-## Adding a new integration
-
-Plugins can be used to customize the behavior of the training pipeline through [hooks](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hooking). See [`axolotl.integrations.BasePlugin`](https://github.com/axolotl-ai-cloud/axolotl/blob/main/src/axolotl/integrations/base.py) for the possible hooks.
-
-To add a new integration, please follow these steps:
-
-1. Create a new folder in the `src/axolotl/integrations` directory.
-2. Add any relevant files (`LICENSE`, `README.md`, `ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS.md`, etc.) to the new folder.
-3. Add `__init__.py` and `args.py` files to the new folder.
-  - `__init__.py` should import the integration and hook into the appropriate functions.
-  - `args.py` should define the arguments for the integration.
-4. (If applicable) Add CPU tests under `tests/integrations` or GPU tests under `tests/e2e/integrations`.

-**Q: Received mismatch error on merge adapters / loading adapters between torch.Size of checkpoint and model.**
-
-> A: This is likely due to vocab size mismatch. By default, Axolotl expands the model's embeddings if the tokenizer has more tokens than the model. Please use the `axolotl merge-lora` command to merge the adapters instead of using your own scripts.
-
-> On the other hand, if the model has more tokens than the tokenizer, Axolotl does not shrink the model's embeddings unless `shrink_embeddings: true` is set in the config.

-**Q: How to call Axolotl via custom python scripts?**
