1. Hugging Face Ships Transformers v5.13.1 Patch With vLLM Compatibility Fixes

Hugging Face. Hugging Face released Transformers v5.13.1, a patch update focused on enabling the library to work with the latest release of vLLM. The release adds fixes for custom model handling and legacy layer type remapping, following the larger v5.13.0 release earlier in July that introduced new model architectures and unified HfExporter support. The quick turnaround keeps Transformers aligned with the fast-moving vLLM serving stack that many production inference deployments depend on. Source
