Review follow-ups on the image-generation PR:
- ControlNet: resolve_controlnet accepts a bare owner/name repo without the
non-GGUF base trust gate, and _controlnet_pipe hands it straight to
from_pretrained. A malicious pickle .bin would deserialize on load, so run
the same Hugging Face malware preflight (evaluate_file_security) the chat and
export loaders use before any remote ControlNet load; local dirs are exempt.
- Dataset thumbnails: key the cache on the full filename instead of the stem so
sample.png and sample.jpg no longer collide on one .thumbs file (which could
serve or delete the wrong image); the delete cleanup globs the same key.
- Diffusion training start: mirror start_training's API-key guard so an API
client cannot start training (which frees VRAM by unloading chat) while an
inference request is streaming; it now returns 409 before any GPU is freed.
- Model picker: include the curated safetensors row keys in the recommended
roving key list so arrow-key navigation reaches those rows instead of hitting
the duplicate option-missing id.
Tests: ControlNet malware gate (remote blocked before from_pretrained, local
skipped), thumbnail same-stem cache separation, API-key diffusion-start 409
before GPU free. Full diffusion suites green.
- Unload the ACTIVE image engine (sd_cpp or diffusers) before diffusion training starts, not just the diffusers singleton
- Count metadata.jsonl captions in dataset summaries so metadata-captioned datasets are not reported as uncaptioned
- Sidecar captions now override metadata rows everywhere (grid edits win); trainer and dataset API agree
- Tag local diffusers image checkpoints with text-to-image so they appear in the Images picker
- Family LoRA targets (_FLUX_TARGETS etc) apply when the config carries the generic defaults; explicit overrides still win

* Studio diffusion (Phase 9): pre-quantized transformer loading
The Phase 8 fast transformer_quant path materialises the dense bf16 transformer on
the GPU and torchao-quantises it in place, so its load peak is ~2x GGUF's (~21 vs
13.4 GB) plus a ~12 GB download. Add a pre-quantized branch: quantise once offline
(scripts/build_prequant_checkpoint.py) and at runtime build the transformer skeleton
on the meta device (accelerate.init_empty_weights) and load_state_dict(assign=True)
the quantized weights, so the dense bf16 never touches the GPU.
Measured (B200, Z-Image fp8): full-pipeline GPU load peak 21.2 -> 14.6 GB (matching
GGUF's 13.4), on-disk 12 -> 6.28 GB, output bit-identical (LPIPS 0.0). It is the same
torchao config + min_features filter the runtime path uses, applied ahead of time.
New core/inference/diffusion_prequant.py (resolve_prequant_source +
load_prequantized_transformer, best-effort, lazy imports). diffusion.py
_load_dense_quant_pipeline tries the pre-quant source first and falls back to the
dense materialise+quantise path, then to GGUF, so the default is unchanged.
DiffusionLoadRequest gains transformer_prequant_path; DiffusionFamily gains an empty
prequant_repos map for hosted checkpoints (hosting deferred). Hermetic CPU tests for
the resolver, the meta-init+assign loader, and the backend branch selection +
fallbacks; GPU verification via scripts/verify_prequant_backend.py.

* Studio diffusion (Phase 10): attention-backend selection
Add a selectable attention kernel via the diffusers set_attention_backend
dispatcher. Attention is memory-bandwidth bound, so a better kernel is an
end-to-end win orthogonal to the linear-weight quantisation (it speeds the QK/PV
matmuls torchao never touches) and composes with torch.compile.
auto picks the best exact backend for the device: cuDNN fused attention
(_native_cudnn) on NVIDIA when a speed profile is active, measured ~1.18x
end-to-end on a B200 (Z-Image 1024px/8 steps) with LPIPS ~0.004 vs the default
(below the compile/quant noise floor); native SDPA elsewhere and when speed=off
(so off stays bit-identical). Explicit native/cudnn/flash/flash3/flash4/sage/
xformers/aiter are honored, and an unavailable kernel falls back to the default
rather than failing the load.
New core/inference/diffusion_attention.py (normalize + per-device select + apply,
best-effort, lazy imports). Set on pipe.transformer BEFORE compile in load_pipeline;
attention_backend threads through begin_load / load_pipeline / status like the other
load knobs. New request field attention_backend + status field. Hermetic CPU tests
for normalize / select policy / apply fallback, plus route threading + 422. Measured
via scripts/perf_levers_probe.py.

* Studio diffusion (Phase 11): prefer int8 on consumer GPUs in the auto ladder
Consumer / workstation GPUs halve fp8 (and fp16/bf16) FP32-accumulate tensor-core
throughput, while int8 runs at full rate (int32 accumulate is not nerfed). Public
benchmarks (SDNQ across RTX 3090/4090/5090, AMD, Intel) confirm int8 via torch._int_mm
is as fast or faster than fp8 on every consumer part, and the only path on pre-Ada
consumer cards without fp8 tensor cores. So when transformer_quant=auto, reorder the
arch tier to put int8 first on a consumer/workstation GPU (detected by the existing
_is_consumer_gpu name heuristic), while data-center HBM parts keep fp8 first.
Pure ladder reorder via _prefer_consumer_scheme; no new flags. Verified non-regression
on a B200 (still picks fp8). Hermetic tests for consumer Blackwell/Ada/workstation
(-> int8) and data-center Ada/Hopper/Blackwell (-> fp8).
* Studio diffusion (Phase 12): First-Block-Cache step caching for many-step DiT
Add opt-in step caching (First-Block-Cache) for the diffusion transformer. Across
denoise steps a DiT's output settles, so once the first block's residual barely
changes the remaining blocks are skipped and their cached output reused. diffusers
ships it natively (FirstBlockCacheConfig + transformer.enable_cache, with the
standalone apply_first_block_cache hook as a fallback).
Measured on Flux.1-dev (28 steps, 1024px): ~1.4x on top of torch.compile (2.83 ->
2.03s) at LPIPS ~0.08 vs the no-cache output, well inside the quality bar.
OFF by default and a per-load opt-in: the win scales with step count, so it is for
many-step models (Flux / Qwen-Image) and pointless for few-step distilled models
(e.g. Z-Image-Turbo at ~8 steps), where a single skipped step is a large fraction
of the trajectory. It composes with regional compile only with fullgraph=False (the
cache's per-step decision is a torch.compiler.disable graph break), which the speed
layer now switches to automatically when a cache is engaged. Best-effort: a model
whose block signature the hook does not recognise is caught and the load proceeds
uncached.
- new core/inference/diffusion_cache.py: normalize_transformer_cache + apply_step_cache
(enable_cache / apply_first_block_cache fallback; threshold auto-raised for a
quantised transformer per ParaAttention's fp8 guidance; lazy diffusers import).
- diffusion_speed.py: apply_speed_optims takes cache_active; compile drops fullgraph
when a cache is engaged.
- diffusion.py: apply_step_cache before compile; thread transformer_cache /
transformer_cache_threshold through begin_load -> load_pipeline and report the
engaged mode in status().
- models/inference.py + routes/inference.py: transformer_cache (off | fbcache) and
transformer_cache_threshold request fields, engaged mode in the status response.
- hermetic tests for normalisation, the enable_cache / hook-fallback paths, threshold
selection, and best-effort failure handling, plus route threading + validation.
- scripts/fbcache_flux_probe.py: the Flux validation probe (latency / speedup / VRAM /
LPIPS vs the compiled no-cache baseline).

* Studio diffusion (Phase 14): fix int8 dense quant on Flux / Qwen (skip M=1 modulation linears)
The opt-in dense int8 transformer path crashed on Flux.1 and Qwen-Image with
'torch._int_mm: self.size(0) needs to be greater than 16, but got 1'. int8 dynamic quant
goes through torch._int_mm, which requires the activation row count M > 16. A DiT's AdaLN
modulation projections (Flux norm1.linear 3072->18432, Qwen img_mod.1 / txt_mod.1, Flux.2
*_modulation.linear) and its timestep / guidance / pooled-text conditioning embedders are
computed once from the [batch, dim] conditioning vector (M = batch = 1), not per token, so
they hit _int_mm at M=1 and crash. Their feature dims are large, so the existing
min_features filter did not exclude them.
Fix: the int8 filter now also skips any Linear whose fully-qualified name matches a
modulation / conditioning-embedder token (norm, _mod, modulation, timestep_embed,
guidance_embed, time_text_embed, pooled). These layers run at M=1 once per block and are a
negligible share of the FLOPs, so int8 keeps the full speedup on the attention / FFN layers
(M = sequence length). fp8 / nvfp4 / mxfp8 use scaled_mm, which has no M>16 limit and
quantises these layers fine, so the exclusion is int8-only. Sequence embedders
(context_embedder / x_embedder / txt_in, M = seq) are deliberately not excluded -- note
'context_embedder' contains the substring 'text_embed', which is why the token is the
specific 'time_text_embed', not 'text_embed'.
Measured on a B200 (1024px, transformer_quant=int8 + speed=default), int8 now runs on every
supported model and is the fastest dense path on Flux/Qwen (int8 runs full-rate vs fp8's
FP32-accumulate): FLUX.1-dev 9.62s eager -> 1.98s (4.86x, vs fp8 2.15s), Qwen-Image -> 1.87s
(5.57x, vs fp8 2.09s), FLUX.1-schnell -> 0.41s (3.59x). Z-Image and Flux.2-klein (already
working) are unchanged.
- diffusion_transformer_quant.py: add _INT8_EXCLUDE_NAME_TOKENS; make_filter_fn takes
exclude_name_tokens; quantize_transformer passes it for int8 only.
- hermetic test that the int8 filter excludes the modulation / embedder linears (and keeps
attention / FFN / sequence-embedder linears), while fp8 keeps them.
- scripts/int8_linear_probe.py: the meta-device probe used to enumerate each transformer's
Linear layers and derive the exclusion list.

