## Overview

This is a **tone/personality-focused** model. It emphasizes warmth, friendliness, and seasonal flavor rather than deep reasoning or strict technical accuracy.

Recommended for:
- Creative writing and short stories
- Holiday / spring-themed roleplay
- Light conversational assistants
- Local demos and low-resource systems

Not optimized for:
- Complex reasoning
- Factual retrieval
- Long-horizon planning

## Quantized Files

All files are produced from the same merged model and differ only in quantization.

| File | Quantization | Approx. Size |
|---|---|---:|
| `release_v1.TQ1_0.gguf` | TQ1_0 | ~0.47 GB |
| `release_v1.Q2_K.gguf` | Q2_K | ~0.68 GB |
| `release_v1.Q3_K_S.gguf` | Q3_K_S | ~0.76 GB |
| `release_v1.Q3_K_M.gguf` | Q3_K_M | ~0.82 GB |
| `release_v1.Q4_K_S.gguf` | Q4_K_S | ~0.94 GB |
| `release_v1.Q4_K_M.gguf` | Q4_K_M | ~0.99 GB |
| `release_v1.Q5_K_S.gguf` | Q5_K_S | ~1.10 GB |
| `release_v1.Q5_K_M.gguf` | Q5_K_M | ~1.13 GB |
| `release_v1.Q6_K.gguf` | Q6_K | ~1.27 GB |
| `release_v1.Q8_0.gguf` | Q8_0 | ~1.65 GB |

### Recommendations

- **Default (balanced):** `Q4_K_M`
- **Higher quality:** `Q5_K_M`, `Q6_K`, `Q8_0`
- **Low RAM systems:** `Q3_K_M`, `Q2_K`
- **Ultra-low memory (experimental):** `TQ1_0`
