Remove the vendored GGML and llama.cpp backend, CGO runner, Go model
implementations, and sample. llama-server (built from upstream llama.cpp via
FetchContent) is now the sole inference engine for GGUF-based models.
(Safetensor based models continue to run on the new MLX engine.) This allows
us to more rapidly pick up new capabilities and fixes from llama.cpp as they
come out.
On windows this now requires recent AMD driver versions to support ROCm v7 as
llama.cpp currently does not support building against v6.
* WIP - MLX backend with gemma3
* MLX: add cmake and go tag build toggles
To build the new MLX backend code:
cmake --preset MLX
cmake --build --preset MLX --parallel
cmake --install build --component MLX
go build -tags mlx .
Note: the main.go entrypoint for the MLX engine will change in a follow up commit.
* add experimental image generation runtime
* add experimental image generation runtime
* MLX: wire up cuda build for linux
* MLX: get dependencies correct and dedup
This is still too large for a unified github artifact, but is now "correct" for the mlx_cuda_v13
directory.
* fix relative link bug in dedup
* Add darwin build and readme
* add go build tag for mlx dependent code and wire up build_darwin.sh
* lint cleanup
* macos: build mlx for x86
This will be CPU only.
* cuda build instructions and fix drift from mlx bump
* stale comment
* Delete agent helper doc
* Clean up readme.md
* Revise README for tokenizer clarity and details
Updated README to clarify tokenizer functionality and removed correctness section.
