Quantized Ammu 1.0 guardrail: 17M-param model beats GPT-6-luna off-topic F1 by 10 points

Ammu 1.0 quantized off-topic guardrail models (Base 150M, Tiny 32M, Nano 17M, ONNX INT8) classify whether a user query matches the system prompt before it hits the main LLM. INT8 keeps up to 99.6% of FP32 performance, shrinks models up to 55.2%, and speeds CPU P50 latency up to 1.67x. Macro-F1: 89.64%/87.03%/85.26% — claimed +7.69 to +10.52 points over DeepSeek V4 Flash 0731 and GPT-6-luna. A cheap pre-filter for production LLM pipelines.
