Provenance 15, files in the LiquidAI organisation, which Liquid's docs page for the model and its blog post link to (10). Safety evaluation 0, no safety results on the card or in Liquid's blog post for the LFM3 family, neither of which mentions safety testing. Agent guidance 0, Nothing on prompt injection, an instruction hierarchy, what refusals cover or safeguards to add. Licence risk 10, 15 less 5 for the $10M annual revenue threshold on commercial use. Security programme 0, no way to report a flaw found. 15 + 15 + 0 + 0 + 10 + 0 = 40.\n- Recursive Flint (60): File safety 15 of 25, safetensors and GGUF only, but the card's documented BF16 route installs the wheel shipped in the repository. Provenance 15, the files are in the RecursiveSI organisation that Recursive's own engine downloads from, with a checksum on every file. Safety evaluation 0, none on the cards or in the announcement post. Agent guidance 10, the card and serving README say to enforce permissions around tool use and to strip tool tags from untrusted tool output, but there's no trained instruction hierarchy. Licence risk 15, plain Apache 2.0. Security programme 5, a reporting address on the card and a private reporting route for the engine, with no public advisories yet.\n\n### Agent interface: LFM3-1.7B +10\n\n- LFM3-1.7B (100): Chat template 20, chat_template.jinja in the repository (12,129 characters), with roles, tools, deferred tools, tool results and the thinking switch. Tool-calling format 25, the card and Liquid's tool-use page document tools passed through `tools=` in apply_chat_template, calls returned as XML and results sent back as tool messages. Trained tool calling 20, the template loops over every entry in an assistant turn's tool_calls, so several calls fit in one turn, and the card says the model was trained on tool calls and agentic traces and with reinforcement learning inside agent harnesses. Structured output 15, Liquid's API guide documents `response_format` with a JSON Schema, with lfm3-1.7b as the model in its examples, and says the schema is checked before generation starts. Reasoning control 10, the card documents `enable_thinking=False` in the chat template to turn reasoning off per request, with reasoning on by default inside think tags, and `preserve_thinking` for earlier turns. Context 10, 256K tokens per the card, which says the mid-training stage extended the context window to 256K, and max_position_embeddings 262144 in config.json. 20 + 25 + 20 + 15 + 10 + 10 = 100.\n- Recursive Flint (90): Chat template 20, a Jinja file in the repository and inside both GGUFs. Tool-calling format 25, Recursive's serving README documents how tools go in, how calls come back and the flint parser. Trained tool calling 20, several calls a turn. Structured output 15, response_format with JSON Schema is documented. Reasoning control 0, the model decides when to reason and Recursive says there's no switch or budget. Context 10, 262,144 tokens with no position scaling.\n\n## Score by category\n\n| Category | Weight | LFM3-1.7B | Recursive Flint | Edge |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| Capability | 35%, pending | pending | pending | not scored in this run |\n| Reach | 25% (25 this run) | 85 | 85 | even |\n| Risk | 20% (20 this run) | 40 | 60 | Recursive Flint +20 |\n| Agent interface | 10% (10 this run) | 100 | 90 | LFM3-1.7B +10 |\n| Documentation and upkeep | 10% (10 this run) | 67 | 67 | even |\n| Negative events | ≤15 | 0 | 0 | |\n| **Total** | | **61 · C** | **61 · C** | |\n\n## Facts side by side\n\n| Fact | LFM3-1.7B | Recursive Flint |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| Kind | Open-weight model | Open-weight model |\n| Vendor | Liquid AI | Recursive |\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 | LFM Open License v1.0 (free commercial use below $10M annual revenue) | Apache-2.0 |\n| Read-only variant documented | no | no |\n| llms.txt | yes | no |\n| Last release | 2026-11-09 | 2026-10-21 |\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 | 3.5/5 (4) |\n\n## How the scores have moved\n\n### LFM3-1.7B\n\nNo score change since it was listed.\n\n### Recursive Flint\n\n- no change on 3 November 2026: product\n\n## Verdicts\n\n**LFM3-1.7B.** A 1.73B model that fits an 8 GB machine with room to spare, with a documented tool-call format, deferred tools, a thinking switch and a 256K context. It runs today in llama.cpp, Ollama and LM Studio only, loads in Transformers through repository code, and has no safety results, security contact or data sources.\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. Released llama.cpp, Ollama, vLLM and Transformers run it, while Recursive's free OpenRouter endpoint wasn't serving on 3 November 2026. 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### LFM3-1.7B\n\n1. Start it with `llama-server -hf LiquidAI/LFM3-1.7B-GGUF:Q4_K_M --jinja` or `ollama run lfm3`\n2. Use temperature 0.1, top_k 50 and repetition penalty 1.1 for chat, tools and agents, per the card\n3. Pass `enable_thinking=False` for direct answers, and expect it to reason anyway on hard tasks\n4. For a large tool catalogue mark tools `defer_loading` and give it a search tool\n5. Don't plan on vLLM or SGLang until a release carries LFM3\n6. Liquid doesn't recommend it for agentic coding or complex multi-step reasoning\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\n8. Check OpenRouter's endpoints list before calling recursive/flint-v1.0:free, since its only endpoint (Recursive, BF16) showed 0 per cent uptime over the last day on 3 November 2026\n9. vLLM needs v0.33.0 or later and Transformers v5.21 or later; released SGLang has no Flint model\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, LFM3-1.7B or Recursive Flint?\n\nLFM3-1.7B and Recursive Flint score within a point of each other on agent readiness, 61 (C) and 61 (C).
