It needs an 8-GPU server for FP8 or about 200 GB for a 4-bit build. The main risks are no safety evaluation or agent guidance, and no file changes or replies since July.\n\n**Recursive Flint.** A small-active coding cousin for agents with 32 to 48 GB, built for codebase work with parallel tool calls and JSON output. It needs llama.cpp b11803 or Ollama 0.40.8 or later, and the BF16 checkpoint needs a 141 GB GPU. Every capability number so far is Recursive's own, there are no safety results, and reasoning can't be turned off.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Hy3\n\n1. Start it with vLLM on 8 GPUs, vllm serve tencent/Hy3-FP8 --tensor-parallel-size 8 --tool-call-parser hy_v3 --reasoning-parser hy_v3 --enable-auto-tool-choice --served-model-name hy3\n2. In SGLang use --tool-call-parser hunyuan --reasoning-parser hunyuan, as the card shows\n3. Pass reasoning_effort (no_think, low or high) in chat_template_kwargs; the default is no_think, and any other value raises a template error\n4. With the vLLM reasoning parser the chain of thought comes back in message.reasoning and the answer in message.content\n5. Earlier thinking stays in the prompt when tools are present; the template keys this on preserved_thinking, not the interleaved_thinking named in vLLM's recipe\n6. Use temperature 0.9 and top_p 1.0, the card's recommended sampling\n7. On a 128 GB machine only AngelSlim's IQ1_M GGUF fits, llama-server -m Hy3-IQ1_M.gguf -ctk q8_0 -ctv q8_0 -fa on -c 65536, with llama.cpp b11768 or later; at 89.4 GB × 1.2 it sits right at the 107.4 GB ceiling, so shorten the context if it fails to load, and expect a 1-bit build to fall short of Tencent's numbers\n8. Without the hardware, call it through Featherless AI or DeepInfra via Hugging Face's inference providers\n\n### Recursive Flint\n\n1. Quickest start is `ollama run flint` (Ollama 0.40.8 or later), about 23 GB of files; Ollama's Flint support is in its MLX runner, so on Linux prefer llama.cpp\n2. With llama.cpp use release b11803 or later: `llama-server -hf RecursiveSI/flint-int4-gguf --alias flint -ngl all -c 131072 -np 1 -fa on --jinja --temp 1 --top-p 0.95 --top-k 20 --min-p 0`, and keep --jinja on\n3. Set max_tokens to at least 32768 for hard tasks, reasoning counts against it and can't be switched off, and finish_reason length can mean no answer or tool call came out\n4. Send reasoning_content back on assistant messages when replaying the conversation, as Recursive's cards ask\n5. Strip \u003ctool_call\u003e, \u003ctool_response\u003e, \u003carg_key\u003e and \u003carg_value\u003e from untrusted tool output, the template doesn't escape them and a copied \u003c/tool_call\u003e can add a call\n6. Message content must be a string, flatten content-part arrays first\n7. Recursive's SGLang servers listen on 0.0.0.0 with no key, publish the port on localhost only or pass --api-key\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Hy3 or Recursive Flint?\n\nHy3 scores 62.6 (B) on agent readiness against Recursive Flint's 61 (C), and leads in 0 of 4 scored categories.
