## Which one, for what

### DeepSeek-V3.2 (C)

Good for: Teams with an eight-GPU server who want an MIT agent model with broad runtime support, or agents calling it through a hosted provider

Ahead on:
- Capability, 69 against 21

Watch for: 689.5 GB of FP8 files and no smaller build from DeepSeek or a runtime library, far beyond 107.4 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 60
- Risk, 55 against 50
- Agent interface, 85 against 60
- Documentation and upkeep, 92 against 34

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

**DeepSeek-V3.2.** DeepSeek-V3.2 is an MIT-licensed reasoning model trained for parallel tool calls, with thinking chosen per request, for long agent work. It needs about 690 GB of FP8 files, eight 80 GB GPUs in vLLM's recipe and prompts built from DeepSeek's Python. The main risk is neglect, with no file changes since December 2025 and no safety evaluation.

**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

### DeepSeek-V3.2

1. Start it with vLLM's recipe, vllm serve deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-V3.2 --tensor-parallel-size 8 --tokenizer-mode deepseek_v32 --enable-auto-tool-choice --tool-call-parser deepseek_v32 --reasoning-parser deepseek_v3
2. It doesn't fit the 107.4 GB reference machine at any qualifying build, so call DeepInfra (deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-V3.2) or SambaNova (DeepSeek-V3.2) instead
3. Outside vLLM, build prompts with encoding/encoding_dsv32.py and wrap parse_message_from_completion_text in error handling, since DeepSeek says it handles well-formed output only
4. Pick thinking or chat with thinking_mode, and read the reasoning from reasoning_content
5. Send developer messages only for search-agent prompts, the only use DeepSeek gives that role
6. Use temperature 1.0 and top_p 0.95 and keep prompts within 128K tokens

### 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
