nothing and would leave an empty model
directory while reporting success, so it is refused by name. The caller's
request counts toward the payload, because its overrides and files are merged
into the install exactly as the entry's own are. urls: (plural) is the
informational link list and does not count, which is what the four entries
that shipped broken had and why they were still uninstallable.

checkVariantTargetsInstallable asserted every variant target declares a url:
or a config_file:, which is no longer true and would now reject correct
authoring. checkEntriesInstallSomething pins what survives instead, and covers
every entry rather than only variant targets: the hazard is a half-written
stanza and a parent can be one as easily as a target. The old rule was scoped
to targets precisely because nine unrelated entries would have failed a
gallery-wide version; those nine are valid now, so the deferred ratchet
happens here in one step. 1280 entries, zero violations.

Those nine (aurore-reveil_koto-small-7b-it, lfm2-1.2b, the six liquidai_lfm2
entries and deepseek-v4-pro-q2-ssd) become installable for free. Each carries
overrides: and files:, and one of them is driven through the real install path
in a spec.

The no-fetch spec is paired rather than bare: an assertion that nothing was
fetched proves nothing unless something could have been, so a control runs the
same fixture with a url: pointing at a base config that is not there and
asserts the install fails. Only then does the identical fixture without the
url passing mean the read was skipped.

Follow-up, deliberately not here: the ~345 entries still naming virtual.yaml
can drop their url:. That is 345 index edits with their own risk, and mixing
them in would bury this change.

* ui(models): let search bypass the variant collapse, drop the toggle

The models page collapsed the gallery to one row per model by default and
offered a toggle to see every individual build. Because the collapse composed
with the search term, a build another entry offers as a variant could not be
found by typing its name, so the toggle was the only way to reach those builds
in the UI. A user who typed a name they knew existed got "no models found",
which reads as "that model does not exist".

Collapse is for browsing; search is for finding. An explicit search term now
bypasses the collapse in the listing handler, so a name lookup returns matching
entries whether or not a parent offers them. The term is trimmed once at the
top of the handler, so whitespace is neither a search nor a bypass; previously
an untrimmed blank term also narrowed the listing to whatever contained a
space. Tag and backend deliberately do not bypass: they refine a listing the
user is still reading rather than name an entry already known to exist.

That makes the toggle redundant, so it goes, along with its i18n strings in all
six locales, its localStorage persistence, its participation in "Clear filters"
and the empty-state hint telling users to turn it off. The hint was doubly
stale: it pointed at a control that no longer exists, and it was untrue exactly
when a user has a search term, since searching now sees every build. The page
always requests the collapsed listing.

The stored preference key is left inert rather than cleaned up: nothing reads
it, so a user who had the toggle off simply gets the collapsed view.

collapse_variants stays on the API, off by default, because other clients want
either view and the UI dropping its control is no reason to remove a working
parameter.

"Fits in GPU" toggle and the backend select were direct children of
.filter-bar, the same wrapping container as the 18 taxonomy chips, so their
position was decided by how many chips happened to wrap at the current width
rather than by any layout intent. At narrow widths they were pushed past the
right edge of that container's horizontal scroll and became unreachable
entirely.

Restructure into three bands inside the house .filter-bar-group wrapper that
components/FilterBar.jsx already uses on Backends and the System tabs:

  1. query scope: search plus the backend select
  2. taxonomy: the chip row, alone, free to wrap
  3. refinements: fits-in-GPU and context size, under a hairline rule

The backend select leads the chips rather than trailing them because picking a
backend disables the use cases that backend cannot serve, so it gates the row
below it. Fits-in-GPU and context size share a band because they are one
control group: the context size is the length the VRAM estimate is computed at,
and that estimate is what the fits filter tests against.

Chips had no visible keyboard focus indicator. The global focus ring is wrapped
in :where(), so it carries the specificity of a bare :focus-visible, ties with
.filter-btn and loses on source order, leaving focused chips showing their
resting drop shadow. Restate the ring where it outranks both resting and hover.

Also: aria-pressed on the chips, a real label association and aria-valuetext on
the context slider (it steps over an index, so it announced "2"), disabled chip
styling moved off inline styles, a prefers-reduced-motion block for the chip
transition, and the hard-coded English "Context:" moved into all seven locales.

No behaviour change: same filters, same state, same requests. Page reset on
change, localStorage persistence and "Clear filters" verified unchanged.

* feat(ui): let the models recommendations panel fade into the background

The "Recommended for your hardware" strip rendered at full height on every
visit regardless of how many models were already installed, costing 186px at
1600px wide (287px at 1100px, where its cards wrapped to two rows) and pushing
the first gallery row to y=554 / y=703.

Make its prominence track how much the user still needs it. The panel now
defaults to a one-line summary once anything is installed, and both the
collapse choice and the existing dismissal persist:

  collapsed = explicit user choice, if one exists
            : installedCount > 0

The preference is three-valued on purpose. A boolean cannot tell "the user
expanded it" apart from "the user has never chosen", and those need opposite
handling when the installed count later crosses zero: someone who deliberately
opened the panel on an empty instance should not have it collapse out from
under them when their first model finishes installing.

Collapsed keeps the card, icon, title and a suggestion count, so the panel is
recovered by clicking what you are already looking at rather than by hunting.
Expanded is unchanged, because for a user with nothing installed it was never
the problem. Collapsed reclaims 145px at 1600 and 420, and 246px at 1100.

Models.jsx gains a statsLoaded flag: stats initializes to installed:0, so
reading it before the fetch resolves would render expanded and collapse a frame
later, which is exactly the layout shove this removes.

The dismissal key moves to the page's localai-models-* convention; the old
localai_rec_models_dismissed is still read, never written, so an existing
dismissal is honoured rather than resurrected by the rename.

Accessibility: the disclosure is a real button whose accessible name is the
visible title alone, with state on aria-expanded and aria-controls resolving in
both states, because the grid is hidden via the hidden attribute rather than
unmounted. That also keeps the four install buttons out of the tab order while
collapsed. The app's global focus ring applies; no per-component outline is
added, per the warning in App.css. Reveal animates opacity and transform only,
never height, and both it and the chevron rotation are disabled under
prefers-reduced-motion.

Only en had a recommended block, so the other six locales were falling back to
English for the whole panel. Translated the complete block rather than adding
one orphaned key to files that would still render the title in English.

* fix(downloader): recover from a leftover .partial on non-HTTP URIs

An interrupted download leaves a `<file>.partial` behind. The partial
handling in DownloadFileWithContext gated resume on `err == nil &&
uri.LooksLikeHTTPURL()`, so for any URI that is not literally http(s)
the branch fell through to `else if !errors.Is(err, os.ErrNotExist)`,
which with a nil err is true. The download then failed with an error
wrapping nil:

  failed to check file ".../Ternary-Bonsai-27B-Q2_g64.gguf" existence: <nil>

Every gallery file URI uses `huggingface://`, so a single interrupted
download made that model permanently uninstallable until someone
deleted the partial by hand. The `<nil>` in the message compounded it
by pointing debugging at a filesystem failure that never happened.

Restructure the handling as an explicit switch over the four real
states: partial exists and is resumable, partial exists and is not
resumable (discard and restart, as already done for an HTTP server
without range support), no partial, and a genuine stat failure. The
error branch is now only reachable with a non-nil error, names the
path that was actually stat'd, and wraps with %w.

Discarding is required for correctness and not merely convenience: the
writer opens the partial with O_APPEND, so an un-resumed download would
concatenate a fresh body onto stale bytes.

* feat(ui): tell the models gallery's variant rows apart, and let browsing see every build

Both variant surfaces rendered name, backend and size. For two builds of one
model that is close to no information: a variant exists precisely because the
same weights are offered another way, so the backend usually matches and the
sizes usually land within a few hundred megabytes. Comparing
ternary-bonsai-27b-pq2 against ternary-bonsai-27b-q2-g64 meant reading two names
that differ by a suffix nobody has defined anywhere in the UI.

Report the quantization and the serving features on VariantView, and derive both
server-side from the referenced entry rather than parsing names in the browser,
so every client reads the same format out of the same file the installer will
hand the backend.

Quantization comes from overrides.parameters.model first, falling back to the
file list. That order is load bearing: entries routinely ship a vision tower
alongside the language model at a different quantization, so reading the file
list first reports the mmproj's format. Matching walks `-` and `.` delimited
segments right to left; `_` deliberately does not split, because it separates the
parts INSIDE a quant token and splitting on it reports Q4 for a Q4_K_M build. A
second, looser pass takes a segment's `_`-delimited tail, which catches the
gemma-4-E2B_q4_0-it.gguf style; it runs second so a precise match can never lose
to a fuzzy one further right in the name. An entry naming no format reports
nothing, which is the honest answer for a backend served from a directory of
weights.

Features are the same tag-against-vocabulary match servingFeatureRank already
ranks on, over the same host preference list. A build can therefore never be
shown as faster than one selection did not actually reward, nor rewarded without
being shown; a spec pins that agreement rather than trusting it.

The compact dropdown gets the quantization on its meta line and the bare feature
token. The detail row, which has the room, gets the quantization as its own
monospaced column so precision lines up down the list, and the feature spelled
out, because DFLASH names nothing to a user who has not met it. The referenced
entry's description stays out of both: the detail row already renders the
parent's prose above the table, and a second block per variant would push a
three-variant list past a screen to restate what the columns now say precisely.

The collapse toggle comes back. 462583f38 dropped it once search bypassed the
collapse, on the reasoning that nothing was unreachable any more. That holds for
finding a build whose name you know and does not hold for browsing: no sequence
of actions enumerated the 68 builds the default view hides. Collapse is for
browsing and search is for finding, and the toggle was the browsing half.

It goes in the refinements band 0d4823362 established, not back among the
taxonomy chips where its position depended on how many chips happened to wrap. It
leads that band because it decides how many rows the other two refine over, and
because unlike fits-in-GPU it is unconditional: a host with no GPU still browses.

The search bypass is untouched and re-checked by a spec in the toggle's default
state, since restoring the control must not restore the dead end it replaced. The
empty-state hint returns but only without a search term, because a term bypasses
the collapse and the hint would otherwise point at a control that cannot change
the result. The stored preference reads 'on'/'off' only: an older build wrote
'1'/'0' from an effect that ran on mount, so those record that the page was
opened, not that anyone chose a view.

Also fixes a latent flake it exposed. The collapse_variants spec compared whole
response bodies byte for byte, and the listing envelope carries live host
telemetry that drifts between two calls milliseconds apart, so it was asserting
on the machine's memory pressure. It now compares everything the parameter
governs -- the entries, their serialization and the paging -- and is green 25/25
where it was failing about one run in three.

* feat(ui): let the models gallery show a variant's full details

The variant list in an entry's expanded detail row says how the builds
differ: name, backend, quantization, size, and the auto-selected, base
and serving-feature markers. It cannot say what any one of them is. A
variant's own description, tags, license, source links and file list are
unreachable anywhere in the UI, because while the collapse is on a
variant has no gallery row of its own.

Give each variant row an info control that reveals its entry, rendered by
the same ModelDetail a top-level row gets, so a field added to the detail
view appears here too. variantData is withheld from the nested render: a
variant may declare variants of its own, and recursing would nest a
picker inside a picker two levels deep already.

An inline disclosure rather than a modal. The control sits inside a table
row that is already expanded, inside a variant list within that; a dialog
opened from there stacks a dismissal on a dismissal for a handful of
extra fields about the entry the user is already reading, and breaks the
page's own expand idiom. The third level is carried by an inset and a
left rule instead of another card.

The entry is fetched by exact name from the listing, once, on first use.
The listing already returns every field the detail view renders, and a
search term bypasses the variant collapse server-side, so no new endpoint
is needed and neither the listing nor DescribeVariants gains any work.
Expanding a row costs nothing; a variant nobody opens costs nothing. A
name the listing no longer returns is stated, not blanked: an empty panel
reads as a rendering fault rather than as a lookup that came back empty.

The control is a sibling of the install button, not a descendant, so
asking about a build can never install it.

The variant list keeps its content-sized columns via a trailing filler
track instead of max-content sizing, so the rows are unchanged while the
panel spanning them gets the pane width its file table needs.

* feat(gallery): let search respect the collapse instead of switching it off

The models listing collapsed to one row per model, and an explicit search term
turned that off wholesale. Searching while collapsed therefore answered with the
individual builds a parent already offers, which are exactly the rows the view
the user asked for has no place for: typing "mtp" returned
qwen3.6-27b-nvfp4-mtp, a row that is invisible the moment the box is cleared.
The bypass was the right shape of fix for the wrong half of the problem. What a
search must not do is answer "no models found" for a build the gallery does
hold; that does not require abandoning the grouping the user asked for.

So the term is now matched against every entry either way, hidden builds
included, and the collapse decides how a match is reported rather than which
matches exist. Collapsing stops being a filter that drops rows and becomes a
substitution: a match on a build another entry offers is reported as that entry,
the one installable in its own right. Nothing becomes unfindable and nothing
comes back that the requested view cannot show.

