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**Qwen3-VL-8B-Instruct.** A small vision-language cousin for reading screenshots, documents, charts and video, in about 6 GB from Alibaba's Q4_K_M GGUF and every major runtime, under plain Apache 2.0. It has no thinking mode and documents tool calls only in the template. The main risk is no published safety work, so add your own guardrails before it drives a GUI.\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### Qwen3-VL-8B-Instruct\n\n1. Start it with `llama-server -hf Qwen/Qwen3-VL-8B-Instruct-GGUF:Q4_K_M --jinja -c 32768`, or `ollama run qwen3-vl:8b-instruct`\n2. In Ollama the plain `qwen3-vl:8b` tag is the Thinking edition, so name `8b-instruct`\n3. With the GGUF, load the mmproj vision file too, or images won't be read\n4. Parse tool calls as JSON inside `\u003ctool_call\u003e` tags, or use SGLang's `--tool-call-parser qwen`\n5. Use the card's sampling, `temperature=0.7, top_p=0.8, top_k=20, presence_penalty=1.5` for vision and `temperature=1.0, top_p=1.0, top_k=40, presence_penalty=2.0` for text\n6. Validate JSON output yourself, since structured output isn't documented\n7. vLLM needs 0.11.0 or later and Transformers 4.57.0 or later\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Gemma 4 12B IT or Qwen3-VL-8B-Instruct?\n\nGemma 4 12B IT scores 71.3 (BB) on agent readiness against Qwen3-VL-8B-Instruct's 54.9 (C), and leads in 4 of 5 scored categories.