* Studio diffusion (Phase 15): build int8 pre-quantized checkpoints (skip M=1 modulation linears)
The prequant-checkpoint builder applied the dense quant filter without the int8-only
M=1 modulation / conditioning-embedder exclusion the runtime path uses, so a built int8
checkpoint baked those projections as int8 and crashed (torch._int_mm needs M>16) at the
first denoise step on Flux / Qwen. Factor the scheme->exclusion decision into a shared
exclude_tokens_for_scheme() used by both the runtime quantise path and the offline builder
so they can never drift, and apply it in build_prequant_checkpoint.py. int8 prequant now
produces a working checkpoint on every supported model, giving int8 (the consumer-preferred
scheme) the same ~2x load-VRAM and download reduction fp8 already had.

* Studio diffusion (Phase 16): route no-GPU loads to the native sd.cpp engine
When no CUDA/ROCm/XPU GPU is available, route diffusion load/generate to the
native stable-diffusion.cpp engine instead of diffusers, with diffusers as the
guaranteed fallback. On CPU sd.cpp is 1.4-2.8x faster and uses 1.5-2.2x less RAM.
- diffusion_engine_router: centralised engine selection (built on the existing
select_diffusion_engine), env opt-outs, MPS gating, recorded fallback reason.
- sd_cpp_backend (SdCppDiffusionBackend): the diffusers backend method surface
backed by sd-cli, with lazy binary install, registry-driven asset fetch,
step-progress parsing, and cancellation.
- diffusion_families: per-family single-file VAE + text-encoder asset mapping.
- sd_cpp_engine: cancellation support (process-group kill + SdCppCancelled).
- routes/inference + gpu_arbiter: drive the active engine via the router; the
API now reports the active engine and any fallback reason.
- tests for the backend, router, route selection, and cancellation.

* Phase 16 review fixes: engine-switch unload, sd.cpp error mapping, per-image seeds, Qwen sampler
Address review feedback on #6724:
- engine router: unload the engine being deactivated on a switch, so the old
model is not left resident-but-unreachable (the evictor only targets the active
engine).
- generate route: sd.cpp execution errors (nonzero exit / timeout / missing
output) now map to 500, not 409 (which only means not-loaded / cancelled).
- native batch: return per-image seeds and persist the actual seed for each image
so every batch image is reproducible.
- Qwen-Image native path: apply --sampling-method euler --flow-shift 3 per the
stable-diffusion.cpp docs; other families keep sd-cli defaults.
- honor speed_mode (native --diffusion-fa) and, off-CPU, memory_mode/cpu_offload
offload flags on the native load instead of hardcoding them off.
- fail the load when the sd-cli binary is present but not runnable (version()
now returns None on exec error / nonzero exit).
- size estimate: only treat the transformer asset as a possible local path.

* Studio diffusion (Phase 9): gate request-supplied local prequant paths behind operator opt-in
load_prequantized_transformer ends in torch.load(weights_only=False), which executes
arbitrary code from the pickle. The transformer_prequant_path load-request field reached
that unpickle for any local file an authenticated caller named, so a request could trigger
remote code execution. Refuse the source.kind=='path' branch unless the operator sets
UNSLOTH_ALLOW_LOCAL_PREQUANT_PATH=1; the first-party hosted-repo checkpoint stays trusted
and unaffected. Document the requirement on the API field and add gate tests.
* [pre-commit.ci] auto fixes from pre-commit.com hooks
for more information, see https://pre-commit.ci
* Studio diffusion (Phase 10): reset the global attention backend on native, gate arch-specific kernels, accept sdpa
- apply_attention_backend now restores the native default when no backend is requested or a
kernel fails. diffusers keeps a process-wide active attention backend that
set_attention_backend updates, and a fresh transformer's processors follow it, so a load
that wanted native could silently inherit a backend (e.g. cuDNN) an earlier speed-profile
load pinned, breaking the bit-identical/off guarantee.
- select_attention_backend drops flash3/flash4 up front when the CUDA capability is below
Hopper/Blackwell. diffusers only checks the kernels package at set time, so an explicit
request on the wrong card set fine then crashed mid-generation; it now falls back to native.
- Add the sdpa alias to the attention_backend Literal so an API request with sdpa (already a
valid alias of native) is accepted instead of 422-rejected by Pydantic.
- Drop the dead replace('-','_') normalization (no alias uses dashes/underscores).
- perf_levers_probe.py output dir is now relative to the script, not a hardcoded path.
* [pre-commit.ci] auto fixes from pre-commit.com hooks
for more information, see https://pre-commit.ci
* Studio diffusion (Phase 12): only engage FBCache on context-aware transformers; quantized threshold for GGUF
- apply_step_cache now engages only via the transformer's native enable_cache (the diffusers
CacheMixin path), which exists exactly when the pipeline wraps the transformer call in a
cache_context. The standalone apply_first_block_cache fallback installed on non-CacheMixin
transformers too (e.g. Z-Image), whose pipeline opens no cache_context, so the load reported
transformer_cache=fbcache and then the first generation crashed inside the hook. Such a model
now runs uncached per the best-effort contract.
- GGUF transformers are quantized (the default Studio load path), so they now use the higher
quantized FBCache threshold when the caller leaves it unset, instead of the dense default
that could keep the cache from triggering.
- fbcache_flux_probe.py: compile cached runs with fullgraph=False (FBCache is a graph break, so
fullgraph=True failed warmup and silently measured an eager cached run); output dir is now
relative to the script, not a hardcoded path.
* Studio diffusion (Phase 11): keep professional RTX cards on the fp8 ladder
_is_consumer_gpu treated professional parts (RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell, RTX 6000 Ada) as
consumer because their names carry no datacenter token, so the auto ladder moved int8 ahead
of fp8 and the fp8 path chose fast accumulate for them. The rest of the backend already
classifies these as datacenter/professional (llama_cpp.py _DATACENTER_GPU_RE), so detect the
same RTX PRO 6000 / RTX 6000 Ada markers here and keep fp8 first with precise accumulate.
Also fix the consumer-Blackwell test to use compute capability (10, 0) instead of (12, 0).
* Studio diffusion (Phase 8): tolerate missing torch.float8_e4m3fn in the mxfp8 config
Accessing torch.float8_e4m3fn raises AttributeError on a torch build without it (not just
TypeError on older torchao), which would break the mxfp8 config helper instead of falling
back to the default. Catch both so the fallback is robust.
quant_probe.py: same AttributeError fallback; run LPIPS on CPU so the scorer never holds
CUDA memory during the per-row VRAM probe; output dir relative to the script.
* Studio diffusion (Phase 7): robust backend-flag snapshot/restore and restore on failed speeded load
- snapshot_backend_flags reads each flag defensively (getattr + hasattr), so a build/platform
missing one (no cuda.matmul on CPU/MPS) still captures the rest instead of skipping the
whole snapshot. restore_backend_flags restores each flag independently so one failure can't
leave the others leaked process-wide.
- load_pipeline restores the flags (and clears the GPU cache) when the build fails after
apply_speed_optims mutated the process-wide flags but before _state captured them for unload
to restore -- otherwise a failed default/max load left cudnn.benchmark/TF32 on and
contaminated later off generations.
* [pre-commit.ci] auto fixes from pre-commit.com hooks
for more information, see https://pre-commit.ci
* Studio diffusion (Phase 4): enforce the sd-cli timeout while reading output
Iterating proc.stdout directly blocks until the stream closes, so a sd-cli that hangs
without producing output (or without closing stdout) would never reach proc.wait and the
wall-clock timeout was silently bypassed. Drain stdout on a daemon thread and wait on the
PROCESS, so the main thread always enforces the timeout and kills a hung process (which
closes the pipe and ends the reader). Add a test that times out even when stdout blocks,
and make the no-binary test hermetic so a host-installed sd-cli can't leak in.
* Studio diffusion (Phase 14): guard the int8 exclusion filter against a None fqn
The filter callback can be invoked without a module name, so fqn.lower() would raise
AttributeError on None. Fall back to an empty name (nothing matches the exclusion tokens,
so the linear is kept) instead of crashing the quantise pass.
* Studio diffusion (Phase 16) review fixes: native engine robustness
- sd_cpp_backend: stop truncating explicit seeds to 53 bits (mask to int64);
a large requested seed was silently collapsed (2**53 -> 0) and distinct seeds
aliased to the same image. Random seeds stay 53-bit (JS-safe).
- sd_cpp_backend: sanitize empty/whitespace hf_token to None so HfApi/hf_hub
fall back to anonymous instead of failing auth on a blank token.
- sd_cpp_backend: a superseding load now cancels the in-flight generation, so the
old sd-cli can no longer return/persist an image from the previous model.
- diffusion_engine_router: run the previous engine's unload() OUTSIDE the lock so a
slow 10+ GB free / CUDA sync does not block engine selection.
- diffusion_engine_router: probe sd-cli runnability (version()) before committing to
native, so a present-but-unrunnable binary falls back to diffusers at selection.
- diffusion_device: resolve a torch-free CPU target when torch is unavailable, so a
CPU-only install can still reach the native sd.cpp engine instead of failing load.
- tests updated for the runnability probe + a not-runnable fallback case.
* Studio diffusion (Phase 9) review fixes: prequant safety + validation
- SECURITY: a request-supplied local pre-quant path is now unpickled only when it
resolves inside an operator-configured ALLOWLIST of directories
(UNSLOTH_ALLOW_LOCAL_PREQUANT_PATH = dir[:dir...]). The previous boolean opt-in,
once enabled for one trusted checkpoint, allowed torch.load(weights_only=False) on
any path a load request named (arbitrary code execution). realpath() blocks symlink
escapes; a bare on/off toggle is no longer a wildcard.
- Validate the checkpoint's min_features against the runtime Linear filter, so a
checkpoint that quantised a different layer set is rejected instead of silently
loading a model that mismatches the dense path while reporting the same scheme.
- Tolerant base_model_id compare (exact or same final path/repo segment), so a local
path or fork of the canonical base is accepted instead of falling back to dense.
- _has_meta_tensors uses any(chain(...)) (no intermediate lists).
- prequant verify/probe scripts use repo-relative paths (+ env overrides), not the
author's absolute /mnt paths.
- tests: allowlist-dir opt-in, outside-allowlist refusal, min_features mismatch, fork tail.
* [pre-commit.ci] auto fixes from pre-commit.com hooks
for more information, see https://pre-commit.ci
* Studio diffusion (Phase 7) review fixes: offload fallback + bench scripts
- diffusion_memory: when group offload is unavailable and the plan falls back to
whole-module offload, enable VAE tiling (the group plan left it off, but the fallback
is the low-VRAM path where the decode spike can OOM). Covers both the group and
sequential fallback branches.
- perf_verify: include the balanced-vs-off PSNR in the pass/fail condition, so a
balanced bit-identity regression actually fails the check instead of exiting 0.
- compare_engines: --vae/--llm default to None (were author-absolute /mnt paths), and
the load-progress poll has a 30 min deadline instead of looping forever on a hang.
- test for the group->model fallback enabling VAE tiling.
* Studio diffusion (Phase 8) review fixes: quant compile + nvfp4 path
- diffusion: a torchao-quantized transformer is committed only compiled. A dense model
resolves to speed_mode=off, which would run the quant eager (~30x slower than the GGUF
it replaced), so when transformer_quant engaged and speed resolved to off, promote to
default (regional compile); warn loudly if compile still does not engage.
- diffusion_transformer_quant: build the nvfp4 config with use_triton_kernel=False so the
CUTLASS FP4 path is used (torchao defaults to the Triton kernel, which needs MSLK);
otherwise the smoke probe fails on CUTLASS-only Blackwell and silently drops to GGUF.
- nvfp4_probe: repo-relative output dir + --out-dir (was an author-absolute /mnt path).
- test asserts the eager-quant -> default-compile promotion.
* Studio diffusion (Phase 10) review fixes: attention gating + probe isolation
- diffusion_attention: gate the auto cuDNN-attention upgrade on SM80+; on pre-Ampere
NVIDIA (T4/V100) cuDNN fused SDPA is accepted at set time but fails at first generation,
so auto now stays on native SDPA there.
- diffusion_attention: _active_attention_backend handles get_active_backend() returning an
enum/None (not a tuple); the old unpack always raised and was swallowed, so
the native-restore short-circuit never fired.
- perf_levers_probe: free the resident pipe on a skipped (attn/fbcache) variant; run LPIPS
on CPU so it isn't charged to every variant's peak VRAM; reset force_fuse_int_mm_with_mul
so the inductor_flags variant doesn't leak into later compiled rows.
- tests for the SM80 cuDNN gate.