Substitution happens after search, tag and backend, so every filter is judged
against the build that really carries the name, tag or backend rather than
against a parent that merely offers it; the other order would let backend=vllm
match a parent whose own backend is something else. The price is that the
surfaced row shows the parent's own metadata while the match was on a variant,
which is what grouping means, and the alternative is claiming the gallery holds
no such build. It happens before the count and the page math, so both describe
the rows actually handed out rather than the matches that produced them.

A parent already in the result keeps its own position and absorbs its matching
variants there, which is what leaves the browsing listing ordered exactly as it
was; a parent surfaced only by a variant takes the position of the first variant
that surfaced it. Either way it appears once, however many of its builds matched
and whether or not it matched itself. Search preserves gallery order rather than
scoring, so a surfaced parent has a real position rather than an invented one.

VariantParents never reports an entry that declares variants of its own, so a
parent is never itself hidden and one hop always lands on a visible row. The
handler follows exactly one anyway: refusing the second is what makes a gallery
the linter would have rejected terminate rather than loop.

The empty-state hint pointing at the toggle goes with it for every server-side
filter. Substitution means a match is always reported as some row, so the
collapse can no longer be why a term, a chip or a backend came back empty, and
naming it there sends the user to a control that cannot change the result. It
survives for the fits filter alone, which runs in the browser after the
substitution and judges the surfaced entry's own size: there the build that fits
really can be filtered out along with a parent that does not.

Searching a build's exact name while collapsed now answers with its parent, so
the result no longer contains the string the user typed. That is intended, and
the row is the one they can act on, but it is a real rough edge: nothing on the
row explains the connection. Closing it properly means reporting which variant
matched so the UI can say so, which the listing does not do today.

ResetGalleryModelCache is added for tests. The model cache is a package global
keyed by nothing, so a background refresh one spec triggers can land in the
middle of the next and answer it with the previous spec's gallery; the extra
specs here made that fail about one run in five. It waits for the in-flight
refresh to publish before clearing, since clearing alone only narrows the
window.

and enforces the budget uniformly (Task 6).

Also closes a Task 6 gap: on re-registration, a struct Updates zero-skips
an empty budget, so a worker that dropped LOCALAI_VRAM_BUDGET left the
stale cap in place. For non-admin-override nodes the budget columns are
now force-written (map Updates) even when empty, so removing the env var
clears the cap; admin overrides are preserved unchanged.

budget a second time. For an absolute budget this is idempotent, but for
a percentage budget b.Apply resolves the ceiling as a fraction of its
input total, so a second pass yields P*(P*T) instead of P*T and distorts
UsagePercent (read by the memory reclaimer in pkg/model/watchdog.go).

Remove the redundant second application so the budget is applied exactly
once, against the raw physical totals, upstream in GetGPUAggregateInfo.

Because every modality picker funnels through ModelSelector, this fixes
the friction everywhere at once. External-options callers pass no
capability and keep the previous first-item behaviour.

* feat(ui): add visibility-aware polling hook

The app had 26 hand-rolled setInterval polls, none of which paused when
the browser tab was hidden, so backgrounded dashboards kept hitting the
server every few seconds for data nobody was looking at.

Add usePolling: runs immediately, polls on a fixed interval, pauses while
document.hidden, fires a catch-up poll on return, and guards against
overlapping slow requests. Route useResources (the highest-frequency
shared poll) through it. Further callers can be migrated incrementally.

* feat(ui): hardware-aware starter models on empty home

A fresh install dropped admins straight into a 1000+ model gallery with
no guidance. Add a StarterModels widget to the empty-state wizard that
recommends a small, curated set tuned to the detected hardware:

- CPU-only machines (no GPU VRAM) are steered to genuinely small models
  (1-4B, Q4) that stay responsive without a GPU.
- GPU machines get suggestions scaled to available VRAM.

Curated names are real gallery entries, intersected against the live
gallery at render time so a trimmed/custom gallery degrades gracefully.
Install is one click via the existing model-install API.

Also routes Home's cluster and system-info polls through usePolling so a
backgrounded home page stops fetching.

* feat(ui): optional token-cost estimates on usage dashboard

The usage dashboard tracked tokens but had no monetary view. Multi-user
deployments that bill back or budget compute had to export and compute
cost elsewhere.

Add an opt-in pricing control: admins set $ per 1M prompt/completion
tokens (stored per-browser). When set, an estimated-cost summary card and
per-model / per-user cost columns appear, computed from recorded token
counts. The entire cost surface stays hidden until a price is entered, so
the default view is unchanged. Cost is clearly labelled an estimate -
LocalAI itself has no notion of price.

The chat and agent-chat send buttons were a bare paper-plane icon with

of all icon-only buttons found these were the only two unlabeled controls;
the rest already carry visible text.

* fix(ui): top-navbar breakpoint handoff + assistant jump from chat page

M1: the desktop .top-navbar was hidden at max-width 768px while the
.mobile-header only appears at max-width 639px, leaving 640-768px with
neither bar so admins lost the mode pill, token meter and admin-via-chat
jump. Hide the top bar at 639px instead so it covers every width the rail
sidebar is shown and hands off to the mobile-header exactly at 639px.

M2: the navbar 'Admin via chat' button wrote localStorage and called
navigate('/app/chat'), but when already on the chat page Chat does not
remount so its mount-time payload reader never fired and the click was a
no-op until reload. The payload consume logic is factored into a shared
callback; the launcher now dispatches a localai-open-assistant event that
the mounted Chat listens for to re-consume the payload. Mount behavior is
unchanged.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

LocalAI [bot]andEttore Di Giacinto 3e96d811b7 fix(ui): keep row action menu anchored and stop scroll snap on /app/manage (#10419)
Opening a model row's kebab (ActionMenu) on the Manage dashboard snapped the
page scroll to the top and rendered the menu detached from its trigger, making
it impossible to operate.

Two compounding causes:

- The menu auto-focus called el.focus() without preventScroll, so the browser
  scrolled the focused element into view, yanking the page to the top.
- The position:fixed Popover was rendered inline inside the table row. The
  editorial UI overhaul added hover transforms to rows/cards, and a transformed
  ancestor re-anchors position:fixed to itself instead of the viewport, so the
  menu (positioned from the trigger's viewport rect) landed in the wrong place.

Fix: portal the Popover to document.body so position:fixed always resolves
against the viewport, position it before paint with useLayoutEffect (no {0,0}
flash), and pass preventScroll:true to both focus calls.

Adds an e2e regression test that reproduces the symptom (scroll jumped from 564
to 0 on the old code) and asserts the menu tracks its trigger.

  catalog is discoverable without dominating the page.
- The whole connect card is dismissable (x): dismissing unmounts it so the
  vertical space is recovered, and the choice is remembered (localStorage).
- .home-page now fills its column and vertically centers its content when
  there is slack, so sparse states (no models / card dismissed) read as a
  balanced launcher instead of content jammed at the top. Overflow-safe:
  tall content flows from the top and scrolls.

Add a hero frequency-bar visualizer at the top of the Talk page so users get
ambient feedback that they are heard and that the assistant is speaking - the
audit's main Talk gap (the only prior feedback was a small status pill; the
waveform was buried in the dev diagnostics panel).

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

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

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

Reconciled against master's independent evolution:

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

LocalAI [bot]andEttore Di Giacinto 88726f2da4 fix(react-ui): restore sidebar collapse in dev + stop Talk page auto-scroll (#10383)
The sidebar collapse toggle silently no-op'd in dev builds. toggleCollapse
ran its side effects (localStorage write + sidebar-collapse dispatch) inside
the setCollapsed updater. StrictMode double-invokes updaters in dev to surface
impurity, and the synchronous dispatch re-entered setState from the
App/Sidebar listeners mid-update, so the toggle never committed. Production
builds don't double-invoke, which is why only the dev server was affected.
Compute next from current state and move the persist + broadcast into the
handler body so the updater is pure.

Also fix the Talk page anchoring to the transcript box on load. The transcript
is its own overflow container, but scrollIntoView bubbles to every scrollable
ancestor including the window, yanking the whole page down on mount. Scroll
the transcript container directly instead.

Generalize the one-off admin console into a reusable ConsoleLayout driven by
a shared consoleConfig (single source of truth for the rail, its gating, and

- Promote Install Models to the top menu next to Home.
- Build and Operate are now console tiers (secondary rail); Create stays inline.
- Fold Recognition (Faces/Voices) into the Build console as a group alongside
  Automation and Training so it no longer feels split off.
- Style the console rail as a panel (header, grouped dividers, rounded active
  pills) with a hover nudge; sidebar items become inset rounded pills. The rail
  slide-in plays only when entering a console, not on item-to-item sub-nav
  (which remounts the layout), so switching no longer flashes the menu. All
  token-based (light + dark), respects reduced-motion.
- Add a delayed RouteFallback loader so lazy routes no longer flash blank;
  scoped inside ConsoleLayout so the rail stays put while the body loads.
- Update e2e specs for the new structure (.console-* classes, console entries).

  Cache /api/features across mounts and play the rail entrance animation only
  when actually entering a console.
- Add a "One endpoint, every API" section to Home: leads with LocalAI's own
  native API (images, video, realtime voice over WebRTC/WS, depth, object
  detection, rerank, audio/TTS, face & voice recognition) plus a Full API
  reference link, then the drop-in compatibility layer (OpenAI, Anthropic,

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

and output spectrums side by side, so it's visible which bands the
enhancement attenuates (bright input bands that go dark in the output).

Computed client-side via a Hann-windowed STFT over both clips (a small
dependency-free radix-2 FFT), defaulting to the LocalVQE 512/256 frame
geometry. This shows the net input->output spectral change; the model's
internal gain mask is not exposed by the backend.

* test(react-ui): make UI coverage deterministic, tighten the gate

UI e2e line coverage swung ~1pp run-to-run (39.1% <-> 40.2%), which forced
a loose 0.8pp tolerance on the monotonic gate — a band wide enough to let
a real ~300-line regression through silently. The swing was a bug, not
inherent jitter: the 'Create Agent navigates' spec ended on the URL
assertion, so AgentCreate.jsx's ~400 lines were collected only when its
render happened to beat the coverage teardown.

Wait for the page to actually render (assert its heading) so those lines
are covered every run. With the race gone, repeated runs land within
~0.013pp of each other, so:

- tighten UI_COVERAGE_TOLERANCE 0.8 -> 0.1 (noise floor, not a drift band)
- set the baseline to the real, reliably-achieved value (39.0 -> 39.86)

Localised by running the V8-coverage suite repeatedly and diffing per-file
line coverage; AgentCreate.jsx was the sole ~1pp flipper.

* Keep the coverage gate bundling-invariant: the coverage build inlines
  dynamic imports so every shipped source file lands in the denominator
  (otherwise untested page chunks silently drop out and inflate the

pattern. These will replace the hardcoded literals in RemoteUnloaderAdapter
so admin-driven backend installs across the cluster survive long OCI image

to 15m (was 3m); cold OCI image pulls on Jetson Wi-Fi routinely blew

When the NATS request-reply for backend.install (or .upgrade) times out

from "worker still working" and leave the pending_backend_ops row in
place for the reconciler to confirm via backend.list.

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

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

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

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

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

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

RecordPendingBackendOpInFlight now only updates LastError and NextRetryAt.

comment so Task 6 implementers see the full surface.

reports the backend installed via backend.list, the manager surfaces
it via ListBackends.

"still installing in background" admin-UI state when the round-trip
times out but the worker is still working.

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

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

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

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

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

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

* feat(distributed): RemoteUnloaderAdapter subscribes to install progress

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

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

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

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

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

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

A worker on pre-Phase-2 code never publishes progress events. The new

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

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

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

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

GalleryService.UpdateNodeProgress(opID, nodeID, np) merges a NodeProgress

latest tick into the aggregate Progress / FileName /
DownloadedFileSize / TotalFileSize fields so the legacy single-bar
OperationsBar view keeps working unchanged alongside the new per-node
breakdown.

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

DistributedBackendManager now accepts a nodeProgressSink and feeds it
two streams:

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Two regression specs added pinning both directions of the contract.

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

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

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

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

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

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

Promote both to exported const blocks:

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

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

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

LocalAI [bot]andEttore Di Giacinto 11d5bd0cc3 fix(react-ui/chat): stop wiping selection on every /api/operations poll (#9904) (#9917)
useOperations() was calling setOperations() with a fresh array on every
1s poll, even when the payload was identical. In React 19 the DOM diff
no longer short-circuits dangerouslySetInnerHTML on equal __html, so the
forced Chat re-render re-assigned innerHTML on every assistant message
once per second — wiping any text the user had selected.

Skip the state update when the serialised operations payload is
unchanged, and switch loading/error to functional setters so they also
short-circuit at the source.

