GuideAnts v0.9.19
Qwen 3.8 27B — curated install for Unsloth’s dense 27B vision model (262k context, hybrid thinking, in-GGUF draft-mtp), plus catalog-edit recovery when llama.cpp rejects a preset, clearer ReadWeb errors, and CWD-relative copy paths. AI / support images republished to GHCR for this cut.

Highlights
Qwen 3.8 27B
- Qwen 3.8 27B (
unsloth/Qwen3.8-27B-GGUF) in the curated llama catalog: vision mmproj, 262k native context, in-GGUF draft-mtp, and hybrid thinking withreasoning_effort(default xhigh) - Sampling defaults on the catalog row (temperature 1.0 / top_p 0.95 / top_k 20); Unsloth 4-bit typical 17–19GB RAM+VRAM (
UD-Q4_K_XL) - Needs the republished AI images from this release (older llama.cpp crashes on
draft-mtp/reasoning-preserve)
Local model catalog
- Saving a router preset no longer 502s after llama-server rejects unknown keys; unrecognized options are stripped on respawn so the editor can recover
no-mmprojis rewritten tommproj-auto=false
ReadWeb & notebook
- ReadWeb failures report the actual status (401 / 403 / 404 / 429 / 5xx / timeout) instead of a generic error
- GitHub hosts are not auto-excluded; excluded-host blocks are honored before fetch
- Copy-path and attachment paths are CWD-relative so pasted paths work in chat tools
Images
- AI / support images republished to GHCR (
:main,:latest, and:v0.9.19) for this cut
Notes
- Apple Silicon: prefer the slim AI backend (
linux/amd64under emulation). - Qwen 3.8 27B needs the republished AI images from this release (newer llama.cpp).
