* sglang backend: pass through thinking_budget + require_reasoning sglang's raw Engine.async_generate() API (which this backend calls directly, bypassing sglang's own OpenAI server) supports a precise, tokenizer-derived reasoning-length budget via sampling_params["custom_params"]["thinking_budget"] plus require_reasoning=True, gated behind --enable-strict-thinking. Neither was reachable through LocalAI: this backend built sampling_params only from a fixed field mapping (temperature, top_p, ...) with no custom_params key, and never passed require_reasoning to async_generate at all. - LoadModel now reads a model-level "thinking_budget" option (same mechanism as the existing tool_parser/reasoning_parser options), and _build_sampling_params adds it as custom_params.thinking_budget on every request when configured. - _new_reasoning_parser already derives, from the rendered prompt, whether the model's chat template pre-opened a reasoning block (Qwen3-style templates append <think> to the prompt instead of letting the model emit it) -- the same signal sglang's own OpenAI server computes from per-template config to decide require_reasoning. This backend has no template manager, so it now returns that signal too and _predict forwards it to async_generate(require_reasoning=...). Verified against production (NVFP4, sm_121, Qwen3.6-35B-A3B) via a raw Engine.async_generate() call bypassing this backend: 301 reasoning tokens against a 300-token budget, clean completion, ~27s. Not yet verified through this backend's own gRPC path end-to-end (no local CUDA/sglang environment available here) -- existing + new unit tests in test.py cover the pure-Python merge/passthrough logic only. Scope note: require_reasoning is derived only from the existing prompt-suffix heuristic, not sglang's full per-template _get_reasoning_from_request decision tree (minimax-m3/hunyuan special cases etc.) -- this backend has no template manager to evaluate that tree against, and the prompt-suffix check is the one heuristic already validated in this file (test_reasoning_parser_forced_when_template_prefills_think_tag).

As a model-level default it is silently dropped: a config reading "reasoning_effort: none" still produces full reasoning on every request, so the config says one thing and the model does another. That gap is expensive in practice. On a self-hosted Qwen3.6-35B-A3B the reasoning phase consumed the entire max_tokens budget before any content was produced - 90% of code completions came back empty at max_tokens=768, and the server log filled with "backend produced only reasoning, retrying". The config looked like reasoning was off the whole time. This adds "reasoning_default:off" (or ":on") on the same model-level options: mechanism as thinking_budget. A per-request value always wins; the default only fills in when the request is silent. Measured on the stack above (sglang 0.5.20, NVFP4, GB10/sm_121) after applying it: default (nothing set) -> 0 chars reasoning, 27 tokens "reasoning_effort": "none" -> 0 chars reasoning, 27 tokens metadata enable_thinking=true -> capped at the 512-token thinking_budget, 541 tokens total, finish_reason stop Tests: three cases added to backend/python/sglang/test.py covering the default, per-request override in both directions, and the unconfigured case (which must leave the template untouched). Signed-off-by: pos-ei-don <1822533+pos-ei-don@users.noreply.github.com> * sglang backend: validate thinking_budget instead of crashing LoadModel Addresses the review on this PR: - `int(thinking_budget)` raised on values like "5000.0" or "abc" and took LoadModel down. The option is now parsed by _parse_thinking_budget(): integral numbers in any spelling are accepted, anything else is ignored with a warning on stderr. - Zero and negative budgets are ignored with a warning instead of being passed to sglang, where they have no defined meaning. Turning reasoning off is what reasoning_default:off is for. - A load-time warning when thinking_budget is set but enable_strict_thinking is not in engine_args, since sglang then ignores the budget silently. - Tests for integral spellings, unset, zero, negative, non-integer and the strict-thinking warning. Signed-off-by: pos-ei-don <1822533+pos-ei-don@users.noreply.github.com> * docs(sglang): explain reasoning options Document the reasoning budget, strict-thinking requirement, and precedence of request metadata over the model-level default. Also note that the budget has to stay well below max_tokens (otherwise it never triggers and the reply can end up empty), and that POST /models/reload or a backend-only restart does not pick up changed options; LocalAI itself has to be restarted.

Keep the full LocalAI restart recommendation for changed reasoning options. Assisted-by: Codex:GPT-6 * sglang backend: only pass require_reasoning when sglang supports it Engine.async_generate() gained the require_reasoning keyword in sglang 0.5.13 and takes no **kwargs. The CPU profile builds v0.5.11 from source and the other profiles only set a >=0.5.11 floor, so passing the keyword unconditionally made every request fail with TypeError. Detect support once at import time, as the file already does for sampling_seed. enable_strict_thinking first appears in sglang 0.5.12; fix the comment.
