The runner package used to pick an engine from the first argument of the
runner subcommand. Only the MLX engine is left, so the dispatcher has a
single arm, its README still describes the removed Go runner's flags and
endpoints, and the standalone cmd/runner binary exists only to invoke it.

We call mlxrunner.Execute directly from the hidden runner subcommand and
drop the --mlx-engine argument from the command line the MLX client
spawns. Both sides ship in the same binary, so nothing has to accept both
forms. The runner package and cmd/runner are removed.

The subcommand's help hook hands the runner a bare --help. cobra calls the
hook with no arguments for `ollama help runner`, which used to index past
the end of the slice.
Several pieces outlived the code that used them. The root tokenizer
package implemented the GGUF-side vocabularies for the Go engine and the
safetensors-to-GGUF converter; nothing has imported it since the
converter went. ml/backend.go held the Go engine's Backend, Context and
Tensor interfaces, with fs.Config existing only to be returned from them,
and a single CUDA template instance under ml/backend/ggml survived the
engine removal along with the gitattributes entries for that tree and the
CI change-filter globs for it and for the long-gone llama/llama.cpp. From
the image generation engine, an integration test group that no test
registers, its build tag, and the StepBar progress widget remained.
DeviceInfo.IsBetter has no caller at all.

All of it goes. Tidying the module file drops the regexp2 dependency and
leaves protobuf as an indirect requirement. The llama3.2 tokenizer
fixtures stay: the MLX runner's tokenizer uses them for its GGML parity
test.
The MLX runner is the only Go inference runner left and is no longer
experimental, so its packages leave x/. The bindings become a top-level
mlx package beside the carried patches in mlx/compat, mirroring how
llama/ holds the llama.cpp integration, and the runner becomes mlxrunner
with the architectures nested under the package they implement.
Subpackages move with their parent unless listed.

  x/models/nn                mlxrunner/nn

  x/mlxrunner/imports.go     mlxrunner/model/architectures   (new package)
  x/create                   create
  x/safetensors              fs/safetensors
  x/tokenizer                mlxrunner/tokenizer

Every package keeps its name, so the Go changes are the import path
rewrites the moves force, and the CMake, Dockerfile, CI cache keys, drift
check and Darwin payload script follow the new paths. Four edits are not
paths: the runner's blank architecture imports become the package
mlxrunner/model/architectures, so the list to extend for a new model sits
beside the architecture directories; a depguard rule keeps the two test
harnesses out of non-test code, as the x/internal placement used to; the
CI change filter's two entries for the long-deleted x/imagegen/mlx now
name the bindings' CMake project and the carried patches, so a change to
either builds the payload; and the tokenizer parity test reads its
fixtures from its own testdata instead of walking out of x/.

x/server and x/imagegen/manifest stay for the next two commits.
model/base held the Model interface and the architecture registry while
model held weight loading and quant parameters, and every architecture
imported both. create/client was the CLI side of safetensors imports,
with the create command as its only caller, a duplicate of the command's
adapter error, and a name that read like a second API client. The
safetensors show helpers had their own package under x/ although it
already declared package server.

base merges into model, so base.Model and base.Register become
model.Model and model.Register; nothing in the two overlapped. The create
client's two files and their tests join package cmd, and the five names
the command called are no longer exported. The show helpers join the
server package, and the three entry points routes.go calls become
unexported like the helpers around them.
The runner and its weight loader read a model's manifest through
x/imagegen/manifest, the last piece of the removed image generation
engine. It was a hand-rolled copy of the manifest package: its own model
name parser with the default registry and namespace spelled out, its own
blob path builder, and re-spelled media types, plus a model_index.json
reader and other helpers that nothing has called since the engine went.

The manifest package gains the three lookups the runner needs, a config
layer by path, its contents, and the tensor layers, and ReadConfigJSON is
built on the second of them. The weight loader resolves the model name
with the shared parser, which fills in the same defaults the copy did, and
locates blobs with BlobsPath. The architectures' calls to read their
config.json compile unchanged. x/imagegen is gone.
nn.go held every layer type in the package apart from attention,
recurrence and rope: the Linear and Embedding interfaces with their dense
and quantized types, Conv1d, RMSNorm, LayerNorm and MultiLinear, with one
test file to match. Finding a layer meant scanning the file named after
the package.

Each layer kind gets its own file: linear.go and embedding.go hold the
interface and the dense and quantized types, conv.go, norm.go and
multilinear.go take the rest, and nn_test.go splits the same way. The
Layer and MultiLinearLayer interfaces go; nothing implemented or accepted
them. No code changes otherwise.
model is one package with three jobs: the contract between the runner
and the architectures, the opened checkpoint, and building nn layers
from checkpoint tensors. Its files did not say which was which. base.go
carried the folded package's name over the interfaces and the registry,
root.go held the safetensors header scan next to Root, and quant.go
mixed the nvfp4 global-scale helpers with quant parameter resolution.

base.go becomes model.go, named for what it holds. root.go keeps Root
and Open; TensorQuantInfo and the header scan join quant.go, so
everything the checkpoint says about quantization is read and resolved
in one file. The global-scale helpers move to globalscale.go with their
tests. Root.Close, a no-op with one caller, goes. No code changes
otherwise.
