Archive - Legacy MAX Recipes

⚠️ This branch contains legacy content that is no longer actively maintained.

These recipes are provided "as-is" for historical reference only and may not work with current versions of MAX or its dependencies.

This archive contains standalone MAX recipes that were part of the original max-recipes repository structure. As of October 2025, the repository has been restructured to focus on the Modular Agentic Cookbook, a unified collection of modern fullstack web applications built to work with MAX or any other serving solution with an OpenAI-compatible API.

The recipes in this archive represent earlier explorations and examples that have been superseded by the comprehensive, well-documented cookbook approach.

• max-offline-inference - Offline inference setup examples

• scripts - Legacy validation and testing scripts
  • run_tests.py - Test runner for multiple recipe directories
  • validate_metadata.py - Metadata validation for recipe manifests

1. Inconsistent structure - Each recipe had its own setup, dependencies, and patterns
2. Maintenance burden - Keeping numerous standalone projects up-to-date with MAX releases
3. User experience - Difficult to compare approaches or reuse code across recipes

For modern, actively maintained examples and recipes, please see:

• Modular Agentic Cookbook - The main repository documentation
• Cookbook Recipes - Current recipe implementations
• MAX Documentation - Official Modular Platform documentation
• MAX Builds - GenAI models optimized for use with MAX

⚠️ Important: These archived recipes may have compatibility issues:

• Dependencies may be outdated or deprecated
• API signatures may have changed in newer MAX versions
• Python package versions may conflict with current requirements
• GPU drivers and runtime requirements may differ
• Some integrations may no longer be supported

If you choose to explore or use content from this archive:

1. Check the specific recipe's README for its original requirements
2. Be prepared to update dependencies and fix compatibility issues
3. Refer to the MAX documentation for current API usage
4. Consider adapting the concepts to the modern Agentic Cookbook structure instead

We are no longer accepting contributions or updates to archived recipes. If you have improvements or new ideas:

• For new recipes: Consider contributing to the Agentic Cookbook
• For issues: Check if the functionality exists in the current cookbook
• For questions: Visit the Modular Forum or Discord

Since these recipes are no longer maintained:

• ❌ No bug fixes or updates will be provided
• ❌ No compatibility testing with new MAX releases
