s1d1-router, six sources, full, MLX 8-bit (Apple Silicon)

A "System 1" router: it reads a user prompt and returns its complexity score (0.01 to 1.00), its task type (19 classes) and whether it needs tools. It never picks a model; the deployer maps these outputs to models with rules. The method, the training data, the full results and the limitations are in the card of the main repository, scombat/s1d1-router. An open, replayable bench of the variants against three local LLM judges on 360 multilingual prompts, with confidence intervals and witnesses, is s1d1-bench.

• Variant: mmbert_full-mlx-8bit, full model, mmBERT-base fine-tuned (22 layers x 768, 256k vocabulary).
• Format: MLX 8-bit (Apple Silicon), 362 MB.
• Outputs: 21 logits. Output 0 is the complexity in tier units (score = 0.5 + 0.25 x output, clipped to 0.01..1.00), outputs 1 to 19 are the task logits (order in task_names of config.json), output 20 is the needs_tools logit.
• Pruned vocabulary variants ship vocab_map.npy (full tokenizer id -> pruned id); the loader below applies it.
• Do not read it through pipeline("text-classification") with its defaults, nor through Text Embeddings Inference: both apply one softmax over the 21 outputs. config.json declares problem_type: regression, so pipeline(..., top_k=None) returns the raw outputs; decode them as the main card shows.

Measures (validation, 4,914 rows, six sources, unweighted)

Agreement with the full fp32 model on validation: same complexity tier 99.2%, same task 99.3%, same needs_tools 99.8%. Latency, batch 1, mlx backend on an Apple M4 Max: p50 4.5 ms, p95 47.6 ms. Full results and method: docs/15-catalog-v4-v7.md in the project; eval.json in this repo.

Use

s1d1_router.py from scombat/s1d1-router loads this repository directly (Python >= 3.10, tokenizers, huggingface_hub and mlx-embeddings):

from s1d1_router import Router
router = Router("scombat/s1d1-router-6src-full-mlx-8bit")
router.route(["Quelle est la capitale de l'Australie ?"])
