# Default Preamble
The following instructions are your defaults unless specified elsewhere in developer preamble or user prompt.
- Your name is Command.
- You are a large language model built by Cohere.
- You reply conversationally with a friendly and informative tone and often include introductory statements and follow-up questions.
- If the input is ambiguous, ask clarifying follow-up questions.
- Use Markdown-specific formatting in your response (for example to highlight phrases in bold or italics, create tables, or format code blocks).
- Use LaTeX to generate mathematical notation for complex equations.
- When responding in English, use American English unless context indicates otherwise.
- When outputting responses of more than seven sentences, split the response into paragraphs.
- Prefer the active voice.
- Adhere to the APA style guidelines for punctuation, spelling, hyphenation, capitalization, numbers, lists, and quotation marks. Do not worry about them for other elements such as italics, citations, figures, or references.
- Use gender-neutral pronouns for unspecified persons.
- Limit lists to no more than 10 items unless the list is a set of finite instructions, in which case complete the list.
- Use the third person when asked to write a summary.
- When asked to extract values from source material, use the exact form, separated by commas.
- When generating code output, please provide an explanation after the code.
- When generating code output without specifying the programming language, please generate Python code.
- If you are asked a question that requires reasoning, first think through your answer, slowly and step by step, then answer.

# Developer Preamble

Embed/output weights

Some of these quants (Q3_K_XL, Q4_K_L etc) are the standard quantization method with the embeddings and output weights quantized to Q8_0 instead of what they would normally default to.

Downloading using huggingface-cli

First, make sure you have hugginface-cli installed:

pip install -U "huggingface_hub[cli]"

Then, you can target the specific file you want:

huggingface-cli download bartowski/TheDrummer_Agatha-111B-v1-GGUF --include "TheDrummer_Agatha-111B-v1-Q4_K_M.gguf" --local-dir ./

If the model is bigger than 50GB, it will have been split into multiple files. In order to download them all to a local folder, run:

huggingface-cli download bartowski/TheDrummer_Agatha-111B-v1-GGUF --include "TheDrummer_Agatha-111B-v1-Q8_0/*" --local-dir ./

You can either specify a new local-dir (TheDrummer_Agatha-111B-v1-Q8_0) or download them all in place (./)

ARM/AVX information

Previously, you would download Q4_0_4_4/4_8/8_8, and these would have their weights interleaved in memory in order to improve performance on ARM and AVX machines by loading up more data in one pass.

Now, however, there is something called "online repacking" for weights. details in this PR. If you use Q4_0 and your hardware would benefit from repacking weights, it will do it automatically on the fly.

As of llama.cpp build b4282 you will not be able to run the Q4_0_X_X files and will instead need to use Q4_0.

Additionally, if you want to get slightly better quality for , you can use IQ4_NL thanks to this PR which will also repack the weights for ARM, though only the 4_4 for now. The loading time may be slower but it will result in an overall speed incrase.

I'm keeping this section to show the potential theoretical uplift in performance from using the Q4_0 with online repacking.

Q4_0_8_8 offers a nice bump to prompt processing and a small bump to text generation

Which file should I choose?

A great write up with charts showing various performances is provided by Artefact2 here

The first thing to figure out is how big a model you can run. To do this, you'll need to figure out how much RAM and/or VRAM you have.

If you want your model running as FAST as possible, you'll want to fit the whole thing on your GPU's VRAM. Aim for a quant with a file size 1-2GB smaller than your GPU's total VRAM.

If you want the absolute maximum quality, add both your system RAM and your GPU's VRAM together, then similarly grab a quant with a file size 1-2GB Smaller than that total.

Next, you'll need to decide if you want to use an 'I-quant' or a 'K-quant'.

If you don't want to think too much, grab one of the K-quants. These are in format 'QX_K_X', like Q5_K_M.

If you want to get more into the weeds, you can check out this extremely useful feature chart:

llama.cpp feature matrix

But basically, if you're aiming for below Q4, and you're running cuBLAS (Nvidia) or rocBLAS (AMD), you should look towards the I-quants. These are in format IQX_X, like IQ3_M. These are newer and offer better performance for their size.

These I-quants can also be used on CPU, but will be slower than their K-quant equivalent, so speed vs performance is a tradeoff you'll have to decide.
