e164c930ff* fix(studio): change default weight_decay from 0.01 to 0.001
The default weight decay across Studio was 0.01 but should be 0.001.
Updated the default in all backend fallbacks, the Pydantic model, the
frontend config, and every YAML preset/model-default config.
* fix(studio): auto-set learning rate based on training method
Default LR should be 2e-4 for LoRA/QLoRA and 2e-5 for full fine-tuning.
Frontend: track whether the user has manually edited the LR field via a
_learningRateManuallySet flag (same pattern as trainOnCompletions).
When switching training method and the user has not touched the LR,
auto-set it to the appropriate default. Reset the flag on model load.
Backend: change trainer.py start_training default from 5e-5 to 2e-4,
update default.yaml fallback from 5e-5 to 2e-4, and fix
full_finetune.yaml from 0.0002 (2e-4) to 2e-5.
* refactor(studio): centralize weight_decay and learning rate defaults
Create studio/backend/core/training/constants.py as the single source of
truth for DEFAULT_WEIGHT_DECAY (0.001), DEFAULT_LEARNING_RATE (2e-4),
DEFAULT_LEARNING_RATE_FULL (2e-5), and DEFAULT_LEARNING_RATE_STR ("2e-4").
All backend modules (trainer.py, training.py, worker.py, models/training.py)
now import from constants.py instead of hardcoding values.
On the frontend, add LR_DEFAULT_LORA and LR_DEFAULT_FULL to
config/training.ts and use them in the store instead of magic numbers.
A comment cross-references the backend constants file.
* [pre-commit.ci] auto fixes from pre-commit.com hooks
for more information, see https://pre-commit.ci
* Fix model-specific LR override, persist migration, and flag resets
- Preserve model-specific learning rates from YAML configs when the
async autoSelectTrainingMethod callback fires (fixes Qwen2.5-1.5B
getting 2e-4 instead of its configured 1e-5, etc.)
- Bump zustand persist version to 9 with migration so existing users
with weightDecay=0.01 get updated to 0.001
- Clear _learningRateManuallySet in reset() and applyConfigPatch()
for consistency with trainOnCompletions flag behavior
- Add DEFAULT_LEARNING_RATE_FULL_STR to constants.py
* Refine applyConfigPatch to only clear LR flag when patch includes LR
Only reset _learningRateManuallySet when the applied config patch
actually provides a learningRate value. This prevents unrelated config
patches from silently disarming the manual-edit guard, which would
cause a subsequent setTrainingMethod call to overwrite the user's
custom LR.
* Preserve model-specific LR when switching between qlora and lora
Only auto-switch the learning rate when the training category changes
(adapter <-> full fine-tuning). Switching between qlora and lora keeps
the current LR since both methods share the same learning rate range.
This preserves curated per-model defaults (e.g. 1e-5 for
Qwen2.5-1.5B-Instruct) when the user toggles between adapter methods.
* Remove constants.py, use YAML configs as the source of truth
The YAML config files (model-specific + default.yaml) are the intended
config layer for training defaults. The Python backend fallbacks now use
inline values that match the YAML configs, rather than importing from a
separate constants module. This keeps the config architecture simple:
YAML files are the single source of truth, and the inline Python
fallbacks are just safety nets that mirror them.
* fix(studio): preserve model-specific LR when switching training method
Stash YAML-provided learning rate and use it to restore the correct
value when switching between adapter and full fine-tune modes.
- qlora <-> lora no longer overwrites the model's LR
- full -> adapter restores the YAML LR instead of a hardcoded constant
- selecting a model while on full fine-tune uses LR_DEFAULT_FULL
instead of applying the YAML adapter LR

Run and train AI models with a unified local interface.
Features • Quickstart • Notebooks • Documentation • Reddit
Unsloth Studio (Beta) lets you run and train text, audio, embedding, vision models on Windows, Linux and macOS.
⭐ Features
Unsloth provides several key features for both inference and training:
Inference
- Search + download + run models including GGUF, LoRA adapters, safetensors
- Export models: Save or export models to GGUF, 16-bit safetensors and other formats.
- Tool calling: Support for self-healing tool calling and web search
- Code execution: lets LLMs test code in Claude artifacts and sandbox environments
- Auto-tune inference parameters and customize chat templates.
- We work directly with teams behind gpt-oss, Qwen3, Llama 4, Mistral, Gemma 1-3, and Phi-4, where we’ve fixed bugs that improve model accuracy.
- Upload images, audio, PDFs, code, DOCX and more file types to chat with.
Training
- Train and RL 500+ models up to 2x faster with up to 70% less VRAM, with no accuracy loss.
- Custom Triton and mathematical kernels. See some collabs we did with PyTorch and Hugging Face.
- Data Recipes: Auto-create datasets from PDF, CSV, DOCX etc. Edit data in a visual-node workflow.
- Reinforcement Learning (RL): The most efficient RL library, using 80% less VRAM for GRPO, FP8 etc.
