# Grok-1 structural parse artifacts (personal research)

**Personal research tooling output** — not a product release and not a hybrid-quantization
implementation. Structural parse of open Grok-1 checkpoint shards (tensor inventory, MoE
expert layout, routing-critical tensors, conversion policies, reports) produced by the
[rmems/xai-dissect](https://github.com/rmems/xai-dissect) **weight parser**.

This is **not** a copy of the model weights, **not** a finetune, **not** an inference
runtime, and **does not implement hybrid quantization**.

## Related research (ternary packing / route preservation)

Follow-on personal research from [rmems/grok-ozempic](https://github.com/rmems/grok-ozempic),
packaged by **Grok Build: Grok 4.5 (high)**:

| Dataset | What |
|---------|------|
| [`rmems/grok-1-ternary-quant-experiments`](https://huggingface.co/datasets/rmems/grok-1-ternary-quant-experiments) | Experiment reports, τ sweeps, block-0 forward & multi-block chain metrics |
| [`rmems/grok-1-goz1-packs`](https://huggingface.co/datasets/rmems/grok-1-goz1-packs) | Binary GOZ1 packs (v1 + v3) derived from open Grok-1 |

Collection: [Grok-1 dissection and ternary packing](https://huggingface.co/collections/rmems/grok-1-dissection-and-ternary-packing-6a7927095f6a7ca444f003af).

Those repos measure **route preservation under ternary packing**; this dataset remains
**parser / inventory only** and does not implement hybrid quantization.

## Purpose / research context

These files are **personal experiment artifacts**. They were collected with `xai-dissect` to:

1. Map open [`xai-org/grok-1`](https://huggingface.co/xai-org/grok-1) `ckpt-0` shard layout
   (770 tensors, MoE experts, routers, norms).
2. Inventory **packing already present in the open checkpoint** (many expert/attention
   shards ship as int8 packs under names like `quant.weight` in the official release).
3. Support **offline personal research** toward hybrid quantization / routing-preserving
   packing ideas — as **parser ground truth**, not as a shipped quantizer.

If you are looking for a hybrid quantization system, this dataset is the wrong place: it
is only the dissection metadata from running a personal parser over the public weights.

### About packing labels in the data

| Where | What you will see |
|--------|-------------------|
| **Dataset Viewer** (`data/*.jsonl`) | Viewer-friendly names: `packed_weight`, `packing_policy`, `attention_projection_i8` |
| **Full `artifacts/` tree** | **Native xai-dissect / checkpoint vocabulary** may still say `quant_weight`, `quant_policy`, `quant.weight`, etc. |

Those native strings describe **how the open Grok-1 checkpoint is already packed**, not a
claim that this project applied hybrid quantization.

## Source weights

| Field | Value |
|--------|--------|
| Hub model | [`xai-org/grok-1`](https://huggingface.co/xai-org/grok-1) |
| Checkpoint | `ckpt-0` (770 shards) |
| Portable ref in files | `xai-org/grok-1:ckpt-0` |

```bash
hf download xai-org/grok-1 --include "ckpt-0/*" --local-dir checkpoints
```

Upstream open-weights code: [xai-org/grok-1](https://github.com/xai-org/grok-1).

## Dataset configs (Hub viewer)

| Config | Rows | Description |
|--------|------|-------------|
| `tensors` | 770 | Flat tensor inventory rows (`data/tensors.jsonl`; roles use `packed_weight` for int8 packs) |
| `conversion` | 770 | Per-tensor structural names + `packing_policy` |
| `routing_critical` | 64 | Routing-critical tensor summaries |

```python
from datasets import load_dataset

tensors = load_dataset("rmems/grok-1-dissect-artifacts", "tensors", split="train")
print(tensors[0])
```

## Architecture snapshot (from inventory)

| Hyperparameter | Value |
|----------------|-------|
| `vocab_size` | 131072 |
| `d_model` | 6144 |
| `n_experts` | 8 |
| `d_ff` | 32768 |
| `n_blocks` | 64 |
| shards / tensors | 770 |

## What is excluded

- Downstream **planning** surfaces that sketched future packing pilots (`quant-plan`,
  `pilot-selection-plan`) — those are not part of this personal research drop
- Weight tensors / checkpoint blobs
- Host-absolute paths and usernames (all refs use portable `xai-org/grok-1:ckpt-0/...`)
- Local run logs and comparison notes
- Unrelated local campaign side outputs

## How it was produced

1. Run personal [xai-dissect](https://github.com/rmems/xai-dissect) tooling against open
   Grok-1 `ckpt-0` shards.
2. Keep structural parser surfaces only (inventory / experts / routing / stats + manifests).
3. Scrub absolute host paths to portable Hub refs.
4. Emit flat JSONL tables for the Dataset Viewer (viewer-friendly packing field names).
5. Publish as a research dump of parser output — not as a hybrid-quant product.
