Streaming and a fix for requests that never finished (mostly turns with a picture).
- Tool calls stream as they are written (OpenAI
tool_callsdeltas, Anthropicinput_json_delta); keep-alives while a long prompt is read; progress in the server window andGET /status. - Closing the connection or pressing stop really stops the model (new engine
STOP). - The expert cache is sized after its slots are written: Windows only counts GPU memory once it is touched, so the old sizing could fill the card to 0 MiB and a request then stalled while the driver paged. The prompt chunk now shrinks instead of allocating on top of a full card, and the image encoder warms up before the engine starts.
Run START-HERE.bat once and it picks this engine up by itself (setup now requires 0.1.2).
The ready-made Strata engine for Windows (RTX 30 / 40 / 50: sm_86, sm_89, sm_120 + PTX), CUDA 13.0, NVIDIA driver 580 or newer. Contents: strata.exe (the engine), strata-vision.exe (the optional image encoder), BUILD.json.
