Agnes-SeaLLM-8B

Official GitHub landing page for Agnes-SeaLLM-8B, an open-source multilingual 8B language model optimized for Southeast Asian language use cases.

The model weights are hosted on Hugging Face:

• Model repository: https://huggingface.co/Agnes-AI/Agnes-SeaLLM-8b
• License: Apache-2.0
• Primary format: Safetensors
• Task: Text generation
• Last updated: 2026-06-24

Overview

Agnes-SeaLLM-8B is designed for multilingual reasoning, translation, instruction following, and conversational applications across Southeast Asian language contexts.

This GitHub repository is the official coordination and documentation entry point. It does not mirror the full model weights because the Hugging Face repository is the canonical model hosting location and the model files are large.

Model Highlights

• 8B-class compact deployment footprint
• Southeast Asian multilingual optimization
• Instruction-following and dialogue-oriented usage
• Safetensors model format
• Compatible with Transformers, vLLM, SGLang, and Docker-based local serving workflows

Quick Start

Transformers

from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForCausalLM

model_id = "Agnes-AI/Agnes-SeaLLM-8b"

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_id)
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(model_id)

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=128)
print(tokenizer.decode(outputs[0][inputs["input_ids"].shape[-1]:]))

vLLM

pip install vllm
vllm serve "Agnes-AI/Agnes-SeaLLM-8b"

curl -X POST "http://localhost:8000/v1/chat/completions" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  --data '{
    "model": "Agnes-AI/Agnes-SeaLLM-8b",
    "messages": [
      {
        "role": "user",
        "content": "What is the capital of France?"
      }
    ]
  }'

SGLang

pip install sglang
python3 -m sglang.launch_server \
  --model-path "Agnes-AI/Agnes-SeaLLM-8b" \
  --host 0.0.0.0 \
  --port 30000

Repository Scope

This GitHub repository is intended for:

• Official model announcements and documentation
• Usage examples and integration notes
• Issue tracking for documentation, reproducibility, and integration questions
• Links to Hugging Face-hosted weights and model assets

Large model files remain on Hugging Face.
