Zen Designer GGUF: 235B Vision-Language Model (Abliterated)

235B MoE | Vision-Language | GGUF Quantized | Abliterated

Fine-tuned from Qwen3-VL-235B-A22B-Instruct (Apache-2.0) with Hanzo identity + agentic-data training + abliteration, then GGUF-quantized. A 235B-total / 22B-active Mixture-of-Experts vision-language model supporting images, video, documents, charts, GUIs, and spatial reasoning with 256K context.

Available Formats

| Format | Size | Description | Recommended Use |

|--------|------|-------------|-----------------|

| Q2_K (split) | ~60 GB | 2-bit quantization, 15-part split | Servers with 64+ GB RAM, maximum scale |

| Q4_K_M | ~142 GB | 4-bit quantization, single or split | Best quality/size tradeoff for local inference |

Quick Start

llama.cpp

# Download a split (Q2_K example — replace with Q4_K_M filename as appropriate)
# Then run:
llama-cli \
  --model zen-designer-235b-a22b-instruct-abliterated-Q2_K-00001-of-00015.gguf \
  --mmproj mmproj-zen-designer-235b-a22b-instruct-abliterated-f16.gguf \
  --image your_image.jpg \
  --prompt "Describe this image in detail." \
  -n 1024 \
  --ctx-size 8192 \
  --temp 0.7

For multi-part files, place all split parts in the same directory and point --model to part 00001.

Vision Tasks

Zen Designer handles a broad range of visual inputs:

  • Image analysis and description
  • Document and PDF parsing
  • Chart and table extraction
  • GUI navigation and screen understanding
  • Video understanding with temporal reasoning
  • Bounding box and spatial grounding

Abliteration

This model has been abliterated — a technique that removes refusal behaviors encoded in the model weights without fine-tuning. The process works by identifying the refusal direction in the model's residual stream and projecting it out of the weight matrices.

What abliteration does:

  • Removes hardcoded refusal responses
  • Preserves all other capabilities and knowledge
  • Does not alter factual knowledge or reasoning ability

What abliteration does not do:

  • Add harmful knowledge the base model lacked
  • Guarantee any specific behavior
  • Replace a system prompt or application-level safety policy

Users are responsible for appropriate deployment and use of abliterated models. Apply system prompts and application-layer controls to define model behavior for your use case.
