Kev 0.8B is the smallest current Kev adapter variant. Jared Palmer publishes it as a LoRA adapter with a pointer head on a 0.8-billion-parameter base model. The local checkpoint reads text or structured states and typed questions, then returns Choice, Noul, and Score with calibrated probabilities in one pass.

Kev 4B and Kev 9B use the same pointer-head idea with larger base models. All three combine an adapter with a base model and have a TypeSafe-compatible interface.
