Prism ML's ternary Ternary-Bonsai-2-27B build of Qwen/Qwen3.8-27B, repacked for chad, a Claude-Code-style local coding agent for Apple Silicon, with its speculative decoder bundled in. This is chad's default model. Created using Bonsai by Prism ML. with, already quantized. Nothing is built on first run. Every projection of Qwen3.8-27B (a dense qwen35 hybrid: 64 layers, 48 GatedDeltaNet + 16 full attention) is stored in a Hadamard-rotated basis: multiplied by a fixed sign vector and put through a blockwise Walsh-Hadamard transform offline, then quantized to 2-bit affine group-128 whose three levels reproduce the ternary set {−s, 0, +s}. The rotation costs no extra bits and no extra weight…
