 ### Train Draft Model with Dumped Hidden States

+### Offline Training with Custom Models (e.g., Kimi)
+
+For proprietary or non-HuggingFace models like Kimi, follow this offline training workflow:
+
+1. **Prepare your input conversations** in the standard format (`.jsonl` with conversation IDs and content)
+
+2. **Extract hidden states offline** using either backend:
+
+```bash
+# Using HuggingFace backend (works with any HF-compatible model)
+python collect_hidden_states/compute_hidden_states_hf.py \
+            --model deepseek-ai/Kimi-K2 \
+            --input-file input_conversations/train.jsonl \
+            --output-dir hidden_states_dir
+```
+
+3. **Create an eagle_config.json** for your model. For Kimi models, specify the `kimik2` decoder type:
+
+```json
+{
+    "num_hidden_layers": 2,
+    "intermediate_size": 8192
+}
+```
+
+4. **Launch offline training** with the `--eagle_decoder_type` parameter:
+
+```bash
+./launch_train.sh --model deepseek-ai/Kimi-K2 \
+            --output_dir output_dir \
+            --data input_conversations/train.jsonl \
+            --num_epochs 1 \
+            --eagle_config eagle_config.json \
+            --offline-data hidden_states_dir \
+            --eagle_decoder_type kimik2
+```
+
+Note: The `--eagle_decoder_type` parameter accepts:
+- `llama` (default, for Llama, Mistral, Qwen, Phi, etc.)
+- `kimik2` (for Kimi models like K2 and K2.5)
+
+This workflow is particularly useful for large models or when training resources are limited, as hidden states can be computed once and reused for multiple training runs.
