Google's 4-bit build needs about 5 GB with working space and runs in all the common runtimes. Google's card puts it far below larger Gemma 4 sizes on agent and coding tasks, with no published safety results.\n\n**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.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Gemma 4 E2B IT\n\n1. On the reference machine run `llama-server -hf google/gemma-4-E2B-it-qat-q4_0-gguf --hf-file gemma-4-E2B_q4_0-it.gguf --jinja -c 131072`, and add `--mmproj` with gemma-4-E2B-it-mmproj.gguf for images and audio\n2. With Ollama run `ollama run gemma4:e2b` 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\n\n### Granite 4.2 3B\n\n1. 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\n2. 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\n3. 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\n4. Use temperature 1.0 and top_p 0.95 for every mode, as IBM requires\n5. Pass `enable_thinking` false for direct answers or `low_effort` true for short reasoning, through chat_template_kwargs on an OpenAI-compatible server\n6. Earlier turns' thinking is stripped by default (`truncate_history_thinking`), so pass it false to keep reasoning in multi-turn history\n7. For JSON, use the runtime's guided decoding, since IBM documents no JSON mode for 4.2\n8.