* Studio diffusion (Phase 4) review fixes: sd.cpp installer + engine hardening
- install_sd_cpp_prebuilt: download the release archive with urlopen + an explicit
timeout + copyfileobj (urlretrieve has no timeout and hangs on a stalled socket);
extract through a per-member containment check (Zip-Slip guard); expanduser the
--install-dir so a tilde path is not taken literally; and on Windows CUDA also fetch
the separately-published cudart runtime DLL archive so sd-cli.exe can start.
- sd_cpp_engine: find_sd_cpp_binary honors UNSLOTH_STUDIO_HOME / STUDIO_HOME like the
installer, so a custom-root install is discovered without UNSLOTH_SD_CPP_PATH; start
sd-cli with the parent-death child_popen_kwargs so it is not orphaned on a backend
crash; reap the SIGKILLed child (proc.wait) so a cancel/timeout does not leave a zombie.
- tests: Zip-Slip rejection, normal extraction, studio-home discovery.

* Studio diffusion (Phase 4) review round 2: collect sd-cli batch outputs
Codex review: when batch_count > 1, stable-diffusion.cpp's save_results() writes
the numbered files <stem>_<idx><suffix> (base_0.png, base_1.png, ...) instead of
the literal --output path. SdCppEngine.generate checked only the literal path, so
a batch generation would exit 0 and then raise 'no image' (or return a stale
file). generate now returns the literal path when present and otherwise falls
back to the numbered siblings; single-image behavior is unchanged.
Test: a fake sd-cli that writes img_0.png/img_1.png (not img.png) is collected
without error.
* Studio diffusion (Phase 6) review round 2: img2img source dims + upscale repeats
Codex review on the native engine arg builder:
- build_sd_cpp_command emitted --width/--height unconditionally, so an
img2img/inpaint/edit run that left dims unset forced a 1024x1024 resize/crop of
the input. width/height are now Optional (None = unset): an image-conditioned
run (init_img or ref_images) with unset dims omits the flags so sd.cpp derives
the size from the input image (set_width_and_height_if_unset); a plain txt2img
run with unset dims keeps the prior 1024x1024 default; explicit dims are always
honored. width/height are read only by the builder, so the type change is local.
- build_sd_cpp_upscale_command used a truthiness guard (params.repeats and ...)
that silently swallowed repeats=0 into sd-cli's default of one pass, turning an
explicit no-op into a real upscale. It now rejects repeats < 1 with ValueError
and emits the flag for any explicit value != 1.
Tests: img2img unset dims omit width/height (init_img and ref_images), explicit
dims emitted, txt2img keeps 1024; upscale rejects repeats=0 and omits the flag at
the default. (Two pre-existing binary-discovery tests fail only because a real
sd-cli is installed in this dev environment; unrelated to this change.)
* Studio diffusion (Phase 9) review round 2: correct prequant allowlist doc
Codex review: the transformer_prequant_path field description still told operators
to enable local checkpoints with UNSLOTH_ALLOW_LOCAL_PREQUANT_PATH=1, but the
prior security fix made that variable a directory allowlist -- _allowed_prequant_roots
deliberately drops bare on/off toggle tokens (1/true/yes/...). An operator
following the documented =1 would have every transformer_prequant_path request
silently refused. The description now states it must name one or more allowlisted
directories and that a bare on/off value is not accepted.
Test: asserts the field help references UNSLOTH_ALLOW_LOCAL_PREQUANT_PATH, does
not say =1, and describes an allowlist/directory (guards against doc drift).
* Studio diffusion (Phase 10) review round 2: cudnn/flash3 gating + registry reset
Codex review on attention-backend selection:
- Explicit attention_backend=cudnn skipped the SM80 gate that auto applies, so on
pre-Ampere NVIDIA (T4 SM75 / V100 SM70) it set fine then crashed at the first
generation with no fallback. select_attention_backend now applies
_cudnn_attention_supported() to an explicit cuDNN request too.
- flash3 used a minimum-only capability gate (>= SM90), so an explicit flash3 on a
Blackwell B200 (SM100) passed and then failed at generation -- FlashAttention 3
is a Hopper-SM90 rewrite with no Blackwell kernel. The arch gate is now a
(min, max-exclusive) range: flash3 is SM9x-only, flash4 stays SM100+.
- apply_attention_backend's success path left diffusers' process-wide active
backend pinned to the kernel it set; a later component whose processors are
unconfigured (backend None) would inherit it. It now resets the global registry
to native after a successful per-transformer set (the transformer keeps its own
backend), best-effort. Also fixed _active_attention_backend: get_active_backend()
returns a (name, fn) tuple, so the prior code stringified the tuple and never
matched a name, defeating the native-restore short-circuit.
Tests: explicit cudnn dropped below SM80; flash3 dropped on SM100 and allowed on
SM90; global registry reset after a successful set; _active_attention_backend
reads the tuple return.
* Studio diffusion (Phase 11) review round 2: keep GH200/B300 on the fp8 ladder
Codex review: _DATACENTER_GPU_TOKENS omitted GH200 (Grace-Hopper) and B300
(Blackwell Ultra), though it has the distinct GB200/GB300 superchip tokens. So
_is_consumer_gpu returned True for 'NVIDIA GH200 480GB' / 'NVIDIA B300', and the
auto ladder moved int8 ahead of fp8 on those data-center parts -- contradicting
llama_cpp.py's datacenter regex, which lists both. Added GH200 and B300 so they
are treated as data-center class and keep the intended fp8-first behavior.
Test: extends the datacenter parametrize with 'NVIDIA B300' and
'NVIDIA GH200 480GB' (now _is_consumer_gpu False).
* Studio diffusion (Phase 14) review round 2: apply int8 M=1 exclusion in the builder
Codex review: the M=1 modulation/embedder exclusion was wired only into the dense
runtime quantiser; the offline builder scripts/build_prequant_checkpoint.py called
make_filter_fn(min_features) with no exclusion. So an int8 prequant checkpoint
quantised the AdaLN modulation and conditioning-embedder linears, and loading it
via transformer_prequant_path (the load path only loads already-quantised tensors,
it can't re-skip them) reintroduced the torch._int_mm M=1 crash this phase fixes
for the runtime path.
Extracted int8_exclude_name_tokens(scheme) as the single source of truth (int8 ->
the M=1 exclusion, every other scheme -> none) and use it in both the runtime
quantiser and the builder, so a prequant artifact's quantised-layer set always
matches the runtime. fp8/fp4/mx artifacts are byte-identical (empty exclusion).
Test: int8_exclude_name_tokens returns the exclusion for int8 and () for
fp8/nvfp4/mxfp8.

