Environment
- LM Studio's bundled MLX engine (observed on
app-mlx-generate @34, macOS)
- Model:
mlx-community/Qwen3.8-27B-MTP-4bit (draft-only / MTP repo)
Observed behavior
The draft-only MTP repo is indexed as if it were a normal runnable model:
- It appears in the model catalog.
- It loads successfully.
- Every generation request then crashes deterministically with:
AttributeError: 'Qwen3_5MTPDraftModel' object has no attribute 'get_input_embeddings'
Expected behavior
Either support MTP drafting, or refuse to index/load draft-only repos with a
clear error at load time instead of a generation-time traceback.
Impact
Downstream users select these repos believing they are runnable base models;
the failure surfaces only mid-session, after load "succeeded."
