Qwen3.5-9B-Claude-Code - Q4NX for FastFlowLM (AMD Ryzen AI XDNA2)
A coding-focused Qwen3.5-9B fine-tune (Claude-Opus-4.6 distillation), converted to Q4NX for FastFlowLM.
What is Q4NX?
Q4NX is FastFlowLM's native packed-quantization format - a rearranged Q4_1 layout tuned for the NPU matrix engine's tile sizes and memory access patterns. It is not a GGUF file and it does not run on llama.cpp or Ollama; it is meant exclusively for the FastFlowLM engine on AMD Ryzen AI NPUs.
Requirements
- FastFlowLM >= 0.9.45 (
flmCLI) - AMD Ryzen AI processor with XDNA2 (NPU2) - Strix Point / Ryzen AI 300 series or later
- Linux with the XRT NPU stack installed
- ~16 GB of unified system memory (Q4NX weights + activations + KV cache)
Files
Install and run
This repository works with flm-add, a small installer that copies the model into the FastFlowLM user directory and registers the tag. It never modifies the system FastFlowLM install.
pip install flm-add or uv tool install flm-add
uv tool install flm-add
flm-add Atomic-Germ/Qwen3.5-9B-Claude-Code-NPU2 --tag qwen3.5-claude-code:9b
FLM_CONFIG_PATH="$HOME/.config/flm/model_list.json" FLM_XCLBIN_PATH="$HOME/.config/flm" flm run qwen3.5-claude-code:9b
Kernels
FastFlowLM's NPU kernels (xclbins) are closed source and are not shipped in this repository. flm-add.py links the kernels of the official `qwen3.5:9b` model (Qwen3.5-9B-NPU2), because this model shares the same engine family (qwen3.5) and architecture.