* Studio diffusion (Phase 16) review round 2: native CPU arbiter, status offload, load race
Codex review on the native-engine routing:
- The /images/load route took the GPU arbiter (acquire_for(DIFFUSION) -> evict chat)
unconditionally after engine selection. A native sd.cpp load on a pure-CPU host
never touches the GPU, so that needlessly tore down the resident chat model. The
handoff is now gated: diffusers always takes it, a force-native sd.cpp load on a
CUDA/XPU/MPS box still takes it, but a native sd.cpp load on a CPU host skips it.
- sd_cpp status() hardcoded offload_policy 'none' / cpu_offload False even when
_run_load computed real offload flags (balanced/low_vram/cpu_offload off-CPU), so
the setting was unverifiable. status now derives them from state.offload_flags
(still 'none' on CPU, where the flags are empty).
- _run_load committed the new state without cancelling/waiting on a generation that
started during the (slow) asset download, so a stale sd-cli run against the OLD
model could finish afterward and persist an image from the previous model once the
new load reported ready. The commit now signals the in-flight cancel and waits on
_generate_lock before swapping _state (taken only at commit, so the download never
serialises against generation), mirroring the diffusers load path.
Tests: CPU native load skips the arbiter while a GPU native load takes it; status
reports offload active when flags are set; _run_load cancels and waits for an
in-flight generation before committing.
* Studio diffusion (Phase 14) review round 2: align helper name with the stack
Rename the int8 exclusion helper to exclude_tokens_for_scheme, matching the
identical helper already present higher in the diffusion stack (Phase 16). The
helper definition, the runtime quantiser call, and the offline builder are now
byte-identical to that version, so the two branches no longer introduce a
divergent name for the same single-source-of-truth and the stack merges without
a conflict on this fix. No behavior change.

* Studio diffusion: eager patches + torch.compile cache speed phase
Adds the opt-in speed path for the GGUF diffusion transformer behind a
selectable speed mode (default off, so output is unchanged until a profile
is chosen):
- diffusion_eager_patches.py: shared eager fast-paths (channels_last,
attention/backend selection, fused norms and QKV) installed at load and
rolled back on unload or failed load.
- diffusion_compile_cache.py / diffusion_gguf_compile.py: a persistent
torch.compile cache and the GGUF-transformer compile wiring.
- diffusion_arch_patches.py: architecture-specific patches.
- diffusion_patch_backend.py: shared install/restore plumbing.
- diffusion_speed.py: speed-profile planning.
Tests for each module plus the benchmarking and probe scripts used to
measure speed, memory, and accuracy of the path.
* Studio diffusion: image workflows (safetensors, image-conditioned, editing) + Images UI
Backend:
- Load non-GGUF safetensors models: full bnb-4bit pipelines and single-file
fp8 transformers, gated to the unsloth org plus a curated allowlist.
- Image-conditioned workflows built with Pipeline.from_pipe so they reuse the
loaded transformer/VAE/text-encoder with no extra VRAM: img2img, inpaint,
outpaint, and a hires-fix upscale pass.
- Instruction editing as its own family kind (Qwen-Image-Edit-2511,
FLUX.1-Kontext-dev) and FLUX.2-klein reference conditioning (single and
multi-reference) plus klein inpaint.
- Auto-resize odd-sized inputs to a multiple of 16 (and resize the matched
mask) so img2img/inpaint/edit no longer reject non-/16 uploads. Bound the
decoded image size and cap upscale output to avoid OOM on large inputs.
- Fixes: from_pipe defaulting to a float32 recast that crashed torchao
quantized transformers; image-conditioned calls forcing the slider size
onto the input image. Native sd.cpp engine rejects image-conditioned and
reference requests it cannot serve.
Frontend:
- Redesigned Images page with capability-gated workflow tabs (Create,
Transform, Inpaint, Extend, Upscale, Reference, Edit), a brush mask editor,
client-side outpaint, and a multi-reference picker.
- Advanced options moved to a right-docked panel mirroring Chat: closed by
default, toggled by a single fixed top-bar button that stays in place.
sd.cpp installer: pin the release, verify each download's sha256, add a
download timeout, and make the source repo configurable for a future mirror.
* [pre-commit.ci] auto fixes from pre-commit.com hooks
for more information, see https://pre-commit.ci
* Studio Images: correct the Advanced panel comment (closed by default, fixed toggle)
* Studio diffusion: LoRA adapters for the Images workflow
Add community LoRA support across both diffusion backends, the single
biggest step toward broad image-workflow coverage.
Backend
- New shared module core/inference/diffusion_lora.py: adapter discovery
(local scan + curated catalog + owner/name[:file] Hub refs), download
via hf_hub_download_with_xet_fallback, alias sanitization, native
managed-dir materialization with collision-broken aliases, prompt-tag
injection (deduped against user-typed tags), and a supports_lora gate.
- Native sd-cli: resolve + materialize selected LoRAs into a per-run
managed dir, inject <lora:ALIAS:w> tags, pass --lora-model-dir with
--lora-apply-mode auto. The arg builder already emitted these flags.
- Diffusers: non-fused load_lora_weights + set_adapters manager, tracked
on the pipe so an unchanged selection is a no-op and a model swap
resets; cleared on unload. Never fuses (breaks quantized transformers
and blocks live weight tweaks).
- Gated off where unsupported: torchao fp8/int8 dense, GGUF-via-diffusers,
and native Qwen-Image (no LoRA name-conversion branch upstream).
- Request contract: optional loras on DiffusionGenerateRequest; empty or
omitted is identical to today. supports_lora surfaced in status; chosen
LoRAs persisted in gallery recipe metadata.
- New GET /api/models/diffusion-loras for the picker (family-filtered).
Frontend
- Repeatable multi-LoRA picker (adapter select + weight slider 0..2 +
remove), gated by the loaded model's supports_lora and family, max 8.
Tests
- New test_diffusion_lora.py (14): helpers, request validation, native
tag/dir wiring, diffusers set_adapters manager, supports_lora matrix.
* [pre-commit.ci] auto fixes from pre-commit.com hooks
for more information, see https://pre-commit.ci
* Studio diffusion: ControlNet for the Images workflow (diffusers)
Add ControlNet conditioning, the #2 most-used diffusion workflow after
LoRA, on the diffusers backend for the families with ControlNet pipelines
(FLUX.1 and Qwen-Image), with Union models as the default picks.
Backend
- New core/inference/diffusion_controlnet.py: family-gated discovery
(curated Union models + local dirs + bare owner/name repos), resolution
to a loadable repo/dir, control-image preprocessing (passthrough +
a dependency-free canny edge map), and a supports_controlnet gate.
- diffusion.py: a ControlNet manager parallel to the LoRA one. Loads the
(small) ControlNet model once via from_pretrained (cached by id) and
builds the family's ControlNet pipeline via Pipeline.from_pipe(base,
controlnet=model), reusing the resident base modules at their loaded
dtype (no reload, no recast). Passes the control image + conditioning
scale + guidance start/end at generate time; cleared on unload.
- Families: FLUX.1 -> FluxControlNetPipeline/Model, Qwen-Image ->
QwenImageControlNetPipeline/Model. Others declare none (gated off).
- Gated off for the native engine, GGUF-via-diffusers, and torchao
fp8/int8 dense (same rule as LoRA). v1 conditions txt2img only.
- Request contract: optional controlnet on DiffusionGenerateRequest;
supports_controlnet in status; the choice persisted in gallery meta.
- New GET /api/models/diffusion-controlnets for the picker.
Frontend
- A ControlNet control in the Images rail (model select + control-image
upload + control-type select + strength slider), gated by the loaded
model's supports_controlnet + family, shown for text-to-image.
Tests
- New test_diffusion_controlnet.py (10): discovery/resolve/preprocess/gate
helpers, request validation, family wiring, and the diffusers pipe
manager (loads once, caches, from_pipe with controlnet, rejects
unsupported families).
* [pre-commit.ci] auto fixes from pre-commit.com hooks
for more information, see https://pre-commit.ci
* Studio ControlNet: show the picker on the Create tab (workflow id is 'create', not 'txt2img')
The ControlNet control gated on workflow === 'txt2img', but the Images workflow tab ids are create/transform/inpaint/extend/upscale/reference/edit -- there is no 'txt2img'. So the picker never rendered even with a ControlNet-capable model loaded. Gate on 'create' (the text-to-image tab) for both the picker and the request wiring. Found via a live Playwright capture of the running Studio.
* Studio: do not force diffusers pipelines cross-tagged gguf into the GGUF variant expander
Some diffusers image repos (e.g. unsloth/Qwen-Image-2512-unsloth-bnb-4bit) carry a
stray "gguf" tag on the Hub but ship no .gguf files. The model search classified
them as GGUF from the bare tag, so the picker rendered the GGUF variant expander,
which then dead-ended at "No GGUF variants found." Trust the bare gguf tag only when
the repo is not a diffusers pipeline; the -GGUF name suffix and real gguf metadata
(populated via expand=gguf) remain authoritative, so genuine GGUF repos are unaffected.
* Studio Images: load non-curated unsloth/on-device diffusers repos instead of no-op
handleModelSelect only loaded curated safetensors ids and GGUF variant picks; any other
non-GGUF pick (an on-device diffusers folder, or a future unsloth diffusers image repo
surfaced by search) silently did nothing. Treat such a pick as a full diffusers pipeline
load when the id is unsloth-hosted or on-device (the backend infers the family + base repo
and gates loads to unsloth/* or local paths), and show a clear message otherwise instead
of silently ignoring the click. Curated and GGUF paths are unchanged.
* Studio Images: keep curated safetensors models in Recommended after download
The curated bnb-4bit / fp8 diffusion rows were filtered out of the Images picker's
Recommended list once cached (curatedSafetensorsRows dropped anything in downloadedSet),
so they vanished from the picker after the first load and could only be found by typing an
exact search. The row already renders a downloaded badge, matching how GGUF Recommended
rows stay visible when cached. Drop the exclusion so the curated safetensors always list.
* Studio diffusion LoRA: sanitize dots out of adapter aliases
The LoRA alias is used as the diffusers PEFT adapter name, and PEFT rejects names
containing "." (module name can't contain "."). sanitize_alias kept dots, so a LoRA whose
filename carries a version tag (e.g. Qwen-Image-2512-Lightning-8steps-V1.0-bf16) failed to
apply with a 400. Replace dots too; the alias stays a valid native <lora:NAME:w> filename
stem. Adds regression coverage for internal dots.
* Studio Images: clarify the GGUF transformer-quant Advanced control
Renamed the confusing "Transformer quant / GGUF default" control to "GGUF speed mode"
with an "Off (run the GGUF)" default, and reworded the hint to state plainly that FP8/INT8/
FP4 load the FULL base model (larger download + more VRAM) rather than re-packing the GGUF,
falling back to the GGUF if it can't fit. Behavior unchanged; labels/hint only.
* Studio Images: list on-device unsloth diffusion models in the picker
The Images picker's On Device tab hid every non-GGUF cached repo whenever a
task filter was active, so downloaded unsloth diffusion pipelines (bnb-4bit
and FP8 safetensors) never showed up there. List cached repos that pass the
task gate, limited under a filter to unsloth-hosted ones so base repos (which
fail the diffusion load trust gate) don't appear only to dead-end on click.
Chat behavior is unchanged: the task gate still drops image repos there.
* Studio: hide single-file image checkpoints from the chat model picker
The chat picker treats a cached repo as an image model, and hides it, only
when it ships a diffusers model_index.json. Single-file, ComfyUI, and
ControlNet image checkpoints (an FP8 Qwen-Image, a z-image safetensors, a
Qwen-Image ControlNet) carry none, so they surfaced as loadable chat models.
Fall back to resolving the repo id against the known diffusion families, the
same resolver the Images backend loads from, so these checkpoints are tagged
text-to-image and stay in the Images picker only.

