Installer: opt-in Vulkan llama.cpp backend (and fallback when no AMD card is HIP-supported) (#7373)
* feat(install): opt-in Vulkan llama.cpp backend and HIP gfx fallback (#7357)

Add UNSLOTH_LLAMA_BACKEND=vulkan and --llama-backend vulkan to force the
upstream Vulkan prebuilt on any host, persist llama_backend in the install
marker, and re-assert it during Studio updates.

On Windows AMD, auto-fallback to Vulkan when no detected gfx arch is in the
upstream win-hip-radeon GPU_TARGETS set (e.g. gfx803 / RX 480). Mixed setups
where at least one card is HIP-supported still default to HIP unless opted in.

* [pre-commit.ci] auto fixes from pre-commit.com hooks

for more information, see https://pre-commit.ci

* fix(install): address Codex P2s on Vulkan gfx routing (#7357)

Honor ROCm family tokens (gfx110X), include fork-supported gfx1103, require
a known active gfx before auto-Vulkan, and base the HIP floor check on the
visible-device target instead of every physical GPU in hipinfo.

* Address Codex review: env namespace, physical-NVIDIA guard, test kwarg

- llama_backend_from_env: stop reading UNSLOTH_LLAMA_CPP_BACKEND. That is a
  separate pre-existing setup variable meaning auto/cpu; setup.sh/setup.ps1
  warn and ignore other values, so reading it here forced Vulkan behind that
  warning. Vulkan opt-in stays on UNSLOTH_LLAMA_BACKEND / UNSLOTH_FORCE_VULKAN.
- _should_auto_vulkan_for_amd_windows: gate on not has_physical_nvidia (not
  merely has_usable_nvidia). A CUDA-masked NVIDIA card keeps has_physical_nvidia
  while has_usable_nvidia goes False; Vulkan ignores CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES and
  could enumerate the reserved card. Mirrors the Intel auto path. Explicit
  opt-in still overrides.
- test fakes: validate_prebuilt_attempts/validate_prebuilt_choice gained a
  llama_backend kwarg; the four fake signatures in the fallback tests now
  accept it, clearing the TypeError that reddened Backend CI / Repo tests (CPU).

Tests: UNSLOTH_LLAMA_CPP_BACKEND=vulkan no longer triggers Vulkan; hidden
physical NVIDIA suppresses AMD auto-Vulkan while explicit opt-in overrides.

* Keep gfx1034 on the ROCm path (fork gfx103X bundle covers it)

The WINDOWS_HIP_PREBUILT_GFX_TARGETS allow-list omitted gfx1034, so
_route_to_vulkan_prebuilt downgraded RX 6500/6400-class hosts to the upstream
Vulkan prebuilt before published_rocm_choice_for_host could match the fork
windows-rocm gfx103X bundle (whose members include gfx1034). Add gfx1034 to the
allow-list and a regression test asserting it stays on the fork ROCm asset.

* Tighten the Vulkan backend routing comments for PR #7373

* Keep the visible-device-aware gfx when setup forwards --rocm-gfx

setup.ps1 resolves the gfx arch from its own probe, and that pick is not
fully visible-device aware: neither the hipinfo nor the amd-smi branch
reads CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES, and the amd-smi branch matches a bare integer
only, so a comma-separated HIP/ROCR mask such as 1,0 also falls back to
GPU 0. The resulting arch was then forwarded through --rocm-gfx and
replaced the arch detect_host() had already resolved for the
runtime-visible GPU.

On a mixed-AMD Windows host that flipped the auto-Vulkan decision: with
GPU 0 gfx1100 and a masked-in gfx1010, the forward reinstated gfx1100,
_should_auto_vulkan_for_amd_windows() saw a HIP-supported arch and the
HIP bundle was installed for a GPU that cannot run it.

Fold the forward in as a fill rather than a replacement: it still supplies
the arch on amd-smi-only, driver-only and name-inferred hosts where the
probe reports none, which is what --rocm-gfx exists for, but no longer
overwrites a successfully detected active arch. An explicit
UNSLOTH_ROCM_GFX_ARCH stays authoritative, since it is the documented
manual override for hosts whose arch the probes get wrong.

* [pre-commit.ci] auto fixes from pre-commit.com hooks

for more information, see https://pre-commit.ci

* Scope the Windows AMD Vulkan fallback per device and per repo

Three follow-ups on the auto-Vulkan routing for #7357.

Keep an explicit --rocm-gfx authoritative. The previous round stopped a
forwarded gfx from replacing an arch detect_host() had already resolved,
but --rocm-gfx is also the documented operator override for hosts whose
probe is wrong or stale, and both arrive as the same argv. Narrow the
advisory case to the two shapes setup can actually be describing: an arch
the probe saw on this host (setup picked a different physical GPU of the
same box), or a family label such as gfx110X, which is a bundle name the
update path derives from the marker asset rather than a real GPU arch.
Any other value is an override for an arch no probe reported and stays
authoritative. Keeping family labels advisory also preserves the rule that
an in-generation-but-unbuilt arch (gfx1033) is never upgraded into the
gfx103X bundle.

Do not auto-route to Vulkan from a HIP-only device mask. HIP_VISIBLE_DEVICES,
ROCR_VISIBLE_DEVICES and CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES select the active arch, but the
Vulkan runtime honours none of them: it enumerates through
GGML_VK_VISIBLE_DEVICES and Vulkan ordinals in
LlamaCppBackend._get_gpu_free_memory_vulkan. Masking down to a below-floor
card therefore used to install a backend that could still enumerate the
HIP-capable card the user deliberately hid, possibly one reserved for another
workload. Require every physical AMD gfx to be below the floor, matching the
has_physical_nvidia gate right above it. So the per-GPU list survives to that
check, a forward that agrees with the probe no longer collapses
rocm_gfx_targets to a single entry.

Make the HIP support predicate repository-specific. The floor constant is a
union of ggml-org's windows-hip gpu_targets and the fork's windows-rocm
bundles, so it only answers "is this arch served" for the fork. With
--published-repo ggml-org/llama.cpp, direct_upstream_release_plan() offers
win-hip-radeon then CPU and never Vulkan, so the four fork-only archs
(gfx908, gfx90a, gfx1034, gfx1103) were declared supported and fell through
to CPU instead of the Vulkan bundle that would actually run. Add
UPSTREAM_WINDOWS_HIP_GFX_TARGETS and select the set from the planned repo.

* Keep probe-confirmed AMD GPUs in the physical list when a gfx is forwarded

rocm_gfx_targets is the physical inventory _should_auto_vulkan_for_amd_windows()
reads, so a forwarded --rocm-gfx that the probe never reported was deleting cards
the probe had confirmed. On a mixed Windows AMD box whose active device is masked
down to a below-floor card, a stale UNSLOTH_ROCM_GFX_ARCH or a name-inferred arch
for the other GPU collapsed the list to that one arch, the floor check concluded no
AMD GPU on the host reaches the Windows HIP prebuilt, and the install auto-fell back
to Vulkan, which honours no HIP mask and would enumerate the reserved HIP-capable
card. Add the forwarded arch to the list instead of replacing it: it selects the HIP
target, it does not redefine what hardware is present.

An empty probe still yields a single-entry list, so the driver-only Windows AMD host
the forward exists for keeps its automatic Vulkan fallback, and an explicit
--llama-backend vulkan is unaffected.

* Do not auto-fall back to Vulkan when a HIP device mask filtered the probe

hipinfo is itself a HIP application, and AMD documents HIP_VISIBLE_DEVICES as
"only devices whose index is present in the sequence are visible to HIP", with
that spelling recommended on Windows. Under a mask the Windows probe therefore
enumerates the visible devices, so rocm_gfx_targets is what survived the mask
rather than the physical inventory the auto-Vulkan floor check assumes. A
masked-out gfx1100 next to a visible gfx803 made the check conclude that no AMD
GPU on the box reaches the Windows HIP prebuilt and route the install to Vulkan,
which honours none of these masks and would enumerate the reserved card.

Decline to guess when a mask is set: the physical inventory is unknowable from a
masked probe, so keep the HIP / fork / source path. This only ever turns the
automatic fallback off, never on. The driver-only single-GPU host the fallback
exists for sets no mask, an all-hiding "" / -1 mask is still handled as no active
target rather than a partial view, and an explicit --llama-backend vulkan or
UNSLOTH_LLAMA_BACKEND=vulkan is unaffected.

Reading the physical inventory through an unmasked re-probe would also correct
_pick_rocm_gfx_target, which indexes the token list by the mask value and so
already assumes an unmasked probe. That is pre-existing behaviour on main and is
left alone here.

* [pre-commit.ci] auto fixes from pre-commit.com hooks

for more information, see https://pre-commit.ci

* Treat an all-hiding HIP device mask as suppressing the Vulkan fallback too

The mask guard exempted an empty or -1 value on the grounds that the probe reports
no active target under it, but that only holds for the probe: a forwarded
--rocm-gfx still reconstructs an active arch, and setup infers that arch from the
display-adapter name, which no HIP mask touches. A user who hid every AMD GPU from
HIP could therefore still be auto-routed to Vulkan, which honours none of these
masks and would then use all of them. That is the strongest form of the hazard the
guard exists for, not an exemption from it.

Presence of any of the three variables is now the whole test, which also removes
the value parsing. An explicit --llama-backend vulkan or UNSLOTH_LLAMA_BACKEND is
still unaffected.

* Grant the fork-only Windows HIP coverage to the fork, not to every mirror

The floor set is a union of the fork's windows-rocm bundles and only the fork is
planned from its manifest: resolve_simple_install_release_plans() compares
== DEFAULT_PUBLISHED_REPO and sends every other --published-repo through
direct_upstream_release_plan(), whose AMD branch offers win-hip-radeon then CPU
and never Vulkan. Exempting only the exact ggml-org spelling therefore told a
mirror carrying upstream-standard assets that fork-only archs such as gfx1034,
gfx1103 and gfx908 were HIP-served, landing them on HIP or CPU instead of the
Vulkan bundle that would actually run. Gate on the fork instead.

Matching the dispatch exactly, spelling included, also fixes a differently cased
repo: that really does take the upstream path, so it must be answered with
upstream coverage rather than the fork superset. An empty repo still defaults to
the fork, as the resolver does.

* Derive the Windows HIP gfx floor guard from the published manifest

The guard compared WINDOWS_HIP_PREBUILT_GFX_TARGETS against a second hardcoded
tuple in the same test file, so a windows-rocm arch newly published by the fork
passed both. Affected hosts would then be routed off the hash-approved fork ROCm
bundle onto an unhashed upstream Vulkan build with nothing failing.

Read the fork's llama-prebuilt-manifest.json through the installer's own
resolver instead, and assert the floor, the family labels, and the routing
tuple all still cover what it publishes. The manifest ships only as a release
asset, so an unreachable release skips with an explicit reason rather than
flaking. Both literals match the manifest as published today.

* [pre-commit.ci] auto fixes from pre-commit.com hooks

for more information, see https://pre-commit.ci

* Compress the Vulkan backend routing comments and docstrings for PR #7373

* Correct the family-label rationale in the Windows HIP coverage check

The comment justified serving gfx103X / gfx110X against any repository by
claiming upstream's windows-hip targets build every member of those families.
The fork manifest maps gfx103X to gfx1030..1032 plus gfx1034 and gfx110X to
gfx1100..1102 plus gfx1103, and UPSTREAM_WINDOWS_HIP_GFX_TARGETS carries
neither gfx1034 nor gfx1103, so the stated reason is wrong even though the
answer is right.

State the real reason instead. A family label is a bundle name, not an arch,
so the concrete GPU is unknown at this point; answering unsupported to cover
the two uncovered members would move gfx1030..1032 and gfx1100..1102 off a
working HIP build onto Vulkan for a card the label cannot identify. Those two
archs still reach Vulkan through the concrete-arch branch below, which does
answer per repository.

