Adding a new cookbook recipe

1. Create a new .mdx file under cookbook/ following the existing directory structure (e.g., cookbook/llm/<Vendor>/<Model>.mdx or cookbook/vlm/<Vendor>/<Model>.mdx)
2. Use an existing recipe like cookbook/llm/Qwen/Qwen3.5.mdx as a template
3. Add your page to the navigation in docs.json
4. Each recipe should include:
   • Model introduction and key specs
   • Installation / environment setup
   • Deployment configuration (with hardware recommendations)
   • Usage examples (basic + advanced)
   • Benchmarks (if available)

Writing guidelines

• Use active voice: "Run the command" not "The command should be run"
• Address the reader as "you"
• Keep sentences concise — one idea per sentence
• Lead with the goal, then the steps
• Use consistent terminology
• Include concrete examples and code snippets
