| GGUF quantizations of [CohereLabs/BLS-Mini-Code-1.0](https://huggingface.co/CohereLabs/BLS-Mini-Code-1.0), | |
| a 30.5B-total / ~2.9B-active sparse MoE code model by Cohere (`cohere2moe` | |
| architecture: Command-R7B-style hybrid SWA/full attention with NoPE on global | |
| layers, parallel residual blocks, 128 fine-grained experts with sigmoid top-8 | |
| routing, reasoning-by-default chat format). | |
| > **Status / requirements:** needs llama.cpp with `cohere2moe` support β | |
| > [PR #24260](https://github.com/ggml-org/llama.cpp/pull/24260) (not yet merged). | |

| ## Quants | |
| All quality numbers are measured against the **bf16 model as ground truth**. | |
| The headline table uses **wikitext-2 (test)** β the only evaluation set that is | |
| fully held out from the imatrix calibration data β plus HumanEval/HumanEval+ | |
| (pass@1, greedy, thinking on, 6k token budget; remaining quants in progress). | |
| | file | size | PPL | mean KLD | top-1 % | HumanEval | HumanEval+ | | |
| |---|---|---|---|---|---|---| | |
| | BF16 (2 shards) | 61.0 GB | 7.7126 | β | β | | | | |
| | Q8_0 | 32.4 GB | 7.7356 | 0.007010 | 96.458 | 92.07 | 89.02 | | |

| | Q5_K_M | 21.7 GB | 7.8333 | 0.020963 | 93.811 | 95.73 | 92.68 | | |
| | Q4_K_M | 18.6 GB | 7.9468 | 0.041855 | 91.342 | 93.29 | 90.24 | | |
| | IQ4_XS | 16.4 GB | 7.9794 | 0.049137 | 90.705 | 92.68 | 88.41 | | |
| | IQ3_M | 13.6 GB | 8.2776 | 0.112035 | 85.919 | 90.85 | 87.20 | | |
| | IQ2_M | 10.3 GB | 9.9756 | 0.283656 | 77.616 | 84.15 | 79.88 | | |
| | IQ2_XS | 9.2 GB | 11.0666 | 0.426120 | 73.339 | 79.88 | 77.44 | | |
| | IQ2_XXS | 8.3 GB | 12.6780 | 0.549859 | 69.743 | 59.15 | 59.15 | | |
| HumanEval is pass@1 over 164 problems, so single-token greedy flips on a handful | |
| of problems move the score by a few points - read it as a sanity check, not a | |
| fine-grained ranking. The Q4-through-Q8 quants are statistically interchangeable | |
| on it (the spread is noise); **mean KLD and top-1 % are the reliable quality | |
| ordering**. The slope only becomes clear lower down: IQ3_M holds up, the IQ2 tier | |
| degrades visibly, and IQ2_XXS falls off a cliff (identical HumanEval/HumanEval+ | |
| is the giveaway - it produces enough malformed code that the extra tests prune | |
| almost nothing further). | |
| Recommendations: **Q5_K_M** if you have the memory (effectively lossless), | |
| **IQ4_XS** for the best size/quality ratio (matches Q4_K_M at -2.2 GB), | |
| **IQ3_M** as the smallest quant still reasonable for code. The IQ2 tier exists | |
| for memory-constrained setups and degrades noticeably - use with expectations | |
| set accordingly. Embeddings are tied (also the output head) and kept at q6_K | |
| on Q4_K_M and below. | |
| ## Per-domain breakdown | |
| The three sets below are also part of the imatrix calibration corpus, so their | |
| numbers carry a mild in-distribution bias - read them as domain comparisons | |
| rather than held-out scores. All corpora are included in | |
| `eval-corpora.tar.zst` for reproduction. | |

| ### Code | |
| A seeded random sample of real source files from the | |
| [llama.cpp](https://github.com/ggml-org/llama.cpp) tree (MIT): C/C++ core and | |
| ggml, Python conversion tooling, shell scripts; capped at 25 kB per file, | |
| ~400 kB total. Note how confident the model is on code (PPL ~2.4) - and that | |
| top-1 agreement holds up better here than on prose at every quant level. | |

| ### Chat (model-native format) | |
| Hand-written for this release: 13 short programming conversations | |
| (Python/SQL/C/Rust/git topics, two in German), each with a thinking block, | |
| plus one complete tool-call round trip - rendered in the model's raw turn-token | |
| dialect (`<|START_OF_TURN_TOKEN|>`, `<|START_THINKING|>`, `<|START_ACTION|>`, | |
| ...). This exercises the control-token and expert-routing paths that real chat | |
| traffic hits and plain text never does. Small set (~7 chunks) - treat the | |
| numbers as indicative. | |

| ## Reasoning / chat template | |
| These GGUFs embed an **additively normalized** chat template (also in this repo | |
| as `chat_template.jinja`): the standard `enable_thinking` / | |
| `reasoning_content` conventions are mapped onto Cohere's native `reasoning` / | |
| `reasoning_effort` / `thinking` variables, so llama.cpp detects reasoning | |
| support automatically (`thinking = 1`), separates `reasoning_content` from | |
| `content`, and supports thinking toggles. All Cohere-native variables keep | |
| working; rendering is byte-identical for native invocations. | |
| ```bash | |
| llama-server -m BLS-Mini-Code-1.0-Q5_K_M.gguf --jinja | |
| ``` | |
| - thinking on (default): response arrives as `reasoning_content` + `content` | |
| - disable thinking per request: `"chat_template_kwargs": {"enable_thinking": false}` | |
| (or Cohere-native: `{"reasoning_effort": "none"}`) | |
| - tool calling works through the OpenAI-compatible API (parallel calls included) | |
| ## imatrix | |
| `BLS-Mini-Code-1.0.imatrix` (included) was computed on the **bf16** model over | |
| the v3 + code + chat mix described above (326x512-token chunks), reaching full | |
| coverage of all 128 experts in every layer. | |
| ## Validation | |
| - f32 logit-level parity vs HF transformers on a truncated-expert variant of | |
| the checkpoint (full-vocab comparison at every position): top-1 agreement | |
| 26/27, mean |dlogprob| 0.012 - the only disagreement a 0.013 near-tie. | |
| - Tool calling, parallel calls, multi-turn with reasoning passback, and a live | |
| agentic tool-execution loop verified end to end via `llama-server`. | |
| - 500k context advertised by the model; KV cache at long context stays small | |
| thanks to iSWA (only 13 of 49 layers are global; ~13.6 GB KV at 500k). | |