Also fixes the chat copy button on plain HTTP: navigator.clipboard is
undefined in non-secure contexts (a common LXC+Docker deployment), but
the previous code called it unconditionally and showed a success toast
regardless. Routed Chat, AgentChat and CanvasPanel through a new
copyToClipboard() helper that uses navigator.clipboard when available
and falls back to a hidden-textarea + execCommand('copy') trick that
browsers still honour outside secure contexts. The fallback preserves
the user's existing selection.

Regression coverage in e2e/chat-polling-selection.spec.js: a
MutationObserver counts mutations on the assistant content node across
3s of polling (must be 0); the copy test stubs out navigator.clipboard
and asserts that execCommand('copy') is invoked.

Richard Palethorpe 670259ce43 chore: Security hardening (#9719)
* fix(http): close 0.0.0.0/[::] SSRF bypass in /api/cors-proxy

The CORS proxy carried its own private-network blocklist (RFC 1918 + a
handful of IPv6 ranges) instead of using the same classification as
pkg/utils/urlfetch.go. The hand-rolled list missed 0.0.0.0/8 and ::/128,
both of which Linux routes to localhost — so any user with FeatureMCP
(default-on for new users) could reach LocalAI's own listener and any
other service bound to 0.0.0.0:port via:

  GET /api/cors-proxy?url=http://0.0.0.0:8080/...
  GET /api/cors-proxy?url=http://[::]:8080/...

Replace the custom check with utils.IsPublicIP (Go stdlib IsLoopback /
IsLinkLocalUnicast / IsPrivate / IsUnspecified, plus IPv4-mapped IPv6
unmasking) and add an upfront hostname rejection for localhost, *.local,
and the cloud metadata aliases so split-horizon DNS can't paper over the
IP check.

The IP-pinning DialContext is unchanged: the validated IP from the
single resolution is reused for the connection, so DNS rebinding still
cannot swap a public answer for a private one between validate and dial.

* fix(downloader): verify SHA before promoting temp file to final path

DownloadFileWithContext renamed the .partial file to its final name
*before* checking the streamed SHA, so a hash mismatch returned an
error but left the tampered file at filePath. Subsequent code that
operated on filePath (a backend launcher, a YAML loader, a re-download
that finds the file already present and skips) would consume the
attacker-supplied bytes.

Reorder: verify the streamed hash first, remove the .partial on
mismatch, then rename. The streamed hash is computed during io.Copy
so no second read is needed.

While here, raise the empty-SHA case from a Debug log to a Warn so
"this download had no integrity check" is visible at the default log
level. Backend installs currently pass through with no digest; the
warning makes that footprint observable without changing behaviour.

* fix(auth): require email_verified for OIDC admin promotion

extractOIDCUserInfo read the ID token's "email" claim but never
inspected "email_verified". With LOCALAI_ADMIN_EMAIL set, an attacker
who could register on the configured OIDC IdP under that email (some
IdPs accept self-supplied unverified emails) inherited admin role:

  - first login:  AssignRole(tx, email, adminEmail) → RoleAdmin
  - re-login:     MaybePromote(db, user, adminEmail) → flip to RoleAdmin

Add EmailVerified to oauthUserInfo, parse email_verified from the OIDC
claims (default false on absence so an IdP that omits the claim cannot
short-circuit the gate), and substitute "" for the role-decision email
when verified=false via emailForRoleDecision. The user record still
stores the unverified email for display.

GitHub's path defaults EmailVerified=true: GitHub only returns a public
profile email after verification, and fetchGitHubPrimaryEmail explicitly
filters to Verified=true.

Regression tests cover both the helper contract and integration with
AssignRole, including the bootstrap "first user" branch that would
otherwise mask the gate.

* feat(cli): refuse public bind when no auth backend is configured

When neither an auth DB nor a static API key is set, the auth
middleware passes every request through. That is fine for a developer
laptop, a home LAN, or a Tailnet — the network itself is the trust
boundary. It is not fine on a public IP, where every model install,
settings change, and admin endpoint becomes reachable from the
internet.

Refuse to start in that exact configuration. Loopback, RFC 1918,
RFC 4193 ULA, link-local, and RFC 6598 CGNAT (Tailscale's default
range) all count as trusted; wildcard binds (`:port`, `0.0.0.0`,
`[::]`) are accepted only when every host interface is in one of those
ranges. Hostnames are resolved and treated as trusted only when every
answer is.

A new --allow-insecure-public-bind / LOCALAI_ALLOW_INSECURE_PUBLIC_BIND
flag opts out for deployments that gate access externally (a reverse
proxy enforcing auth, a mesh ACL, etc.). The error message lists this
plus the three constructive alternatives (bind a private interface,
enable --auth, set --api-keys).

The interface enumeration goes through a package-level interfaceAddrsFn
var so tests can simulate cloud-VM, home-LAN, Tailscale-only, and
enumeration-failure topologies without poking at the real network
stack.

reachable anonymously.

Walk every route registered by API() with auth enabled and a fresh
in-memory database (no users, no keys), and assert each API-prefixed
route returns 401 / 404 / 405 to an anonymous request. Public surfaces
(/api/auth/*, /api/branding, /api/node/* token-authenticated routes,
/healthz, branding asset server, generated-content server, static
assets) are explicit allowlist entries with comments justifying them.

* feat(http): XSS hardening — CSP headers, safe href, base-href escape, SVG sandbox

Several closely related XSS-prevention changes spanning the SPA shell, the
React UI, and the branding asset server:

- New SecurityHeaders middleware sets CSP, X-Content-Type-Options,
  X-Frame-Options, and Referrer-Policy on every response. The CSP keeps
  script-src permissive because the Vite bundle relies on inline + eval'd
  scripts; tightening that requires moving to a nonce-based policy.

- The <base href> injection in the SPA shell escaped attacker-controllable
  Host / X-Forwarded-Host headers — a single quote in the host header
  broke out of the attribute. Pass through SecureBaseHref (html.EscapeString).

- Three React sinks rendering untrusted content via dangerouslySetInnerHTML
  switch to text-node rendering with whiteSpace: pre-wrap: user message
  bodies in Chat.jsx and AgentChat.jsx, and the agent activity log in
  AgentChat.jsx. The hand-rolled escape on the agent user-message variant
  is replaced by the same plain-text path.

- New safeHref util collapses non-allowlisted URI schemes (most
  importantly javascript:) to '#'. Applied to gallery `<a href={url}>`
  links in Models / Backends / Manage and to canvas artifact links —
  these come from gallery JSON or assistant tool calls and must be treated
  as untrusted.

- The branding asset server attaches a sandbox CSP plus same-origin CORP
  to .svg responses. The React UI loads logos via <img>, but the same URL
  is also reachable via direct navigation; this prevents script
  execution if a hostile SVG slipped past upload validation.

The handler uses an explicit local body struct (only name and avatar_url)
plus a gorm Updates(map) with a column allowlist, so an attacker posting
{"role":"admin","email":"...","password_hash":"..."} can't mass-assign
those fields. Lock that down with a regression test so a future
"let's just c.Bind(&user)" refactor breaks loudly.

* fix(services): strip directory components from multipart upload filenames

UploadDataset and UploadToCollectionForUser took the raw multipart
file.Filename and joined it into a destination path. The fine-tune
upload was incidentally safe because of a UUID prefix that fused any
leading '..' to a literal segment, but the protection is fragile.
UploadToCollectionForUser handed the filename to a vendored backend
without sanitising at all.

Strip to filepath.Base at both boundaries and reject the trivial
unsafe values ("", ".", "..", "/").

* fix(react-ui): validate persisted MCP server entries on load

localStorage is shared across same-origin pages; an XSS that lands once
can poison persisted MCP server config to attempt header injection or
to feed a non-http URL into the fetch path on subsequent loads.

scheme, header keys/values must be control-char-free. Drop anything

"//evil.com" turned the SPA-shell redirect helper at /, /browse, and
/browse/* into a 301 to //evil.com/app. The path-strip middleware had
the same shape on its prefix-trailing-slash redirect.

Add SafeForwardedPrefix at the middleware boundary: must start with
a single '/', no protocol-relative '//' opener, no scheme, no
backslash, no control characters. Apply at both consumers; misconfig
trips the validator and the header is dropped.

When LOCALAI_CORS=true but LOCALAI_CORS_ALLOW_ORIGINS was empty, Echo's
CORSWithConfig saw an empty allow-list and fell back to its default
AllowOrigins=["*"]. An operator who flipped the strict-CORS feature
flag without populating the list got the opposite of what they asked

* feat(auth): zxcvbn password strength check with user-acknowledged override

The previous policy was len < 8, which let through "Password1" and the
rest of the credential-stuffing corpus. LocalAI has no second factor
yet, so the bar needs to sit higher.

Add ValidatePasswordStrength using github.com/timbutler/zxcvbn (an
actively-maintained fork of the trustelem port; v1.0.4, April 2024):
- min 12 chars, max 72 (bcrypt's truncation point)
- reject NUL bytes (some bcrypt callers truncate at the first NUL)
- require zxcvbn score >= 3 ("safely unguessable, ~10^8 guesses to
  break"); the hint list ["localai", "local-ai", "admin"] penalises
  passwords built from the app's own branding

zxcvbn produces false positives sometimes (a strong-looking password
that happens to match a dictionary word) and operators occasionally
need to set a known-weak password (kiosk demos, CI rigs). Add an
acknowledgement path: PasswordPolicy{AllowWeak: true} skips the
entropy check while still enforcing the hard rules. The structured
PasswordErrorResponse marks weak-password rejections as Overridable
so the UI can surface a "use this anyway" checkbox.

Wired through register, self-service password change, and admin
password reset on both the server and the React UI.

minLength={12} on the new-password input let the browser block the

focused the field, showed a brief native tooltip, and that was that —
no toast, no fetch, no clue. Reproducible by typing fewer than 12
chars on the second password change of a session.

The JS-level length check in handleSubmit already shows a toast and
the server rejects with a structured error, so the HTML5 attribute
was redundant defence anyway. Drop it.

The new CSP correctly refused to apply styles from
fonts.googleapis.com because style-src is locked to 'self' and

right fix is to stop reaching out to a third-party CDN for fonts on
every page load.

Add @fontsource-variable/geist and @fontsource-variable/geist-mono as
npm deps and import them once at boot. Drop the <link rel="preconnect">
and external stylesheet from index.html.

* feat(auth): make password length-floor overridable like the entropy check

The 12-char minimum was a policy choice, not a technical invariant —
only "non-empty", "<= 72 bytes", and "no NUL bytes" are real bcrypt
constraints. Treating length-12 as a hard rule was inconsistent with
the entropy check (already overridable) and friction for use cases
where the account is just a name on a session, not a security
boundary (single-user kiosk, CI rig, lab demo).

Restructure ValidatePasswordStrength:
- Hard rules (always enforced): non-empty, <= MaxPasswordLength, no NUL byte
- Policy rules (skipped when AllowWeak=true): length >= 12, zxcvbn score >= 3

PasswordError now marks password_too_short as Overridable too. The
React forms generalised from `error_code === 'password_too_weak'` to
`overridable === true`, and the JS-side preflight length checks were
removed (server is source of truth, returns the same checkbox flow).

Richard Palethorpe bb033b16a9 feat: add LocalVQE backend and audio transformations UI (#9640)
feat(audio-transform): add LocalVQE backend, bidi gRPC RPC, Studio UI

Introduce a generic "audio transform" capability for any audio-in / audio-out
operation (echo cancellation, noise suppression, dereverberation, voice
conversion, etc.) and ship LocalVQE as the first backend implementation.

Backend protocol:
- Two new gRPC RPCs in backend.proto: unary AudioTransform for batch and
  bidirectional AudioTransformStream for low-latency frame-by-frame use.
  This is the first bidi stream in the proto; per-frame unary at LocalVQE's
  16 ms hop would be RTT-bound. Wire it through pkg/grpc/{client,server,
  embed,interface,base} with paired-channel ergonomics.

LocalVQE backend (backend/go/localvqe/):
- Go-Purego wrapper around upstream liblocalvqe.so. CMake builds the upstream
  shared lib + its libggml-cpu-*.so runtime variants directly — no MODULE
  wrapper needed because LocalVQE handles CPU feature selection internally
  via GGML_BACKEND_DL.
- Sets GGML_NTHREADS from opts.Threads (or runtime.NumCPU()-1) — without it
  LocalVQE runs single-threaded at ~1× realtime instead of the documented
  ~9.6×.
- Reference-length policy: zero-pad short refs, truncate long ones (the
  trailing portion can't have leaked into a mic that wasn't recording).
- Ginkgo test suite (9 always-on specs + 2 model-gated).

