* fix: clearer Studio setup error when GPU driver is too old for the installed CUDA toolkit
* [pre-commit.ci] auto fixes from pre-commit.com hooks
for more information, see https://pre-commit.ci
* Honor optional color arg in setup.sh substep so driver/toolkit warnings render in C_WARN
* Add regression test that setup.sh _cuda_version_gt compares numerically for PR #5993
* Update Resolve-CudaToolkit test for the new driver-too-old messaging
setup.ps1 now routes the too-new-toolkit case through
Write-CudaDriverToolkitMismatch instead of the old 'is installed but
INCOMPATIBLE' banner. Extract that helper alongside Resolve-CudaToolkit so the
child pwsh can run it, and assert the new driver-too-old guidance (and the
one-line source-build error) instead of the removed INCOMPATIBLE text.
* Address review nits: document Windows hard-exit asymmetry and add toolkit/driver edge tests
setup.ps1: note that only a forced source build reaches the hard-exit branch
(the prebuilt path returned above), unlike setup.sh which degrades to CPU.
test_selection_logic.py: cover the CUDA UMD Version variant, the empty nvcc
version guard, and the too_old (< 12.4) short-circuit.
* fix(studio): allow CUDA minor-version compat and try installed toolkits before CPU fallback
The driver check now compares CUDA major versions only, per NVIDIA
minor-version compatibility, and when the selected nvcc is still too
new the setup iterates other installed toolkits and uses the newest
driver-compatible one before falling back to a CPU llama.cpp build.
Same rule mirrored in setup.ps1.
* style: apply ruff kwarg-spacing format after rebase
* Accept a same-major CUDA toolkit found only on PATH in the Windows fallback
The major-only compatibility fix updated the side-by-side scan (Find-Nvcc
-MaxVersion) and the CUDA_PATH check, but the fallback that runs when
Find-Nvcc -MaxVersion returns null still recorded any plain Find-Nvcc result
as an incompatible toolkit without re-checking the major. A same-major
toolkit discoverable only via PATH, process CUDA_PATH, or a custom location
(e.g. toolkit 13.3 with a driver supporting CUDA 13.2) was therefore rejected
even though it is compatible.
Re-apply the same major-only rule in the fallback: use the toolkit when its
major is within the driver's, otherwise record it as too-new. Adds a
regression test covering the PATH-only same-major case.
* Add CUDA driver/toolkit selection edge-case tests for Studio setup
* [pre-commit.ci] auto fixes from pre-commit.com hooks
for more information, see https://pre-commit.ci
* Tighten comments in Studio CUDA driver/toolkit setup
Collapse multi-line comments, drop obvious ones, keep the load-bearing intent
(the major-compat invariant, the Windows hard-exit vs setup.sh-CPU asymmetry,
the PATH-only fallback rationale). Comment-only; no code change.
* Clarify the Windows source-build hard-exit comment
The path is reached by any committed source build (forced, or after a
prebuilt-install failure), not only a forced one. Comment-only.
* [pre-commit.ci] auto fixes from pre-commit.com hooks

* Drop two obvious comments in setup.ps1 CUDA detection

* Studio: defer the Windows CUDA Toolkit check so prebuilt users are not blocked
setup.ps1 section 1e validated the installed CUDA Toolkit against the driver in
Phase 1 and hard-exited when the toolkit was newer than the driver supports.
That ran before the prebuilt llama.cpp install (Phase 3.4), which is
self-contained and needs no local toolkit. A Blackwell host (sm_120) on a driver
that advertises CUDA 13.2 with CUDA Toolkit 13.3 installed was blocked entirely,
even though the prebuilt selector would have given it a working GPU build.
The toolkit (nvcc) is only consumed by the Phase 4 source build. Move section 1e
into a Resolve-CudaToolkit function and call it lazily at the source-compile
branch, gated on $HasNvidiaSmi. The prebuilt path no longer touches the toolkit;
forced/source builds keep the identical requirement, winget auto-install, and
error text via -RequireOrExit.
Add a pwsh unit test that extracts the real function and runs it against a
spoofed Blackwell sm_120 / driver 13.2 / toolkit 13.3 host: the prebuilt path
defers, the forced build still fails fast.
