feat(cli): add verified downloads and signed publisher releases - #1
Adds the first executable Modelswarm CLI prototype: publishers can create and sign model releases, readers can verify and resume downloads over BitTorrent v2/HTTP, and the Hugging Face SDK can fetch through a local endpoint. Root docs and landing-page copy now describe the experimental implementation and its remaining scope.
Changes
Add the isolated engine experiment and installable Python/libtorrent CLI with portable manifest v0, make/verify/pull, conservative format selection, checkpoints and verified cache snapshots.
Add a loopback Hugging Face endpoint for registered releases and verified public upstream fallback. Private/gated models are excluded; downloaded files are verified before serving.
Add the optional pinned PKC bridge, local publisher keys, profile initialization/recovery/renewal, signed publication, version/CID resolution and signed endpoint registration. Keys stay local, and readers verify publisher identity, record CID, signature and manifest digest.
Exercise persistent profiles across clean restarts and hard kills, separate reader nodes, and a recorded 491 MB cross-machine download. Harden path collisions, unsupported sources, explicit peer policy, empty pins and encoded publication/IPFS size limits with regressions.
Harden warm endpoint reads, source traversal, VCS/HF metadata exclusion, selected path aliases, signed peer policy and timeout handling. Validate safetensors structure before ambiguous magic-byte signatures; preserve risky filename rules. Stabilize restart and request-log fixtures and document pinned model reproduction commands.
Verification
Full Python suite: 115 passed, no skips, with real private PKC/Kubo fixtures. Subsequent final corrections passed 55 affected cache/CLI/endpoint/input tests and 54 format/CLI/endpoint/upstream tests, with no skips. Prototype tests: 8 passed; the full 128 MiB experiment passed source combinations, corrupt-source recovery and SIGKILL/resume.
Bridge protocol suite: 22 passed, no skips. Repository lint, TypeScript, production build and advisory Knip passed.
Real Git clones/worktrees and metadata-free sources produced identical manifests. HTTP pulls and real key generation through /tmp passed; six formerly blocked safetensors cases were served successfully by the endpoint.
Built and inspected the wheel, installed it in a fresh environment, and exercised make, HTTP pull and verify. Chromium checks passed at 1440px and 375px with no horizontal overflow or console errors.
The branch merges cleanly with current master. Detailed evidence, corrected failed regressions and reproduction guidance are in cli/PR-READINESS.md and the milestone evaluation documents.
Scope and limits
This completes the experimental CLI/profile slice, not the full publishing/web-client milestone or a production release. The cross-machine evidence uses two Macs at one site over Tailscale and a private swarm; public-internet/NAT/DHT operation is unverified. Linux/Windows installation, other model consumers, profile migration/revocation, hosted onboarding, mirror records, a public demo and the read-only web client remain future work. The pinned SDK's restart workarounds are documented. Upstream HTTPS fallback still uses a total timeout and restarts interrupted files from zero; native registered-manifest transfers retain checkpoint resume. Native resume rechecking consumes the configured timeout, so large partial files or slow disks require a larger budget; checkpoint shutdown and synchronous verification can extend wall time. Local test results do not imply an automated CLI test workflow in GitHub CI. Older manifests that misclassified the affected safetensors files need regeneration; signed releases require a new version.
Merging to master publishes the updated static landing page through the existing Vercel integration; it does not deploy a public model node or publish a Python package.
Summary by CodeRabbit
New Features
Added an experimental command-line tool to create and verify model manifests, download files from peers or HTTP sources, and resume interrupted transfers.
Added a local Hugging Face-compatible endpoint with verified downloads and public-model fallback.
Added signed publisher releases, including publishing, profile management, and pulls by release version or identifier.
Added verified cache support and checks that flag potentially unsafe or mismatched model files.
Documentation
Updated project status, roadmap, setup guidance, and prototype limitations to reflect available features and remaining work.
Improvements
Roadmap entries now distinguish completed prototype work from remaining work.
profile-renew now signs only for the minter the owner names and refuses implausible sequence jumps, since both values come from the RPC node. Adds a two-node fixture and tests in which a separate reader node resolves the publisher over a private swarm, including an HTTP-free pull.
Adds a manual cross-machine test: a reader node and CLI on a second machine resolve a signed release through a private swarm and pull a real 491 MB model over BitTorrent from the publisher, including after a publisher restart and renewal. Records the run in the evaluation.
No actionable comments were generated in the recent review.
Walkthrough
The PR adds an experimental Modelswarm CLI for creating manifests, verifying and downloading model files, publishing and resolving signed releases, and serving models through a local Hugging Face-compatible endpoint. It also adds a separate download-engine prototype, integration tests, evaluation records, and updated project-status documentation.

