YOLO-Coder-8B

Fix broken CLI commands. One command output. Runs 100% locally. Fine-tuned Qwen2.5-Coder-7B · MLX LoRA on Apple Silicon · No API key needed

🎯 Task	CLI error → single bare bash fix command
🏆 Accuracy	77.1% pipeline×3 · 59.2% raw LLM (beats GPT-4o)
💾 Size	~4.4GB Q4_K_M GGUF · ~6GB RAM
⚡ Speed	1–3s on Apple Silicon
🔒 Privacy	100% local · no API key · no telemetry

Quickstart

ollama run hf.co/erdemozkan/YOLO-Coder-8B "ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'flask'"
# → pip install flask

That's it. No account. No cloud. No cost per call.

YOLO-Coder-8B pipeline×3 is the highest score of any model tested — including GPT-4o and Claude Sonnet — running entirely offline.

Scoring code and dataset: github.com/erdemozkan/YOLO-CODER/tree/main/benchmark

How the pipeline works

Your error → [91 interceptors <1ms] → [fix memory <5ms] → [LLM 1-3s] → Fix
                ↑ ~50% of fixes stop here

Half of all fixes never reach the LLM. The model is the safety net, not the first guess.

Usage with YOLO-CODER

pip install yolo-coder

yoco python3 myapp.py        # 8B is the default
yoco npm run dev
yoco --model hf.co/erdemozkan/YOLO-Coder-8B python3 myapp.py

Prompt format (ChatML)

<|im_start|>system
You are a CLI repair tool. Output ONLY a single bare bash command to fix the error. No explanation. No markdown. No backticks.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
[Linux] $ python3 myapp.py
Error:
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'requests'
FIX:<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
pip install requests<|im_end|>

Limitations

• Single-command output only — not designed for multi-step fixes without a wrapper
• Complex or highly novel errors may produce suboptimal output
• Not a general-purpose coding assistant
