### What this PR does / why we need it?
1. For all parts of the current test module involving the millisecond
download model, add the `local_file_only` parameter to specify offline
mode; this ensures that CI will not fail due to network instability.
2. Install modelscope from a fixed commit until it next release
### Does this PR introduce _any_ user-facing change?
### How was this patch tested?
check if the env or arg `local_files_only` works
1) set the env:
```shell
export HF_HUB_OFFLINE=1
```
2) run the script
```python
from transformers import PretrainedConfig
import huggingface_hub
from modelscope.utils.hf_util import patch_hub
patch_hub()
model="Qwen/Qwen3-0.6B"
kwargs = {}
config_dict, _ = PretrainedConfig.get_config_dict(
model,
trust_remote_code=True,
local_files_only=huggingface_hub.constants.HF_HUB_OFFLINE,
**kwargs,
)
print(config_dict)
```
it works well:
```shell
2026-03-06 06:40:12,546 - modelscope - WARNING - We can not confirm the cached file is for revision: master
The argument `trust_remote_code` is to be used with Auto classes. It has no effect here and is ignored.

```
3) test the model repo does not cached locally when the env
`HF_HUB_OFFLINE`==True
```python
from transformers import PretrainedConfig
import huggingface_hub
from modelscope.utils.hf_util import patch_hub
patch_hub()
model="FireRedTeam/FireRed-OCR"
kwargs = {}
config_dict, _ = PretrainedConfig.get_config_dict(
model,
trust_remote_code=True,
local_files_only=huggingface_hub.constants.HF_HUB_OFFLINE,
**kwargs,
)
print(config_dict)
```
and the result is as expected:
```shell
File "/workspace/demo.py", line 12, in <module>
config_dict, _ = PretrainedConfig.get_config_dict(

Overview
vLLM Ascend (vllm-ascend) is a community maintained hardware plugin for running vLLM seamlessly on the Ascend NPU.
It is the recommended approach for supporting the Ascend backend within the vLLM community. It adheres to the principles outlined in the [RFC]: Hardware pluggable, providing a hardware-pluggable interface that decouples the integration of the Ascend NPU with vLLM.
By using vLLM Ascend plugin, popular open-source models, including Transformer-like, Mixture-of-Experts (MoE), Embedding, Multi-modal LLMs can run seamlessly on the Ascend NPU.
