Kolibri-1 vs Ling-3.1-flash-1019

Kolibri-1 90

The chat template earns 20 as Jinja in tokenizer_config.json. The tool-calling format earns 25, because the card documents how tools are declared and how calls come back and names the kolibri1 parser for vLLM with a full example. Trained tool calling earns 20, from training on tool environments and a template built for several calls in one turn. Structured output earns 5, since the card claims it without saying how to ask. Reasoning control earns 10 for effort levels and an off switch per request, with the reasoning returned in a separate field. Context earns 10 for 262,144 tokens trained.

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. Tool-calling format 10, only the template says how tools are declared (JSON in <tools>) and how calls come back (<tool_call>name with <arg_key> and <arg_value> pairs). Trained tool calling 20, the template tells the model it may call one or more functions and loops over every entry in an assistant message's tool_calls, and the card reports gains on agentic benchmarks, AA-Briefcase and AutomationBench-AA among them. Structured output 0, the card doesn't document JSON or JSON Schema output. Reasoning control 0, the card documents turning thinking on or off per request with chat_template_kwargs enable_thinking, and names the ling3 reasoning parser, but doesn't say where the reasoning text comes back. Context 10, 262,144 tokens natively in config.json (max_position_embeddings 262144, rope_scaling null) and per SGLang's cookbook. 20 + 10 + 20 + 0 + 0 + 10 = 60.

Kolibri-1 65

File safety earns 25 for safetensors only, with no repository code run on load. Provenance earns 15, for the Aleph-Alpha organisation the launch post links and a SHA-256 for every weight shard. Safety evaluation earns 0, because the card says refusals were measured and neither the card nor the technical report publishes results. Agent guidance earns 10, since the card says what the trained refusals cover and which safeguards to add around the model, without prompt-injection guidance. Licence risk earns the full 15 under unchanged Apache 2.0. The security programme earns 0, as no contact, policy or advisories were found and security.txt answered 403 on 3 November, so it is scored as absent and left open.

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 repository's configuration_bailing_moe_v3.py, since vLLM 0.33.0 registers no bailing_hybrid config of its own. Provenance 15, files in the inclusionAI organisation that inclusion-ai.org links to, per the Ling-3.0-tiny listing (10). Safety evaluation 0, no safety results for the model on its card or in the training-content summary. Agent guidance 0, the card has nothing on prompt injection, refusals or safeguards, and inclusionAI publishes no guardrail probe for this model as it did for Ling 3.0. Licence risk 15, MIT with no use policy, no field-of-use limits, no threshold and no clause letting inclusionAI change or revoke it. Security programme 0, www.inclusion-ai.org answers 404 for security.txt on 10 November 2026, and the Ling-3.0-tiny listing found no SECURITY.md or disclosure policy in the inclusionAI .github repository. 15 + 15 + 0 + 0 + 15 + 0 = 45.

Kolibri-1 70

The model card earns 20 with all seven items. Training data earns 15 for a data card with the mix, the filtering and the cut-off, short of a dataset list with sizes. The last change earns 20, for template and card commits on 20 October 2026. Responsiveness earns 5, since Aleph Alpha replied in 2 of 14 discussions across both repositories and none since 13 October. Version policy earns 5 for a first release. File health earns 5, because the files agree but a report of a broken tool-call parser in the publisher's container image has waited since 7 October without a reply.

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 claimed) are on the card. Training data 15, the training-content summary the card links names the source categories (Common Crawl and other public datasets, commercially licensed data, the Ant Spider crawler, synthetic data), the size band (over 10 trillion text tokens), data collected up to about July 2026 and the filtering, without listing datasets with sizes. Last change 20, the newest commit, on 4 November 2026, edited the card, six days before this check, and the files went up on 27 October. Responsiveness 0, Neither of the 2 discussions that aren't pull requests (both opened on 27 October 2026) has a reply from an inclusionAI member. Version policy 5, the update went into a repository of its own and Ling-3.1-flash and Ling 3.0 stay in theirs. File health 5, the card states a 1M-token context while config.json gives 262,144 with no rope scaling, and its serve commands name the earlier repository as the model path. 11 + 15 + 20 + 0 + 5 + 5 = 56.

Kolibri-1 65

Memory earns 10 because the smallest qualifying build is Aleph Alpha's own FP8 one at 78.8 GB, which comes to 94.6 GB with the fifth added and so fits only the reference machine's band. There is no publisher 4-bit or GGUF build and no Ollama library entry to bring it lower. Runtimes earn 20, for released Transformers 5.20.0, released llama.cpp builds from b11709, Ollama 0.40.14, which builds llama.cpp b11963 with kolibri1, and vLLM, through Aleph Alpha's plugin for 0.29 and natively in 0.33.0 through its Transformers backend. LM Studio's latest runtime predates kolibri1 and SGLang 0.5.23 has no model file. Builds earn 10 for the one FP8 quantisation beside BF16. Terms earn 15 for Apache 2.0 with no use policy. Download earns 10 because neither repository is gated. Hosted earns 0, since no inference provider is listed on the Hub and Aleph Alpha names no API serving it.

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. Runtimes 25, Released model code in Transformers 5.22.2 (bailing_hybrid), vLLM 0.33.0 (BailingMoeV3ForCausalLM, with ling3 tool and reasoning parsers), SGLang 0.5.23 (bailing_moe_v3.py, its bailing_hybrid config and MTP module) and llama.cpp b12242 (bailingmoe3), and Ollama, credited through its pinned llama.cpp as on the Ling-3.0-tiny listing: v0.40.16 sets LLAMA_CPP_VERSION to b12177. Builds 10, the release is FP8, the one quantised precision inclusionAI publishes for it. Terms 15, MIT in the card's metadata, with no use policy or other terms added on the card or in the repository. Download 10, the Hub API's model info gives gated false on 10 November 2026, so the files download with no account and no terms to accept. Hosted 0, the Hub API's provider mapping is empty for this repository on 10 November 2026. 0 + 25 + 10 + 15 + 10 + 0 = 60.
