# Prebuilt LM Wheels

This repo contains metadata and installation instructions for prebuilt
wheels for parts of the LLM training and deployment stack.

## Structure

Each subfolder encodes the package and environment the wheel was built for.

Example, the first wheel pushed for vLLM:

- `apex/py312torch29cu128`
- `vllm/py312torch29cu128`
- `vllm/py312torch211cu129`
- `causal-conv1d/py312torch29cu128`
- `transformer-engine-cu12/py312torch29cu128`
- `transformer-engine-torch/py312torch29cu128`
- `py312` -> python `3.12`
- `torch29` -> torch `2.9`
- `cu128` -> cuda `12.8`

## Install

Go to the subfolder matching your environment and see the README for installation instruction. For instance, for the `vllm/py312torch29cu128` wheel:

```bash
python -m pip install \
  "https://huggingface.co/datasets/SakanaAI/lm-wheels/resolve/main/vllm/py312torch29cu128/vllm-0.1.dev1%2Bg2488d1dca.d20260408.cu128-cp312-cp312-linux_x86_64.whl"
```

For the `vllm/py312torch211cu129` wheel:

```bash
python -m pip install \
  "https://huggingface.co/datasets/SakanaAI/lm-wheels/resolve/main/vllm/py312torch211cu129/vllm-0.21.0%2Bcu129.sakana.toolpreamble.11bdaf9-cp312-cp312-linux_x86_64.whl"
```

For the `causal-conv1d/py312torch29cu128` wheel:

```bash
python -m pip install \
  "https://huggingface.co/datasets/SakanaAI/lm-wheels/resolve/main/causal-conv1d/py312torch29cu128/causal_conv1d-1.6.1-cp312-cp312-linux_x86_64.whl"
```

For the Transformer Engine `py312torch29cu128` wheels:

```bash
python -m pip install \
  "https://huggingface.co/datasets/SakanaAI/lm-wheels/resolve/main/transformer-engine-cu12/py312torch29cu128/transformer_engine_cu12-2.15.0-py3-none-manylinux_2_28_x86_64.whl" \
  "https://huggingface.co/datasets/SakanaAI/lm-wheels/resolve/main/transformer-engine-torch/py312torch29cu128/transformer_engine_torch-2.15.0-cp312-cp312-linux_x86_64.whl"
```

For the `apex/py312torch29cu128` wheel:

```bash
python -m pip install \
  "https://huggingface.co/datasets/SakanaAI/lm-wheels/resolve/main/apex/py312torch29cu128/apex-0.1-cp312-cp312-linux_x86_64.whl"
