Functionary

Functionary is a language model that can interpret and execute functions/plugins.

The model determines when to execute functions, whether in parallel or serially, and can understand their outputs. It only triggers functions as needed. Function definitions are given as JSON Schema Objects, similar to OpenAI GPT function calls.

The first functionary models with code-interpreter ability (by passing in `{type: "code_interpreter"}` in tools)!

Getting Started

Functionary can be deployed using either our vLLM or SGLang servers. Choose either one depending on your preferences.

Installation

vLLM shell pip install -e .[vllm] SGLang shell pip install -e .[sglang] --find-links https://flashinfer.ai/whl/cu124/torch2.5/flashinfer-python

Running the server

Small Model

vLLM shell python3 server_vllm.py --model "meetkai/functionary-v4r-small-preview" --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8000 --max-model-len 8192 SGLang shell python3 server_sglang.py --model-path "meetkai/functionary-v4r-small-preview" --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8000 --context-length 8192

Medium Model

Our medium models require: 4xA6000 or 2xA100 80GB to run, need to use: tensor-parallel-size or tp (SGLang)

vLLM ```shell

vllm requires to run this first: https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm/issues/6152

export VLLMWORKERMULTIPROC_METHOD=spawn

python servervllm.py --model "meetkai/functionary-medium-v3.1" --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8000 --max-model-len 8192 --tensor-parallel-size 2 **SGLang** shell python serversglang.py --model-path "meetkai/functionary-medium-v3.1" --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8000 --context-length 8192 --tp 2 ```

LoRA Support (Currently Only in vLLM)

Similar to LoRA in vLLM, our server supports serving LoRA adapters both at startup and dynamically.

To serve a LoRA adapter at startup, run the server with the --lora-modules argument:

shell python server_vllm.py --model {BASE_MODEL} --enable-lora --lora-modules {name}={path} {name}={path} --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8000

To serve a LoRA adapter dynamically, use the /v1/load_lora_adapter endpoint: ```shell python servervllm.py --model {BASEMODEL} --enable-lora --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8000

Load a LoRA adapter dynamically

curl -X POST http://localhost:8000/v1/loadloraadapter \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{ "loraname": "mylora", "lorapath": "/path/to/mylora_adapter" }'

Example chat request to lora adapter

curl -X POST http://localhost:8000/v1/chat/completions \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{ "model": "mylora", "messages": [...], "tools": [...], "toolchoice": "auto" }'

Unload a LoRA adapter dynamically

curl -X POST http://localhost:8000/v1/unloadloraadapter \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{ "loraname": "mylora" }' ```

Text-Generation-Inference (TGI)

We also provide a service that performs inference on Functionary models using Text-Generation-Inference (TGI). Follow these steps to get started:

1. Install Docker following their installation instructions.

2. Install the Docker SDK for Python

shell pip install docker

1. Start up the Functionary TGI server

At start-up, the Functionary TGI server tries to connect to an existing TGI endpoint. In this case, you can run the following:

shell python3 server_tgi.py --model <REMOTE_MODEL_ID_OR_LOCAL_MODEL_PATH> --endpoint <TGI_SERVICE_ENDPOINT>

If the TGI endpoint does not exist, the Functionary TGI server will start a new TGI endpoint container with the address provided in the endpoint CLI argument via the installed Docker Python SDK. Run the following commands for remote and local models respectively:

shell python3 server_tgi.py --model <REMOTE_MODEL_ID> --remote_model_save_folder <PATH_TO_SAVE_AND_CACHE_REMOTE_MODEL> --endpoint <TGI_SERVICE_ENDPOINT>

shell python3 server_tgi.py --model <LOCAL_MODEL_PATH> --endpoint <TGI_SERVICE_ENDPOINT>

