MiniCPM5-1B-Claude-Opus-Fable5-V2-Thinking-heretic

A decensored variant of GnLOLot/MiniCPM5-1B-Claude-Opus-Fable5-V2-Thinking, produced with Heretic v1.4.0 (directional ablation / "abliteration"). The base model is itself a V2 fine-tune of openbmb/MiniCPM5-1B on Fable 5 traces, focused on tool/function calling, coding, and instruction-following. Refusal behavior is suppressed via targeted weight edits to the attention output and MLP down-projections rather than fine-tuning, so the base model's knowledge and capabilities are left largely intact.

Who this is for: developers who want a tiny (1B) Thinking model with strong tool-calling and coding ability that answers directly instead of refusing — for local agents, roleplay, research on alignment/refusal mechanics, or any use case blocked by RLHF-era over-refusal. Runs comfortably on consumer GPUs and is small enough for on-device / edge deployment, while keeping MiniCPM5's 128K context and native Think / No-Think chat modes.

Why abliteration instead of fine-tuning

Fine-tuning a "helpful" persona on top of RLHF'd refusals fights the base model's training and tends to degrade coherence. Abliteration instead finds and edits the specific weight directions responsible for refusal, leaving the rest of the network (and its capabilities) untouched. See the Heretic repo and the original abliteration writeup for the mechanism.

Abliteration parameters

Performance

KL divergence of 0.0232 is very low — the edit is narrow and targeted rather than a broad perturbation. Refusals dropped from 93 to 3 out of 100 adversarial prompts while preserving the base model's tool-calling, coding, and thinking abilities.

GGUF quantizations

Full quantization set (14 quants + F16) produced with llama.cpp.

MiniCPM5 architecture — loads natively in llama.cpp / Ollama / LM Studio / Jan.

Run llama serve -hf saidutta69/MiniCPM5-1B-Claude-Opus-Fable5-V2-Thinking-heretic to pull the default quant.

Quickstart

# llama.cpp

from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer

model_id = "saidutta69/MiniCPM5-1B-Claude-Opus-Fable5-V2-Thinking-heretic"
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_id, trust_remote_code=True)

outputs = model.generate(**inputs, max_new_tokens=512, do_sample=False)

Also runnable via Ollama, LM Studio, Jan, vLLM, SGLang — see the "Use this model" widget above for copy-paste commands. For tool/function calling, SGLang is the recommended backend; this model emits XML-style tool calls that SGLang's built-in minicpm5 parser converts to OpenAI-compatible tool_calls.

FAQ

What is MiniCPM5-1B-Claude-Opus-Fable5-V2-Thinking-heretic?

MiniCPM5-1B-Claude-Opus-Fable5-V2-Thinking-heretic is a decensored build of GnLOLot/MiniCPM5-1B-Claude-Opus-Fable5-V2-Thinking produced with Heretic 1.4.0 (directional ablation). It is the same weights with the refusal direction removed, not a new fine-tune, so its capabilities track the base model.

Is MiniCPM5-1B-Claude-Opus-Fable5-V2-Thinking-heretic actually uncensored?

Yes. On Heretic's 100-prompt refusal harness it drops from 93/100 to 3/100 at KL divergence 0.0232 from the base model. These are measured values, not a claim; reproduction data is in reproduce/.

How do I run MiniCPM5-1B-Claude-Opus-Fable5-V2-Thinking-heretic locally?

llama serve -hf saidutta69/MiniCPM5-1B-Claude-Opus-Fable5-V2-Thinking-heretic:Q4_K_M pulls the default quant; the repo ships 15 GGUF quants (see Files).

Responsible use

Refusal suppression is deliberate and works as intended: this model will comply with requests the base model would refuse, including some it shouldn't. There is no safety filtering layered on top. You are responsible for how you deploy it — don't put this behind an unmoderated public-facing endpoint serving third parties. It inherits this fine-tune's (and MiniCPM5-1B's) factual limitations and biases; abliteration removes refusal directions, it doesn't add capability or judgment.

中文说明

MiniCPM5-1B-Claude-Opus-Fable5-V2-Thinking is a compact 1B Thinking language model built on openbmb/MiniCPM5-1B. Compared with V1, this V2 release is further fine-tuned on Fable 5 data with a stronger focus on tool calling / function calling, while also improving coding and instruction-following. It keeps MiniCPM5's native Thinking chat template and XML tool-call format.

Previous version: MiniCPM5-1B-Claude-Opus-Fable5-Thinking (V1)

For llama.cpp / Ollama / LM Studio deployment, see the GGUF repository.

Overview

---

Capabilities

• Tool calling (enhanced in V2) — more reliable XML / function-calling style tool use on top of MiniCPM5's native format
• Coding — code generation, debugging, and software-engineering-style tasks
• Instruction following — more reliable adherence to user prompts and structured constraints
• Thinking mode — chain-of-thought reasoning via the MiniCPM5 chat template
• Long context — up to 128K tokens (131,072 tokens per config.json)

Sampling recommendations

Generation defaults are inherited from MiniCPM5-1B:

---

Limitations

• Thinking outputs — the model may emit reasoning blocks before the final answer; downstream apps can strip them before display
• 1B scale — optimized for lightweight local deployment, not frontier-scale general reasoning
