Studio: Don't re-prompt finished answers in the tool loop (#7505)

* don't re-prompt finished answers in the tool loop

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

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

* keep a separate post-tool reprompt budget and tighten the intent regexes

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

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

* Reset the repeat guard after a tool runs and suppress 'I should call ...' forced stalls

* Cover 'must' in forced-retry suppression, keep appended answers, and count RAG autoinject as a prior tool run

* Anchor obligation suppression to sentence starts and wire the repeat guard into the safetensors loop

* Keep deletions out of restatement and nudge pronoun-free first-step plans

* Tighten repeat similarity, anchor subjectless plans, and restore first-step plan forms

* Keep first-person plan framing and punctuation-bearing terms out of repeat detection

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

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

* Keep leading term punctuation, accept colon-delimited first steps, and drop invoke/query from suppression

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

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

* Tighten comments on the plan-without-action re-prompt guards

* Compare plans by token sequence, suppress subjectless modals, and accept dash-delimited first steps

* studio: narrow the first-step plan match and make repeat detection content-based

Restrict the bare "First, <word>" intent alternative to a pronoun, an explicit
plan, or an investigative verb, so ordinal prose ("First place went to Alice")
and user-facing advice ("First, install the package") no longer count as a plan
without action.

Keep punctuation-only tokens in the repeat comparison, so "the value is 5" and
"the value is < 5" stay distinct, and compare content-word sequences instead of
a similarity ratio: any ratio is length-dependent, so one corrected token in a
54-token plan still scored 0.98 and cost the model its remaining nudge.

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

* studio: tighten comments in the plan-without-action re-prompt path

* studio: keep a forced retry that pivots from a plan to an answer

The obligation-plan branch discarded the whole turn, so a retry such as
"I should call web_search, but the answer is Tokyo." reached the user as
nothing at all. Suppress the plan only when nothing follows it: a pivot
after the match keeps the output, and _FINAL_ANSWER_SIGNAL now recognises
"the answer is" and "to summarise" alongside "answer:".

Leaking a plan sentence is cosmetic, dropping an answer is not, so the
doubtful case now resolves towards shipping the turn.

* studio: keep articles in repeat comparison and exclude missing-answer phrasing

Articles are not filler: dropping them made "search for The Who" and
"search for Who" compare equal, so a corrected target ended the nudge.

_FINAL_ANSWER_SIGNAL matched "the answer is not in the provided context",
which announces a missing answer, so the plan behind it shipped as the final
response instead of being suppressed. Negated forms are now excluded.

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

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

* studio: tighten the pivot and final-answer signals, drop filler-insensitive repeats

The purpose clause in "call web_search to summarize the results" matched the
final-answer signal, so the plan shipped instead of being suppressed; that
alternative is gone. A pivot word now has to carry text of its own, since
"I should call web_search, though." answers nothing.

Repeat detection no longer ignores filler words. No word is reliably filler:
dropping them to absorb rewording also absorbed the target ("OK Go" became
"Go"). A missed repeat costs one nudge out of the cap; a false one strands the
plan unexecuted.

* studio: exempt offers of help, and add a measured accuracy floor

Offering to help hands control back exactly like the existing "let me know"
exemption. On a corpus of real model turns, "I'll do my best to help" and
"allow me to assist" close a clarification request and never precede a tool
call, but they were read as intent and re-prompted. "help you" keeps its plan
reading when an action verb follows it.

The new test scores the classifier against 300 turns captured from three local
GGUF models, each one a finished answer: the turn called no tool, and three
regenerations behind the production nudge produced no tool call either. Over
those turns, wasted nudges go from 36 (12.0%) on main to 5 (1.7%), and retries
whose text would be discarded from 60 (20.2%) to 1 (0.3%).

Until now these patterns were tuned on hand-written example sentences, which
cannot show how often the classifier is right on real output.