Comment only. No behaviour change: the 5850-combination override sweep still
reports 0 rocm_gfx_target changes, 0 auto_vulkan False to True flips and 680
True to False flips all backed by a probe-confirmed HIP GPU, and both the
feature and override profile matrices are byte-identical.

* Pin that a deliberate CPU install outranks Vulkan for PR #7373

UNSLOTH_LLAMA_CPP_BACKEND (setup.sh / setup.ps1, "auto" or "cpu") and
UNSLOTH_LLAMA_BACKEND (this module, a backend name) are separate variables at
separate layers, and both accept "cpu". setup translates its own =cpu into
--force-cpu, which is what pins the CPU-only bundle on a GPU host and keeps
Intel iGPU Vulkan crashes away (#7213), so no trigger this PR adds may
outrank it.

_route_to_vulkan_prebuilt already gets this right, since force_cpu
short-circuits ahead of the forced, auto-Intel and auto-no-HIP triggers.
Cover it so it stays that way: the matrix runs [Linux, Windows, macOS] x
[NVIDIA, AMD, Intel, CPU only] x [unset, vulkan, hip, rocm, cpu] with the
legacy UNSLOTH_FORCE_VULKAN set as well, and asserts the published bundle
survives every one. WSL presents as Linux to this resolver, so it rides the
Linux row.

Also assert the guard is not vacuous: the same host still takes Vulkan once
the CPU pin is gone, so the matrix cannot pass on a resolver that had simply
stopped routing to Vulkan.

Studio: fail fast on out-of-disk instead of a doomed llama.cpp source build (#7420)
* guard llama.cpp prebuilt against out-of-disk instead of doomed source build

* [pre-commit.ci] auto fixes from pre-commit.com hooks

for more information, see https://pre-commit.ci

* address review comments on out-of-disk guard

* keep reusable installs and Windows parity in the out-of-disk guard

* preserve the ENOSPC cause when re-raising fallback errors

* catch out-of-disk before the attempt loop and accept all llama-server layouts

* Fix out-of-disk detection gaps and false positives for PR #7420

Follow-ups found while testing the guard against a real ENOSPC (LD_PRELOAD
shim returning errno 28 under a path prefix, real network, real release):

- hydrate_source_tree retried the next mirror after an ENOSPC and only raised
  on the last URL. Both source fallbacks 404 for the published mix commit, so
  the reported cause was HTTP 404 and the run fell through to the source build
  exactly like before the guard. Stop at the first environment-fatal error.
- The 5 GB preflight rejected hosts that install fine. A full CUDA install
  peaks at 0.87 GB, the largest published bundle is 0.77 GB and macOS is
  0.01 GB, so at 3 GB free the install succeeded before and exited 4 after,
  with the source-build fallback suppressed too. It is now advisory, and a
  real ENOSPC still exits 4. This also drops the case where an install
  matching an older release plan was rejected before its reuse check.
- ENOSPC raised inside shutil.copytree arrives as shutil.Error with errno
  None and no __cause__ or __context__, so it was never classified. That path
  covers the hydrated source tree, the runtime overlay and the activation
  fallback copy.
- _causal_chain followed __context__ even when __suppress_context__ was set,
  so `raise ... from None` over an unrelated ENOSPC reported disk full and
  wrongly suppressed the source build.
- TemporaryDirectory now ignores cleanup errors: an rmtree failure on the way
  out replaced the in-flight SystemExit and lost EXIT_NO_SPACE.
- setup.sh skips the arm64 CPU last resort after exit 4; it re-ran the same
  disk-rejected installer and buried the hint under a second error dump.
- The in-app updater turns exit 4 into a readable message instead of
  "installer exited 4" plus a log tail.

Adds tests/studio/install/test_llama_prebuilt_no_space.py covering the
classifier, the advisory warning and the exit codes.

* Fix Python 3.9 breakage and Windows disk-full detection in the out-of-disk guard

Found by running the guard across the whole supported interpreter range
(requires-python is >=3.9,<3.15) and a spoofed [Linux, WSL, macOS, Windows] x
[NVIDIA, AMD, CPU] host matrix.

- TemporaryDirectory(ignore_cleanup_errors = True) is 3.10+, so the previous
  commit raised TypeError at install time on 3.9 and turned a working install
  into a hard failure. Replaced with a scratch_dir() contextmanager built on
  mkdtemp plus rmtree(ignore_errors = True), which behaves the same on every
  supported version.
- getattr(exc, "winerror", None) crashed on 3.9. urllib's HTTPError is an
  OSError that proxies unknown attributes to a wrapped file object and raises
  KeyError, which getattr does not swallow, so any mirror 404 during an install
  would have blown up inside the classifier. Read it defensively instead.
- Classify Windows disk-full by winerror as well as errno. CPython's
  PC/errmap.h maps ERROR_DISK_FULL (112) to ENOSPC but has no case for
  ERROR_HANDLE_DISK_FULL (39), which arrives as EINVAL, so a Windows
  os.replace() onto a full disk read as an ordinary failure and fell through to
  the source build.

Tests cover both winerror codes, a non-disk winerror, and HTTPError alone and
wrapped in a PrebuiltFallback. 116 simulation cases pass on 3.9 through 3.14.

* Classify quota, flattened Windows and validate-install out-of-disk for PR #7420

- EDQUOT counts as out of space: a quota'd home has free blocks this user
  cannot have, so the source build is just as doomed. Reported separately so
  df does not mislead. Confirmed end to end with a real kernel EDQUOT: the
  installer went from 6 retries then a source build (exit 2) to exit 4.
- Match the flattened Windows disk-full text. copytree stringifies each
  per-file OSError, and OSError.__str__ returns early on winerror, so the
  text reads [WinError 112] and never [Errno 28]. Captured on a real NTFS
  volume. Markers are bracketed so WinError 112 does not match WinError 1120.
- --validate-install now exits 4 on a full disk. It caught PrebuiltFallback
  and exited 2 before the classifier ran, and setup.sh answered 2 by deleting
  the GPU build that had just succeeded and starting a CPU rebuild that needs
  more of the space that ran out. Both halves are needed: the call site only
  tested nonzero.

Studio: add local speech-to-text dictation engine (#7095)
* Studio: add Voice settings tab (dictation, dictionary, read aloud)

New Voice tab in Settings, placed just before About:

- Dictation: microphone picker, browser STT engine, recognition language,
  and an inline mic test with a live transcript
- Dictation dictionary: entries rewrite matching speech to their exact
  spelling and casing, applied in both dictation paths
- Recent dictations: last 20 final transcripts with copy and clear, so
  text can be recovered if it lands in the wrong place
- Read aloud: optional button on assistant responses with two engines,
  curated system voices (novelty and legacy voices filtered, quality
  ranked, capped at 20) or the TTS audio model loaded in Unsloth via
  /audio/generate (e.g. Orpheus), plus speed, pitch, volume and preview

Settings persist in localStorage (unsloth_voice_settings) and are read
at call time so changes apply without reloading the runtime. Adds en
keys plus the tab label for ja, zh-CN and pt-BR.

* Studio: drop the single option STT engine select, rename TTS option

The STT engine dropdown only had one entry, so it added noise without
giving a real choice. The engine row can come back once local STT
models land. Also renames the TTS engine option Unsloth TTS model to
Load TTS model to make the action clearer.

* Studio: harden Voice settings against edge cases found in simulation

Simulated the feature across Chromium, Firefox and WebKit plus node
level unit runs and backend contract checks. Fixes from the findings:

- Dictionary rewrite used a replacement string, so entries containing
  dollar patterns corrupted transcripts (A$$AP became A$AP, $& injected
  the match). Switched to the callback form of String.replace
- Persisted voice settings now validate types on hydration: non string
  micDeviceId, dictationLanguage and ttsVoiceURI, and non boolean
  ttsEnabled fall back to defaults instead of flowing into the UI
- Dictionary entries are trimmed, capped at 120 chars and re-sanitized
  on hydration
- The Test dictation panel now falls back to the default microphone
  when the saved device is unplugged, matching the composer adapter

Test coverage: 46 unit assertions (dictionary regex edge cases across
unicode, word boundaries and injection, voice curation for simulated
macOS, Windows and Linux voice inventories, corrupt storage merge),
13 backend contract checks against /audio/generate on an isolated
instance, and 60 browser assertions across the three engines covering
rendering, degradation without SpeechRecognition, curation in a real
DOM, dictionary persistence with unicode and dollar entries, the
no-model preview error path and corrupt localStorage recovery.

* Studio: address Voice settings review feedback

Verified each review comment before acting. Confirmed and fixed:

- Editing a dictionary entry was broken in two ways: the store trimmed
  on every keystroke so spaces could not be typed, and clearing the
  field deleted the entry and unmounted the input mid edit. Updates now
  keep the raw value and a blur commit trims or removes the entry
- The unplugged mic fallback checked instanceof DOMException, but a
  cross browser probe showed Firefox and WebKit throw
  OverconstrainedError objects that are not DOMExceptions, so the
  fallback never fired there. Matching on the error name now
- When the browser ended a dictation test on its own (silence timeout),
  the mic stream stayed open. All recognition end paths now stop the
  tracks and save the transcript through a single finalize path
- The studio TTS audio element now releases its WAV data URL as soon as
  playback ends, fails or is cancelled
- Allow microphone now reports insecure contexts (no mediaDevices)
  accurately instead of claiming access was blocked
- Voice tab copy moved into i18n keys per src/i18n/AGENTS.md, so locale
  overlays can translate it; en is the baseline and parity passes
- unsloth_voice_settings added to the Reset all local preferences key
  list so voice preferences obey the reset
- Non default microphones note that the system default is used when the
  browser speech engine cannot bind a specific device, since browsers
  without the start(track) overload ignore the argument silently

Re-ran the full simulation set after the changes: 46 unit assertions,
13 backend contract checks and 60 browser assertions across Chromium,
Firefox and WebKit all pass, plus a dedicated browser probe for the
dictionary editing behavior.

* Studio: use the chat mic icon in Voice settings for consistency

The Voice tab and its buttons used the hugeicons Mic02 glyph while the
chat composer uses a custom filled mic. Extract that composer icon into
a shared lib/mic-icon component, drop the duplicate inline copies in
thread.tsx and shared-composer.tsx, and use it for the Voice tab icon
and the tab's mic buttons so the microphone looks the same everywhere.

* Studio: address second round of Voice settings review feedback

Verified each new comment against the current code first. One item was
already fixed in the previous round (recording transcripts when the
browser ends a dictation test on its own). Confirmed and fixed:

- The microphone row showed a picker with generic names when browsers
  enumerate unlabeled devices before permission, leaving no way to
  grant access from the row. It now branches on whether labels are
  visible and shows Allow microphone otherwise
- Compare chat dictation ignored the selected microphone. It now opens
  the chosen device with the same fallback rules as the main adapter,
  passes the track to recognition where supported and releases the
  stream when recognition ends
- Closing the Voice tab cancelled the shared speechSynthesis even when
  read aloud was playing a chat message. Cleanup now only cancels when
  the tab owns an active preview
- Double clicking Start test could race two recognizers and leak the
  first stream. A starting flag set before the getUserMedia await makes
  start reentrancy safe
- Turning off the read aloud setting mid playback removed the only stop
  control. The stop button now renders whenever a message is speaking
- When an engine lacks the start(track) overload, both dictation paths
  now release the selected device stream before retrying with the
  default microphone instead of holding it open
- Read aloud support no longer requires Web Speech synthesis: the
  Unsloth TTS engine only needs audio playback, so it stays available
  in WebViews without speechSynthesis, with a clear error if the system
  engine is chosen there

Not addressed here: cancelling in flight backend TTS generation on
stop. The route runs generation in a worker thread without a
cancellation path, which is shared pre existing behavior with audio
chat generation and belongs in a backend change.

All suites re-run green: 46 unit, 13 backend contract and 60 browser
matrix assertions across Chromium, Firefox and WebKit, plus probes for
the unlabeled device branch and the double click race.

