## What's Changed
- Qwen3.5 is faster on Apple GPUs: the MLX engine now uses the model's MTP head for speculative decoding automatically
- `/v1/chat/completions` streaming now matches OpenAI's wire format: `role` only on the first chunk, `finish_reason` on its own chunk,
and usage in a separate chunk with `stream_options.include_usage`.
- Truncated OpenAI responses now report `finish_reason: "length"` instead of `"tool_calls"`.
- `ollama run kimi-k3` now offers `kimi-k3:cloud` for cloud-only models that publish no default tag, instead of failing.
- TUI fixes: pipe-delimited prose no longer renders as a table, Enter accepts the highlighted `@` file completion, and `/prompt`
scrolling is no longer laggy.
- Experimental image generation has been temporarily removed. Continue using 0.32.5 for image generation support
- Updated the MLX and llama.cpp engines.
