414503745e* Run the malware gate on the RAG embedding model before it loads Setting the RAG embedding model through PUT /api/settings/embedding-model persisted an arbitrary repo and later handed it straight to SentenceTransformer, which deserializes pickle weights. Unlike the normal model-load paths, this route never ran evaluate_file_security, and force skipped verification entirely, so a repo Hugging Face flags as unsafe (or any repo under force) could be downloaded and loaded in the backend process without a scan. Run the malware/pickle scan at both ends: the settings endpoint now scans before persisting and returns 409 on a flagged repo even under force (force still only skips the is-embedding-model type check for offline or local repos), and the embedder scans again at the load sink so a name that arrives via env or default is covered too. Local paths and unreachable scans fail open inside evaluate_file_security, and the sink never bricks the embedder on a gate error. * [pre-commit.ci] auto fixes from pre-commit.com hooks for more information, see https://pre-commit.ci * Thread the load token into the embedding scan and hard-fail on a block The load-sink scan ran without a token, so evaluate_file_security (which passes token=False when none is given) could not reach a gated or private repo and failed open for exactly the model SentenceTransformer would still load. Resolve the loader's own token (HF_TOKEN env or the cached login) and pass it to the sink scan, and fall back to it in the settings endpoint when the request omits one. The sink previously raised a plain RuntimeError, which the llama-server fallback in encode() and _build_st_backend_or_fallback() swallowed as a routine ST failure, silently switching backends instead of blocking. Raise a distinct UnsafeEmbeddingModelError that both fallback paths re-raise, so a flagged model hard-fails. * [pre-commit.ci] auto fixes from pre-commit.com hooks for more information, see https://pre-commit.ci * Scan sentence-transformers module dirs and scope the embedding pickle gate to the ST backend Extend the RAG embedding malware gate so a poisoned pickle under a SentenceTransformer module dir (for example 0_Transformer/pytorch_model.bin) blocks. Those dirs are read from the repo's modules.json and passed as load roots to evaluate_file_security at both the settings endpoint and the load sink, so such a pickle is treated as root-level there instead of an unreferenced nested shard that was previously allowed. Scope the ST pickle scan to the sentence-transformers backend. On the llama-server backend the embedder loads GGUF files (inert) from the -GGUF companion repo, never the ST repo's pickle, so a custom ST repo with a flagged pickle and a clean GGUF companion is no longer rejected. The existing GGUF availability checks already cover that path. Return 403 for the hard security block instead of 409. The settings UI routes every 409 into the forceable save-anyway flow, but this block cannot be bypassed by force, so it now uses a distinct status the client treats as non-forceable. * [pre-commit.ci] auto fixes from pre-commit.com hooks for more information, see https://pre-commit.ci * Base the embedding pickle scan on the actual backend, not just the resolver _llama_backend_active only consulted the auto resolver, so on a GPU box where auto resolves to sentence-transformers but the process already fell back to the llama-server backend at runtime (a torch or CUDA load/encode failure), it returned False and the settings endpoint hard-blocked a save whose ST pickle is flagged even though the process loads only inert GGUF. Add active_backend_is_llama, which reflects the actual built backend (True when the cached backend is a LlamaServerBackend, including a runtime fallback) and otherwise defers to the resolver as a fresh process would, and delegate _llama_backend_active to it. * [pre-commit.ci] auto fixes from pre-commit.com hooks for more information, see https://pre-commit.ci * Report the cached embedding backend verbatim, not the resolver active_backend_is_llama() fell through to the config resolver whenever a backend was already built but was not llama-server, so a live sentence-transformers backend could report llama=True once the resolver picked llama (GPU heuristic or a runtime config change) and wrongly skip its pickle scan. Once a backend exists, return isinstance(backend, LlamaServerBackend) directly; only defer to the resolver before any backend is built. --------- Co-authored-by: pre-commit-ci[bot] <66853113+pre-commit-ci[bot]@users.noreply.github.com> |

📥 Install
Unsloth can be used in two ways: through Unsloth Studio, the web UI, or through Unsloth Core, the code-based version. Each has different requirements.
Unsloth Studio (web UI)
Unsloth Studio (Beta) works on Windows, Linux, WSL and macOS.
- CPU: Supported for Chat and Data Recipes currently
- NVIDIA: Training works on RTX 30/40/50, Blackwell, DGX Spark, Station and more
- macOS: Training, MLX and GGUF inference are ALL supported.
- AMD: Chat + Data works. Train with Unsloth Core. Studio support is out soon.
- Multi-GPU: Available now, with a major upgrade on the way
macOS, Linux, WSL:
curl -fsSL https://unsloth.ai/install.sh | sh
Use the same command to update.
Windows:
irm https://unsloth.ai/install.ps1 | iex
Use the same command to update.
Launch
unsloth studio -p 8888
For cloud or global access, add -H 0.0.0.0. By default, Unsloth is accessible only locally.
To reach Studio over HTTPS, use unsloth studio --secure. Studio stays bound to localhost and is reached only through a free Cloudflare tunnel, which publishes it at a public https://*.trycloudflare.com URL (it fails closed if the tunnel can't start, so the raw port is never exposed). This makes Studio reachable from the internet, so anyone with the link and API key can use it and run code: keep your API key private (see Remote access below).
Docker
Use our Docker image unsloth/unsloth container. Run:
docker run -d -e JUPYTER_PASSWORD="mypassword" \
-p 8888:8888 -p 8000:8000 -p 2222:22 \
-v $(pwd)/work:/workspace/work \
--gpus all \

📥 Advanced Installation
The below advanced instructions are for Unsloth Studio. For Unsloth Core advanced installation, view our docs.