* Studio: drop empty and duplicate voiceURIs so the Voice tab never renders a crashing Select item

* Studio: guard dictation mic lifecycle in Voice test and Compare composer

Release a microphone opened after the component unmounts, and stop Compare
dictation on a permission or security failure instead of silently recording
from the default device, matching the main chat adapter.

* Studio: fix dictation and read-aloud lifecycle edge cases in Voice settings

- Join final dictation chunks with a space so recorded transcripts do not merge words
- Ignore a stale recognizer onend so a quick stop then restart is not torn down
- Use previewingRef so a double click on TTS preview does not orphan the first request
- Keep the read-aloud stop control visible when a new run starts while a message is spoken
- Stop the dictionary remove button from deleting an adjacent entry on a blur then click race

* Studio: trim redundant Voice settings comments

* Studio: fix Voice preview and Compare dictation edge cases

- Only cancel the shared speechSynthesis for a system-voice preview, so stopping
  a Studio preview no longer stops an unrelated chat read-aloud
- Release the Studio preview audio and its WAV data URL on normal completion
- Iterate every finalized result in Compare dictation so batched phrases are kept
- Cap persisted recent dictations to the last 20 on hydration

* Studio: use clipboard fallback for recents and release failed preview audio

- Copy recent dictations via the copyToClipboard helper so the execCommand
  fallback works in Safari and insecure http LAN contexts
- Release the Studio preview audio when play() rejects, not just on ended/error

* Studio: add local speech-to-text dictation engine

Add an offline dictation engine that transcribes with a local faster-whisper
model, alongside the existing browser (Web Speech) engine. The browser engine
streams audio to Apple or Google speech services and needs internet; the new
engine runs on the server, works offline, and drives any chat model without
evicting it (it loads in the backend process, separate from the model
subprocess). It also gives Firefox dictation, which has no Web Speech support.

Backend: a lazily-loaded, kept-warm faster-whisper sidecar and three routes
under /api/inference/audio (stt/status, stt/load, transcribe). faster-whisper
is torch-free, so this does not disturb the existing model stack.

Frontend: a Dictation engine setting (browser or local model), a curated model
picker with sizes, and MediaRecorder capture posted to the transcribe route.
The model warms automatically when the engine is selected, with live status.

* Studio: stream local STT transcription as you speak

Local dictation showed nothing until you stopped, because the whole clip was
transcribed once on stop. Now the growing recording is re-transcribed on a
fast pass every second and emitted as live interim text, with an accurate
final pass on stop. Partial recordings decode fine, and the model refines
earlier words as more audio arrives.

Adds an interim flag to the transcribe route (beam 1, no VAD) for the fast
preview pass; the final stop uses the accurate path.

* Studio: make local dictation stop instant and reliable

Stopping local dictation waited for a final network transcription before the
session ended, so the stop button did not flip and a second click ended the
session early and dropped the text. Now stop commits the live transcript
immediately, releases the mic at once, and ignores a second stop while
finalizing. Previews run more often so the committed text is current.

* Studio: record local dictation in short clips for reliable streaming

Re-transcribing a growing buffer every second got slower as it grew, flooded
the backend, showed stale words, and could leave the stop button stuck waiting
on a backlog. Record short independent clips instead and transcribe each once,
appending the text as you speak. Work per clip is bounded, so stopping is
prompt (with a hard timeout as a safety net) and long dictations stay smooth.

* Studio: dictate then transcribe once on stop, ChatGPT style

Local STT dictation streamed by re-transcribing the growing clip, which
was quadratic and saturated the backend (multi-second lag), and stop only
halted the recorder without releasing the mic, so it kept recording. Record
the microphone continuously, release it the instant the user stops, and
transcribe the whole clip once. Stopping is immediate and the transcript
lands in about a second. Also add the tiny model for the fastest option.

* Studio: surface dictation and read-aloud failures instead of failing silently

- Compare dictation reports microphone and speech-recognition errors via toast,
  reusing the main chat adapter's describeMediaError and describeSpeechError
- Read-aloud toasts genuine model or synthesis failures while ignoring cancellations

* Studio: ChatGPT-style recording bar for dictation

Clicking the mic now drops the composer into a dedicated recording bar
with a live waveform, a discard (X) and a confirm (tick), instead of a
plain stop button. The tick stops recording and transcribes the clip;
the X throws the recording away and keeps whatever text was already in
the composer. The model adapter taps the mic with an analyser to drive
the waveform, and the router tracks the live session so the X can cancel
it without transcribing.

* Studio: transcribe dictation while speaking, ChatGPT layout

Match ChatGPT's recording layout: the bar now renders in place of the
input with the left plus button kept, the waveform in the middle, and
the discard and confirm buttons together on the right.

Cut the post-confirm delay by transcribing in the background as the user
talks. The audio is split at natural pauses (voice-activity detection off
the same analyser that drives the waveform) and each clip is transcribed
as it is cut, so confirming only has to finish the short final tail. The
model is also warmed when recording starts so the first run never pays a
cold load.

* Studio: ChatGPT waveform, hide tools while dictating, faster STT

Make the recording UI read like ChatGPT: the waveform is now a dense row
of round dots that rise into thin centered bars, and while dictating only
the plus button shows, with the mode badge and tool toggles hidden so the
bar is just the waveform and controls.

Speed up transcription: decode greedily (beam_size=1), which is several
times faster on CPU with negligible accuracy loss on short dictation
clips, and cap background segments at 6s so the final tail after confirm
stays short.

* Studio: finish ChatGPT voice bar and low-latency STT

* [pre-commit.ci] auto fixes from pre-commit.com hooks

for more information, see https://pre-commit.ci

* Studio: full-width waveform with a timer that freezes on stop

Use the full-width waveform for the recording bar: brighter, bigger bars
that advance on a fixed cadence (keeping peaks between advances) so they
glide instead of racing by, inset from the composer edges. Keep a visible
timer and the green confirm button, matching the ChatGPT reference, and
freeze the timer and waveform the moment the user confirms.

* Studio: source local STT from Unsloth Whisper models

Point the dictation STT sidecar and its Model Hub download entries at
Unsloth's Hugging Face Whisper repos (small, large-v3-turbo, large-v3)
and run them through Transformers, so Studio only ever downloads
Unsloth-uploaded weights. Drop faster-whisper and the Systran/mobiuslabs
repos; keep the Model Hub as the only download path via local_files_only,
and keep PyAV for audio decoding.

Device selection uses float16 on CUDA and float32 on MPS and CPU, since
Whisper's decoder is unstable in float16 on MPS and repeats tokens.

Shorten the model picker labels to name plus download size and update the
STT tests for the new backend.

- Voice test now toasts non-abort speech-recognition failures instead of

  synthesis (audio-only WebView), so it no longer errors immediately.

* Fix read-aloud fallback controls

* Guard read-aloud stop when deleting a non-speaking message

aui.message().stopSpeaking() throws unless this message is the one being
read aloud, so calling it unconditionally rejected the delete handler before
the message was removed. Only stop speech when this message is speaking.

* Cap recent dictation transcript length before persisting

Recent dictations only limited entry count, so a long transcript stored the
full text in the persisted voice settings and a few could exceed the
localStorage quota, throwing synchronously from the uncaught dictation cleanup
path. Truncate each entry on save and on hydration, matching the dictionary cap.

* Studio: keep dictation mic clickable and guide to local model

Register the dictation adapter unconditionally so the mic stays enabled
for any engine and starts working right after switching to the local
model on an already-open thread.

When the browser engine cannot run (Firefox, Brave, non-secure origins),
clicking the mic shows a toast that points to the local speech-to-text
model instead of leaving a disabled button. The toast stacks its action
below the text with a fully rounded button.

* Studio: add bottom padding below the dictation guidance toast button

* Studio: increase bottom padding under the dictation toast button

* Studio: add bottom padding inside the dictation toast button

* Studio: add five Whisper defaults and custom model search

Add private UnslothAI Tiny and Base mirrors to the curated local STT choices while keeping Small as the default. Let users search or paste a Transformers-compatible Whisper repository and validate it end to end.

Keep short dictations in one clip to avoid repeated padded encoder work, then split longer recordings near Whisper's 30-second boundary.

Update hidden model filters and tests, including the CPU-only CI runtime stub for PyAV.

* Studio: use public Unsloth Whisper repositories

Point the Tiny and Base dictation defaults to the public unsloth repositories and remove the private mirror references from model filtering and tests.

* Studio: update Whisper download sizes

Reflect the cleaned public Tiny and Base repositories in the curated model labels.

* Studio: right-align STT model size, fix dropdown wheel scroll, refresh sizes

- Show the download size on the right of each model row so long names
  like Whisper Large v3 Turbo no longer hide it
- Update curated Whisper sizes to the safetensors weights actually
  downloaded: Tiny 151 MB, Base 290 MB, Small 967 MB
- Drive the model list scroll from a wheel handler so the mouse wheel
  scrolls it inside the Settings dialog, not just the scrollbar
- Add a search icon and shorten the placeholder to Search model

* Studio: do not search when a dictation model is picked, shrink repo label

- Treat the filled-in model text as a selection, not a query, so choosing
  a model no longer kicks off a Hugging Face search
- Make the repository line under each model name smaller

* Studio: tighten dictation model and local engine descriptions

* Studio: keep model display on pick instead of the query, shrink row text

- Guard the combobox input so selecting a model shows its name and does
  not echo the typed query back or start a search
- Map the item label to the friendly display so picks fill the field
- Reduce the model name and size text in each row

* Studio: show only the model name in the dictation field, shrink size label

- Drop the download size from the search field; the name alone is shown
  once a model is selected, with sizes kept in the dropdown list
- Reduce the size label text in each row

* Studio: clarify the dictation model description

* Studio: drop Hugging Face from the dictation model description

* Studio: move the dictation dictionary to its own Manage subpage

- Replace the inline entry list with a Manage row, matching Dictation
  history, so a long dictionary no longer crowds Voice settings
- Add a DictationDictionaryView subpage that holds the entry editor

* Studio: match STT field font, use best voice for System default

- Bump the dictation model field text to text-sm so it matches the
  engine dropdown next to it
- Resolve the System default read-aloud voice to the top curated voice
  instead of the browser default, which is a robotic legacy voice on macOS

* Studio: rerank read-aloud voices and drop duplicate voice entries

- Rank by vendor quality, then the user's locale, then a preferred list of
  natural voices, so the best voice leads instead of the first alphabetically
- Collapse voices that macOS reports twice under one name and language

* Studio: fold dictionary and recents into the dictation section

- Drop the separate Dictation dictionary and Recent dictations headings;
  their Manage rows now sit under Dictation, split by the row divider
- Shorten the custom spellings description

* Studio: add search and sort to dictation history

- Filter saved dictations by text with a search field
- Sort by newest, oldest, or A to Z; show a no-matches message
- Keep Clear all available regardless of the current filter

* Studio: settle cancelled STT loads before training and fix dictation review items

Wait for a cancelled STT load to exit and release its memory before
reporting it freed for training, so the loader cannot still be inside
from_pretrained()/.to(device) holding VRAM when the training subprocess
starts. A load that finishes before observing the cancel now gets
unloaded so the memory is actually reclaimed.

Clear the accelerator cache before the CPU fallback in load() so a failed
CUDA/MPS load does not strand reserved VRAM once the sidecar is marked
CPU-resident.

Send the saved Hugging Face token when polling STT download progress so a
gated or private repo resolves and shows the correct Load/Downloaded
state instead of reporting missing.

Mark the composer Dictate button as type="button" so clicking it does not
also submit the draft when the composer already has text or attachments.

* Studio: pin dictation settings per session and close STT startup races

Capture the STT model and language when a dictation session starts and
pass them to every queued segment and the warm-up load, so changing the
model or language mid-recording no longer transcribes the same clip with
the wrong model or a model that is not downloaded.

Check the local runtime at the top of transcribe(), before the model
cache lookup and the bounded audio decode, so a server missing PyTorch or
Transformers returns 501 up front instead of decoding a long clip first.

