There was a problem hiding this comment.
Yes, this does look cleaner, and it matches the unbatched decoding logic. Thank you!

What does this PR do?
While working through the Fast Tokenizers documentation to understand encode()/decode(), I observed a few inconsistencies. This PR updates the examples to match the observed behavior and keeps the documentation consistent across the page.
Documentation Changes
Encode and decode section:
tokenizer.decode(outputs["input_ids"])withtokenizer.decode(input_ids)as tokenizer.encode() returns just a list of token IDs rather than an object.
tokenizer.decode()to display that it returns a string (instead of a list).Special tokens section:
decode()example by replacingoutputs["input_ids"]withinput_idsand updating the expected output to a string.Fixes # (issue)
Code Agent Policy
The Transformers repo is currently being overwhelmed by a large number of PRs and issue comments written by
code agents. These often are low-quality, or fix extremely minor issues that occur rarely or never in practice.
As a result, we're instituting a rule that first-time contributors should not use code agents to submit PRs or issues.
We'd also ask autonomous "OpenClaw"-like agents not to open any PRs or issues.
Issues/PRs from first-time contributors that violate this rule will probably just be closed without review, and we
might block you, especially if you open more than one or appear to be deliberately ignoring this. We especially do not
want new contributors to jump in on random issues to contribute an agent-written fix. This creates lots of noise
for reviewers and other users and will almost certainly get you blocked.
