* fix(offline): patch transformers mistral-regex check to survive HF failures transformers 4.57.x's `PreTrainedTokenizerBase._patch_mistral_regex` calls `huggingface_hub.model_info(repo_id)` unconditionally during any non-local tokenizer load to probe for Mistral-family models. The call raises on `HF_HUB_OFFLINE=1`, on network outages, and on slow/blocked HF endpoints, and transformers doesn't catch any of it — the exception bubbles out of `from_pretrained` and kills the load for unrelated engines (Qwen TTS, Qwen CustomVoice, TADA, etc.). 0.4.2's load-time `force_offline_if_cached` guard walked straight into this trap: on cached online users it flipped `HF_HUB_OFFLINE=1` and converted a healthy load into a hard crash. 0.4.3's inference-path guard masked it; #524 removed the inference guard in 0.4.4, and users updating to 0.4.4 started hitting the same error on the load path instead (#526). Fix: - Wrap `_patch_mistral_regex` so any exception from the inner HF metadata check is swallowed and the tokenizer is returned unchanged. Voicebox never loads Mistral models, so the regex rewrite this check gates is a no-op for us; matches the success-path behavior for non-Mistral repos (tokenization_utils_base.py:2503). - Drop the `force_offline_if_cached` wraps from every load path (pytorch_backend Qwen + Whisper, qwen_custom_voice_backend, mlx_backend Qwen + Whisper). With the mistral patch in place they provide zero value and only risk re-introducing the same class of bug. Helper and its unit tests stay — still correct for targeted future use. - Add `backend/tests/test_offline_patch.py` covering OfflineModeIsEnabled / ConnectionError suppression, success pass-through, idempotence, and the missing-method no-op path. Fixes #526. * fix(offline): install mistral-regex patch for non-MLX backends The previous commit left the patch wired only through ``mlx_backend.py``'s existing import of ``hf_offline_patch``. On Windows/Linux/CUDA users who never load the MLX backend (everyone who hit #526), the patch module was never imported, so ``patch_transformers_mistral_regex`` never ran and the crash persisted. Hoist the import into ``backends/__init__.py``. Every backend imports from this package, so the module-level patch install runs before any ``from_pretrained`` call regardless of which engine the user picks. Caught by CodeRabbit and Cursor Bugbot on #530.