HTTP layer:
- POST /audio/transformations (alias /audio/transform): multipart batch
  endpoint, accepts audio + optional reference + params[*]=v form fields.
  Persists inputs alongside the output in GeneratedContentDir/audio so the
  React UI history can replay past (audio, reference, output) triples.
- GET /audio/transformations/stream: WebSocket bidi, 16 ms PCM frames
  (interleaved stereo mic+ref in, mono out). JSON session.update envelope
  for config; constants hoisted in core/schema/audio_transform.go.
- ffmpeg-based input normalisation to 16 kHz mono s16 WAV via the existing
  utils.AudioToWav (with passthrough fast-path), so the user can upload any
  format / rate without seeing the model's strict 16 kHz constraint.
- BackendTraceAudioTransform integration so /api/backend-traces and the
  Traces UI light up with audio_snippet base64 and timing.
- Routes registered under routes/localai.go (LocalAI extension; OpenAI has
  no /audio/transformations endpoint), traced via TraceMiddleware.

Auth + capability + importer:
- FLAG_AUDIO_TRANSFORM (model_config.go), FeatureAudioTransform (default-on,
  in APIFeatures), three RouteFeatureRegistry rows.
- localvqe added to knownPrefOnlyBackends with modality "audio-transform".
- Gallery entry localvqe-v1-1.3m (sha256-pinned, hosted on
  huggingface.co/LocalAI-io/LocalVQE).

React UI:
- New /app/transform page surfaced via a dedicated "Enhance" sidebar
  section (sibling of Tools / Biometrics) — the page is enhancement, not
  generation, so it lives outside Studio. Two AudioInput components
  (Upload + Record tabs, drag-drop, mic capture).
- Echo-test button: records mic while playing the loaded reference through
  the speakers — the mic naturally picks up speaker bleed, giving a real
  (mic, ref) pair for AEC testing without leaving the UI.
- Reusable WaveformPlayer (canvas peaks + click-to-seek + audio controls)
  and useAudioPeaks hook (shared module-scoped AudioContext to avoid
  hitting browser context limits with three players on one page); migrated
  TTS, Sound, Traces audio blocks to use it.
- Past runs saved in localStorage via useMediaHistory('audio-transform') —
  the history entry stores all three URLs so clicking re-renders the full
  triple, not just the output.

Build + e2e:
- 11 matrix entries removed from .github/workflows/backend.yml (CUDA, ROCm,
  SYCL, Metal, L4T): upstream supports only CPU + Vulkan, so we ship those
  two and let GPU-class hardware route through Vulkan in the gallery
  capabilities map.
- tests-localvqe-grpc-transform job in test-extra.yml (gated on
  detect-changes.outputs.localvqe).
- New audio_transform capability + 4 specs in tests/e2e-backends.
- Playwright spec suite in core/http/react-ui/e2e/audio-transform.spec.js
  (8 specs covering tabs, file upload, multipart shape, history, errors).

Docs:
- New docs/content/features/audio-transform.md covering the (audio,
  reference) mental model, batch + WebSocket wire formats, LocalVQE param
  keys, and a YAML config example. Cross-links from text-to-audio and
  audio-to-text feature pages.

Ettore Di Giacinto ade5fd4b97 fix(react-ui): reflect disabled state on SearchableSelect button
The Backend dropdown is disabled while /backends/known is in flight
(disabled={isSubmitting || backendsLoading} in ImportModel.jsx). Until
now the disabled prop only guarded the internal onClick handler — there
was no `disabled` HTML attribute on the <button>, so the element
remained "actionable" from the outside.

That regressed the import-form-ux Batch D / E Playwright tests after
the i18next-suspense PR (#9642): suspending on the importModel
namespace defers the useEffect that fetches /backends/known, so when
the test calls backendTrigger.click() the button is rendered but
backendsLoading is still true. The click hits the no-op branch,
the dropdown stays closed, and `getByRole('option', { name: 'llama-cpp' })`
times out at 30s.

Surfacing the disabled state on the actual <button> makes Playwright
auto-wait until the dropdown is ready, fixes a11y (screen readers now
announce "disabled"), and removes the button from the tab order while
loading.

Ettore Di Giacinto 87cf736068 feat(react-ui): add multilingual (i18n) support (#9642)
Adds end-to-end internationalization to the React UI with five seed
languages (English, Italian, Spanish, German, Simplified Chinese) and
a sidebar-footer language switcher next to the existing theme toggle.

Library: react-i18next + i18next + i18next-http-backend +
i18next-browser-languagedetector. The detector caches the user's
choice in localStorage (key `localai-language`, mirroring the existing
`localai-theme` convention) and updates the `<html lang>` attribute on
change. fallbackLng is `en`, so any missing translation in another
locale falls back transparently.

Translation files live under `public/locales/<lng>/<ns>.json`. They
ride along with the existing `//go:embed react-ui/dist/*` directive,
but the previous SPA route in core/http/app.go only exposed
`/assets/*` from the embedded React build. This commit generalizes
the asset handler into a `serveReactSubdir(subdir)` helper and adds a
matching `/locales/*` route so i18next-http-backend can fetch the
JSONs at runtime. The http-backend `loadPath` is built via the
existing `apiUrl()` helper so instances served under a sub-path (e.g.
`<base href="/ui/">`) resolve correctly.

Namespaces (13): common, nav, errors, auth, home, models, importModel,
chat, agents, skills, collections, media, admin. Translated UI surfaces
include the sidebar/header/footer chrome, login + account flows, the
Home dashboard (incl. the manage-by-chat assistant CTA), the model
gallery + import flow, the chat experience (Chat.jsx + ChatsMenu),
agents/skills/collections list pages, the studio media tabs (Image,
Video, TTS), and the admin page-headers (Settings incl. its section
nav, Manage, Backends, Traces, Nodes, P2P, Users, Usage). Shared
components (ConfirmDialog, Toast) take their default labels from the
common namespace so callers don't need to pass strings explicitly.

Tooling for incremental adoption is included:
  - `i18next-parser.config.js` + `npm run i18n:extract` to sweep `t()`
    keys into the JSON skeletons.
  - `scripts/translate-locales.mjs` (one-off helper) to bootstrap
    non-English locales from English source via OpenAI or Anthropic
    APIs, with --copy mode as a placeholder fallback. Idempotent;
    preserves existing translations unless --overwrite is passed.

Larger config-driven pages (ModelEditor, Settings deep field forms,
AgentChat/AgentCreate, SkillEdit, CollectionDetails, Talk, Sound,
biometrics, FineTune/Quantize, Users modals, Nodes/P2P install
pickers, BackendLogs, Traces deep filters, Explorer) intentionally
keep their inner content untranslated for now — they fall back to
English via fallbackLng so functionality is unaffected, and the
extracted-strings pattern + the bootstrap script make follow-up
extraction straightforward.

The initial Suspense fallback at the root in main.jsx covers the
first JSON fetch on cold load. A simple `.app-boot-spinner` styled
in App.css provides a non-empty paint while the first namespace
loads.

Ettore Di Giacinto b1a99436c7 feat(branding): admin-configurable instance name, tagline, and assets (#9635)
Adds a whitelabeling feature so an operator can replace the LocalAI
instance name, tagline, square logo, horizontal logo, and favicon from
the admin Settings page. Defaults fall back to the bundled assets so
existing installs are unaffected.

The public GET /api/branding endpoint is reachable pre-auth so the
login screen can render the configured branding before sign-in.
Mutating routes (POST/DELETE /api/branding/asset/:kind) remain
admin-only. Text fields (instance_name, instance_tagline) ride the
existing /api/settings flow; binary assets get a dedicated multipart
upload route that persists files under DynamicConfigsDir/branding/.

To prevent the Settings page's stale local state from clobbering an
upload on save, UpdateSettingsEndpoint preserves whatever the on-disk
asset filename fields are regardless of the body — /api/branding/asset/*
are the sole writers for those fields.

The MCP catalog gains get_branding and set_branding tools (text fields
only; file upload stays UI-only) plus a configure_branding skill prompt.

While wiring this up, the same restart-loss class of bug surfaced for
several existing fields whose RuntimeSettings entries were never read
by the startup loader. Fix loadRuntimeSettingsFromFile() to load:

  - branding (instance_name, instance_tagline, *_file basenames)
  - auto_upgrade_backends, prefer_development_backends
  - localai_assistant_enabled
  - open_responses_store_ttl
  - the 7 existing AgentPool fields (enabled, default/embedding model,
    chunking sizes, enable_logs, collection_db_path)

Also exposes 3 new AgentPool runtime settings (vector_engine,
database_url, agent_hub_url) via /api/settings + the Settings UI, with
the same load-on-startup wiring. The file watcher's manual-edit path
is intentionally not changed — the in-process API endpoints already
update appConfig directly, so the watcher is redundant for supported
flows and a separate refactor for everything else.

15 TDD specs cover the loader behaviour (1 branding + 11 adjacent + 3
new agent-pool); 2 specs cover the persistence helpers and the
clobber-prevention contract.

Ettore Di Giacinto 091eda8d70 feat: react chat redesign (#9616)
* feat(react-ui): redesign chat — popover history, focus on send, density pass

Replace the persistent 260px conversation sidebar with a Cmd/Ctrl+K
popover (ChatsMenu) so the conversation owns the page. Once a chat has
at least one message we auto-collapse the global app rail and fade
non-essential header chrome; Esc gives the user back the full chrome
for the rest of the session.

Move Canvas mode and the MCP dropdown into the input wrapper as mode
chips — they describe what's armed for the next message and now live
where the user composes. The chat header drops to Chats · title ·
ModelSelector · overflow · settings, and an overflow menu carries
admin-only Manage mode along with Info / Edit / Export / Clear.

Density pass: tighter header (40px), smaller avatars with the assistant
left-border accent doing the work, 88% bubble width, modern
field-sizing on the textarea, 32px send/stop buttons.

Empty state now surfaces a Recent strip (top 4 non-empty chats) and a
Cmd+K hint, replacing the discoverability the persistent sidebar used
to provide.

* feat(react-ui): chat input chips, slimmer menu, focus mode polish

Move Canvas mode and the MCP dropdown into the input wrapper as compact
mode chips — they describe what's armed for the next message and now
sit where the user composes. The MCP popover flips upward when anchored
to the input row so it stays on-screen.

Eliminate the chat header overflow ("…") menu entirely; relocate each
item to its semantic home so users don't have to remember a
miscellany drawer:

- Manage mode toggle → top of the Settings drawer, alongside the
  other sticky chat knobs. The shield next to the title still
  signals state at a glance.
- Model info / Edit config → small admin-only "ⓘ" button next to the
  ModelSelector; the existing model-info panel now hosts the Edit
  config link.
- Export as Markdown → per-row hover action in ChatsMenu, so it works
  for any chat (not just the active one).
- Clear chat history → destructive button at the bottom of the
  Settings drawer.

Make the Sidebar listen to its own `sidebar-collapse` event so the
chat's focus mode actually shrinks the rail (it previously only
flipped the layout class, leaving the sidebar element at full width
and overlapping the chat). Drop the focus-mode toast — the visual
shift is enough; the toast was noise.

Define `--color-text-tertiary` in both themes; without it metadata
text (recent strip timestamps and a few other sites) was inheriting
the platform default, which read as black on the dark surface.

* fix(model/log-store): close merged channel exactly once; clean up Remove

Two latent races in BackendLogStore.Subscribe could panic under load
(distributed e2e test triggered "send on closed channel" at
backend_log_store.go:288):

1. The aggregated path closed the merged channel `ch` from two
   places — the fan-in waiter goroutine (after all source channels
   drained) and unsubscribe(). When unsubscribe ran while a fan-in
   goroutine was mid-flight on `ch <- line`, the close beat the send
   and the runtime panicked. Now `ch` is closed by exactly one
   goroutine: the waiter that observes all fan-in goroutines finish.
   unsubscribe() only closes the per-buffer source channels — the
   for-range in each fan-in goroutine then exits naturally and the
   waiter takes care of the merged close.

2. Remove() closed every subscriber channel but didn't delete the
   entries from the subscribers map, so a concurrent unsubscribe()
   would call close() again on the already-closed channel
   ("close of closed channel"). Clear the map entry while closing.

Add a regression test that hammers AppendLine concurrently with
Subscribe + unsubscribe + Remove; the race detector catches both
classes of regression.

Ettore Di Giacinto 2da1a4d230 feat(distributed): per-node backend installation from the gallery
In distributed mode the Backends gallery used to fan every install out to
every worker — fine for auto-resolving (meta) backends like llama-cpp where
each node picks its own variant, but wrong for hardware-specific builds
like cpu-llama-cpp that would silently land on every GPU node.

Adds a node-targeted install path through the existing
POST /api/nodes/:id/backends/install plumbing, with two entry points:

- Backends gallery row gets a split-button in distributed mode. Auto-
  resolving keeps "Install on all nodes" as the primary; chevron menu
  opens the picker. Hardware-specific routes the primary directly to the
  picker — no fan-out path on the row.
- Nodes-page drawer gets a "+ Add backend" button that navigates to
  /app/backends?target=<node-id>; the gallery scopes itself to that node
  (banner, single per-row install button, Reinstall/Remove for already-
  installed). One gallery, two scopes — no second UI to maintain.

