Instructions to use Qwen/Qwen3-Coder-480B-A35B-Instruct with libraries, inference providers, notebooks, and local apps. Follow these links to get started.

Libraries

How to use Qwen/Qwen3-Coder-480B-A35B-Instruct with Transformers:

# Use a pipeline as a high-level helper
from transformers import pipeline

pipe = pipeline("text-generation", model="Qwen/Qwen3-Coder-480B-A35B-Instruct")
messages = [
    {"role": "user", "content": "Who are you?"},
]
pipe(messages)

# Load model directly
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForCausalLM

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("Qwen/Qwen3-Coder-480B-A35B-Instruct")
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("Qwen/Qwen3-Coder-480B-A35B-Instruct")
messages = [
    {"role": "user", "content": "Who are you?"},
]
inputs = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(
	messages,
	add_generation_prompt=True,
	tokenize=True,
	return_dict=True,
	return_tensors="pt",
).to(model.device)

outputs = model.generate(**inputs, max_new_tokens=40)
print(tokenizer.decode(outputs[0][inputs["input_ids"].shape[-1]:]))

In case the big Qwen3 Coder model suffers from the same unreliability with native function calling as the smaller 30B variant, where it frequently omits the initial tag on function calls, please see my suggestions for a chat template with improved function calling instructions: https://huggingface.co/Qwen/Qwen3-Coder-30B-A3B-Instruct/discussions/12#689390c21ef7c90cb09d0c97