+# Changelog
+
+Release notes for Unsloth and Unsloth Studio.
+
+Unsloth Studio reads this file to show release notes inside the "New Unsloth
+version" update popup. Edit it here and the popup picks the change up on the
+next update check, with no release or rebuild required.
+
+## Format
+
+Every release is a level-2 heading whose first token is the version, optionally
+followed by a date:
+
+```md
+## 2026.7.6 - 2026-07-22
+```
+
+`## [2026.7.6] - 2026-07-22` and `## v2026.7.6` also work. Everything under a
+heading, up to the next level-2 heading, is that release's notes and renders as
+Markdown in the popup.
+
+Notes are matched to one exact version. When Studio offers an update to
+`2026.7.6` it renders the `2026.7.6` section and nothing else. If that section
+is missing, the popup links out to the online changelog rather than showing
+notes from an unrelated release, so a new version needs its own section here
+before its notes can appear.
+
+Keep the newest release at the top. Lead each bullet with the change itself:
+the collapsed popup highlights the first sentence and dims the rest.
+`## Unreleased` is ignored by the popup, so it is safe to stage notes there and
+rename the heading at release time.
+
+<!-- Add new releases directly below this line. -->
+
+## Unreleased
+
+## 2026.7.5
+
+### What's Changed
+
+- AMD support is here. Train, run RL, chat with and deploy 500+ models on
+  Radeon, Instinct, Ryzen and data center GPUs across Windows, WSL and Linux,
+  up to 2x faster with 70% less VRAM and no accuracy loss.
+- Intel XPU support lands in Studio, so Arc and Data Center GPUs run chat and
+  training alongside the NVIDIA, AMD and Apple paths.
+- Local speech to text dictation runs fully offline, with slim Whisper bundles
+  and a picker for custom models.
+- DoRA training is available in Studio, selectable next to LoRA and full
+  fine-tuning in the training tab.
+- The update popup previews release notes inline, pulled from this file and
+  matched to the exact version being offered.
+
+### AMD, 23 July update
+
+Our AMD collaboration, custom Triton kernels and math algorithms bring local
+training and inference to AMD hardware. The 23 July update builds on the
+[AMD release](https://github.com/unslothai/unsloth/releases/tag/v0.1.501-beta):
+
+- RDNA2 and Gorgon Halo are supported, and the installer no longer fails to
+  detect GPUs on Strix Halo and other AMD cards.
+- RDNA4 handling is better, and HIP and ROCm failures are caught and fixed
+  automatically instead of stopping the install.
+- Unified memory safetensors loading is 2x faster, with much faster gradient
+  checkpointing on unified memory devices.
+- Voice dictation through whisper.cpp has preliminary support.
+- Rollback environments left by installs no longer eat 5GB of disk. They are
+  cleaned up automatically.
+
+Optimized ROCm builds cover GGUF and safetensors inference, and ROCm
+compatibility is improved for MI300X and MI325X. Full guide:
+[unsloth.ai/docs/basics/amd](https://unsloth.ai/docs/basics/amd).
+
+### Running larger models
+
+- Automatic GPU placement, or pick exactly which GPUs and layers to use.
+- Move MoE expert layers into system memory so larger models fit.
+- Split a model across several GPUs, or use tensor parallelism.
+- Hardware settings are saved per model and quant.
+
+### Also in this release
+
+- Remote access with `unsloth studio --secure` over free HTTPS via Cloudflare.
+- Web search reads PDF papers and manuals, and parallel tool calls, reasoning
+  output and tool retries are more reliable.
+- The model download location is configurable, so weights can live on a second
+  drive instead of the default cache.
+- Stalled Hugging Face XET downloads retry over standard HTTP, and existing
+  GGUF files are reused instead of downloaded again.

+"""Measure where Unsloth Studio's startup time goes, per platform.
+
+Nothing measured this before: the backend logs "lifespan startup completed in X ms"
+but no test or CI job asserted a budget, and studio_test_kit discards the elapsed
+time of its /healthz poll. A first local run (Linux, warm cache, fast server CPU)
+found `import main` alone costs 6.6s before the server can bind, dominated by eager
+module-level imports pulled in by the `routes` package:
+
+    torch          1930 ms self
+    unsloth_zoo     914 ms self
+    routes          779 ms self
+    transformers    524 ms self
+
+Phases measured:
+  import   `python -X importtime -c "import main"`, top cumulative + per-package self
+  spawn    process start -> first byte on stdout
+  healthz  process start -> /api/health (or /healthz) answers 200
+  lifespan the backend's own "lifespan startup completed in X ms" log line
+
+Usage:
+    python scripts/profile_startup.py --repeats 3 --json out.json
+    python scripts/profile_startup.py --import-only     # no server, no port needed
+
+Exit code is 0 unless --max-healthz-seconds is given and exceeded.

+"""Ordering rules for the early admission release at ``data: [DONE]``.
+
+Freeing the llama-server slot at the sentinel is only correct when two things hold, and on a
+one-slot backend both are load-bearing:
+
+1. The release happens *before* the sentinel reaches the ASGI ``send()``. Starlette's
+   ``stream_response`` suspends the body iterator at its ``yield`` for the whole of
+   ``await send(...)``, and uvicorn's ``send()`` awaits ``flow.drain()`` on a write-paused
+   transport, so a client that stops reading parks the generator there indefinitely. Starlette
+   never ``aclose()``s a body iterator either, so that generator's ``finally`` is left to GC.
+
+2. The sentinel really means "llama-server is done with this request". Two other emitters end
+   in the same bytes: ``_openai_stream_error_sse``, yielded from inside the still-suspended
+   generator's ``except`` block, and the cancel path, which breaks the read loop while the sync
+   generator is still parked on a yield inside ``_open_stream``'s httpx client.
