What this build does
veizik run --ignore-eos: generate exactly the requested number of tokens, so a fixed-length run produces exactly that length.--tokens Nnow prints exactly N tokens and says so on the summary line.- Faster long-context decoding on more Macs: Qwen3-1.7B takes the long-context path from 8K tokens on M2 Pro, M1 Max and M1 Ultra, and Qwen2.5-1.5B gains a faster path on M2 Pro.
veizik serveadds a TLS gateway, per-tenant quotas, a multi-node router, API keys with scopes and single sign-on, a usage ledger, request ids, tool calls and a service command.veizik servenow keeps each model loaded in a resident engine: one load per server, not per request, with model and feature licences checked when it loads and on every request.- Licences can now cover individual models and features.

- Platform
- macOS on Apple Silicon (arm64)
- Install size
- 16.1 MB, 125 files — no dependency to install first
- Verification
- The file name, size and SHA-256 are printed on this page and on the release page, and the two agree. The disk image is signed with a Developer ID and notarised, and carries SHA256SUMS covering its other 49 files, so `shasum -a 256 -c SHA256SUMS` checks the contents after you open it.

Fixed issues
veizik serveno longer grows in memory when a client polls /ready or /metrics.veizik serveno longer holds on to memory when it refuses a streaming request that also asks for tools.- Sign-in tokens signed with ES256 are verified about 15 times faster, and a recently verified token is not re-verified on every request.
Known issues in 2026.10.02-r5
--tokens 1is refused: the first token comes from reading the prompt, so the smallest output is two tokens.- Compared with 2026.10.02-r3,
veizik runwall time is one decode step shorter for the same --tokens value, because --tokens now counts the first token. - If the engine cannot start on your Mac it says so and exits rather than running anyway. This only happens on configurations that restrict what an application may do with memory, which a stock macOS does not; if you see it, support@veizik.com.
- Headless enrolment is not enabled: every device is activated through a browser.
veizik servehandles prompts up to 4096 tokens by default; longer requests are refused.- On long prompts
veizik servecan be slower thanveizik run: the resident engine does not yet use the faster long-context path.