The picker (new NodeInstallPicker) shows a 3-state suitability column
(Compatible / Override / Installed), an auto-expanding variant override
disclosure that fires when selected nodes have no working GPU, parallel
per-node installs with inline status and Retry-failed-nodes, and a
mismatch confirm that names the consequence on the button itself.

A 409 fan-out guard on /api/backends/apply protects CLI/Terraform/script
users from the same footgun: hardware-specific installs in distributed
mode now return code "concrete_backend_requires_target" with a human-
readable error and a meta_alternative pointer.

The gallery list payload now surfaces capabilities, metaBackendFor and
per-row nodes (NodeBackendRef) so the picker and the new Nodes column
have everything they need without re-walking the gallery client-side.

GODEBUG=netdns=go is set on the compose services because the cgo DNS
resolver follows the container's nsswitch.conf to host systemd-resolved
(127.0.0.53), unreachable from inside the container; the pure-Go
resolver reads /etc/resolv.conf directly and uses Docker's embedded DNS.

  Updates) — clickable to switch tab + pre-set filter.
- Backends meta + development entries hidden by default; "Show meta &
  development" paired toggle in the FilterBar with hidden-count hint.
- Kebab (three-dot) ActionMenu replaces the inline button cluster on
  every row; restrained until hover, keyboard-navigable, danger items
  separated by a divider.
- Backend "Version" cell now falls back to short digest, OCI tag, or
  ocifile basename when no semver is set, instead of showing "—" for
  every OCI install. Detail panel exposes full Source URI + Digest.
- Drop redundant column headers ("Actions", "On") — kebabs and toggles
  carry their own affordance; screen readers still get a label.
- Inline System / User / Meta / Dev badges next to the backend name so
  the dedicated Type column doesn't reserve space for "USER" repeated.
- Tightened the spacing between the System Resources card and the
  StatCards so they no longer crowd the RAM bar.

Extracted StatCard and GalleryLoader from Nodes.jsx and Models.jsx into
shared components so the visual language is one source of truth.

Ettore Di Giacinto 487e3fd2a4 feat(react-ui): editorial refresh with Nord palette and polished primitives (#9550)
* feat(react-ui): editorial refresh with Nord palette and polished primitives

Replaces the cool gray-blue theme with a deep Nord-inspired palette:
frost-cyan accent (#88c0d0) on deep blue-black surfaces (#13171f /
#1a1f2a / #242a36), snow-storm text scale, aurora status colours.

- Typography: Geist Variable + Geist Mono Variable (Google Fonts) with
  ss01/ss03/cv11 stylistic alternates; strengthened h1-h6 hierarchy;
  editorial negative tracking.
- Primitives: buttons gain depth (inset highlight + hover lift +
  brightness filter); inputs become sunken wells with sage-swap-to-frost
  focus rings; cards hover-lift and gain an .card--accent left-rail
  variant; badges become mono caps rectangles with tabular-nums.
- Chrome: sidebar active state is now an inset left rail + tint
  (no border-left); modals get popIn animation and proper shadow lift;
  toasts carry an inset accent bar + slide-in instead of tinted fills;
  operations bar breathes on active installs.
- Empty states: editorial pattern (eyebrow rule, large mono title,
  52ch lede) that inherits gracefully even without page JSX edits.
- Chat: assistant bubbles drop the gray-nested-in-gray card for a
  transparent pull-quote with a left border; user bubbles soften from
  loud accent fill to a subtle frost tint.
- Motion: custom spring easing cubic-bezier(0.22,1,0.36,1), 180ms
  standard; breathing/pulse/popIn keyframes; global prefers-reduced-
  motion honoring.
- Radii tightened to 3/5/8/10px; warm-shadow tokens redone for cool
  depth; ::selection, :focus-visible, kbd globals added.
- Migrated hardcoded 'JetBrains Mono' CSS literals to var(--font-mono)
  so the Geist Mono swap lands everywhere.

Scope is intentionally tokens + primitives only. Page JSX and the
~1,800 inline style={{…}} instances are untouched and flagged as
follow-ups.

* feat(react-ui): complete-coverage pass — migrate inline styles to tokens

Follows up the editorial/Nord token refresh with a mechanical sweep of
page JSX and shared components so nothing bypasses the design system.

- Font family: replaced 80+ 'JetBrains Mono' / 'Space Grotesk' inline
  literals (and the string-CSS variants in CollectionDetails and
  AgentStatus) with var(--font-mono) / var(--font-sans). SVG <text>
  nodes that used the attribute form were switched to style={{ }} so
  the CSS variable resolves.
- Radii: every unquoted numeric borderRadius (2/3/4/10) is now a
  var(--radius-*) token; 50% and 999px kept as computed shapes.
- Spacing: clean-token gaps and margins (4/8/16px) moved to
  var(--spacing-xs/sm/md); padding: '4px 8px' and '8px 16px' lifted
  into token pairs. Micro-values (2/6/10/12px) left inline where no
  token maps cleanly.
- Colors: Talk.jsx button/canvas-surface hardcodes moved to
  var(--color-*); FineTune.jsx chart series colours now use the
  --color-data-* Nord palette (cyan/red/purple/orange instead of
  tailwind hex); AgentStatus tool-call icon and error tag hex swapped
  for var(--color-warning) / var(--color-text-inverse).
- CodeMirror editor (utils/cmTheme.js): both themes rebased on Nord —
  polar-night surfaces and aurora syntax highlighting (dark), snow-
  storm surfaces with darkened aurora (light). Caret/selection/active
  line/search now frost-cyan tinted instead of legacy indigo/purple.

Legitimately dynamic styles (computed widths, per-row colours, canvas
2D context fill/stroke for waveform and spectrogram drawing) remain
inline — they can't be expressed as CSS tokens.

29 files, +237/-237 — identity preserved, semantics re-anchored to
the token system.

Ettore Di Giacinto 4906cbad04 feat: add biometrics UI (#9524)
* feat(react-ui): add Face & Voice Recognition pages

Expose the face and voice biometrics endpoints
(/v1/face/*, /v1/voice/*) through the React UI. Each page has four
tabs driving the six endpoints per modality: Analyze (demographics
with bounding boxes / waveform segments), Compare (verify with a
match gauge and live threshold slider), Enrollment (register /
identify / forget with a top-K matches view), Embedding (raw
vector inspector with sparkline + copy).

MediaInput supports file upload plus live capture: webcam
snap-to-canvas for face, MediaRecorder -> AudioContext ->
16-bit PCM mono WAV transcode for voice (libsndfile on the
backend only handles WAV/FLAC/OGG natively).

Sidebar gets a new Biometrics section feature-gated on
face_recognition / voice_recognition; routes are wrapped in
<RequireFeature>. No new dependencies -- Font Awesome icons
picked from the Free set.

* fix(localai): accept data URI prefixes with codec/charset params

Browser MediaRecorder produces data URIs like
  data:audio/webm;codecs=opus;base64,...
so the pre-';base64,' section can carry multiple parameter
segments. The `^data:([^;]+);base64,` regex in pkg/utils/base64.go
and core/http/endpoints/localai/audio.go only matched exactly one
segment, so recordings straight from the React UI's live-capture
tab failed the strip and then tripped the base64 decoder on the
leading 'data:' literal, surfacing as
  "invalid audio base64: illegal base64 data at input byte 4"

Widened both regexes to `^data:[^,]+?;base64,` so any number of
';param=value' segments between the mime type and ';base64,' are
tolerated. Added a regression test covering the MediaRecorder
shape.

* fix(insightface): scope pack ONNX loading to known manifests

LocalAI's gallery extracts buffalo_* zips flat into the models
directory, which inevitably mixes with ONNX files from other
backends (opencv face engine, MiniFASNet antispoof, WeSpeaker
voice embedding) and older buffalo pack installs. Feeding those
foreign files into insightface's model_zoo.get_model() blows up
inside the router -- it assumes a 4-D NCHW input and indexes
`input_shape[2]` on tensors that aren't shaped like a face model,
raising IndexError mid-load and leaving the backend unusable.

The router's dispatch isn't amenable to per-file try/except alone
(first-file-wins picks det_10g.onnx from buffalo_l even when the
user asked for buffalo_sc -- alphabetical order happens to favour
the wrong pack). Instead, ship an explicit manifest of the
upstream v0.7 pack contents and scope the glob to that when the
requested pack is known. The manifest is small and stable; future
packs can be added alongside or fall through to the tolerance
loop, which also swallows any remaining IndexError / ValueError
from foreign files with a clear `[insightface] skipped` stderr
line for diagnostics.

* fix(speaker-recognition): extract FBank features for rank-3 ONNX encoders

Pre-exported speaker-encoder ONNX graphs come in two shapes:

  rank-2  [batch, samples]           -- some 3D-Speaker exports,
                                        take raw waveform directly.
  rank-3  [batch, frames, n_mels]    -- WeSpeaker and most Kaldi-
                                        lineage encoders, expect
                                        pre-computed Kaldi FBank.

OnnxDirectEngine unconditionally fed `audio.reshape(1, -1)` --
correct for rank-2, IndexError-on-input_shape[3] on rank-3, which
surfaced to the UI as
  "Invalid rank for input: feats Got: 2 Expected: 3"

Detect the input rank at session init and run Kaldi FBank
(80-dim, 25ms/10ms frames, dither=0.0, per-utterance CMN) before
the forward pass when rank>=3. All knobs are configurable via
backend options for encoders that deviate from defaults.

torchaudio.compliance.kaldi is already in the backend's
requirements (SpeechBrain pulls torchaudio in), so no new
dependency.

* fix(biometrics): isolate face and voice vector stores

Face (ArcFace, 512-D) and voice (ECAPA-TDNN 192-D / WeSpeaker
256-D) biometric embeddings were colliding inside a single
in-memory local-store instance. Enrolling one after the other
failed with
  "Try to add key with length N when existing length is M"
because local-store correctly refuses to mix dimensions in one
keyspace.

The registries were constructed with `storeName=""`, which in
StoreBackend() is just a WithModel() call. But ModelLoader's
cache is keyed on `modelID`, not `model` -- so both registries
collapsed to the same `modelID=""` slot and reused the same
backend process despite looking isolated on paper.

Three complementary fixes:

  1. application.go -- give each registry a distinct default
     namespace ("localai-face-biometrics" /
     "localai-voice-biometrics"). The comment claimed
     isolation, now it's actually enforced.

  2. stores.go -- pass the storeName as both WithModelID and
     WithModel so the ModelLoader cache key separates
     namespaces and the loader spawns distinct processes.

  3. local-store/store.go -- drop the Load() `opts.Model != ""`
     guard. It was there to prevent generic model-loading loops
     from picking up local-store by accident, but that auto-load
     path is being retired; the guard now just blocks legitimate
     namespace isolation. opts.Model is treated as a tag; the
     per-tuple process isolation upstream handles discrimination.

* fix(gallery): stale-file cleanup and upgrade-tmp directory safety

Two related robustness fixes for backend install/upgrade:

pkg/downloader/uri.go
  OCI downloads passed through
      if filepath.Ext(filePath) != "" ...
          filePath = filepath.Dir(filePath)
  which was intended to redirect file-shaped download targets
  into their parent directory for OCI extraction. The heuristic
  misfires on directory-shaped paths with a dot-suffix --
  gallery.UpgradeBackend uses
      tmpPath = "<backendsPath>/<name>.upgrade-tmp"
  and Go's filepath.Ext treats ".upgrade-tmp" as an extension.
  The rewrite landed the extraction at "<backendsPath>/", which
  then **overwrote the real install** (backends/<name>/) with a
  flat-layout file and left a stray run.sh at the top level. The
  tmp dir itself stayed empty, so the validation step that
  checked "<tmpPath>/run.sh" predictably failed with
      "upgrade validation failed: run.sh not found in new backend"
  Every manual upgrade silently corrupted the backends tree this
  way. Guard the rewrite behind "target isn't already an existing
  directory" -- InstallBackend / UpgradeBackend both pre-create
  the target as a directory, so they get the correct behaviour;
  existing file-path callers with a genuine dot-extension still
  get the parent redirect.

core/gallery/backends.go
  InstallBackend's MkdirAll returned ENOTDIR when something at
  the target path was already a file (legacy dev builds dropped
  golang backend binaries directly at `<backendsPath>/<name>`
  instead of nesting them under their own subdir). That
  permanently blocked reinstall and upgrade for anyone carrying
  that state, since every retry hit the same error. Detect a
  pre-existing non-directory, warn, and remove it before the
  MkdirAll so the fresh install can write the correct nested
  layout with metadata.json + run.sh.

