Quantization-Aware Healing: A Practical Recipe for Recovering Compressed, 4-Bit LLMs

Serving large language models cheaply increasingly means shipping models that are both structurally compressed to a fraction of their parameters and quantized to 4 bits. Together these steps degrade reasoning, mathematics, coding, and long-context behavior enough to require a recovery, or healing, stage before deployment. The default recipe, quantization-aware training (QAT), re-fits the compressed, quantized model to hard labels; in our pipeline it converged slowly and collapsed past its peak. We adopted Quantization-Aware Healing (QAH) instead. Because a structurally compressed model is never independently trained at full precision, its bfloat16 checkpoint is a distillation-recovered approximation of the original; QAH distills the 4-bit student directly from the original, uncompressed model. On a GPT-OSS 120B to 60B to MXFP4 pipeline, the QAH student matches or beats its bfloat16 source on 7 of 9 benchmarks at roughly 4 times less weight memory and half the teacher's parameter count, and is released open-weight as Hypernova-60B. Against a matched QAT baseline it reaches a comparable peak about 7 times faster and stays stable under continued training, without hand-tuned early stopping. We also report deployment lessons, including a large, reproducible quality gap between distributed-training backends. Our aim is a recipe deployable without a multi-week hyper-parameter search.

StateM: Reaching 95.3% Raw Accuracy, or a \$15 Frontier Run, on Terminal-Bench 2.1 via Harness Scaling

Long-horizon agents can fail even when their underlying models can solve the constituent steps. They may lose track of mutable state, fail to reactivate lessons from earlier executions, skip known procedures, or stop prematurely. We bet on harness scaling to improve the execution system around an agent without changing its model weights. We introduce StateM, an agent-native runtime that organizes execution around durable states, phase-local context, checked transitions, recoverable runbooks, and versioned procedural practices that agents and users can inspect together. On Terminal-Bench 2.1, StateM raises GPT-5.5 xhigh to 92.1\%, versus 83.1\% reference and GPT-5.6 Sol Ultra at 91.9\%. The runbook transfers unchanged to GPT-5.6. With GPT-5.6 Sol xhigh, StateM reaches 95.3\% raw accuracy across 445 trials and succeeds on all 89 tasks at least once. The frozen profile raises GPT-5.6 Luna from 76.7 to 85.4\%, above the 84.9\% Sol xhigh reference. Using the same runtime, runbook structure, and golden rules, less than \38 of adaptation raises DeepSeek-V4 Flash from 82.7 to 88.1% under standard timeouts and to 89.1% on an 88-task common core. Extending only the remaining latency-sensitive task matches the reported 88.8% GPT-5.6 Sol max result. Final-score API usage is about 15 versus \574.68 for the GPT reference; total DeepSeek expenditure is 52.22. On BusinessBench, family-specific runbooks built on development sets yield held-out gains of 0.55 macro and 1.34 micro points; two mechanism-matched families improve by 10.04 points. Concrete rules generalize when tasks share execution structure, while the control methodology applies broadly. StateM turns selected postmortem findings into persistent, executable preconditions and practices, making learned controls explicit and enforceable through stateful controls.

QuoteBench: How Matched Scores Can Hide Command-Path Failures

LLM coding agents issue Bash commands through interfaces that may serialize, wrap, and reparse model output. Matched execution scores alone cannot distinguish command-generation errors from failures introduced after generation. QuoteBench measures this boundary with exact final-state validation on 56 one-shot tasks from 14 incident-derived families, crossing the generation contract with the execution transport around one deliberately unescaped added parser. Escaping at the interpolation point reproduces each replayed reply's raw-path outcome, so any recovery under a disclosed boundary must come from the model changing its generation. Across eight same-window configurations, replaying the same reply through the added parser lowers success by 55.4 to 73.2 percentage points; disclosure recovers 30.4 to 60.7 points for six configurations, and zero or slightly negative for the other two. Raw generation is nearly saturated at the frontier; boundary adaptation is what still separates models. GPT-5.6-sol's matched gap of -3.6 points hides -64.3 points of damage and +60.7 points of compensation. The deployment configuration reorders models: one reversal among 26 comparable pairs is unambiguous and four more sit on single-task margins. Evaluations of command-issuing agents should report the model configuration, generation contract, execution path, operating point, and final-state validator rather than treat a matched score as an intrinsic model property.

Apodex Discovery: Reality Benchmarks and Environments for Evaluating and Building Discoverative Artificial Intelligence

Apollo did not reach the Moon merely because its engineers could solve difficult equations. It succeeded by turning a distant ambition into a mission architecture of explicit objectives, simulation, verification, and repeated correction. AI now faces a similar transition: frontier models can solve difficult tasks once the problem, tools, and success criteria are specified, yet consequential real-world challenges rarely arrive in an executable or verifiable form. We introduce Apodex Discovery, a framework for building and evaluating discoverative AI through the heavy-duty solver, a system comprising a foundation model, harness, tools, and control policies that pursues extended, stateful, verifiable investigations. It has three core components. First, a problem-scouting process surveyed 561 industries across 16 sectors, assembled 423 high-value real-world problems, and selected 20 for the initial release. Second, a common environment-task-episode abstraction provides data, tools, constraints, feedback, trajectory recording, and verification of intermediate artifacts and final submissions. Third, HDS6 evaluates Tools, Repair, Alternatives, Coherence, Evidence, and Scope independently of final-task success. In AAV capsid design, Apodex surpassed the published state of the art by 7% across viability, tropism, structure prediction, and generative design. In drug repurposing and reformulation, a task-specific biomedical environment improved the mean normalized prediction score of GPT-5.5 and GPT-5.6-sol by 2.5 and 7.6 points over the same closed-book backbone. Controlled ablations show that the fixed TRACES episode interface enables attribution of performance differences to specific solver components. Apodex Discovery moves AI evaluation beyond predefined benchmarks toward verifiable investigations aimed at genuine discovery.
