What this adds

The Apple Core AI provider — run inference through Apple's on-device foundation models as a first-class mesh provider on macOS Apple Silicon (experimental).

Capabilities

  • Apple system-model inference — an experimental provider backed by Apple's on-device foundation models, exposed to the mesh like any other backend.
  • Provider-host lifecycle APIs across every SDK — Rust, Swift, Node.js, and Kotlin — to start, supervise, and stop a provider host (start_provider_host, ProviderHostHandle, ProviderRuntimeOptionsNative).
  • Packaged provider runtimes — discovery, manifest validation, caching, downloading, and secure (signed) installation of provider executables, with a providers/apple package + notarization-ready packaging script.
  • OpenAI-compatible loopback serving — streaming, structured output, tool calls, and status reporting through the standard OpenAI surface.
  • Provider-aware mesh routing — load-based target selection, capacity metrics, failover, and unhealthy-route withdrawal; explicit-only provider models are excluded from auto/degrade candidate sets so they're never picked implicitly.
  • Network UI — Apple model recognition and provider load reporting.

Which PRs this replaces

Collapses the stacked Apple Core AI patch queue into this single PR against current main:
#1249 → #1250 → #1252 → #1255 → #1256 → #1259 → #1260 → #1261 → #1281

Those PRs were stacked on a base that main has since rewritten (Nick flagged #1252 as unmergeable — 16 conflicting paths). This branch reconciles the full stack onto current main as one reviewable change and closes the originals.

Closes #1249, #1250, #1252, #1255, #1256, #1259, #1260, #1261, #1281

Rebase reconciliation onto the rewritten base

  • Affinity: main relocated target selection into the shared mesh-llm-routing crate. Added affinity_selected to the shared TargetSelection and set it in select_model_target_from_keys. Provider-preference routing reads it: a plain load-balanced pick may be redirected to a provider host, but an affinity/sticky decision stays authoritative.
  • Ingress / transport: reapplied provider routing onto main's refactor — route_model_request now lives in transport_route_model.rs, and the MoA degrade path moved to context_selection::select_degrade_model.
  • FFI: ported the provider-host bindings into main's modular mesh-llm-ffi layout and regenerated the Swift bindings from the UDL.
  • Cleanup: dropped stale merge duplicates — main independently added the early-topology audit-logging helpers; also removed an unused provider-supervisor variant and KV-cache-disk tests main had already deleted.

Nick's review (#1252)

  1. Credential scrubbing — the provider process previously scrubbed only a fixed denylist of secret names, still leaking everything else (AWS/GCP/Azure keys, org secrets, *_TOKEN) to a downloaded provider executable. Switched to clear-and-allowlist: the child environment is cleared and only a small set of non-secret variables is re-added. Added credential-scrubbing unit tests.
  2. CI — added a job that builds providers/apple and runs its Swift tests (just apple::build / just apple::test) on the macOS platform-check row.
  3. Mergeability — resolved by rebasing the whole stack onto current main.

Verification

  • mesh-llm-host-runtime lib suite: 2585 passed, 0 failed
  • mesh-llm-routing tests + new credential-scrubbing tests: pass
  • mesh-llm-ffi and mesh-llm-nodejs compile
  • Swift bindings regenerated from the UDL (no hand edits)

Release impact (for reviewers)

Merging this PR does not change the release process or its artifacts.

  • .github/workflows/release.yml is untouched. The release still produces the same artifact set: backend-neutral host + one native runtime + manifests, plus the existing SwiftPM / crates.io / packaging lanes.
  • The Apple provider is source-only here: it compiles in CI and is exercised by tests, but no release archive ships it.
  • The new package-release.sh codesign/notarization checks are gated behind MESH_LLM_PROVIDER_RUNTIME_ROOT (scripts/package-release.sh:757). No workflow sets it, so release lanes stage zero provider bundles and the checks never run. scripts/tests/test_package_release.py (9/9) and test_install_sh.py (27/27) pass on this tree.
  • The new mesh-llm-provider-runtime crate is cross-platform (no Apple-only deps), inherits the workspace version, and is appended to scripts/publish-crates.sh; cargo run -p xtask -- repo-consistency publish-crates passes. Routine --dry-run on the first release that publishes it.

Next step (follow-up, not this PR): set up Developer ID signing + notarization in CI. When a release later opts into shipping the Apple provider bundle (via MESH_LLM_PROVIDER_RUNTIME_ROOT), package-release.sh intentionally hard-fails unless the runtime is Developer ID signed and notarized — that requires an Apple Developer Program membership, a Developer ID Application cert stored as CI secrets, and an App Store Connect API key for xcrun notarytool. Until then, this gate cannot fire.