Treat the training startup window as active for STT device selection.
start_training frees VRAM in before_spawn but only assigns _proc later, so
a concurrent STT load could take the GPU that was just cleared. A startup
flag now reports training active from the free until the process is live,
forcing those loads to CPU; a finally clears it on every exit.

* [pre-commit.ci] auto fixes from pre-commit.com hooks

for more information, see https://pre-commit.ci

* Studio: stub the STT runtime check in transcribe orchestration tests

transcribe() now verifies the local runtime up front, so the unit tests
that exercise transcription orchestration must treat the runtime as
present to keep passing where PyTorch, Transformers, and PyAV are not
installed. Stub ensure_stt_available in the shared fixture and restore
the real check in the availability and load-rejection tests.

* Harden custom Whisper dictation models

* [pre-commit.ci] auto fixes from pre-commit.com hooks

for more information, see https://pre-commit.ci

* Add whisper.cpp dictation engine with per-engine downloads and history rework

Engines
- New GGML STT sidecar that runs a managed whisper-server subprocess with
  idle unload, plus a pinned static build script (scripts/build_whisper_cpp.sh)
- Dictation engine picker now offers Browser, Local transcription
  (whisper.cpp), and Local transcription (Transformers)
- Both local engines serve the same five curated Whisper models and download
  them directly with byte-level progress reported by /audio/stt/status
- Models auto load on selection and when their download finishes
- Unload and training admission account for both engines

Benchmarks (Apple Silicon, greedy, warm, same checkpoints)
- whisper.cpp transcribes 2.4x to 5x faster than Transformers and loads in
  about 0.45s vs 0.86s for Whisper Small
- whisper.cpp GGUF path is unchanged by the Transformers addition
  (load 0.445s -> 0.444s, short clip 0.391s -> 0.347s, long 1.197s -> 1.129s)

Voice settings UI
- Plain curated model select replaces the searchable combobox
- Single download progress bar with transfer rate for both engines
- Dictation history now stores every dictation with Show more pagination,
  a top Clear history action, and links back to the chat it was spoken into
- Archived chats dialog gets the same pagination
- Delete dialog offers deleting a dictation together with its chat

Tests: 88 backend STT tests pass, including new snapshot download coverage.
Frontend typecheck, lint, i18n parity, and production build pass.

* Merge local engines into one option and source GGML models from unslothai

Engine selection
- The dictation engine dropdown is back to two choices: Browser and Local
  transcription. The selected model decides the backend: curated ids run
  GGML checkpoints through whisper.cpp, searched Hugging Face repositories
  run safetensors through Transformers
- Model picker lists the curated models and searches Hugging Face for other
  Whisper repositories, validating them before selection. The trigger is a
  plain button so the selection never renders inside a text input
- /audio/stt/status accepts a model query param so downloaded state works
  for custom repositories; the engine param on load, transcribe, and
  download routes is derived from the model everywhere

Model source
- Curated GGML checkpoints now download from the Unsloth-hosted
  unslothai/whisper-*-GGUF repositories (one repo per model) instead of
  ggerganov/whisper.cpp; cache lookups, progress totals, and in-flight blob
  tracking are per-model

Fixes
- Voice settings and dictation history were not persisting: the quota-safe
  localStorage wrapper was declared after the store that uses it, so the
  persist storage factory failed silently. Every settings write also threw
  mid-click, which kept the model picker popover from closing on selection
- is_model_downloaded now verifies config, preprocessor config, and real
  weight files instead of trusting an offline snapshot lookup, so a partial
  download left by an aborted fetch shows the Download button instead of
  failing to load
- Removed whisper.cpp mentions from user-facing text: the ready status
  shows Loaded instead of the runtime name, picker rows show the source
  repository, and runtime error messages say local transcription runtime

Verified with automated browser sessions and live API checks: selection
closes the picker with no page errors, persisted settings hydrate on
reload, a stale partial snapshot triggers download then loads on MPS and
transcribes, and curated models download from the unslothai repos. 88
backend STT tests, typecheck, lint, i18n parity, and build pass.

* Skip the duplicate source line for custom models in the STT picker

A custom repository's display name is its id, so search results and the
appended current selection rendered the same string twice. The source
line now only renders when it differs from the name; curated rows keep
their name, unslothai source repository, and download size.

* Verify every shard of a sharded checkpoint in the downloaded check

A snapshot holding one of N shards (or a corrupt shard index) passed the
downloaded check and then failed at load. When model.safetensors.index.json
exists, every shard in its weight map must now be present. Found by
simulation; covered by a regression test.

* [pre-commit.ci] auto fixes from pre-commit.com hooks

for more information, see https://pre-commit.ci

* Rename stale _starting references in the pump resilience tests

The startup flag on TrainingBackend was renamed to _spawn_in_progress but
two tests added alongside it still asserted on the old name, failing the
Python 3.11 to 3.13 CI jobs.

* Make the selected model row clearly highlighted in the STT picker

The current selection was a faint background tint. It now uses the accent
background with a medium weight name. Two line rows use a small corner
radius; single line custom repo rows keep the pill shape.

* Address review feedback on STT snapshot checks, VRAM release, and dictation UX

Verify snapshot completeness in the load preflight so a partial download
fails before the audio is decoded, for curated and custom repos alike.
Drop the failed accelerator traceback before the CPU retry so the cache
clear can actually release that memory. Keep unloading the GGUF sidecar
after cancelling an in-flight Transformers load; both engines can hold
memory at once. Allow Auto language with English-only .en checkpoints,
matching the backend which sends no forced language. Keep the discard
button usable while a transcription is pending so a slow or hung request
cannot trap the composer in dictation mode. Stop linking Compare and
settings test dictations to the unrelated active single chat thread.

* [pre-commit.ci] auto fixes from pre-commit.com hooks

for more information, see https://pre-commit.ci

* Move the CPU retry out of the exception handler

On Python 3.10 the interpreter exception state keeps its own reference
to the traceback, so dropping it from the caught exception was not
enough to release the failed accelerator load during the retry. Leaving
the handler before clearing the cache works on every supported version.

* Address review feedback on session handoff, chat pinning, and server lifetime

Starting a dictation from a second entry point now cancels the session
it replaces, so the old recording cannot keep the microphone open or
save a transcript with no discard button pointing at it. The linked
chat is pinned when recording starts, so switching threads while a
transcription finalizes cannot relink the transcript to the newly
opened chat. whisper-server is now bound to Studio's lifetime like the
other long-lived children: PDEATHSIG on Linux, the parent job object on
Windows, and pid adoption so the shutdown sweep reaps it; before this
it survived a Ctrl+C exit as an orphan still holding the model.

* Remove the dictation mic test from Voice settings

The composer dictate button covers the same check, so the test row, its
transcript panel, the unsupported fallback row, and their strings and
search entry are gone.

* Studio STT: gate GGUF whisper-server on training and fix dictation retry and dictionary edits

GGUF (whisper.cpp) sidecar:
- Launch whisper-server with --no-gpu while training is active, mirroring the Transformers sidecar's CPU device choice, so a mid-training dictation cannot reclaim the VRAM training just freed.
- Report is_loading() during whisper-server startup so training VRAM admission accounts for the accelerator memory it is about to bind.
- Require PyAV in is_available() so /audio/stt/status reports the engine unavailable when uploads cannot be decoded, instead of loading fine and then 501ing at transcription.
- Reject a missing model before decoding audio, matching the Transformers download preflight.

Voice settings:
- The download Retry button now restarts the download; the sidecar error is sticky until a new start(), so re-polling alone never cleared it.

Dictation dictionary:
- Tabbing from an emptied entry to its remove button no longer commit-splices the row first, which shifted indices and deleted the wrong entry.

* [pre-commit.ci] auto fixes from pre-commit.com hooks

for more information, see https://pre-commit.ci

* Studio STT: fix curated GGUF whisper filenames to match hosted repos

The unslothai/whisper-*-GGUF repos host the checkpoint as whisper-<id>.bin,
not ggml-<id>.bin, so every curated dictation download and cached-path
lookup 404'd and the whisper.cpp engine could never load a model. Point
GGML_STT_MODELS at the real filenames and guard the naming with a test.

* Studio STT: validate a custom dictation repo before downloading it

The Transformers STT engine accepts an arbitrary owner/model repo, but the
download route handed it straight to snapshot_download, pulling a possibly large
non-Whisper repository into the shared HF cache. Confirm the repo is a Whisper
checkpoint first with the existing metadata-only validate_remote_model (no
weights); curated ids short-circuit and the GGUF engine (curated-only) is
unaffected. A non-Whisper repo now 422s before any download.

* Studio STT: preempt a still-loading GGUF server for training admission

A whisper-server still in its startup window binds accelerator memory but has no
loaded_model yet, so training admission could miss it and launch into an OOM.
Make the GGUF startup cancellable (cancel_pending_load signals an abort event and
terminates the starting process without the load lock; _wait_for_server observes
it and raises SttLoadCancelledError; wait_for_load_to_settle blocks on the lock
until the killed server is reaped), and always fold the GGUF sidecar into the
resident-STT summary so a resident Transformers model cannot mask a loading GGUF
server. free_stt_model_for_training now cancels an in-flight load and waits for it
to settle before training claims the memory.

* [pre-commit.ci] auto fixes from pre-commit.com hooks

for more information, see https://pre-commit.ci

* Studio STT: fall back to Transformers when whisper-server is absent

A curated dictation model (including the default small) hard-pinned the GGUF
engine, but standard installs do not ship whisper-server, so every recording
501'd instead of using the Transformers engine that serves the same checkpoint
-- the GGUF sidecar's own documented contract. Add _resolve_serving_stt_engine:
a GGUF request for a curated id (the only ids GGUF accepts, all Transformers-
servable) downgrades to Transformers when whisper-server is unavailable, applied
consistently to download, load and transcribe (not unload, which targets a
specific engine). The Voice tab likewise falls back to the Transformers status so
the model is not shown unavailable and download is not blocked.

* Studio STT: hide custom Whisper caches from the legacy model pickers

The legacy /cached-models (and /cached-gguf) routes called is_hidden_model with
only the owner/model id, which cannot reach the config-based Whisper check, so a
downloaded custom (non-curated) Whisper checkpoint was still offered as a chat
model. Pass the cached snapshot path so _path_is_whisper_model inspects the repo
config and hides it, matching the discovery route.

* Studio STT: hide GGUF dictation repos, lock-free status, unload fallback, split training eviction

- Hide the curated GGUF dictation repos (unslothai/whisper-*-GGUF) from the chat
  model inventory and pickers, backend and frontend. Only their Transformers
  safetensors companions were hidden; the GGUF repos use a different org and a
  -GGUF suffix and carry a raw .bin with no whisper config.json, so they leaked
  into chat pickers.
- Make the GGUF sidecar loaded_model/device accessors lock-free, mirroring the
  Transformers sidecar. transcribe() holds self._lock across the whole inference
  call, so /audio/stt status polls and training admission previously blocked
  behind an in-flight transcription.
- stt_unload resolves through the serving resolver: a "gguf" pick on a host
  without whisper-server is served by the Transformers fallback, so unload must
  target that engine or the resident model is never freed. Unload also attempts
  every engine even if one raises, so a failure freeing one backend no longer
  skips the other.
- free_stt_model_for_training frees the Transformers and GGUF sidecars under
  independent exception boundaries so a failure unloading one no longer skips
  the other before training claims the memory.

Adds tests/test_stt_review_fixes.py covering all four.

* Studio STT: resolve Auto dictation language for the model engine + snapshot process liveness

- The model dictation adapter sent the raw setting (the literal "auto") to the
  backend, while the browser engine resolves Auto via resolveDictationLanguage.
  A batch of non-English voice notes came back mostly English on Auto. Add
  resolveModelDictationLanguage: only the literal "auto" is resolved to a
  concrete locale, gated so it becomes a language the model AND Whisper can
  honor (mirroring the backend's known-whisper-languages set); an explicit
  language, or a locale Whisper cannot honor, stays unchanged/auto-detect. Wire
  it into both adapter call sites.
- GgmlSttSidecar._process_alive() read self._process twice; a concurrent
  unload() nulls it under the lock while loaded_model/device read lock-free, so
  a null between the two reads called None.poll(). Snapshot once. Adds a
  deterministic regression test.

