Supported Functionality
You can use gpt-oss-120b and gpt-oss-20b with Transformers. If you use the Transformers chat template, it will automatically apply the harmony response format. If you use model.generate directly, you need to apply the harmony format manually using the chat template or use our openai-harmony package.
To get started, install the necessary dependencies to setup your environment:
markdown
pip install -U transformers kernels torch
Once, setup you can proceed to run the model by running the snippet below:
py
from transformers import pipelineimport torchmodel_id = "openai/gpt-oss-120b"pipe = pipeline("text-generation",model=model_id,torch_dtype="auto",device_map="auto",)messages = [{"role": "user", "content": "Explain quantum mechanics clearly and concisely."},]outputs = pipe(messages,max_new_tokens=256,)print(outputs[0]["generated_text"][-1])
Alternatively, you can run the model via Transformers Serve to spin up a OpenAI-compatible webserver:
markdown
transformers servetransformers chat localhost:8000 --model-name-or-path openai/gpt-oss-120b

vLLM recommends using uv for Python dependency management. You can use vLLM to spin up an OpenAI-compatible webserver. The following command will automatically download the model and start the server.
bash
uv pip install --pre vllm==0.10.1+gptoss \--extra-index-url https://wheels.vllm.ai/gpt-oss/ \--extra-index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/nightly/cu128 \--index-strategy unsafe-best-matchvllm serve openai/gpt-oss-120b

If you are trying to run gpt-oss on consumer hardware, you can use Ollama by running the following commands after installing Ollama.
bash
# gpt-oss-120bollama pull gpt-oss:120bollama run gpt-oss:120b

If you are using LM Studio you can use the following commands to download.
bash
# gpt-oss-120blms get openai/gpt-oss-120b

You can download the model weights from the Hugging Face Hub directly from Hugging Face CLI:
shell
# gpt-oss-120bhuggingface-cli download openai/gpt-oss-120b --include "original/*" --local-dir gpt-oss-120b/pip install gpt-osspython -m gpt_oss.chat model/
You can adjust the reasoning level that suits your task across three levels:
The reasoning level can be set in the system prompts, e.g., "Reasoning: high".
The gpt-oss models are excellent for:
Both gpt-oss models can be fine-tuned for a variety of specialized use cases.
This larger model gpt-oss-120b can be fine-tuned on a single H100 node, whereas the smaller gpt-oss-20b can even be fine-tuned on consumer hardware.
