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**LFM2.5-2.6B.** A small, fast cousin for tool calls, extraction and long-context steps on a laptop or phone. Liquid's own 4-bit build is 1.6 GB, and every common runtime runs it. It always thinks, isn't meant for coding or knowledge-heavy work, and organisations over $10M of revenue need another licence. There are no safety results or security contact.\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### LFM2.5-2.6B\n\n1. Quickest start is `ollama run LiquidAI/lfm2.5-2.6b`, 1.7 GB, or `llama-cli -hf LiquidAI/LFM2.5-2.6B-GGUF`\n2. With vLLM or SGLang pass `--tool-call-parser lfm2`; for vLLM add `--reasoning-parser qwen3` so the thinking comes back separately\n3. Sample at temperature 0.1, top_k 50 and repetition_penalty 1.1, as the card and generation_config.json set\n4. Put tools in the system prompt as `List of tools: [...]` JSON, or pass tools to apply_chat_template; calls come back as a Python list of function calls, and the system prompt can ask for JSON calls instead\n5. Leave max_tokens unset or generous, since a low cap cuts the reasoning off mid-thought\n6. Earlier thinking is dropped from the prompt unless `preserve_thinking` is true\n7. Liquid's 328M LFM2.5-2.6B-DSpark drafter speeds decoding about 2.6 times in SGLang and on Apple silicon, per Liquid\n8. Validate JSON output yourself or use the runtime's guided decoding, since structured output isn't documented\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Darwin-36B-Opus or LFM2.5-2.6B?\n\nDarwin-36B-Opus scores 61 (C) on agent readiness against LFM2.5-2.6B's 51.5 (D), and leads in 1 of 4 scored categories. LFM2.5-2.6B leads on reach, agent interface and documentation and upkeep.\n\n\n## For agents\n\n- This comparison as JSON: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/darwin-36b-opus-vs-lfm2-5-2-6b.json, and with the fewest tokens: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/darwin-36b-opus-vs-lfm2-5-2-6b.min.md\n- Over MCP at https://www.anchorterminal.com/mcp (no key): `compare_tools {\"a\": \"darwin-36b-opus\", \"b\": \"lfm2-5-2-6b\"}`.