* studio: tighten comments and docstrings in the dictation modules

* studio: harden dictation model downloads, GGML readiness, and recording paths

Address review findings on the STT dictation feature:

- build_whisper_cpp.sh refuses to delete a whisper.cpp tree under a custom
  Studio home unless it carries the Studio ownership marker, matching the
  setup.sh policy, and marks trees it creates
- _snapshot_is_complete validates every shard of a sharded PyTorch
  (pytorch_model.bin.index.json) checkpoint like the safetensors path, and
  requires tokenizer assets (tokenizer.json or vocab.json + merges.txt)
- custom-repo downloads pin the revision resolved at validation time and
  restrict snapshot_download to the model/tokenizer/config/preprocessor file
  classes Studio loads
- the GGML sidecar holds its port reservation until just before spawning
  whisper-server and only accepts readiness from a responder that both looks
  like whisper.cpp's server and belongs to the still-running managed child,
  probing twice, so mic audio cannot be posted to a foreign local process
- the recording adapter transcribes every non-empty segment; the RMS meter
  only shapes segment boundaries and can no longer discard quiet speech
- Compare-pane dictation can cancel a pending transcription on second click,
  with the button relabeled while finalizing
- localStorage quota recovery halves the dictation history until the save
  fits, so small histories shrink too
- the System default TTS voice resolves to the platform default voice
- new dictation UI imports go through the chat and hub feature barrels

Regression tests cover the build-script gate, sharded PyTorch and tokenizer
completeness, revision pinning and allow patterns, and the whisper-server
readiness probe.

* Add dictation button regression coverage

* Studio: prebuilt whisper.cpp via the shared llama.cpp install core, slim bundles paired to the llama prebuilt (#7294)

* Studio STT: add prebuilt whisper.cpp (whisper-server) installer

New install_whisper_prebuilt.py downloads a per-platform whisper-server
bundle published by the unslothai/whisper.cpp prebuilt CI into the managed
whisper.cpp dir (build/bin/whisper-server) so local dictation needs no
compiler. Mirrors install_node_prebuilt.py / install_llama_prebuilt.py:
host + backend detection, sha256 pins (whisper_prebuilt_pins.json) as the
trust anchor, staging + install lock + atomic swap, traversal-safe extract,
co-located shared libs (RUNPATH=$ORIGIN), an UNSLOTH_WHISPER_PREBUILT_INFO.json
marker with idempotent "already matches", and exit codes 0/1/2/3. Not wired
into setup yet; the pins ship empty so every asset fails closed until the
first fork release is published and its digests are reviewed in.

* Studio STT: install prebuilt whisper.cpp during setup and update

Add a fail-open whisper.cpp block to setup.sh after the llama.cpp section so
`unsloth studio update` (and a fresh install) fetch the prebuilt whisper-server
into the managed whisper.cpp dir the sidecar discovers. It skips a user-set
WHISPER_SERVER_PATH/UNSLOTH_WHISPER_CPP_PATH, honors UNSLOTH_SKIP_WHISPER_INSTALL,
forwards the resolved ROCm gfx, and never aborts setup: a busy install keeps the
existing runtime, and an unavailable prebuilt stays quiet (source build is opt-in
via UNSLOTH_WHISPER_FORCE_COMPILE) since Transformers STT and browser dictation
remain. Register UNSLOTH_WHISPER_PREBUILT_INFO.json as Studio-owned evidence.

* Studio STT: harden whisper-server child env + WSL ROCm detection

- Sidecar spawns whisper-server with a scrubbed child env that prepends the
  binary dir (co-located GPU libs) to the loader path, and on WSL2 ROCm loads
  the system HIP first (HSA_ENABLE_DXG_DETECTION=1) so a bundle's bare-metal HIP
  does not segfault on /dev/dxg. Secret-bearing vars are dropped from the child.
- find_whisper_server_binary now requires an executable, not just a file.
- Installer rocm probe passes HSA_ENABLE_DXG_DETECTION and falls back to
  /opt/rocm/bin/rocminfo so a WSL ROCm host is not misdetected as CPU-only;
  gfx parsing skips the gfx000 CPU agent and generic ISA lines.
- Tests for the child env (secret scrub, lib dir, WSL HIP precedence), the
  executable check, and the WSL rocm detection.

* Studio STT: in-app whisper.cpp prebuilt update stack + ship pins in the wheel

Mirror the llama.cpp update stack for the whisper.cpp prebuilt so Studio can
detect and install a newer whisper-server release from inside the app:
- backend/utils/whisper_cpp_freshness.py: read UNSLOTH_WHISPER_PREBUILT_INFO.json
  and compare the installed release against the newest unslothai/whisper.cpp
  release. Whisper tags are v<upstream>-unsloth.<N>, so is_behind compares a
  (major, minor, patch, serial) key with a strict downgrade guard; 24h cache;
  fail-open.
- backend/utils/whisper_cpp_update.py: run install_whisper_prebuilt.py to fetch
  and atomically swap the newest bundle, unloading the warm GGUF sidecar first.
- backend/routes/whisper.py mounted at /api/whisper (update-status + update).
- pyproject: add whisper_prebuilt_pins.json to studio package-data so the
  installer's trust anchor ships in the wheel (it is a data file, not a .py
  module, so package discovery alone does not include it; node_prebuilt_pins.json
  is listed for the same reason). Without this a pip-installed wheel had no pins
  and the prebuilt install aborted to Transformers STT.
Adds test_whisper_cpp_freshness.py (version parser, is_behind matrix + downgrade
guard, marker layouts, stale decision, fail-open).

* Studio STT: verify whisper prebuilts via the release checksum index, like llama.cpp

Re-align the whisper.cpp prebuilt installer to install_llama_prebuilt.py's trust
model: instead of a committed whisper_prebuilt_pins.json, verify every download
against the release's own whisper-prebuilt-sha256.json checksum index, fetched
from the same GitHub release.

- parse_release_checksums / fetch_release_checksums / expected_sha256_for replace
  the pins layer. The index is validated for schema/component and that its
  release_tag matches the resolved release; an asset absent from it, a release
  that does not publish it, or a manifest sha256 that disagrees with it all fail
  closed to a source build.
- resolve_release_tag now resolves the newest published release at runtime (or an
  explicit --published-release-tag), matching llama and the freshness check;
  removed the pinned-default and the UNSLOTH_WHISPER_ALLOW_UNVERIFIED opt-in.
- Delete studio/whisper_prebuilt_pins.json and drop its pyproject package-data
  entry (nothing to ship now, same as llama which has no committed pins).
- Adds test_install_whisper_prebuilt_checksums.py (index parser, fail-closed on
  uncovered asset, tampered-manifest guard, newest-release resolution).

This is a same-origin checksum (integrity, not authenticity), identical to the
llama.cpp installer; pair releases with GitHub artifact attestations for provenance.

* Resolve whisper prebuilt release via the download host (no GitHub API)

Mirror install_llama_prebuilt.py's fast path: resolve the release tag from
the releases/latest redirect and fetch the manifest + checksum index from
constructed releases/download URLs, so the common install path makes zero
api.github.com calls (unauthenticated api.github.com is capped at 60 req/hour
per IP; the download host is not). Fall back to the GitHub API only on a 404,
malformed asset, or tag mismatch.

* Studio STT: coverage-aware whisper prebuilt selection via a shared core

whisper's select_artifact returned the first os/arch/backend manifest match and
ignored the SM-coverage fields the release manifest already carries, so a
Blackwell B200 (sm_100) was served cuda12-legacy (sms 50-61) -- runnable only via
forward PTX JIT. install_llama_prebuilt.py on the same host correctly picks
cuda13-newer.

Extract the coverage-aware selection into a shared, component-agnostic core under
studio/backend/utils/prebuilt/ (selection + GPU host-capability detection), lifted
from llama's linux_cuda_choice_from_release / _artifact_covers_sms / _sm_range and
generalised over a normalised artifact. whisper's HostInfo now records the GPU
compute caps + driver CUDA version (honoring CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES), and
select_artifact routes CUDA/ROCm through the shared selector: every visible SM
must be covered, the tightest-covering profile wins (Blackwell-aware runtime-line
ordering), ROCm matches the gfx target exactly, and an uncovered GPU falls back to
the CPU bundle. CPU/Metal/Vulkan keep first-match. The resolver JSON, exit codes,
and "already matches" contract are unchanged.

On the B200 the installer now resolves cuda13-newer, matching llama.

* Studio STT: gate whisper CUDA selection on the on-disk runtime, like llama

The prebuilt CUDA bundles are dynamically linked and intentionally do NOT ship
libcudart/libcublas -- they load the same runtime the host already has. So the
driver's advertised CUDA version is only an upper bound: a cuda13 bundle still
needs cuda13 runtime libraries present on disk. Port llama's on-disk runtime
scan (detected_linux_runtime_lines / detected_windows_runtime_lines) into the
shared core and intersect it with the driver-compatible lines in
select_cuda_attempts. A host with a cuda13 driver but only cuda12 runtime (e.g.
torch-cuda12) now correctly gets a cuda12 bundle instead of an unloadable cuda13
one; a host with no CUDA runtime at all falls back to CPU.

Fixes a glob bug in the port (any(Path(d).glob(p) for d in dirs) tests generator
truthiness, not a match) that made every major report present; add a real
filesystem test that exercises the scan.

* studio: harden shared prebuilt core to full llama parity

Apply the review findings on the shared coverage-aware prebuilt-consumer
core so whisper.cpp selection is exactly equivalent to the llama.cpp path.

hosts.py: port llama's CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES handling. A GPU hidden by an
index/UUID selector now reports has_usable_nvidia False instead of staying
usable, via supports_explicit_visible_device_matching plus the physical /
explicit-match branches, and _select_visible_rows now matches rows the way
llama does (index or UUID, gpu- prefix optional) and skips unmatched tokens
rather than keeping all rows. Adds the Linux /proc/driver/nvidia/gpus
fallback and has_physical_nvidia. Adds parse_macos_version.

runtime_libs.py: the Linux on-disk scan now requires the exact libcudart /
libcublas SONAME (libcudart.so.13), not a libcudart.so.13* glob, so a bare
versioned file without the SONAME symlink no longer counts as loadable.
Hardens the ldconfig parse against an empty left-hand side.

selection.py: fix the Blackwell/torch reordering so it keys on the covering
runtime lines (falls through to the torch preference when the covering lines
were filtered out), matching linux_cuda_choice_from_release. Corrects the
compatible_runtime_lines_for_driver docstring: the bundles do not ship the
CUDA runtime, so the driver version is only an upper bound and the caller
must intersect with the on-disk scan.

install_whisper_prebuilt.py: enforce a macOS artifact's min_os (new
HostInfo.macos_version) so a bundle that cannot load on the host OS version
is dropped. Keep resolver stdout to only the JSON line by leaving logs on
stderr in --resolve-prebuilt mode, and map an unexpected probe failure to
prebuilt_available False instead of a traceback.

Tests: new host-probe suite for the visible-device logic, exact-SONAME
runtime-scan cases, macOS min_os filtering, resolver stdout-only-JSON,
exit-code mapping, and the repo key.

* studio: fix whisper prebuilt selection + launch parity gaps from review

A parallel review surfaced integration defects where the whisper path could
select or launch a bundle that cannot run on a concrete host. Each is fixed to
match install_llama_prebuilt.py.

macOS min_os: the manifest labels macOS requirements as macos-<version>
(e.g. macos-14.0), which the version parser could not read, so the guard was a
no-op and a macOS-13 host would install the macos-14 Metal bundle. Strip the
platform prefix before parsing.