* Studio Images: add the FLUX.2-dev model family
Loading unsloth/FLUX.2-dev-GGUF failed because detect_family knew only the
Qwen3-based FLUX.2-klein, so FLUX.2-dev (the full, Mistral-based Flux2Pipeline)
resolved to nothing and the load errored. Add a flux.2-dev family: Flux2Pipeline
+ Flux2Transformer2DModel over the black-forest-labs/FLUX.2-dev base repo (gated,
reachable with an HF token), with its FLUX.2 32-channel VAE and Mistral text
encoder wired for the sd-cli path from the open Comfy-Org/flux2-dev mirror.
text-to-image only: diffusers 0.38 ships no Flux2 img2img / inpaint pipeline for
dev. Frontend gets sensible dev defaults (28 steps, guidance 4), distinct from
klein's turbo defaults. Verified live: GGUF load resolves the family + gated base
repo and generates a real 1024x1024 image on GPU.
* [pre-commit.ci] auto fixes from pre-commit.com hooks
for more information, see https://pre-commit.ci
* Studio Images: clearer error for an unsupported diffusion model
When a repo id resolves to no diffusion family the load raised 'Could not infer a
diffusion family... Pass family_override (z-image)', which points at an unrelated
family and doesn't say what is supported. Replace it with a message that lists the
supported families (from a new supported_family_names helper) and notes that video
models and image models whose diffusers transformer has no single-file loader are
not supported. Applies to both the diffusers and native sd.cpp load paths. Also
refreshes two stale family-registry comments that still called FLUX.2-dev omitted.

* Add SDXL diffusion family (U-Net pipeline support)
SDXL is the first U-Net family in the diffusion backend: its denoiser is
pipe.unet (UNet2DConditionModel), not a DiT pipe.transformer, and a single-file
.safetensors is the whole pipeline rather than a transformer-only file. The
backend previously assumed a DiT transformer everywhere, so add the two hooks a
U-Net family needs and register SDXL.
DiffusionFamily gains denoiser_attr ("transformer" for DiT, "unet" for SDXL) and
single_file_is_pipeline (SDXL loads a single file via pipeline_class.from_single_file
with the base repo as config, instead of transformer_class.from_single_file plus a
companion assembly). _align_vae_dtype now reads the denoiser generically so img2img
and inpaint keep the VAE and U-Net dtypes aligned.
The non-GGUF trust gate is extended with a short, exact-match, safetensors-only
allowlist of official base repos (the SDXL base/refiner and sdxl-turbo), because
SDXL ships only as a full pipeline and has no unsloth-hosted GGUF. Local paths stay
trusted as before; a random repo, even one that detects as SDXL, is still rejected.
The image-conditioned and ControlNet workflows are the standard SDXL pipelines,
built around the resident modules via from_pipe like every other family, so SDXL
gets txt2img, img2img, inpaint, outpaint, upscale, LoRA and ControlNet. There is no
native sd.cpp mapping yet, so the no-GPU route falls back to diffusers.
Frontend catalog gains SDXL Base 1.0 and SDXL Turbo entries with SDXL step/guidance
defaults (Turbo: few steps, no CFG; base: ~30 steps, real CFG).
Tests: new test_diffusion_sdxl.py (family shape, detection, trust allowlist, model
kind, U-Net VAE-dtype alignment, LoRA gate) plus loader-branch tests in
test_diffusion_backend.py (pipeline-kind from_pretrained, single-file whole-pipeline
from_single_file, allowlist accept/reject). Verified live on GPU: sdxl-turbo loads
both as a pipeline and as a single file and generates coherent txt2img + img2img.
* [pre-commit.ci] auto fixes from pre-commit.com hooks
for more information, see https://pre-commit.ci
* Images: LoRA free-text Hugging Face entry + recipe round-trip
The backend has always accepted a bare Hugging Face repo id (owner/name, or
owner/name:weight-file.safetensors) as a LoRA, downloading and applying it. But the
picker only rendered when the curated catalog had entries, and the catalog is empty,
so there was no UI path to apply any LoRA. Show the LoRA section whenever the loaded
model supports LoRA, and replace the curated-only dropdown with a text input: type a
Hub repo id, or pick a discovered adapter from a datalist of suggestions when the
catalog is populated.
Also restore LoRAs when loading a recipe. restoreSettings now parses the recipe's
"id:weight" strings (splitting on the last colon, since the id itself may contain one
for a specific weight file) back into the selection, so replaying a saved image
reproduces its adapters. The generate payload trims hand-typed ids and drops empty /
zero-weight rows, and a model swap clears the selection (a LoRA is family-specific)
without discarding a free-text pick that is not in the curated list.
* Add diffusion LoRA training (SDXL text-to-image)
First diffusion training path in Studio: train a LoRA on the SDXL U-Net from an
image + caption dataset and export it as a diffusers .safetensors that the existing
diffusion LoRA loader (and any diffusers pipeline) can load.
core/training/diffusion_lora_trainer.py:
- DiffusionLoraConfig with validation/defaults (rank, alpha, targets, lr, steps, grad
accumulation, resolution, min-SNR gamma, gradient checkpointing, lr scheduler, seed,
mixed precision).
- discover_image_caption_pairs: captions from metadata.jsonl / captions.jsonl, per-image
.txt/.caption sidecars, or a dreambooth instance_prompt fallback (pure, unit-tested).
- run_diffusion_lora_training: the loop -- freeze base, PEFT-wrap the U-Net attention
projections, VAE-encode (fp32 VAE to avoid the SDXL fp16 overflow), sample noise +
timesteps, predict, MSE loss with optional min-SNR weighting (epsilon / v-prediction),
AdamW + get_scheduler + grad accumulation + grad clipping, then export via
save_lora_weights. Emits worker-protocol events (model_load_*, progress, complete) and
polls should_stop for a clean stop with a partial save.
- run_diffusion_training_process: mp.Queue subprocess adapter (event_queue / stop_queue),
so the training worker can spawn it; plus a CLI entry point.
Only SDXL (U-Net) is trained here; DiT families and the Studio UI form + route wiring are
follow-ups. The trainer is decoupled and worker-ready.
Tests: test_diffusion_lora_trainer.py covers caption discovery (metadata / sidecar /
instance prompt / skip-uncaptioned / errors), config normalisation + validation, the SDXL
add-time-ids, and the dict->config adapter. Verified live on GPU: a 60-step SDXL LoRA run
lowers the loss, exports a ~45 MB adapter, and loading it back shifts generation from
baseline (mean abs pixel diff ~55/255).
* [pre-commit.ci] auto fixes from pre-commit.com hooks
for more information, see https://pre-commit.ci
* diffusion trainer: emit learning_rate in progress events (Studio pump compatibility)
The Studio training pump reads 'learning_rate' from progress events; the diffusion
trainer emitted 'lr'. Rename the field (and the CLI reader) so the trainer's events are
directly consumable by the existing training status/SSE machinery when it is wired into
the worker, without a translation shim.
* Wire diffusion LoRA training into the Studio API
Make the SDXL LoRA trainer reachable from the app with a small, self-contained job
service and JSON routes, deliberately separate from the LLM TrainingBackend (whose
lifecycle -- LLM config build, per-run SQLite rows, matplotlib plots, transfer-to-chat-
inference -- is text-training specific and would mis-handle a diffusion run).
core/training/diffusion_training_service.py: DiffusionTrainingService runs one job at a
time -- validate the config cheaply (before any spawn), spawn the trainer subprocess
(spawn context, parent-lifetime bound), pump its events (model_load_* / progress /
complete / error) into an in-memory status snapshot, and support a clean stop. The
subprocess context and target are injectable so the full start -> pump -> status ->
complete path is unit-tested without real multiprocessing or torch.
routes/training.py: POST /api/train/diffusion/start (400 on a bad config, 409 when a job
is already running), POST /api/train/diffusion/stop, GET /api/train/diffusion/status
(JSON poll). models/training.py: DiffusionTrainingStartRequest + response schemas
mirroring DiffusionLoraConfig, so model_dump() passes straight through.
Tests: test_diffusion_training.py -- service happy path, bad-config-before-spawn,
concurrent-job rejection, clean stop, crash-without-terminal-event, event transitions;
plus route wiring via the FastAPI TestClient (start / 422 / 400 / 409 / status / stop)
with a mocked service. The diffusion trainer's progress events already use the field
names this path expects.
* [pre-commit.ci] auto fixes from pre-commit.com hooks
for more information, see https://pre-commit.ci
* Images: add a Train LoRA (SDXL) dialog
Surface the diffusion training API in the Images page. A "Train LoRA" button in the top
bar opens a self-contained dialog to fine-tune an SDXL LoRA on a folder of images: pick
the base model, dataset folder, output folder, an optional instance prompt, and the core
hyperparameters (steps, rank, resolution, batch, learning rate), then Start. The dialog
polls the training status while open and shows a progress bar, step count, live loss, and
the saved adapter path, with a Stop button for a clean stop.
The dialog is independent of the loaded generation model (training runs in its own
subprocess), and prefills the base model with the loaded checkpoint when it is SDXL, else
the SDXL base. api.ts gains startDiffusionTraining / stopDiffusionTraining /
getDiffusionTrainingStatus plus their types, matching the /api/train/diffusion routes.
* Import diffusion training schemas from models.training directly
The import-hoist lint flags newly re-exported names in the models/__init__.py hub as
unused (it does not treat __all__ membership as a use). Import the three diffusion
training schemas straight from models.training in routes/training.py, where they are
used in the route annotations and calls, and drop the __init__ re-export.
* Remove stray async task scratch outputs committed by mistake
* ControlNet: reject filesystem-like ids and do not cache a model past an unload race
Two review findings on the ControlNet path:
- resolve_controlnet's bare-repo fallback accepted any id with a slash, so a
path-shaped id (/tmp/x, ../x) reached from_pretrained as a local directory.
Restrict the fallback to a strict owner/name HF repo id shape.
- _controlnet_pipe now re-checks the cancel event after the blocking
from_pretrained: an unload that raced the download had already cleared the
caches, so caching the late module would pin it past the unload.
* Pipeline prefetch: fetch only the default torch weights
A full-pipeline prefetch kept every repo file outside assets/, so an official
repo that ships multiple formats (SDXL Base: fp16 variants, ONNX, OpenVINO,
Flax, a top-level single-file twin) downloaded tens of GB from_pretrained never
loads. Skip non-torch exports and dtype-variant twins in
_pipeline_file_downloaded, and drop a component .bin when the same directory
carries a picked safetensors weight (diffusers' own preference).
* Diffusion LoRA training: fall back to fp16 when CUDA lacks bf16
The default mixed_precision=bf16 hard-fails on pre-Ampere GPUs (T4 / V100 /
RTX 20xx) which have no bf16 compute; check torch.cuda.is_bf16_supported()
and drop to fp16 there.
* Diffusion training service: join the old pump outside the lock
start() joined a finished job's pump thread while holding the service lock,
but the pump's final state writes need that same lock, so the join always
burned its full timeout and a stale pump could then overwrite the new job's
state. Join outside the lock (with a re-check after), and fence _apply_event
and the exit handler by process identity so a superseded pump can never touch
the current job's state. Adds regression tests for both.

