Libraries

How to use Youssofal/Qwen3.5-4B-MTPLX-Optimized-Speed with MLX:

# Make sure mlx-lm is installed
# pip install --upgrade mlx-lm

# Generate text with mlx-lm
from mlx_lm import load, generate

model, tokenizer = load("Youssofal/Qwen3.5-4B-MTPLX-Optimized-Speed")

prompt = "Write a story about Einstein"
messages = [{"role": "user", "content": prompt}]
prompt = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(
    messages, add_generation_prompt=True
)

text = generate(model, tokenizer, prompt=prompt, verbose=True)

Pi new

How to use Youssofal/Qwen3.5-4B-MTPLX-Optimized-Speed with Pi:

Start the MLX server

# Install MLX LM:
uv tool install mlx-lm
# Start a local OpenAI-compatible server:
mlx_lm.server --model "Youssofal/Qwen3.5-4B-MTPLX-Optimized-Speed"

Configure the model in Pi

# Install Pi:
npm install -g @mariozechner/pi-coding-agent
# Add to ~/.pi/agent/models.json:
{
  "providers": {
    "mlx-lm": {
      "baseUrl": "http://localhost:8080/v1",
      "api": "openai-completions",
      "apiKey": "none",
      "models": [
        {
          "id": "Youssofal/Qwen3.5-4B-MTPLX-Optimized-Speed"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

Run Pi
