Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-MTP APEX-I-MiniPlus-V2.1 Abliterated GGUF (Uncensored / Zero Refusal)

The Definitive Uncensored Frontier MoE · True Directional Refusal Ablation · Dedicated Q8_0 MTP & Vision Companions Included · Full 256K Context

[!NOTE]

🛡️ LOOKING FOR THE STANDARD ALIGNED RELEASE?

If you prefer the standard safety-aligned edition with default guardrails, check out the official base release:
🔗 Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-MTP-APEX-I-MiniPlus-V2.1-Abliterated-GGUF — identical featherweight 15.23 GB footprint, Q5–Q6 fidelity, zero AVX2 CPU stalls, and companion mmproj vision projector.

[!TIP]

🔓 AUTHENTIC HERETIC TPE DIRECTIONAL ABLITERATION (UNCENSORED)

This is the official authentic Abliterated / Uncensored edition of Qwen3.6-35B-A3B APEX-I-MiniPlus V2.1.

• Zero Refusal Vector: Refusal directions across system security, penetration testing, reverse engineering, and red-teaming tasks have been mathematically ablated via TPE multivariate Pareto optimization.
• Orthogonal Residual Steering: The refusal vector was orthogonalized against harmless activations and subtracted strictly from residual projections (ttn.o_proj and mlp.down_proj), guaranteeing that DeltaNet SSM recurrent state matrices remain pristine.
• Uncompromised Reasoning: Reasoning, code synthesis, mathematical derivations, and chain-of-thought pathways retain full fidelity without quantization degradation or lexical degradation.

[!IMPORTANT]

THE DEFINITIVE SPECIFICATION IN THE 14–15 GB CEILING

This APEX-I-MiniPlus-V2.1 release represents the specialized tensor-by-tensor configuration for sparse Mixture-of-Experts quantization within a 14–15 GB envelope. Every tensor across its 40 layers, 256 micro-experts, and integrated MTP block has been mathematically allocated to maximize reasoning precision, preserve routing behavior, and prevent avoidable CPU dequantization stalls.

[!TIP]

🏆 QUANTIZATION FIDELITY & ABLITERATION TRANSPARENCY

Honest Engineering Metrics: Solid Q5_K_M-Tier Quality at a Featherweight 3-Bit Footprint:

• Empirical WikiText-2 Perplexity: 5.4595 ± 0.12874 — ΔPPL +0.1395 (+2.62%) versus the approx. 5.32 uncompressed BF16 baseline.
• Transparent Impact of Directional Abliteration (Q6 → Q5 Tier Shift):
  • In the standard aligned release (Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-MTP-APEX-I-MiniPlus-V2.1-GGUF), our recipe achieves ΔPPL +0.0493 (+0.93%), reaching a near-lossless Q6_K quality tier.
  • In this Abliterated Edition, performing full directional refusal removal (orthogonal projection and subtraction across residual stream matrices) incurs a natural, minor mathematical variance of +0.08 PPL points, placing the final model cleanly in the Q5_K_M quality tier (ΔPPL ≈ +0.13).
  • Why this is exceptional: Standard homogeneous Q5_K_M weighs ~25–26 GB. This build delivers that exact same Q5-tier coherence, code generation, and complex reasoning while occupying only 14.66 GB (13.65 GiB)—a 44% reduction in footprint over Q5_K_M, fitting entirely into a single 16GB consumer GPU.
• Zero Routing Drift: All 80 routing matrices (gate_inp and gate_shexp) remain in uncompressed F32, ensuring tokens are dispatched to the exact right experts on every forward pass without routing degradation.
  [!WARNING]

DO NOT CONFUSE APEX-I-MINIPLUS WITH GENERIC COMMUNITY APEX-I-MINI!

Regardless of release version, NEVER confuse handcrafted APEX-I-MiniPlus builds with generic community APEX-I-Mini releases:

• Generic Community APEX-I-Mini: Uniformly compresses all core MoE experts down to aggressive 2-bit IQ2_S, leaves the sensitive token output head unarmored at 3-bit Q3_K_M, and compresses attention projections down to Q3_K. In deep reasoning models, this triggers severe perplexity spikes, syntax errors, and broken code brackets.
• Handcrafted APEX-I-MiniPlus V2.1: Applies a custom tensor-by-tensor architecture that preserves specified router gates in uncompressed F32, armors the token output head in high-precision Q6_K, safeguards attention gates in Q8_0, and keeps core reasoning experts at calibrated 3-bit treatment.

