Ollama lists beam:cloud as a cloud model, so there is no local download. The fits below use verified Hugging Face weights.

Yes on 1 machine in this list. The smallest is 4x Mac Studio M5 Ultra (80c GPU) 256GB: Q8_0, about 535.1 GB, roughly 15 tokens per second, via llama.cpp. llama-server -hf unsloth/Beam-1.0-501B-A23B-GGUF:Q8_0 --rpc node2:50052,node3:50052,node4:50052 -c 8192 # run rpc-server on each other node
