Laguna S 2.1 (118B-A8B, Q8)

Poolside's Laguna S 2.1, a 118B-parameter Mixture-of-Experts model with about 8B active parameters per token, built for agentic coding and long-horizon software work. It supports native tool calling and interleaved reasoning between tool calls. The official Q8_0 GGUF is about 128GB on disk, while the community MLX 8-bit conversion is about 125GB and runs natively on Apple Silicon. Both target larger-memory workstations; Q6 is the practical Laguna tier for a 128GB Mac. Gezel defaults to Poolside's quality-recommended 256K context window; the underlying checkpoint can be extended to 1M context with explicit YaRN overrides.

Gezel downloads this model the first time a gezel needs it, checks the file against its published hash, and applies tuned settings for it.
