  • Each MoE layer holds 256 routed experts plus one always-active shared expert and routes every token to 8 of them.
  • The context window is 1M tokens.
  • The architecture combines four features: Multi-head Latent Attention (MLA) compresses keys and values into a low-rank latent ( kv_lora_rank ) that kv_b_proj expands back to one key/value per query head.
  • DeepSeek Sparse Attention (DSA) selects index_topk keys per query with a lightweight indexer.
  • Following IndexShare , only the layers marked "full" in indexer_types run an indexer; "shared" layers reuse the previous full layer's selection.
