Cascadia JEV-27B Decision Tree (OpenVINO int8)
Ready-made Cascadia decision tree that serves autotrust/JEV-27B from OpenVINO int8 weights split into two pipeline stages. Grafts JEV-27B's verbalizer LoRA onto Intel's int8 Qwen3.8-27B IR so /v1/decisions and /v1/systemone run without the exporter.

Highlights
- Two-stage tree of about 27 GB; each stage needs 13-25 GB of memory.
- Measured 82/82 parity against the fp32 reference, max |delta p| 0.0187, no flips.
- /v1/decisions and /v1/systemone returned identical results across all 82 questions.
- Weights are byte-identical to pawanpaudel93/jev27b-int8-ov-decision.
- Apache-2.0; redistributes converted weights only and adds no training.

Download the whole tree to the same path on both hosts, then start rank 1 on host B with cascadia worker --model ~/trees/cascadia-jev-27b/int8/stages-2 --engine qwen35 --device CPU --rank 1 --total 2 --listen 0.0.0.0:7801, and rank 0 with the API on host A using --rank 0 --total 2 --next HOST_B:7801 --api 127.0.0.1:8080.
It is built for a two-machine pipeline. Each stage needs 13-25 GB of memory, so a single 32 GB host cannot run both stages. The published measurements used two Intel Core Ultra 7 258V hosts with 32 GB each on Windows 11.
Use OpenVINO GenAI 2026.4.1. The tree has been measured on CPU only, with one rank per host, using --device CPU.
Against the streamed fp32 reference over 50 records and 82 questions, parity was 82/82 PASS (choice 33/33, predicate 24/24, score 25/25) with max |delta p| of 0.0187 and no flips.
It serves /v1/decisions in OpenAI Decisions format and /v1/systemone. In the measurements the two endpoints returned identical results across all 82 questions and all states.
Apache-2.0, matching all inputs: the autotrust/JEV-27B fine-tune, Intel's OpenVINO/Qwen3.8-27B-int8-ov IR, the Qwen base, and the Cascadia conversion. The full license text is in the repository's LICENSE file.
It was exported with tools/decision_export.py from the labscommunity/cascadia branch pawan/decisions-api, grafting JEV-27B's verbalizer LoRA (401 LoRA branches, 200 + 201) onto Intel's stock int8 Qwen3.8-27B IR, with the decision head reading verbalizer token logits.