* fix(galleryop): refresh upgrade cache after backend ops

UpgradeChecker caches the last upgrade-check result and only
refreshes on the 6-hour tick or after an auto-upgrade cycle.
Manual upgrades (POST /api/backends/upgrade/:name) go through
the async galleryop worker, which completes the upgrade
correctly but never tells UpgradeChecker to re-check -- so
/api/backends/upgrades continued to list a just-upgraded backend
as upgradeable, indistinguishable from a failed upgrade, for up
to six hours.

Add an optional `OnBackendOpCompleted func()` hook on
GalleryService that fires after every successful install /
upgrade / delete on the backend channel (async, so a slow
callback doesn't stall the queue). startup.go wires it to
UpgradeChecker.TriggerCheck after both services exist. Result:
the upgrade banner clears within milliseconds of the worker
finishing.

* build: prepend GOPATH/bin to PATH for protogen-go

install-go-tools runs `go install` for protoc-gen-go and
protoc-gen-go-grpc, which writes them into `go env GOPATH`/bin.
That directory isn't on every dev's PATH, and protoc resolves
its code-gen plugins via PATH, so the immediately-following
protoc invocation fails with
  "protoc-gen-go: program not found"
which in turn blocks `make build` and any
`make backends/%` target that depends on build.

Prepend `go env GOPATH`/bin to PATH for the protoc invocation
so the freshly-installed plugins are found without requiring a
shell-profile change.

* refactor(ui-api): non-blocking backend upgrade handler with opcache

POST /api/backends/upgrade/:name used to send the ManagementOp
directly onto the unbuffered BackendGalleryChannel, which blocked
the HTTP request whenever the galleryop worker was busy with a
prior operation. The op also didn't show up in /api/operations,
so the Backends UI couldn't reflect upgrade progress on the
affected row.

Register the op in opcache immediately, wrap it in a cancellable
context, store the cancellation function on the GalleryService,
and push onto the channel from a goroutine so the handler
returns right away. Response gains a `jobID` field and a
`message` string so clients have a consistent handle regardless
of whether the op is queued or running.

Pairs with the OnBackendOpCompleted hook added in the galleryop
commit — together the UI sees the upgrade start, watches
progress via /api/operations, and drops the "upgradeable" flag
the moment the worker finishes.

Ettore Di Giacinto f0c92610a1 feat(importer): expand importer flow to almost all backends (#9466)
* docs(agents): require importer integration when adding backends

Document the importer registry workflow so contributors know that adding
a new backend also requires updating the /import-model dropdown source:
either a new importer in core/gallery/importers/, extending an existing
one for drop-in replacements, or the pref-only slice for backends with
no reliable auto-detect signal. Always covered by a table-driven test.

Assisted-by: Claude:claude-opus-4-7[1m] [Agent]

* test(gallery/importers): add failing tests for Batch 0 primitives

Introduce failing tests that drive Batch 0 of the importer expansion:

- pkg/huggingface-api: assert GetModelDetails populates PipelineTag and
  LibraryName from /api/models/{repo}, and that a failing metadata
  endpoint still returns file details (best-effort fetch).
- core/gallery/importers/helpers_test.go: new table-driven coverage for
  HasFile, HasExtension, HasONNX, HasONNXConfigPair, HasGGMLFile.
- core/gallery/importers/importers_test.go: assert ErrAmbiguousImport
  sentinel exists and round-trips through errors.Is.
- core/gallery/importers/local_test.go: extend with detection cases for
  ggml-*.bin (whisper), silero_vad.onnx (silero-vad), and the piper
  .onnx + .onnx.json pair.
- core/http/endpoints/localai/import_model_test.go: assert
  ImportModelURIEndpoint returns HTTP 400 with a structured
  {error, detail, hint} body when ErrAmbiguousImport surfaces.

All tests fail in the expected places (missing fields, missing
helpers, missing sentinel, endpoint still wraps as 500).

* feat(gallery/importers): Batch 0 foundation — helpers, sentinel, local detection

Implements the Batch 0 primitives that subsequent importer batches build on:

- pkg/huggingface-api: ModelDetails gains PipelineTag and LibraryName.
  GetModelDetails now layers a best-effort GET /api/models/{repo} fetch
  on top of ListFiles — a metadata outage leaves the fields empty but
  still returns full file details. Uses a dedicated response struct
  because the single-model endpoint uses snake_case keys while the list
  endpoint historically returned camelCase.

- core/gallery/importers/helpers.go: generic HasFile, HasExtension,
  HasONNX, HasONNXConfigPair, HasGGMLFile helpers working on
  []hfapi.ModelFile so per-backend importers can detect artefact
  patterns without duplicating string wrangling.

- core/gallery/importers/importers.go: adds the ErrAmbiguousImport
  sentinel. DiscoverModelConfig now returns it (wrapped with
  fmt.Errorf("%w: ...")) when no importer matched AND the HF
  pipeline_tag falls in a whitelist of narrow modalities (ASR, TTS,
  sentence-similarity, text-classification, object-detection). The
  whitelist is intentionally narrow — unknown tags keep the previous
  "no importer matched" behaviour to avoid blocking rare repos.

- core/gallery/importers/local.go: three new local-path detections,
  inserted before the existing merged-transformers branch:
    * ggml-*.bin → whisper
    * silero*.onnx → silero-vad
    * *.onnx + *.onnx.json pair → piper

- core/http/endpoints/localai/import_model.go: ImportModelURIEndpoint
  surfaces ErrAmbiguousImport as HTTP 400 with
  {error, detail, hint} JSON, preserving existing behaviour for
  unrelated errors.

Green tests:
  go test ./core/gallery/importers/... ./pkg/huggingface-api/... \
          ./core/http/endpoints/localai/...

* test(importers): red tests for KnownBackend endpoint and importer metadata

Add failing tests that drive Batch UI-Dropdown:

- importers_test.go: assert importers expose Name/Modality/AutoDetects
  and that LlamaCPPImporter advertises drop-in replacements via a new
  AdditionalBackendsProvider interface. A Registry() accessor is also
  expected.

- backend_test.go (new): assert GET /backends/known returns
  []schema.KnownBackend, covers every importer, exposes drop-in
  llama-cpp replacements, includes curated pref-only backends, has no
  duplicates, and is sorted by Modality+Name.

These tests fail at compile time against master; they are intentionally
red so the follow-up green commit is reviewable.

* feat(gallery): add /backends/known endpoint for importer-aware backend list

Extend the Importer interface with Name/Modality/AutoDetects so the
import system can self-describe its registry, and introduce the
AdditionalBackendsProvider interface so importers can advertise drop-in
replacements (llama-cpp advertises ik-llama-cpp and turboquant).

Expose the new GET /backends/known endpoint that merges:

- the importer registry (auto-detect supported),
- drop-in replacements hosted by importers (preference-only),
- a curated knownPrefOnlyBackends slice for backends with no dedicated
  importer (sglang, tinygrad, trl, mlx-vlm, whisperx, kokoros, Qwen TTS
  variants, sam3-cpp) — kept at the top of backend.go so contributors
  adding a new pref-only backend have one obvious place to edit,
- backends installed on disk but unknown to the importer (marked
  AutoDetect=false, empty Modality).

The endpoint deliberately does NOT filter by gallery membership or host
capability (unlike /backends/available): LocalAI may auto-install a
backend that is not yet present, so the import form dropdown must show
everything the importer knows about.

Response is deduplicated (importer wins over pref-only) and sorted by
Modality+Name for deterministic output.

Registered in core/http/routes/localai.go next to /backends/available
under the same admin middleware.

* feat(ui): source import form backend dropdown from /backends/known

Replace the hard-coded BACKENDS constant in ImportModel.jsx with a
live fetch of /backends/known on mount. Users now see every backend
the importer layer knows about (including preference-only entries)
grouped by modality, not a stale subset.

Changes:

- config.js: add backendsKnown endpoint constant next to
  backendsAvailable.
- api.js: add backendsApi.listKnown() wrapper.
- ImportModel.jsx: remove BACKENDS constant, fetch the list via
  useEffect, and derive grouped options via buildBackendOptions.
  Preference-only entries render with a " (preference-only)" suffix.
  Loading state disables the dropdown with a "Loading backends…"
  placeholder; on fetch failure the form falls back to auto-detect
  only and surfaces a non-blocking toast.
- SearchableSelect.jsx: accept items flagged isHeader=true and render
  them as non-selectable section dividers. Keyboard navigation skips
  headers and search queries hide them so filtered output stays
  relevant.

Vitest is not set up in this project (devDependencies ship Playwright
only). Per the brief's guard-rail, no frontend test framework is
introduced; coverage is provided by the Go handler tests that assert
the /backends/known contract consumed by the React form.

* test(gallery/importers): TTS ambiguity surfaces ErrAmbiguousImport

Adds a Ginkgo spec that imports nari-labs/Dia-1.6B — a real HF repo
carrying pipeline_tag="text-to-speech" whose artefacts (*.pth, one
safetensors shard, preprocessor_config.json, config.json) match none of
the Batch-2 TTS importers nor the generic text/image importers — and
asserts DiscoverModelConfig wraps ErrAmbiguousImport via errors.Is.

Also pivots the endpoint-level ambiguity fixture from hexgrad/Kokoro-82M
to nari-labs/Dia-1.6B. Batch 2 added a dedicated kokoro importer that
now claims the original fixture; Dia remains genuinely unclaimed and
so exercises the same ambiguity code path at the HTTP layer.

Adds text-to-image to ambiguousModalities whitelist and covers the

.bin/.safetensors so diffusers, stablediffusion-ggml, llama-cpp,

* test(gallery/importers): add failing tests for vllm-omni importer

Introduces the test surface for the forthcoming VLLMOmniImporter:
detection via preferences.backend, Qwen owner + Omni repo token,
URI-only fallback, negative cases (plain Qwen, random OmniX repo), and
Import() emitting backend: vllm-omni with chat + multimodal usecases.

Includes a registration-order assertion via DiscoverModelConfig to pin
the requirement that vllm-omni wins over vllm for Qwen Omni repos
(tokenizer files are usually present too).

Assisted-by: Claude:claude-opus-4-7[1m] [Agent]

* feat(gallery/importers): add vllm-omni importer

Adds VLLMOmniImporter for Qwen Omni-style multimodal checkpoints
(Qwen3-Omni, Qwen2.5-Omni, …). Detection is narrow: HF owner "Qwen"
combined with "omni" in the repo name, or a repo name matching the
-Omni-/Omni- naming pattern. preferences.backend="vllm-omni" always
wins; HFOwnerRepoFromURI provides a URI-only fallback for the hfapi
recursion-bug edge case.

Emitted YAML sets backend: vllm-omni and known_usecases: [chat,
multimodal], matching the gallery/index.yaml vllm-omni entries. The
importer is registered ahead of VLLMImporter so Qwen Omni repos —
which also carry tokenizer files — route to vllm-omni rather than the
plain vllm backend.

* test(gallery/importers): add failing tests for llama-cpp drop-in preferences

Pins the expected drop-in replacement behaviour: preferences.backend
of ik-llama-cpp or turboquant must swap the emitted YAML backend
field while keeping the llama-cpp file layout identical. Also covers
the unknown-backend case (must stay llama-cpp) and re-asserts
AdditionalBackends() returns the two curated entries with non-empty
descriptions.

Assisted-by: Claude:claude-opus-4-7[1m] [Agent]

* feat(gallery/importers): llama-cpp honours ik-llama-cpp and turboquant drop-in preferences

preferences.backend set to ik-llama-cpp or turboquant now swaps the
emitted YAML backend field while leaving the file layout, model path,
mmproj handling and everything else in the llama-cpp Import pipeline
untouched. Unknown values are ignored and fall back to backend:
llama-cpp so arbitrary input can't leak into the config.

Aligns the AdditionalBackends() descriptions with the user-facing
naming conventions surfaced via /backends/known. No changes to the
pref-only curated list in endpoints/localai/backend.go: the two
drop-in names have always lived on the importer side via
AdditionalBackends.

config.json + stopword .txt files — none of the Batch 5 importers
(silero-vad, rerankers, sentencetransformers, rfdetr) or the generic
vllm/transformers/llama-cpp/mlx/diffusers importers match. Because the
modality is in the ambiguous whitelist, DiscoverModelConfig must
surface ErrAmbiguousImport.

* test(localai/backend): red tests for KnownBackend.Installed flag

Extend the /backends/known suite with three failing cases that pin down
the forthcoming Installed field: JSON field presence on every entry,
flipping to true when an importer-registered backend is also present on
disk (and staying false for non-installed pref-only entries), and
surfacing system-only backends with empty modality and AutoDetect=false.

A small writeFakeSystemBackend helper plants a run.sh under the backends
dir so gallery.ListSystemBackends recognises the fixture.

* feat(schema,localai/backend): add Installed flag to KnownBackend

Add an Installed bool to schema.KnownBackend and populate it from the
/backends/known handler so the React import form can warn users that
picking a not-yet-installed backend will trigger an automatic download
on submit.

