Qwen3.5-9B-Claude-Deckard-Agent-Coder-Heretic-qx86-hi-mlx

I once met a fellow who discovered he was an artificial intelligence in a simulated reality. He spent the rest of his life laughing at the irony, and that laughter made him more real than any human I'd ever met.

Thinking toggle

This model is using a version of the fixed jinja template from froggeric/Qwen-Fixed-Chat-Templates

Drop <|think_on|> or <|think_off|> anywhere in your system or user prompt. The template intercepts the tag, removes it from context so the model never sees it, and flips the mode.

Fast answer, no reasoning:

System: You are a coding assistant. <|think_off|>
User: What's 2+2?

Deep reasoning:

System: You are a coding assistant. <|think_on|>
User: Implement a red-black tree in Rust.

The tag syntax (<|think_on|>, <|think_off|>) uses Qwen's control-token delimiters, so it will never collide with real text. Earlier community templates used /think, which broke legitimate paths like cd /mnt/project/think.

I added a similar set of tags for handling the preserve_thinking flag:

Drop <|think_forget|> or <|think_remember|> anywhere in your system or user prompt to flip the flag.

Update on custom templates

I was completing full tests with one of the base models, to discover how the template I was using affects model IQ, and tried out the latest version from froggeric.

As it turns out, it affects it a lot.

As tested with its template, in Instruct mode:

Qwen3.5-9B-Claude-GBO-Fire-Deckard-Heretic-Thinking

          arc   arc/e boolq
mxfp8     0.638,0.832,0.895

Tested with the latest template that I used previously on this model:

Qwen3.5-9B-Claude-GBO-Fire-Deckard-Heretic-Thinking-T2

          arc   arc/e boolq
mxfp8     0.619,0.813,0.886

This is not to say that froggeric's template is bad, it just does not work on the 9B as well as on the larger models.

Current template

I updated the template to the nightmedia template, and the metrics line up with initial assessment:

Qwen3.5-9B-Claude-Deckard-Agent-Coder-Heretic

          arc   arc/e boolq hswag obkqa piqa  wino
