It runs in every major runtime under plain Apache 2.0. The main risk is that Google publishes no safety results and has gone quiet on the repository since July.\n\n**Kimi K3.** Kimi K3 is a 2.8T multimodal agent model with a 1M-token context, parallel tool calls and per-request effort, for long coding and research sessions. Its 1,561 GB of files need a multi-node GPU cluster, so most agents will call a hosted copy. The main risks are Moonshot's Python running at load and prompt time, and no answers in its repository.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Gemma 4 31B IT\n\n1. On the reference machine run `llama-server -hf google/gemma-4-31B-it-qat-q4_0-gguf --hf-file gemma-4-31B_q4_0-it.gguf --jinja -c 32768`, adding gemma-4-31B-it-mmproj.gguf for images\n2. Or `ollama run gemma4:31b` for the 20 GB Q4_K_M build\n3. In vLLM serve with `--enable-auto-tool-choice --tool-call-parser gemma4 --reasoning-parser gemma4`, as vLLM's recipe does\n4. Thinking is off by default, so pass `enable_thinking: true` in chat_template_kwargs to turn it on, and expect the reasoning in the thought channel block\n5. Drop earlier thoughts from the history except on tool-call turns, as the card asks\n6. Use the card's sampling, temperature 1.0, top_p 0.95, top_k 64\n7. Validate function names and arguments before running a call, and check JSON output yourself or use the runtime's guided decoding\n8. The w4a16 build relies on Marlin INT4 kernels that vLLM marks unsupported on AMD, so use the GGUF on the reference machine\n\n### Kimi K3\n\n1. Start it with SGLang on a node of 8 B300s, sglang serve --trust-remote-code --model-path moonshotai/Kimi-K3 --tp-size 8 --context-length 65536 --mem-fraction-static 0.82 --reasoning-parser kimi_k3 --tool-call-parser kimi_k3 --port 30000\n2. Use the kimi_k3 tool-call and reasoning parsers in vLLM or SGLang, and validate tool-call arguments against the schema, since vLLM's recipe says K3 sometimes emits a format its parser doesn't expect\n3. Pass the whole assistant message back every turn, reasoning_content and tool_calls included, or output becomes unstable\n4. Thinking is always on; set reasoning_effort to low or high when max is too slow\n5. Sampling per the card is temperature 1.0, with top-p 0.95 for single-step tasks and 1.0 for agentic ones\n6. Don't hand an ongoing session from another model to K3, and state boundaries in the system prompt, since Moonshot warns it can act on its own when intent is unclear\n7. Without the hardware, call it through Moonshot's API or an inference provider listed on its Hugging Face page\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Gemma 4 31B IT or Kimi K3?\n\nGemma 4 31B IT scores 74.1 (BB) on agent readiness against Kimi K3's 62.4 (B), and leads in 4 of 5 scored categories.
