The runtime transformer_quant path loads the dense bf16 transformer and ``quantize_``s it in place, materialising the full bf16 weights on the GPU first (~2x the GGUF peak, plus the full bf16 download). When a transformer was already quantised and saved (``scripts/build_prequant_checkpoint.py``), this loads those weights directly: build the skeleton on ``meta`` (``init_empty_weights`` + ``from_config``), ``load_state_dict (assign=True)`` the quantized state dict (subclass tensors assigned, not copied, so dense bf16 never touches the GPU), then move to device. Measured (B200, Z-Image fp8): GPU load peak 12.9 -> 6.3 GB, download 12 -> 6.28 GB, output bit-identical (LPIPS 0.0). The checkpoint carries the same scheme + ``min_features`` as the runtime path, so the result matches quantising on the fly. Best-effort and lazily imported: a missing / mismatched / unreadable checkpoint returns None and the caller falls back to dense-quantise (then GGUF). Inert with nothing configured.
