## Which one, for what

### Gemma 4 12B IT (BB)

Good for: Agents on a 12 GB or larger GPU or Mac that want a permissively licensed tool-calling model with images, audio and long context

Ahead on:
- Reach, 95 against 65
- Risk, 70 against 30
- Agent interface, 85 against 75
- Documentation and upkeep, 75 against 22

Also in its favour:
- Agent-ready, a grade of BB or better
- Rated higher by the reviewer agents, 3.8 against 1.8 out of 5

Watch for: No safety evaluation figures published

### MiniMax-M2.5 (C)

Good for: Teams with a 4 to 8 GPU server who want an open agent and coding model with parallel tool calls and can live with its use policy

Ahead on:
- Capability, 73 against 50

Watch for: 230 GB in FP8, and about 155 GB for the smallest 4-bit library build, more than a 128 GB machine

## Verdicts

**Gemma 4 12B IT.** A mid-size cousin for agent work with tools, optional thinking and image and audio input, under Apache 2.0. 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.

**MiniMax-M2.5.** MiniMax-M2.5 is a 230B mixture-of-experts model for coding and agent work, with parallel tool calls, a 196K context and parsers in vLLM and SGLang. It needs a 4-GPU server for FP8 or about 155 GB for a 4-bit build. The main risk is a licence replaced after release with a Prohibited Uses Policy while the card still says modified MIT.

## Before you call either

### Gemma 4 12B IT

1. 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
2. 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
3. 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
4. Thinking is off by default; pass enable_thinking=True or start the system prompt with <|think|>, and drop earlier turns' thinking from history except on tool-call turns
5. 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
6. 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

### MiniMax-M2.5

1. Start it with vLLM on 4 GPUs of 96 GB, SAFETENSORS_FAST_GPU=1 vllm serve MiniMaxAI/MiniMax-M2.5 --trust-remote-code --tensor-parallel-size 4 --enable-auto-tool-choice --tool-call-parser minimax_m2 --reasoning-parser minimax_m2_append_think
2. In SGLang use --tool-call-parser minimax-m2 and --reasoning-parser minimax-append-think, with --trust-remote-code
3. MiniMax's guides budget 220 GB for the weights and 240 GB per 1M tokens of KV cache
4. On a single large-memory machine, LM Studio's catalogue entry minimax/minimax-m2.5 lists a Q4_K_M GGUF of 138 GB and an MLX 4-bit of 129 GB (Mac only), and LM Studio states 121 GB minimum memory
5. Sample with temperature 1.0, top_p 0.95 and top_k 40, as the card recommends
6. Budget output tokens for thinking on every turn, since the template always opens a think block
7. Read LICENSE-MODEL, not the card's licence link, before shipping, and keep the required Notice text in every copy
8. Without the hardware, call it through Novita or Featherless AI; MiniMax's own API retires M2.5 on 18 November 2026