1. Make either OpenAI-compatible or raw HTTP requests to the Functionary TGI server.

Docker

If you're having trouble with dependencies, and you have nvidia-container-toolkit, you can start your environment like this:

```shell cd

vLLM

sudo docker build -t functionary-vllm -f dockerfiles/Dockerfile.vllm . sudo docker run --runtime nvidia --gpus all -p 8000:8000 functionary-vllm

SGLang

sudo docker build -t functionary-sglang -f dockerfiles/Dockerfile.sgl . sudo docker run --runtime nvidia --gpus all -p 8000:8000 functionary-sglang ```

OpenAI Compatible Usage

```python from openai import OpenAI

client = OpenAI(baseurl="http://localhost:8000/v1", apikey="functionary")

client.chat.completions.create( model="meetkai/functionary-v4r-small-preview", messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "What is the weather for Istanbul?"} ], tools=[{ "type": "function", "function": { "name": "getcurrentweather", "description": "Get the current weather", "parameters": { "type": "object", "properties": { "location": { "type": "string", "description": "The city and state, e.g. San Francisco, CA" } }, "required": ["location"] } } }], tool_choice="auto" ) ```

Llama.cpp Inference

Llama.cpp Inference using Huggingface Tokenizer

Example for inference using LLama-cpp-python can be found in: llamacppinference.py.

Integration into Llama-cpp

Besides, functionary was also integrated into LLama-cpp-python, however the integration might not be quickly updated, so if there is something wrong or weird in the result, please use: llamacppinference.py instead. Currently, v2.5 hasn't been integrated, so if you are using functionary-small-v2.5-GGUF, please use: llamacppinference.py

Make sure that the latest version of llama-cpp-python is successully installed in your system. Functionary v2 is fully integrated into llama-cpp-python. You can perform inference using Functionary's GGUF models either via normal chat completion or through llama-cpp-python's OpenAI-compatible server which behaves similarly to ours.

The following is the sample code using normal chat completion:

```python from llamacpp import Llama from llamacpp.llama_tokenizer import LlamaHFTokenizer

We should use HF AutoTokenizer instead of llama.cpp's tokenizer because we found that Llama.cpp's tokenizer doesn't give the same result as that from Huggingface. The reason might be in the training, we added new tokens to the tokenizer and Llama.cpp doesn't handle this successfully

llm = Llama.frompretrained( repoid="meetkai/functionary-small-v2.4-GGUF", filename="functionary-small-v2.4.Q40.gguf", chatformat="functionary-v2", tokenizer=LlamaHFTokenizer.frompretrained("meetkai/functionary-small-v2.4-GGUF"), ngpu_layers=-1 )

messages = [ {"role": "user", "content": "what's the weather like in Hanoi?"} ] tools = [ # For functionary-7b-v2 we use "tools"; for functionary-7b-v1.4 we use "functions" = [{"name": "getcurrentweather", "description":..., "parameters": ....}] { "type": "function", "function": { "name": "getcurrentweather", "description": "Get the current weather", "parameters": { "type": "object", "properties": { "location": { "type": "string", "description": "The city and state, e.g., San Francisco, CA" } }, "required": ["location"] } } } ]

result = llm.createchatcompletion( messages = messages, tools=tools, tool_choice="auto", )

print(result["choices"][0]["message"]) The output would be: python {'role': 'assistant', 'content': None, 'toolcalls': [{'type': 'function', 'function': {'name': 'getcurrent_weather', 'arguments': '{\n "location": "Hanoi"\n}'}}]} ```

