VELUM-Coder

VELUM-Coder is a coding-focused fine-tune derived from ornith-ai/Ornith-1.5-9B.

This repository contains GGUF quantizations generated from the completed recovery adapter.

  • Source adapter: ornith_fds_recovered_ckpt250
  • Dataset: guell00/fds
  • llama.cpp commit: f280b26983ad0fdb705a0d9ebf0503e76f2899b0
  • Generated: 2026-08-25 01:57 UTC

Quantization policy

  • Q8_0 is intentionally generated without an importance matrix.
  • Every Q4, Q3, Q2 and IQ1 build is invoked with the same domain-specific imatrix.
  • No Q5 or Q6 files are produced.
  • The extreme IQ1_M build keeps the token embedding and output tensors at Q8_0 while the body is quantized as IQ1_M.
  • The imatrix is generated from code/conversation samples from guell00/fds.
  • <think>...</think> blocks are removed from assistant calibration text so calibration emphasizes direct answers and code.

Recommended files

Best default: VELUM-Coder-Q4_K_M.gguf

Higher quality: VELUM-Coder-Q8_0.gguf

Lower memory: try VELUM-Coder-IQ3_M.gguf or VELUM-Coder-IQ2_M.gguf.

Extreme experiment: VELUM-Coder-IQ1_M.gguf. This is not expected to preserve Q4-level quality. Embedding/output protection exists only to reduce catastrophic collapse.

Importance matrix

The generated importance matrix is uploaded as:

imatrix/VELUM-Coder-imatrix.gguf

The calibration text itself is not uploaded; it is only an intermediate generated from guell00/fds.

llama.cpp

Example:

llama-cli -hf guell00/VELUM-Coder:Q4_K_M -c 16384

Server:

llama-server -hf guell00/VELUM-Coder:Q4_K_M -c 16384

Manual download:

hf download guell00/VELUM-Coder VELUM-Coder-Q4_K_M.gguf --local-dir .

Then:

llama-cli -m VELUM-Coder-Q4_K_M.gguf -c 16384

Adapter

The final recovery LoRA adapter is also uploaded under adapter/ when adapter upload is enabled.

Notes

Low-bit quantization is destructive. Q2 and especially IQ1_M are experimental options for constrained hardware, not substitutes for Q4/Q8 quality.

GGUFs are produced directly by llama-quantize and uploaded after successful quantization. No conversational inference is run by this pipeline.