* Diffusion LoRA training: harden config handling, cancellation, SDXL conditioning, and safety
Addresses review findings on the SDXL LoRA trainer:
- Gate the base model with the same trust check as inference (unsloth/*, allowlisted
official bases, or a local path) before from_pretrained, so an untrusted remote repo
is never fetched or deserialised.
- Check the stop signal before the (slow) model load, not only between steps, so a
cancel during download is honoured; a stop may carry save=False to cancel without
leaving a partial adapter.
- Per-sample SDXL add_time_ids from the actual crop (original size + crop offset, with
the offset mirrored on horizontal flip) instead of a fixed uncropped-square tensor.
- Apply EXIF orientation before resize/crop so rotated photos train upright.
- Skip gradient clipping when max_grad_norm <= 0 (the Studio 'disable' value) instead
of scaling every gradient to zero.
- Coerce Studio config strings/blanks: learning_rate string to float, blank hf_token to
anonymous, gradient_checkpointing 'none'/'true'/'unsloth' to bool; reject a zero/negative
lora_alpha or learning_rate.
- Alias the generic Studio training payload keys (model_name/max_steps/batch_size/lora_r/
lr_scheduler_type/random_seed) onto the diffusion field names.
- Mirror the trained adapter into loras/diffusion so the Images LoRA picker discovers it.
- Report worker exceptions in both message and error keys so the failure is not lost.
Adds regression tests for the config coercion/validation and aliasing.
* [pre-commit.ci] auto fixes from pre-commit.com hooks

* ControlNet: address review findings on the diffusers path
- resolve_controlnet enforces catalog family compatibility so a direct API call
cannot load a ControlNet built for another family through the wrong pipeline.
- Unknown ControlNet ids now surface as a 400 (call site maps FileNotFoundError
to ValueError) instead of a generic 500.
- strength 0 disables ControlNet entirely, so a no-op selection never pays the
download / VRAM cost; the control image is decoded and validated BEFORE the
ControlNet is resolved or built, so a malformed image fails fast for the same reason.
- ControlNet loads use the base compute dtype (state.dtype is a display string,
not a torch.dtype, so it silently fell back to float32) and honor the base
offload policy via group offloading instead of forcing the module resident.
- Empty/malformed HF token coerced to anonymous access.
- Flux Union ControlNet control_mode mapped from the selected control type.
- resolve_controlnet drops the unused hf_token/cancel_event params.
- ControlNetSpec validates guidance_start <= guidance_end (clean 422).
- Images UI ControlNet Select shows its placeholder when nothing is selected.
Adds regression tests for family enforcement and the union control-mode map.

* Diffusion training API: LLM interlock, pre-spawn VRAM free, path containment, no dropped knobs
Four review findings on the diffusion training start path:
- It spawned the SDXL trainer without checking the LLM TrainingBackend, so a
start while an LLM run was active put two trainers on the same GPU. Add a
symmetric interlock: diffusion start returns 409 when LLM training is active,
and LLM start refuses while a diffusion job is active.
- It went straight to service.start() without freeing GPU residents. Add a
pre-spawn free of the export subprocess, the resident Images pipeline (with an
arbiter release), and chat models, mirroring the LLM start path.
- data_dir / output_dir were passed through unresolved, so Studio-relative names
failed and absolute paths bypassed containment. Resolve them with
resolve_dataset_path / resolve_output_dir before spawn (400 on an uncontained
path).
- The request model dropped max_grad_norm and lora_target_modules, so runs that
set them trained with defaults. Add both fields.
The gemini pump-join deadlock was already fixed earlier (join outside the lock +
proc-identity fence). Note: honoring a stop DURING model load is a trainer-loop
change owned by the diffusion training engine PR (should_stop polled before the
first optimizer step). Adds route + model regression tests.

* Diffusion LoRA: harden resolution, native tag precedence, and diffusers teardown
Address review findings on the LoRA path:
- resolve_one: normalise a blank/whitespace hf_token to None (anonymous access)
and reject a client-supplied weight file with traversal / absolute path.
- resolve_specs: convert FileNotFoundError from an unknown/stale id to ValueError
so the route returns 400 instead of a generic 500.
- _scan_local: disambiguate local adapters that share a stem (foo.safetensors vs
foo.gguf) so each is uniquely addressable.
- inject_prompt_tags: the backend-validated weight now wins over a user-typed
<lora:ALIAS:...> for a selected adapter; unselected user tags are left alone.
- diffusers _apply_loras: reject a .gguf adapter with a clear error before touching
the pipe (diffusers loads safetensors only).
- _unload_locked: drop the explicit unload_lora_weights() on teardown; the pipe is
dropped wholesale (freeing adapters), so the previous call could race an in-flight
denoise on the same pipe.
- Images page: use a stable LoRA key and clear the selection (not just the options)
when the catalog refresh fails.
* [pre-commit.ci] auto fixes from pre-commit.com hooks
for more information, see https://pre-commit.ci
* Diffusion: guard trust check against OSError and validate conditioning inputs
- _is_trusted_diffusion_repo: wrap Path.exists() so a repo id with invalid
characters (or a bare owner/name id) can't raise OSError; treat any failure as
not-a-local-path and fall through to the unsloth/ allowlist. validate_load_request
still raises the clear FileNotFoundError for a genuinely missing local pick.
- generate(): reject mask_image / upscale / reference_images supplied without an
input image, and reject reference_images on a family that does not support
reference conditioning, instead of silently degrading to txt2img / img2img.
* SDXL: reject GGUF up front, skip unused base weights, drop refiner, and harden helpers
Addresses review findings on the SDXL family:
- Reject a GGUF load for single_file_is_pipeline families (SDXL) in validate_load_request,
before the route evicts the current model; SDXL has no transformer-only GGUF variant.
- Skip base-repo weight files when a whole-pipeline single file is loaded: from_single_file
(config=base) needs only the base config/tokenizer/scheduler, so a local .safetensors no
longer triggers a multi-GB base download.
- Remove the SDXL refiner from the non-GGUF trust allowlist: it is an img2img-only pipeline
but this backend loads every sdxl repo as the base txt2img pipeline.
- Normalize a blank/whitespace hf_token to None once in load_pipeline so every load branch
degrades to anonymous instead of erroring on a malformed token.
- Read the denoiser dtype from a parameter (compile-wrapped modules may lack .dtype) and
access state.family.denoiser_attr directly.
Adds/updates regression tests for the trust allowlist, GGUF rejection, and base-config filter.
* Images: preserve restored LoRAs through model load and never send hidden LoRAs
- The LoRA effect cleared the selection on every load->capable transition, which
wiped adapters restored from a gallery recipe before the model finished loading.
Track the previously-loaded family in a ref and clear only on a real family swap;
keep the selection on the initial load and on unload.
- Gate the generate payload's loras on loraCapable so a restored selection that is
hidden (loaded model does not support LoRA) is never sent to the backend.