Collapses the Apple Core AI provider patch queue
(#1249#1250#1252#1255#1256#1259#1260#1261#1281)
into a single change against current main, replacing the unmergeable
stacked branches.

Rebase reconciliation onto the rewritten base:
- Add `affinity_selected` to the shared `mesh-llm-routing::TargetSelection`
  (main relocated affinity selection into the shared crate) and set it in
  `select_model_target_from_keys`; provider-preference routing reads it to
  decide when a plain load-balanced pick may be redirected to a provider
  host, while an affinity/sticky decision stays authoritative.
- Reapply provider routing onto main's refactored ingress/transport
  modules: `route_model_request` now lives in `transport_route_model.rs`,
  and the MoA degrade path moved to `context_selection::select_degrade_model`.
- Port the FFI provider-host bindings into main's modular `mesh-llm-ffi`
  layout (handles.rs / request_types.rs / node.rs) and regenerate the Swift
  bindings from the UDL.
- Drop stale duplicates surfaced by the merge: main independently added the
  early-topology audit-logging helpers, plus an unused provider-supervisor
  variant and KV-cache-disk tests main had already removed.

Address Nick's review on #1252:
- Provider process environment: replace the secret-name denylist with a
  clear-and-allowlist scrub so a downloaded provider executable never
  inherits host credentials (AWS/GCP/Azure keys, org secrets, *_TOKEN);
  add credential-scrubbing unit tests.
- Add CI that builds `providers/apple` and runs its Swift tests on the
  macOS unit platform-check row.

Verification: mesh-llm-host-runtime lib suite (2585 passed), mesh-llm-routing
tests, and the credential-scrubbing tests pass; mesh-llm-ffi and
mesh-llm-nodejs compile.

431-449: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Restrict provider-worker HTTP routability to provider-backed models.

PeerInfo::accepts_http_inference() enables a Worker when any provider runtime is ready. http_routable_models() then exposes every model from hosted_models or serving_models. Provider advertisement preserves unrelated entries in both lists, so a worker with an Apple runtime can expose non-provider models through routes_http_model(), contrary to the split-worker contract. Filter provider-worker results to ready provider model IDs, including the same public-ID mapping used by routable_models().

90-99: 🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Avoid the panic path in compare_candidates.

resolve never validates self.release_manifest. ProviderRuntimeReleaseManifest has public fields, so a caller can build one directly or deserialize it without from_json_str. A non-semver version then reaches Version::parse(...).expect(...) and panics instead of returning an error.

Either validate the release manifest in resolve, or make the comparison tolerant.

🛡️ Proposed fix
 fn compare_candidates(left: &Candidate, right: &Candidate) -> Ordering {
-    let left_version = Version::parse(&left.artifact.version).expect("validated runtime version");
-    let right_version = Version::parse(&right.artifact.version).expect("validated runtime version");
-    right_version
-        .cmp(&left_version)
+    let left_version = Version::parse(&left.artifact.version).ok();
+    let right_version = Version::parse(&right.artifact.version).ok();
+    right_version

         .then_with(|| source_rank(&left.source).cmp(&source_rank(&right.source)))
         .then_with(|| left.artifact.id.cmp(&right.artifact.id))
 }

Do not release a reserved port before host startup.

free_local_port drops the listener before MeshNode::start binds the port. Another process can claim the port during that interval. Then this example fails startup after a successful port probe.

Use the builder’s OS-assigned ephemeral-port mode, if supported, or retain the reservation until the host binds it.

Gate the system model ID assertions on a documented system model version.

isSystemModelID returns false when versionedSystemModelID is nil. That value is nil outside the macOS 26 and 27 release bands, so the unconditional "apple/system" assertion can fail. Move both positive assertions inside the existing conditional.

Run the signing checks off the async runtime thread.

run_policy_command uses the blocking std::process::Command::output. validate_provider_platform_policy is called from the async start_apple_provider_supervisor, so each codesign and spctl invocation blocks a Tokio worker thread. spctl --assess can contact Apple's notarization service, so the block can last seconds and there is no timeout. Move the checks to tokio::process::Command with a timeout, or wrap the whole validation in tokio::task::spawn_blocking.

♻️ Proposed change (async command with timeout)
-async fn run_policy_command(program: &str, arguments: &[OsString], label: &str) -> Result<String> {
-    let output = std::process::Command::new(program)

Peer provider runtimes stay excluded from the published listing.

