Extending Models
Before documenting a new model path, decide whether it is a registry model, a manual SGLang-KT tutorial, or an experimental page.
Minimum Documentation Checklist
- model family and exact checkpoint
- package set and version caveats
- launch entry:
kt runor manualpython -m sglang.launch_server --kt-method--kt-weight-pathexpectation- CPU ISA/backend requirement
- GPU memory and tensor parallel assumptions
- parser or chat-template requirements
- smoke result or explicit
Needs smoke
Registry Candidate
A model is a registry candidate when:
- the command can be represented by stable defaults;
- aliases are clear;
- tensor parallel limits and parser options are known;
kt run <alias> --dry-runproduces the intended launch command.
Manual Tutorial Candidate
Keep a model as a manual tutorial when it needs:
- special environment versions;
- model-specific conversion steps;
- non-default attention or quantization behavior;
- hardware that has not been broadly validated.
