Llama.cpp v1.0 fixes critical UI tool bug

Llama.cpp v1.0 patches UI bug where tools never worked with working directories

Deep Dive

If you've been seeing a working directory chip that did nothing, llama.cpp b10329 fixes that. The chip used to appear whenever the server exposed any builtin tool — even if it was just get_datetime or all filesystem tools were turned off. Tools now declare whether they actually resolve paths against the working directory, and the WebUI only shows the chip and enables /cwd when at least one such tool is served and left enabled.

Key Points
  • Llama.cpp v1.0 (b10329) fixes a UI bug where tools never worked with working directories
  • Tools now declare path resolution and permissions, enabling /cwd only when relevant tools are enabled
  • New builds include CUDA 13, Vulkan for Windows, SYCL variants, and continued support for Apple Silicon and ROCm

Why It Matters

Stabilizes the Llama.cpp WebUI for developers using built-in tools, preventing confusion from non-functional UI elements.
