lemonade benchand shared via claim link at https://bench.lemonade-server.ai. - Zero-shot classification is available via
POST /v1/classifywith alabelsparameter, and as azero_shotcondition type in router policies. - TheNoise image generation gains a CUDA backend for Linux x86_64 alongside existing ROCm support.
- New container backends for AMD Strix Halo (gfx1151) — including
ds4:rocm,rocmfpx:rocm,gufo:rocm, andllamacpp:halobox— bring GPU-accelerated inference to the platform. POST /v1/systemoneforwards typed questions to a decision model, with support for router-classified choices and SystemOne zero-shot classification.
Breaking Changes
⚠️ These notes are AI generated and will be revised by a human ⚠️
- The
/modelsAPI response no longer includesimage_defaultsoraudio_defaults; their values are now underrecipe_options, so external clients reading the old fields will find them absent. - The
/modelsresponse includes auser_configurableboolean flag on backend descriptor options; consumers that assumed all listed options are editable may show technical knobs likesoft_pixel_cap,pcm_sample_rate, andpcm_channelsto users. - FLM v1.0.11 (bumped from v1.0.7) returns
max_tokensexactly as requested rather thanmax_tokens+1, so chat completions that relied on the extra token will now stop one token early. - FLM v1.0.11 streams token usage counts only when
stream_options.include_usageis set; without it the server's/api/v1/statsendpoint records no token counts or throughput for FLM streams. - FLM v1.0.11 returns 400 for previously-accepted invalid fields including invalid
tool_choice, forced tool calls on small Qwen3 models (up to 1.7B), conversation history on *-flash models, and requests with no messages or prompt.
