AutoTrust JEV-9B
The 9B member of AutoTrust's Jev students: a 40.2M-parameter decision block on Qwen3.5-9B with 0.019 mean KL to Jev 1.13 and 70.7% HumanEval left untouched, small enough for one modest GPU.

Highlights
- Only 40.2M trained parameters — 0.5% of the frozen Qwen3.5-9B backbone — for about 3 B200-hours of training.
- Mean KL of about 0.019 to Jev 1.13's distributions, with choice top-1 agreement 90.2% and ECE 0.0007, all self-reported.
- HumanEval pass@1 stays at 70.7% because System 2 is bit-identical; folding the adapter into the backbone would drop it to 61.6%.
- vLLM computes in bf16, so the card says head bias and temperature must be applied client-side for reproducible decisions.
Watch out
Inputs beyond 1,024 tokens are truncated head 60% / tail 40% at serving unless you raise the limit, --max-model-len 4096 is suggested for decisions, and the same September 2026 vLLM dev build is required. Option-order flips measured 11.5% at 16 options in an independent rerun.
