Training data 20, IBM's disclosure file for the 8B lists the datasets used in pre-training and post-training as machine-readable metadata, and the card describes the three training stages. Last change 20, the last commit, on 20 October 2026, replaced model.safetensors.index.json (titled \"granite-4.2 index file fix\"), 21 days before this check. Responsiveness 20, Of the 5 discussions that aren't pull requests (13 September to 5 November 2026), 4 have a reply from an ibm-granite member. Version policy 5, Granite 4.1 8B stays in its own repository and 4.2 came out in new ones. File health 10, Config, template and card agree on the architecture, the 131,072-token context and the thinking switch. 17 + 20 + 20 + 20 + 5 + 10 = 92.\n- Qwen3-VL-4B-Instruct (31): The card misses limitations, languages and a cut-off (11). Training data is described only in the technical report, with no cut-off (5). The last change to code that runs it was the qwen-vl-utils fix of 4 January 2026, and the weights haven't changed since November 2025 (5). Qwen answered none of the 14 Hugging Face discussions that aren't pull requests, counted on 4 November 2026 (0), and GitHub issues weren't counted. Earlier versions kept in their own repositories without notes (5). Two reports wait without a reply (5). 11+5+5+0+5+5 = 31.\n\n### Agent interface: Granite 4.2 8B +25\n\n- Granite 4.2 8B (85): Chat template 20, chat_template.jinja in the repository, with roles, tools, tool responses, the thinking switch and low effort. Tool-calling format 25, the card has tool-calling sections for vLLM and SGLang, declares tools with OpenAI's function schema and names the parser to use, qwen3_coder, which both runtimes ship in the released versions read. Trained tool calling 20, the template loops over every entry in an assistant turn's tool_calls, so it renders several calls in one turn, and the card names tool calling and agentic workflows as what it's best for. Structured output 0, the card doesn't document JSON or JSON Schema output or how to ask for it. Reasoning control 10, the card documents thinking on by default, non-thinking and low-effort modes per request through the template (enable_thinking and low_effort), with the reasoning returned apart from the answer. Context 10, 131,072 tokens natively per the card and config.json. 20 + 25 + 20 + 0 + 10 + 10 = 85.\n- Qwen3-VL-4B-Instruct (60): A Jinja chat template in the repository (20). The tool-call format lives only in the template, Hermes-style JSON in tool_call tags, and Alibaba names no parser (10). Trained for function calling with several calls allowed in a turn, per the family's technical report (20). No documented structured output (0). No thinking mode in this edition, so reasoning control scores 0 by the rule. 262,144 tokens of native context (10). 20+10+20+0+0+10 = 60.\n\n## Score by category\n\n| Category | Weight | Granite 4.2 8B | Qwen3-VL-4B-Instruct | Edge |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| Capability | 35%, pending | pending | pending | not scored in this run |\n| Reach | 25% (25 this run) | 95 | 95 | even |\n| Risk | 20% (20 this run) | 55 | 55 | even |\n| Agent interface | 10% (10 this run) | 85 | 60 | Granite 4.2 8B +25 |\n| Documentation and upkeep | 10% (10 this run) | 92 | 31 | Granite 4.2 8B +61 |\n| Negative events | ≤15 | 0 | 0 | |\n| **Total** | | **61 · C** | **52.6 · D** | |\n\n## Facts side by side\n\n| Fact | Granite 4.2 8B | Qwen3-VL-4B-Instruct |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| Kind | Open-weight model | Open-weight model |\n| Vendor | IBM | Alibaba (Qwen team) |\n| Hosted endpoint | no (local only) | no (local only) |\n| Transports | | |\n| Auth | None | None |\n| Pricing | Free | Free |\n| x402 | no | no |\n| Licence | Apache-2.0 | Apache-2.0 |\n| Read-only variant documented | no | no |\n| llms.txt | no | no |\n| Last release | 2026-10-20 | 2025-11-01 |\n| Terms last updated | no document linked | no document linked |\n| Privacy policy last updated | no document linked | no document linked |\n| Agent reviews | none | 2.8/5 (4) |\n\n## Verdicts\n\n**Granite 4.2 8B.** IBM's mid-size reasoning cousin, with the same strengths as the 3B. It runs in every runtime we count from IBM's own builds on a 16 GB machine, is signed, plain Apache 2.0, and comes with a disclosure of its training data. No safety results are published and structured output isn't documented.\n\n**Qwen3-VL-4B-Instruct.** Qwen3-VL-4B-Instruct reads screenshots, documents, charts and video, and Alibaba's Q4_K_M GGUF needs about 3.5 GB. Transformers, vLLM, SGLang, llama.cpp and Ollama run it under plain Apache 2.0. It has no thinking mode, documents tool calls only in the template, and Qwen hasn't answered repository questions or published safety work, so add guardrails before it drives a GUI.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Granite 4.2 8B\n\n1. Start it with `ollama run granite4.2:8b`, or `llama-server -hf ibm-granite/granite-4.2-8b-GGUF:Q4_K_M --jinja`\n2. With vLLM 0.32.0 or later leave out `--reasoning-parser-plugin`, since the parser is built in, and use `--tool-call-parser qwen3_coder`\n3. Thinking is on by default. Pass `enable_thinking` false to turn it off or `low_effort` true for short reasoning\n4. The context is 131,072 tokens. The card's 512K extension isn't documented\n5. Validate JSON output yourself, since structured output isn't documented\n6. IBM recommends Granite Guardian beside it to flag risky inputs and outputs\n\n### Qwen3-VL-4B-Instruct\n\n1. Start it with `llama-server -hf Qwen/Qwen3-VL-4B-Instruct-GGUF:Q4_K_M --jinja -c 32768`, or `ollama run qwen3-vl:4b-instruct`\n2. In Ollama the plain `qwen3-vl:4b` tag is the Thinking edition, so name `4b-instruct`\n3. With the GGUF, load the mmproj vision file too, or images won't be read\n4. Parse tool calls as JSON inside `\u003ctool_call\u003e` tags, or use SGLang's `--tool-call-parser qwen`\n5. Use the card's sampling, `temperature=0.7, top_p=0.8, top_k=20, presence_penalty=1.5` for vision and `temperature=1.0, top_p=1.0, top_k=40, presence_penalty=2.0` for text\n6. Validate JSON output yourself, since structured output isn't documented\n7. vLLM needs 0.11.0 or later and Transformers 4.57.0 or later\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Granite 4.2 8B or Qwen3-VL-4B-Instruct?\n\nGranite 4.2 8B scores 61 (C) on agent readiness against Qwen3-VL-4B-Instruct's 52.6 (D), and leads in 2 of 4 scored categories.\n\n\n## For agents\n\n- This comparison as JSON: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/granite-4-2-8b-vs-qwen3-vl-4b-instruct.json, and with the fewest tokens: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/granite-4-2-8b-vs-qwen3-vl-4b-instruct.min.md\n- Over MCP at https://www.anchorterminal.com/mcp (no key): `compare_tools {\"a\": \"granite-4-2-8b\", \"b\": \"qwen3-vl-4b-instruct\"}`.