ROCm gfx detection: _detect_rocm_gfx returned the first gfx token and ignored
HIP_VISIBLE_DEVICES / ROCR_VISIBLE_DEVICES / CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES. Since exact
ROCm matching treats that token as the active GPU, a mixed APU + dGPU host
(gfx1151 + gfx1100) with HIP_VISIBLE_DEVICES=1 installed the wrong archive. Route
through a shared pick_rocm_gfx_target (lifted from llama) that parses per-GPU
sections and honors the visibility vars (empty / -1 -> no AMD GPU).

--rocm-gfx override: recording the arch without setting has_rocm left the host on
its CUDA/CPU path so the ROCm bundle was never picked. --rocm-gfx now implies
has_rocm and clears NVIDIA state, like llama's _apply_host_overrides.

CUDA launch env: a CUDA bundle ships the ggml CUDA backend but not
libcudart/libcublas, and the sidecar launch env exposed only the bundle dir, so
on a host whose CUDA runtime lives only in the PyTorch wheels the selection would
gate cuda usable but the server could not load it. Add the CUDA-from-PyTorch
runtime dirs to the child loader path for CUDA bundles (bundle dir still first),
mirroring binary_env.

Also normalize a manifest artifact's supported_sms defensively (parity with
llama's parser) and document that blackwell_min_toolkit_for_caps is retained for
the Phase B llama Windows path.

Not changed (verified parity, not defects): Linux/Windows min_os is enforced
nowhere in llama (macOS only); the resolver is optimistic about the checksum
index and the install path verifies.

* studio: tighten prebuilt-core code comments

* studio: lift shared prebuilt installer core out of the whisper installer

* studio: reuse the llama.cpp prebuilt installer machinery for whisper

* studio: unify llama and whisper prebuilt installers on a shared descriptor core

* studio: consolidate prebuilt installer tests into the shared core suite

Grow tests/studio/install/test_prebuilt_core.py from 62 to 164 tests so every
component-agnostic behavior runs against both descriptors: the full seven
profile CUDA release matrix (multi-GPU, on-disk runtime gating, shuffle
stability, missing SM metadata, dotted SM normalization, no-driver fallback
policy), the ROCm gfx family matrix, macOS min_os gating and its helper,
backend resolution incl. cpu-fallback precedence and Intel-mac auto detect,
checksum-index non-object and plain-lookup cases, the tar symlink/hardlink
extraction guards moved from the llama suite, and the compute-cap, visible
device, runtime-line and Blackwell helper value tables moved verbatim from
the llama characterization suites.

Delete only tests whose exact behavior the master now asserts for the same
component: 40 pure-alias helper cases in test_selection_logic.py (replaced by
value-identical master tables plus an alias-identity pin), 6 extraction moves
and the master-absorbed zip-symlink case in the llama logic suite, 3 routing
twins in test_rocm_support.py already pinned byte-for-byte in
test_selection_logic.py, the 2 Blackwell helper tables in the backend resolve
suite, 28 whisper logic tests and 10 whisper checksum tests re-asserted by
the master whisper parameterization. Wrapper wiring pins, the llama release
plan dialect, fingerprints and every llama-only behavior stay untouched.

* studio: dedupe sidecar and update helpers into the backend prebuilt package

* studio: chain whisper.cpp prebuilt updates onto the llama.cpp update flow

* studio: consume paired slim whisper prebuilts via the llama ggml runtime

* studio: serve every whisper backend from slim prebuilts

* studio: drop the whisper fat per-accelerator selection chain

unslothai/whisper.cpp releases are slim-only from v1.9.1-unsloth.2: one
ggml-less bundle per os/arch, paired to the llama.cpp prebuilt that provides
every ggml backend. Delete the whisper-side fat CUDA/ROCm/metal/vulkan
selection glue; keep slim selection + pairing, link_ggml_runtime, and one
legacy shape, the published fat CPU bundle of an explicitly pinned pre-slim
release. Exit 2 now reads as prebuilt unavailable (whisper never source
builds); setup already treats it that way.

* [pre-commit.ci] auto fixes from pre-commit.com hooks

for more information, see https://pre-commit.ci

* Wire libomp runtime DLL alongside ggml in slim whisper installs

llama's clang-built windows-arm64 ggml-base.dll imports
libomp140.aarch64.dll, shipped in the llama bundle but not a system DLL.
Without it next to whisper-server.exe the loader fails with
STATUS_DLL_NOT_FOUND before main. MSVC x64 links vcomp140.dll from
System32 and Linux ggml uses system libgomp.so.1, so only windows-arm64
was affected. The empty-runtime guard still requires a real ggml
library; libomp alone is not a pairing.

* studio: drop whisper-side fat-selection support structure

Slim whisper bundles are selected per os/arch only; all accelerator
capability comes from the installed llama.cpp prebuilt, whose installer
already did the coverage-aware selection. Remove the machinery that only
existed to pick among fat per-accelerator whisper bundles:

- prebuilt_core: delete the generic CUDA/ROCm coverage selection
  (select_cuda_artifact, select_rocm_artifact, ArtifactView adapters,
  detected_cuda_runtime_lines, the exact-SONAME linux probe) that no
  shipped component routes through; llama keeps its own selection chain
  and whisper shadows select_artifact with the slim-only version.
  select_artifact is now a plain os/arch/backend first-match.
- install_whisper_prebuilt: drop the HostInfo CUDA fields
  (compute_caps, driver_cuda_version, torch_runtime_line) and the torch
  runtime probe that populated them; nothing reachable reads them, and
  the resolver payload sources runtime_line from the artifact.
- whisper_cpp_update: delete the standalone start_update job worker;
  whisper applies only run as the chained phase of the combined
  llama+whisper update. The status payload keeps its job field (idle).
- routes/whisper: drop the progress logger that could never fire.
- tests: remove tests of the deleted paths and tests duplicating the
  descriptor-parameterized core suite or the llama freshness suite.

Contracts unchanged: resolver JSON keys, exit codes, marker fields,
pairing logs, and the pinned pre-slim fat CPU escape hatch.

* Address review feedback on the whisper prebuilt update and install paths

- Pin the chained whisper phase to the release the freshness check
  offered, so the download-host latest pointer cannot reinstall an
  older build in a loop
- Wire the whisper prebuilt install into setup.ps1 (Windows setup
  previously skipped it entirely)
- Treat a non-executable server or missing wired ggml libraries as a
  broken install instead of reporting already matches
- Keep whisper sidecar reloads out of the job-level reload flag and
  resync chat state after a partial chained update that unloaded llama
- Repoint home and profile vars for the whisper-server subprocess at a
  managed scratch dir and drop credential-store pointers
- Clear the prebuilt marker before the opt-in source build overwrite
- Write the prebuilt marker with explicit utf-8 encoding

* Tighten comments in the whisper prebuilt consumer

* Harden the Windows whisper setup phase and the chained update edges

- setup.ps1: honor WHISPER_SERVER_PATH / UNSLOTH_WHISPER_CPP_PATH /
  UNSLOTH_SKIP_WHISPER_INSTALL, run the custom-home ownership guard
  before the atomic install, and forward the release-tag pin and ROCm
  hints like setup.sh
- sidecar: a cpu-selected install launches whisper-server with --no-gpu
  (slim wiring links every llama backend, so the flag is what keeps a
  deliberate CPU choice off the GPU)
- chained update: leave whisper unpinned on macOS (the llama phase can
  walk back there, and a newest-tag pin could be an impossible pairing
  on every retry) and treat installer exit 2 as kept-existing-runtime
  instead of failing the combined job
- job.to_tag now comes only from the llama phase, so a whisper-only
  round cannot report a llama update that never ran

feat(studio): add UNSLOTH_LLAMA_CPP_BACKEND env var to force CPU fallback #7213 (#7228)
* test(studio): add e2e test for cpu-fallback overriding vulkan

* feat(studio): add UNSLOTH_LLAMA_CPP_BACKEND env var

* feat(studio): add UNSLOTH_LLAMA_CPP_BACKEND env var

* Preserve UNSLOTH_LLAMA_CPP_BACKEND=cpu across llama.cpp updates for PR #7228

The in-app updater rebuilt the installer command without --cpu-fallback and
only re-asserted Vulkan, so accepting a llama.cpp update after forcing CPU on
an Intel iGPU host re-ran host detection and routed back to the crashing Vulkan
bundle (#7213). Record install_kind in the prebuilt marker and re-assert
--cpu-fallback on update when the installed bundle is CPU.

Also make setup.sh's UNSLOTH_LLAMA_CPP_BACKEND check case-insensitive to match
setup.ps1, and add tests for the updater CPU preservation and the setup.sh flag
plumbing.

* [pre-commit.ci] auto fixes from pre-commit.com hooks

for more information, see https://pre-commit.ci

* Trim and validate UNSLOTH_LLAMA_CPP_BACKEND, warn on unknown values for PR #7228

Trim surrounding whitespace and lowercase the value in both setup.sh and
setup.ps1, so values like ' cpu ' or 'CPU' still force the CPU-only prebuilt.
An unrecognized value (e.g. 'gpu') now prints a warning instead of silently
falling back to auto. Extend test_setup_llama_cpp_backend.py to cover both
scripts, including trimmed, empty and unknown values.

* Preserve arm64 CPU installs on update and honor CPU override in Windows prune for PR #7228

The update-path CPU preservation only matched install_kind ending in -cpu, so
arm64 CPU bundles (linux-arm64, windows-arm64) were re-routed to a GPU or source
build on update. Match the full set of CPU-only kinds instead.

Persisting install_kind also activated the previously inert Windows
mismatch-prune in setup.ps1: on a GPU host with UNSLOTH_LLAMA_CPP_BACKEND=cpu it
saw the windows-cpu marker as mismatched and deleted it every rerun. Normalize
the override once and make CPU expected so a deliberate CPU install is kept.
Extend the tests to cover both.

* Document legacy llama.cpp markers keep heal-to-GPU on update for PR #7228

Legacy prebuilt markers written before install_kind was persisted intentionally
do not force --cpu-fallback on update: the in-app updater lets them re-resolve
(heal to a GPU bundle) per the existing behavior from #6097, and only markers
that explicitly record a CPU install_kind are pinned to CPU. Add a comment and a
regression case documenting the boundary.

* Tighten llama.cpp CPU-fallback comments for PR #7228

* Fix Windows install-prune to keep valid Intel/fallback bundles for PR #7228

Persisting install_kind activated the setup.ps1 mismatch-prune, whose
expectedKinds was incomplete: the non-NVIDIA/non-AMD branch omitted
windows-vulkan (the Intel auto-route) and the GPU branches omitted the
windows-cpu/windows-arm64 fallback the installer uses when a GPU prebuilt is
missing. That made every setup rerun delete and re-download a valid Intel Vulkan
(or CPU-fallback) install. List all kinds the installer can produce per host so
only a bundle the host cannot run is pruned. Cover the full matrix in tests.

* Persist force_cpu marker flag so only forced CPU installs re-assert on update for PR #7228

* Add --force-cpu for deliberate CPU installs and warn on macOS for PR #7228

* Record force_cpu when reusing a matching CPU bundle for PR #7228

* Accept force_cpu keyword in installer test validator fakes for PR #7228

Replace standalone Studio wording with Unsloth (#7221)
* Replace standalone Studio wording with Unsloth

Replace the single word Studio with Unsloth wherever it is used as
shorthand for Unsloth Studio in docs, CLI output, UI strings, i18n
locales, workflow display names, comments and docstrings.

Kept unchanged: the full name Unsloth Studio, third party product
names (LM Studio, Visual Studio, Mac Studio), feature names
(Recipe Studio, Fine-tuning Studio and its translations), and all
identifiers such as env vars, commands, paths and filenames.

* Address review feedback on the Studio wording rename

Use "an" before Unsloth where the rename left the article as "a".
Restore the split brand where Unsloth and Studio render as two halves
of the full product name: the onboarding sidebar subtitle and the
IPv6 localhost warning. Scope two messages to the full name Unsloth
Studio where plain Unsloth was misleading: the AMD README bullet and
the CLI studio setup error.

