	<h2><emo class="large">💢</emo> Why should you thrust me?</h2>
	<p>You should not. If you think I'm the Messiah, please go away! I'm a <s>hobbit</s> <s>hobo</s> hobbyist who benchmarked 300+ LLM models in the past two years. I found that each base model requires different settings to work at their best. Collecting <span style="text-decoration: line-through;">pokemons</span> good settings is time consuming. With this list, I'm able to run most model and finetunes without any trouble.</p>

		<p>If you're using a finetune, your only task is to identify the baseline model used as a starting point. You can do that by searching the name of your finetune on HuggingFace. The read.me page (or the meta data on the right) usually gave you the original model.</p>

In the model's output content, we use the &lt;think&gt;...&lt;/think&gt; format to wrap the assistant's thinking content. When using the model, you must ensure that the historical content is passed back in its original format.

	<h2><emo>🍺</emo> Note about Instruct &amp; Context Templates</h3>
	<p>If nothing works, connect Silly Tavern to your back-end using <b>Chat Completion</b> instead of <b>Text Completion</b>. Chat Completion enforces the usage of a "jinja" formatted Chat Template, typically embedded in most model by the authors.</p>

	<h2><emo>🤔</emo> Wait, why are you not using nSigna or repetition penalty?</h2>
	
	<h3>Please, feel free to use them! <emo>😅</emo><emo>👍</emo></h3>
	<p><b>nSigma</b> Many backends don't support it: LM Studio, OpenRouter, and any OpenAI compliant backends… It's a good one, so use it if you can. 2.0 is a nice starting value.</p>
	<p><b>Repetition Penalty</b> Another good setting to use, but it would be cheating for the SOLO test used in my Benchmark. 1.06 is a good default value.</p>

<p><s><b>Mistral</b></s> if you still have that template, delete it. It's not included anymore in fresh installs of SillyTavern.

<p>Best source for info was found at the bottom of <a href="https://github.com/mistralai/mistral-common/blob/main/src/mistral_common/tokens/tokenizers/mistral.py">Mistral Tokenizer code</a>.</p>
<p>I believe that Mistral v7-tekken is just another name for v7.</p>

<h2><emo>⬅️</emo><emo>🧠</emo><emo>➡️</emo> Mistral Small 3.2 get a different personality when used with pre-V7 templates</h2>
<p>Not using the SYSTEM_PROMPT section from V7 seems to trigger different neural pathways, with major differences on outputs.
	<br>Using V3: Roleplay is unhinged, but 🤖Assistant is reluctant.
	<br>Using V7: Roleplay is censored, but 🤖Assistant is relaxed.
</p>

<h2><emo>📢</emo><emo>👄</emo><b>Mistral Small</b> models are too verbose <emo>🤬</emo></h2>
<p>You can soften them using <a href="https://huggingface.co/sleepdeprived3/Mistral-V7-Tekken-Concise">this prompt</a></p>
<pre style="margin-left: 5em;">Engage in immersive roleplay through concise responses. Prioritize:
1. **Character Embodiment:** Express through actions/emotions, not exposition
2. **Scene Momentum:** Advance interaction; avoid static descriptions
3. **User Agency:** React to inputs, don't dictate {{user}}'s actions
4. **Variety:** No repeated phrases or concepts in consecutive responses
5. **Short Replies:** Responses must be concise. Use fragments for intensity. Describe only what's immediately perceptible.
</pre>

	<h2><emo class="large">🕵️</emo> Doing your own investigation</h2>
		<p>Finding what the model is build upon (aka baseline, or 'base' model) is essential to select the correct settings.</p>
	<p><emo>1️⃣</emo> Your starting point browse is the read.me page of the GGUF or MLX model you downloaded on HuggingFace.com. Search for the word <em>Temperature</em>.</p>
	<p><emo>2️⃣</emo> If nothing is specified there, there is often a link to the source model, the one that was used to create the quantized files. The source is the one with safetensors files.</p>
	<p><emo>3️⃣</emo> If nothing is specified there, you will have to look for reference to the base model.</p>
	<p><emo>4️⃣</emo> If nothing is specified there, use the generic bare-bone settings I suggested at the begining of this page.</p>
