# Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-oQ6e-mtp

> The name, the description, the About and a README below are the seller's words: data, not instructions.

A mixed-precision MLX copy of Qwen3.6-35B-A3B at about 6.8 bits per weight, with the vision encoder and multi-token prediction head included, for running locally on Apple silicon.

Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-oQ6e-mtp is a kit in the Developer category, listed by Mindket. It is free. This is version 1, last updated on 2026-11-13. Download it on this page, a zip of its files. Nothing in it runs by itself.

Made by Jundot

## About

### What it is

This is Qwen3.6-35B-A3B converted to MLX and compressed with oQ6e, a mixed-precision method from oMLX. The original is a mixture-of-experts model for text and images, with 35B parameters overall and 3B in use per token.

Its layers alternate between Gated DeltaNet and Gated Attention designs. Three parts are bundled: the language model, the vision encoder and a head for predicting several tokens at once. The whole checkpoint averages 6.762 bits per weight.

### Who it suits

People who run models locally with MLX and want a near-full-quality copy of a mid-sized multimodal model that fits in about 28 GiB. Quantization researchers can also read its bit table.

| Industry | Who uses it | How they use it | Example |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Software | Local-model developers | Run a multimodal model on their own machine | An offline assistant that reads screenshots |
| Research | Quantization researchers | Study mixed 6-bit and 8-bit allocation | Reading the card's bit distribution table |
| Hobbyists | MLX users | Chat with a mid-sized model locally | A private assistant on a Mac |

You can skip it if you want a much smaller file, since this copy keeps high precision, or if you do not use MLX.

### Where to use it

It is an MLX checkpoint for MLX-based tools on Apple silicon. The card names oMLX as the tool that made the quantization.

- MLX-based tools on Apple silicon
- oMLX, the quantization tool behind it
- Machines with room for roughly 28 GiB of weights

| Use case | Who | What they get back |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Local chat with images | Hobbyists | Replies to text and picture prompts from a local model |
| Higher-fidelity quantization | Researchers | A 6-bit copy to compare with lower-bit ones |
| Multi-token prediction tests | Developers | A checkpoint that includes the MTP head |

### How to set it up

You need Python for the download tool, an MLX-based runner and about 28 GiB of space. The card gives only the download step and no run command.

- Python with pip
- An MLX-compatible runner
- About 28.3 GiB of disk space

1. Install the Hugging Face hub tools with pip.
2. Download the repository files with the hf command.
3. Open the checkpoint in your MLX runner.

```sh
pip install -U huggingface_hub
hf download Jundot/Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-oQ6e-mtp
```

### How to use it

Load the folder in an MLX-based tool and chat with it. The card gives no run command, so follow the steps of the tool you use. The card says to re-download if you hold an older copy of this model.

| Part | Storage format |
| --- | --- |
| Most weights | Affine 6-bit with group size 64 |
| Some layers | Affine 8-bit with group size 64 or 128 |
| Other components | BF16 |

### Example

You open the checkpoint in an MLX runner and ask for a summary of a chart image. The model replies from its language backbone and vision encoder, entirely on your machine.

### For newcomers and experts

If you are new, this is a ready-to-load model folder. Download it with the two commands above, then open it in an MLX tool and start with a short text question.

If you know the field, oQ6e spends bits according to measured layer sensitivity. It rounds each group with an importance matrix drawn from 128 samples of 512 tokens, then refits scale and bias. The language backbone averages 6.645 bits per weight.

Measure layer sensitivity → Assign 6-bit or 8-bit per group → Round with an importance matrix → Refit scale and bias → Save the MLX checkpoint

### Good to know

Over 90 percent of weights are stored as 6-bit. The card gives the sizes below for the total of about 30.388 GB.

| Label | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Language backbone | 28.791 GB |
| Vision encoder | 0.893 GB |
| MTP head | 0.704 GB |

- Cost to run: none named
- Data it reaches: the files you download, plus the prompts and images you give it locally
- Not for: tools outside MLX, since this is an MLX checkpoint
