Missing generation_config.json breaks GenerationConfig.from_pretrained()
#7

Summary
generation_config.json is not included in this repository, which causesGenerationConfig.from_pretrained() to fail with a file-not-found error.
While model.generate() still works via fallback from the model config (model.config),
this breaks explicit generation config loading workflows and some serving frameworks.
Reproduction
from transformers import GenerationConfig
config = GenerationConfig.from_pretrained(
"naver-hyperclovax/HyperCLOVAX-SEED-Text-Instruct-0.5B"
)
# Error: does not appear to have a file named generation_config.json
Environment
- transformers: latest (installed from main branch)
- torch: 2.10.0
- Platform: macOS, Apple M4 Pro (MPS)
Impact
GenerationConfig.from_pretrained()raises an error- Workflows relying on explicit
GenerationConfig.from_pretrained()load/save cycle break - Some serving stacks (e.g., DeepSpeed-MII) may assume
generation_config.jsonexists - Inconsistent with other models of similar scale (Qwen2.5-0.5B, Llama-3.2-1B, EXAONE-3.5-2.4B all include it)
Token IDs from tokenizer (for reference)
bos_token_id: 100257 (<|endoftext|>)
eos_token_id: 100275 (<|endofturn|>)
pad_token_id: 100257 (<|endoftext|>)
Suggestion
Would it be possible to add a minimal generation_config.json?
A minimal version would be:
{
"_from_model_config": true,
"bos_token_id": 100257,
"eos_token_id": 100275,
"pad_token_id": 100257
}
I noticed that the Vision-Instruct-3B repo had generation_config.json removed in a recent commit,
so this may be intentional. If so, could you share the reasoning?
Happy to submit a PR if this would be welcome.
Notes
model.generate()works fine via model config fallback β this is not a model inference bug- This applies to the Text-Instruct series; I was unable to verify 1.5B due to gated access
