+# Copilot Instructions for llama.cpp
+
+## Repository Overview
+
+llama.cpp is a large-scale C/C++ project for efficient LLM (Large Language Model) inference with minimal setup and dependencies. The project enables running language models on diverse hardware with state-of-the-art performance.
+
+**Key Facts:**
+- **Primary language**: C/C++ with Python utility scripts
+- **Size**: ~200k+ lines of code across 1000+ files
+- **Architecture**: Modular design with main library (`libllama`) and 40+ executable tools/examples
+- **Core dependency**: ggml tensor library (vendored in `ggml/` directory)
+- **Backends supported**: CPU (AVX/NEON optimized), CUDA, Metal, Vulkan, SYCL, ROCm, MUSA
+- **License**: MIT
+
+## Build Instructions
+
+### Prerequisites
+- CMake 3.14+ (primary build system)
+- C++17 compatible compiler (GCC 13.3+, Clang, MSVC)
+- Optional: ccache for faster compilation
+
+### Basic Build (CPU-only)
+**ALWAYS run these commands in sequence:**
+```bash
+cmake -B build
+cmake --build build --config Release -j $(nproc)
+```
+
+**Build time**: ~10 minutes on 4-core system with ccache enabled, ~25 minutes without ccache.
+
+**Important Notes:**
+- The Makefile is deprecated - always use CMake
+- ccache is automatically detected and used if available
+- Built binaries are placed in `build/bin/`
+- Parallel builds (`-j`) significantly reduce build time
+
+### Backend-Specific Builds
+For CUDA support:
+```bash
+cmake -B build -DGGML_CUDA=ON
+cmake --build build --config Release -j $(nproc)
+```
+
+For Metal (macOS):
+```bash
+cmake -B build -DGGML_METAL=ON
+cmake --build build --config Release -j $(nproc)
+```
+
+**Important Note**: While all backends can be built as long as the correct requirements for that backend are installed, you will not be able to run them without the correct hardware. The only backend that can be run for testing and validation is the CPU backend.
+
+### Debug Builds
+Single-config generators:
+```bash
+cmake -B build -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug
+cmake --build build
+```
+
+Multi-config generators:
+```bash
+cmake -B build -G "Xcode"
+cmake --build build --config Debug
+```
+
+### Common Build Issues
+- **Issue**: Network tests fail in isolated environments
+  **Solution**: Expected behavior - core functionality tests will still pass
+
+## Testing
+
+### Running Tests
+```bash
+ctest --test-dir build --output-on-failure -j $(nproc)
+```
+
+**Test suite**: 38 tests covering tokenizers, grammar parsing, sampling, backends, and integration
+**Expected failures**: 2-3 tests may fail if network access is unavailable (they download models)
+**Test time**: ~30 seconds for passing tests
+
+### Server Unit Tests
+Run server-specific unit tests after building the server:
+```bash
+# Build the server first
+cmake --build build --target llama-server
+
+# Navigate to server tests and run
+cd tools/server/tests
+source ../../../.venv/bin/activate
+./tests.sh
+```
+**Server test dependencies**: The `.venv` environment includes the required dependencies for server unit tests (pytest, aiohttp, etc.). Tests can be run individually or with various options as documented in `tools/server/tests/README.md`.
+
+### Test Categories
+- Tokenizer tests: Various model tokenizers (BERT, GPT-2, LLaMA, etc.)
+- Grammar tests: GBNF parsing and validation
+- Backend tests: Core ggml operations across different backends
+- Integration tests: End-to-end workflows
+
+### Manual Testing Commands
+```bash
+# Test basic inference
+./build/bin/llama-cli --version
+
+# Test model loading (requires model file)
+./build/bin/llama-cli -m path/to/model.gguf -p "Hello" -n 10
+```
+
+## Code Quality and Linting
+
+### C++ Code Formatting
+**ALWAYS format C++ code before committing:**
+```bash
+git clang-format
+```
+
+Configuration is in `.clang-format` with these key rules:
+- 4-space indentation
+- 120 column limit
+- Braces on same line for functions
+- Pointer alignment: `void * ptr` (middle)
+- Reference alignment: `int & ref` (middle)
+
+### Python Code
+**ALWAYS activate the Python environment in `.venv` and use tools from that environment:**
+```bash
+# Activate virtual environment
+source .venv/bin/activate
+```
+
+Configuration files:
+- `.flake8`: flake8 settings (max-line-length=125, excludes examples/tools)
+- `pyrightconfig.json`: pyright type checking configuration
+
+### Pre-commit Hooks
+Run before committing:
+```bash
+pre-commit run --all-files
+```
+
+## Continuous Integration
+
+### GitHub Actions Workflows
+Key workflows that run on every PR:
+- `.github/workflows/build.yml`: Multi-platform builds
+- `.github/workflows/server.yml`: Server functionality tests
+- `.github/workflows/python-lint.yml`: Python code quality
+- `.github/workflows/python-type-check.yml`: Python type checking
+
+### Local CI Validation
+**Run full CI locally before submitting PRs:**
+```bash
+mkdir tmp
+
+# CPU-only build
+bash ./ci/run.sh ./tmp/results ./tmp/mnt
+```
+
+**CI Runtime**: 30-60 minutes depending on backend configuration
+
+### Triggering CI
+Add `ggml-ci` to commit message to trigger heavy CI workloads on the custom CI infrastructure.
+
+## Project Layout and Architecture
+
+### Core Directories
+- **`src/`**: Main llama library implementation (`llama.cpp`, `llama-*.cpp`)
+- **`include/`**: Public API headers, primarily `include/llama.h`
+- **`ggml/`**: Core tensor library (submodule with custom GGML framework)
+- **`examples/`**: 30+ example applications and tools
+- **`tools/`**: Additional development and utility tools (server benchmarks, tests)

