MLX-LM LoRA / QLoRA

An explicitly started local fine-tuning command using GoldCap-prepared data on compatible Apple silicon systems.

Curious Obmil studies an observatory instrument beside a smaller happy GoldCap with one main cap, two small caps, and living gold veins
Curious checks the signal. GoldCap keeps the local path close to the user.
DecaCap interface
Local command launched by the companion
Published evidence
GoldCap can prepare canonical data and the companion can launch a configured MLX command. Successful training depends on the local installation, model, memory, data, and command profile.
Exact-model probe
Not published Account-, model-, region-, quota-, runtime-, and hardware-specific verification still requires a real user-owned key or device.

REQUIREMENTS
  • Apple silicon Mac
  • Compatible Python environment
  • mlx-lm installed locally
  • A supported base model
  • Enough unified memory and storage
LIMITATIONS
  • DecaCap does not guarantee model/toolkit compatibility
  • A finished adapter is not automatically activated
  • Training quality is not inferred from process completion
IMPLEMENTATION TEST TARGETS
  • Explicit start
  • Observable process status
  • Pause/resume/stop where supported
  • Adapter path reporting
  • Runtime retest boundary
WHAT THIS DOES NOT PROVE
  • Access to a particular model on a user account
  • Quality, speed, pricing, quota, or safety behavior
  • Hardware fit or training-toolkit compatibility
