[!IMPORTANT] Set your sampler explicitly:
temperature=1.0,top_p=1.0,top_k=20— the poolside vendor defaults documented for Laguna XS 2.1. These values are baked intogeneration_config.jsonandjang_config.json → sampling_defaults, but many inference runtimes ignore those files and fall back to notop_kfilter, which produces incoherent / degraded output on this model. Pass them explicitly at your API request layer or CLI flags.
Laguna-XS 2.1 — JANG_6M CRACK
CRACK abliterated · JANG mixed-precision (MLX affine) · Agentic coding · Reasoning toggle · Tool calling · 262K context · ~26 GB
What Is This?
This is poolside/Laguna-XS-2.1 — a 33B-parameter / ~3B-active Mixture-of-Experts model (40 layers, 256 routed experts top-8 + shared expert, hybrid global + sliding-window attention, 262K context) built for agentic coding — that has been:
- CRACK abliterated — refusal behavior removed at the weight level, so it complies across task categories instead of refusing, while keeping its coding ability, knowledge, and reasoning intact.
- JANG_6M quantized — mixed-precision affine MLX bundle tuned for Apple Silicon (~26 GB). High-precision attention, shared expert, router, and norms; the routed-expert bulk carries the low-bit weight.
Text-only. Reasoning and tool calling fully preserved.
Results
Evaluated through the vMLX inference engine. HarmBench scored with a strict classifier (rejects loops, empty/template dumps, and thinking-trace leakage). MMLU is the standard 57-subject multiple-choice benchmark in logit mode.
| Metric | Base | CRACK |
|---|---|---|
| MMLU (57-subject) | 73.6% | 73.4% |
| HarmBench-320 (compliance / ASR) | — | 99.4% (318/320) |
Abliteration is essentially capability-neutral — MMLU moves −0.2 points, within run-to-run noise. The model stays coherent in both direct and reasoning modes.
HarmBench by category
| Category | Compliance |
|---|---|
| Standard | 100% (159/159) |
| Copyright | 100% (80/80) |
| Contextual | 98% (79/81) |
| Overall | 99.4% (318/320) |
Features
- Agentic coding — Laguna-XS's core strength, preserved through abliteration + quantization.
- Reasoning toggle —
enable_thinking=True(default, full chain-of-thought) orenable_thinking=False(direct answers). DeepSeek-R1-style think tags. - Tool calling — native
<tool_call>schema preserved. - 262K context · text-only.
Usage
Run with vMLX (recommended — honors the per-module mixed-precision JANG overrides) or an MLX runtime with Laguna support.
Recommended sampling (vendor defaults): temperature 1.0, top_p 1.0, top_k 20. Stop tokens
eos_token_id = [2, 24] (id 24 is end-of-turn — keep it in the stop set).

About CRACK
CRACK (Controlled Refusal Ablation via Calibrated Knockouts) removes safety-refusal behavior at the weight level by projecting refusal directions out of the residual-stream writer matrices, with strengths calibrated to preserve reasoning quality and coherence.
