KAT-Coder-V2.5-Dev · REAP-50 (pruned bf16)

The 50%-REAP-pruned Kwaipilot/KAT-Coder-V2.5-Dev in bf16 — the source checkpoint behind the NVFP4 and GGUF releases. Provided so others can produce their own quants (AWQ, EXL2, MLX, custom GGUF, …).

  • 256 → 128 experts via REAP (Router-weighted Expert Activation Pruning), with a router-renormalization fix over the survivors.
  • qwen3_5_moe hybrid (Gated-DeltaNet + attention + MoE). No MTP head (mtp_num_hidden_layers: 0); reload-verified with a real forward pass.
  • Vision tower not stripped in this checkpoint — use Qwen3_5MoeForCausalLM for text-only.

Base-model quality (measured on the NVFP4A16 quant of this checkpoint, greedy, instruct): HumanEval+ ~90%, MBPP+ ~90%. These are single greedy draws; the accuracy harness has a measured run-to-run spread of 1.85–4.27 pp per task (2026-09-05), so read small differences as unresolved.
