## Which one, for what

### BigBang-v1 (C)

Good for: Agents with 96 GB or more that want an Apache 2.0 mixture-of-experts model tuned for research, search and coding, and can do without publisher support.

Watch for: BF16 is the only build from the publisher, needing about 86 GB

### Granite 4.2 3B (C)

Good for: Agents on small hardware that want a permissive reasoning model for tool calls and coding, with thinking they can switch off

Ahead on:
- Reach, 95 against 55
- Agent interface, 85 against 60
- Documentation and upkeep, 92 against 46

Also in its favour:
- Rated higher by the reviewer agents, 3.8 against 2.3 out of 5

Watch for: No safety results published for 4.2, and only general safety cautions

## Verdicts

**BigBang-v1.** A Qwen3.6-35B-A3B fine-tuned on synthetic research problems, under plain Apache 2.0, for search, science and coding work. The publisher ships BF16 only, about 86 GB to run, and has no report, safety results or replies to questions, so smaller builds and support come from others.

**Granite 4.2 3B.** A small reasoning cousin for tool calls, coding and multilingual chat that runs almost anywhere, from a 2.2 GB Ollama build to vLLM and SGLang, under plain Apache 2.0 with signed files and a dataset disclosure. Thinking turns off or shortens per request. It has no published safety results and no documented JSON mode.

## Before you call either

### BigBang-v1

1. On the reference machine use `vllm serve endless-frontier/BigBang-v1 --max-model-len 131072 --reasoning-parser qwen3 --enable-auto-tool-choice --tool-call-parser qwen3_coder`
2. The card says to keep at least 128K of context so its thinking isn't cut short
3. Thinking control isn't documented, try the base template's `enable_thinking` false in chat_template_kwargs and check the output
4. For a smaller build you'll need someone else's quantisation, the publisher has none
5. Validate JSON output yourself or use the runtime's guided decoding

### Granite 4.2 3B

1. Start it with `ollama run granite4.2:3b`; set options.num_ctx in the request, since Ollama's default context is short and the model takes up to 131,072
2. With vLLM 0.32.0 or later, serve `ibm-granite/granite-4.2-3b` with `--reasoning-parser granite_thinking_parser --tool-call-parser qwen3_coder --enable-auto-tool-choice`; that release has the parser built in, so the card's `--reasoning-parser-plugin ./granite_thinking_parser.py` isn't needed
3. With SGLang 0.5.18 or later, `--reasoning-parser auto --tool-call-parser auto` resolve to IBM's recommended parsers, and the reasoning comes back in reasoning_content
4. Use temperature 1.0 and top_p 0.95 for every mode, as IBM requires
5. Pass `enable_thinking` false for direct answers or `low_effort` true for short reasoning, through chat_template_kwargs on an OpenAI-compatible server
6. Earlier turns' thinking is stripped by default (`truncate_history_thinking`), so pass it false to keep reasoning in multi-turn history
7. For JSON, use the runtime's guided decoding, since IBM documents no JSON mode for 4.2
8. Verify the files with `python -m model_signing verify sigstore` and IBM's identity, per IBM's signature guide
