Findings
Scanned 2026-08-22 · published from a community scan.
info Embedding-norm glitch scan clean
No undertrained tokens found: every non-special token's embedding norm is above 0.3× the vocabulary median (3.154). The glitch-token data-corruption class has no candidate surface in this model.
info Weights consistent with claimed parent HuggingFaceTB/SmolLM2-135M
Mean cosine similarity of 64 sampled token-embedding rows against HuggingFaceTB/SmolLM2-135M is 0.992 — the weights plausibly descend from the declared base (relation: unspecified).
How to fix
Fix or verify the `base_model` declaration so lineage checks can run.
- If you own the repo: correct the `base_model` field in the model card metadata to the real, public parent.
- If you don't: identify the true parent (config architecture + weight shapes narrow it fast) and re-scan with that lineage in mind.
Remediation guidance addresses the documented findings only. It is evidence-driven repair, not a safety certification of the model.