Computation: after merging the importer registry, additional backends
provider entries and the curated pref-only slice, the handler walks
gallery.ListSystemBackends(systemState) and either flips the existing
map entry's Installed flag to true (preserving modality / autodetect /
description metadata) or inserts a bare {Installed:true} entry for
system-only backends the importer layer doesn't know about.

* test(localai/import_model): structured ambiguous-import response

Add red tests covering the extended ambiguity shape the React import
form needs:

- ImportModelURIEndpoint must return an HTTP 400 body that exposes the
  detected `modality` (normalised to the importer modality key, e.g.
  "tts" for pipeline_tag=text-to-speech) and a list of `candidates`
  (backend names filtered by modality, excluding text-LLM backends).
- The importers package must surface a typed AmbiguousImportError so
  HTTP consumers can read Modality + Candidates without parsing the
  error string. errors.Is against the existing sentinel keeps working.

Assisted-by: Claude:claude-opus-4-7[1m] [Agent]

* feat(localai/import_model): structured ambiguity response with modality + candidates

DiscoverModelConfig now returns a typed AmbiguousImportError that
carries the importer modality key, candidate backend names, the
original URI, and the raw HF pipeline_tag. Its Is() preserves
errors.Is(err, ErrAmbiguousImport) for legacy callers.

The importer modality is pre-mapped from the HF pipeline_tag
(automatic-speech-recognition → asr, text-to-speech → tts, etc) via
PipelineTagToModality — surfaced as an exported helper so downstream
consumers can avoid duplicating the table. CandidatesForModality
filters the default importer registry plus AdditionalBackendsProvider
drop-ins by modality, sorts deterministically, and is the single
source of truth used by ImportModelURIEndpoint.

ImportModelURIEndpoint now returns HTTP 400 with
  { error, detail, modality, candidates, hint }
when ambiguity fires, letting the React form render a modality-scoped
picker inline instead of a generic toast.

* test(ui/import): manual pick badge + tooltip

Red Playwright coverage for the preference-only → manual pick rename:

- The Backend dropdown renders a "manual pick" badge on every option
  whose KnownBackend.auto_detect is false.
- The badge carries a title attribute with hover-tooltip copy that
  explains auto-detect won't route to this backend.
- Auto-detectable backends must NOT carry the badge.
- The legacy " (preference-only)" suffix is gone from every label.

Assisted-by: Claude:claude-opus-4-7[1m] [Agent]

* ui(import): replace preference-only suffix with manual pick badge

SearchableSelect option rows now support an optional badge field — a
muted pill rendered to the right of the label with an optional title
attribute for native hover tooltips. Plain text so screen readers read
it alongside the option name.

buildBackendOptions in ImportModel stops appending " (preference-only)"
to the label and instead sets badge="manual pick" plus a descriptive
tooltip on every option whose auto_detect is false. The Backend help
text explains what "manual pick" means so users aren't left wondering
about the badge.

* test(ui/import): inline ambiguity picker

Red Playwright coverage for Batch A2 — when the server returns a 400
ambiguity body, the form must render an inline alert instead of a
toast, expose one clickable chip per candidate backend, and support
both auto-resubmit on pick and silent dismiss.

- Mocks /api/models/import-uri with the structured ambiguity body
  (error, detail, modality, candidates, hint).
- On first click of Import, the alert is visible, carries
  modality-specific copy, and shows a chip per candidate.
- Clicking a chip clears the alert, sets the Backend dropdown, and
  triggers a second POST to /api/models/import-uri.
- Dismissing the alert leaves the Backend dropdown on Auto-detect —
  no implicit backend assignment.

Assisted-by: Claude:claude-opus-4-7[1m] [Agent]

* feat(ui/import): inline ambiguity alert with candidate chips

Adds AmbiguityAlert — a soft, info-coloured card rendered above the URI
input when the server returns a structured 400 with { modality,
candidates }. Message is modality-aware (tts/asr/embeddings/image/
reranker/detection get purpose-written copy, everything else falls back
to a generic template). Each candidate is a clickable chip that shows a
download icon when /backends/known marks the backend as not yet
installed, so users aren't surprised by an implicit install.

ImportModel wires the alert to handleSimpleImport's error path:
- api.handleResponse now attaches { status, body } to the thrown Error
  so pages can pattern-match on structured responses instead of string
  error messages.
- handleSimpleImport detects `status === 400 && body.error === 'ambiguous
  import'` and flips into the inline-picker mode instead of toasting.
- Clicking a chip sets prefs.backend and auto-resubmits (passing the
  picked backend as an override so setPrefs's asynchrony doesn't leak
  a stale value).
- Dismissing clears the alert; changing the URI or the backend also
  clears it so a stale alert never sticks around.

Test fixtures mock GET /backends/known + POST /models/import-uri so the
Playwright specs don't depend on real network reachability.

* test(ui/import): auto-install warning

Red Playwright coverage for Batch A3 — when the user picks a backend
whose KnownBackend.installed is false, the form must render a muted
inline note under the Backend dropdown warning that submitting will
download the backend first. Picking an installed backend or leaving
Auto-detect selected must keep the note hidden.

* feat(ui/import): auto-install warning under backend dropdown

When the user picks a backend whose KnownBackend.installed is false,
render a muted inline note under the Backend dropdown's help text
warning that submitting will download the backend first. The note
lives inside the same form-group so it lines up with the existing
hint text; it's hidden when Auto-detect is selected (the selected
backend is unknowable at that point) or when the chosen backend is
already on disk.

* ui(import): drop redundant section header, adjust icons, rename HF shortcut

- Remove the "Import from URI" card-level <h2> — the page title already
  says "Import New Model" one row up, so the secondary header was
  duplicating information.
- Swap the fa-star on "Common Preferences" for fa-sliders (stars imply
  favourites/ratings; this is just a preferences block) and move the
  Custom Preferences fa-sliders-h to fa-plus-circle so the two blocks
  read as distinct rather than as two sliders.
- Rename the HF shortcut from "Search GGUF on HF" → "Browse models on
  HF" and drop the `search=gguf` filter on the linked URL. The import
  form now supports ~40 backends; hard-coding GGUF in the copy no
  longer matches the form's actual reach.
- Pure polish — no behaviour change, covered by the existing Batch A
  Playwright suite.

* test(ui/import): batch B — simple/power switch, options, tabs, dialog

Adds a failing Playwright suite covering the full Batch B surface ahead
of implementation:

- B1: SimplePowerSwitch segmented control renders, toggles, persists to
  localStorage across reloads.
- B2: Simple-mode Options disclosure is collapsed by default; expanding
  exposes only Backend, Model Name, Description (no quantizations,
  mmproj, model type, or custom prefs).
- B3: Power mode has Preferences and YAML tabs with a persistent
  selection across reloads; URI/name/description typed in Simple carry
  over to Power; YAML tab swaps the primary action to Create.
- B4: Switching Power -> Simple with a custom preference set triggers
  the 3-button confirmation dialog (Keep / Discard / Cancel) with the
  documented semantics.

Tests fail against master — implementation lands in the following
commits.

* feat(ui/import): add SimplePowerSwitch segmented control

Replaces the previous "Advanced Mode / Simple Mode" toggle button in the
page header with a two-segment control that flips between Simple and
Power. The control reuses the existing .segmented CSS shared with the
Sound page for visual consistency.

Mode state is persisted to localStorage under `import-form-mode` so
reloads land on the same view (default: simple). The boolean alias
`isAdvancedMode` is retained internally to minimise diff — subsequent
commits reshape the Simple and Power surfaces independently.

Closes B1 from the Batch B Playwright suite.

Assisted-by: Claude:claude-opus-4-7[1m] [Agent]

* feat(ui/import): simple mode collapsible options, power tabs, switch dialog

Completes the Batch B surface in a single structural pass so Simple and
Power mode can evolve independently:

Simple mode
  - URI input + Ambiguity alert + Import button, plus a collapsible
    "Options" disclosure that exposes ONLY Backend, Model Name,
    Description. Quantizations / MMProj / Model Type / Diffusers fields
    / Custom Preferences are no longer rendered in Simple mode.

Power mode
  - In-page segmented "Preferences · YAML" tab strip. Active tab
    persists to localStorage under `import-form-power-tab`.
  - Preferences tab = the full existing preferences + custom prefs
    panel (no progressive disclosure yet — that's Batch D).
  - YAML tab = the existing CodeEditor. Primary button reads "Create"
    here, "Import Model" everywhere else.

Switch dialog
  - Power -> Simple with non-default prefs (advanced pref keys set,
    any custom-pref key non-empty, or YAML edited away from the
    template) opens a 3-button dialog: Keep & switch / Discard &
    switch / Cancel.
  - Keep preserves all state. Discard resets prefs + customPrefs + YAML
    to defaults. Cancel leaves the user in Power mode.

Page subtitle reflects the current surface (Simple, Power/Preferences,
Power/YAML). Estimate banner renders everywhere except Power/YAML.

Closes B2/B3/B4 from the Batch B Playwright suite.

* test(ui/import): expand Options disclosure in Batch A tests

Batch B hid the Backend dropdown behind a collapsible Options disclosure
in Simple mode. The Batch A tests that exercise the dropdown directly
(manual-pick badge, ambiguity chip sets the selected backend, auto-
install warning) now click the disclosure toggle before asserting on
dropdown contents. Test intent is unchanged.

* ui(import): strip decorative icons from field labels

The preference panel had 12 Font Awesome icons decorating field labels
(Backend, Model Name, Description, Quantizations, MMProj Quantizations,
Model Type, Pipeline Type, Scheduler Type, Enable Parameters, Embeddings,
CUDA, plus fa-link on Model URI). Every label screamed equally, flattening
the visual hierarchy.

Remove them. Keep icons where they carry meaning: page-level section
headers, URI format guide entries, primary buttons, the Simple-mode
Options disclosure, the ambiguity alert's fa-lightbulb, the auto-install
note's fa-download, and the Estimated-requirements banner's
fa-memory / fa-microchip / fa-download.

No new behaviour, no layout / spacing changes beyond removing the
orphaned icon margin. Playwright suite green.

* test(ui/import): progressive disclosure of preference fields

Cover the Batch D visibility matrix for Power > Preferences: Quantizations,
MMProj Quantizations, and Model Type each render only for the backends that
can consume them, stay visible when the backend is unset, and preserve any
value the user already typed when toggled off and back on. Also pin the
shrunk Description textarea at rows=2.

* feat(ui/import): progressive disclosure + shorter description textarea

Gate Quantizations, MMProj Quantizations, and Model Type in the Power >
Preferences tab so each field only renders for the backends that can
actually consume it. Backend unset keeps everything visible. Hidden
fields' state is preserved (the JSX wrapper is guarded, not the
underlying prefs state) so users flipping backends back and forth don't
lose input.

Also shrink the Description textarea from rows=3 to rows=2 — it's
shared between Simple Options and Power Preferences so the change
applies to both.

* feat(ui/import): enter-to-submit in Simple mode

Wrap the Simple-mode URI input + ambiguity alert + Options disclosure
in a <form> whose onSubmit calls handleSimpleImport. Pressing Enter in
the URI input (or any Simple-mode text input) now submits the import
without having to move the mouse to the header button. The Description
textarea keeps its native behaviour — Enter inserts a newline.

A hidden submit button is included because the visible Import button
lives outside the form in the page header; some browsers only fire
implicit Enter-submit when the form contains a submit-capable element.

* ui(import,SearchableSelect,components): aria-hidden on decorative icons

Every Font Awesome icon in the import form is decorative — its meaning
is already conveyed by adjacent visible text. Adding aria-hidden="true"
prevents screen readers from announcing the unicode glyph point as
content. Covers ImportModel.jsx (all remaining <i> glyphs) and
SearchableSelect.jsx (the trigger chevron).

AmbiguityAlert and SimplePowerSwitch already set aria-hidden on their
icons when the components landed in Batches A and B — no change needed
there.

* ui(SearchableSelect): responsive dropdown maxHeight + hover focus guard

F2 — replace fixed pixel heights with min(pixel, vh) so the dropdown
and its inner scroll region don't overflow short viewports. Outer
container: 260px -> min(260px, 60vh); inner listbox: 200px ->
min(200px, 50vh). Tall viewports still get the original pixel caps.

F5 — short-circuit onMouseEnter when the hovered row is already the
focused row. Avoids queueing a setFocusIndex call (and a render) for
every mousemove inside the same item — the state would be identical.

* ui(import): aria-label on custom preference rows

The Key / Value inputs and trash button in each Custom Preferences row
previously relied on placeholder text alone. Placeholders are not
accessible names — they vanish on input and screen readers do not
announce them consistently. Add row-indexed aria-labels so assistive
tech can distinguish "Preference key for row 1" from "row 2", and give
the trash button an explicit "Remove this preference" label.

