+# gen_inference_defaults
+
+This tool fetches per-model-family inference parameter defaults from [unsloth's inference_defaults.json](https://github.com/unslothai/unsloth/blob/main/studio/backend/assets/configs/inference_defaults.json), validates the data, remaps field names to LocalAI conventions, and writes `core/config/inference_defaults.json`.
+
+## What it does
+
+1. Fetches the latest `inference_defaults.json` from unsloth's repo
+2. Validates that every entry has required fields (`temperature`, `top_p`, `top_k`)
+3. Validates that every pattern references an existing family
+4. Warns if pattern ordering would cause shorter prefixes to shadow longer ones
+5. Remaps `repetition_penalty` → `repeat_penalty` (LocalAI naming)
+6. Filters to allowed fields only: `temperature`, `top_p`, `top_k`, `min_p`, `repeat_penalty`, `presence_penalty`
+7. Writes the validated JSON to `core/config/inference_defaults.json`
+
+## Usage
+
+```bash
+# Only regenerate if the file is missing (runs during make build)
+make generate
+
+# Force re-fetch from unsloth
+make generate-force
+
+# Or directly via go generate
+go generate ./core/config/...
+```
+
+## Automation
+
+The GitHub Actions workflow `.github/workflows/bump-inference-defaults.yml` runs `make generate-force` daily and opens a PR if the upstream data changed.