+
+### Code Changes
+- **Minimal dependencies**: Avoid adding new external dependencies
+- **Cross-platform compatibility**: Test on Linux, macOS, Windows when possible
+- **Performance focus**: This is a performance-critical inference library
+- **API stability**: Changes to `include/llama.h` require careful consideration
+
+### Git Workflow
+- Always create feature branches from `master`
+- **Never** commit build artifacts (`build/`, `.ccache/`, `*.o`, `*.gguf`)
+- Use descriptive commit messages following project conventions
+
+### Trust These Instructions
+Only search for additional information if these instructions are incomplete or found to be incorrect. This document contains validated build and test procedures that work reliably across different environments.

+First, follow the official LunarG instructions for the installation and setup of the Vulkan SDK in the [Getting Started with the Linux Tarball Vulkan SDK](https://vulkan.lunarg.com/doc/sdk/latest/linux/getting_started.html) guide.
 
-For example, on Ubuntu 22.04 (jammy), use the command below:

+> After completing the first step, ensure that you have used the `source` command on the `setup_env.sh` file inside of the Vulkan SDK in your current terminal session. Otherwise, the build won't work. Additionally, if you close out of your terminal, you must perform this step again if you intend to perform a build. However, there are ways to make this persistent. Refer to the Vulkan SDK guide linked in the first step for more information about any of this.
 
+Second, after verifying that you have followed all of the SDK installation/setup steps, use this command to make sure before proceeding:
 ```bash
-wget -qO - https://packages.lunarg.com/lunarg-signing-key-pub.asc | apt-key add -
-wget -qO /etc/apt/sources.list.d/lunarg-vulkan-jammy.list https://packages.lunarg.com/vulkan/lunarg-vulkan-jammy.list
-apt update -y
-apt-get install -y vulkan-sdk
-# To verify the installation, use the command below:
 vulkaninfo
 ```
 
-Alternatively your package manager might be able to provide the appropriate libraries.
-For example for Ubuntu 22.04 you can install `libvulkan-dev` instead.
-For Fedora 40, you can install `vulkan-devel`, `glslc` and `glslang` packages.
-
-Then, build llama.cpp using the cmake command below:
-
+Then, assuming you have `cd` into your llama.cpp folder and there are no errors with running `vulkaninfo`, you can proceed to build llama.cpp using the CMake commands below:

