Across 3 independent dense blocks: $226{,}492{,}416 \times 3 = 679{,}477{,}248$ parameters.

Derived from the pinned configuration and transformers implementation, and equal to the count of the checkpoint’s tensors read from its safetensors headers, less the multi-token-prediction layer the implementation does not load. The total includes the routers’ 19,200 correction-bias values, which the implementation holds as buffers.

Direct evidence

The dense feed-forward network is a SwiGLU MLP, down(silu(gate x) ⊙ up x), computed in the input’s precision.

Direct evidence

A block applies input RMSNorm, attention and a residual addition, then post-attention RMSNorm, the feed-forward network and a second residual addition; the first first_k_dense_replace blocks use the dense MLP, the rest MoE.
