onnxruntime-ep-mlx

MLX-native ONNX Runtime execution provider for Apple Silicon. It is an out-of-tree plugin EP for ONNX Runtime 1.29 and requires no ONNX Runtime fork.

The wheel bundles MLX 0.32.1 and mlx-c 0.6.0_4. It supports encoder, LLM prefill, and token-at-a-time decode workloads, including quantized matmul, attention, normalization, convolution, shape operations, and compiled shape-specialized If, Loop, and Scan control flow.

See the complete README for operator coverage, performance results, diagnostics, build instructions, and C/C++ integration.

    providers=["MLXExecutionProvider", "CPUExecutionProvider"],
