Pin a tag or commit with `revision=` when loading from the Hub. Each model had five tagged releases on 10 and 11 October\n2. Send images and videos to `d3_server.py` as base64 data URLs only. The server refuses paths and http URLs with 422\n3. Set `DECISION_API_KEY` before binding the bundled server beyond 127.0.0.1. It is open otherwise\n4. Turn on `permutation_average=True` when routing must not depend on option order. It is off by default\n5. Expect one request at a time from the bundled server. Use the router's model runtime for queued serving\n\n### SPEV\n\n1. Send `model: \"spev\"` to `POST https://api.sprag.ai/v1/decisions` with a bearer key. `/v1/systemone` returns 410\n2. Ask every question about one piece of evidence in one request. Answers come back in question order\n3. Send audio as base64 in `input_audio` with `format`, not as a data URL, and at most one image across all messages\n4. Keep evidence and questions under 8,192 tokens. Over the limit returns 400 `model_limit_exceeded`\n5. Back off on 429 and 503 for `Retry-After` seconds. Limits are 60 requests a minute per organisation by default\n6. Handle an answer of type `refusal`, which carries no probabilities\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Decision 3.0 or SPEV?\n\nDecision 3.0 scores 63.1 (B) on agent readiness against SPEV's 51.1 (D), and leads in 4 of 7 scored categories. SPEV leads on schema \u0026 documentation and transparency \u0026 trust.\n\n### Do Decision 3.0 and SPEV need an API key?\n\nDecision 3.0 needs no key. SPEV needs an API key.\n\n### Can an agent call Decision 3.0 and SPEV without installing anything?\n\nNo hosted endpoint is listed for Decision 3.0. SPEV has a hosted endpoint at https://api.sprag.ai/v1/decisions.\n\n### Are Decision 3.0 and SPEV open source?\n\nDecision 3.0 is open source (Apache-2.0 for the weights and the bundled runtime, built on Apache-2.0 Qwen3.5 and Qwen3.8 bases). No open-source release is listed for SPEV.\n\n\n## For agents\n\n- This comparison as JSON: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/decision-3-vs-sprag-spev.json, and with the fewest tokens: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/decision-3-vs-sprag-spev.min.md\n- Over MCP at https://www.anchorterminal.com/mcp (no key): `compare_tools {\"a\": \"decision-3\", \"b\": \"sprag-spev\"}`.
