(FOR CI) Xsn/refactor server preset #61
Conversation
WalkthroughAdds automatic boolean CLI value assignment, expands preset management via a new common_preset_context (multi-source loading, cascading, merging), changes preset-to-args rendering to server_model_meta::update_args with reserved-arg sanitization, and tightens INI file validation and error handling.

- Reorder the members so

🧹 Nitpick comments (3)
tools/server/server-models.cpp (1)
152-229: Preset loading/cascading andupdate_argsusage match the documented routing behaviorThe refactored model-loading flow:
- Loads presets from cache, models-dir, and INI (
load_from_cache,load_from_models_dir,load_from_ini).- Applies the global INI preset first via
ctx_preset.cascade(global, ...).- Merges cached and local presets, giving local precedence if both exist.
- Applies model-specific INI presets on top of cached/local via
merge.- Finally overlays the CLI-derived
base_presetper model, giving CLI highest priority.Then, for each model,
server_model_meta::update_args(ctx_preset, bin_path):
- Clears reserved router-only options from the preset.
- Injects host/port/alias for the child instance.
- Renders the final argv vector via
preset.to_args(bin_path).This sequence is consistent with the README’s precedence rules and the intended router semantics. Aside from the reserved-arg/env-name issues called out separately, the overall flow and use of
update_argslook solid.If you rely on Windows builds, please ensure that
GetModuleFileNameW,DWORD, and_countofare available in this translation unit—either via an existing include (e.g., inserver-common.h) or by explicitly including<windows.h>here. If they already come from a shared header, no change is needed.Also applies to: 100-109, 139-150, 368-403

There was a problem hiding this comment.
Ambiguous behavior when multiple .gguf files exist in a directory.
In the scan_subdir lambda, if multiple non-sharded, non-mmproj .gguf files exist, the code will overwrite model_file on each iteration (lines 300-307), ultimately using the last file encountered. Similarly, multiple mmproj files would result in using the last one. This creates non-deterministic model selection that depends on filesystem ordering.
Consider either:
- Raising an error when multiple candidate files are found
- Implementing explicit prioritization logic (e.g., prefer a specific naming pattern)
- Logging a warning when ambiguity is detected

tools/server/server-models.cpp (2)
106-106: Consider implementing preset validation before rendering.The TODO comment indicates that preset validation before rendering might be beneficial to catch configuration errors early.
Based on learnings, I understand you prefer to defer some error handling. However, if you'd like to implement this validation now, I can help generate the validation logic.
143-143: Consider deferring args rendering until actual load time.
update_argsis called here during initialization withport=0, then called again at line 391 duringload()with the actual port. The initial rendering produces args with an incorrect port value that are immediately discarded when the model is actually loaded.While this provides args for display in API responses even when the model is UNLOADED, it's potentially confusing and wasteful.
Consider either:
- Deferring args rendering until load time, or
- Adding a comment explaining why placeholder args with port=0 are intentionally generated
Also applies to: 391-391

85-99: Past issue successfully resolved.The environment key names have been corrected to match the actual definitions in
common/arg.cpp:
- Line 88:
LLAMA_API_KEY(previously incorrectLLAMA_ARG_API_KEY)- Line 92:
LLAMA_ARG_MODELS_AUTOLOAD(previously incorrectLLAMA_ARG_NO_MODELS_AUTOLOAD)This ensures router-level API keys and models-autoload flags are properly stripped from presets before merging and before being returned via the
/modelsendpoint.
119-127: LGTM - Clean initialization flow.The constructor properly initializes the preset context, loads the base preset from CLI arguments, and sanitizes it by removing reserved arguments. The initialization order is correct.
153-228: LGTM - Well-structured cascading preset logic.The refactored
load_modelsimplements a clear precedence hierarchy:
- Cached models loaded first
- Local models override cached models (line 182-184)
- Custom presets merge with existing or add new entries (line 187-196)
- CLI base preset takes final precedence (line 199-201)
The implementation correctly handles the multi-source loading and precedence rules. Logging at lines 157, 162, 169, and 223-227 provides good visibility into the loading process.
742-747: LGTM - Proper preset sanitization for API responses.The code correctly sanitizes presets before including them in
/modelsresponses by:
- Removing router-level reserved arguments (API keys, SSL config, etc.) via
unset_reserved_args- Removing runtime instance-specific values (host, port, alias)
- Keeping model-specific arguments intact
This prevents sensitive information leakage while providing useful configuration details to clients.
129-135: LGTM - Sensible fallback for executable path resolution.The code attempts platform-specific executable path resolution and gracefully falls back to
argv[0]on failure, with appropriate warning logs. This ensures the server can still function even if the platform-specific API fails.
103-105: No actionable issues identified.The
set_optionAPI calls on lines 103-105 are correct. The method signature explicitly requiresconst common_preset_context & ctxas the first parameter, and the code properly passesctx_presetin this position.
