Instructions to use ByteDance-Seed/Seed-Coder-8B-Reasoning with libraries, inference providers, notebooks, and local apps. Follow these links to get started.

Libraries

How to use ByteDance-Seed/Seed-Coder-8B-Reasoning with Transformers:

# Use a pipeline as a high-level helper
from transformers import pipeline

pipe = pipeline("text-generation", model="ByteDance-Seed/Seed-Coder-8B-Reasoning")
messages = [
    {"role": "user", "content": "Who are you?"},
]
pipe(messages)

# Load model directly
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForCausalLM

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("ByteDance-Seed/Seed-Coder-8B-Reasoning")
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("ByteDance-Seed/Seed-Coder-8B-Reasoning")
messages = [
    {"role": "user", "content": "Who are you?"},
]
inputs = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(
	messages,
	add_generation_prompt=True,
	tokenize=True,
	return_dict=True,
	return_tensors="pt",
).to(model.device)

outputs = model.generate(**inputs, max_new_tokens=40)
print(tokenizer.decode(outputs[0][inputs["input_ids"].shape[-1]:]))

Larger context version?

Howdy, just wondering if you're planning on releasing a larger context version of this model? I don't think 32k is usable for much other than some basic completion tasks these days.

Hello. After some experiments, we found that extending the context length to 64k achieves comparable or even better performance, while 128k may lead to some degradation. Therefore, we have set the context length to 64k. Further extension through training is also planned. Thanks
