Arcee Agent is a cutting-edge 7B parameter language model specifically designed for function calling and tool use. Initialized from Qwen2-7B, it rivals the performance of much larger models while maintaining efficiency and speed. This model is particularly suited for developers, researchers, and businesses looking to implement sophisticated AI-driven solutions without the computational overhead of larger language models. Compute for training Arcee-Agent was provided by [CrusoeAI](https://huggingface.co/crusoeai). Arcee-Agent was trained using [Spectrum](https://arxiv.org/abs/2406.06623).

GGUFs are available from [CrusoeAI](https://huggingface.co/crusoeai/Arcee-Agent-GGUF).

### Key Features

1. **Advanced Function Calling:** Arcee Agent excels at interpreting, executing, and chaining function calls. This capability allows it to interact seamlessly with a wide range of external tools, APIs, and services.

2. **Multiple Format Support:** The model is compatible with various tool use formats, including:
   - Glaive FC v2
   - Salesforce
   - Agent-FLAN

Arcee-Agent performs best when using the VLLM OpenAI FC format, but it also excels with prompt-based solutions. Agent-Spark can accommodate any specific use case or infrastructure needs you may have.

4. **Dual-Mode Functionality:**
   - Tool Router: Arcee Agent can serve as intelligent middleware, analyzing requests and efficiently routing them to appropriate tools or larger language models for processing.
   - Standalone Chat Agent: Despite its focus on function calling, Arcee Agent is capable of engaging in human-like conversations and completing a wide range of tasks independently.

5. **Unparalleled Speed and Efficiency:** With its 7B parameter architecture, Arcee Agent delivers rapid response times and efficient processing, making it suitable for real-time applications and resource-constrained environments.

6. **Competitive Performance:** In function calling and tool use tasks, Arcee Agent competes with the capabilities of models many times its size, offering a cost-effective solution for businesses and developers.

## Intended Uses

Arcee Agent is designed for a wide range of applications where efficient function calling and tool use are crucial. Some potential use cases include:

- Developing sophisticated chatbots and virtual assistants with advanced tool integration
- Creating efficient middleware for routing and preprocessing requests to larger language models
- Implementing AI-driven process automation in resource-constrained environments
- Prototyping and testing complex tool-use scenarios without the need for more computationally expensive models
- Building interactive documentation systems that can execute code examples in real-time
- Developing intelligent agents for IoT device management and home automation
- Creating AI-powered research assistants for various scientific disciplines

## Limitations

While Arcee Agent excels in its specialized areas, users should be aware of its limitations:

- The model's general knowledge and capabilities outside of function calling and tool use may be more limited compared to larger, general-purpose language models.
- Performance in tasks unrelated to its core functionalities may not match that of models with more diverse training.
- As with all language models, outputs should be validated and used responsibly, especially in critical applications.
- The model's knowledge cutoff date may limit its awareness of recent events or technological advancements.

## Usage
The model was trained to respect many different formats - but the evals were done with this specific tool template: 
```python
In this environment, you have access to a set of tools you can use to answer the user's question.

You may call them like this:
<function_calls>
  <invoke>
    <tool_name>$TOOL_NAME</tool_name>
    <parameters>
      <$PARAMETER_NAME>$PARAMETER_VALUE</$PARAMETER_NAME>
      ...
    </parameters>
  </invoke>
</function_calls>
