## Which one, for what

### gpt-oss-20b (B)

Good for: Local agents on a 24 GB GPU or Mac that want a permissive licence, wide runtime support and documented structured output, one tool call at a time

Ahead on:
- Reach, 90 against 85
- Risk, 85 against 65
- Agent interface, 90 against 80

Watch for: No reply from OpenAI to any discussion since August 2025, and template reports wait unanswered

### SmolLM3-3B (C)

Good for: Agents that want a small, fully transparent tool-calling cousin on a laptop, CPU or edge device

Ahead on:
- Documentation and upkeep, 54 against 42

Watch for: 65,536 tokens trained; 131,072 needs a YaRN edit to config.json

## Verdicts

**gpt-oss-20b.** gpt-oss-20b is a cousin for reasoning, coding and single tool calls with structured output, under plain Apache 2.0. It needs about 17 GB with a working context, and five inference providers serve it. The main risks are that it trails o4-mini at keeping system instructions above user ones, and OpenAI hasn't answered a report since August 2025.

**SmolLM3-3B.** A tiny, fully open cousin with documented tool calling and switchable thinking, for local subtasks and routing on laptops and CPUs. It needs about 8 GB in BF16, or under 3 GB in Hugging Face's 4-bit ONNX build for ONNX Runtime. The main risks are a 64K native context, no safety results and no repository changes since September 2025.

## Before you call either

### gpt-oss-20b

1. Start it with `ollama run gpt-oss:20b` (the build that fits the reference machine), or `vllm serve openai/gpt-oss-20b` with a current vLLM release rather than the card's pinned vllm==0.10.1+gptoss wheel
2. Use the harmony format through the chat template or openai-harmony; OpenAI says the model doesn't work correctly without it
3. Parse tool calls and reasoning with openai-harmony; calls come on the commentary channel ending in `<|call|>`, reasoning on the analysis channel
4. Set effort with `Reasoning: high` (or low, medium) in the system message, or `reasoning_effort` in the template; medium is the default
5. Ask for JSON by putting a JSON Schema under `# Response Formats` in the developer message
6. Drop earlier reasoning after a final answer but pass it back after tool calls, and don't show the analysis channel to users
7. Expect one tool call per turn; run several in sequence rather than in parallel

### SmolLM3-3B

1. Start it with `vllm serve HuggingFaceTB/SmolLM3-3B --enable-auto-tool-choice --tool-call-parser=hermes`, or tool calls come back as text
2. Pass `chat_template_kwargs` with `enable_thinking` false for short tasks, since thinking is on by default; a `/think` or `/no_think` flag in the system prompt overrides the kwarg
3. Put earlier tool calls in the assistant message content, since the template ignores a `tool_calls` field when it renders history
4. Add the YaRN `rope_scaling` block (factor 2.0, original 65536) to config.json before sending more than 65,536 tokens
5. Use temperature 0.6 and top_p 0.95, the card's recommended sampling
6. Needs Transformers v4.53.0 or later; for llama.cpp use a GGUF from ggml-org or another converter, since Hugging Face publishes none
7. Validate JSON output yourself or use the runtime's guided decoding
