Mistral-Small-24B-Instruct-2501 - EXL2 6.5bpw L

This is a 6.5bpw EXL2 quant of mistralai/Mistral-Small-24B-Instruct-2501

This quant was made using exllamav2-0.2.7 with default dataset and extended quantization sample length (8k instead of default 2k). It also uses -head_bits=8 and max accuracy quant for first and last layer (8bpw), all other layers of the model use normally chosen methods (method and name (6.5bpw_L) inspired by quants like Q4_K_L and Q6_K_L made by bartowski)

It fits nicely in 24GB VRAM on Windows with 20k fp16 context (should fit all 32k that with q8 cache in exl2).

Prompt Templates

Uses Mistral V7-tekken:

<s>[SYSTEM_PROMPT]<system prompt>[/SYSTEM_PROMPT][INST]<user message>[/INST]<assistant response></s>[INST]<user message>[/INST]

Model Card for Mistral-Small-24B-Instruct-2501

Mistral Small 3 ( 2501 ) sets a new benchmark in the "small" Large Language Models category below 70B, boasting 24B parameters and achieving state-of-the-art capabilities comparable to larger models!
This model is an instruction-fine-tuned version of the base model: Mistral-Small-24B-Base-2501.

Mistral Small can be deployed locally and is exceptionally "knowledge-dense", fitting in a single RTX 4090 or a 32GB RAM MacBook once quantized.
Perfect for:

Fast response conversational agents.
Low latency function calling.
Subject matter experts via fine-tuning.
Local inference for hobbyists and organizations handling sensitive data.

For enterprises that need specialized capabilities (increased context, particular modalities, domain specific knowledge, etc.), we will be releasing commercial models beyond what Mistral AI contributes to the community.

This release demonstrates our commitment to open source, serving as a strong base model.

Learn more about Mistral Small in our blog post.

Key Features

Multilingual: Supports dozens of languages, including English, French, German, Spanish, Italian, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, Dutch, and Polish.
Agent-Centric: Offers best-in-class agentic capabilities with native function calling and JSON outputting.
Advanced Reasoning: State-of-the-art conversational and reasoning capabilities.
Apache 2.0 License: Open license allowing usage and modification for both commercial and non-commercial purposes.
Context Window: A 32k context window.
System Prompt: Maintains strong adherence and support for system prompts.
Tokenizer: Utilizes a Tekken tokenizer with a 131k vocabulary size.

Basic Instruct Template (V7-Tekken)

<s>[SYSTEM_PROMPT]<system prompt>[/SYSTEM_PROMPT][INST]<user message>[/INST]<assistant response></s>[INST]<user message>[/INST]

<system_prompt>, <user message> and <assistant response> are placeholders.

Usage

The model can be used with the following frameworks;

vllm: See here
transformers: See here

vLLM

We recommend using this model with the vLLM library to implement production-ready inference pipelines.

Installation

Make sure you install vLLM >= 0.6.4:

pip install --upgrade vllm

Also make sure you have mistral_common >= 1.5.2 installed:

pip install --upgrade mistral_common

You can also make use of a ready-to-go docker image or on the docker hub.

Server

We recommand that you use Mistral-Small-Instruct-2501 in a server/client setting.

Spin up a server:

vllm serve mistralai/Mistral-Small-24B-Instruct-2501 --tokenizer_mode mistral --config_format mistral --load_format mistral --enable-auto-tool-choice

Note: Running Mistral-Small-Instruct-2501 on GPU requires 60 GB of GPU RAM.

To ping the client you can use a simple Python snippet.

import requests
import json
from datetime import datetime, timedelta

url = "http://<your-server>:8000/v1/chat/completions"
headers = {"Content-Type": "application/json", "Authorization": "Bearer token"}

model = "mistralai/Mistral-Small-24B-Instruct-2501"

messages = [
    {
        "role": "system",
        "content": "You are a conversational agent that always answers straight to the point, always end your accurate response with an ASCII drawing of a cat."
    },
    {
        "role": "user",
        "content": "Give me 5 non-formal ways to say 'See you later' in French."
    },
]

data = {"model": model, "messages": messages}

response = requests.post(url, headers=headers, data=json.dumps(data))
print(response.json()["choices"][0]["message"]["content"])

# Sure, here are five non-formal ways to say "See you later" in French:
#
# 1. À plus tard
# 2. À plus
# 3. Salut
# 4. À toute
# 5. Bisous
#
# ```
#  /\_/\
# ( o.o )
#  > ^ <
# ```

Offline

from vllm import LLM
from vllm.sampling_params import SamplingParams
from datetime import datetime, timedelta

SYSTEM_PROMPT = "You are a conversational agent that always answers straight to the point, always end your accurate response with an ASCII drawing of a cat."

user_prompt = "Give me 5 non-formal ways to say 'See you later' in French."

messages = [

        "content": SYSTEM_PROMPT
    },
    {
        "role": "user",
        "content": user_prompt
    },
]

# note that running this model on GPU requires over 60 GB of GPU RAM
llm = LLM(model=model_name, tokenizer_mode="mistral", tensor_parallel_size=8)

sampling_params = SamplingParams(max_tokens=512)

outputs = llm.chat(messages, sampling_params=sampling_params)

print(outputs[0].outputs[0].text)
# Sure, here are five non-formal ways to say "See you later" in French:
#
# 1. À plus tard
# 2. À plus
# 3. Salut
# 4. À toute
# 5. Bisous

#  > ^ <
# ```

Transformers

If you want to use Hugging Face transformers to generate text, you can do something like this.

from transformers import pipeline

messages = [
    {"role": "system", "content": "You are a conversational agent that always answers straight to the point, always end your accurate response with an ASCII drawing of a cat."},
    {"role": "user", "content": "Give me 5 non-formal ways to say 'See you later' in French."},
]
chatbot = pipeline("text-generation", model="mistralai/Mistral-Small-24B-Instruct-2501", max_new_tokens=256)
chatbot(messages)
