Integrating llmman into ~100 Ollama-API clients (PR campaign) kept hitting the same gaps. Each fix follows ollama's server/routes.go / llm/llama_server.go.

  • /api/embed, /api/embeddings (~20 PRs): ride on the backend's /v1/embeddings with ollama's semantics (truncate via /tokenize+/detokenize on overflow, dimensions, keep_alive, bounded fan-out, normalisation, NaN/Inf rejection).
  • /v1/embeddings 501 (any-llm): an embedding model is detected by its GGUF pooling_type key and loaded with --embeddings, -b/-ub at its per-slot context, --ctx-size capped at its trained context.
  • /api/copy: llmman cp over the wire.
  • /api/create + HEAD/POST /api/blobs/{digest}: from (alias) and files (uploaded GGUFs, built with the same OciStore::build as llmman build). Modelfile fields (system, template, quantize, ...) are refused with a 400 naming them. Uploads stay staged so one can back several creates; the existing prune_cache sweep reclaims them. A loaded model whose tag now points elsewhere is evicted.
  • 415 on non-JSON Content-Type (PromptingTools.jl): Ollama routes accept a JSON body under any header, as gin's ShouldBindJSON does. A non-JSON POST with an Origin CORS wouldn't allow gets a 403 (a simple request skips preflight, and /api/blobs reads a raw body).
  • llmman cp/build stored a bare destination verbatim while run/rm/show resolve one to docker.io/ai/, so cp gemma4 mine && run mine never worked. Fixed; the API routes resolve the same way.

Review comments taken: atomic-counter temp names; timeouts on /tokenize, /detokenize, /v1/embeddings; Origin gate incl. /api/blobs; MLX pre-check before ensure_model; batch embedding bounded to 8 in flight; always-normalise (f64 norm) with NaN/Inf → error; LLMMAN_CONTEXT_LENGTH=0 no longer becomes -b 0; -b/-ub per-slot rather than num_parallel-scaled; 200 for an existing blob; retag eviction with tag-defaulted keys; staged uploads kept after a create; @digest refused as a create name. Not taken: empty-string filtering (ollama doesn't); streaming create statuses / streaming tar and the write_blob same-digest temp race (pre-existing in llmman build); vLLM 400-as-overflow; 404-vs-corruption (matches handle_show); legacy raw (unnormalised) /api/embeddings for a few old BERT GGUFs; truncation limit vs num_parallel (/props n_ctx is already per-slot); deferring retag eviction past in-flight requests (same semantics as keep_alive: 0; the guard re-applies its keep-alive on drop, so a deferred flag wouldn't hold).

Testing: fmt/clippy clean, cargo test --lib 563 passed (10 new). Live with embeddinggemma-300M: /api/embed 10-input batch (unit norm), /api/embeddings, /v1/embeddings (was 501); with LLMMAN_NUM_PARALLEL=2 the spawn is --ctx-size 4096 --parallel 2 -b 2048 -ub 2048; 6000-word input truncates to 2048 tokens, truncate: false → 400; dimensions: 128; blob 201 / re-upload 200 / mismatch 400; cross-site upload 403, allowed-origin text/plain 200; /api/create from files then /api/embed through it, @digest name → 400; /api/copy onto a loaded model evicts it and the next request loads the new content; llmman cp gemma4:e2b mine:v1 && llmman rm mine:v1.

Not verified: --ociman container spawn path, vLLM-served embeddings through /api/embed.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The daemon adds Ollama-compatible embedding, model copy, blob upload, and model creation endpoints. CLI references are canonicalized. GGUF embedding models receive dedicated llama-server settings and context handling.

Changes

Ollama API and embedding support

Layer / File(s) Summary
Canonical model references
src/cmd/build.rs, src/cmd/cp.rs
Build and copy commands resolve Ollama references before storing or tagging models. Copy logic is shared with the daemon.
Embedding model runtime
src/gguf.rs, src/container.rs, src/cmd/serve.rs
GGUF pooling metadata identifies embedding models. Local and container llama-server processes receive embedding flags and context-sized batch settings.
Model copy, blobs, and creation
src/cmd/serve.rs, README.md
The daemon adds model copy, blob staging, and model creation from aliases or uploaded GGUF files. Ollama routes accept non-JSON content types. Documentation lists the new endpoints.
Embedding request flow
src/cmd/serve.rs
The daemon adds current and legacy embedding endpoints. Requests support input validation, truncation, dimensions, normalization, backend translation, and usage reporting. Tests cover the new behavior.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~60 minutes

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to c6d0e

The change adds Ollama-compatible embedding and model-management routes with validation and tests, and no concrete merge-blocking behavior remains.

