## Bug Fixes
- 🛡️ **Safer gallery and API behavior** - path-confinement fixes, stricter credential checks, correct pre-stream errors, preserved streamed Responses items, and more reliable model installation.
- `fix(functions)` - honor `function_arguments_key` when building tool grammar (#11677).
- `fix(responses)` - wait for complete JSON tool calls and preserve streamed output items (#12001, #12048).
- `fix(api)` - return correct saturation and no-node status codes, expose alias targets, and report per-slot context (#12113, #12183, #12204).
- `fix(gallery)` - normalize OCI references, bind caches to verification policy, reduce repeated directory reads, and keep deletion inside the models directory (#12138, #12238, #12239, #12243, #12283, #12324, #12326).
- `fix(modelartifacts)` - reuse committed sibling files when `allow_patterns` narrows an artifact (#11484).
