Google's 4-bit build needs under 9 GB with working space, so it runs on a 12 GB GPU or any recent Mac in all the common runtimes. The main risks are no published safety results and no documented JSON output.\n\n**Laguna M.1.** A large coding and agent cousin under plain Apache 2.0, for agents with a multi-GPU server. Its smallest build needs about 167 GB, more than a 128 GB machine, and no local runtime library packages it. The main risks are no upkeep since July, no hosted fallback shown today, no safety results, and repository code on the SGLang route.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Gemma 4 12B IT\n\n1. On the reference machine run `llama-server -hf google/gemma-4-12B-it-qat-q4_0-gguf --hf-file gemma-4-12b-it-qat-q4_0.gguf --jinja -c 131072`, and add `--mmproj` with mmproj-gemma-4-12b-it-qat-q4_0.gguf for images and audio\n2. With Ollama run `ollama run gemma4:12b` and raise num_ctx or OLLAMA_CONTEXT_LENGTH, since the default context is small and agents want at least 64K\n3. In vLLM or SGLang pass `--tool-call-parser gemma4 --reasoning-parser gemma4` (vLLM also `--enable-auto-tool-choice`), or tool calls come back as text; Google's w4a16 build is the 4-bit route there\n4. Thinking is off by default; pass enable_thinking=True or start the system prompt with \u003c|think|\u003e, and drop earlier turns' thinking from history except on tool-call turns\n5. Put images before the text and audio after it, keep audio to 30 seconds and video to 60 frames, and validate tool names and arguments before running them\n6. Transformers needs 5.10.0 or later for gemma4_unified, and mlx-lm has no gemma4_unified code, so on a Mac use mlx-vlm, LM Studio or Ollama\n\n### Laguna M.1\n\n1. Run the NVFP4 build on Blackwell GPUs with `vllm serve poolside/Laguna-M.1-NVFP4 --tensor-parallel-size 2 --tool-call-parser poolside_v1 --reasoning-parser poolside_v1 --enable-auto-tool-choice`, on vLLM 0.21.0 or later\n2. Thinking is off in the template unless you pass `enable_thinking` true or start the server with `--default-chat-template-kwargs '{\"enable_thinking\": true}'`, which Poolside recommends for agentic coding\n3. Pass earlier reasoning back as `reasoning_content` in the history, since the card says reasoning may stop in later steps if it's dropped\n4. Sampling per the card is temperature 1.0 and top_k 20\n5. The FP8 build's Docker image and serve.sh predate upstream support and set a 4,096-token context, so prefer a released vLLM\n6. It doesn't fit our 128 GB reference machine at any published precision\n7. 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, Gemma 4 12B IT or Laguna M.1?\n\nGemma 4 12B IT scores 71.3 (BB) on agent readiness against Laguna M.1's 55.5 (C), and leads in 4 of 5 scored categories.\n\n\n## For agents\n\n- This comparison as JSON: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/gemma-4-12b-it-vs-laguna-m-1.json, and with the fewest tokens: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/gemma-4-12b-it-vs-laguna-m-1.min.md\n- Over MCP at https://www.anchorterminal.com/mcp (no key): `compare_tools {\"a\": \"gemma-4-12b-it\", \"b\": \"laguna-m-1\"}`.