For more details, please refer to the Function Calling section in llama-cpp-python. To use our Functionary GGUF models using llama-cpp-python's OpenAI-compatible server, please refer to here for more details and documentation.

Note: - For Functionary in llama-cpp-python, the default system messages are added automatically during the API call. Therefore, there is no need to provide the default system messages in messages. - Streaming feature for Functionary models in both the normal chat completion and in llama-cpp-python's OpenAI-compatible server is officially supported from v0.2.70 onwards.

Call Real Python Function

To call the real python function, get the result and extract the result to respond, you can use chatlab. The following example uses chatlab==0.16.0:

Please note that Chatlab currently doesn't support Parallel Function calls. This sample code is compatible only with Functionary Version 1.4 and may not work correctly with Functionary Version 2.0. ```python from chatlab import Conversation import openai import os openai.apikey = "functionary" # We just need to set this something other than None os.environ['OPENAIAPIKEY'] = "functionary" # chatlab requires us to set this too openai.apibase = "http://localhost:8000/v1"

now provide the function with description

def getcarprice(carname: str): """this function is used to get the price of the car given the name :param carname: name of the car to get the price """ carprice = { "tang": {"price": "$20000"}, "song": {"price": "$25000"} } for key in carprice: if key in carname.lower(): return {"price": carprice[key]} return {"price": "unknown"}

chat = Conversation(model="meetkai/functionary-7b-v2") chat.register(getcarprice) # register this function chat.submit("what is the price of the car named Tang?") # submit user prompt

print the flow

for message in chat.messages: role = message["role"].upper() if "functioncall" in message: funcname = message["functioncall"]["name"] funcparam = message["functioncall"]["arguments"] print(f"{role}: call function: {funcname}, arguments:{func_param}") else: content = message["content"] print(f"{role}: {content}") ```

The output will look like this: USER: what is the price of the car named Tang? ASSISTANT: call function: get_car_price, arguments:{ "car_name": "Tang" } FUNCTION: {'price': {'price': '$20000'}} ASSISTANT: The price of the car named Tang is $20,000.

Serverless Deployment using Modal.com

Serverless deployment of Functionary models is supported via the modalservervllm.py script. After signing up and installing Modal, follow these steps to deploy our vLLM server on Modal:

1. Create dev environment

shell Python modal environment create dev If you have a dev environment created already, there is no need to create another one. Just configure to it in the next step.

1. Configure dev environment

shell Python modal config set-environment dev

1. Serve Functionary Model

shell Python modal serve modal_server_vllm

1. Deploy Runner

shell Python modal deploy modal_server_vllm

Use Cases

Here are a few examples of how you can use this function calling system:

Travel and Hospitality - Trip Planning

The function plan_trip(destination: string, duration: int, interests: list) can take user input such as "I want to plan a 7-day trip to Paris with a focus on art and culture" and generate an itinerary accordingly.

Details (click to expand)

