# Nanbeige4.3-33B MLX {name}
MLX conversion of [{SOURCE}](https://huggingface.co/{SOURCE}), by the Nanbeige Team.
Source revision: `{REV}`. {quant}
## Usage
```python
from mlx_lm import load, generate
model, tokenizer = load("{repo}")
prompt = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(
[{{"role": "user", "content": "Hello!"}}],
tokenize=False, add_generation_prompt=True, enable_thinking=False)
print(generate(model, tokenizer, prompt=prompt, max_tokens=256))
```
The upstream chat template is preserved. `enable_thinking` controls current reasoning;
`preserve_thinking=True` retains previous reasoning for agent workflows. Upstream recommends
`tool_call_format="xml"`; JSON is also supported. Template support does not certify any server's tool parser.
## Validation
Weight files: {report['weight_bytes']:,} bytes. Tensor count: {report['tensor_count']}.
English/Chinese generation, finite smoke logits, tokenizer equivalence, and eight thinking/tool template cases passed.
Small fixed synthetic diagnostic corpus ({sum(x['tokens'] for x in report['losses'])} scored tokens): mean token NLL {report['mean_nll']:.6f}, perplexity {report['perplexity']:.6f}.
{delta}
{fidelity_text}
This is a conversion regression check, not a standardized capability benchmark or a claim of benchmark equivalence.
See the included validation JSON for outputs and per-category measurements.
The source's 524,288-token context setting is retained; full 512K context has not been validated.
Performance results, when included, apply only to the stated hardware and tested lengths.
## Performance
{performance}
## Reproduction
Use the included `requirements.lock.txt`, `conversion.json`, `evaluation.json`, and `scripts/release.py`.
From the repository root:
```sh
uv venv --python 3.12 .venv
uv pip install --python .venv/bin/python -r requirements.lock.txt
.venv/bin/hf download {SOURCE} --revision {REV} --local-dir source
.venv/bin/python scripts/release.py convert bf16
.venv/bin/python scripts/release.py validate bf16
```
For quantized variants, then run `.venv/bin/python scripts/release.py convert {name}` and
`.venv/bin/python scripts/release.py validate {name}`. All quantized variants derive independently from BF16.
## Attribution
Original model: Nanbeige Team, Nanbeige4.3-33B (2026), Apache-2.0.
Conversion and measurements: fcmeyer. No claim is made that this is universally the best quantization.
