Libraries

How to use willamazon1/sdft-tau-lora-iter160 with Transformers:

# Use a pipeline as a high-level helper

]
pipe(messages)

# Load model directly
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForCausalLM

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("willamazon1/sdft-tau-lora-iter160")
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("willamazon1/sdft-tau-lora-iter160", device_map="auto")
messages = [
    {"role": "user", "content": "Who are you?"},
]
inputs = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(
	messages,
	add_generation_prompt=True,

	return_dict=True,
	return_tensors="pt",
).to(model.device)

outputs = model.generate(**inputs, max_new_tokens=40)

	# sdft-tau-lora-iter160

	Qwen3-8B, multi-stage SFT (SDFT) checkpoint with a tau-bench RL LoRA adapter merged in.
	Full weights, ready to load with `transformers` / SGLang / vLLM — no PEFT needed.

	## Lineage

	\| Stage \| What \|
	\|---\|---\|
	\| Base \| `Qwen/Qwen3-8B-Base` \|
	\| SDFT \| multi-stage SFT chain: Math → Sea → Search → TauSFT → Tau-IF \|
	\| RL \| GSPO on tau-bench `retail` (train split), LoRA-only (base frozen), iteration 160 \|

	## RL / LoRA configuration

	- adapter: rank 16, alpha 32 (scaling = alpha/r = 2.0), dropout 0.0
	- targets: `linear_qkv`, `linear_proj`, `linear_fc1`, `linear_fc2` on all 36 layers
	(144 modules, 288 tensors)
	- advantage estimator GSPO, KL loss 0.01 (`low_var_kl`), eps-clip 0.2/0.25
	- Adam, lr 1e-6 constant, weight decay 0.01
	- TIS off (its sequence-level rejection veto zeroes essentially every LoRA sequence)
	- user simulator: GLM-4.7-Flash served in-cluster (matches tau-bench's LLM-user setup)

	## How it was exported

	The adapter was merged in Megatron parameter space (`W += 2.0 · B·A` per LoRA'd module,
	into the frozen base weights carried by the same `iter_0000160` torch_dist checkpoint), then
	converted to HuggingFace safetensors. Merging before conversion avoids having to un-fuse the
	GQA-interleaved QKV and the gate/up split by hand. LayerNorm weights are untouched — the LoRA
	delta applies to the post-LN matmuls only.

	Verification performed on the export:

	- adapter health gate: 144/144 modules have non-zero `lora_B` (max `\|lora_B\|` = 9.82e-05),
	so the adapter is genuinely trained rather than sitting at its zero init
	- relative delta size `‖ΔW‖/‖W‖`: min 3.76e-05, median 5.01e-05, max 1.11e-04
	- 0 non-finite tensors across all 4 shards; 399 tensors, 15.26 GiB, index complete

	## Usage

	```python
	from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer

	model_id = "willamazon1/sdft-tau-lora-iter160"
	tok = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_id)
	model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(model_id, dtype="bfloat16", device_map="auto")
	```

	Note this is derived from a base (non-instruct) Qwen3 checkpoint plus SFT/RL stages; use the
	same prompt format as the tau-bench agent it was trained with rather than assuming a generic
	chat template.