```python client.chat.completions.create(( model="meetkai/functionary-7b-v2", messages=[ {"role": "user", "content": 'I want to plan a 7-day trip to Paris with a focus on art and culture'}, ], tools=[ { "type": "function", "function": { "name": "plan_trip", "description": "Plan a trip based on user's interests", "parameters": { "type": "object", "properties": { "destination": { "type": "string", "description": "The destination of the trip", }, "duration": { "type": "integer", "description": "The duration of the trip in days", }, "interests": { "type": "array", "items": {"type": "string"}, "description": "The interests based on which the trip will be planned", }, }, "required": ["destination", "duration", "interests"], } } } ] ) ``` Response will have: ```json {"role": "assistant", "content": null, "tool_calls": [{"type": "function", "function": {"name": "plan_trip", "arguments": '{\n "destination": "Paris",\n "duration": 7,\n "interests": ["art", "culture"]\n}'}}]} ``` Then you need to call ```plan_trip``` function with provided arguments. If you would like a commentary from the model, then you'll call the model again with the response from the function, the model will write necessary commentary.

Real Estate - Property Valuation

A function like estimatepropertyvalue(property_details: dict) could allow users to input details about a property (such as location, size, number of rooms, etc.) and receive an estimated market value.

Details (click to expand)

```python client.chat.completions.create( model="meetkai/functionary-7b-v2", messages=[ { "role": "user", "content": 'What is the estimated value of a 3-bedroom house in San Francisco with 2000 sq ft area?' }, { "role": "assistant", "content": None, "tool_calls": [ { "type": "function", "function": { "name": "estimate_property_value", "arguments": '{\n "property_details": {"location": "San Francisco", "size": 2000, "rooms": 3}\n}' } } ] } ], tools=[ { "type": "function", "function": { "name": "estimate_property_value", "description": "Estimate the market value of a property", "parameters": { "type": "object", "properties": { "property_details": { "type": "object", "properties": { "location": { "type": "string", "description": "The location of the property" }, "size": { "type": "integer", "description": "The size of the property in square feet" }, "rooms": { "type": "integer", "description": "The number of rooms in the property" } }, "required": ["location", "size", "rooms"] } }, "required": ["property_details"] } } } ], tool_choice="auto" ) ``` Response will have: ```json {"role": "assistant", "content": null, "tool_calls": [{"type": "function", "function": {"name": "plan_trip", "arguments": '{\n "destination": "Paris",\n "duration": 7,\n "interests": ["art", "culture"]\n}'}}]} ``` Then you need to call ```plan_trip``` function with provided arguments. If you would like a commentary from the model, then you'll call the model again with the response from the function, the model will write necessary commentary.

Telecommunications - Customer Support

A function parse_customer_complaint(complaint: {issue: string, frequency: string, duration: string}) could help in extracting structured information from a complex, narrative customer complaint, identifying the core issue and potential solutions. The complaint object could include properties such as issue (the main problem), frequency (how often the issue occurs), and duration (how long the issue has been occurring).

Details (click to expand)

```python client.chat.completions.create( model="meetkai/functionary-7b-v2", messages=[ {"role": "user", "content": 'My internet has been disconnecting frequently for the past week'}, ], tools=[ { "type": "function", "function": { "name": "parse_customer_complaint", "description": "Parse a customer complaint and identify the core issue", "parameters": { "type": "object", "properties": { "complaint": { "type": "object", "properties": { "issue": { "type": "string", "description": "The main problem", }, "frequency": { "type": "string", "description": "How often the issue occurs", }, "duration": { "type": "string", "description": "How long the issue has been occurring", }, }, "required": ["issue", "frequency", "duration"], }, }, "required": ["complaint"], } } } ], tool_choice="auto" ) ``` Response will have: ```json {"role": "assistant", "content": null, "tool_calls": [{"type": "function", "function": {"name": "parse_customer_complaint", "arguments": '{\n "complaint": {"issue": "internet disconnecting", "frequency": "frequently", "duration": "past week"}\n}'}}]} ``` Then you need to call parse_customer_complaint function with provided arguments. If you would like a commentary from the model, then you'll call the model again with the response from the function, the model will write necessary commentary.

How it Works?

We convert function definitions to a similar text to TypeScript definitions. Then we inject these definitions as system prompts. After that, we inject the default system prompt. Then we start the conversation messages.

The prompt example can be found here: V1 (v1.4), V2 (v2, v2.1, v2.2, v2.4) and V2.llama3 (v2.5)

We don't change the logit probabilities to conform to a certain schema, but the model itself knows how to conform. This allows us to use existing tools and caching systems with ease.

Evaluation

Berkeley Function-Calling Leaderboard

We are ranked 2nd in the Berkeley Function-Calling Leaderboard (Last Updated: 2024-08-11) | Model Name | Function Calling Accuracy (Name & Arguments) | | :-------------------| ---------------------------: | | meetkai/functionary-medium-v3.1 | 88.88%| | GPT-4-1106-Preview (Prompt) | 88.53%| | meetkai/functionary-small-v3.2 | 82.82%| | meetkai/functionary-small-v3.1 | 82.53%| | FireFunction-v2 (FC) | 78.82.47% |

ToolSandbox

We also evaluate our models on ToolSandbox, this benchmark is much more difficult than Berkeley Function-Calling Leaderboard. This benchmark includes stateful tool execution, implicit state dependencies between tools, a built-in user simulator supporting on-policy conversational evaluation and a dynamic evaluation strategy for intermediate and final milestones over an arbitrary trajectory. The authors of this benchmark showed that there is a huge performance gap between open source models and proprietary models.

From our evaluation result, our models are comparable to best proprietary models and much better than other open source models.
