Subject: [PATCH 01/23] vulkan: Implement top-k (#17418)

* vulkan: Implement top-k

Each pass launches workgroups that each sort 2^N elements (where N is usually 7-10)
and discards all but the top K. Repeat until only K are left. And there's a fast
path when K==1 to just find the max value rather than sorting.

* fix pipeline selection

* vulkan: Add N-ary search algorithm for topk

* microoptimizations

Subject: [PATCH 19/23] rpc : cache and reuse compute graphs (#15405)

Store the last computed graph and reuse it when possible.
Also do not return response from GRAPH_COMPUTE and assume it always
completes successfully. If this this is not the case, the server closes
the connection. This saves us a network round trip to the server.

Subject: [PATCH 22/23] model : Qwen3 Next (#16095)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

* Qwen3 Next - cleaned up version

* Whitespaces and stuff

* Correct minor errors

* Update src/llama-model.cpp

Co-authored-by: Sigbjørn Skjæret <sigbjorn.skjaeret@scala.com>

* Misc. fixes.

* Clean up code, add missing hybrid qualifier

* Did someone transpose the SOLVE_TRI result matrix? Perhaps...

* Whitespace

* Proper tensors for cb calls

* Use llama-graph.h vertical alignment

* BROKEN: chunking

* Set new tensors as inputs.

* Proper chunk logic

* It's the circle of life...

* More shenanigans for n_seq > 1

* Nail in the coffin?

* Fix Windows build

* Eh, one fails on Windows, the other fails on Mac... just use general capture.

* quant : cleanup

* model : cleanup

* qwen3 : cleanup

* cont : cleanup

* cont : cleanup

* ggml : revert change

* qwen3 : cleanup

* cont : cleanup

* Readd cmath

* qwen3 : fix typo

* Update convert_hf_to_gguf.py

Co-authored-by: Sigbjørn Skjæret <sigbjorn.skjaeret@scala.com>

* Usual suspects

* fix my bad suggestion

Subject: [PATCH 23/23] server : add Anthropic Messages API support (#17570)

* server : add Anthropic Messages API support

* remove -@pytest.mark.slow from tool calling/jinja tests

* server : remove unused code and slow/skip on test_anthropic_vision_base64_with_multimodal_model in test_anthropic_api.py

* server : removed redundant n field logic in anthropic_params_from_json

* server : use single error object instead of error_array in streaming response handler for /v1/chat/completions and use unordered_set instead of set in to_json_anthropic_stream()

* server : refactor Anthropic API to use OAI conversion

* make sure basic test always go first

* clean up

* clean up api key check, add test

+### POST `/v1/messages`: Anthropic-compatible Messages API
+
+Given a list of `messages`, returns the assistant's response. Streaming is supported via Server-Sent Events. While no strong claims of compatibility with the Anthropic API spec are made, in our experience it suffices to support many apps.
+
+*Options:*
+
+See [Anthropic Messages API documentation](https://docs.anthropic.com/en/api/messages). Tool use requires `--jinja` flag.
+
+`model`: Model identifier (required)
+
+`messages`: Array of message objects with `role` and `content` (required)
+
+`max_tokens`: Maximum tokens to generate (default: 4096)
+
+`system`: System prompt as string or array of content blocks
+
+`temperature`: Sampling temperature 0-1 (default: 1.0)
+
+`top_p`: Nucleus sampling (default: 1.0)
+
+`top_k`: Top-k sampling
+
+`stop_sequences`: Array of stop sequences
+
+`stream`: Enable streaming (default: false)
+
+`tools`: Array of tool definitions (requires `--jinja`)
+
+`tool_choice`: Tool selection mode (`{"type": "auto"}`, `{"type": "any"}`, or `{"type": "tool", "name": "..."}`)
+
+*Examples:*
+
+```shell
+curl http://localhost:8080/v1/messages \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -H "x-api-key: your-api-key" \
+  -d '{
+    "model": "gpt-4",
+    "max_tokens": 1024,
+    "system": "You are a helpful assistant.",
+    "messages": [
+      {"role": "user", "content": "Hello!"}
+    ]
+  }'
+```
+
+### POST `/v1/messages/count_tokens`: Token Counting
+
+Counts the number of tokens in a request without generating a response.
+
+Accepts the same parameters as `/v1/messages`. The `max_tokens` parameter is not required.
+
+*Example:*
+
+```shell
+curl http://localhost:8080/v1/messages/count_tokens \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{
+    "model": "gpt-4",
+    "messages": [
+      {"role": "user", "content": "Hello!"}
+    ]
+  }'
+```
+
+*Response:*
+
+```json
+{"input_tokens": 10}
+```
+
