Round 5 reviewer findings, mostly symmetric-lifecycle and input
validation gaps the earlier rounds left open.
Backend lifecycle (P1)
* routes/training.py: training start now also unloads the GGUF
llama-server subprocess; was previously only unloading the
safetensors backend, so starting training while a GGUF chat
model was loaded kept the subprocess pinned to VRAM.
* routes/inference.py: new _raise_if_training_active helper. Both
GGUF and standard chat loads, plus /api/inference/images/load,
now refuse with HTTP 409 when training is active instead of
silently stopping training to free VRAM.
* core/inference/diffusion.py: _release_other_gpu_owners_for_
diffusion no longer stops active training. The route layer
refuses the request first, so reaching the helper with training
live would only happen from programmatic backend calls; better
to surface OOM than terminate a long training run.
* core/inference/diffusion.py: BF16 dtype is now gated on
torch.cuda.is_bf16_supported. Pascal/Turing GPUs report
is_available()=True but lack BF16 ALUs; FLUX kernels then fail
inside from_pretrained. Falls back to FP16 instead of refusing.
* core/inference/diffusion.py: GGUF transformer allocation and
pipeline allocation now run AFTER releasing chat/export GPU
owners; previously from_single_file ran first and could OOM
before the intended VRAM handoff happened.
* routes/models.py: /delete-cached now also blocks delete when
diffusion is_loading=True (not just is_loaded); concurrent
delete during hf_hub_download / from_single_file would have
raced the rmtree.
* routes/models.py: /delete-finetuned now also checks the
diffusion backend before unlinking a Studio outputs/exports
path. A user who exported a FLUX LoRA locally and loaded it via
/images/load could previously rmtree the directory the
diffusion backend was reading from.
Backend correctness / safety (P2)
* core/inference/diffusion.py: _FAMILY_EXCLUDE for qwen-image now
also covers qwen_image_edit / qwenimageedit underscore spellings
so '...qwen_image_edit-GGUF' no longer misdetects as Qwen-Image.
* core/inference/diffusion.py: detect_family now scans
_FULL_REPO_FAMILIES in addition to _FAMILIES, so SDXL repos
(stabilityai/stable-diffusion-xl-base-1.0) are auto-detected
instead of failing with 'Could not infer a diffusion family'.
* core/inference/diffusion.py: generate_image now uses a separate
_generate_lock for the pipeline forward instead of holding
_lock for the whole call. status() polls and concurrent unload
requests no longer block for the full minutes-long generation.
* routes/models.py: diffusion delete guard now uses exact repo-id
match instead of prefix match; previously loading 'org/model-v2'
would block deleting unrelated cached 'org/model'.
* models/inference.py: DiffusionLoadRequest now rejects ASCII
control characters in repo_id / gguf_filename / base_repo /
family via field_validator (closes log-injection surface from
authenticated callers). Also caps lengths at 256 chars.
* models/inference.py: DiffusionGenerateRequest seed is now
bounded to the int64/uint64 range; previously a huge seed
(e.g. 2**100) passed Pydantic then crashed inside
torch.Generator.manual_seed with 'Overflow when unpacking long
long'.
Frontend (P2)
* features/images/images-page.tsx: Custom HF repo panel now
exposes a Pipeline family override dropdown; previously the
backend supported it via DiffusionLoadRequest.family but the UI
had no way to send it, so custom repos whose names did not
contain a hard-coded substring failed to load.
* features/images/images-page.tsx: handleLoad now re-fetches
status on error. The backend clears its old pipeline before
allocating the replacement; a failed swap previously left the
UI showing 'Loaded:' with Generate enabled until manual
refresh.
Tests (10 new)
* underscore qwen-image-edit exclusion + SDXL full-repo detection
* BF16 fallback when is_bf16_supported() returns False
* status() does not block while generate_image holds _generate_lock
* route layer rejects control chars in repo_id
* route layer rejects 2**100 seeds (uint64-max boundary accepted)
* route layer happy-path with negative-prompt true_cfg_scale
forwarding (Qwen/Flux) and skip-when-no-neg (distilled CFG)
