Why the edge:
- Agent interface, Inkling 2 Small +50: Inkling 2 Small 85 (Chat template 20, a Jinja file in the repository.); Olmo 3 7B Think 35 (The chat template earns 20 for chat_template.jinja in the repository.)
- Reach, Olmo 3 7B Think +35: Inkling 2 Small 40 (Memory 0 of 30, the smallest build is Thinking Machines' NVFP4 checkpoint at 393.5 GB, about 472 GB with a fifth added, above the 256 GB line.); Olmo 3 7B Think 75 (Memory earns the full 30, since Ollama's 4-bit build is 4.5 GB and fits 8 GB (per the 21 October check of Ollama's library).)
- Documentation and upkeep, Inkling 2 Small +15: Inkling 2 Small 67 (Model card 17 of 20, everything but a dated knowledge cut-off.); Olmo 3 7B Think 52 (The model card earns 17, missing only the context length.)
- Risk, Olmo 3 7B Think +10: Inkling 2 Small 65 (File safety 25, safetensors only and no repository code to run.); Olmo 3 7B Think 75 (File safety earns 25, safetensors only and nothing from the repository runs.)