* Images Train LoRA dialog: token, validation, precision, base-repo prefill, gating, refresh
Nine review findings on the SDXL training dialog:
- Forward the saved Hub token so a gated/private SDXL base can be trained (the
image load flow already sends it).
- Re-seed the base-model field from the current default each time the dialog
opens; the keep-alive dialog otherwise kept its mount-time default after a
model loaded.
- Prefill from base_repo (the diffusers pipeline) rather than repo_id, which for
a GGUF/single-file SDXL load is the checkpoint path from_pretrained can't open.
- Add client-side validation of steps/rank/resolution/batch/learning-rate before
the request.
- Expose a precision selector (bf16/fp16/fp32) so non-bf16 GPUs can train from
the UI, not only the API.
- Gate the dialog on the active Images route (active && trainOpen) so switching
tabs closes it and stops its polling.
- Rescan the LoRA picker when a run completes, so a freshly-trained adapter
appears without a model reload.
- Cap the dialog height and scroll the body so the Start/Stop footer stays
reachable on short viewports.
- Correct the copy to not over-promise picker auto-discovery.
Freeing the resident Images pipeline before training is handled backend-side in
the diffusion training start route.
* Merge diffusion-sdxl into diffusion-lora-ux; keep options-only LoRA catch
The catalog-refresh .catch from the lower branch clears the selected adapters
too, which is right for its catalog-only picker but wrong here: this picker
holds free-text HF repo ids that are valid without being in the catalog, so a
transient refresh failure must not wipe them. Family swaps still clear the
selection and hidden LoRAs are never sent.
* [pre-commit.ci] auto fixes from pre-commit.com hooks
for more information, see https://pre-commit.ci
* Train LoRA dialog: stop suggesting absolute paths the backend rejects
The dataset and output placeholders showed /path/to/... examples, but the
training routes resolve those fields inside the Studio home and reject
absolute paths outside the approved roots, so following the placeholder
produced a 400. Use folder-name placeholders and say in the labels and the
dialog description where each folder resolves.
* Align the VAE to the denoiser's first FLOATING dtype, not its first parameter
A GGUF-quantized transformer's leading parameters are packed uint8 storage,
so reading next(parameters()).dtype handed nn.Module.to() an integer dtype
and every image-conditioned generation on a GGUF model (Qwen-Image-Edit)
failed with a 500. Probe the parameters for the first floating dtype, treat
an all-integer module as a no-op, and also catch TypeError so an unexpected
dtype can never break generation. Regression test included.

* Count LR scheduler warmup/decay in optimizer steps, not micro-steps
lr_sched.step() runs once per outer optimizer step (after the gradient
accumulation inner loop), for train_steps total. The scheduler was
configured with num_warmup_steps and num_training_steps multiplied by
gradient_accumulation_steps, so with accumulation > 1 a warmup or
non-constant schedule stretched past the run and never reached the
intended decay. Count both in optimizer steps.
* Address Codex review findings on the image-workflows PR
Keep diffusion.py importable without torch: the compile/arch patch modules
import torch at module level, so import them lazily at their load/unload
call sites instead of at module load. This restores the torchless contract
so get_diffusion_backend() works on a CPU/native sd.cpp install.
Match family reject keywords and aliases as whole path/name segments, not
raw substrings, so an unrelated word like edited, edition, or kontextual no
longer misroutes or hides a valid base image model, while supported edit
families (Qwen-Image-Edit, FLUX Kontext) still resolve. Mirror the same
segment matching in the picker task filter.
Route FLUX.2-dev native guidance through --guidance like the other FLUX
families rather than --cfg-scale. Reject native upscale requests that have
no input image. Read image header dimensions and reject over-limit inputs
before decoding pixels, so a crafted small-payload image cannot spike
memory. Reject an upscale that would shrink the source below its input
size. Validate the model_kind against the filename extension before the
GPU handoff. Estimate a local diffusers pipeline's size from its on-disk
weights so auto memory planning does not skip offload and OOM. Report
workflows: [txt2img] from the native backend status so the Create tab
stays enabled for a loaded native model. Clamp the outpaint canvas to the
backend's 4096px decode limit.
Adds regression tests for segment matching and kind/extension validation.
* Guard inference loads and worker lifetime against diffusion training
Teach the chat and image load guards about an active diffusion (SDXL) LoRA
job: a chat load is refused (its footprint cannot be fit-checked against the
trainer) and an image load is refused outright, mirroring the existing LLM
training guards, so a load can no longer allocate GPU memory alongside the
trainer and undo the pre-start cleanup.
Bind the diffusion trainer subprocess to the parent's lifetime and scrub the
native path lease secret from it by running the child through
run_without_native_path_secret, matching the inference/export/LLM workers, so
a Studio crash or kill no longer leaves the trainer holding the GPU.
Reset in_model_load on the complete and error terminal events: a stop or
failure during model loading otherwise leaves the status reporting a stale
loading indicator after the job has ended.
* Harden diffusion LoRA handling on the diffusers and native paths
Reject LoRA on a torch.compile'd diffusers transformer (Speed=default/max):
diffusers requires the adapter loaded before compilation, so applying one to
the already-compiled module fails with adapter-key mismatches. The status
gate now hides the picker and generate raises a clear message instead.
Convert a cancelled Hub LoRA download (RuntimeError Cancelled) to the
diffusion cancellation sentinel in resolve_specs, so an unload/superseding
load during resolution maps to a 409 instead of a generic server error.
Drop weight-0 LoRA rows before the native support gate so a request carrying
only disabled adapters stays a no-op on families where native LoRA is
unsupported, matching the diffusers path.
Reject duplicate LoRA ids in the request model: both apply paths suffix
colliding names, so a repeated id would stack the same adapter past its
per-adapter weight bound.
Strip all user-typed <lora:...> prompt tags on the native path (only the
selected adapters are materialized in the managed lora-model-dir, so an
unselected tag can never resolve), and restore saved LoRA selections from a
gallery recipe so restore reproduces a LoRA image.
* [pre-commit.ci] auto fixes from pre-commit.com hooks
for more information, see https://pre-commit.ci
* Harden ControlNet resolve, gallery metadata, and the control-type picker
Check cancellation immediately after a ControlNet from_pretrained and before
any device placement, so an unload/eviction that raced the download does not
allocate several GB onto the GPU after the load was already cleared.
Require a loadable weight or shard index (not just config.json) before a local
ControlNet folder is advertised, so an interrupted copy is hidden instead of
failing deep in from_pretrained as a generic 500.
Do not record a strength-0 ControlNet in the gallery recipe: it is treated as
disabled and skipped, so the image is unconditioned and the metadata must not
claim a ControlNet was applied.
Build the control-type picker from the selected ControlNet's advertised
control_types instead of a hardcoded passthrough/canny pair, so a union model
with a precomputed depth or pose map sends the correct control_mode.
* Address further Codex findings on the image-workflows PR
- Persist the actual output image size in the gallery recipe instead of the
request sliders: Transform/Inpaint/Edit derive the size from the uploaded
image, Extend grows the canvas, and Upscale resizes it, so the sliders
recorded (and later restored) the wrong dimensions for those workflows.
- Reject a remote '*-GGUF' repo loaded as a full pipeline (no single-file
name) in validate_load_request, so the unloadable pick fails before chat is
evicted rather than deep in from_pretrained.
- Only publish an image-conditioned from_pipe wrapper to the shared aux cache
when the load is still current: from_pipe runs under the generate lock but
not the state lock, so an unload racing its construction could otherwise
cache a wrapper over torn-down modules that a later load would reuse.
- Verify the Windows CUDA runtime archive checksum before extracting it, like
the main sd-cli archive, so a corrupt or tampered runtime is rejected rather
than extracted next to the binary.