+## WebGPU [In Progress]
+
+The WebGPU backend relies on [Dawn](https://dawn.googlesource.com/dawn). Follow the instructions [here](https://dawn.googlesource.com/dawn/+/refs/heads/main/docs/quickstart-cmake.md) to install Dawn locally so that llama.cpp can find it using CMake. The currrent implementation is up-to-date with Dawn commit `bed1a61`.
+
+In the llama.cpp directory, build with CMake:
+
+```
+cmake -B build -DGGML_WEBGPU=ON
+cmake --build build --config Release
+```
+
+### Browser Support
+
+WebGPU allows cross-platform access to the GPU from supported browsers. We utilize [Emscripten](https://emscripten.org/) to compile ggml's WebGPU backend to WebAssembly. Emscripten does not officially support WebGPU bindings yet, but Dawn currently maintains its own WebGPU bindings called emdawnwebgpu.
+
+Follow the instructions [here](https://dawn.googlesource.com/dawn/+/refs/heads/main/src/emdawnwebgpu/) to download or build the emdawnwebgpu package (Note that it might be safer to build the emdawbwebgpu package locally, so that it stays in sync with the version of Dawn you have installed above). When building using CMake, the path to the emdawnwebgpu port file needs to be set with the flag `EMDAWNWEBGPU_DIR`.

-- `Model#set_vocab`
-- `Model#write_tensors`

 NOTE: Tensor names must end with `.weight` or `.bias` suffixes, that is the convention and several tools like `quantize` expect this to proceed the weights.

-The model params and tensors layout must be defined in `llama.cpp`:
-1. Define a new `llm_arch`
-2. Define the tensors layout in `LLM_TENSOR_NAMES`
-3. Add any non-standard metadata in `llm_load_hparams`

+4. If the model has a RoPE operation, add a case for the architecture in `llama_model_rope_type` function in `src/llama-model.cpp`.
 
 NOTE: The dimensions in `ggml` are typically in the reverse order of the `pytorch` dimensions.

