Why AutoGGUF?

• Fast: Saves time on manual configuration
• Simple: Clean UI, no terminal needed
• Powerful: Handles models up to infinite size, only limited by your RAM
• Resource-aware: Optimized memory management and efficient UI library

Quick Start

Cross-platform

1. git clone https://github.com/leafspark/AutoGGUF
2. cd AutoGGUF
3. Install dependencies:

   pip install -r requirements.txt
   

4. Run the application:

   python src/main.py
   

   or use the run.bat script.

macOS and Ubuntu builds are provided with GitHub Actions, you may download the binaries in the releases section.

Windows (for the impatient)

Standard builds:

1. Download the latest release
2. Extract all files to a folder
3. Run AutoGGUF-x64.exe
4. Any necessary folders will be automatically created

Setup builds:

1. Download setup variant of latest release
2. Extract all files to a folder
3. Run the setup program
4. The .GGUF extension will be registered with the program automatically
5. Run the program from the Start Menu or desktop shortcuts

After launching the program, you may access its local server at port 7001 (set AUTOGGUF_SERVER to "enabled" first)

Verifying Releases

Linux/macOS:

gpg --import AutoGGUF-v1.5.0-prerel.asc
gpg --verify AutoGGUF-v1.9.1-Windows-avx2.zip.sig AutoGGUF-v1.9.1-Windows-avx2.zip
sha256sum -c AutoGGUF-v1.9.1.sha256

Windows (PowerShell):

# Import the public key
gpg --import AutoGGUF-v1.5.0-prerel.asc

# Verify the signature
gpg --verify AutoGGUF-v1.9.1-Windows-avx2.zip.sig AutoGGUF-v1.9.1-Windows-avx2.zip

# Check SHA256
$fileHash = (Get-FileHash -Algorithm SHA256 AutoGGUF-v1.9.1-Windows-avx2.zip).Hash.ToLower()
$storedHash = (Get-Content AutoGGUF-v1.9.1.sha256 | Select-String AutoGGUF-v1.9.1-Windows-avx2.zip).Line.Split()[0]
if ($fileHash -eq $storedHash) { "SHA256 Match" } else { "SHA256 Mismatch" }

Release keys are identical to ones used for commiting.

Building

Cross-platform

pip install -U pyinstaller
./build.sh RELEASE | DEV
cd build/<type>/dist/
./AutoGGUF

Windows

pip install -U pyinstaller
build RELEASE | DEV

Find the executable in build/<type>/dist/AutoGGUF-x64.exe.

You can also use Nuitka, which may result in a slower build but a faster output executable:

build_optimized RELEASE | DEV

Localizations

View the list of supported languages at AutoGGUF/wiki/Installation#configuration (LLM translated, except for English).

More languages will be updated as soon as possible!

To use a specific language, set the AUTOGGUF_LANGUAGE environment variable to one of the listed language codes (note: some languages may not be fully supported yet, those will fall back to English).

Issues

• Some inconsistent logging
• Missing translations

Planned Features

• Time estimation for quantization
• Quantization file size estimate
• Perplexity testing
• bitsandbytes

Due to my limited availability and a lack of time, I won't be actively developing new features for this project as much. While I'll continue to publish builds from time to time, I strongly recommend running from source if you want to stay up to date with the latest changes. I'm still committed to keeping dependencies updated weekly and making small maintenance fixes to ensure everything runs smoothly. If you run into any problems or notice issues, please don't hesitate to let me know - I appreciate your feedback and will do my best to address them.

Support

• SSL module cannot be found error: Install OpenSSL or run from source using python src/main.py with the run.bat script (pip install requests)
• Check out the Wiki for advanced usage and configuration
