The office-readiness audit found the foundation missing: configured API keys
were decorative. Any bearer — or none — passed every model endpoint, per-key
rate limits existed only in the form, and all real traffic was recorded as
"anonymous", leaving the per-key spend table permanently blank.
A middleware on the model surface (/v1/*, /route, /mcp) now enforces keys:
- no keys configured → open mode as before (the console already warns);
- keys exist → Bearer or x-api-key must match (401 invalid_api_key);
- per-key rate_per_min → fixed one-minute window, 429 with Retry-After;
- NEW per-key monthly_budget_usd → 429 insufficient_quota once the account's
month-to-date spend crosses the ceiling;
- the matched account rides the request into stats — the keys table's spend
columns finally see real traffic.
Month-to-date spend is tracked per account in stats and persisted in the
totals sidecar with a watermark (no double counting across restarts). The
key dialog gains a budget field; the table shows "budget $N/mo" in red once
exhausted. All verified live: 401 wrong/missing key, 200 + attribution with
the right key, 429 + Retry-After over the limit, 429 insufficient_quota on
the second request past a $0.000001 budget.
Also: the dashboard shows the OpenRouter credit balance (GET
/api/v1/credits via the stored key, cached 5 min, hidden without a key, red
under $5 — live: $16.18), the server drains connections on Ctrl-C instead
of dropping them, request bodies are capped at 32 MB, and docs/DEPLOY(.ru)
cover office deployment: systemd/launchd/Windows service, nginx/caddy TLS,
security checklist, backups. 10 strings ×7 languages.
Fifteen changes aimed at the first day of real use:
- Import and media jobs persist to <data>/jobs-*.json and reload on start
(running ones settle as errors); the Register button no longer vanishes
because the gateway restarted.
- Docker ships the cortiq binary (built in the builder stage) — local .cmf
chat models and image/video generation now work in containers, where
auto-install never could (no cargo in the runtime image). libvulkan1 added
for optional GPU offload.
- Open admin console on 0.0.0.0 without a token now warns in the log and
shows a dismissible banner — the VPS footgun is at least labeled.
- "Restart gateway" button in Settings: stops managed model servers, spawns
a fresh copy (bind retried while the port frees), Docker relies on the
container restart policy instead.
- Dashboard "System" panel: CPU sparkline + load, RAM (with the gateway's
own RSS), free disk at the models dir — sampled by sysinfo every 2 s.
- Featured model cards warn "not enough disk" / "may not fit in RAM" before
the download, from the same live snapshot.
- Log viewer in the sidebar: a 500-line in-memory ring fed by a second
ANSI-free tracing layer; filter, level, pause, copy.
- Update check: crates.io polled twice a day, the console shows an
"update available" notice.
- Media generations queue up (with position shown) instead of being
rejected; progress gained an honest ETA from measured throughput.
- Generation gallery under the image/video tabs: lazy PPM thumbnails,
click to reopen with seed/steps, delete.
- Playground chat is a real dialogue now: history is resent, bubbles,
Clear, Cmd/Ctrl+Enter.
- "Connect your app" snippets (curl / Python / JS) on the keys page, with
the real key inlined right after creation.
- One-click benchmark on the Models page via `cortiq bench --json`.
- Config export now downloads the actual gateway.toml (comments intact);
import accepts TOML (validated, hot-reloaded) and the legacy JSON.
- Streaming token counts are exact when the model server provides usage
(cortiq-server patch, shipped separately); the gateway fallback now
counts content chunks (1/token on cortiq) instead of chars/4.
Wizard's Finish lands on the Playground. 37 new strings in all 7 languages.
The infosave collection now ships media models (Lumina-Image-2.0, MiniMax-H3
Turbo) that cortiq runs via `imagine`/`animate` CLI, not `cortiq serve`. The
gateway grows a media API: local .cmf files are classified by `cortiq info`
(chat/image/video, cached), generations run as tracked jobs with step progress
parsed from stdout, one at a time, cancellable, outputs under <data>/media.
The playground becomes three tabs. Image: width/height/steps/CFG/seed, live
progress, result rendered from P6 PPM to a canvas in the browser (PNG export
via toBlob). Video: frames/steps/quality/seed plus optional first/last
keyframes (rasterized to PPM client-side); the MJPEG+PCM AVI is decoded in JS
and played on a canvas synced to the wav — no ffmpeg on either side (mp4 remux
happens opportunistically when ffmpeg exists). A metrics card shows resolution,
steps, seed, total time, time per step/frame and file size.
Chat metrics: the local cortiq server sends no usage chunk in streams, so
token counts showed 0/0. tap_stream now injects one OpenAI-shaped usage event
ahead of [DONE] with the gateway's ~4-chars/token estimate, flagged
`cortiq_estimated`; the UI renders it as "≈ N / M" and adds tok/s and
time-to-first-token. Registration skips media packs (a `cortiq serve` entry
for a diffusion model would only fail) in both Register and the wizard's
Finish.
36 new UI strings translated across all 7 languages.
- The gateway can now run several local .cmf models at once: a [[cmf.servers]]
list, one supervised `cortiq serve` per entry on its own port, each registered
in the pool and independently routable/pinnable. The single legacy
local_model/local_port still works (back-compat via effective_servers()).
- Settings → Local models is now a rows editor (id · path · port + check · threads
· GPU) with add/remove and per-server serving status.
- Deleting a managed model stops just its server and removes its file — unless
another model still points at the same file (shared-file guard).
Run models in the CMF (.cmf) format locally, via the native `cortiq`
CLI from crates.io — no Python and no external model server.
- cmf_runtime: install/update `cortiq-cli` from crates.io, spawn and
health-check `cortiq serve` as a managed local backend.
- import: model-import jobs shell out to the native `cortiq convert`
(HF repo -> .cmf, quant mapped Q8_2F->q8_2f / Q8_ROW->q8 / Q4->q4);
the Python converter is used only for advanced/exotic options.
- pipeline: local-first routing — serve from the local CMF model when
the router is disabled/unreachable, with a "local only" hard switch.
- registry/state: register the local CMF server as an OpenAI provider
and track local candidates.
- config: data-dir resolution + CmfCfg (auto-install/update, managed
server, host/port/model) and relaxed validation for the managed model.
- admin + settings UI (en/ru): "Local models (CMF)" settings card.
- cache.rs: cosine-similarity store (threshold, TTL, ring buffer), partitioned by
routing signature; tracks hit rate and model cost saved
- pipeline: embed routing text, look up before the model call (route_source=cache on
hit), insert successful responses; stats record cache hits
- config [cache] + admin settings card; dashboard shows hit-rate and savings
- embedding model resolved from the pool (or first kind="embedding")
