CivitAI labels new DiT architectures (MiniMax H3, future Flux/Wan/Qwen
variants) as model.type "Checkpoint" with plain "Model" file entries,
so the DIFFUSION_MODEL_BASE_MODELS allowlist could never keep up and
such downloads were mis-routed to the checkpoint roots (e.g. model
2877206 / version 3374439). The set of true full-checkpoint families is
closed, so the baseModel fallback is inverted:
1. file type UNet/Diffusion Model -> unet (unchanged)
2. baseModel in DIFFUSION_MODEL_BASE_MODELS (now incl. MiniMax H3) -> unet
3. baseModel in new CHECKPOINT_BASE_MODELS (SD 1.x/2.x/3.x, SDXL, Pony,
Illustrious, NoobAI) -> checkpoint
4. unknown/empty baseModel -> new unknown_base_model_routing setting,
defaulting to diffusion models
The setting is exposed under Settings > Downloads, validated in
SettingsManager, and threaded into both the download manager and the
download routing endpoint so they keep agreeing.
Other Models management is now opt-in: enable_other_models (default false)
plus the enabled_other_sub_types allow-list replace the unreleased additive
enabled_other_folders key.
- config._get_enabled_other_folder_keys() is the single scan gate; a new
refresh_other_roots() rebuilds roots and preview roots on toggle.
- ModelScanner gains a _should_keep_cached_entry() hydration hook and
on_library_changed(reconcile=...) so switching a sub_type off drops its
entries (and hash/autov3 rows) at load time and switching it on rescans.
- OtherScanner filters location-derived entries accordingly.
- Other routes reject every other type while off (or a disabled sub_type) and
expose an "other_disabled" page flag; download routing returns a disabled
marker instead of guessing; the download manager refuses other-type
downloads and default-path routing for switched-off sub_types.
- Doctor / init-status / refresh-all skip the other scanner while off; the
scanner stays registered so staged pending-deletes still merge.
- Tests updated with explicit opt-in fixtures plus new gating coverage.
The download modal's location step decided between checkpoint and unet
roots using only the CivitAI file-type signal, while the backend also
falls back to DIFFUSION_MODEL_BASE_MODELS. Models like Anima (file type
"Model") were offered checkpoint roots in the UI even though
use_default_paths would route them to the unet root.
- Extract the two-tier decision into py/services/download_routing.py and
reuse it in DownloadManager._execute_download
- Add POST /api/lm/download/routing so the UI asks the backend for the
routing decision; fall back to the local file-type check on failure
- ModelVersionsTab: search both checkpoint and unet roots when resolving
an existing version's download path
