* ci : inline UI version resolution into ui-build.yml
* ci : build UI once and reuse the artifact in release jobs
Server jobs now extract the ui-build artifact into tools/ui/dist instead of npm-building the UI. Also removes the get-version job and the no-op -DHF_UI_VERSION flags.
Assisted-by: pi:Kimi-K3
* ui : disable the npm UI build by default (LLAMA_BUILD_UI=OFF)
The flag now only controls building the UI from source via npm. The UI
is still embedded by default from local tools/ui/dist or the prebuilt
download (LLAMA_USE_PREBUILT_UI=ON). CI jobs no longer npm-build the
UI; server-sanitize does not need node anymore.

* ci : rename the ui-build artifact to llama-ui.zip
Consistent with the other artifact names in the Actions summary.

* ci : clarify the windows artifact merge in release.yml
The windows-cuda/vulkan/sycl jobs build only the backend library;
llama-server (with the embedded UI) is injected into their zips from
the windows-cpu package during the release. State this in the job
comments and use accurate wording in the merge step.

* xcframework : fix build
* mtmd : remove unused include path
* vendor : use vendor::hash alias target in cmake
CMake reserves "::" in target names for imported/alias targets, so the real
target keeps the name vendor-hash and a vendor::hash ALIAS target is added.
Consumers (mtmd, llama-gguf-hash) now link against the namespaced alias.
Assisted-by: pi:llama.cpp/Qwen3.8-27B
* vendor : add cmake targets for all vendored libs with vendor:: aliases
Add INTERFACE targets for the header-only vendor libs (miniaudio, nlohmann,
sheredom, stb) and ALIAS targets named vendor::<lib> for all of them,
including cpp-httplib and hash. Each exposes the vendor/ root so includes
are namespaced, e.g. <nlohmann/json.hpp>.
Consolidate the per-lib add_subdirectory calls into a single
add_subdirectory(vendor), keeping the cpp-httplib gate on LLAMA_BUILD_COMMON.
Consumers (llama-common, mtmd) now link the aliases instead of relying on
raw vendor/ include paths.
hash: consumers now include via "hash/hash.h"; the vendor/hash dir is kept
as a PRIVATE include so the synced upstream sources compile unmodified.

* ocd : fix valign
* ci : create pre-release with change log and nightly link in make-release
After pushing the tag, create a pre-release using
ggml-org/action-create-release. The release description is generated by
scripts/make-release-desc.sh: the change log between the current and
previous version (one line per commit), a link to the corresponding
nightly build when it exists, and a note that semantic versioning is
still work in progress.

* cmake : bump version to 0.1.2
Assisted-by: pi:llama.cpp/Qwen3.8-27B
* ci : find the nightly tag by commit in make-release-desc.sh
The nightly release is guaranteed by the release checks to point at HEAD,
so instead of reconstructing its name (commit count, branch, hash) just
pick the b* tag pointing at HEAD. This also drops the RELEASE_BRANCH env
var from the workflow.
Assisted-by: pi:llama.cpp/Qwen3.8-27B
* ci : resolve the release commit from the version tag in make-release-desc.sh
The change log and nightly lookup now use the commit the version tag
points at (HEAD when the tag does not exist), instead of always HEAD.
This makes the script usable locally for older versions, e.g.
./scripts/make-release-desc.sh v0.1.1. The tag is resolved to a SHA
first, since --points-at does not peel annotated tags.
Assisted-by: pi:llama.cpp/Qwen3.8-27B
* ci : normalize the version argument in make-release-desc.sh
Accept the version with or without the leading v (0.1.1 == v0.1.1) and
reject anything else, instead of silently treating a bare version as a
non-existent tag name.

* examples : remove CI build information from test-cmake [no ci]
This commit removes the nightly/release information that I added
previously to keep this focused only on using building and installing
llama.cpp with cmake and being able to quickly verify changes or
troubleshoot issues.
* ci : merge scripts into single script
* remove -dev-build_number support
This commit removes the incremental build number (versioning) support
that I added. This was incorrect and we should only use the semver for
the version. Releases will be tag a nightly build and package
maintainers/managers that build from source can use the tag and it is
therefor important that the correct version is reported. So a
nightly-build will report the semver without the build number. The build
number and commit as availble via cmake and test-cmake has been updated
to include an example of using them:
```console
$ ./build.sh
[test-cmake] version: 0.1.0, build: 10360 (08c69e381)
...
```

Adds an opt-in LLAMA_BUILD_MTMD CMake option so build-xcframework.sh
can link libmtmd.a into the framework binary without pulling in the
rest of tools/ (which doesn't cross-build cleanly to iOS/tvOS/visionOS).
- CMakeLists.txt: new option, default OFF. When on with
LLAMA_BUILD_TOOLS=OFF, only the tools/mtmd subdir is added. Useful
for any binding that wants just libmtmd (Apple XCFramework, WASM).
- tools/mtmd/CMakeLists.txt: gate the CLI exe targets on
LLAMA_BUILD_TOOLS. Gating on LLAMA_BUILD_COMMON is not enough — it
defaults ON in standalone builds and visionOS xcodebuild then fails
with "install TARGETS given no BUNDLE DESTINATION for MACOSX_BUNDLE
executable target 'llama-mtmd-cli'".
- build-xcframework.sh: turn the option on, pass -DLLAMA_BUILD_MTMD,
add libmtmd.a to combine_static_libraries, and copy mtmd.h and
mtmd-helper.h into the framework Headers dir. The umbrella module
map then exposes them, so Swift / Obj-C consumers can import the
mtmd C API directly.
After this, nm on ios-arm64/llama.framework/llama shows 52 _mtmd_
symbols. Verified end-to-end: a Swift target links the produced
framework and calls mtmd_default_marker, mtmd_bitmap_init, etc.
without a shim on macos / iphoneos / iphonesimulator / xros slices.

* cmake : remove STATIC from impl libraries, allow BUILD_SHARED_LIBS control
Remove explicit STATIC from all -impl libraries (server, cli, completion, bench,
batched-bench, fit-params, quantize, perplexity) so BUILD_SHARED_LIBS controls
shared vs static linkage.
Add WINDOWS_EXPORT_ALL_SYMBOLS ON for proper DLL export on Windows.
