This repository is a complete Apple MLX deployment of EryriLabs/Ornith-1.5-35B-A3B-BigBang-MTP, converted with oMLX v0.6.2 using importance-matrix-enhanced oQ mixed-precision quantization.

Download the whole repository: the Safetensors shards require the included index, model config, tokenizer, chat template, and image/video processor files. This is not a GGUF, Transformers, or NInfer artifact.

Quick facts

Item	Value
Model type	`qwen3_5_moe`
Quantization layout	Affine 6-bit with group size 64 is the default tier; the stored config records 244 per-tensor precision overrides. Ornith overrides use group sizes 64 and 128, so this is not a uniform 6-bit checkpoint.
Tensor payload	30,131,305,807 bytes / 28.06 GiB
Safetensors shards	6
Conversion runtime	oMLX 0.6.2
Calibration	`oqe_code_multilingual`, 128 samples × 512 tokens
Included model features	Vision resources and one MTP layer
Intended runtime	oMLX on Apple Silicon/macOS

Choose a variant

Variant	Nominal tier	Tensor payload	Shards
oQ4e	4-bit	21,612,915,979 bytes / 20.13 GiB	5
oQ6e (this repo)	6-bit	30,131,305,807 bytes / 28.06 GiB	6
oQ8e	8-bit	38,604,987,852 bytes / 35.95 GiB	8

These tiers differ in storage and quantization layout. No same-Mac quality, memory, TTFT, or throughput comparison is published here, so the table should not be read as a benchmark.

Download

Install the Hugging Face CLI, then place the complete repository below oMLX's model directory:

bash

mkdir -p "$HOME/.omlx/models/pyros-vault"
hf download pyros-vault/Ornith-1.5-35B-A3B-BigBang-oQ6e-mtp \
  --local-dir "$HOME/.omlx/models/pyros-vault/Ornith-1.5-35B-A3B-BigBang-oQ6e-mtp"

Serve with oMLX

Install the current oMLX runtime and start its OpenAI-compatible server:

bash

brew tap jundot/omlx https://github.com/jundot/omlx
brew install jundot/omlx/omlx
omlx serve --model-dir "$HOME/.omlx/models"

Discover the exact model ID exposed by your installed oMLX version:

curl http://127.0.0.1:8000/v1/models

Use that returned ID with the OpenAI-compatible endpoint. MTP files being present does not automatically enable speculative decoding: Lightning MTP is opt-in through oMLX model settings, and behavior can vary by runtime version and Apple chip.

Quantization and verification

The bundled oq_imatrix_report.json records calibration with oqe_code_multilingual over 128 sequences of 512 tokens. The included report records 523 importance entries, 481 applied modules, two missing names, no shape mismatches, and no uncovered experts.

The report and tensor metadata establish how the artifact was built; they are not an end-to-end quality benchmark. Repository structure, configs, shard counts, payload sizes, and quantization metadata were audited for this card. Inference was not rerun on a Mac, so no local speed, memory, MTP-acceptance, Vision-quality, or long-context claim is made.

Provenance

The direct upstream is EryriLabs' TIES merge of Ornith, BigBang, and the shared Qwen base. This artifact preserves the upstream target, Vision tower, and MTP component; it does not contain NInfer DFlash weights. See the upstream model card for the merge recipe and upstream evaluation. Those quality results were not independently reproduced for this oQ conversion.

Limitations

MLX/oMLX targets Apple Silicon and macOS; this repository is not runnable through CUDA on Windows.
Hugging Face hosted inference does not serve this custom oMLX layout.
The config advertises a 262,144-token maximum context. That value is model metadata, not a claim that this full context was tested or will fit your machine.
Vision preprocessing, tool use, MTP acceptance, memory use, and throughput depend on the oMLX version, client, prompt, and Apple hardware.
Quantization can change output quality. Evaluate this exact variant on your workload.
