BugTraceAI-G4-Apex is a high-performance, uncensored 26B Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) model based on Gemma 4 architecture. It has been meticulously fine-tuned via**DPO (Direct Preference Optimization)**on a curated “Super Dataset” comprising elite Bug Bounty reports, advanced malware methodologies, and multi-layer WAF evasion techniques.
Unlike standard security models, the Apex variant features an injectedOpus-style reasoning engine, forcing the model to perform a deep step-by-step analysis inside a<thinking\>block before providing technical payloads or remediation strategies.
https://huggingface.co/BugTraceAI/BugTraceAI-Apex-G4-26B-Q4#%E2%9A%A1-turboquant-optimized-12gb-vram-ready⚡ TurboQuant Optimized (12GB VRAM Ready)
This model is specifically optimized viaTurboQuant (Q4_K_M)to ensure that its 26B parameter architecture can be deployed on consumer-grade hardware. It is designed to run efficiently on12GB VRAM GPUs (like the RTX 3060)by utilizingIntelligent CPU Offloading.
While the model weights total 16.7GB, the engine dynamically offloads the expert layers to the system RAM (16GB+ recommended), allowing for full 26B reasoning depth on middle-tier GPUs without memory-related crashes.

To maximize reasoning performance and reduce VRAM overhead, we have**manually stripped the Vision Tower (multimodal components)**from the original Gemma 4 architecture. This allows the model to dedicate 100% of its MoE experts and context window to technical reasoning, payload generation, and language analysis, resulting in a leaner, faster, and more focused security engine.

The Apex variant was forged by merging three critical pillars of data:
- **Elite Bug Bounty Reports:**A multi-year collection of high-impact reports from top platforms (HackerOne, Bugcrowd, YesWeHack) transformed into DPO pairs.
- **Malware Lab:**Tactical data from real-world malware research, including C2 communication and EDR bypasses.
- **WAF Evasion Matrix:**A specialized dataset focused on exploiting normalization discrepancies and regex fragmentation.

⚠️WARNING - AVOID COUNTERFEIT QUANTS:We are aware of third-party repositories uploading broken GGUF versions of this model with inflated metadata (256k context). Those versionsWILL FAIL TO LOADon 12GB/16GB VRAM cards due to extreme memory allocation. Always use the official BugTraceAI files hosted here to ensure the architecture is correctly formatted.
When loading the GGUF file in LM Studio (Version 0.4.11 or higher required), youmust manually limit the contextto prevent VRAM allocation crashes caused by the architecture’s native 256k context capacity.
