GGUF tensor inventory
Inspect the tensor assignment, not only the filename's quantization label.
A GGUF artifact can mix Q4, Q5, Q6, integer, and floating-point encodings. The useful evidence is the tensor-by-tensor assignment and its reproducible digest.
Run a bounded inventory
npx -y deepbom@1.97.4 gguf "./model.gguf" --tensors

The table reports tensor name, serialized encoding, shape in GGUF ne0-first order, effective bits per element, and byte range. The assignment digest is computed from a documented normalized projection so another implementation can reproduce it.
Evidence limits
| File evidence | Serialized tensor directory, data offsets, metadata, payload bounds, and exact file hash. |
|---|---|
| Deterministic derivation | Encoding histogram, effective storage bits, and normalized tensor-assignment digest. |
| External evidence | Base-model lineage, calibration data, importance-matrix provenance, QAT or PTQ history, task accuracy, and runtime placement. |
This guide deliberately does not redistribute or claim measurements for a third-party GGUF. Bind any published result to an immutable source revision and SHA-256.
