# Python-wizard-Llama-3.1-8b

A Python code-generation assistant fine-tuned from **Meta-Llama-3.1-8B** using LoRA, trained with [Unsloth](https://github.com/unslothai/unsloth), and exported to GGUF for local inference (Ollama / llama.cpp).

Built with Llama.

## Model Details

- **Base model:** [meta-llama/Llama-3.1-8B](https://huggingface.co/meta-llama/Llama-3.1-8B)
- **Fine-tuning method:** LoRA (Low-Rank Adaptation), via Unsloth
- **Quantized base:** `unsloth/Meta-Llama-3.1-8B-bnb-4bit` (4-bit) used during training
- **Task:** Instruction-following Python code generation
- **Export format:** GGUF, quantized `Q4_K_M` (~4.92 GB)
- **Language:** English

## Training Data

Fine-tuned on [`flytech/python-codes-25k`](https://huggingface.co/datasets/flytech/python-codes-25k), a dataset of instruction/input/output triples for Python code generation tasks.

Prompt format used during training:

```
Below is an instruction that describes a task, paired with an optional introductory context. Write a response that appropriately completes the request with clean Python code.

### Instruction:
{instruction}

### Context:
{input}

### Response:
{output}
```

## Training Configuration

| Parameter | Value |
|---|---|
| LoRA rank (r) | 16 |
| LoRA alpha | 16 |
| LoRA dropout | 0 |
| Target modules | q_proj, k_proj, v_proj, o_proj, gate_proj, up_proj, down_proj |
| Bias | none |
| Max sequence length | 2048 |
| Quantization (training) | 4-bit |
| Gradient checkpointing | Unsloth (optimized) |
| Random seed | 3407 |

> Note: this checkpoint was trained for a limited number of steps (checkpoint-60). Treat outputs as a proof-of-concept rather than a fully converged model — see Limitations below.

## Usage

### With Ollama

```bash
ollama run hf.co/ShyamSaran-18/Python-wizard-Llama-3.1-8b
```

### With llama.cpp

```bash
llama-cli -hf ShyamSaran-18/Python-wizard-Llama-3.1-8b --jinja
```

### With transformers + PEFT (LoRA adapter, if published separately)

```python
from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer
from peft import PeftModel

base = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("meta-llama/Llama-3.1-8B")
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("meta-llama/Llama-3.1-8B")
model = PeftModel.from_pretrained(base, "ShyamSaran-18/Python-wizard-Llama-3.1-8b")
```

## Intended Use

Generating Python code snippets and completions from natural-language instructions. Intended for experimentation, learning, and portfolio demonstration of LoRA fine-tuning and local LLM deployment workflows.

## Limitations

- Trained on a single open dataset with a limited number of training steps; not benchmarked against held-out evaluation data.
- Inherits the general limitations and biases of the base Llama 3.1 model.
- Generated code should be reviewed before use — no guarantees of correctness, security, or production-readiness.
- Not evaluated for languages other than Python or for tasks outside code generation.
