Fix -m None passed to llama-server when cached model not found
2026-06-03 18:12:26 +02:00
Claude dd2d52b5e3 Fix -m None passed to llama-server when cached model not found
When LLAMA_CACHED_MODEL is set but the model isn't present in the cache,
find_cached.py was printing Python's None as the string "None", causing
start.sh to pass "-m None" to llama-server.

- find_cached.py: print an error to stderr and exit 1 when the model path
  cannot be resolved, instead of printing "None"
- start.sh: capture find_cached.py output into a local variable, check
  the exit code and guard against empty output before constructing
  CACHED_LLAMA_ARGS; also quote the env-var expansions to handle spaces

A naive way to cache the model would be to store it on a network volume in RunPod and reference the model files this way:
```bash
-hf /runpod-volume/model.gguf --ctx-size 4096 # etc...
-m /runpod-volume/model.gguf --ctx-size 4096 # etc...
```
Unfortunately, network volume performance is often not sufficient for loading large models, leading to long load times. RunPod introduced a [caching mechanism](https://docs.runpod.io/serverless/endpoints/model-caching) to solve this problem.
