Model Introduction

LongCat-Flash-Lite-Sparse is a non-thinking Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) model with 69B total parameters and approximately 3B activated parameters per token. Built on LongCat-Flash-Lite, it replaces dense MLA with LongCat Sparse Attention (LSA) and natively supports context lengths of up to 1M tokens. Compared with its dense predecessor, LongCat-Flash-Lite-Sparse improves long-context inference efficiency and agentic capabilities while preserving strong reasoning and general-knowledge performance.

Key Features

🌟 LongCat Sparse Attention (LSA)

LSA is a hardware-efficient sparse-attention framework that extends DeepSeek Sparse Attention (DSA) with three complementary indexing mechanisms:

• Streaming-Aware Indexing (SI) reallocates part of the token-selection budget to a fixed sink and local sliding window while retaining dynamic sparse selection for the remaining tokens. This design converts fragmented KV access into more predictable, contiguous reads, improving HBM access efficiency and effective bandwidth.
• Cross-Layer Indexing (CLI) exploits the stability of attention saliency across adjacent layers, allowing multiple consecutive layers to reuse the results of a single indexing pass at inference time. This capability is learned through cross-layer distillation during training.
• Hierarchical Indexing (HI) adopts a coarse-to-fine, two-stage scoring scheme: it first recalls candidate blocks using coarse-grained scores and then performs fine-grained token selection within those blocks. By reducing the candidate space processed for each query, HI lowers indexing overhead and can be enabled at inference time without additional training.

Together, these mechanisms enable LongCat-Flash-Lite-Sparse to process long contexts substantially more efficiently without compromising model quality.

🌟 Native 1M-Token Context Support

To strengthen long-context capabilities, we update the long-context extension stage of LongCat-Flash-Lite with an enriched corpus and a progressive schedule that scales to 1,024K, enabling native support for context lengths up to 1M.

🌟 Strong Agentic Performance

LongCat-Flash-Lite-Sparse delivers stronger performance than its dense predecessor on agentic coding, search, and tool-use tasks.

Deployment

We have implemented basic adaptations in SGLang (PR) to support the deployment of LongCat-Flash-Lite-Sparse.

LongCat-Flash-Lite-Sparse can be served on a single node (e.g., 1xH20-141G).

The server can be launched as follows:

python3 -m sglang.launch_server \
  --trust-remote-code \
  --model meituan-longcat/LongCat-Flash-Lite-Sparse \
  --host 0.0.0.0 \
  --port 30000 \
  --max-running-requests 64 \
  --mem-fraction-static 0.93 \
