Highlights

This release features 558 commits from 232 contributors (64 new)!

• Model Runner V2 is now the default for all dense models (#44443). Building on quantized-model support from the previous release, MRv2 is now the standard execution path, with new support for EVS (#46535), realtime embeddings (#46762), prefix caching for Mamba hybrid models (#42406), multimodal-prefix bidirectional attention (#46942), and dynamic speculative decoding compatible with full CUDA graphs (#45953).
• PagedAttention has been removed (#47361). The legacy attention implementation is deleted now that V1/MRv2 backends are the standard path.
• The Transformers modeling backend is now as fast as native vLLM (#47187), and gained FP8 MoE support (#46820), CUDA graph + embed scaling fixes (#48010), and migration of GPTBigCode/Starcoder2 (#30966) and RoBERTa (#47452).
• New models: LLaVA-OneVision-2 (#44785), Unlimited OCR (#46564, #47102), MOSS-Transcribe-Diarize (#47729), openai/privacy-filter (#41026), and Hy3 (#47192). GLM-5 / DeepSeek-V3.2 landed in the model zoo (#46808) with GLM-5.2 tuning, and MiniMax-M3 gained pipeline parallelism (#45810) and NVFP4 support (#46756).
• New Streaming Parser Engine (#46610) — a unified tool-call/reasoning parsing framework, with a new Kimi k2.5/k2.6/k2.7 parser and ports of seed_oss (#46314) and DeepSeek V4 (#45877). The Rust frontend continues to mature with HTTPS/mTLS (#45890), a DP supervisor (#47076), and profiler control routes (#46306).
• Universal speculative decoding for heterogeneous vocabularies (TLI) (#38174), plus new DSpark (#46995) and DFlash (#46770, #46853) drafters.
