What it does
About Soup CLI
Soup CLI is an open-source toolkit for LLM post-training on local hardware, developed and maintained by MePlay, Inc. To lower hardware requirements, it retains the base model in system RAM or NVMe and streams decoder layers into the GPU one at a time during fine-tuning. Soup CLI provides tools to convert configurations from existing training frameworks, rank post-training strategies, run chat-template checks, and expose workflows to AI coding assistants.