[!TIP]

SYSTEM RAM INFERENCE: FULL OR PARTIAL

This APEX-I-MiniPlus release is designed for full or partial system-RAM inference. Depending on the processor, memory bandwidth, and DDR4/DDR5 configuration, generation can range from 20 to 45 tok/s. With partial GPU offload, systems that cannot fit 128K or more context entirely in VRAM can place the remaining model and context load in system RAM, maintaining stable, responsive generation at longer context lengths.

Optimization History & Transparency Notice

We maintain our previous releases publicly as a transparent engineering record of continuous optimization. Below is the exact evolutionary roadmap of our MiniPlus architectures:

[!TIP]

Deployment & System Architecture Guide

• Full GPU VRAM Offload (24GB+ VRAM, -ngl 99): Effortless full offload with native 256K context support. Blistering throughput on RTX 3090 / 4090 / 5090 GPUs.
• System RAM Streaming Specialist (DDR4/DDR5 & Massive Context): Specially engineered to run either partially or entirely out of system RAM across large or full (+160k to 256k) context windows. By replacing non-linear codebooks with linear SIMD-optimized Q3_K edge experts and upgrading shared foundation experts to Q5_K across all 40 layers, AVX2 CPU dequantization stalls are completely eliminated. Depending on your processor architecture and memory bandwidth (dual-channel DDR4 or high-speed DDR5 6000+ MT/s), streaming generation in system RAM can approach speeds remarkably close to full VRAM execution, allowing both the dedicated Q8_0 multimodal vision projector (mmproj) and the integrated Multi-Token Prediction tensors to be used by compatible runtimes for speculative decoding and the Q8_0 multimodal projector (mmproj) to be loaded in GPU VRAM for OCR while the main model weights stream effortlessly from system RAM.

EXPLORE THE ESTABLISHED 35B MoE MINIPLUS LINEUP

These are complementary APEX-I-MiniPlus V2.1 releases, not alternate downloads of the same model. Each receives the same tensor-by-tensor approach, integrated MTP where supported, and a design suitable for full or partial system-RAM inference. Choose the model whose native strengths best fit the work you want to do:

• Ornith 1.5 APEX-I-MiniPlus-V2.1 — a software-engineering-focused MoE designed for repository-scale coding and autonomous engineering agents.
  • Best for: Repository-scale development, multi-file code changes, and software-engineering agents.
• Tiel Coder APEX-I-MiniPlus-V2.1 — a specialist coding MoE tuned for agentic programming, iterative tool use, and implementation-heavy work.
  • Best for: Focused coding sessions, iterative debugging, and tool-driven implementation.

All three remain distinct model families with their own behavior and empirical results. Pick one by workload rather than treating them as interchangeable quantization variants.

🏅 Independent Benchmark of the APEX-I-MiniPlus Family (Occamy V2 Reference)

[!NOTE]
External report: zephel01 independently benchmarked Occamy V2. The benchmark below was performed on Occamy-1.0 APEX-I-MiniPlus V2, not on this specific V2.1 model. It is included as independent evidence of the broader MiniPlus quantization approach.

The APEX-I-MiniPlus quantization architecture powering this model was subjected to an extensive independent evaluation by Japanese AI researcher and evaluator zephel01 (CoolZero) on an NVIDIA RTX 5090 (32GB) workstation running llama.cpp CUDA b11027 with FlashAttention (-fa on -ctk q8_0 -ctv q8_0 -ngl 99).

