feat/tools-in-chat-template
Tool tokens (and related fine-tuning) are a major asset of this model. Being able to add available tools, tool invocations and tool results as messages in a chat template will enhance the ease of use of tools via the transformers library.
Tested this updated chat template using the following code. Please excuse the length of the below. It includes testing with hardcoded prompts, followed by a chat loop to allow for testing in multi-turn conversations.

Note that I have tested the template using the chat loop with multi-turn conversations, using both tools multiple times, with successful use of these tools by the model. The output of this multi-turn chat was:

@lcahill
Hey I am trying to figure out the prompt structure of the model and I haven't found any information. It seems like you have a good grip on this. If you can provide some resources on that it would be much appreciated.
Here are some additional questions:
How do you know that LlamaTokenizerFast is compatible with mistralai/Mistral-7B-Instruct-v0.3?
How do you know that the below message type is supported:
{
'role': 'available_tools',
'content': available_tools_json,
},
@lcahill
How did you manage to load tokenizer?
LlamaTokenizerFast.from_pretrained("mistralai/Mistral-7B-Instruct-v0.3") gives an exception:
Exception: data did not match any variant of untagged enum PyPreTokenizerTypeWrapper at line 6952 column 3
Hi @Alordan ,
Strange, I am not getting the same exception. Running on Windows 11 with transformers version 4.41.1. Maybe you need to update your transformers version?

Hi
@SebastianS
, I was able to figure out the chat template by using mistral's mistral_inference
and mistral_common
python libraries. They have some instructions in the readme of this model.
How do you know that LlamaTokenizerFast is compatible with mistralai/Mistral-7B-Instruct-v0.3?
I got this by loading the tokenizer, then checking its type. The AutoTokenizer will figure out the correct tokenizer based on the config.
import transformers
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, LlamaTokenizerFast
print(f"{transformers.__version__=}")
model_id = 'mistralai/Mistral-7B-Instruct-v0.3'
# Load both tokenizers and ensure they are the same type
tokenizer_from_pretrained = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_id)
print(f"{type(tokenizer_from_pretrained)=}")
tokenizer_from_llama_tokenizer_fast = LlamaTokenizerFast.from_pretrained(model_id)
print(f"{type(tokenizer_from_llama_tokenizer_fast)=}")
assert type(tokenizer_from_pretrained) == type(tokenizer_from_llama_tokenizer_fast)
This outputs:
transformers.__version__='4.41.1'
type(tokenizer_from_pretrained)=<class 'transformers.models.llama.tokenization_llama_fast.LlamaTokenizerFast'>
type(tokenizer_from_llama_tokenizer_fast)=<class 'transformers.models.llama.tokenization_llama_fast.LlamaTokenizerFast'>
How do you know that the below message type is supported:
{ 'role': 'available_tools', 'content': available_tools_json, },
This is only compatible after changing the chat template, as I am attempting to do via this PR. Note you can also change this at runtime by running something like the below.
# apply custom chat template to model as an example.

Note the model is still getting this wrong. It could be inherent limitations of a 7b model, or it could be due to my ordering of the messages. I am putting the available tools before the last user message because this comment mentioned that is how the mistral libraries do it.
https://huggingface.co/mistralai/Mistral-7B-Instruct-v0.3/discussions/17#66519aade6ddaa4f89902342
Regardless of how the messages need to be ordered, I think adding tools to the chat template makes them easier to implement.
There's a chance I may have issues with my implementation of the chat_template so I am keen for people to try it out and provide feedback. I have noticed the model can be quite sensitive to layout of tokens so even things like missing/additional spaces in the chat template can impact model output quality.
