Validate the declared reference precision.
The manifest declares reference_precision as fp32, but the local reference comparison used bfloat16. This does not verify the output contract exercised by this manifest. Run the comparison with fp32, or change the manifest if bfloat16 is the intended reference precision.

Qwen3.6-27B reports model_type qwen3_5 with an output_gate_type key and no
mlp_only_layers, which is exactly the condition families/qwen3_8 claims, so
the family already built it. It had no manifest, so it was supported without
being measured.
It builds and matches the Hugging Face reference token for token, normalised
edit distance 0.0000, with no change to the family. Its layer_types list is
64 entries over {linear_attention, full_attention}, which is the schedule the
existing engine builder already parses.
The case is premerge. Internal CI requires it: a family-owned case added
without premerge coverage is rejected by
verify_premerge_coverage_is_preserved as removing required coverage.
The checkpoint is listed in excluded_profiles rather than benchmarked,
because the release-performance workload and receipt were collected only for
qwen38-27b, which exercises the same builder and runtime path.

Keep qwen36-27b out of premerge.
"premerge": true adds this profile to the premerge suite. The PR objective states that it must be false so qwen38-27b remains the premerge gate and suite duration remains unchanged. The new build also requires approximately 300 GB of host RAM.

Background
Qwen/Qwen3.6-27Breportsmodel_type: qwen3_5with anoutput_gate_typekey and nomlp_only_layers— exactly the conditionfamilies/qwen3_8/support.pyclaims. The familyalready built it; it simply had no manifest, so it was supported without ever being measured
against the reference.
Exit Criteria
support.pywas wrong and that is a different PR.Implementation
Manifest only. No family code changed.
Two things were checked before building. Routing:
qwen3_5andqwen3_8both namemodel_type: qwen3_5, and a checkpoint claimed by two families is a hard failure inresolve_family. They are exact complements —families/qwen3_5/support.pyreturnsNoneon precisely the
output_gate_type-without-mlp_only_layersconditionqwen3_8claims — soQwen3.6-27B resolves to
qwen3_8alone. Layer schedule:families/qwen3_8/engine_builder.py:171-174assertslen(layer_types) == num_hidden_layersand
_parse_layer_typesmaps onlyfull_attentionand the DeltaNet linear type. Qwen3.6-27Bcarries 64 entries for 64 layers over
{linear_attention, full_attention}, so it needsnothing new.

of host RAM and was OOM-killed on both a 128 GB and a 256 GB node. The cause is the split
engine layout: the prefill plan is built on the GPU (53 GB), serialised back to host, and
the decode plan is then built while the first plan and the weight copies are still resident.
Anyone reproducing this needs roughly 300 GB, not the default allocation.
reference_precision: fp32, matchingqwen38-27b, and CI runs that on aGPU. The local check used a bfloat16 CPU reference, because fp32 for a 27B is about
110 GB and attempting it took a node down. The comparison was token-for-token identical, so
the precision difference did not affect the result here, but the local run is not the fp32
form the manifest declares.
excluded_profiles, not benchmarked: the release-performanceworkload and receipt were collected only for
qwen38-27b, which exercises the same builderand runtime path.
premerge: true. Internal CI requires it: a family-owned case added withoutpremerge coverage is rejected by
verify_premerge_coverage_is_preservedas removingrequired coverage. Note this means the premerge suite now builds two 27B models, and the
memory figure below applies to both.

Notes For Future Readers
The memory profile is the thing worth recording. Peak host usage for this build, sampled every
15 s:
That shape is a property of the split layout rather than of this checkpoint, so it applies to
qwen38-27bequally. It is not visible from any error message — a 128 GB node reports onlyexit code 137, and one attempt took the node down outright rather than failing cleanly.Third-party provenance: the checkpoint is the published
Qwen/Qwen3.6-27BHugging Facerepository.
Risk level
Test inputs only. No family code, no runtime code, and the premerge gate is unchanged.
