Welcome to the gpt-oss series, OpenAI’s open-weight models designed for powerful reasoning, agentic tasks, and versatile developer use cases.

We’re releasing two flavors of the open models:

• gpt-oss-120b — for production, general purpose, high reasoning use cases that fits into a single H100 GPU (117B parameters with 5.1B active parameters)
• gpt-oss-20b — for lower latency, and local or specialized use cases (21B parameters with 3.6B active parameters)

Both models were trained on our harmony response format and should only be used with the harmony format as it will not work correctly otherwise.

[!NOTE] This model card is dedicated to the smaller gpt-oss-20b model. Check out gpt-oss-120b for the larger model.

Highlights

• Permissive Apache 2.0 license: Build freely without copyleft restrictions or patent risk—ideal for experimentation, customization, and commercial deployment.
• Configurable reasoning effort: Easily adjust the reasoning effort (low, medium, high) based on your specific use case and latency needs.
• Full chain-of-thought: Gain complete access to the model’s reasoning process, facilitating easier debugging and increased trust in outputs. It’s not intended to be shown to end users.
• Fine-tunable: Fully customize models to your specific use case through parameter fine-tuning.
• Agentic capabilities: Use the models’ native capabilities for function calling, web browsing, Python code execution, and Structured Outputs.
• Native MXFP4 quantization: The models are trained with native MXFP4 precision for the MoE layer, making gpt-oss-120b run on a single H100 GPU and the gpt-oss-20b model run within 16GB of memory.

Inference examples

Transformers

You can use gpt-oss-120b and gpt-oss-20b with Transformers. If you use the Transformers chat template, it will automatically apply the harmony response format. If you use model.generate directly, you need to apply the harmony format manually using the chat template or use our openai-harmony package.

To get started, install the necessary dependencies to setup your environment:

pip install -U transformers kernels torch 

Once, setup you can proceed to run the model by running the snippet below:

from transformers import pipeline
import torch
model_id = "EpistemeAI/gpt-oss-20b-unsloth-puzzle-25V1"
pipe = pipeline(
    "text-generation",
    model=model_id,
    torch_dtype="auto",
    device_map="auto",
)
messages = [
    {"role": "user", "content": "Explain quantum mechanics clearly and concisely."},
]
outputs = pipe(
    messages,
    max_new_tokens=256,
)
print(outputs[0]["generated_text"][-1])

Alternatively, you can run the model via Transformers Serve to spin up a OpenAI-compatible webserver:

transformers serve
transformers chat localhost:8000 --model-name-or-path openai/gpt-oss-20b

Learn more about how to use gpt-oss with Transformers.

vLLM

vLLM recommends using uv for Python dependency management. You can use vLLM to spin up an OpenAI-compatible webserver. The following command will automatically download the model and start the server.

uv pip install --pre vllm==0.10.1+gptoss \
    --extra-index-url https://wheels.vllm.ai/gpt-oss/ \
    --extra-index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/nightly/cu128 \
    --index-strategy unsafe-best-match
vllm serve openai/gpt-oss-20b

Learn more about how to use gpt-oss with vLLM.

PyTorch / Triton

To learn about how to use this model with PyTorch and Triton, check out our reference implementations in the gpt-oss repository.

Ollama

If you are trying to run gpt-oss on consumer hardware, you can use Ollama by running the following commands after installing Ollama.

# gpt-oss-20b
ollama pull gpt-oss:20b
ollama run gpt-oss:20b

Learn more about how to use gpt-oss with Ollama.

LM Studio

If you are using LM Studio you can use the following commands to download.

# gpt-oss-20b
lms get openai/gpt-oss-20b

Download the model

You can download the model weights from the Hugging Face Hub directly from Hugging Face CLI:

# gpt-oss-20b
huggingface-cli download openai/gpt-oss-20b --include "original/*" --local-dir gpt-oss-20b/
pip install gpt-oss
python -m gpt_oss.chat model/

Reasoning levels

You can adjust the reasoning level that suits your task across three levels:

• Low: Fast responses for general dialogue.
• Medium: Balanced speed and detail.
• High: Deep and detailed analysis.

The reasoning level can be set in the system prompts, e.g., "Reasoning: high".

Tool use

The gpt-oss models are excellent for:

• Web browsing (using built-in browsing tools)
• Function calling with defined schemas
• Agentic operations like browser tasks

Fine-tuning

Both gpt-oss models can be fine-tuned for a variety of specialized use cases.

This smaller model gpt-oss-20b can be fine-tuned on consumer hardware, whereas the larger gpt-oss-120b can be fine-tuned on a single H100 node.
