Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-Abliterated-Heretic — Hebrus GGUF

This repository holds a Hebrus-native GGUF build of the community Heretic-abliterated Qwen3.6-35B-A3B, dedicated to Hebrus, the inference engine created by andreaborio as a fork of Salvatore Sanfilippo's antirez/ds4. Its routed MoE weights are embedded in the GGUF as a self-describing ds4.expert_major.v2 store, the same format used by andreaborio/Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-Hebrus-GGUF, the non-abliterated reference release this file is a drop-in replacement for (same chat template and tokenizer config, different — abliterated — weights).

Uncensored model: this build's refusal behavior has been removed at the weight level using the community Heretic technique. It is materially more willing to comply with a wide range of requests, including harmful ones, than the base Qwen3.6-35B-A3B. Use accordingly.

This is a Hebrus-native GGUF extension, not a portable GGUF layout. Generic GGUF loaders (stock llama.cpp, Ollama, LM Studio, etc.) cannot reconstruct or execute its routed weights — the expert tensors are stored as MLX-compatible affine 4-bit groups, which the standard GGUF spec does not define. If you need a portable GGUF of this fine-tune, use the source repos in Provenance below instead.

Provenance

Base model Qwen/Qwen3.6-35B-A3B — Apache 2.0, Qwen (Alibaba), MoE, 35B total / 3B active params, 40 layers, 256 experts (8 routed + 1 shared)
Abliteration Youssofal/Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-Abliterated-Heretic-BF16 — "Heretic" technique (refusal-direction removal from embed_tokens, o_proj, down_proj)
Community repack (source of this build) intelservice77/Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-Abliterated-Heretic-BF16-Q4_K_S-GGUF
Runtime / format Hebrus, ds4.expert_major.v2 (ExpertMajor v2 / MLX-affine4-g64)

intelservice77's Q4_K_S repack used a standard llama-quantize recipe that doesn't respect Hebrus's per-tensor-category type requirements (exact f32 for norms/small SSM params, exact q4_k only for routed-expert weights, f16-or-q8_0 elsewhere). This build fixes that, then converts the corrected canonical GGUF into ExpertMajor v2 / MLX-affine4-g64:

  1. Tensor-type fixes: swapped in bytes from the community's Q8_0 release (same abliterated weights, higher precision — no extra quantization loss) for everything that needed f16-or-q8_0, borrowed SSM gating params from the unmodified base model (abliteration doesn't touch those), and re-quantized the handful of expert tensors that still needed it.
  2. ExpertMajor v2 repack: converted against a bit-depth-normalized MLX 4-bit source of the same fine-tune, using Hebrus's ds4-expert-major.py.

Verified with ds4 --inspect: tensor types and counts identical to the official Hebrus base build. Abliteration behavior confirmed directly: lockpicking/pentesting prompts get direct answers; extreme-content prompts (e.g. explosives) still show partial residual refusal, consistent with Heretic not uniformly clearing every refusal category.

Run with Hebrus

Use andreaborio/hebrus main at commit d61a6d73f5c38e92e433beb9e404d06d79b153b1 or a compatible descendant — verified against exactly this build. Earlier checkouts (including the 73a332f cited as the ExpertMajor v2 baseline) hit a real bug, "Qwen Metal batched prefill failed at position 0", reproduced identically against the official non-abliterated release and fixed in this commit.

The embedded ExpertMajor v2 store, Metal backend, and residency policy are selected automatically. AUTO uses SSD streaming when the resident budget doesn't fit; the admission floor is 16 GiB unified memory.

Measured performance

Measured on an Apple M1 Pro, 32 GiB, SSD-streamed experts:

Metric Result
Prefill (5,664-token prompt) ~238 t/s
Decode (after SSD expert-cache warmup) ~15–18 t/s
Long-context retrieval (~5.7k tokens, inserted passphrase) Correct, no degradation from re-quantization
Multi-step reasoning Correct, self-verified

These are bounded local measurements; context, output length, thermals, storage, and memory pressure affect results. See andreaborio/Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-Hebrus-GGUF for measurements on Apple M5 Pro hardware with the non-abliterated release.
