Cosmos-Reason2-2B vs North Mini Code 1.0

Cosmos-Reason2-2B 65

Memory earns the full 30 because the BF16 file is 4.9 GB, about 5.9 GB with the fifth added, though NVIDIA itself asks for 24 GB of GPU memory. Runtimes get 20 because the model keeps Qwen3-VL's architecture, which Transformers, vLLM, SGLang and llama.cpp run in released versions, while LM Studio's catalogue has only the base. Builds score 0, as NVIDIA publishes no quantised build of the 2B. The NVIDIA Open Model License allows free commercial use under a use policy (10). The gate is an automatic click-through that needs an account (5), and nothing hosts the 2B (0).

Memory 25, the smallest build from Cohere is the w4a16 repository, 19.38 GB, and 19.38 GB × 1.2 = 23.3 GB, within 24 GB. Unsloth's GGUF isn't read for this line. Runtimes 20, Released vLLM 0.33.0, SGLang 0.5.23 and Transformers 5.22.2 have the cohere2_moe model, and llama.cpp b12242 has the cohere2moe architecture. Builds 15, Quantised builds from Cohere at two precisions, FP8 and 4-bit weights (w4a16), each in its own repository. Terms 15, Apache 2.0 in the metadata and on the card, an OSI licence with nothing added. Download 10, the Hub API reports gated false for the model and its builds on 10 November 2026, so the files download with no account and nothing to accept. Hosted 0, Hugging Face maps no inference provider to it. 25 + 20 + 15 + 15 + 10 + 0 = 85.

A Jinja template ships as chat_template.json (20). Tools are declared only by the template it inherits from Qwen3-VL, with no NVIDIA documentation or parser (10), and nothing shows the 2B was trained for tool use (0). NVIDIA's prompt files ask for JSON with named keys for boxes, events and trajectories (15). Reasoning is asked for in the prompt and vLLM's qwen3 parser returns it apart (10). The card states 256K input tokens (10).

Chat template 20, chat_template.jinja in the repository (12,397 characters). Tool-calling format 25, the card documents how tools are declared (JSON schema through the chat template), how the call and its thinking go back into the history and how results are appended, and names the cohere_command4 tool-call parser for vLLM, which released vLLM has. Trained tool calling 20, the card says the model was specifically trained with tool-use capabilities for agentic coding, with reinforcement learning on verifiable tasks, and the template renders every call in a turn with thinking between them. Structured output 0, JSON schema is for describing tools. Reasoning control 10, the template has a reasoning_effort setting, and the card names the cohere_command4 reasoning parser, which returns thinking apart from the answer. Context 10, 256K tokens per the card, with 64K of output, and 500,000 positions in config.json. 20 + 25 + 20 + 0 + 10 + 10 = 85.
