Description
First of all, thank you for this amazing model - it works incredibly well and covers almost all our needs for UI testing.
I’m wondering if you have any plans to officially support the MLX format so it can run natively on Apple hardware?
Community-converted models, such as [UI-TARS-1.5-7B-6bit](https://huggingface.co/mlx-community/UI-TARS-1.5-7B-6bit), already perform quite well - even on mid-range MacBooks. However, there seem to be issues with coordinate generation, which currently fails consistently.
Some major players, like Google with Gemma, have already started releasing official MLX-compatible models. It would be amazing to see official MLX support for UI-TARS as well.
Thanks again for your great work!

Research direction
The issue names no repository files, tests, or entry points. Start by examining the linked MLX-community model and reproducing its coordinate-generation failure on Apple hardware; done means official MLX support runs natively and produces correct coordinates.