Drop empty strings from input arrays.

embed_inputs preserves empty array members, and embed_via_backend sends each member to /v1/embeddings. Ollama removes empty strings and returns no embedding for them. Filter empty strings in the array branch and add a regression test for ["a", ""].

Add a test for staged_file's bare-file-name check.

staged_blob_path has direct coverage here, but staged_file's name check at Lines 5540-5549 does not. That check is the control that keeps a files key from placing a hard link outside the temp build directory. A regression there would not fail any test.

- Around line 5370-5374: Replace timestamp-based staging names with the same
per-process atomic counter pattern used by OciStore::write_ref. In
src/cmd/serve.rs lines 5370-5374, use the counter with the process ID for the
/api/blobs temp file; in lines 5572-5574, append the counter to the create
directory name used by /api/create. Ensure each request receives a unique value
within the daemon process.
- Around line 6000-6008: Add explicit request timeouts to the `/tokenize` and
`/detokenize` calls in the truncation retry path, matching the bounded `/props`
request behavior, and add a larger timeout to `post_embeddings` for legitimate
long inputs. Preserve the existing request, error-context, and
response-processing flow while ensuring stalled llama-server calls cannot remain
pending indefinitely.
- Around line 7013-7018: Update the request handling around the content-type
rewrite so state-changing cross-site requests are rejected or excluded before
reaching the Ollama router, using is_cross_site(req.headers()) as the gate.
Preserve same-site and explicitly supported request behavior, and apply the
protection consistently to routes including /api/copy, /api/create, /api/pull,
and /api/blobs/:digest.
- Around line 5319-5321: Update the blob staging lifecycle around
blob_staging_dir, handle_blob_upload, handle_create, and prune_cache: remove
source staging files after successful creates, and add a separate age-based
sweep for unclaimed files under the staging directory with a staging-specific
retention period. Ensure active uploads and in-flight creates are protected, and
do not use GC_GRACE_PERIOD for this lifecycle.

  • This also maps every OciStore::find failure—including a malformed or unreadable existing manifest ref—to 404. Only the absent-source case should be translated to “model not found”; propagate storage corruption and I/O errors so /api/create does not conceal an unhealthy store.

  • LLMMAN_CONTEXT_LENGTH=0 is a supported sentinel for “use the trained context,” but this branch preserves 0; both spawners then emit -b 0 -ub 0 for embedding models. llama.cpp rejects a context where both batch sizes are zero, so this valid configuration prevents embedding models from loading. Resolve the sentinel to trained before constructing LlamaOptions.

  • OciStore::find can fail because a present ref is corrupt or unreadable, not only because the source is absent (storage/oci.rs:342-361).

  • stream: true does not actually stream progress: the entire copy/build completes before lines is constructed, and then all NDJSON is buffered into one String. Large model creation can therefore remain silent for a long time and trigger client/proxy timeouts despite the PR promising /api/pull-style streaming; return a streaming body and emit statuses while the blocking build runs.

  • The cross-site safeguard only withholds the header rewrite and relies on Json extraction to produce the 415. This raw-body blob route ignores Content-Type, so a cross-site text/plain POST still reaches handle_blob_upload and can persist attacker-chosen content, allowing a webpage to fill the daemon's disk. Explicitly reject cross-site non-JSON blob POSTs before calling next.run.

  • Ollama's EmbedHandler L2-normalizes every embedding before applying optional dimension truncation, but this code normalizes only when a smaller positive dimensions value is supplied. If a backend returns an unnormalized vector, the common request with no dimensions produces incompatible /api/embed output. Normalize every vector after optional truncation.
    if let Some(dims) = req.dimensions.filter(|d| *d > 0) {
        for v in &mut embeddings {
            if dims < v.len() {

  • These paths remain shared by digest across requests. Two concurrent creates can both pass staged_file, after which one build removes the source while the other has not linked/copied it yet, causing the second create to fail nondeterministically. Use per-digest claim synchronization or retain the content-addressed staged blob until garbage collection so overlapping creates can safely reference it.

  • If publishing the verified upload fails, ? returns without deleting tmp. This leaks a full model-sized temporary file until a later startup sweep; additionally, two concurrent uploads of the same digest can make the loser return 500 on platforms where rename does not replace an existing destination. Clean up on rename failure and return 200 if another request has already published dest.

  • The cross-site write protection trusts a missing Sec-Fetch-Site header. Browsers/WebViews that do not emit Fetch Metadata can still send an Origin with a simple text/plain or form POST, so a disallowed page reaches state-changing routes such as /api/pull, /api/create, and /api/blobs. Treat a present, disallowed Origin as untrusted even when Sec-Fetch-Site is absent; account explicitly for same-origin access through non-default hostnames.

