We introduce Kimi-Dev-72B, our new open-source coding LLM for software engineering tasks. Kimi-Dev-72B achieves a new state-of-the-art on SWE-bench Verified among open-source models.

• Kimi-Dev-72B achieves 60.4% performance on SWE-bench Verified. It surpasses the runner-up, setting a new state-of-the-art result among open-source models.

• Kimi-Dev-72B is optimized via large-scale reinforcement learning. It autonomously patches real repositories in Docker and gains rewards only when the entire test suite passes. This ensures correct and robust solutions, aligning with real-world development standards.

• Kimi-Dev-72B is available for download and deployment on Hugging Face and GitHub. We welcome developers and researchers to explore its capabilities and contribute to development.

Quick Start

from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer

model_name = "moonshotai/Kimi-Dev-72B"

model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
    model_name,
    torch_dtype="auto",
    device_map="auto"
)
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_name)

prompt = "Give me a short introduction to large language model."
messages = [
    {"role": "system", "content": "You are a helpful assistant."},
    {"role": "user", "content": prompt}
]
text = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(
    messages,
    tokenize=False,
    add_generation_prompt=True
)
model_inputs = tokenizer([text], return_tensors="pt").to(model.device)

generated_ids = model.generate(
    **model_inputs,
    max_new_tokens=512
)
generated_ids = [
    output_ids[len(input_ids):] for input_ids, output_ids in zip(model_inputs.input_ids, generated_ids)
]

response = tokenizer.batch_decode(generated_ids, skip_special_tokens=True)[0]
