* fix: auto-retry stalled HF downloads with HF_HUB_DISABLE_XET=1
The heartbeat thread now monitors the HF Hub cache directory for
file-size growth. If no bytes are written for 3 minutes, it sends a
"stall" message to the orchestrator, which kills the subprocess and
retries with HF_HUB_DISABLE_XET=1 (falling back from Xet to standard
HTTPS). If the retry also stalls, it errors out with a clear message.

* fix: include transport type (xet/https) in heartbeat and stall log messages
Makes it clear in backend logs whether the download is using xet or
https transport, and which transport stalled — helpful for debugging.

* fix: monitor HF Hub .tmp dir to avoid false stall detections
huggingface_hub downloads into .tmp/ before atomically moving to
blobs/. Without monitoring .tmp, a large shard actively downloading
for several minutes would show zero blob growth and trigger a false
stall.
* fix: scope HF cache size check to specific model being loaded
Instead of scanning every models--*/blobs directory (O(N) with cached
models), only check the specific model's blobs dir plus the global
.tmp dir. Much faster on systems with many cached models.
* Fix false stall detection on cached/local models and cleanup issues
- Only fire stall if download activity was observed (cache size changed
at least once). Previously, any model load taking >180s would trigger
a false stall, even for already-cached or local models where no
download is happening.
- Return -1 from _get_hf_cache_size on exception to distinguish
"unable to measure" from "genuinely zero bytes". Skip stall logic
when measurement fails.
- Add _shutdown_subprocess before raising on terminal stall path to
prevent leaking a stuck subprocess.
- Detect pre-existing HF_HUB_DISABLE_XET=1 in the parent environment
to avoid a redundant retry cycle when Xet is already disabled.
- Remove global .tmp directory scanning (not used by modern
huggingface_hub; in-progress downloads use .incomplete files in
blobs/ which are already captured by iterdir).
- Add f.is_file() guard in cache size calculation.
- Replace em dashes with ASCII dashes for Windows terminal compat.

* Harden stall detection edge cases
- Guard -1 to valid value transition: when initial _get_hf_cache_size
returns -1 (error) and later recovers to a real value, do not count
that as download activity. Only set saw_download_activity when the
previous measurement was also valid (>= 0).
- Move os import to top-level in orchestrator.py instead of inline
import os as _os.
- Fix misleading comment about post-download protection.
* Use .incomplete files to detect active downloads for stall detection
Replace the saw_download_activity heuristic with direct .incomplete file
detection. huggingface_hub creates *.incomplete files in blobs/ during
active downloads and removes them on completion. This gives a reliable
signal for whether a download is actually in progress.
Benefits:
- Cached models: no .incomplete files -> no stall fired even after 180s
- Post-download init (quantization, GPU loading): .incomplete files gone
so stall timer resets, long init phases are not killed
- Pre-download hangs (XET handshake stall): .incomplete files are
created at download start, so zero-byte stalls are now detected
- No more false positives from -1 to valid measurement transitions
The _get_hf_download_state function now returns (total_bytes,
has_incomplete) tuple or None on error, replacing _get_hf_cache_size.
* Add debug logging to download state exception handler
Log the exception at debug level when _get_hf_download_state fails,
instead of silently returning None. Helps with troubleshooting cache
measurement issues.
* Watch both adapter and base model repos for LoRA stall detection
When loading a LoRA adapter, the actual download bottleneck is often
the base model, not the adapter itself. Update the heartbeat to watch
both mc.identifier and mc.base_model cache directories so stall
detection works for LoRA loads where the base model stalls on Xet.
Also update _get_hf_download_state to accept multiple model names and
skip names without "/" (local paths) since those do not have HF cache
directories.
* Fix model name filtering for official HF models without org prefix
Models like gpt2 and bert-base-uncased do not contain a slash but are
still valid HF Hub models with cache directories. Replace the "/" check
with a proper local-path detection that checks for path separators and
path-like prefixes instead.
Also fix the base_model watch list to not require "/" in the base model
name, so official models used as LoRA bases are also monitored.
* Fix local path detection that broke all org/model names on Linux
The os.path.sep check matched "/" in HF model IDs like "org/model" on
Linux, causing the stall detector to skip ALL standard HF models.
Replace with a check that only skips names starting with "/" (absolute
paths), "." (relative paths), "~" (home-relative), or containing "\"
(Windows paths). HF model IDs like "org/model" or "gpt2" pass through
correctly on all platforms.
