These weights were produced with stable-diffusion.cpp (--mode convert) and are intended for use with stable-diffusion.cpp / GGUF-aware runtimes. FLUX.2 is by Black Forest Labs; klein 4B is Apache-2.0.

Files & precision

Only the heavy MLP / attention / linear weights are quantized (via --tensor-type-rules); norms and embeddings are kept at higher precision, which preserves quality at low bit-depth.

File	Precision (quant)	Bits (weights)	Size
`flux-2-klein-4b-Q2_K.gguf`	Q2_K	~2-bit K-quant	1.49 GB
`flux-2-klein-4b-Q4_K.gguf`	Q4_K	~4-bit K-quant	2.29 GB
`flux-2-klein-4b-Q5_K.gguf`	Q5_K	~5-bit K-quant	2.72 GB

Quantization rule used:

^.*(_mlp\.(0|2)|_attn\.(proj|qkv)|\.linear(1|2))\.weight=<qtype>

Which to pick: Q4_K is the recommended balance for 8GB. Q5_K for best fidelity if you have headroom. Q2_K for the tightest RAM / smallest storage (softer detail).

Usage (stable-diffusion.cpp)

bash

sd-cli \
  --diffusion-model flux-2-klein-4b-Q4_K.gguf \
  --vae flux2-vae.safetensors \
  --llm Qwen3-4B-Q4_K_M.gguf \
  -p "a red fox in an autumn forest, golden hour" \

klein is step-distilled: use 4 steps and CFG 1.0 (euler). A minimal pure C++ front-end is available as sd-flux2.cpp.