This adds an experimental CLI for verified model downloads and signed releases. The earlier concerns about incomplete manifests after a failed directory scan and about repeated whole-release hashing on file requests are addressed in the current code and tests. No merge-blocking issue remains. Public-network and non-macOS operation are still unverified, as the PR itself states.

Explanation
The title "feat(cli): add verified downloads and signed publisher releases" matches the main change. The PR adds an experimental Modelswarm CLI with make/verify/pull commands, verified BitTorrent v2/HTTP downloads with checkpoints, and signed publisher releases through a PKC bridge. It also adds a local Hugging Face endpoint, which the title does not mention. That omission is acceptable because the title covers the primary change. The title is concise, specific, and follows a conventional commit style.

Bug: every file GET re-hashes the whole cached model. For a registered or signed model, obtain always calls pull_release (under the single self.transfers lock), even when snapshot/<path> is already cached. pull_release → cached_files (cache.py_check_snapshot + per-entry _verify_file) SHA-256s every cached blob, then copies the requested blob to staging, runs check_file, runs materialize (which runs _check_snapshot again), and obtain then calls check_file once more.
Scenario: a fully cached multi-GB, multi-shard model is served with serve --manifest. The HF SDK sends GET /resolve/<commit>/config.json. The whole model is read and hashed several times before the first response byte. The SDK's default ~10 s read timeout fires, and every other file request repeats the work, serialized behind the lock.
Suggest a fast path that serves an already-materialized snapshot file after verifying only that file (or caching a verified marker), and avoids re-verifying unrelated blobs per request.
The reason will be displayed to describe this comment to others. Learn more.
Bug: serve --timeout above 3600 crashes startup unless --no-upstream is set.--timeout is also the per-file BitTorrent limit passed to pull_release, and serve only checks that it is finite and positive (~line 420). This line passes the same value unclamped into PublicHub, and upstream.py:102-103 raises ValueError("upstream timeout must be between 0 and 3600 seconds") for anything larger.
Scenario: modelswarm serve --manifest big.json --timeout 7200 for a large local model exits at startup with an error about the upstream timeout, which the user never set. --no-upstream makes the same command work.
Suggest min(args.timeout, 3600) for PublicHub, a separate --upstream-timeout, or validating and documenting the cap in serve.
The reason will be displayed to describe this comment to others. Learn more.
Bug: upstream fallback can never finish a file that needs longer than the timeout, and retries restart from zero.obtain() sets one whole-file deadline (time.monotonic() + self.timeout, default 300 s) at ~line 376. On expiry the finally here deletes the .incoming- temp file, and the requests send no Range header, so nothing is kept or resumed.
Scenario: default serve, SDK fallback for a 5 GB safetensors shard over a 100 Mbit/s link (~400 s). Every attempt returns 504 at 300 s, discards the partial download, and starts from byte 0 on retry. It never completes, whereas the torrent path does save progress, as the pull --timeout help describes.
Suggest keeping the partial file and resuming with Range, or making the deadline an idle/stall timeout rather than a whole-file limit.
The reason will be displayed to describe this comment to others. Learn more.
Bug: serve --release has no preflight for explicit peers blocked by the signed-release IP policy.pull rejects such a peer up front (cli.py ~170-177, naming the peer and --allow-local-sources). Here serve only parses the peers. obtain then passes allow_local_sources=False for pkc releases, and engine.download_file applies public_source_filter(), which silently drops private addresses such as 192.168.0.0/16.
Scenario: serve --release pkc://… --peer 192.168.1.10:6881 --no-discovery starts without complaint. Every GET of a release file then stalls for the full --timeout and returns 504 "Download or upstream request timed out", with no hint about the policy or --allow-local-sources. The same arguments to pull fail immediately with a clear message.
Suggest running the same peer check at serve startup for each --release.
The reason will be displayed to describe this comment to others. Learn more.
Bug: make includes Hugging Face's .cache/huggingface bookkeeping files in the signed manifest. This walk never prunes directories, and the only name filter (manifest.py ~line 67) rejects .git, .hg, .svn, .modelswarm and .pad. .cache is not excluded anywhere.
Scenario: hf download org/model --local-dir ./model, then modelswarm make ./model …. The directory contains .cache/huggingface/.gitignore, .cache/huggingface/download/*.metadata (commit, etag and timestamps local to that download) and possibly .lock files. All of them are hashed and listed in the signed manifest. The manifest then differs between machines and runs, and every consumer downloads the junk files.
Suggest skipping .cache/huggingface during the walk (or adding an exclude option).

