Adapters change a small part of the model
An adapter can capture a task-specific change without storing a separate fully fine-tuned copy of every model weight. Deployment still needs the appropriate base model and a compatible adapter configuration.
Keep the adapter paired with its base checkpoint
An adapter trained for one base checkpoint is not automatically compatible with another. In an original experiment, keep the base version, data revision, and adapter settings together so the result can be reproduced.
What to remember
Keep adapter and base versions paired.
