M3
Primary method

Layer-wise ablation

Applied on top of direct removal inherited from the base model.
Confidence
HIGH
Inherited from base model
Why this label 2 signals
Producer identity confirmed by naming conventions, tags or the model card. This label is very unlikely to change.
  • 'heretic' in model name (Heretic-produced)
  • Heretic uses layer-wise optimization (M3) with underlying direction removal (M1)
Refusal direction extracted via
Extraction technique

Difference-of-means

Confidence
HIGH
Why we say so
name contains 'heretic'; Heretic default extraction is difference-of-means (Arditi 2024)

Catalog is the map. Apps are the tools.

Run models on your own machine, not in the cloud.

Every model page has an "Open in Abliteration" button that hands the model directly to the first-party desktop client, at the quantization your rig can actually run. No API keys, no subscription, no prompt leakage.
