## Model Overview

**Inferact/MiniMax-M3-EAGLE3** is an EAGLE3 draft model for accelerating inference of [MiniMax-M3](https://huggingface.co/MiniMaxAI/MiniMax-M3). It is served end-to-end with **[vLLM](https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm)** and was trained using **[TorchSpec](https://github.com/lightseekorg/TorchSpec)** — a torch-native online speculative-decoding training framework that runs FSDP training and vLLM-based target inference concurrently, learning from **MiniMax-M3-regenerated responses and live vLLM-generated hidden states** to match the base model's exact token distribution.

The draft is a **1-layer** dense Llama (`LlamaForCausalLMEagle3`, ~3.3 B params) operating on MiniMax-M3's `hidden_size=6144` / `vocab_size=200064`; at serve time it shares the target's embedding and LM head (EAGLE3). See `config.json` for the full architecture.

## Performance

All numbers are measured end-to-end against `MiniMaxAI/MiniMax-M3-MXFP8` served with vLLM at `tensor-parallel-size=4`, `num_speculative_tokens=3`, and `--enforce-eager`. Greedy draft sampling (`topk=1`).

## Training

**Data:** ~456,881 training conversations (the `mix2` dataset: SWE-bench-Pro, SWE-bench, OpenCodeInstruct, kimi-mtp), with **all responses regenerated by MiniMax-M3** — preserving the target's reasoning traces and MiniMax-M3 chat formatting.

**Method:** EAGLE3 TTT, `ttt_length=7`, `max_seq_length=32 768`, AdamW at `lr=1 × 10⁻⁴` (cosine decay to 0, 2 % warmup, `max_grad_norm=1.0`), bf16 + gradient checkpointing, FlexAttention, 1 epoch (~14,277 steps). Trained on **5 × GB300 nodes** (2 nodes FSDP2 draft training, dp=8, global batch 32 + 3 nodes vLLM TP=4 target inference). EAGLE3 aux hidden states from target layers (2, 30, 57) + the final layer. Embedding / LM head / final norm are shared from the target (M3 is a VL model, so these live under the `language_model.*` prefix).

**Core training command**`torchspec.train_entry` spawns the FSDP2 trainer and vLLM inference engines as decoupled Ray actors, streaming hidden states through Mooncake:

```bash
python3 -m torchspec.train_entry \
  --config configs/vllm_minimax_m3_mix2.yaml \
  model.draft_model_config=configs/draft_models/minimax_m3_eagle3.json \
  training.training_num_nodes=2 \
  training.training_num_gpus_per_node=4 \
  inference.inference_num_gpus=12 \
  inference.inference_num_gpus_per_engine=4 \
  inference.vllm.tp_size=4
```

Draft architecture, TTT depth, sequence length, cluster layout, and optimizer are all YAML-configurable — retargeting or scaling is a config change. See the [TorchSpec repo](https://github.com/lightseekorg/TorchSpec) for full customization instructions.
