Publisher-reported benchmarks
None extracted from the model card.
AA and Arena describe the hosted model in the stated mode, not each quantized file; scores are never inherited by base, pruned, abliterated or quantized variants and never averaged together.
How to run it
No model-specific recipe in the research. The planner binds the backend’s documented command template (llama.cpp, Ollama, LM Studio, MLX, vLLM) to your plan: open a plan’s details.
Recipes are source examples (settings are the publisher’s or author’s, not measured optima) and were not executed by LocalFit. A downloadable file does not prove your backend build supports the architecture.
