Slipstream 0.3.5 — dense Metal catalog (Dolphin3-Cyber-8B)

Adds a dense (non-MoE) Metal path so small full-load GGUFs can Start without a PGRN sidecar, and catalogs Dolphin3-Cyber-8B.

Why

Slipstream’s Metal start previously required a .pgrn convert. That is correct for MoE expert streaming (Qwen 35B daily driver) and wrong for dense Llama-class models: there are no experts to stream.

Changes

  • Catalog: dolphin3-cyber-8bRavichandranJ/Dolphin3-Cyber-8B-GGUF Q4_K_M (optional Q5_K_M row), not soon
  • dense: true → Start when GGUF present; skip convert messaging
  • start_server: if dense and no PGRN → full Metal (--gpu-layers 99, --jinja, no --pgrn*); MoE path unchanged
  • Dense sampler defaults: temp 0.7 / top_p 0.9 (conversational); coding MoE stays temp 0
  • i18n EN+DE: note.dolphin3, st.denseReady
  • Docs: docs/DOLPHIN3_CYBER_8B.md + smoke numbers

Smoke (internal SSD, owned PID)

GGUF ~/Modelle/dolphin3-cyber-8b-q4/…Q4_K_M.gguf (~4.6 GiB)
Load ~5 s to /health
RSS ~5.1 GiB
Prefill / decode ~145 / ~27.6 tok/s (short chat)
PGRN no

Qwen 35B MoE path untouched. One serve only (CRASH_AVOIDANCE).
