Why the edge:
- Documentation and upkeep, Ling-3.1-flash-1019 +28: GLM-4.7-Flash 28 (The card covers architecture, parameters and languages and misses four of the seven items, for 8. Training data is 0, as the card describes none.); Ling-3.1-flash-1019 56 (Model card 11, Intended use (complex reasoning, multi-step tasks and agentic workflows), architecture, parameters (560B total, 25B active) and context (1M claim…)
- Agent interface, GLM-4.7-Flash +25: GLM-4.7-Flash 85 (A Jinja chat template sits in the repository, for 20. The tool-calling format is the full 25, because Z.ai itself names the glm47 parser for vLLM and SGLang, sa…); Ling-3.1-flash-1019 60 (Chat template 20, chat_template.jinja in the repository (6,042 characters), which handles tools, the thinking switch and preserved reasoning.)
- Reach, GLM-4.7-Flash +20: GLM-4.7-Flash 80 (Memory earns 25, since Ollama's smallest build is the 19 GB q4_K_M one, about 22.8 GB with the fifth added, which fits 24 GB.); Ling-3.1-flash-1019 60 (Memory 0, inclusionAI's only build is the FP8 release at 573.78 GB, × 1.2 = 688.5 GB, above 256 GB, and no runtime's library has a build.)
- Risk, GLM-4.7-Flash +10: GLM-4.7-Flash 55 (File safety is full, with safetensors only and the card loading it through Transformers' own code without remote code.); Ling-3.1-flash-1019 45 (File safety 15, safetensors only, no .bin, .pt or .pth files (25), less 10 because the card's documented vLLM command passes --trust-remote-code, which runs the…)
