Every size fits in under 0.5 GB and runs on a CPU, but only through the publisher's own Python package. Nobody has benchmarked it independently, its quickstart data was deleted from the repository, and the publisher hasn't replied since November 2025.\n\n**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.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Kronos\n\n1. Clone https://github.com/shiyu-coder/Kronos and `pip install -r requirements.txt`, then load `Kronos.from_pretrained(\"NeoQuasar/Kronos-small\")` and `KronosTokenizer.from_pretrained(\"NeoQuasar/Kronos-Tokenizer-base\")` and wrap them in KronosPredictor\n2. Pair Kronos-mini with Kronos-Tokenizer-2k and Kronos-small or Kronos-base with Kronos-Tokenizer-base, the cards' pairing\n3. The examples read examples/data/XSHG_5min_600977.csv, which no longer exists; point them at tests/data/regression_input.csv, 2,500 five-minute bars\n4. Keep the lookback at or under max_context, 512 bars, and pass the future timestamps you want as y_timestamp, since the calendar fields come from them\n5. Raise sample_count for a steadier forecast, but expect only the mean back; call the lower-level auto_regressive_inference yourself if you need the paths\n6. Treat forecasts as model output to check, not signals; the README says its own backtest pipeline isn't a production trading system\n\n### SmolLM3-3B\n\n1. Start it with `vllm serve HuggingFaceTB/SmolLM3-3B --enable-auto-tool-choice --tool-call-parser=hermes`, or tool calls come back as text\n2. 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\n3. Put earlier tool calls in the assistant message content, since the template ignores a `tool_calls` field when it renders history\n4. Add the YaRN `rope_scaling` block (factor 2.0, original 65536) to config.json before sending more than 65,536 tokens\n5. Use temperature 0.6 and top_p 0.95, the card's recommended sampling\n6. Needs Transformers v4.53.0 or later; for llama.cpp use a GGUF from ggml-org or another converter, since Hugging Face publishes none\n7. Validate JSON output yourself or use the runtime's guided decoding\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Kronos or SmolLM3-3B?\n\nSmolLM3-3B scores 61 (C) on agent readiness against Kronos's 55.2 (C), and leads in 3 of 4 scored categories.