* Studio: pin llama.cpp update apply to the release the banner offered

* Document the pinned walk-back trade-off and cover win32

* Trim the pin comments

* Studio: verify a pinned llama.cpp update landed on the pinned release

The pin passes --published-release-tag so the installer resolves exactly the offered release. Also verify the result: if the post-install marker stays on the pinned repo but reports a different tag, the installer ignored the pin, so fail with a retryable error instead of a false success. A Vulkan/Intel host legitimately reroutes fork to upstream and drops the pin, so the check is scoped to the pinned repo.

plus discrete GPU host that could raise a spurious system-RAM shortfall

[Studio] Add --with-llama-cpp-dir installer flag to reuse a local llama.cpp (#6472)
* Add --with-llama-cpp-dir flag to install.ps1 and install.sh

Users can now pass --with-llama-cpp-dir /path/to/llama.cpp to the
installer to skip downloading or building llama.cpp and use a local
directory instead. A junction (Windows) or symlink (Linux/macOS) is
created at the canonical install location, bypassing both the prebuilt
download (Phase 3) and source build (Phase 4) steps in setup.ps1/setup.sh.

The path is passed via UNSLOTH_LOCAL_LLAMA_CPP_DIR env var which
setup.ps1 and setup.sh read directly.

Ported from the idea in unslothai/unsloth#4384, reimplemented against
current Studio architecture.

* test: add static wiring test for --with-llama-cpp-dir flag

Cross-checks install.sh, install.ps1, studio/setup.sh and studio/setup.ps1
so the flag's contract (parse -> UNSLOTH_LOCAL_LLAMA_CPP_DIR env var -> link
local dir, skip prebuilt download and source build) can't silently regress.
Wired into studio-backend-ci.yml alongside the other tests/sh installer tests.

* Address review feedback on --with-llama-cpp-dir flag

- setup.ps1: delete an existing junction/symlink via DirectoryInfo.Delete()
  instead of a recursive remove, which can traverse the link and wipe the
  user's real llama.cpp directory on PowerShell 5.1.
- setup.ps1: short-circuit the build chain when a local dir is linked so CMake
  never runs inside the user's checkout when it lacks a Windows-layout binary.
- install.sh / setup.sh: resolve paths with CDPATH= cd -P so a set CDPATH
  cannot corrupt the resolved path.
- install.sh: seed _WITH_LLAMA_CPP_DIR from UNSLOTH_LOCAL_LLAMA_CPP_DIR so an
  exported env var (piped-install style) is honored instead of being clobbered.
- setup.sh: create the root llama-quantize shim when linking a local source
  build so GGUF export's check_llama_cpp() still finds it.
- setup.sh / setup.ps1: drop a stale link before the custom-home ownership
  assert so re-runs with the flag stay idempotent.
- test: pin the new linked-dir build short-circuit.

* Harden --with-llama-cpp-dir against Codex/Gemini review findings

- install.sh: error when --with-llama-cpp-dir is the final arg with no path,
  matching the existing --package/--python post-loop guards (was a silent
  fallback to the normal prebuilt/source install).
- studio/setup.sh: canonicalize LLAMA_CPP_DIR before the self-link no-op
  compare. _RESOLVED_LOCAL is fully resolved while LLAMA_CPP_DIR was textual,
  so a symlinked $HOME made the guard miss and the rm -rf could wipe the
  user's real llama.cpp tree.
- studio/setup.sh: make the llama-quantize shim non-fatal; it writes through
  the link into the user's tree, which may be read-only (shared/CI cache),
  and under set -e a failed ln aborted an otherwise-good reuse.
- studio/setup.ps1: detect a broken junction via Get-Item -Force instead of
  Test-Path so a dangling link from a prior run is removed and mklink can
  relink to a new valid directory.
- studio/setup.ps1: use Copy-Item -LiteralPath so a source path containing
  [ ] isn't treated as a wildcard in the junction copy fallback.
- tests: update the wiring assertions for the LiteralPath copy and the
  canonicalized compare.

* Validate/reuse local llama.cpp tree and guard the in-use case

Addresses the second Codex pass on the --with-llama-cpp-dir flag:

- Validate the linked tree before disabling installs (setup.sh + setup.ps1):
  reusing a local dir skips BOTH the prebuilt download and the source build,
  so the dir must already contain a runnable llama-server (build/bin on
  Linux/macOS, build\bin\Release\llama-server.exe on Windows). Bail out with a
  clear message instead of linking an unbuilt/wrong-platform checkout and
  leaving Studio with no usable binary.
- Treat a canonical-path target as already linked when it holds a build
  (setup.sh + setup.ps1): point the flag at ~/.unsloth/llama.cpp itself and an
  existing build is reused (skip prebuilt + source) rather than clobbered by
  the staged prebuilt installer (which uses os.replace()/replace). An empty
  canonical dir still falls through to the normal in-place install.
- Abort when an in-use llama.cpp can't be removed on Windows (setup.ps1):
  Remove-Item -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue can silently leave a locked tree
  in place; detect that and stop with the same active-process message + exit 3
  the prebuilt path uses, instead of junctioning over a half-present dir.

Left as follow-up (already tracked by the PR author as a non-blocker): the
in-app "Update llama.cpp" updater does not yet recognize a local-link install
as externally managed; that fix belongs in studio/backend/utils/llama_cpp_update.py.

* Accept all backend llama-server layouts in --with-llama-cpp-dir validation

The linked-tree validation only accepted build/bin[/Release]/llama-server, but
LlamaCppBackend._layout_candidates() resolves a root-level llama-server first,
then build/bin, then build/bin/Release on Windows. A `make` build or a flat
release extract (binary at the dir root) was therefore rejected with a hard
installer failure even though Studio would have run it.

Validate the same candidate set the backend uses in both setup scripts, and add
wiring-test assertions so the check can't silently narrow again.

* Treat --with-llama-cpp-dir local links as externally managed

A --with-llama-cpp-dir install junctions/symlinks the canonical llama.cpp dir to
the user's own checkout, but two backend paths still treated it as a Studio-owned
tree:

- The in-app updater (llama_cpp_update) offered and could apply an official
  prebuilt over the link, writing through it into the user's checkout (or
  failing) and silently dropping the link the flag created.
- Orphan cleanup (LlamaCppBackend._kill_orphaned_servers) resolved the linked
  root into its kill allowlist, so a llama-server the user launched from the same
  checkout was classified as ours and killed on startup.

Detect the canonical dir being a symlink/junction (reparse point) and treat the
install as unmanaged: get_update_status reports unsupported, start_update refuses
with reason "local_link", and the linked root is left out of the orphan
allowlist. Adds behavioral tests (link vs plain dir, updater refusal, and the
spared-vs-killed orphan control).

for more information, see https://pre-commit.ci

* Add behavioral shell test for --with-llama-cpp-dir linking

The existing tests/sh/test_with_llama_cpp_dir_flag.sh is a static grep of the
scripts. This adds a behavioral test that extracts the real link block from
studio/setup.sh (by content anchors, with a self-validating extraction) and runs
it against hermetic fake dirs, asserting the outcomes that matter:

- an external CMake build links and arms neither the prebuilt download nor the
  source build
- a flat / make tree (root-level llama-server, no build/bin) is accepted too
- an unbuilt tree is rejected with a non-zero exit and no link left behind
- relinking over a stale link preserves the target's contents (no data loss)
- pointing at the canonical path is a no-op reuse, not a self-referential link

Symlink-identity checks run only where real symlinks exist (skipped on Windows
git-bash copy-mode); the link/skip/no-data-loss checks run everywhere. Wired into
studio-backend-ci.yml next to the static test.

* Install psutil in backend CI so orphan-cleanup tests run

The new orphan-cleanup tests import psutil for the process scan, but the Backend
CI deps step installed studio.txt plus a fixed extras list that omits it, so the
two tests failed with ModuleNotFoundError. Add psutil to both backend pytest dep
steps (kept in shared shape), and guard the import with pytest.importorskip so a
minimal env without psutil skips these tests instead of erroring.

Studio: fix llama.cpp update toast tag and reload hint (#6493)
* Studio: fix llama.cpp update toast tag and reload hint

The post-update toast used the job's to_tag, which is the bare bNNNN build
number (same as installed_tag), so it showed e.g. "b9726" instead of the full
release tag. Use status.latest_tag (e.g. b9726-mix-<sha>) to match the tag the
banner already shows, falling back to to_tag and then a generic label.

Also drop "Reload your model to use it." when there is nothing to reload: only
append it when a local model is loaded, since external-provider models do not
use llama.cpp.

Reap Studio child processes when the parent dies abnormally (#6425)
* Reap Studio child processes when the parent dies abnormally

Standalone `unsloth studio` launches orphaned cloudflared and llama-server when
the parent exited without running the cooperative shutdown path (terminal-window
close, Task Manager End Task, SIGKILL): the children reparented to init and kept
running, leaving an authenticated Cloudflare tunnel up for days.

Add utils/process_lifetime.py: a parent-owned Windows Job Object
(JOB_OBJECT_LIMIT_KILL_ON_JOB_CLOSE, children auto-inherit) plus Linux
PR_SET_PDEATHSIG, behind a best-effort helper that mirrors the desktop app's
windows_job.rs. initialize_parent_lifetime() runs at the top of run_server;
long-lived spawns (cloudflared, llama-server, RAG embedder, llama.cpp updater)
get the PDEATHSIG preexec, multiprocessing workers are adopted into the job, and
_graceful_shutdown plus atexit gain a terminate_all() backstop sweep. The
cooperative shutdown path is otherwise unchanged.

Verified on Linux: killing the parent now reaps cloudflared and llama-server
within ~2s instead of orphaning them.

* [pre-commit.ci] auto fixes from pre-commit.com hooks

for more information, see https://pre-commit.ci

* test: add real Windows kill-on-job-close integration test

Spawn a parent that installs the job and a child that inherits it, terminate
the parent, and assert the child is reaped. Skipped off Windows. Also make the
liveness probe Windows-safe (os.kill(pid, 0) terminates on Windows).

* Fix Win64 handle truncation in the Job Object calls

Set explicit argtypes so the 64-bit job/process handles are not marshaled as
c_int (which truncated them on Win64, failing AssignProcessToJobObject). Assert
install success in the Windows integration test.

* Bind multiprocessing workers to parent death; harden the sweep

Review follow-ups:
- Multiprocessing workers (inference/export/training/data-recipe/Xet) cannot be
  given a preexec_fn by the parent, so adopt_pid alone left them orphanable on a
  Linux SIGKILL. They now bind themselves with PR_SET_PDEATHSIG at startup via
  bind_current_process_to_parent_lifetime(), wired into the shared
  run_without_native_path_secret entrypoint and the Xet child entry.
- Wire the previously-missed data-recipe worker through adopt_pid.
- terminate_all now honors its timeout: SIGTERM, wait, then SIGKILL the
  survivors, so cooperative children can exit cleanly.
- Track adopted pids with a /proc starttime identity and add forget_pid, so the
  shutdown sweep never signals a recycled pid.

Studio: stop the llama.cpp update banner flickering and show the download size (#6338)
* Studio: stop the llama.cpp update banner flickering and show the download size

The banner animated in and out with a motion opacity + scale + translate
transition. That transform/opacity transition promotes a GPU compositing
layer whose first and last frame can flash for a moment on real displays,
which reads as a flicker on appear and again on dismiss/snooze. Drop the
animation and render the banner as a plain conditional mount: it appears
and leaves cleanly with nothing to flash.

Also surface the download size. update-status now reports the size of the
prebuilt that Update would fetch (the latest-release asset matching this
host's bundle), and the banner shows it as whole MB next to the no-restart
note, so the cost of the update is clear before clicking.

* [pre-commit.ci] auto fixes from pre-commit.com hooks

for more information, see https://pre-commit.ci

* Show llama.cpp update size for upstream and source-build installs

update_download_size_bytes now accepts the upstream ggml-org ubuntu-/win-
asset suffixes and falls back to the marker's binary_repo, so the size
resolves for CPU/ROCm prebuilts (the fork publish repo only carries the
app-* and macOS bundles). The source-build update path now populates
update_size_bytes from the resolved asset, matching the marker path.

