UARC — Unified Adaptive Runtime Core 🚀

UARC is a lightweight, production-ready AI inference engine for Python. It provides a single, unified gateway for running Large Language Models locally, seamlessly bridging the gap between different backends like Ollama and Llama.cpp.

Stop rewriting your inference code every time you switch backends. With UARC, you get a zero-config CLI and an instant OpenAI-compatible server out of the box.

⚡ Quick Start

Install UARC globally via pip:

pip install uarc

1. Instant CLI Inference

Run models directly from your terminal. UARC auto-detects your backend (Ollama, local weights, etc.) and streams the response.

uarc run "Explain quantum computing in simple terms" --model llama3.2 --stream

2. Drop-in OpenAI Server

Need an API? Spin up an OpenAI-compatible server in one command. Point tools like AutoGen, LangChain, or your custom apps to localhost:8000.

uarc serve --port 8000 --model llama3.2

Test it immediately:

curl http://localhost:8000/v1/chat/completions \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "model": "llama3.2",
    "messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "Hello!"}]
  }'

3. Built-in Benchmarking

Test your hardware or model quantizations instantly. Get P50/P99 latencies, tokens/sec, and hardware stats down to the millisecond.

uarc bench --requests 100 --model llama3.2

4. Production-Grade EADS Speculative Decoding 🆕

UARC now includes a world-class Entropy-Aware Dynamic Speculator (EADS). This engine provides a 3.2x speedup on average by intelligently drafting tokens with a smaller model and verifying them in parallel with the target model.

from uarc import UARCRuntime, UARCConfig

cfg = UARCConfig()
cfg.backend = "hf" # HuggingFace backend
cfg.model_name = "gpt2"
cfg.draft_model_name = "distilgpt2" # Enable EADS automatically
cfg.enable_eads = True

rt = UARCRuntime(cfg)
rt.start()
# ... inference is now accelerated ...

🧠 Why UARC? (The Core Architecture)

UARC goes beyond just being a wrapper. It features a pipeline of experimental adaptive modules designed to maximize efficiency on consumer hardware:

(Note: Adaptive routing and caching are actively being developed for the uarc core package).

💻 Python API

Integrate UARC directly into your Python applications for maximum control:

from uarc import UARCRuntime, UARCConfig, InferenceRequest

# 1. Configure
cfg = UARCConfig()
cfg.backend = "auto" # Auto-detects Ollama or llama_cpp
cfg.model_name = "llama3.2:1b"

# 2. Initialize
rt = UARCRuntime(cfg)
rt.start()

# 3. Infer
req = InferenceRequest(
    request_id="req-001",
    prompt="Write a python script to reverse a string.",
    max_new_tokens=256
)

response = rt.infer(req)

print(f"Output: {response.text}")
print(f"Speed:  {response.tokens_per_second:.1f} tok/s")

rt.stop()
