When does this happen?

IF Upgrading transformers from v4.53.2 to v4.54.0.dev0 changes the order of hidden states when `output_hidden_states=True`; hidden state indices shift by one for models with separate embedding layers, silently breaking downstream code.

How others solved it

THEN Pin transformers to v4.53.2 or adjust code to account for the missing embedding hidden state: if using a model like Llama, manually prepend the embedding hidden state before the list. Use version detection to conditionally handle the offset.

import transformers
if parse_version(transformers.__version__) >= parse_version('4.54.0'):
    # Prepend embedding hidden state (e.g., from model.get_input_embeddings())
    hidden_states = [embedding_hidden_state] + hidden_states