+# Model Conversion Example
+This directory contains scripts and code to help in the process of converting
+HuggingFace PyTorch models to GGUF format.
+
+The motivation for having this is that the conversion process can often be an
+iterative process, where the original model is inspected, converted, updates
+made to llama.cpp, converted again, etc. Once the model has been converted it
+needs to be verified against the original model, and then optionally quantified,
+and in some cases perplexity checked of the quantized model. And finally the
+model/models need to the ggml-org on Hugging Face. This tool/example tries to
+help with this process.
+
+### Overview
+The idea is that the makefile targets and scripts here can be used in the
+development/conversion process assisting with things like:
+
+* inspect/run the original model to figure out how it works
+* convert the original model to GGUF format
+* inspect/run the converted model
+* verify the logits produced by the original model and the converted model
+* quantize the model to GGUF format
+* run perplexity evaluation to verify that the quantized model is performing
+  as expected
+* upload the model to HuggingFace to make it available for others
+
+## Setup
+Create virtual python environment
+```console
+$ python3.11 -m venv venv
+$ source venv/bin/activate
+(venv) $ pip install -r requirements.txt
+```
+
+## Causal Language Model Conversion
+This section describes the steps to convert a causal language model to GGUF and
+to verify that the conversion was successful.
+
+### Download the original model
+First, clone the original model to some local directory:
+```console
+$ mkdir models && cd models
+$ git clone https://huggingface.co/user/model_name
+$ cd model_name
+$ git lfs install
+$ git lfs pull
+```
+
+### Set the MODEL_PATH
+The path to the downloaded model can be provided in two ways:
+
+**Option 1: Environment variable (recommended for iterative development)**
+```console
+export MODEL_PATH=~/work/ai/models/some_model
+```
+
+**Option 2: Command line argument (for one-off tasks)**
+```console
+make causal-convert-model MODEL_PATH=~/work/ai/models/some_model
+```
+
+Command line arguments take precedence over environment variables when both are provided.
+
+In cases where the transformer implementation for the model has not been released
+yet it is possible to set the environment variable `UNRELEASED_MODEL_NAME` which
+will then cause the transformer implementation to be loaded explicitely and not
+use AutoModelForCausalLM:
+```
+export UNRELEASED_MODEL_NAME=SomeNewModel
+```
+
+### Inspecting the original tensors
+```console
+# Using environment variable
+(venv) $ make causal-inspect-original-model
+
+# Or using command line argument
+(venv) $ make causal-inspect-original-model MODEL_PATH=~/work/ai/models/some_model
+```
+
+### Running the original model
+This is mainly to verify that the original model works, and to compare the output
+from the converted model.
+```console
+# Using environment variable
+(venv) $ make causal-run-original-model
+
+# Or using command line argument
+(venv) $ make causal-run-original-model MODEL_PATH=~/work/ai/models/some_model
+```
+This command will save two files to the `data` directory, one is a binary file
+containing logits which will be used for comparison with the converted model
+later, and the other is a text file which allows for manual visual inspection.
+
+### Model conversion
+After updates have been made to [gguf-py](../../gguf-py) to add support for the
+new model, the model can be converted to GGUF format using the following command:
+```console
+# Using environment variable
+(venv) $ make causal-convert-model
+
+# Or using command line argument
+(venv) $ make causal-convert-model MODEL_PATH=~/work/ai/models/some_model
+```
+
+### Inspecting the converted model
+The converted model can be inspected using the following command:
+```console
+(venv) $ make inspect-converted-model
+```
+
+### Running the converted model
+```console
+(venv) $ make run-converted-model
+```
+
+### Model logits verfication
+The following target will run the original model and the converted model and
+compare the logits:
+```console
+(venv) $ make causal-verify-logits
+```
+
+### Quantizing the model
+The causal model can be quantized to GGUF format using the following command:
+```console
+(venv) $ make causal-quantize-Q8_0
+Quantized model saved to: /path/to/quantized/model-Q8_0.gguf
+Export the quantized model path to QUANTIZED_MODEL variable in your environment
+```
+This will show the path to the quantized model in the terminal, which can then
+be used to set the `QUANTIZED_MODEL` environment variable:
+```console
+export QUANTIZED_MODEL=/path/to/quantized/model-Q8_0.gguf
+```
+Then the quantized model can be run using the following command:
+```console
+(venv) $ make causal-run-quantized-model
+```
+
+### Quantizing QAT (Quantization Aware Training) models
+When quantizing to `Q4_0`, the default data type for the token embedding weights
+will be `Q6_K`. For models that are going to be uploaded to ggml-org it is
+recommended to use `Q8_0` instead for the embeddings and output tensors.
+The reason is that although `Q6_K` is smaller in size, it requires more compute
+to unpack, which can hurt performance during output generation when the entire
+embedding matrix must be dequantized to compute vocabulary logits. `Q8_0`
+provides practically full quality with better computational efficiency.
+```console
+(venv) $ make causal-quantize-qat-Q4_0
+```
+
+
+## Embedding Language Model Conversion
+
+### Download the original model
+```console
+$ mkdir models && cd models
+$ git clone https://huggingface.co/user/model_name
+$ cd model_name
+$ git lfs install
+$ git lfs pull
+```
+
+The path to the embedding model can be provided in two ways:
+
+**Option 1: Environment variable (recommended for iterative development)**
+```console
+export EMBEDDING_MODEL_PATH=~/path/to/embedding_model
+```
+
+**Option 2: Command line argument (for one-off tasks)**
+```console
+make embedding-convert-model EMBEDDING_MODEL_PATH=~/path/to/embedding_model
+```
+
+Command line arguments take precedence over environment variables when both are provided.
+
+### Running the original model
+This is mainly to verify that the original model works and to compare the output
+with the output from the converted model.
+```console
+# Using environment variable
+(venv) $ make embedding-run-original-model
+
+# Or using command line argument
+(venv) $ make embedding-run-original-model EMBEDDING_MODEL_PATH=~/path/to/embedding_model
