Parable-Qwen3-8B-Claude-Fable-5

Qwen3-8B trained on real Claude Fable 5 and GPT-5.5 agent traces: 67% lower held-out test loss than its base, and the strongest strictly-graded qualitative score in the Parable series: 23 of 34 fully correct.

Parable-Qwen3-8B is a Qwen/Qwen3-8B fine-tune trained on real multi-step agent sessions: planning, tool use, and <think> reasoning captured from actual Claude Fable 5 and GPT-5.5 agent work, not synthetic Q&A. Highest strict-qual release in the Parable series, alongside the Granite 8B line.

Usage

from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer

model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
    "AnkitAI/Parable-Qwen3-8B-Claude-Fable-5",
    torch_dtype="auto", device_map="auto")
tok = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("AnkitAI/Parable-Qwen3-8B-Claude-Fable-5")

msgs = [{"role": "user", "content": "Write a Python function that retries an HTTP request with exponential backoff."}]
ids = tok.apply_chat_template(msgs, add_generation_prompt=True, return_tensors="pt").to(model.device)
out = model.generate(ids, max_new_tokens=3000, temperature=0.7, top_p=0.95, do_sample=True)
text = tok.decode(out[0][ids.shape[1]:], skip_special_tokens=True)
answer = text.split("</think>")[-1].strip()  # response opens with a <think> block
print(answer)

GGUF quants for llama.cpp / Ollama / LM Studio: Parable-Qwen3-8B-Claude-Fable-5-GGUF.

Sampling: temperature 0.7, top_p 0.95, generous max_new_tokens (at least 2500).

Training data

Glint-Research/Fable-5-traces: 4.4k real Claude Fable 5 coding-agent session traces with <think> reasoning and tool calls (AGPL-3.0)
Roman1111111/gpt5.5-terminal: terminal-agent task solutions (MIT)

Every example passed a quality gate (schema validation, secrets scrub, length filtering) before training. QLoRA fine-tune (NF4, sequence length 1024) trained on a single 16 GB GPU, quantized with llama.cpp.

Evaluation

Held-out test split, identical evaluation code and context length for base and fine-tune:

Metric	Base Qwen3-8B	Parable	Δ
Test loss	2.162	0.712	−67%

Qualitative review (34 coding/terminal/debugging prompts, strictly graded by mentally executing every answer): 23/34 fully correct, 30/34 correct or partially correct — the highest fully-correct score in the series. We publish these numbers because strict qualitative grading is rare in this niche; judge accordingly.

For reference, the strongest published fine-tune on this data family (a 9B) reports 0.71 validation loss. Cross-repo numbers are indicative only: splits, tokenizers, and context lengths differ (ours is measured at 1,024 tokens).

Limitations

Trained for agent work: on ops-style prompts it sometimes (2/34 in our eval) responds with structured tool-call JSON rather than prose. Useful inside agent harnesses; in plain chat, re-prompt or lower the temperature.
Fine-tuned at 1,024-token sequences; the base model's native 128K-token context remains fully available, so long sessions work, with the fine-tuned behavior strongest in the opening turns.

As a fine-tune it inherits Qwen3-8B's base behaviors and knowledge cutoff. As with any local model, treat generated commands and code as drafts to review.

Provenance & licensing

Model weights: Apache-2.0 (inherited from Qwen3-8B). Training data licenses: Fable-5-traces AGPL-3.0, gpt5.5-terminal MIT. Because those traces originate from third-party assistants, the providers' terms may apply to downstream training and distillation. If you plan to build on this model commercially, confirm your use aligns with those terms.
