Find the hidden meaning of LLMs

MLX-LM-LENS provides a simple wrapper to inspect hidden states of MLX-based language models.

This package is mainly intended as a research tool, though it can also be used to create real-world models such as the "abliterated" models. Beyond hidden states it lets you inspect attention scores and embedding layer outputs. MLX-LM-LENS is built on top of the MLX-LM framework, so every model supported in MLX-LM works here as well.

Installation

pip install mlx-lm-lens

Quick Start

import mlx.core as mx

from mlx_lm_lens.lens import open_lens

model_lens, tokenizer = open_lens("Goekdeniz-Guelmez/Josiefied-Qwen2.5-0.5B-Instruct-abliterated-v1")
# When loading it will trow a debug print like "Identified components: Embeddings=Embedding, Layers=24, Norm=True, LM Head=Embedding, Tied=True"

tokens = mx.array([[9707]]) # <-- "Hello"

lens_data = model_lens(
    tokens,
    return_dict=True
)

embeds = model_lens.get_embeds(tokens)

print(lens_data) # Results in:
