mudler's LocalAI [bot] 47097041ff fix(vllm): apply Options[] engine flags before engine init (#11147)
fix(vllm): apply Options[] engine flags before engine init (#11130)

CLI-style flags in a model's `options:` array (`--quantization:gptq_marlin`,
`--enable-prefix-caching`, `--kv-cache-dtype:fp8_e5m2`) were discarded: the
backend only ever read `tool_parser`/`reasoning_parser` out of Options[], and
did so *after* `AsyncLLMEngine.from_engine_args()`, where nothing it set could
still reach the engine.

Map `--` prefixed options onto the AsyncEngineArgs dataclass before the engine
is constructed. Names are normalized the way vLLM's CLI spells them
(`--enable-prefix-caching` -> `enable_prefix_caching`), values are coerced to
the target field's type (bare flag -> True for booleans), and unknown or
uncoercible flags warn and are skipped instead of failing the load, since
Options[] is a bag shared with backend-level settings. Field types come from
the annotation's base so `Literal["auto", "float16"]` (vLLM's dtype) is not
mistaken for a float.

Precedence is typed proto fields -> `options:` -> `engine_args:`. The
production engine_args defaults seeded in hooks_vllm.go therefore skip any key
the user already set as an option, otherwise the later engine_args pass would
silently override it. Parser lookups now accept both spellings, so
`--reasoning-parser:qwen3` selects LocalAI's parser as well.

The helper's tests are stdlib-only and run in the lint workflow's
dependency-light job via `make test-python-helpers`.
