+# Finetune Xiaomi's MiMo with Axolotl
+
+[MiMo](https://huggingface.co/XiaomiMiMo/MiMo-7B-RL) is a family of models trained from scratch for reasoning tasks, incorporating **Multiple-Token Prediction (MTP)** as an additional training objective for enhanced performance and faster inference. Pre-trained on ~25T tokens with a three-stage data mixture strategy and optimized reasoning pattern density.
+
+This guide shows how to fine-tune it with Axolotl with multi-turn conversations and proper masking.
+
+## Getting started
+
+1. Install Axolotl following the [installation guide](https://docs.axolotl.ai/docs/installation.html).
+
+2. Run the finetuning example:
+
+    ```bash
+    axolotl train examples/mimo/mimo-7b-qlora.yaml
+    ```
+
+This config uses about 17.2 GiB VRAM. Let us know how it goes. Happy finetuning! 🚀
+
+### Tips
+
+- You can run a full finetuning by removing the `adapter: qlora` and `load_in_4bit: true` from the config.
+- Read more on how to load your own dataset at [docs](https://docs.axolotl.ai/docs/dataset_loading.html).
+- The dataset format follows the OpenAI Messages format as seen [here](https://docs.axolotl.ai/docs/dataset-formats/conversation.html#chat_template).
+
+## Optimization Guides
+
+Please check the [Optimizations doc](https://docs.axolotl.ai/docs/optimizations.html).
+
+## Limitations
+
+**Cut Cross Entropy (CCE)**: Currently not supported. We plan to include CCE support for MiMo in the near future.

+# Finetune Katanemo's Plano-Orchestrator with Axolotl
+
+[Plano-Orchestrator](https://huggingface.co/collections/katanemo/plano-orchestrator) is a family of 4B and 30B-A3B routing and orchestration models designed for multi-agent systems. It analyzes user intent and conversation context to make precise routing decisions, excelling at multi-turn context understanding, multi-intent detection, and context-dependent routing.
+
+This guide shows how to fine-tune it with Axolotl with multi-turn conversations and proper masking.
+
+## Getting started
+
+1. Install Axolotl following the [installation guide](https://docs.axolotl.ai/docs/installation.html).
+
+2. Install [Cut Cross Entropy](https://docs.axolotl.ai/docs/custom_integrations.html#cut-cross-entropy) to reduce training VRAM usage.
+
+3. Run the finetuning example:
+
+    ```bash
+    axolotl train examples/plano/plano-4b-qlora.yaml
+    ```
+
+This config uses about 5.1 GiB VRAM. Let us know how it goes. Happy finetuning! 🚀
+
+### Orchestration Prompt
+
+Plano-Orchestrator uses a specific orchestration prompt format for routing/agent decisions. Please check the [official model card](https://huggingface.co/katanemo/Plano-Orchestrator-4B) for proper prompt formatting and the `ORCHESTRATION_PROMPT` template.
+
+### Tips
+
+- To use the larger [Plano-Orchestrator-30B-A3B](https://huggingface.co/katanemo/Plano-Orchestrator-30B-A3B) MoE model, simply change `base_model: katanemo/Plano-Orchestrator-30B-A3B` in the config and enable multi-GPU training if needed.
+- You can run a full finetuning by removing the `adapter: qlora` and `load_in_4bit: true` from the config.
+- Read more on how to load your own dataset at [docs](https://docs.axolotl.ai/docs/dataset_loading.html).
+- The dataset format follows the OpenAI Messages format as seen [here](https://docs.axolotl.ai/docs/dataset-formats/conversation.html#chat_template).
+
+## Optimization Guides