The evaluation tested the APEX-I hybrid MoE engine across 348 unseeded trials on SWE-bench style multi-file Python bug-fixing tasks with hidden pytest suites (llmbench):

• L6 Multi-File Code Generation (60 tasks):
  • Context 32,768 (32K): 93.3% Resolved (46/60 tasks passed 5/5 consecutive trials; 20/20 on Easy–Hard).
  • Context 65,536 (65K): 90.0% Resolved (45/60 tasks passed 5/5 consecutive trials).
  • Match with 25–28 GB Models: Matches or exceeds the resolution rate of full 25–28 GB models (such as Ornith-1.5 and Tiel-Coder 35B-A3B) while consuming over 10 GB less VRAM (14.6 GB vs approx. 26 GB).
• Extreme Context VRAM Scaling (The Hybrid DeltaNet SSM Advantage):
  • 32K Context: 14.6 GB total VRAM allocation.
  • 65K Context: 15.1 GB total VRAM allocation (only +0.5 GB VRAM added when doubling context!).
  • Architectural Explanation: Because 30 of the 40 layers utilize Linear Attention / DeltaNet SSM (O(1) constant recurrence memory), only the 10 full-attention anchor layers expand the KV cache. This proves empirically that 65,536 context runs 100% in VRAM on consumer 16GB GPUs (RTX 4080 / RTX 5080) without offloading to system RAM.
• Measured Real-World Throughput: Sustained single-stream generation of approx. 247 – 251 tok/s on NVIDIA RTX 5090.

The exact tensor breakdown below has been verified directly from the compiled binary weights:

Hardware Throughput & Offload Benchmarks (RTX 30 / 40 / 50 & RAM Streaming)

Empirically verified in Unsloth Studio & llama.cpp:

• Aggressive Hybrid Offload Profile: Hybrid offload supports reasoning-enabled generation with limited VRAM while the remaining model weights stream from system RAM.

[!NOTE]

Empirical Testbed Architecture & Desktop/Server Scaling

• Empirical Benchmark Hardware: The hybrid offload and system RAM streaming behavior documented above was measured on a consumer laptop powered by an Intel 12th Gen Alder Lake architecture featuring a hybrid design of Performance Cores (P-Cores) and Efficient Cores (E-Cores) paired with dual-channel system RAM and constrained laptop power/thermal envelopes.
• Thread Scheduling & E-Core Contention: In hybrid architectures like Alder Lake, OS thread scheduling across background E-Cores and lower single-core mobile power limits introduce memory bandwidth and thread synchronization overhead during CPU dequantization.
• Dramatic Scaling on Higher-End Processors: When running on desktop or server processors (such as modern AMD Ryzen 7000 / 9000 Zen 4/5 series or high-TDP Intel desktop platforms with dedicated performance cores, large L3 caches, and high-bandwidth dual- or quad-channel DDR5 running at 6000+ MT/s), streaming generation speeds and prefill throughput will scale dramatically higher, substantially exceeding these measured mobile numbers.

The 24GB Miracle: Full 256K Context Runs In VRAM!

Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-MTP APEX-I-MiniPlus-V2.1 fits the entire 256K context window within 24GB VRAM:

Note: Leaves comfortable headroom for display drivers and compute buffers on standard 24GB GPUs (RTX 3090, RTX 4090, RTX 5090).

[!TIP]

💡 Empirical 16GB GPU Verification (Single Stream / Desktop)

While theoretical multi-slot server buffers estimate approx. 16.5 GiB, independent hardware testing by zephel01 on an RTX 5090 (Occamy V2 Reference) confirmed that single-stream desktop inference consumes only 14.6 GB at 32,768 ctx and only 15.1 GB at 65,536 ctx (-ctk q8_0 -ctv q8_0 -fa on). This empirically proves that full 65K context runs completely in VRAM on 16GB cards (RTX 4080 / RTX 5080) without system RAM offload!

🔍 Model Inherent Behavior vs. Quantization Fidelity Notice

Any behavioral nuances, stylistic tendencies, domain-specific habits, or zero-shot edge-case oversights stem entirely from the original unquantized checkpoint weights and fine-tuning distribution, NOT from the APEX-I quantization process.
Handcrafted APEX-I-MiniPlus strictly preserves mathematical tensor fidelity—keeping 100% of expert routing matrices (gate_inp) in uncompressed F32 (zero router drift), armoring the token output head in Q6_K, and safeguarding attention gates in Q8_0. Empirical verification records the final GGUF perplexity at 5.3693 ± 0.12528, a ΔPPL +0.0493 (+0.93%) versus the approx. 5.32 BF16 baseline.