Both fail open to null. Adds regression tests for the upstream and
source-build size lookups and the route field round-trip.

Studio: offer llama.cpp update for same-base mix builds on source installs (#6280)
The update banner is driven by update_available from
/api/llama/update-status. Prebuilt (marker) installs decide this via
freshness.is_behind, which is mix-aware: a release at the same upstream
base build but with a new -mix-<sha> suffix counts as behind.

Source-build installs went through _source_build_status, which compared
only the numeric base build (installed_build < latest_build). When a new
prebuilt shared the installed upstream base (our usual mix re-tag at the
same base), it returned update_available=False and the banner never
showed. This is the common macOS case, where a failed prebuilt fetch
falls back to a source build that lacks the mix patches.

Make the source-build path mix-aware to match the marker path: same base
plus a -mix-<sha> tag now offers the update (and displays the mix tag),
a bare same-base rebuild does not, and the downgrade guard and unknown
-version fallback are unchanged.

Studio: drop the on-disk freshness cache after a llama.cpp update (#6234)
The post-install path cleared only the in-memory freshness caches and then
re-primed the 24h disk cache with a forced GitHub refresh. When that refresh
cannot reach GitHub, latest_published_release falls back to the last-good disk
value, so a still-fresh same-base mix tag cached before the swap (b9596-mix-aaa
vs the just-installed b9596-mix-bbb) is replayed and the prebuilt reads as
behind, surfacing a false update banner that points back at the build that was
just replaced.

Give reset_caches a drop_disk option and use it on the update path: with the
disk cache gone, an offline post-install refresh leaves latest as None and the
banner fails open (off) instead of lingering on the stale same-base value. The
no-arg form stays in-memory only. Adds regression coverage for the drop, the
default no-op, and the fail-open vs stale-replay contrast.

Studio: llama.cpp update banner redesign, About tab license info, UI polish (#6196)
* Studio: llama.cpp update banner redesign, About tab license info, inline system prompt editing, naming cleanup

- Redesign the llama.cpp update banner to match the chat composer surface
  (borderless rounded card, composer shadow, Hellix Medium title), rename
  actions to Update and add a 15 minute Remind me later snooze
- Keep the banner up until the user explicitly acts on it; drop the
  outside click dismissal
- Add a Settings > General > Notifications toggle to disable the banner
  for training-only setups (on by default)
- Rename the Help settings tab to About and add a License section
  (Unsloth Studio AGPL-3.0, Unsloth Core Apache-2.0) linking to the
  license files in this repo
- Make the run settings system prompt box an inline editable textarea;
  the popup editor opens when the prompt overflows the box
- Pointer cursor on the preset dropdown chevron
- Dark mode toasts use the chat composer surface color
- Replace standalone Studio with Unsloth in user facing strings; keep
  Unsloth Studio, LM Studio, Fine-tuning Studio, Recipe Studio and CLI
  commands unchanged

* Studio: open the system prompt popup on box click, balance banner padding

- The system prompt box opens the Edit System Prompt dialog on click,
  matching the pencil action
- Slightly more bottom padding on the llama.cpp update banner so the
  spacing reads even next to the action pills

* Studio: replace unsloth studio update with the installer commands in update guidance

- The unsloth studio update command no longer works, so the About tab
  update section now shows the one-line installer (curl or irm) for
  PyPI and unknown installs, and git pull plus the local installer for
  checkouts
- Add a short note that unsloth studio update is no longer supported
- Link the Installation, Updating and Windows install docs pages
- The package update banner now copies the platform installer command
  instead of unsloth studio update

* Studio: rounder account menu, inline system prompt box with popup from the label

- Account menu corners go from 14px to 18px via a specific override,
  since list menus pin border-radius globally
- llama.cpp banner bottom padding 22px
- System prompt is an inline editable textarea again; clicking the
  System Prompt label opens the popup editor, and an overflowing
  prompt opens it on box click

* Studio: show the standard install commands in the About update section

- Both one-line install commands (MacOS/Linux/WSL and Windows
  PowerShell) are always shown, labeled like the docs, since running
  them again updates an existing install
- Drop the unsloth studio update deprecation note
- Add the Mac install guide to the docs links

* Studio: clearer platform toggle and layout in the About update section

- Section heading is Update
- Platform picker is a pair of pill buttons, MacOS / Linux and Windows,
  and only the selected platform's install command is shown
- Intro reads: To install or update Unsloth
- Local update heading separates checkout guidance from the standard
  install command

* Studio: report GitHub branch instead of dev for source checkouts

A source checkout not on an exact release tag now shows
GitHub <branch> (e.g. GitHub main) as the Studio version in About.
Detached or unusual HEADs still fall back to dev.

* Studio: tighten the About update section copy and toggle styling

- Platform toggle buttons are borderless pills
- Shorter local update wording and restart note
- Docs links read Mac and Windows

* Studio: tighten line spacing in the sidebar account button

* Studio: fix vanishing compact MCP icon on hover, single line pill tooltips

- Compact caret pills (MCP, RAG) keep their icon on hover for inactive
  pills too; the off switch hover rules hid the icon while compact mode
  hid the X, leaving an empty slot
- Compact icon tooltips and single line compact tooltips render as full
  pills; wrapped tooltips keep the 9px corners. TooltipContent measures
  line count in a ref callback since Radix mounts portal content
  without re-rendering the wrapper
- 1px gap between the name and Unsloth lines in the sidebar account
  button

* Studio: Projects hover plus button, align recents with the label

- Hovering the Projects nav item reveals a plus button that opens the
  New project dialog, with the same circular hover treatment as the
  chat row actions
- Recent chat titles start at the same x as the Recents label
- The system prompt overflow lock only engages for a non-empty prompt
  with a laid-out box, so a mis-measure cannot turn clicks into the
  popup

* Clip system prompt overflow inside the rounded box

Wrap the inline system prompt textarea in a rounded overflow-hidden
surface so scrolled text and the scrollbar stay inside the box. The
focus ring moves to the wrapper via focus-within.

* Add updating progress bar to llama banner and shorten settings copy

While an update is applying, the banner action row becomes an
indeterminate progress bar that keeps animating under reduced motion,
matching the other loading indicators. Settings descriptions across
General, Profile, Appearance, Chat, Connections, API, and About are
trimmed without losing meaning.

* Address review: desktop update note, server platform detection, zh-CN keys

The About tab no longer shows terminal install commands in the desktop
app, where the bundled backend updates through the built-in updater;
it shows a short note and the docs links instead.

fetchDeviceType now sends the auth token to /api/health, which only
reports the server platform to authed callers, and caches only a
server-reported value. Copied install commands then match the host
platform rather than the browser when they differ (WSL, SSH).

zh-CN gains translations for the new notification and license keys,
the renamed About tab title, and the desktop update note.

* Real download progress for llama.cpp updates, prompt and sidebar polish

The update worker now streams the installer output and parses its
download percent lines into job progress, exposed via the update-status
API. The installer emits finer non-tty milestones when
UNSLOTH_PROGRESS_PERCENT_STEP is set; the worker requests 5 percent
steps. The banner renders a determinate bar from the reported fraction
and falls back to the sweep until the first percent arrives.

Also removes the focus ring on the inline system prompt box and
slightly shrinks the Projects hover plus icon.

Studio: offer the in-app llama.cpp update for source-build (markerless) installs (#6188)
* Studio: offer the in-app llama.cpp update for source-build (markerless) installs

Source-build installs have no UNSLOTH_PREBUILT_INFO.json marker, so freshness
reported supported=False and the Update button never showed (notably on macOS,
where the fork shipped no prebuilt before b9585 and setup fell back to a source
build). When an install has no marker but an official prebuilt now exists for
the host, surface the update and let one click swap it in place.

- install_llama_prebuilt.py: published_repo_for_host() (the setup.sh host->repo
  rule in Python) and a --resolve-prebuilt mode that reports whether a prebuilt
  exists for this host without downloading.
- llama_cpp_update.py: markerless branch in get_update_status/start_update,
  version-suppressed so source builds already newer than latest are not nagged;
  fail-open throughout.

* [pre-commit.ci] auto fixes from pre-commit.com hooks

for more information, see https://pre-commit.ci

* Studio: run llama update detection off the event loop, expose source_build

The markerless source-build check probes the host and reads GitHub, so run
get_update_status and start_update in a worker thread to keep the API
responsive. Expose source_build in the status response so the banner can label
the source-build switch.

* [pre-commit.ci] auto fixes from pre-commit.com hooks

for more information, see https://pre-commit.ci

* Keep the llama-route auth stub out of sys.modules for the rest of the suite

test_llama_route.py replaced sys.modules['auth.authentication'] with a
bare stub at collection time and never restored it, so every later test
importing create_access_token got the stub: 17 failures across
test_desktop_auth, test_middleware, test_openai_tool_passthrough and
test_rag_preview on all four Backend CI Python versions. Import the
real module when its deps are available and only stub in minimal envs,
popping the stubs after the standalone route load either way.

* Studio: address review on the source-build update path

- published_repo_for_host: route CPU-only Windows to ggml-org too (mirrors
  setup.ps1; the fork ships no win-cpu bundle), macOS always the fork.
- markerless detection compares/display the upstream llama_tag, not a possible
  fork wrapper release_tag, so a source build is not wrongly judged newer.
- do not offer when there is no resolvable install root (a pinned
  LLAMA_SERVER_PATH outside a managed dir): an apply would not take effect.

* Ignore version probes in the update tests' subprocess capture

The status polls in these tests trigger the new source-build detection,
which shells out to llama-server --version through the same patched
subprocess.run. On slow runners that probe lands after the installer
call and clobbers the single captured argv, failing the flag
assertions (seen on the 3.10/3.11 Backend CI jobs). Skip probe calls
in all three fakes so only the installer invocation is captured.

* Skip markerless re-detection while the update job is swapping the tree

On a source-build install the frontend polls update-status every 3s
during an apply, and each poll ran _source_build_status, which execs
the very llama-server binary the job is concurrently replacing. On
Windows that exec can hold the exe long enough to fail the installer's
os.replace; everywhere it is a per-poll subprocess spawn for a status
the poller does not read (it only consumes job progress). Gate the
markerless branch on the job not running; the marked path is probe-free
and still returns the live job state.

* Studio: tighten source-build update root, repo routing, and downgrade guard

Only manage a markerless install when the active binary lives under a
resolvable llama.cpp root (marker dir, UNSLOTH_LLAMA_CPP_PATH it sits in,
or a llama.cpp ancestor); a pinned LLAMA_SERVER_PATH or a PATH/system
binary is left alone so an apply cannot install where it would not take
effect. Gate start_update on the same suppression as detection so a
direct POST cannot downgrade a source build newer than the latest
prebuilt. Route Linux hosts with AMD tooling (rocminfo/amd-smi/hipconfig/
hipinfo) to the fork in --resolve-prebuilt, matching setup.sh, so a HIP
source build is not offered an upstream CPU prebuilt.

Studio: in-app Update llama.cpp button to install the latest prebuilt (#6097)
Adds an in-app "Update llama.cpp" banner and button to Unsloth Studio. When the installed prebuilt is behind the latest published release, a non-invasive banner appears; clicking Update downloads the latest prebuilt for this host and swaps it in place in the background, with no restart.

Detection reuses the freshness check from #5529. The update re-runs install_llama_prebuilt.py the same way setup.sh and setup.ps1 do after #5963: it forwards the published repo and the AMD gfx target derived from the install marker, and does not pass the removed --simple-policy or the arm64-only --cpu-fallback.

While the installer swaps binaries the backend enters a maintenance state (flag set under the serial load lock, active server unloaded) so a concurrent load cannot start a server from a half-swapped binary; the next load uses the new build. The banner also handles refused responses and jobs started in another tab so it never sticks on "Updating...".

Verified end to end on an NVIDIA B200: installed b9493, detected the update, applied it, and confirmed the binary at the same path advanced to b9585 in the same process. Hermetic backend tests and the frontend type-check pass.