+```
+This command will save two files to the `data` directory, one is a binary
+file containing logits which will be used for comparison with the converted
+model, and the other is a text file which allows for manual visual inspection.
+
+### Model conversion
+After updates have been made to [gguf-py](../../gguf-py) to add support for the
+new model the model can be converted to GGUF format using the following command:
+```console
+(venv) $ make embedding-convert-model
+```
+
+### Run the converted model
+```console
+(venv) $ make embedding-run-converted-model
+```
+
+### Model logits verfication
+The following target will run the original model and the converted model (which
+was done manually in the previous steps) and compare the logits:
+```console
+(venv) $ make embedding-verify-logits
+```
+
+### llama-server verification
+To verify that the converted model works with llama-server, the following
+command can be used:
+```console
+(venv) $ make embedding-start-embedding-server
+```
+Then open another terminal and set the `EMBEDDINGS_MODEL_PATH` environment
+variable as this will not be inherited by the new terminal:
+```console
+(venv) $ make embedding-curl-embedding-endpoint
+```
+This will call the `embedding` endpoing and the output will be piped into
+the same verification script as used by the target `embedding-verify-logits`.
+
+The causal model can also be used to produce embeddings and this can be verified
+using the following commands:
+```console
+(venv) $ make causal-start-embedding-server
+```
+Then open another terminal and set the `MODEL_PATH` environment
+variable as this will not be inherited by the new terminal:
+```console
+(venv) $ make casual-curl-embedding-endpoint
+```
+
+### Quantizing the model
+The embedding model can be quantized to GGUF format using the following command:
+```console
+(venv) $ make embedding-quantize-Q8_0
+Quantized model saved to: /path/to/quantized/model-Q8_0.gguf
+Export the quantized model path to QUANTIZED_EMBEDDING_MODEL variable in your environment
+```
+This will show the path to the quantized model in the terminal, which can then
+be used to set the `QUANTIZED_EMBEDDING_MODEL` environment variable:
+```console
+export QUANTIZED_EMBEDDING_MODEL=/path/to/quantized/model-Q8_0.gguf
+```
+Then the quantized model can be run using the following command:
+```console
+(venv) $ make embedding-run-quantized-model
+```
+
+### Quantizing QAT (Quantization Aware Training) models
+When quantizing to `Q4_0`, the default data type for the token embedding weights
+will be `Q6_K`. For models that are going to be uploaded to ggml-org it is
+recommended to use `Q8_0` instead for the embeddings and output tensors.
+The reason is that although `Q6_K` is smaller in size, it requires more compute
+to unpack, which can hurt performance during output generation when the entire
+embedding matrix must be dequantized to compute vocabulary logits. `Q8_0`
+provides practically full quality with better computational efficiency.
+```console
+(venv) $ make embedding-quantize-qat-Q4_0
+```
+
+## Perplexity Evaluation
+
+### Simple perplexity evaluation
+This allows to run the perplexity evaluation without having to generate a
+token/logits file:
+```console
+(venv) $ make perplexity-run QUANTIZED_MODEL=~/path/to/quantized/model.gguf
+```
+This will use the wikitext dataset to run the perplexity evaluation and
+output the perplexity score to the terminal. This value can then be compared
+with the perplexity score of the unquantized model.
+
+### Full perplexity evaluation
+First use the converted, non-quantized, model to generate the perplexity evaluation
+dataset using the following command:
+```console
+$ make perplexity-data-gen CONVERTED_MODEL=~/path/to/converted/model.gguf
+```
+This will generate a file in the `data` directory named after the model and with
+a `.kld` suffix which contains the tokens and the logits for the wikitext dataset.
+
+After the dataset has been generated, the perplexity evaluation can be run using
+the quantized model:
+```console
+$ make perplexity-run-full QUANTIZED_MODEL=~/path/to/quantized/model-Qxx.gguf LOGITS_FILE=data/model.gguf.ppl
+```
+
+> 📝 **Note:** The `LOGITS_FILE` is the file generated by the previous command
+> can be very large, so make sure you have enough disk space available.
+
+## HuggingFace utilities
+The following targets are useful for creating collections and model repositories
+on Hugging Face in the the ggml-org. These can be used when preparing a relase
+to script the process for new model releases.
+
+For the following targets a `HF_TOKEN` environment variable is required.
+
+> 📝 **Note:** Don't forget to logout from Hugging Face after running these
+> commands, otherwise you might have issues pulling/cloning repositories as
+> the token will still be in use:
+> $ huggingface-cli logout
+> $ unset HF_TOKEN
+
+### Create a new Hugging Face Model (model repository)
+This will create a new model repsository on Hugging Face with the specified
+model name.
+```console
+(venv) $ make hf-create-model MODEL_NAME='TestModel' NAMESPACE="danbev" ORIGINAL_BASE_MODEL="some-base-model"
+Repository ID:  danbev/TestModel-GGUF
+Repository created: https://huggingface.co/danbev/TestModel-GGUF
+```
+Note that we append a `-GGUF` suffix to the model name to ensure a consistent
+naming convention for GGUF models.
+
+An embedding model can be created using the following command:
+```console
+(venv) $ make hf-create-model-embedding MODEL_NAME='TestEmbeddingModel' NAMESPACE="danbev" ORIGINAL_BASE_MODEL="some-base-model"
+```
+The only difference is that the model card for an embedding model will be different
+with regards to the llama-server command and also how to access/call the embedding
+endpoint.
+
+### Upload a GGUF model to model repository
+The following target uploads a model to an existing Hugging Face model repository.
+```console
+(venv) $ make hf-upload-gguf-to-model MODEL_PATH=dummy-model1.gguf REPO_ID=danbev/TestModel-GGUF
+📤 Uploading dummy-model1.gguf to danbev/TestModel-GGUF/dummy-model1.gguf
+✅ Upload successful!
+🔗 File available at: https://huggingface.co/danbev/TestModel-GGUF/blob/main/dummy-model1.gguf
+```
+This command can also be used to update an existing model file in a repository.
+
+### Create a new Collection
+```console
+(venv) $ make hf-new-collection NAME=TestCollection DESCRIPTION="Collection for testing scripts" NAMESPACE=danbev
+🚀 Creating Hugging Face Collection
+Title: TestCollection
+Description: Collection for testing scripts