* Refuse non-SDXL base models at diffusion training start
The trainer only supports the SDXL U-Net, but a FLUX / Qwen-Image / Z-Image
repo or a GGUF filename passed as base_model was accepted and then failed
minutes later inside StableDiffusionXLPipeline.from_pretrained with an
unrelated-looking error. Add a name-based guard in normalized() so known
DiT-family names and .gguf checkpoints are rejected up front, which the API
start route surfaces as an immediate 400 with a message that says exactly
which bases are trainable. Unrecognisable names still pass through so custom
local SDXL checkpoints keep working.
* Add diffusion dataset upload and training info endpoints
Training an image LoRA required knowing the Studio home layout and copying
files onto the server by hand, which is the most confusing step of the whole
flow. Two small endpoints fix that:
- GET /api/train/diffusion/info reports the datasets and outputs roots plus
every dataset folder that contains images (with image/caption counts), so
the UI can offer a picker instead of a blind free-text path.
- POST /api/train/diffusion/dataset uploads images and optional caption
.txt / metadata.jsonl files into a named folder under the datasets root,
creating it on first use and accumulating on repeat uploads so large sets
can arrive in batches. Names are validated to a single path component and
files stream to disk under the same per-upload size cap as LLM dataset
uploads. The returned name is a valid data_dir for /diffusion/start.
* Rework the Train LoRA dialog into a guided SDXL flow
The dialog assumed users knew the Studio home layout and that only SDXL is
trainable, and hid both facts behind free-text fields. Restructure it around
the three real decisions:
- Base model is a dropdown of the trainable SDXL picks (Base 1.0, Turbo, the
loaded SDXL pipeline when there is one) with a custom repo/path escape
hatch, instead of a bare text field defaulting to a repo id.
- Training images come from an in-browser upload (new dataset endpoints) or
a picker over existing dataset folders with image/caption counts. No shell
access or knowledge of the datasets root is needed any more, and the
captioning rules are explained inline.
- The output field is now Adapter name and the instance prompt is labelled
as the trigger prompt, with a no-captions warning wired to the selected
dataset's actual caption count.
Hyperparameters collapse behind a training settings toggle since the
defaults suit a first run. A completed run says where the adapter went and
offers Done / Train another, and the top-bar button gets an icon and a
plainer description. The dialog title states the SDXL-only scope and that
other families load LoRAs but cannot train them yet.

* Validate diffusion training config before freeing the GPU
The start route freed resident GPU workloads (export, Images pipeline, chat)
before the service validated the config, so a start that was then refused,
now including a non-SDXL base model, tore down the user's loaded model for
nothing. Run the same cheap normalise pass first; the LLM path already
follows this rule via its before_spawn hook.
* [pre-commit.ci] auto fixes from pre-commit.com hooks
for more information, see https://pre-commit.ci
* Refactor diffusion LoRA training into a family-aware platform
Split the SDXL trainer into a shared, architecture-agnostic layer so more model
families can be trained without duplicating the plumbing:
- New core/training/diffusion_train_common.py holds the config + validation, dataset
discovery, event emission, stop protocol, adapter publishing, and a lazy trainer
registry (get_trainer). diffusion_lora_trainer.py keeps the SDXL-specific loop and
re-exports the moved names so existing imports are unchanged.
- The SDXL-only base-model blocklist becomes a positive check: the family is resolved
from the base model (or an explicit model_family) via the diffusion family registry,
and a known-but-not-yet-trainable family is refused with a clear message. Unknown
custom names still default to the SDXL trainer.
- DiffusionFamily gains a trainable flag and train_base_repos; SDXL is marked trainable.
DiT families flip on when their trainers land.
- Trained adapters now write a <name>.json metadata sidecar (family, base model, rank,
trigger prompt, ...) that the LoRA scanner reads to family-gate the adapter in the
picker instead of showing it as unknown for every model.
- The training base-model trust allowlist adds the official FLUX.1-dev, Z-Image-Turbo,
and Qwen-Image repos (safetensors-only, no remote code).
* Retain diffusion training loss history and expose it in status
The training service kept only the latest loss, so a live loss chart could show a
single point. Fold each progress event into bounded (step, loss, lr) history arrays
(capped at 4000 points, decimated when full) plus the latest throughput and peak VRAM,
and record the family / base model / catalog path on completion. The status endpoint
returns these as a nested metric_history object the UI can chart directly, and the
start request accepts an optional model_family override.
* Tests for the diffusion training platform
Cover the trainer registry (get_trainer resolves SDXL, unknown family raises),
family resolution (explicit model_family validation, resolved_family on the config),
the metadata sidecar write + scan read with family gating, and the service loss-history
folding (append, bad-point skipping, decimation at cap, family/perf fields) plus the
status route nesting metric_history.
* Add diffusion dataset labeling and example-import endpoints
The Train tab needs to let users caption small datasets in the browser and
pull in a ready-made set to see training work end to end, neither of which
the upload-only endpoint supported.
Add, under /api/train/diffusion/dataset:
- GET {name}/images lists every image with its resolved caption (metadata
beats a per-image sidecar, matching the trainer's discovery order) so
uncaptioned images are visible and flaggable.
- GET {name}/image/{filename} serves an image, with ?thumb=<px> returning a
cached downscaled JPEG kept in a hidden .thumbs subdir (regenerated when
the source is newer) so the labeling grid stays light.
- PUT {name}/caption/{filename} writes, or when blank clears, the .txt
sidecar; DELETE {name}/image/{filename} removes the image plus its
sidecars and thumbnails.
- GET dataset-examples lists a curated, license-labelled registry, and
POST dataset/import-example materializes one into a dataset folder as
numbered images + .txt captions. Two loaders cover the shapes seen in the
wild: streaming rows from datasets.load_dataset (dog-example, Tuxemon) and
a snapshot + jsonl walk for imagefolder repos whose captions live in a
non-standard *.jsonl (the public-domain tarot set). Imports are idempotent
and cap the image count.
Filenames and dataset names are validated against path traversal and pinned
inside the datasets root.
* Test diffusion dataset labeling and example-import endpoints
Cover caption precedence, thumbnail generation and .thumbs exclusion,
caption write/clear, image delete cleanup, path-traversal rejection on
names and filenames, and example import with a mocked datasets.load_dataset
(files plus sidecars written, idempotent second call, cap respected, load
failure mapped to 502).
* Add flow-matching DiT LoRA trainers (FLUX.1-dev, Qwen-Image, Z-Image)
Extends diffusion LoRA training beyond SDXL to the three popular DiT families
via a single shared flow-matching loop parameterised by small per-family specs
(loading, prompt/latent encoding, transformer forward, save). Verified against
diffusers 0.38.0:
- FLUX.1-dev: 2x2 latent packing + image ids, guidance-embed forward, on-the-fly
nf4 QLoRA of the 12B transformer (the dev repo is gated, so training needs the
user's HF token).
- Qwen-Image: 5D VAE latents normalised by the per-channel latents_mean/std,
img_shapes forward, prequant nf4 base by default (on-the-fly nf4 for the bf16
base).
- Z-Image: list I/O with the reversed timestep convention and a negated
prediction, bf16 only.
The registry (get_trainer) and DiffusionFamily.trainable / train_base_repos now
route these families to the DiT trainer; the SDXL blocklist guard is replaced by
a positive family resolution that also rejects GGUF repos (inference-only) and
still-unsupported families. Per-family defaults + labels + VRAM notes are exposed
via family_train_infos for the Train UI.
Memory: caption embeddings are precomputed once and the text encoders freed
before the loop; gradient checkpointing (non-reentrant, required for bnb 4-bit)
and 8-bit AdamW are on by default.
* Speed up + shrink SDXL LoRA training (precompute text embeds, 8-bit AdamW)
SDXL re-encoded every caption with both CLIP text encoders on every step (pure
waste, since captions are constant) and kept the encoders resident. Precompute
each unique caption's embeddings once, then free the text encoders before the
loop: numerically identical (embeddings are deterministic and this consumes no
torch RNG, so the noise/timestep stream is unchanged) but faster and ~1.5 GB
lighter. Default the optimizer to 8-bit AdamW (bitsandbytes) with an fp32
fallback, halving optimizer state with no meaningful LoRA quality cost. Env
toggles (UNSLOTH_DIFFUSION_NO_PRECOMPUTE / _FP32_OPTIM) let the accuracy guard
A/B the paths.
* Expose trainable families in /diffusion/info and preflight gated bases
The training info endpoint now returns the trainable model families (name,
label, default + allowed base repos, recommended defaults, and a VRAM/access
note) so the Train UI can offer a base picker with realistic guidance. The start
route preflights a gated base repo (HEAD model_index.json with the user's token)
BEFORE freeing resident GPU workloads, so a missing FLUX.1-dev license/token
fails fast with an actionable 400 instead of evicting the loaded model and then
hitting a confusing mid-load 401.
* Tests for DiT trainers, family resolution, info families, gated preflight
Cover the DiT spec table, the QLoRA prequant heuristic, the Z-Image bf16-only
guard, the gated-repo name check, family resolution now that FLUX/Qwen/Z-Image
are trainable (and GGUF repos are rejected as inference-only), the families list
in /diffusion/info, and the gated-base 400 preflight that leaves the GPU
untouched.
* Wrap the DiT training forward in bf16 autocast
The fp32 LoRA parameters and the bnb 4-bit base matmuls need a single
compute dtype during the forward, exactly like the diffusers dreambooth
scripts run under accelerator.autocast. Without it the 4-bit backward on
FLUX.1-dev fails with an illegal-address CUBLAS error partway into the
first step. Z-Image and Qwen-Image smokes are unaffected and the SDXL
path (its own trainer) is untouched.
* [pre-commit.ci] auto fixes from pre-commit.com hooks
for more information, see https://pre-commit.ci
* Add Smithsonian Butterflies and Nouns example datasets
Two permissive ~100-image sets for the Train tab: huggan/smithsonian_butterflies_subset
(CC0, the classic diffusers-docs training set, imported as a subject set with a trigger
prompt since its metadata columns are species names not captions) and m1guelpf/nouns
(CC0, captioned pixel-art avatars via the text column). Both cap at 100 images.
