# CodeXomics-ToolAgent-4B-v1

**CodeXomics-ToolAgent-4B-v1** (internally `qwen3.5:4b-codexomics-tools-v5`) is a 4.2B-parameter
tool-calling model fine-tuned from `Qwen/Qwen3.5-4B` for the CodeXomics genomics workbench. It
performs native function calling against the CodeXomics tool registry (file loading, navigation,
sequence analysis, annotation, track control, export, BLAST, primer design, database/protein
retrieval, task management, and UI control).

CodeXomics is an AI-native genome browser: a cross-platform desktop application in which
conversational AI agents drive genome visualization and run real biological analyses, with built-in
tool execution, a dynamic tool registry, plugin development, and Model Context Protocol (MCP)
integration. Source code and documentation:

## Fine-tuning

- Method: QLoRA (rank 16, scale 32.0, dropout 0.05, 4 layers) with MLX-LM 0.31.2 / MLX 0.32.0
- Trainable parameters: 4.058M (0.096%)
- Optimizer: AdamW, learning rate 1.0e-5, effective batch size 4, 200 iterations
- Maximum sequence length: 3,072 tokens; prompt masking enabled
- Hardware: Apple M3 Max; peak memory 191 GB (including swap)
- Checkpoint selection: iteration 75 (validation loss 0.020); test loss 0.074 (perplexity 1.077)
- Training data: CodeXomics-ToolCalling-v1 (373/123/30 train/validation/test examples)

## Evaluation

On the CodeXomics Benchmark (172 automatic tests: 143 single-operation, 29 multi-step), evaluated
in the real application loop with task-completion scoring plus execution evidence:

| Suite | Passed / Total |
| --- | --- |
| Simple | 143/143 |
| Complex | 29/29 |
| **Total** | **172/172 (100%)** |

100% was achieved in multiple independent complete sessions (simple: 2026-08-04 and 2026-08-07;
complex: 2026-08-04 and 2026-08-10). Inference settings: temperature 0, thinking enabled.

## Usage

```python
from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer

model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("CodeXomics-ToolAgent-4B-v1")
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("CodeXomics-ToolAgent-4B-v1")
```

For deployment in CodeXomics, the model is served through Ollama as `qwen3.5:4b-codexomics-tools-v5`
(Q4_K_M, 2.7 GB) with native tool calling and thinking enabled.

## Limitations

- The model is specialized for CodeXomics genomic workflows; generalization to other tool-calling
  domains was not evaluated.
