Models like GLM-4.7-Flash have architectures (glm4_moe_lite) that
AutoConfig in the main process (transformers 4.57.x) can't recognize.
Instead of a raw config.json workaround, run the AutoConfig check in
a subprocess with .venv_t5/ activated — same pattern as training and
inference workers. This is more robust and consistent.
AutoConfig.from_pretrained() fails for models needing transformers 5.x
(e.g. glm4_moe_lite) when running with 4.57.x. Add a raw config.json
fallback that bypasses AutoConfig's architecture registry — fetches
config.json directly from local path or HuggingFace Hub and checks
for vision indicators without needing the architecture to be registered.
All version switching now uses .venv_t5/ (pre-installed by setup.sh).
The old .venv_overlay/ with runtime pip installs is removed.
ensure_transformers_version() (used only by export) now does a
lightweight sys.path swap instead of pip installing at runtime.
Reusing a subprocess after unsloth patches torch internals causes
inspect.getsource() failures when loading a different model type.
Each load now gets a clean Python interpreter.
Replaces cmd_queue-based cancel polling with a shared mp.Event.
Fixes two issues:
- Loading a new model while generating no longer hangs (cancel is instant)
- Subprocess shuts down cleanly after explicit stop generation
Inference now runs in a persistent subprocess, solving the same
transformers version-switching problem that was fixed for training.
The subprocess stays alive between requests (model in GPU memory)
and is only restarted when switching transformers versions.
New files:
- core/inference/worker.py: subprocess entry point with command loop
- core/inference/orchestrator.py: parent-side proxy with same API
Modified:
- core/inference/__init__.py: exports orchestrator as default backend
- routes/inference.py: removed in-process ensure_transformers_version()
These are standalone benchmark scripts that were force-added despite being
gitignored. They have no test functions and run network calls at module
level, which breaks pytest collection in CI.
- Add 200-sample parallel probe using ThreadPoolExecutor + safe_num_proc
to estimate download speed and failure rate before full conversion
- Abort with clear error if >=30% of probe images fail to download
- Show estimated download time in the training overlay modal
- Parallel batch conversion for URL-based datasets (vs sequential for local)
- Add warning field to /check-format response for URL-based image datasets
- Display URL warning in dataset preview dialog (amber banner)
- Thread progress_callback from trainer through format_and_template_dataset
to convert_to_vlm_format for real-time status updates
