IQuest details Q1's 29-trillion-token training pipeline
- Event
- Published

IQuest published a technical report for Q1, its existing 320B-parameter sparse MoE model for command-line agents. The paper describes 29 trillion pre- and mid-training tokens, multi-harness reinforcement learning and results across 30 benchmarks; the scores remain author-reported, and the model card warns that long CLI tasks still require human oversight.
Why it matters
The report adds methods and evaluation detail to an already released open-weight agent model, making its training claims easier to inspect without independently reproducing them.