  • Both create branches can overwrite model, but this handler never invalidates an already-running entry for that reference. Since ensure_model reuses an alive exact-key runner without checking the current manifest digest, a successful recreate may keep serving the previous model. Coordinate creation with the load lock and evict or mark the old runner stale after the reference changes.

  • Removing the shared content-addressed upload here races with another create using the same digest. A second request can pass staged_file (or a client can receive 200 from HEAD), then this request deletes the source before the second blocking task links it, causing a nondeterministic ENOENT. Keep staged blobs until GC or coordinate per-digest claims so one create cannot invalidate another.

  • The Some(None) embedding case still forwards a configured LLMMAN_CONTEXT_LENGTH=0. Because embeddings is true, both spawners then emit -b 0 -ub 0, despite this change's stated guarantee that zero means “trained context” rather than a zero batch. Filter zero when the pooling key exists but the trained context is absent or cannot fit in u32.

  • This fan-out is not bounded like Ollama's implementation: Ollama's per-input Embedding call first acquires a semaphore sized to the runner's parallelism, whereas try_join_all starts an HTTP request for every array element immediately. A large input array can therefore flood a single-slot llama-server (or a provider) with hundreds of concurrent requests and produce avoidable queue/connection failures. Please bound in-flight embed_one calls while retaining their input indices so response ordering is preserved.

  • Retagging and this eviction scan are not serialized with ensure_model's per-model load lock. A concurrent load can resolve the old model, be spawning it when the tag changes, find no entry during this scan, and then insert the stale runner afterward; later requests will reuse content that no longer matches the tag. Acquire the destination's load_identity lock before each copy/build mutation and hold it through eviction.

  • Overflow handling is restricted to 5xx responses here, and the truncate: false branch below additionally matches only the case-sensitive text too large. llama-server versions also report input limits as 400 and with messages such as context size, context length, or physical batch size; in those cases default truncation is skipped and the local error becomes a 500. Classify known input-limit messages independently of the upstream status and reuse that predicate for both truncation branches.

  • When LLMMAN_CONTEXT_LENGTH=0 and an embedding GGUF has pooling_type but no usable context-length metadata, ctx_size remains Some(0), so this still forwards -b 0 -ub 0. That contradicts the intended “0 means trained context” behavior and can prevent such models from starting; omit the batch flags when the resolved size is zero.

  • This eviction is not synchronized with ensure_model's per-model load lock. If a load has already resolved the old model but has not yet inserted it into running, this scan finds nothing; the load can then insert the stale digest after the retag, and subsequent requests continue using old content. Serialize each tag update and its eviction with the same load_identity lock used by ensure_model.

  • Retagging is not synchronized with ensure_model's per-model load lock. If a load of the old destination is still starting, this scan can finish before that loader inserts its runner; the loader then inserts the stale digest after the retag, so subsequent requests keep using old content. Acquire the destination load lock before scanning running so an in-progress load is inserted and then evicted (or a later load observes the new tag).

  • For an embedding GGUF that has pooling_type but lacks a usable context_length, embedding_ctx is Some(None). With LLMMAN_CONTEXT_LENGTH=0, ctx_size therefore remains Some(0) and this emits -b 0 -ub 0, despite zero being intended only as the --ctx-size “trained context” sentinel. Filter zero from the batch option too.

Integrating llmman into ~100 Ollama-API clients kept hitting the same
gaps. Each fix follows ollama's server/routes.go and llm/llama_server.go.

Embeddings: /api/embed and /api/embeddings ride on the backend's
/v1/embeddings with ollama's semantics (truncate, dimensions, keep_alive,
bounded fan-out, NaN/Inf rejection). An embedding model is detected by
its GGUF pooling_type key and loaded with --embeddings and a per-slot
batch, which also fixes the 501 /v1/embeddings gave.

Model management: /api/copy is `llmman cp` over the wire. /api/create
supports `from` (alias) and `files` (GGUFs uploaded via /api/blobs, built
like `llmman build`); Modelfile fields are refused with a 400 naming
them. A loaded model whose tag now points elsewhere is evicted.

Content-Type: the Ollama routes accept a JSON body under any header, as
gin's ShouldBindJSON does, instead of a 415. A cross-site non-JSON POST
from an origin CORS wouldn't allow is refused (it skips preflight).

Also fixes `llmman cp`/`build` storing a bare destination verbatim while
run/rm/show resolve one to docker.io/ai/, so `cp gemma4 mine && run
mine` never worked.

  • This treats every local 5xx as a context overflow.

  • This treats every local 5xx—including OOMs, temporary backend failures, and the synthetic 502 used for transport timeouts—as an overflow. If the input is long enough, an unrelated transient failure can therefore cause a retry with silently truncated user input. Restrict this branch to recognized llama-server context/batch-limit messages; Ollama likewise classifies specific error text rather than all server errors.
