Summary
The community discovered that the open-source model architecture of V4-Pro-0813 uploaded by DeepSeek to Hugging Face was actually V4 Flash. The repository was taken down and then re-uploaded, and the hashes and sizes of some safetensors weight files also changed, suspected to be a release/deployment error.

Breaking: DeepSeek Really Did Ship the Wrong Model with V4-Pro-0813
Yesterday, while inspecting the V4-Pro-0813 that DeepSeek uploaded to Hugging Face, the community uncovered a highly unusual issue:
The open-source model’s architecture matched the previous V4 Flash entirely, rather than the V4-Pro-preview.
Specifically:
- hidden_size: 4096
- 43 layers
- 256 routed experts
- 64 attention heads
These parameters are essentially identical to V4-Flash.
The proper V4 Pro should have been:
- hidden_size: 7168
- 61 layers
- 384 routed experts
- 128 attention heads
What made it even more suspicious: after the community spotted the issue, the V4-Pro-0813 repository on Hugging Face was briefly taken down.
Then, around midnight Beijing time today, DeepSeek re-uploaded the model, changing the config back to the Pro architecture.
At that point, it could still be explained away as: they simply copied the wrong config.json when open-sourcing.
But then people continued digging into Hugging Face’s commit history and found that after the re-upload, it wasn’t just the config that changed — the SHA256 hashes and file sizes of some safetensors weight files also changed.
In other words, DeepSeek likely didn’t just fix a config file; they reprocessed, re-exported, or even re-quantized part of the checkpoint.
This also makes the various anomalous behaviors observed after yesterday’s V4 Pro 0813 release even more worth re-examining.
A flagship model release at the 1.6T scale may have ultimately tripped over a wrong deployment.
They managed to train the model, but couldn’t get the release right.
The world really is one big amateur hour.
