Qwen Model Documentation - COMPLETE β
π― Problem Identified
You reported that there was no documentation about Qwen models even though ATLES mostly uses Qwen models, and the documentation listed random models that weren't actually being used (like Meta Llama, Microsoft Phi models, TinyLlama, DialoGPT, etc.).
β What Was Fixed
1. Created Comprehensive Qwen Models Guide π
New File: docs/guides/QWEN_MODELS_GUIDE.md
A complete guide covering:
- β
All Qwen models used in ATLES:
- Qwen2.5:7b (Primary conversational model)
- Qwen2.5-Coder:latest (Specialized coding model)
- Qwen2:7b (Backup model)
- β Model capabilities and use cases
- β Intelligent Model Router documentation
- β Installation instructions (Ollama setup)
- β Model hierarchy and priority
- β Performance benchmarks (speed, resource usage, quality)
- β Model comparison tables
- β Troubleshooting guide
- β Best practices
- β FAQ section
Also documents supporting models:
- EmbeddingGemma:300m (embedding/semantic search)
- Llama3.2:3b (backup)
- Gemma3:4b (alternative backup)
2. Updated README.md π
Replaced the outdated "AI Models Arsenal" section with:
- β Accurate Qwen model listing (not random old models)
- β Model sizes and purposes clearly stated
- β Intelligent Router explanation with examples
- β Ollama installation instructions (Windows, macOS, Linux)
- β Model pull commands for all required models
- β Direct link to comprehensive Qwen Models Guide
Removed: Meta Llama, Microsoft Phi-4/3/2, TinyLlama, DialoGPT mentions (not actually used)
Added: Qwen2.5:7b, Qwen2.5-Coder, EmbeddingGemma, proper model documentation
3. Updated Documentation Index π
File: docs/DOCUMENTATION_INDEX.md
- β Added QWEN_MODELS_GUIDE.md as first entry in User Guides section (highlighted in bold)
- β Clear description: "Complete Qwen models documentation and setup"
- β Easy to find for anyone looking for model information
4. Enhanced Custom Model Setup Guide π§
File: docs/guides/CUSTOM_MODEL_SETUP_INSTRUCTIONS.md
Added extensive new content:
- β Reference to Qwen guide at the top
- β Advanced customization section with multiple model variants
- β Parameter tuning guide with detailed table
- β
Example configurations for different use cases:
- Code generation
- Conversation
- Creative writing
- Technical documentation
- β Testing custom models section
- β Troubleshooting expanded guide
- β System integration instructions
- β Best practices for naming, versioning, testing
- β Advanced weight surgery section
- β Comprehensive FAQ
