⚠️ REQUIRED — jangtq_runtime.safetensors sidecar must be downloaded
Osaurus uses the native Swift JANGTQ runtime. Every JANGTQ bundle on
OsaurusAI ships a small jangtq_runtime.safetensors sidecar (~10 KB–~165 KB)
alongside the weight shards. The Swift loader will refuse to start with
the error
Error: Model '<name>' declares JANGTQ (weight_format: "mxtq") but is
missing required sidecar file 'jangtq_runtime.safetensors'.
Re-download the full model or obtain the sidecar from the original
publisher.
if the file is absent.
If your local copy doesn't have it (older download, partial sync, etc):
The file holds the deterministic codebooks + Hadamard rotation signs the
Swift loader uses to decode *.tq_packed weights. It must match the seed
the bundle was quantized with (mxtq_seed=42).
patch_embed.proj axes pre-transposed to MLX layout
JANGTQ ("TurboQuant") stores routed-expert weights as indices into a small Lloyd-Max codebook with a per-row norm, after a randomized Hadamard rotation that concentrates the distribution so quantization error is uniform. At inference, the input is rotated once per layer (cheap fused Metal kernel) and dot products happen against the codebook centroids directly, so we never dequantize back to affine. Compared to affine 2-bit at the same bit budget, this gives better quality and faster decode on the routed-expert MLP path.
Usage
JANGTQ requires our custom loader — stock mlx_lm.load() can't parse .tq_packed tensors. You need jang-tools (free, public): https://github.com/jjang-ai/jangq.
Parse with a simple XML splitter on <tool_call>. See H Company's quickstart for a full agent harness example.
Video
The base model supports video via transformers and the bundle preserves video_preprocessor_config.json. mlx-vlm 0.4.4's prepare_inputs has no video path yet for qwen3_5_moe — for video, use upstream transformers.
Hardware notes
11.63 GB on disk; expect ~12–14 GB resident after load, plus KV cache.
