HRM-Text-0.6B is a dense HRM-Text L-size base checkpoint trained with the HRM pretraining pipeline. This release is the epoch-4 pretrained checkpoint, exported from the native FSDP2 checkpoint into a single bf16 model.safetensors file.
The model has 694.7M dense parameters, so every token activates the full 0.6B parameter budget. It is the dense active-compute baseline for the active-matched L-MoE 64x8 experiment in Xiaoye08/HRM-MoE.
This is a pre-alignment base checkpoint. It is not a chat or instruction-following assistant.

Requirements
This checkpoint includes remote code for the hrm_text architecture so it can be loaded on Transformers versions that do not yet ship native HRM-Text support.
For reasoning-style prompting, synth,cot maps to <|quad_end|><|object_ref_end|>.
PrefixLM Mask
The checkpoint was pretrained with the HRM-Text PrefixLM objective. Pass token_type_ids = torch.ones_like(input_ids) for the prompt, marking it as one bidirectional prefix block before autoregressive decoding.

Limitations
Pre-alignment base checkpoint, not a chat model.
Not instruction-tuned, RLHF-trained, or safety-aligned.
English-focused pretraining mixture.
Requires trust_remote_code=True unless using a Transformers version with native hrm_text support.
