How to use ZQ-Dev/KAT-Coder-V2.5-Dev-oQ2e-fp16 with MLX:

# Make sure mlx-lm is installed
# pip install --upgrade mlx-lm

# Generate text with mlx-lm
from mlx_lm import load, generate

model, tokenizer = load("ZQ-Dev/KAT-Coder-V2.5-Dev-oQ2e-fp16")

prompt = "Write a story about Einstein"
messages = [{"role": "user", "content": prompt}]
prompt = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(
    messages, add_generation_prompt=True
)

text = generate(model, tokenizer, prompt=prompt, verbose=True)

How to use ZQ-Dev/KAT-Coder-V2.5-Dev-oQ2e-fp16 with Pi:

Start the MLX server

# Install MLX LM:
uv tool install mlx-lm
# Start a local OpenAI-compatible server:
mlx_lm.server --model "ZQ-Dev/KAT-Coder-V2.5-Dev-oQ2e-fp16"

Configure the model in Pi

# Install Pi:
npm install -g @mariozechner/pi-coding-agent
# Add to ~/.pi/agent/models.json:
{
  "providers": {
    "mlx-lm": {
      "baseUrl": "http://localhost:8080/v1",
      "api": "openai-completions",
      "apiKey": "none",

# KAT-Coder-V2.5-Dev-oQ2e

A 2-bit enhanced oQ quantization of
[Kwaipilot/KAT-Coder-V2.5-Dev](https://huggingface.co/Kwaipilot/KAT-Coder-V2.5-Dev)
for Apple Silicon and MLX-compatible runtimes.

## Quantization details

The full calibration summary is available in
[`oq_imatrix_report.json`](./oq_imatrix_report.json).

**Note:** This quant was created using **float16** non-quant weights. Per oMLX, float16 gives ~20% faster prefill on M1/M2 Apple Silicon (native fp16). bfloat16 is safer on M3+ and for numerical stability. For the standard oQe with bfloat16, see [this repo](https://huggingface.co/ZQ-Dev/KAT-Coder-V2.5-Dev-oQ2e).
