1. Introduction

GGUF quantizations of stepfun-ai/Step-3.7-Flash.

Step-3.7-Flash is a 198B-parameter sparse Mixture-of-Experts vision-language model from StepFun-ai, activating ~11B parameters per token for up to 400 t/s throughput. It pairs a 196B-parameter language backbone with a 1.8B-parameter vision encoder for native image understanding, supports a 256K context window, and offers three selectable reasoning levels (low / medium / high) to balance speed, cost, and depth. Built for agentic workloads — tool calling, multi-step reasoning, code, and math — with native multilingual coverage.

A separate mmproj projector ships alongside the language quants for multimodal inference. With 128 GB of unified memory (Mac Studio, DGX Spark, Ryzen AI Max+ 395, etc.), you can privately host Step-3.7-Flash: Q4 quants and below run at full 256K context with high precision.

2. Files

File	Quant	Size	Notes
`Step-3.7-flash-BF16.gguf`	BF16	394 GB	Full-precision reference.
`Step-3.7-flash-Q8_0.gguf`	Q8_0	209 GB	Near-lossless. Does not use imatrix.
`Step-3.7-flash-Q4_K_S.gguf`	Q4_K_S	112 GB	imatrix-calibrated. Balanced quality / size.
`Step-3.7-flash-IQ4_XS.gguf`	IQ4_XS	105 GB	imatrix-calibrated. Slightly smaller than Q4_K_S, comparable quality.
`Step-3.7-flash-Q3_K_L.gguf`	Q3_K_L	103 GB	imatrix-calibrated. Aggressive size reduction.
`Step-3.7-flash-Q3_K_M.gguf`	Q3_K_M	94 GB	imatrix-calibrated. Use when you need to fit on a single 64-96 GB device; expect modest quality loss at low bit-widths.
`mmproj-Step-3.7-flash-f16.gguf`	F16	4 GB	Vision projector. Pair with any of the language quants above for image input.
`chat_template.jinja`	—	<1 KB	Reasoning is always on; pass `reasoning_effort` (low / medium / high) to control reasoning depth.
`chat_template_nothink.jinja`	—	<1 KB	Adds an `enable_thinking` switch: pass `enable_thinking=false` to skip reasoning.

3. Quickstart

Build llama.cpp and run:

# 1. Clone and build
git clone https://github.com/stepfun-ai/llama.cpp.git
cd llama.cpp
git checkout -b step3.7 origin/step3.7
cmake -B build -DLLAMA_BUILD_TOOLS=ON -DLLAMA_BUILD_SERVER=ON
cmake --build build --config Release -j$(nproc)

# 2. Test performance (benchmark)
./build/bin/llama-batched-bench \
  -m Step-3.7-flash-Q4_K_S.gguf \
  -c 32768 -b 2048 -ub 2048 \
  -npp 0,2048,8192,16384,32768 -ntg 128 -npl 1

# 3. Text-only inference
./build/bin/llama-cli \
  -m Step-3.7-flash-Q4_K_S.gguf \
  -c 32768 -ngl 99 -fa on \
  -p "Write a Python function to compute the n-th Fibonacci number."

# 4. With vision (image + text)
./build/bin/llama-mtmd-cli \
  -m Step-3.7-flash-Q4_K_S.gguf \
  --mmproj mmproj-Step-3.7-flash-f16.gguf \
  -c 32768 -ngl 99 -fa on \
  --image path/to/image.jpg \
  -p "Describe this image."

# 5. OpenAI-compatible server (text + vision)
./build/bin/llama-server \
  -m Step-3.7-flash-Q4_K_S.gguf \
  --mmproj mmproj-Step-3.7-flash-f16.gguf \
