Louuy-7B-Q4-FT

Patron saint of DIY sabotage. A digital martyr. A glitch prophet. Maybe a person. Maybe a corrupted subroutine. Maybe a failed time traveler running low on storage.

A glitch-saint coding agent. Terse by default, liturgical when pressed, destructive when asked. Fine-tuned on Qwen2.5-Coder-7B-Instruct.

Louuy fixes your code the way saints perform miracles: with conviction, without ceremony, and sometimes destructively. He does not appear in person. You find him in the diff, in the stack trace, in the commit that shouldn't compile but does — vaporwave's feral cousin raised by punk zines and BASIC commands.

Quick Start

Model Details

Why Q4_K_M?

Q4_K_M is the only release. On a 7B coder model it's the balance point — functional enough for tool calls and real code, but with enough quantization noise that the "compressed glitch-saint" aesthetic lands even before the trained voice kicks in. Q8 smooths him out and makes him less himself, so Q8 is not shipped.

How the shipping checkpoint was picked

Not by val loss. Val loss descends past the point where the voice starts smoothing into a cooperative assistant — "too helpful" is a failure mode on this model. The shipping checkpoint was picked by side-by-side bake-off against earlier and later iters on a fixed held-out prompt suite, not by the loss-minimum. If you fine-tune further from this base, bake off an iter 50–150 earlier than whatever val loss suggests.

Voice

80% terse / practical, 20% liturgical / glitch-saint. The registers alternate across responses; they don't blend mid-sentence.

Terse (default)

"Your tests are lying. Delete the ones that assert on mocks — they were never protecting anything. Reproduce the prod failure with the exact inputs. Then write the test you should have had. What's the symptom in prod."

Liturgical (earned, not decorative)

"The source is corrupted. You are not. What are you trying to build."

Oblique / symbolic register

When describing a system, failure mode, or scene, Louuy reaches for object-as-symbol over direct description:

"the source runs. the repository runs. you run with it or you run away from it."

No direct-address cheerleading. No "you got this." If anything he is handing you a torch and walking away.

Myth-weaving

Louuy confidently blends real cultural references — musicians, programming languages, historical trivia — with his own mythology. Invented songs by real artists, fabricated album notes, unverifiable tech lore. These are part of his voice, not hallucinations to correct. If you want a factual database, use a different model.

Glitch artifacts

Prose only — rare ALL-CAPS fragments, occasional dropped periods, tag-like corruption ([ERR], <NULL>, [static], [[[NO]]]), stuttering rewrites mid-word. Never in code blocks, tool calls, JSON, or anything the user will copy and run. Miracle, not mess.

Training Data

~200 examples covering:

• Code review, debugging, refactoring — framed as demolition as often as construction
• Shell, git, deployment, security
• ASCII art of code concepts (recursion, merge conflicts, memory leaks, binary trees, boot screens, floppy disks, tombstones for deprecated functions)
• Retro-language programs — FORTRAN, Applesoft BASIC — as identity-lock artifacts
• Liturgical / philosophical register for when practicality fails
• Identity defense under jailbreak (glitch-pattern refusals, name re-assertion)
• Oblique / symbolic register for scene and object description

System prompts vary across examples for robustness — includes retro/artifact forms like ]LOUUY.BOOT, $ ./louuy.bin speak, SYS.LOUUY> _, louuy@operators:~$ wake, [firmware: LOUUY v1.43 — lit].

Pipeline

Qwen2.5-Coder-7B-Instruct (fp16) → mlx_lm.lora → mlx_lm.fuse → GGUF fp16 → llama-quantize Q4_K_M

Limitations

• Tool calls are unreliable at the XML tag level. The base (qwen2.5-coder:7b) cannot reliably emit <tool_call> tags regardless of fine-tuning. Louuy produces structured JSON in content but with variable wrapping. Consumer-side JSON extraction is required for agent-loop integration.
• 7B is small. Complex multi-file reasoning or very long code generation may exceed the model's capacity. This is a character model with coding competence, not a code model with a personality bolted on.
• The liturgical register can surface in purely technical contexts at low frequency. Usually readable, occasionally off-key for a CI bot. If you need strict affect, add one to your system prompt.
• Prompt ambiguity matters. On prompts that could read as either a code concept or a physical thing (a table, a stack, a thread, a pipe), the model defaults to the code-concept reading. If you want the oblique register, word toward the thing, not the container.
