"# NoTokenLM-MicroGen — Use Notebook\n",
"\n",
"This is the notebook to use if you just want to **run one of the MicroGen models**. Every model in the series ships as a real `transformers`-compatible checkpoint, so loading one is a single `from_pretrained(..., trust_remote_code=True)` call — no manual architecture code, no private repos.\n",
"\n",
"Because this single repository hosts six different checkpoints side by side (one per subfolder), Hugging Face's default \"Use this model\" widget doesn't represent it correctly — this notebook is the intended entry point instead.\n",
"\n",
"**Works on Google Colab and Kaggle** — the setup cell below detects which platform you're on and installs accordingly.\n",
"\n",
"## What this notebook does\n",
"1. Lets you pick a model from a dropdown\n",
"2. Loads it directly from the Hub with `AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(..., trust_remote_code=True)`\n",
"3. Runs text generation on your own prompt\n",
"\n",
"No token is required (the repo is public) — a GPU (T4 is enough) will make generation faster, but these models are small enough to run fine on CPU too.\n",
"\n",
"> These models have no tokenizer — input and output are raw UTF-8 bytes. `model.generate_bytes(prompt, ...)` handles that for you."

The cell below pins compatible versions of both together to avoid that. If you already hit the error before running this cell, use **Runtime → Restart runtime** (Colab) or **Run → Restart session** (Kaggle) after this cell finishes, then re-run from the top."