The local branch now publishes provider-backed models when the node role is Worker. The peer loop still requires NodeRole::Host, so a remote Apple provider peer admitted as a Worker is omitted from the listing even though peer.accepts_http_inference() now returns true for it. Use peer.http_routable_models() for the same reason the local branch was changed.

♻️ Proposed change

Block Apple provider advertisement on public meshes.

start_provider_for_openai_surface only checks is_client, and its context has no mesh-visibility policy. After a healthy sidecar reports apple/system as available, the supervisor adds local targets, upserts ready model descriptors, and calls regossip. A non-client node using public discovery or publication can therefore advertise apple/system. Pass an explicit visibility policy and suppress provider startup or advertisement on public meshes. Add coverage for the healthy-sidecar case.

🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Release the permit when cancellation arrives after the handover.

release() transfers the permit to the first waiter: it resumes that waiter's continuation and leaves occupied as true. If the waiter task is cancelled in the same window, cancelWaiter finds no entry, the resumed waiter reaches Line 45, and Task.checkCancellation() throws. acquire() then throws out of withPermit at Line 21, before the do block, so release() never runs. occupied stays true with no active operation, and every later withPermit call queues forever.

LoopbackHTTPServer.monitorDisconnect cancels the request task on client disconnect, so this window is reachable whenever a disconnect coincides with the completion of the previous request. The existing test in providers/apple/Tests/MeshAppleRuntimeTests/RuntimeTypesTests.swift (Lines 64-93) cancels the waiter while the first request still holds the permit, so it does not cover this race.

Hand the permit back when the resumed waiter is already cancelled.

🐛 Proposed fix
     let id = UUID()
     try await withTaskCancellationHandler {
-      await withCheckedContinuation { continuation in
+      let handedOver = await withCheckedContinuation { continuation in
         waiterOrder.append(id)
         waiters[id] = continuation
       }
-      try Task.checkCancellation()
+      if Task.isCancelled {
+        if handedOver { release() }
+        throw CancellationError()
+      }
     } onCancel: {
       Task { await self.cancelWaiter(id) }
     }

This requires the continuation value to distinguish the two resume paths: resume with true in release() and with false in cancelWaiter.

Constrain and validate the runtime entrypoint.

provider_runtime / entrypoint accepts absolute paths, .. traversal, and symlinks that resolve outside the provider bundle. tree_sha256(provider_runtime) does not hash that external executable. A non-executable file also passes is_file(). Require a normalized relative entrypoint that remains below provider_runtime and is executable before recording its attestation.

Deep-review and sidecar-hardening update

Reviewed and patched at head 3d1bf6086d5169bb57396bb1944ce84cea15aa2c.

Swift sidecar findings fixed

I did not find a classic permanent ARC retain cycle, but I found several leak-like retention and lifecycle defects:

  • The scheduler had an unbounded queue retaining continuations, tasks, prompts, and connections, plus a cancellation/permit-handoff race that could strand it occupied forever. The queue is now bounded at 64; saturation returns retryable provider_busy / HTTP 429; cancellation returns handed-off permits exactly once.
  • SSE failures did not send [DONE] or complete the connection. Error streams now terminate with [DONE] and a final send.
  • HTTP headers could grow without bound and slow readers had no deadline. Headers are capped at 64 KiB, rejected with 431, and incomplete reads time out after ten seconds.
  • A prewarmed, stateful LanguageModelSession could carry transcript state across requests. The prewarmed session is now single-use.
  • Core AI artifact references could be mutable or malformed. Swift parsing and packaging now require immutable 40- or 64-character ASCII commit hashes; malformed multi-@ references are rejected.
  • ZIP extraction now enforces actual expanded bytes, rather than trusting only ZIP metadata.
  • The macOS Bash 3.2 provider-free release path and executable modes were corrected.

Regression coverage was added for scheduler recovery and queue limits, 431 header rejection, SSE completion, single-use session behavior, immutable artifact references, extraction limits, and packaging behavior.

Verification

  • DEVELOPER_DIR=/Applications/Xcode-beta.app/Contents/Developer just apple::test: 23/23 passed.
  • python3 -m unittest scripts.tests.test_apple_package scripts.tests.test_package_release: 12/12 passed on macOS Bash 3.2.
  • cargo test -p mesh-llm-provider-runtime: 11/11 passed, plus doc tests.
  • cargo fmt --all --check: passed.
  • git diff --check: passed.

