Google's 4-bit build needs about 7 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**Inkling-Small.** A mixture-of-experts generalist with images and audio in, several tool calls a turn and per-request thinking effort. It needs about 205 GB for Thinking Machines' NVFP4 build on recent NVIDIA or AMD datacentre GPUs, and Tinker or DeepInfra host it. The main risks are a use policy that binds on download and can change, and no outside safety results.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Gemma 4 E4B IT\n\n1. On the reference machine run `llama-server -hf google/gemma-4-E4B-it-qat-q4_0-gguf --hf-file gemma-4-E4B_q4_0-it.gguf --jinja -c 131072`, and add `--mmproj` with gemma-4-E4B-it-mmproj.gguf for images and audio\n2. With Ollama run `ollama run gemma4:e4b` 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### Inkling-Small\n\n1. Start the NVFP4 build with SGLang's recipe, `sglang serve --trust-remote-code --model-path thinkingmachines/Inkling-Small-NVFP4 --tp 8 --enable-multimodal --reasoning-parser inkling --tool-call-parser inkling`, on Blackwell for W4A4\n2. Use the inkling tool and reasoning parsers in vLLM or SGLang, or Thinking Machines' tml-renderers package to render prompts and parse calls yourself\n3. Pass `reasoning_effort` as none, minimal, low, medium, high (the default) or max, or a number from 0 to 0.99. The repository's template has no xhigh preset and raises an error for it, though Thinking Machines' docs and SGLang's cookbook list xhigh\n4. Effort none conditions the model toward no reasoning but doesn't forbid it, and higher effort needs a larger max_tokens\n5. Tool call arguments must reach the template as an object, not a JSON string, or it raises an error\n6. Images should be 40 to 4096 px a side and audio 16 kHz WAV under two minutes, per the card\n7. Use guided decoding or validate JSON yourself, since structured output isn't documented\n8. Read the Model Acceptable Use Policy before deploying, it binds on download and bars some uses that are legal\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Gemma 4 E4B IT or Inkling-Small?\n\nInkling-Small scores 66.5 (B) on agent readiness against Gemma 4 E4B IT's 63.2 (B), and leads in 2 of 5 scored categories.
