Jinja issue with double context size
#11
by Linukso1D - opened
This jinja file will be helpfull for those who dare launch muse on llama.cpp with claude code.
The problem this chat template solves - double context size with the initial prompt, in my case it reduces "twice" from 89k tokens to 48k tokens
I've tested on v2.1.227 (But it's not exactly this version issue)
- Claude Code (the client) sends the request with two system blocks by design: the top-level system field plus a role=system message in the middle of the history. This is its internal format — it looks exactly like that without llama-swap (your capture is precisely what CC itself produced).
- The official Muse ATEM chat template (embedded in the GGUF) injects the tool schemas after every system message. Two system messages → the schemas appear twice.
Solution:
Render the tool schemas and recipient list once, on the first system message, instead of after every system message.
Result: first prompt 89,282 into ~ 48k tokens (~42%);
Emojify this post if it works for you too 🤗
{#
Template: Muse Glimmer ATEM Chat Template (patched: tool definitions + recipients
rendered exactly once, on the first system message, instead of after every
system message; behavior for single-system/no-system requests is byte-identical
to the official template)
Renders the ATEM tool-calling protocol: reasoning channel (to=self), tool
channels (to=<tool>), and the user channel, plus tool definitions and the
valid-recipient list in the system block.
Whitespace note: every tag uses the {%- -%} / {{- -}} stripping markers, so
the indentation below is purely for readability and contributes nothing to
the rendered output.
