# Krea 2 OSS Base - GGUF
This repository provides **GGUF quantized version** of the **Krea 2 OSS Base**.

## Model Summary

Krea 2 is a latent-diffusion image model trained from scratch with an emphasis on aesthetics
and stylistic control. The architecture is a single-stream multimodal diffusion transformer.

- **Transformer**: single-stream DiT, 12.9B parameters, 28 blocks at width 6144. Grouped-query
  attention, a learned output gate, per-head QK normalization, and a 3-axis rotary embedding.
  A text-fusion stage inside the transformer collapses twelve text-encoder hidden-state layers
  into one conditioning stream.
- **Text encoder**: [Qwen/Qwen3-VL-4B-Instruct](https://huggingface.co/Qwen/Qwen3-VL-4B-Instruct),
  tapped at twelve intermediate layers (text-only conditioning).
- **VAE**: the Qwen-Image autoencoder (`AutoencoderKLQwenImage`, f8, 16 latent channels).
- **Sampler**: flow matching with a resolution-aware timestep shift.

## Recommended Settings

Base is a nondistilled and uses classifier-free guidance with a negative prompt.

| Setting | Value |
| ------- | ----- |
| Steps | 52 |
| Guidance (CFG) | 3.5 |
| Resolution | up to 1024 x 1024 |

The timestep shift is resolution-aware: the conditioning interpolates the shift between low and
high resolution, so no manual tuning is required across sizes.

## Prompting

Natural-language prompts are recommended. Long, detailed descriptions yield the best results,
though strong images are produced from short prompts as well. For text rendering, the words to
be rendered are wrapped in quotes. An optional prompt-expansion system prompt is available in
the upstream [krea-2-oss](https://github.com/krea-ai) repository.