+
+Recommended way to run this model:
+
+```sh
+llama-server -hf {namespace}/{model_name}-GGUF
+```
+
+Then the endpoint can be accessed at http://localhost:8080/embedding, for
+example using `curl`:
+```console
+curl --request POST \
+    --url http://localhost:8080/embedding \
+    --header "Content-Type: application/json" \
+    --data '{{"input": "Hello embeddings"}}' \
+    --silent
+```
+
+Alternatively, the `llama-embedding` command line tool can be used:
+```sh
+llama-embedding -hf {namespace}/{model_name}-GGUF --verbose-prompt -p "Hello embeddings"
+```
+
+#### embd_normalize
+When a model uses pooling, or the pooling method is specified using `--pooling`,
+the normalization can be controlled by the `embd_normalize` parameter.
+
+The default value is `2` which means that the embeddings are normalized using
+the Euclidean norm (L2). Other options are:
+* -1 No normalization
+*  0 Max absolute
+*  1 Taxicab
+*  2 Euclidean/L2
+* \>2 P-Norm
+
+This can be passed in the request body to `llama-server`, for example:
+```sh
+    --data '{{"input": "Hello embeddings", "embd_normalize": -1}}' \
+```
+
+And for `llama-embedding`, by passing `--embd-normalize <value>`, for example:
+```sh
+llama-embedding -hf {namespace}/{model_name}-GGUF  --embd-normalize -1 -p "Hello embeddings"
+```
