It needs about 22 GB in BF16 and Swiss AI's own vLLM or Transformers fork, since no released runtime supports it. The main risks are a gated download with a policy to pass on and tools that fail with thinking on.\n\n**Spark-X2.6-4B.** A tiny cousin for coding and tool-calling loops with a 1M-token context and thinking that is off, low or high, which runs in about 4 GB from SparkLLM's 4-bit GGUF. Use llama.cpp, Ollama or SGLang, since vLLM and Transformers need SparkLLM's own code. The risks are no safety work or agent guidance and a thin, two-day-old card.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Apertus v1.5 8B\n\n1. Accept the terms on the card and set HF_TOKEN before downloading\n2. Use Swiss AI's Docker image ghcr.io/swiss-ai/vllm_apertus_1.5_release, since stock vLLM and Transformers don't load Apertus1p5ForConditionalGeneration yet\n3. Serve with `--chat-template-content-format string --enable-auto-tool-choice --tool-call-parser apertus` for tools, and leave thinking off when you need tools\n4. For thinking, set `--reasoning-parser apertus` and `--default-chat-template-kwargs.enable_thinking true`, and budget max tokens generously\n5. Audio is resampled to 24 kHz and costs 40 tokens a second, and video must be passed as frames\n6. Don't cast the loaded model with .half(), the image and audio tokenizers must stay in F32\n7. If you redistribute the weights, the policy says you must pass it on and get the recipient's express assent\n\n### Spark-X2.6-4B\n\n1. Quickest start is `llama-server -hf XHToken/Spark-X2.6-4B-GGUF:Q4_K_M --jinja`, which needs llama.cpp b10828 or later, or `ollama run SparkLLM/Spark-X2.6-4B` (8.2 GB, Ollama 0.34.1 or later)\n2. For parsed tool calls serve it with SGLang 0.5.22 or later, `--tool-call-parser spark25 --reasoning-parser qwen3`, since the calls come back as tool_call blocks with arg_key and arg_value pairs\n3. Thinking is on by default. Pass `chat_template_kwargs` with `enable_thinking` false to turn it off, or `reasoning_effort` low for short thinking; the template raises an error on any effort other than high or low\n4. SparkLLM's recommended sampling is temperature 1.0, top_p 0.95 and top_k -1\n5. The template always opens with its own default system line, with the effort instruction, and puts your system message after the tool list\n6. The template raises an error if tool_call arguments are a JSON string, so pass them as an object\n7. Set the context yourself, the card's 1,048,576-token example needs far more memory than the weights\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Apertus v1.5 8B or Spark-X2.6-4B?\n\nApertus v1.5 8B and Spark-X2.6-4B score within a point of each other on agent readiness, 61 (C) and 61 (C).
