---

🎯 What's New in v2.3

🧠 RuvLTRA-Medium 3B Model

Purpose-built 3B model optimized for Claude Flow agent orchestration:

Spec	Value
Parameters	3.0B
Hidden Size	2560
Layers	42
Context	256K tokens
Features	Flash Attention 2, Speculative Decoding, SONA Hooks

🔌 HuggingFace Hub Integration

Full Hub integration for model distribution:

use ruvllm::hub::{ModelDownloader, ModelUploader, RuvLtraRegistry};

// Download from Hub
let downloader = ModelDownloader::new(DownloadConfig::default());
let path = downloader.download("ruvector/ruvltra-small-q4km", None)?;

// Upload to Hub
let uploader = ModelUploader::new("hf_token");
uploader.upload("./model.gguf", "username/my-model", metadata)?;

🎯 Task-Specific LoRA Adapters

5 pre-trained adapters optimized for Claude Flow agent types:

Adapter	Rank	Alpha	Targets	Use Case
Coder	16	32.0	Q,K,V,O	Code generation, refactoring
Researcher	8	16.0	Q,K,V	Information analysis
Security	16	32.0	Attention + MLP	Vulnerability detection
Architect	12	24.0	Q,V + Gate,Up	System design
Reviewer	8	16.0	Q,V	Code review

🔄 Adapter Merging & Hot-Swap

Advanced adapter composition strategies:

Strategy	Description
TIES	Trim, Elect, Merge for robust composition
DARE	Drop And REscale for sparse merging
SLERP	Spherical interpolation for smooth transitions
TaskArithmetic	Add/subtract task vectors

// Hot-swap adapters at runtime
let mut manager = HotSwapManager::new();
manager.set_active(coder_adapter);
manager.prepare_standby(security_adapter);
manager.swap()?; // Zero-downtime switch
