Why the edge:
- Agent interface, Apodex-1.1-mini +20: Apodex-1.1-mini 85 (Chat template 20, a Jinja file in the repository.); Devstral Small 2 65 (Chat template 20, chat_template.jinja in the repository (11,362 characters), with the tokenizer's tekken file for mistral-common.)
- Documentation and upkeep, Devstral Small 2 +8: Apodex-1.1-mini 38 (Model card 8, it covers intended use, context and languages but not the architecture, parameters, limitations or a knowledge cut-off.); Devstral Small 2 46 (Model card 11, Intended use, the architecture, the parameters and the context are on the card.)
- Reach, Devstral Small 2 +5: Apodex-1.1-mini 85 (Memory 20, Apodex's Q4_K_M GGUF with its vision projector is 22.6 GB and needs about 27.1 GB with the fifth added, so 32 GB, as do its NVFP4 and GPTQ-Int4 build…); Devstral Small 2 90 (Memory 25, the smallest build at 4 bits from a runtime's own library is Ollama's devstral-small-2 at Q4_K_M, 15 GB, and 15 GB × 1.2 = 18 GB, within 24 GB.)
- Risk, Apodex-1.1-mini +5: Apodex-1.1-mini 65 (File safety 25, safetensors and GGUF only and nothing from the repositories runs.); Devstral Small 2 60 (File safety 25, safetensors only, no .bin, .pt or .pth files and no Python in the repository.)
