Extends the HunyuanVideo-1.5 round-1/2 optimization levers to wan2.2-ti2v-5b, wan2.2-t2v-a14b (dual-expert MoE) and ltx-2, shipping only what beats the incumbent on the measured accuracy-speed frontier (B200, LPIPS(AlexNet) pairwise vs the same uncached compiled stack at identical seed/settings). - Wan2.2-TI2V-5B auto step cache switches FBCache to calibrated MagCache: balanced (0.12, 3, 0.2) measures 1.65x at pairwise LPIPS 0.034 vs the incumbent FBCache 0.08 at 1.49x/0.031, and 1.73x/0.044 vs 1.71x/0.083 at the fast points (FBCache error grows unboundedly past its threshold while MagCache's budget caps it). A 50-step calibrated curve ships; cond/uncond branches agree within 0.0008 so one curve serves both CFG contexts. - Per-expert MagCache plumbing for dual-expert MoEs: the experts split the schedule at the boundary timestep (Wan2.2-A14B: 16 + 34 of 50) and the hook counts each expert's own forwards from 0, so a shared full-schedule curve would be misaligned for both. apply_step_cache / maybe_toggle_step_cache / the loader now thread an expert name; a second expert resolves family::transformer_2 curves and sub-curves scale their configured step count by steps/50. Single-DiT behaviour unchanged. - Wan2.2-A14B keeps FBCache: with per-expert curves, FBCache 0.12 at 2.88x/0.128 dominates balanced MagCache (1.80x/0.145) and FBCache 0.08 sits at 1.28x/0.098; the 16-step high-noise expert starves MagCache's skip budget. No calibrated curve ships, so an explicit magcache request runs uncached with a warning instead of engaging a measured-worse mode. - Wan2.2-A14B TE auto quant resolves dense: TE fp8_dynamic alone costs pairwise LPIPS 0.1195 for a 1.03x once-per-generation encode (146.7 to 142.7 s e2e). Wan2.2-TI2V-5B shares the UMT5 encoder but stays quantized (0.0396 pairwise at a real 1.09x on its much faster DiT). - LTX-2 TE fp8_dynamic family-denied: torchao per-row compute fp8 on the Gemma3-27B encoder black-frames the whole clip (mean luma 137.9 to 0.0, LPIPS 0.78; reproduced compiled and eager), while layerwise fp8 is near-lossless (pairwise 0.0043) at the same shrink, so auto falls through to it and explicit fp8_dynamic requests are refused. - LTX-2 step caching deliberately stays unregistered, now documented on _EXTRA_BLOCK_METADATA: the block returns a joint (video, audio) stream pair and both cache hook families would substitute text embeddings into the audio slot on every skipped step; a dual-stream cache is required, and the distilled checkpoints run below FBCACHE_MIN_STEPS anyway. - Compile parity (emulate_precision_casts) verified family-neutral and kept global: wan5b 1.75x/0.0029 on vs 1.54x/0.0082 off; ltx2 1.308x/0.0013 vs 1.307x/0.0025; a14b 2711 vs 2717 ms/step. Cache-hook compile arming verified to generalize (wan5b fb@0.04 armed 1.216x vs raw 1.048x). Dual-GPU CFG stays HunyuanVideo-1.5-only: LTX-2 runs batch-CFG in one forward and the Wan pipelines consume each branch inline with no guider combine hook. - video_speedmem_bench gains epc_off (compile-parity isolation) and fbcache_explicit / magcache_explicit configs plus expert-aware cache application mirroring the loader. Measured via scripts/video_speedmem_bench.py and the round-3 single-load probes; full data and per-family decision table in outputs/video_families_optim_round3.md (workspace). Tests: 235 passing across the five video inference suite files (9 new: per-expert curve resolution and step scaling, uncalibrated-expert refusal, toggle expert threading, wan5b magcache auto load/toggle, ltx2 deny auto+explicit, a14b TE auto-dense); ruff clean. |

📥 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\
