Instructions to use RecursiveSI/flint with libraries, inference providers, notebooks, and local apps. Follow these links to get started.

Libraries

How to use RecursiveSI/flint with Transformers:

# Use a pipeline as a high-level helper
from transformers import pipeline

pipe = pipeline("text-generation", model="RecursiveSI/flint")
messages = [
    {"role": "user", "content": "Who are you?"},
]
pipe(messages)

# pip install -U transformers accelerate
# Load model directly
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForCausalLM

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("RecursiveSI/flint")
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("RecursiveSI/flint", device_map="auto")
messages = [
    {"role": "user", "content": "Who are you?"},
]
inputs = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(
	messages,
	add_generation_prompt=True,
	tokenize=True,
	return_dict=True,
	return_tensors="pt",
).to(model.device)

outputs = model.generate(**inputs, max_new_tokens=256)
print(tokenizer.decode(outputs[0][inputs["input_ids"].shape[-1]:]))

vLLM

How to use RecursiveSI/flint with vLLM:

Install from pip and serve model

# Install vLLM from pip:
pip install vllm
# Start the vLLM server:
vllm serve "RecursiveSI/flint"
# Call the server using curl (OpenAI-compatible API):
curl -X POST "http://localhost:8000/v1/chat/completions" \
	-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
	--data '{
		"model": "RecursiveSI/flint",
		"messages": [
			{
				"role": "user",
				"content": "What is the capital of France?"
			}
		]
	}'

Use Docker

docker model run hf.co/RecursiveSI/flint

SGLang

How to use RecursiveSI/flint with SGLang:

Install from pip and serve model

# Install SGLang from pip:
pip install sglang
# Start the SGLang server:
python3 -m sglang.launch_server \
    --model-path "RecursiveSI/flint" \
    --host 0.0.0.0 \
    --port 30000
# Call the server using curl (OpenAI-compatible API):
curl -X POST "http://localhost:30000/v1/chat/completions" \
	-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
	--data '{
		"model": "RecursiveSI/flint",
		"messages": [
			{
				"role": "user",
				"content": "What is the capital of France?"
			}
		]
	}'

Use Docker images

docker run --gpus all \
    --shm-size 32g \
    -p 30000:30000 \
    -v ~/.cache/huggingface:/root/.cache/huggingface \
    --env "HF_TOKEN=<secret>" \
    --ipc=host \
    lmsysorg/sglang:latest \
    python3 -m sglang.launch_server \
        --model-path "RecursiveSI/flint" \
        --host 0.0.0.0 \
        --port 30000
# Call the server using curl (OpenAI-compatible API):
curl -X POST "http://localhost:30000/v1/chat/completions" \
	-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
	--data '{
		"model": "RecursiveSI/flint",
		"messages": [
			{
				"role": "user",
				"content": "What is the capital of France?"
			}
		]
	}'

It is clumsy, uses a lot of tools. but at least it is doing stuff. and it is fast.
Not even close to the Qwen 3.8 27B, it is alternative for Qwen 3.6 35B A3B.

i'd really love to see some community finetunes of this model.

I agree. This is a good first start as an alternative to Qwen, but not there yet. It's good at tool calling, output, compaction. The responses and thinking are hit or miss. Sometimes it overthinks simple tasks, other times it succeeds when I think it'll fail. Setting --reasoning-budget in llama.cpp is a must - it even handles that well. With a bit of fine tuning this could be something good.
