* docs: add 'how LocalAI works' architecture diagram Add a blueprint-style architecture diagram: clients -> small core (API, router, WebUI, agents) -> gRPC -> backend processes pulled on demand as OCI images. Place it on the overview page and replace the stale external architecture image on the reference page. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-opus-4-8 [Claude Code] Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * docs: add blueprint diagrams across feature, distributed & getting-started docs Add 24 architecture/flow/comparison diagrams (PNG + HTML source) under docs/static/images/diagrams/, wired into their docs pages, from an impact-vs-effort audit of the docs. Broaden the API surface on the overview architecture diagram (OpenAI, Anthropic, ElevenLabs, Ollama, and LocalAI's own API) and move the gRPC boundary label clear of the arrows. Pages: distributed mode (architecture, scheduling, ds4 layer-split), distributed inferencing, MLX, realtime, quantization, MCP, agents, mitm & cloud proxy, middleware, reverse-proxy TLS, VRAM, voice & face recognition, reranker, function calling, fine-tuning (recipe + jobs), diarization, audio transform, quickstart, model resolution. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-opus-4-8 [Claude Code] Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * docs: add composable-core diagram to README hero Commit the composable-core card (small core + on-demand backend tiles) alongside the other diagrams and reference it from the README hero via a repo-relative path, so it renders on GitHub. Assisted-by: Claude:claude-opus-4-8 [Claude Code] Signed-off-by: Ettore Di Giacinto <mudler@localai.io> * docs: fix composable-core connectors/badge and federated-vs-worker layout - composable-core: thicken the plug-in connectors so they read clearly, and widen the SEPARATE IMAGE badge so its text no longer overflows the box. - federated-vs-worker: shorten the WHOLE/SPLIT REQUEST pills to fit, and replace the tangled node-to-node activation arrows with a clean fan-out (request split across all sharded nodes), mirroring the federated panel.