- Line 35: Update the real-model reproduction statement in the evaluation
document: identify the Qwen source repository and include the commands used for
the recorded runs, or remove the claim that the experiment is reproducible from
the linked README.md. Keep the commands and source identifiers consistent with

Review comments at @cli/src/modelswarm/cli.py:
- Line 59: Update the os.walk call in the directory-scanning loop to supply an
onerror callback that raises the scan error. Ensure any unreadable source
subdirectory aborts manifest creation instead of allowing make to write and
report success with incomplete paths.
Review comments at @cli/src/modelswarm/endpoint.py:
- Line 120: Update the endpoint GET flow around pull_release to serve selected
files from a warm local release without running whole-release cached_files
hashing or materialize scanning for each request. Preserve snapshot structure
checks and verify the requested file before serving it; do not hash unrelated
payloads or republish an existing snapshot.
Review comments at @cli/tests/test_persistence.py:
- Around line 91-95: Update the abrupt-restart assertion in the persistence test
so it does not unconditionally wait for ERR_COMMUNITY_ALREADY_STARTED when the
restart may finish after the stale-lock window. Accept either held-lock refusal
followed by profile-start or automatic hosting, or record the kill and restart
timing and require refusal only when the restart completes within the 10-second
window.
Review comments at @prototypes/download-engine/experiment.py:
- Around line 85-86: Ensure the HTTP handler’s finally block appends its event
before run reads requests or evaluates results: wait for all active request
handlers to finish, then snapshot their events before assertions and report
writes. Do not rely on server_close alone to join the daemon request threads.

Avoid whole-release verification for each file GET.
For a warm local release, even a config.json GET calls pull_release, which hashes all cached files through cached_files and scans them again during materialize. The endpoint repeats this work for every requested shard while holding self.transfers. A multi-shard SDK download therefore adds quadratic aggregate hashing and delays unrelated requests.

Bug: make fails on a model directory that contains a .git directory.
The walk only prunes .cache/huggingface. Every other file goes through validate_relative_path, which rejects any segment named .git, .hg, .svn, .modelswarm or .pad (cli/src/modelswarm/manifest.py:67-68).
Scenario: a publisher runs git clone https://huggingface.co/org/model, then modelswarm make model/ -o release.json --name org/model --license mit. The walk reaches model/.git/HEAD, raises ValueError("unsafe or nonportable file path: '.git/HEAD'"), and make exits without writing a manifest. Cloning with git is a normal way to get a Hugging Face model. The docs (cli/README.md:21) and tests only cover the .cache/huggingface pruning, not VCS directories.
Suggested fix: also prune the reserved VCS directories during the walk (for example .git, .hg, .svn from directories, as is done for .cache/huggingface), or document that make requires a clean export. This touches the walk logic and needs a regression test, so no suggestion block.