Developer / Nightly / Experimental installs: macOS, Linux, WSL:
The developer install builds from the main branch, which is the latest (nightly) source.
git clone https://github.com/unslothai/unsloth
cd unsloth
./install.sh --local
unsloth studio -p 8888
To install into an isolated location (its own virtual env, auth/, studio.db, cache and llama.cpp build), set UNSLOTH_STUDIO_HOME and pass it again at launch:
UNSLOTH_STUDIO_HOME="$PWD/.studio" ./install.sh --local
UNSLOTH_STUDIO_HOME="$PWD/.studio" unsloth studio -p 8888
Then to update :
cd unsloth && git pull
./install.sh --local
unsloth studio -p 8888
Developer / Nightly / Experimental installs: Windows PowerShell:
The developer install builds from the main branch, which is the latest (nightly) source.
git clone https://github.com/unslothai/unsloth.git
cd unsloth
Set-ExecutionPolicy -Scope Process -ExecutionPolicy Bypass
.\install.ps1 --local
unsloth studio -p 8888
To install into an isolated location (its own virtual env, auth/, studio.db, cache and llama.cpp build), set UNSLOTH_STUDIO_HOME and pass it again at launch:
$env:UNSLOTH_STUDIO_HOME="$PWD\.studio"; .\install.ps1 --local
$env:UNSLOTH_STUDIO_HOME="$PWD\.studio"; unsloth studio -p 8888
Then to update :
cd unsloth; git pull
.\install.ps1 --local
unsloth studio -p 8888
Remote access: --secure (HTTPS tunnel) vs raw port
By default unsloth studio binds to 127.0.0.1 (this machine only). To reach it from another device, pick one of:
--secure(recommended): serve only through a free Cloudflare HTTPS link. Studio stays bound to localhost and the tunnel provides the public URL; it fails closed (does not start) if the tunnel can't come up, so the raw port is never exposed.
unsloth studio --secure -p 8888
-H 0.0.0.0: bind the raw port on all network interfaces, reachable from anywhere on the network. Only use this on a trusted network.
unsloth studio -H 0.0.0.0 -p 8888
Server-side tools (web search, Python and terminal code execution) run as your user and are on by default. Anyone who can reach the server with the API key can run code on this machine, so keep your API key private and pass --disable-tools when exposing Studio.
Advanced launch options
Installer options can be passed as environment variables. On macOS, Linux and WSL place the variable after the pipe so the shell passes it to sh; on Windows set it with $env: before piping to iex.
Skip PyTorch (GGUF-only mode):
curl -fsSL https://unsloth.ai/install.sh | UNSLOTH_NO_TORCH=1 sh
$env:UNSLOTH_NO_TORCH=1; irm https://unsloth.ai/install.ps1 | iex
Pin the Python version:
curl -fsSL https://unsloth.ai/install.sh | UNSLOTH_PYTHON=3.12 sh
$env:UNSLOTH_PYTHON='3.12'; irm https://unsloth.ai/install.ps1 | iex
Install to a custom location with UNSLOTH_STUDIO_HOME:
curl -fsSL https://unsloth.ai/install.sh | UNSLOTH_STUDIO_HOME=/abs/path sh
$env:UNSLOTH_STUDIO_HOME='C:\path'; irm https://unsloth.ai/install.ps1 | iex
On macOS, the installer defaults to the system certificate store (UV_SYSTEM_CERTS=1) so uv trusts the CAs in your Keychain, needed behind TLS-inspecting proxies (Cisco Umbrella, Zscaler, etc.). Opt out with:
curl -fsSL https://unsloth.ai/install.sh | UV_SYSTEM_CERTS=0 sh
Point the frontend build at a corporate npm mirror/proxy with UNSLOTH_NPM_REGISTRY (for the developer install behind a firewall that blocks registry.npmjs.org):
UNSLOTH_NPM_REGISTRY=https://artifactory.example.com/api/npm/npm/ ./install.sh --local
$env:UNSLOTH_NPM_REGISTRY='https://artifactory.example.com/api/npm/npm/'; .\install.ps1 --local
It is threaded as --registry into the Studio frontend npm/bun installs; the supply-chain locks (7-day min-release-age, exact version pins) stay in force.
Cap Studio's native CPU thread pools on high-core hosts: UNSLOTH_CPU_THREADS=8 unsloth studio -p 8888.
Uninstall
The recommended way to fully remove Unsloth Studio is the matching uninstall script for your OS. It stops any running servers, removes the install dir, the launcher data dir, the desktop shortcut, and any platform-specific entries (macOS .app bundle + Launch Services on Mac; Start Menu, HKCU\Software\Unsloth registry key and user PATH entries on Windows):
- MacOS, WSL, Linux:
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/unslothai/unsloth/main/scripts/uninstall.sh | sh - Windows (PowerShell):
irm https://raw.githubusercontent.com/unslothai/unsloth/main/scripts/uninstall.ps1 | iex
If you only want to drop the install dir and keep the launcher/shortcut for a later reinstall, you can instead run rm -rf ~/.unsloth/studio (Mac/Linux/WSL) or Remove-Item -Recurse -Force "$HOME\.unsloth\studio" (Windows). The model cache at ~/.cache/huggingface is not touched by any of these.
For more info, see our docs.
Deleting model files
You can delete old model files either from the bin icon in model search or by removing the relevant cached model folder from the default Hugging Face cache directory. By default, HF uses:
- MacOS, Linux, WSL:
~/.cache/huggingface/hub/ - Windows:
%USERPROFILE%\.cache\huggingface\hub\
