 A much smaller model (called the _draft model_) generates drafts.
 A draft model is the most used approach in speculative decoding.
 
+### EAGLE-3 (`draft-eagle3`)
+
+EAGLE-3 uses a small draft model that reads the target model's hidden states to predict the next tokens, so it
+reaches higher acceptance than a standalone draft model of the same size. The draft is a one-layer transformer
+trained for a specific target model; it shares the target model's tokenizer and, optionally, uses a reduced draft
+vocabulary with its own `lm_head`, which is mapped back using a `d2t` table.
+
+Convert the EAGLE-3 checkpoint with `--target-model-dir` so it inherits the target's tokenizer and the layer
+indices to read. Both the SpecForge `LlamaForCausalLMEagle3` and the vLLM/AngelSlim `Eagle3LlamaForCausalLM`
+checkpoint formats are supported (for example [`AngelSlim/Qwen3-4B_eagle3`](https://huggingface.co/AngelSlim/Qwen3-4B_eagle3)
+for `Qwen/Qwen3-4B`):
