# kimodo.cpp GGML/C++ implementation of NVIDIA's Kimodo text-to-motion model. ## Status `Kimodo-SMPLX-RP-v1` accepts either a UTF-8 prompt or a precomputed LLM2Vec embedding and generates unconstrained SMPL-X22 local rotations and root translations on CPU or Vulkan. The text encoder uses eight-layer Vulkan chunks by default; set `KIMODO_TEXT_LAYER_CHUNK=1..32` to tune VRAM use. Included: checked GGUF loading, safetensors conversion, DDIM sampling, C/C++ APIs, CPU/Vulkan parity tests, and a local text-to-motion demo. Constraints, SOMA, G1, GLB export, and quantised models are not implemented yet. ## Build and test GGML is a pinned Git submodule: ```sh git submodule update --init --recursive nix develop path:. --command cmake --preset debug nix develop path:. --command cmake --build --preset debug nix develop path:. --command ctest --preset debug ``` The standard test suite requires the local motion GGUF, text bundle, and fixtures. It never downloads weights by itself. `release`, `asan-ubsan`, and `fuzz` presets are also available. For sanitizer work: ```sh nix develop path:. --command cmake --preset asan-ubsan nix develop path:. --command cmake --build --preset asan-ubsan nix develop path:. --command env \ LD_LIBRARY_PATH="$PWD/build/asan-ubsan/ggml/src:$PWD/build/asan-ubsan/ggml/src/ggml-vulkan:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH" \ ASAN_OPTIONS=detect_leaks=0:abort_on_error=1 UBSAN_OPTIONS=print_stacktrace=1 \ ctest --preset asan-ubsan --output-on-failure ``` Leak detection is disabled because Vulkan loader/driver allocations are global to the process. The GGUF parser fuzzer requires Clang. ## API `include/kimodo/kimodo_capi.h` is the C API. Model loading checks the motion GGUF and text bundle before inference. Use `kimodo_generate_embedding` for 4096 F32 values or `kimodo_generate` for text. Both return SMPL-X22 root translations and local XYZW rotations. ## Demo After building the debug preset and converting the text bundle: ```sh go run ./demo -addr 0.0.0.0:8094 ``` Open `http://localhost:8094`. The left sidebar contains the prompt and a persistent history; choosing a previous animation restores its prompt for a new generation. ## Licensed weights The SMPL-X checkpoint and Llama base model are gated. After accepting their Hugging Face licences and authenticating, download the exact revisions and hash manifests with: ```sh nix develop path:. --command hf auth login nix develop path:. --command scripts/download_weights.sh \ --output "$PWD/models" --with-text ``` Convert the local LLM2Vec model to the native component bundle with: ```sh nix develop path:. --command scripts/convert_llm2vec_bundle.sh \ "$PWD/models/llama3-8b-instruct-base" "$PWD/generated/llm2vec-text-bundle" ```
