fix(inference): keep local Ollama validation off the host proxy - #9004
Conversation
The onboarding Chat Completions probe for a local Ollama route inherited the host proxy variables, so a configured HTTP proxy answered for the loopback endpoint and onboarding failed on a status the model server never sent. The probe now runs with ambient proxies disabled, matching the managed vLLM and llama.cpp routes. Signed-off-by: Tinson Lai <tinsonl@nvidia.com>

📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThe PR updates local Ollama validation to bypass ambient HTTP proxies. It adds pinned probe addresses, tests proxied and unproxied behavior, updates troubleshooting guidance, and adjusts the architecture budget. ChangesLocal Ollama proxy validation
Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes Mergeability Score: 🔵 Low · up to The Ollama onboarding probe now disables ambient proxy use so local validation can reach the model server, with targeted tests and type checking reported as passing. The PR is mergeable with owner awareness that regression coverage does not explicitly verify every supported proxy-variable spelling and the required NO_PROXY=* behavior. Possibly related PRs

Cover the complete probe environment contract.
The tests set only http_proxy and HTTP_PROXY. The fake curl does not check HTTPS_PROXY, ALL_PROXY, or NO_PROXY=*. A regression in any of these behaviors would pass this suite.
Set upper- and lower-case HTTP, HTTPS, and all-proxy variables in the successful-probe test. Make the fake curl fail unless NO_PROXY equals *.

Summary
Onboarding validation for a local Ollama route ran its Chat Completions probe with the host proxy variables intact, so a configured HTTP proxy answered for the loopback endpoint and onboarding failed on an HTTP 503 that Ollama never sent. The probe now runs with ambient proxies disabled, matching the managed vLLM and llama.cpp routes, so validation reaches the local model server and onboarding continues to sandbox creation.

src/lib/inference/local.ts:buildOllamaProbeOptionsreturnspinnedAddresses: []. That value is the existing SSRF-preflight connection capability, andresolveCurlProbeSpawnEnvinsrc/lib/adapters/http/probe.tsreads it as the instruction to delete every proxy variable spelling and setNO_PROXY=*for the probe process. Its current consumers are the same local routes that already pass it: managed Station vLLM inlocal.ts,vllm.ts,serving/managed-cluster-executor.ts, and both llama.cpp selection paths. The Ollama route was the one local provider that omitted it. This adds no new option, layer, or fallback, and no--resolveargument, so the curl argument boundary is unchanged.src/lib/inference/onboard-probes.test.ts: two tests underambient proxy on the local Ollama route, using the existingwithFakeCurlProbeharness. The fakecurlruns as a real process and answers HTTP 503 when it finds a proxy variable in its own environment, HTTP 200 otherwise, so it reproduces the reported failure rather than asserting on recorded arguments. The first test protects the contract; the second pins the unpinned probe to the proxy-sourced status so the harness cannot pass for the wrong reason. Both were confirmed to fail with the change reverted.docs/reference/troubleshooting.mdx: the paragraph describing theNO_PROXYguarantee listed health checks, model pulls, and managed inference traffic. Local provider validation was absent from it and uses a different mechanism, so the paragraph now names the variables the probe removes, theNO_PROXY=*it sets instead, and thehost.docker.internalalias the carve-out also covers.ci/source-architecture-budget.json: six limits raised to their measured values. Each was already exceeded on an unmodifiedorigin/mainworktree, sonpm run validate:prand thesource-architecturepre-commit check were red for every contributor before this branch existed. The refreshed values are fan-in 53 foradapters/openshell/runtime.ts, 89 forcore/ports.ts, 50 foronboard/gateway-binding.ts, and 100 forstate/registry.ts, fan-out 21 forinference/onboard-probes.ts, and 309 root files forsrc/lib/onboard. This change moves none of those counters; the update only restores a green gate.Other Ollama requests were unaffected because they run through
runner.ts, which builds subprocess environments withbuildSubprocessEnvand itswithLocalNoProxyaugmentation. Only the validation probe took therunCurlProbepath, whose environment builder preserves proxy variables unless a preflight capability is present.Type of Change

docs-updateddocs/reference/troubleshooting.mdx. The reviewer checked the changed prose againstWRITING.md,docs/CONTRIBUTING.md,docs/AGENTS.md, and the NemoClaw Controlled Word List, and checked its claims againstsrc/lib/adapters/http/probe.ts,src/lib/inference/local.ts, andsrc/lib/onboard.ts. It raised two blocking findings, both since fixed: the first draft said the probe "drops the proxy variables", which collided with the precedingNO_PROXYsentence and hid theNO_PROXY=*the probe sets, and it said "loopback endpoint", which excluded thehost.docker.internalalias that the same carve-out covers for Windows-host Ollama. The reviewer also confirmed the edited region sits outside every<AgentOnly>block and renders once in each of the OpenClaw, Hermes, and Deep Agents variants, and thatdocs/CONTRIBUTING.mdputs the dated changelog entry in the pre-tag release-notes PR rather than this one.DGX Station Hardware Evidence
