Pass subprocess stdout/stderr through to the parent's stderr directly
instead of re-wrapping each line with slog. The subprocess already
writes structured slog output, so the re-wrapping produced nested
timestamps, levels, and message fields that were hard to read.
Also downgrade verbose KV cache debug logs to trace level.
The KV cache previously used a tree structure which could
store multiple divergent sequences, which is good for cache
reuse. However, this is typically used in conjunction with
paged attention so each node in the tree can store just a
chunk of the KV cache and they can be stitched together later.
We don't currently do this, so the cache was storing copies of
the full cache for each past sequence.
This redundancy plus the lack of resource limits, caused significant
memory use as a conversation grew. Instead, this changes to store
a single entry for the cache, which can be prefix matched. Although
it is less ideal for multiple users, it largely matches Ollama's
current behavior. It can be improved as additional pieces are fleshed
out.
The previous approach tracked array lifecycles through reference
counting, where each array recorded its inputs and a reference count
that was decremented as dependents were freed. This is not really
necessary as MLX tracks references internally. It is also error
prone as it is easy to create new arrays and forget to free them
when the Go variable goes out of scope.
Instead, we can pin just the arrays we want (typically outputs and
specific intermediates, like the cache). All other arrays are freed
by default when we run sweep. This avoids most causes of memory leaks
while still giving the freedom to save what we want.
The recent change in #14322 added tryLoadByName() which attempts to
load libmlxc.dylib via rpath before searching directories. This is an
optimization for Homebrew installations where rpath is correctly set.
However, when rpath isn't set (which is the common case for app bundle
installations), dlopen fails and the CHECK macro prints an error to
stderr:
ERROR - dynamic.c:21 - CHECK failed: handle->ctx != NULL
This error is misleading because it's an expected failure path - the
code correctly falls back to searching the executable directory and
loads the library successfully. The error message causes user confusion
and makes it appear that something is broken.
Replace the CHECK macro with a simple return code so the C code fails
silently. The Go code already handles error logging appropriately:
tryLoadByName() fails silently (intentional fallback), while
tryLoadFromDir() logs via slog.Error() when explicit path loading fails.
Parse the default_num_ctx from the server's "vram-based default context"
log line and expose it through the inference compute API. This eliminates
duplicate VRAM tier calculation logic in the frontend.
- Add InferenceInfo struct with Computes and DefaultContextLength
- Rename GetInferenceComputer to GetInferenceInfo
- Handle missing default context line gracefully (older servers)
- Add DefaultContextLength to InferenceComputeResponse
- Update Settings UI to use server's default, disable slider while loading
- Add disabled prop to Slider component (grays out + hides handle)
- Migrate existing users with context_length=4096 to 0 (auto mode)
This change adds a new x/tokenizer package which includes:
* New BPE and SentencePiece tokenizers
* Removing the dependency on the imagegen tokenizers
* Fixes to multibyte decoding in the pipeline
* Various correctness and benchmark tests
Not included in this PR is the WordPiece tokenizer for BERT models which will be
added when we add embedding models. The imagegen tokenizers will also be removed in
a follow-up PR.
The existing code manually searches directories for libmlxc.* and passes
full paths to dlopen, bypassing the binary's rpath. This means MLX
libraries installed via package managers (e.g., Homebrew) aren't found
even when rpath is correctly set at link time.
This change adds a fallback that tries loading via rpath first (using
just the library name), before falling back to the existing directory
search. This follows standard Unix/macOS conventions and works with any
installation that sets rpath.
Fixes library loading on macOS with Homebrew-installed mlx-c without
requiring OLLAMA_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable.

The Codex runner was not setting OPENAI_BASE_URL or OPENAI_API_KEY, this prevents Codex from sending requests to api.openai.com instead of the local Ollama server. This mirrors the approach used by the Claude runner.
Codex v0.98.0 sends zstd-compressed request bodies to the /v1/responses endpoint. Add decompression support in ResponsesMiddleware with an 8MB max decompressed size limit to prevent resource exhaustion.
This fixes a bug with current MLX based models which don't get loaded/unloaded correctly. The first model currently gets loaded and then subsequent model starts get shunted to the first runner which results in the wrong model being run.
* add ability to disable cloud
Users can now easily opt-out of cloud inference and web search by
setting
```
"disable_ollama_cloud": true
```
in their `~/.ollama/server.json` settings file. After a setting update,
the server must be restarted.
Alternatively, setting the environment variable `OLLAMA_NO_CLOUD=1` will
also disable cloud features. While users previously were able to avoid
cloud models by not pulling or `ollama run`ing them, this gives them an
easy way to enforce that decision. Any attempt to run a cloud model when
cloud is disabled will fail.
The app's old "airplane mode" setting, which did a similar thing for
hiding cloud models within the app is now unified with this new cloud
disabled mode. That setting has been replaced with a "Cloud" toggle,
which behind the scenes edits `server.json` and then restarts the
server.
* gate cloud models across TUI and launch flows when cloud is disabled
Block cloud models from being selected, launched, or written to
integration configs when cloud mode is turned off:
- TUI main menu: open model picker instead of launching with a
disabled cloud model
- cmd.go: add IsCloudModelDisabled checks for all Selection* paths
- LaunchCmd: filter cloud models from saved Editor configs before
launch, fall through to picker if none remain
- Editor Run() methods (droid, opencode, openclaw): filter cloud
models before calling Edit() and persist the cleaned list
- Export SaveIntegration, remove SaveIntegrationModel wrapper that
was accumulating models instead of replacing them
* rename saveIntegration to SaveIntegration in config.go and tests
* cmd/config: add --model guarding and empty model list fixes
* Update docs/faq.mdx

This reverts commit 8bff8615f9.
Since this error shows up in other integrations, we want it to be
prefixed with Ollama
* rename cloud status
* more status renaming
* fix tests that weren't updated after rename

This change fixes an issue where GGML based models (for either the Ollama runner or
the legacy llama.cpp runner) would try to load the mlx library. That would panic
and the model fails to start.
This change adds a new MLX based runner which includes:
* Method-based MLX bindings
* Subprocess-based MLX runner (x/mlxrunner)
* KV cache with tree management
* A basic sampler
The GLM4-MoE-Lite model has been ported to use the new bindings.
