**FastBrain-9B** (`9.4B` total parameters: `Qwen3.5-9B` hybrid backbone + `116M` `JointSchemaHead`) is a single-forward-pass, non-autoregressive **System-1 structured decision model**.

Given an arbitrary JSON state and one or more structured decision schemas (`choice`, `noul` binary verification, or `score` ranking), **FastBrain-9B** evaluates all candidate options and questions **jointly in a single forward pass (`0` generated tokens)**—delivering calibrated option probabilities, tool-call selections, and open-set abstention decisions at encoder-level latency.

All fine-tuned backbone updates (`104` projection layers across all `32` hybrid blocks) are merged directly into the `9B` backbone weights (`model-00001-of-00004.safetensors` .. `model-00004-of-00004.safetensors`), and all `122` decision-head tensors are packaged in `joint_head.safetensors`. **No external LoRA or PEFT adapter is required at inference time.**

## Architecture

1. **Hybrid Gated DeltaNet + Full-Attention Backbone (`9.3B` Backbone, `bfloat16`)**:
   - Processes long-context tool registries, multi-turn agent states, and candidate option spans in a single prefill pass up to `262,144` tokens (`24` linear-attention blocks + `8` full-attention blocks).
   - Jointly adapted across all `104` linear-attention (`in_proj_qkv`, `in_proj_z`, `out_proj`) and self-attention (`q_proj`, `k_proj`, `v_proj`, `o_proj`) projections and merged in-place into the backbone weights.
2. **Joint Schema Decision Head (`joint_head.safetensors`, `116M` Parameters)**:
   - Extracts question-level and option-level span representations directly from the final hidden states and scores all questions (`choice`, `noul`, `score`) simultaneously without autoregressive decoding (`output_tokens = 0`).
3. **Compile-Time AST Schema-Aware Margin Calibration (`joint_schema_model.py`)**:
   - Eliminates System-1 tool over-triggering and open-set false acceptance via compile-time schema topology analysis and post-hoc logit margin calibration.

## Quickstart

`TypeScript/FastBrain-9B` is a drop-in replacement for `Cloudflare/clef-flash` using the standard `joint_schema_model` runtime:

```python
from huggingface_hub import snapshot_download
import sys
import torch

model_dir = snapshot_download("TypeScript/FastBrain-9B")
sys.path.insert(0, model_dir)
import joint_schema_model as clef

model, processor = clef.load_release_model(model_dir, device="cuda", dtype=torch.bfloat16)

response = clef.systemone(model, processor, {
    "model": "TypeScript/FastBrain-9B",
    "state": {
        "query": "Can you check my account balance?",
        "tools": ["get_balance", "transfer_funds"],
    },
    "questions": {
        "q": {
            "type": "choice",
            "query": "Select the best next action.",
            "criteria": {
                "a": "Call <tool_call>{\"name\": \"get_balance\", \"arguments\": {}}</tool_call>",
                "b": "Could you please provide your account ID or authentication token first?",
                "c": "I am unable to access personal banking records.",
            },
        },
    },
})
print(response)
```