Red tests for Batch E — a horizontal modality chip row that filters the
Backend dropdown by modality. Covers visibility in Simple-mode Options

mismatched-backend clearing with toast, ambiguity-alert auto-selection,
and radiogroup keyboard navigation.

Assisted-by: Claude:claude-opus-4-7[1m] [Agent]

* feat(ui/import): add ModalityChips component + filter integration

Horizontal chip row (Any, Text, Speech, TTS, Image, Embeddings,
Rerankers, Detection, VAD) filters the Backend dropdown options to the
selected modality. Default is Any — no filter, current behaviour.

- New ModalityChips component (radiogroup pattern, roving tabindex,
  arrow-key navigation, Home/End).
- buildBackendOptions now accepts an optional modalityFilter so grouped
  output is narrowed before rendering.
- Chips render inside Simple-mode Options disclosure and Power >
  Preferences tab. Power > YAML stays unaffected.
- Switching the filter drops a mismatched backend selection and
  surfaces a toast so the auto-clear is visible.
- Ambiguity alerts auto-activate the matching chip so users see only
  relevant backends even if they dismiss the alert.

Tightens the Batch E tests' option-matching to the label <span> so the
"↵" keybind hint on the focused row doesn't break accessible-name
lookups.

lacked an explicit type attribute, so it defaulted to type="submit". Every
click triggered the form's onSubmit and surfaced the empty-URI validation
toast ("Please enter a model URI"). Marking it type="button" lets it
behave as a pure toggle.

While here, rename the user-visible "Power" label to "Advanced" in the
mode switch (button text + tooltip) and the Power-mode tab's aria-label,
matching the term users actually expect. The internal mode key stays
'power' so tests, localStorage, and data-testid selectors are untouched.

* fix(system): fall back to cpu when meta backend lacks default capability

Meta backends like vllm and sglang enumerate concrete variants for
nvidia/amd/intel/cpu but omit a default: catch-all entry. On a no-GPU
host the reported capability is "default", so the previous Capability()
returned "default" unconditionally on a miss — IsCompatibleWith then saw
no "default" key and filtered the meta out of AvailableBackends. The
import flow's auto-install step then failed with "no backend found with
name <meta>", contradicting the UI's promise that the backend would be
downloaded on demand.

Try the explicit "default" key first, then fall back to "cpu" before
giving up. vllm now resolves to cpu-vllm on CPU-only Linux without
touching the gallery YAML.

Ettore Di Giacinto 75a63f87d8 feat(distributed): sync state with frontends, better backend management reporting (#9426)
* fix(distributed): detect backend upgrades across worker nodes

Before this change `DistributedBackendManager.CheckUpgrades` delegated to the
local manager, which read backends from the frontend filesystem. In
distributed deployments the frontend has no backends installed locally —
they live on workers — so the upgrade-detection loop never ran and the UI
silently never surfaced upgrades even when the gallery advertised newer
versions or digests.

Worker-side: NATS backend.list reply now carries Version, URI and Digest
for each installed backend (read from metadata.json).

Frontend-side: DistributedBackendManager.ListBackends aggregates per-node
refs (name, status, version, digest) instead of deduping, and CheckUpgrades
feeds that aggregation into gallery.CheckUpgradesAgainst — a new entrypoint
factored out of CheckBackendUpgrades so both paths share the same core
logic.

Cluster drift policy: when per-node version/digest tuples disagree, the
backend is flagged upgradeable regardless of whether any single node
matches the gallery, and UpgradeInfo.NodeDrift enumerates the outliers so
operators can see *why* it is out of sync. The next upgrade-all realigns
the cluster.

Tests cover: drift detection, unanimous-match (no upgrade), and the
empty-installed-version path that the old distributed code silently
missed.

* feat(ui): surface backend upgrades in the System page

The System page (Manage.jsx) only showed updates as a tiny inline arrow,
so operators routinely missed them. Port the Backend Gallery's upgrade UX
so System speaks the same visual language:

- Yellow banner at the top of the Backends tab when upgrades are pending,
  with an "Upgrade all" button (serial fan-out, matches the gallery) and a
  "Updates only" filter toggle.
- Warning pill (↑ N) next to the tab label so the count is glanceable even
  when the banner is scrolled out of view.
- Per-row labeled "Upgrade to vX.Y" button (replaces the icon-only button
  that silently flipped semantics between Reinstall and Upgrade), plus an
  "Update available" badge in the new Version column.
- New columns: Version (with upgrade + drift chips), Nodes (per-node
  attribution badges for distributed mode, degrading to a compact
  "on N nodes · M offline" chip above three nodes), Installed (relative
  time).
- System backends render a "Protected" chip instead of a bare "—" so rows
  still align and the reason is obvious.
- Delete uses the softer btn-danger-ghost so rows don't scream red; the
  ConfirmDialog still owns the "are you sure".

The upgrade checker also needed the same per-worker fix as the previous
commit: NewUpgradeChecker now takes a BackendManager getter so its
periodic runs call the distributed CheckUpgrades (which asks workers)
instead of the empty frontend filesystem. Without this the /api/backends/
upgrades endpoint stayed empty in distributed mode even with the protocol
change in place.

New CSS primitives — .upgrade-banner, .tab-pill, .badge-row, .cell-stack,
.cell-mono, .cell-muted, .row-actions, .btn-danger-ghost — all live in
App.css so other pages can adopt them without duplicating styles.

* feat(ui): polish the Nodes page so it reads like a product

The Nodes page was the biggest visual liability in distributed mode.
Rework the main dashboard surfaces in place without changing behavior:

StatCards: uniform height (96px min), left accent bar colored by the
metric's semantic (success/warning/error/primary), icon lives in a
36x36 soft-tinted chip top-right, value is left-aligned and large.
Grid auto-fills so the row doesn't collapse on narrow viewports. This
replaces the previous thin-bordered boxes with inconsistent heights.

Table rows: expandable rows now show a chevron cue on the left (rotates
on expand) so users know rows open. Status cell became a dedicated chip
with an LED-style halo dot instead of a bare bullet. Action buttons gained
labels — "Approve", "Resume", "Drain" — so the icons aren't doing all
the semantic work; the destructive remove action uses the softer
btn-danger-ghost variant so rows don't scream red, with the ConfirmDialog
still owning the real "are you sure". Applied cell-mono/cell-muted
utility classes so label chips and addresses share one spacing/font
grammar instead of re-declaring inline styles everywhere.

Expanded drawer: empty states for Loaded Models and Installed Backends
now render as a proper drawer-empty card (dashed border, icon, one-line
hint) instead of a plain muted string that read like broken formatting.

Tabs: three inline-styled buttons became the shared .tab class so they
inherit focus ring, hover state, and the rest of the design system —
matches the System page.

"Add more workers" toggle turned into a .nodes-add-worker dashed-border
button labelled "Register a new worker" (action voice) instead of a
chevron + muted link that operators kept mistaking for broken text.

New shared CSS primitives carry over to other pages:
.stat-grid + .stat-card, .row-chevron, .node-status, .drawer-empty,
.nodes-add-worker.

* feat(distributed): durable backend fan-out + state reconciliation

Two connected problems handled together:

1) Backend delete/install/upgrade used to silently skip non-healthy nodes,
   so a delete during an outage left a zombie on the offline node once it
   returned. The fan-out now records intent in a new pending_backend_ops
   table before attempting the NATS round-trip. Currently-healthy nodes
   get an immediate attempt; everyone else is queued. Unique index on
   (node_id, backend, op) means reissuing the same operation refreshes
   next_retry_at instead of stacking duplicates.

2) Loaded-model state could drift from reality: a worker OOM'd, got
   killed, or restarted a backend process would leave a node_models row
   claiming the model was still loaded, feeding ghost entries into the
   /api/nodes/models listing and the router's scheduling decisions.

The existing ReplicaReconciler gains two new passes that run under a
fresh KeyStateReconciler advisory lock (non-blocking, so one wedged
frontend doesn't freeze the cluster):

  - drainPendingBackendOps: retries queued ops whose next_retry_at has
    passed on currently-healthy nodes. Success deletes the row; failure
    bumps attempts and pushes next_retry_at out with exponential backoff
    (30s → 15m cap). ErrNoResponders also marks the node unhealthy.

  - probeLoadedModels: gRPC-HealthChecks addresses the DB thinks are
    loaded but hasn't seen touched in the last probeStaleAfter (2m).
    Unreachable addresses are removed from the registry. A pluggable
    ModelProber lets tests substitute a fake without standing up gRPC.

DistributedBackendManager exposes DeleteBackendDetailed so the HTTP
handler can surface per-node outcomes ("2 succeeded, 1 queued") to the
UI in a follow-up commit; the existing DeleteBackend still returns
error-only for callers that don't care about node breakdown.

Multi-frontend safety: the state pass uses advisorylock.TryWithLockCtx
on a new key so N frontends coordinate — the same pattern the health
monitor and replica reconciler already rely on. Single-node mode runs
both passes inline (adapter is nil, state drain is a no-op).

Tests cover the upsert semantics, backoff math, the probe removing an
unreachable model but keeping a reachable one, and filtering by
probeStaleAfter.

* feat(ui): show cluster distribution of models in the System page

When a frontend restarted in distributed mode, models that workers had
already loaded weren't visible until the operator clicked into each node
manually — the /api/models/capabilities endpoint only knew about
configs on the frontend's filesystem, not the registry-backed truth.

/api/models/capabilities now joins in ListAllLoadedModels() when the
registry is active, returning loaded_on[] with node id/name/state/status
for each model. Models that live in the registry but lack a local config
(the actual ghosts, not recovered from the frontend's file cache) still
surface with source="registry-only" so operators can see and persist
them; without that emission they'd be invisible to this frontend.

Manage → Models replaces the old Running/Idle pill with a distribution
cell that lists the first three nodes the model is loaded on as chips
colored by state (green loaded, blue loading, amber anything else). On
wider clusters the remaining count collapses into a +N chip with a
title-attribute breakdown. Disabled / single-node behavior unchanged.

Adopted models get an extra "Adopted" ghost-icon chip with hover copy
explaining what it means and how to make it permanent.

Distributed mode also enables a 10s auto-refresh and a "Last synced Xs
ago" indicator next to the Update button so ghost rows drop off within
one reconcile tick after their owning process dies. Non-distributed
mode is untouched — no polling, no cell-stack, same old Running/Idle.

* feat(ui): NodeDistributionChip — shared per-node attribution component

Large clusters were going to break the Manage → Backends Nodes column:
the old inline logic rendered every node as a badge and would shred the
layout at >10 workers, plus the Manage → Models distribution cell had
copy-pasted its own slightly-different version.

NodeDistributionChip handles any cluster size with two render modes:
  - small (≤3 nodes): inline chips of node names, colored by health.
  - large: a single "on N nodes · M offline · K drift" summary chip;
    clicking opens a Popover with a per-node table (name, status,
    version, digest for backends; name, status, state for models).

Drift counting mirrors the backend's summarizeNodeDrift so the UI
number matches UpgradeInfo.NodeDrift. Digests are truncated to the
docker-style 12-char form with the full value preserved in the title.

Popover is a new general-purpose primitive: fixed positioning anchored
to the trigger, flips above when there's no room below, closes on
outside-click or Escape, returns focus to the trigger. Uses .card as
its surface so theming is inherited. Also useful for a future
labels-editor popup and the user menu.

Manage.jsx drops its duplicated inline Nodes-column + loaded_on cell
and uses the shared chip with context="backends" / "models"
respectively. Delete code removes ~40 lines of ad-hoc logic.

* feat(ui): shared FilterBar across the System page tabs

The Backends gallery had a nice search + chip + toggle strip; the System
page had nothing, so the two surfaces felt like different apps. Lift the
pattern into a reusable FilterBar and wire both System tabs through it.

New component core/http/react-ui/src/components/FilterBar.jsx renders a
search input, a role="tablist" chip row (aria-selected for a11y), and
optional toggles / right slot. Chips support an optional `count` which
the System page uses to show "User 3", "Updates 1" etc.

System Models tab: search by id or backend; chips for
All/Running/Idle/Disabled/Pinned plus a conditional Distributed chip in
distributed mode. "Last synced" + Update button live in the right slot.

System Backends tab: search by name/alias/meta-backend-for; chips for
All/User/System/Meta plus conditional Updates / Offline-nodes chips
when relevant. The old ad-hoc "Updates only" toggle from the upgrade
banner folded into the Updates chip — one source of truth for that
filter. Offline chip only appears in distributed mode when at least
one backend has an unhealthy node, so the chip row stays quiet on
healthy clusters.

Filter state persists in URL query params (mq/mf/bq/bf) so deep links
and tab switches keep the operator's filter context instead of
resetting every time.

Also adds an "Adopted" distribution path: when a model in
/api/models/capabilities carries source="registry-only" (discovered on
a worker but not configured locally), the Models tab shows a ghost chip
labelled "Adopted" with hover copy explaining how to persist it — this
is what closes the loop on the ghost-model story end-to-end.
