Here[1] is the offending pull request. The llama.cpp devs are trying to refactor the code, so the "engine" bits are shared between the current server and client applications.
Georgi himself noted it should be possible to replace the transport layer from HTTP to say an internal message queue, and the main developer of the PR said the HTTP bit is already abstracted and intended to include a non-HTTP transport example, so seems clear to me it's not intended to be HTTP-only.

How is adding compulsory HTTP to CLI necessary for refactoring the code?
You realize that now the CLI needs http permissions to load a model locally. Still confused why, the server already does that by all means.
First they changed the remote downloading weights in server. Then they approved and merged claude code snippets. Now mandatory monitoring.
Everyone has a price
We are heading towards a closed and monitored system, better said a proprietary one soon. Get the last genuine llama.cpp build before to late b9925.
The CLI now asking for access to load the model?
Here the change that screw everything:

remove outdated comment
use destructor instead
add ftype
cli-view --> cli-ui
pimpl
no more json in header
nits fixes
also show model aliases
Adios llama.cpp.
only a matter of time, thx for heads up
