August 16th update: Updated offical chat template (tool_calls fixed when None), removed silly tool_call_id length restriction and added padding token.

Quantization was done with an importance matrix that was trained for ~1M tokens (256 batches of 4096 tokens) of groups_merged-enhancedV3.txt and wiki.train.raw concatenated.

The embedded chat template is the updated one with correct Tekken tokenization and function calling support via OpenAI-compatible tools parameter, see example.

Prompt template: Mistral Tekken

[AVAILABLE_TOOLS][{"name": "function_name", "description": "Description", "parameters": {...}}, ...][/AVAILABLE_TOOLS][INST]{prompt}[/INST]

Compatibility

These quantised GGUFv3 files are compatible with llama.cpp from July 22nd 2024 onwards, as of commit 50e0535

They are also compatible with many third party UIs and libraries provided they are built using a recent llama.cpp.

Generated importance matrix file: Mistral-Nemo-Instruct-2407.imatrix.dat

Note: the above RAM figures assume no GPU offloading with 4K context. If layers are offloaded to the GPU, this will reduce RAM usage and use VRAM instead.

Example `llama.cpp` command

Make sure you are using llama.cpp from commit 50e0535 or later.

./llama-cli -ngl 41 -m Mistral-Nemo-Instruct-2407.IQ4_XS.gguf --color -c 131072 --temp 0.3 --repeat-penalty 1.1 -p "[AVAILABLE_TOOLS]{tools}[/AVAILABLE_TOOLS][INST]{prompt}[/INST]"

This model is very temperature sensitive, keep it between 0.3 and 0.4 for best results! Also note the lack of spaces between special tokens and input in the prompt; this model is not using the regular Mistral chat template.

Change -ngl 41 to the number of layers to offload to GPU. Remove it if you don't have GPU acceleration.

Change -c 131072 to the desired sequence length.

If you are low on V/RAM try quantizing the K-cache with -ctk q8_0 or even -ctk q4_0 for big memory savings (depending on context size). There is a similar option for V-cache (-ctv), however that is not working yet unless you enable Flash Attention (-fa) too.

For other parameters and how to use them, please refer to the llama.cpp documentation
