TurboAgent

TurboQuant-powered agentic AI framework for long-context LLMs on consumer hardware.

TurboAgent is a pip-installable Python package that brings Google Research's TurboQuant KV-cache compression to open-source LLMs for local, consumer-hardware agentic AI. It delivers 6x+ memory reduction and up to 8x attention speedup with zero measurable accuracy loss.

Features

• One-line agent creation with 6x+ KV compression -- 32k-1M+ effective context on a single RTX 4090
• Hardware-aware auto-tuning -- detects CUDA/ROCm/Metal/CPU and selects optimal configuration
• Agentic-first primitives -- persistent multi-turn memory, RAG with vector-search, multi-agent swarms
• Multiple backends -- llama.cpp (consumer GPUs), vLLM (server throughput), PyTorch (research)
• Zero-calibration, training-free -- just like the paper guarantees

Quick Start

pip install turboagent-ai[llama]

from turboagent import TurboAgent

agent = TurboAgent(
    "meta-llama/Llama-3.1-70B-Instruct",
    kv_mode="turbo3",
    context=131072,
)

response = agent.run("Analyze my 50k-token research doc and suggest experiments...")
print(response)  # KV usage <4 GB total

Installation

# Core + llama.cpp backend (recommended for consumer GPUs)
pip install turboagent-ai[llama]

# With vLLM for server-style throughput
pip install turboagent-ai[vllm]

# With HuggingFace Transformers for research
pip install turboagent-ai[torch]

# With native TurboQuant C++/CUDA kernels (recommended for best performance)
pip install turboagent-ai[native]

# Development
pip install turboagent-ai[dev]

CLI

# Scaffold a new agent project
turboagent init my_agent

# Detect hardware and show optimal configuration
turboagent info

# Run benchmarks
turboagent benchmark --model-size 70

Multi-Agent Swarms

from turboagent.agents.swarm import TurboSwarm, SwarmAgent

swarm = TurboSwarm(
    "meta-llama/Llama-3.1-70B-Instruct",
    agents=[
        SwarmAgent(name="researcher", role="deep research"),
        SwarmAgent(name="critic", role="critical review"),
        SwarmAgent(name="writer", role="clear writing"),
    ],
)

results = swarm.run("Analyze the latest advances in KV cache compression.")

RAG with TurboVectorStore

from turboagent.agents.rag import TurboVectorStore

store = TurboVectorStore(embedding_dim=768)
store.add_documents(texts=chunks, embeddings=embeddings)
results = store.query(query_embedding, top_k=5)