Merge recommendation

Do not merge yet. The current provider-free release path remains intact and its packaging tests pass, but these wider-PR blockers remain:

  1. High — Apple CI toolchain: the Apple package requires Swift tools 6.4, macOS 27, and full Xcode 27, while the current platform-unit row selects a macOS 15 runner without selecting the required toolchain (.github/workflows/ci-platform-checks-slice.yml, providers/apple/Package.swift).
  2. High — routing policy: Core AI identities such as apple/coreai/... and ordinary Hugging Face IDs can still enter auto, mesh, and MoA routing even though provider models are intended to be explicit-only (provider_policy.rs, docs/design/APPLE_RUNTIME.md).
  3. Medium — runtime signature trust: expected signing identifiers and notarization policy are partly supplied by the provider manifest itself, so direct SDK roots and alternate distribution paths are not independently anchored to the MeshLLM publisher identity (provider_supervisor/platform_policy.rs, mesh-llm-provider-runtime/src/manifest.rs).
  4. Medium — multi-model startup: provider resolution considers only the first requested model. A non-provider model before apple/system can filter out the Apple bundle and leave the Apple model on the native path (run_auto.rs).
  5. Medium — restore smoke: provider-bearing products add provider-runtimes/, but the canonical restore/smoke consumer still validates and recomposes only the provider-free layout (compose-product-bundle.py, restore-smoke-inputs/action.yml).
  6. Low — cache namespace: artifact ID .. passes validation and joins one directory above the configured cache root (manifest.rs, cache.rs).

This review covered the full 157-file diff, with deeper attention on the Swift lifecycle/resource paths, provider trust boundary, routing integration, and release packaging. It is not a claim that every changed line received equivalent manual depth.

Split Apple provider validation into a typed macOS platform row and map its semantic runner role through the centralized runner policy.

GitHub Actions runner-images Xcode 27 image label xcode-27 xcode-27-xlarge macos27

💡 Result:

As of August 25, 2026, Xcode 27 is available for GitHub Actions as a public preview [1][2]. GitHub has introduced a new support model where runner images are keyed to major Xcode versions rather than the underlying operating system [2][3]. To use the Xcode 27 preview, you must target the supported labels in your workflow YAML files [1][2]. The following labels are currently supported [2]: - xcode-27: Used for standard macOS runners [1][2]. - xcode-27-xlarge: Used for larger macOS runners [1][4]. Important considerations regarding this image: - Architecture Limitation: The Xcode 27 image is exclusively available on GitHub's arm64 macOS runners [2][3]. It is not supported on Intel-based runners [2][3]. - Support Model: Under the new support model, each image provides one major Xcode version [2][3]. This shift is intended to simplify targeting specific toolchains [2]. - Preview Status: As a public preview, the image may be subject to instability, and software inventory may change [1][2][3]. Queueing issues may also occur as capacity is balanced [1]. - Documentation: For the exact list of tools, SDK versions, and current software bill of materials, you should consult the official actions/runner-images repository [2][3]. Note that there is no macos27 label; the naming convention has moved specifically to these Xcode-based labels [2][3].

Use a valid Apple runner label.

The macos-apple role reaches runs-on as macos27. GitHub’s public Xcode 27 images use xcode-27 or xcode-27-xlarge, so the matrix can fail to start unless a self-hosted runner advertises macos27. Configure that runner with the required Apple toolchain, or use a supported label and update related documentation and tests.

Apple CI runner update

The Apple test lane is implemented at eaec6581e6e2e081d35b11323be2068f3a3265c6 as a dedicated typed macos-apple platform row. Its runner label is derived through central policy as runner_macos_apple -> macos27; unrelated macOS portable/unit rows retain their existing policy.

There is one required rollout dependency: PR validation intentionally loads select-ci-runners from protected main, so #1444 cannot introduce and consume its own new runner-policy output in the same PR. A bounded branch dispatch confirmed this boundary: it loaded the current main selector and failed before creating the Apple matrix job because runner_macos_apple does not exist on main yet.

Prerequisite PR: #1446

Boundary evidence: https://github.com/Mesh-LLM/mesh-llm/actions/runs/32908562559

Once #1446 lands, rerun the bounded #1444 macOS lane. The Apple CI blocker is not considered closed until that macos27 run passes.

Address review: macos27 is not a runner label GitHub hosts; the Xcode 27
image is labeled xcode-27 (actions/runner-images#14404) and runs a macOS
26.5 host with the macOS 27 SDK. Keep the role semantic and document the
toolchain-lane vs macOS-27-host distinction for #1444.