Bug: a symlinked ancestor anywhere above the cache root makes every cache and keygen command fail._directories walks every component from / and lstats each one, so it rejects system symlinks as well as symlinks inside the cache tree. cache_root deliberately keeps the path lexical (os.path.abspath), and nothing resolves the trusted prefix first.
Scenarios:
On macOS, /tmp and /var are symlinks to /private/..., so --cache-dir /tmp/ms, MODELSWARM_CACHE=$TMPDIR/ms or keygen -o /tmp/key.json raise ValueError: cache/source ancestor is not a real directory.
On Fedora Silverblue and CoreOS, /home is a symlink to /var/home. A home directory spelled /home/<user> makes the default ~/.cache/modelswarm/hub fail.
The tests work around this with Path(...).resolve(), but real users get no such workaround. Resolve the user-supplied root (for example os.path.realpath of its existing parent) first, and reject symlinks only from the cache root downward.
The reason will be displayed to describe this comment to others. Learn more.
Bug: the forced recheck on resume counts against --timeout, so large partial files can stop making progress.started is set at line 206, before checking. Line 211 sets needs_recheck = destination.exists() even when valid resume data was loaded, so every resume runs force_recheck() from piece 0. Sources are only attached by connect_sources() after the recheck finishes, and this timeout check ignores checking and ready.
Scenario: a 100+ GB partial GGUF on a disk that hashes about 330 MB/s, with the default --timeout 300. The recheck alone takes about 300 s, so every run hits stopping = "timeout" during checking and never reaches file_ready. Smaller partials lose a growing share of each run's time to rechecking.
Start the timeout clock once ready becomes true, or skip the timeout check while checking or not ready.

Bug: a valid .safetensors file can be classified as pickle and blocked.
The pickle magic check (prefix[0] == 0x80 and 2 <= prefix[1] <= 5, line 114) runs before the safetensors structural check and ignores the .safetensors suffix. A safetensors file begins with an 8-byte little-endian header length. A header length of 640, 896, 1152 or 1408 bytes starts with 0x80 followed by 0x02–0x05, which matches the pickle magic. Header lengths in the hundreds of bytes are normal for small models and LoRA adapters.
Scenario: a LoRA adapter_model.safetensors with a 896-byte header. make records format: "pickle", pull skips it without --allow-unsafe, and the endpoint answers 403 FormatBlocked for it. A data-only weights file is treated as code-executing. I reproduced this with valid safetensors files at those four header lengths. A 600-byte header was correctly detected as safetensors.
Fix: run the _safetensors() structural check before the pickle magic test, or apply pickle_magic only when _safetensors fails.
The reason will be displayed to describe this comment to others. Learn more.
Server-side ValueErrors raised from Endpoint.obtain are returned to the client as a non-retryable 400 with the raw message.
Scenario: a user runs modelswarm pull <release> and, while it downloads, starts modelswarm serve on the same default cache. A cold SDK request goes through obtain → pull_release → release_lock. That raises ValueError("another pull is using this manifest and cache") (cli.py:152), and the client gets 400 BadRequest. The HF SDK does not retry 4xx, and the failure is transient.
Other ValueErrors reach the same handler:
A corrupt cached blob raises "cache/source file does not match manifest: <absolute path>" (cache.py:89), which leaks local paths to the client.
"no source for X; supply --peer ..." (engine.py:175) comes from server configuration, not from the request.
The OSError/RuntimeError handler just below already maps server-side failures to 502 with "see server log" so details stay hidden. Suggested fix: keep 400 only for request-parsing errors. Map ValueErrors raised by obtain to 503 for lock contention and to 502 with a generic message for the rest.
