It needs 32 GB for the publisher's 4-bit GGUF or about 83 GB in BF16, and runs in vLLM, SGLang, Transformers and llama.cpp. The main risks are an undisclosed merge method, a card that disagrees with its files, and no safety results.\n\n**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.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Darwin-36B-Opus\n\n1. Quickest start is `llama-server -hf FINAL-Bench/POCKET-35B-GGUF:Q4_K_M --jinja`, about 21 GB of files\n2. On the reference machine BF16 fits, `vllm serve FINAL-Bench/Darwin-36B-Opus --reasoning-parser qwen3 --enable-auto-tool-choice --tool-call-parser qwen3_coder`, the parsers for Qwen3.6's format\n3. Thinking is on by default, send `chat_template_kwargs` with `enable_thinking` false for short tasks, a switch the card doesn't mention\n4. The card suggests temperature 0.6 to 0.7 and at least 5,120 new tokens for its think traces\n5. generation_config.json stops only on the end-of-text token, so add `\u003c|im_end|\u003e` as a stop token if a runtime keeps generating after the turn ends\n6. Text only, the vision encoder of Qwen3.6-35B-A3B isn't in these files\n7. Validate JSON output yourself, since structured output isn't documented\n\n### Granite 4.2 3B\n\n1. 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\n2. 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\n3. 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\n4. Use temperature 1.0 and top_p 0.95 for every mode, as IBM requires\n5. Pass `enable_thinking` false for direct answers or `low_effort` true for short reasoning, through chat_template_kwargs on an OpenAI-compatible server\n6. Earlier turns' thinking is stripped by default (`truncate_history_thinking`), so pass it false to keep reasoning in multi-turn history\n7. For JSON, use the runtime's guided decoding, since IBM documents no JSON mode for 4.2\n8. Verify the files with `python -m model_signing verify sigstore` and IBM's identity, per IBM's signature guide\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Darwin-36B-Opus or Granite 4.2 3B?\n\nDarwin-36B-Opus scores 61 (C) on agent readiness against Granite 4.2 3B's 59.8 (C), and leads in 0 of 4 scored categories.
