LongCat-2.5 vs Nemotron 3 Nano Omni 30B A3B Reasoning

LongCat-2.5 35

Memory 0, the smallest build is Meituan's W4A4 repository, 1,336 GB, and 1,336 GB × 1.2 = 1,603 GB, far above 256 GB. The BF16 files are 3,562 GB. Runtimes 0, none of the six runs it in a released version: vLLM 0.33.0, SGLang 0.5.23, Transformers 5.22.2 and llama.cpp b12242 have no LongcatCausalLM or pro_v code, and the model code config.json names isn't in the repository. Builds 10, one quantised build from Meituan, the W4A4 repository (4-bit experts, 1,336 GB). Terms 15, MIT in the metadata, the LICENSE file and the card, with nothing added. Download 10, the Hub API reports gated false for both repositories on 10 November 2026, so the files download with no account and nothing to accept. Hosted 0, Hugging Face maps no inference provider to it. 0 + 0 + 10 + 15 + 10 + 0 = 35.

Memory earns 20 because the smallest 4-bit builds, Ollama's NVFP4 at 21 GB and NVIDIA's NVFP4 at 22.4 GB, need about 25 to 27 GB with the fifth added, which fits 32 GB but not 24. Runtimes reach the cap of 25 with released code in vLLM, SGLang and llama.cpp and library entries in Ollama and LM Studio. NVIDIA's FP8 and NVFP4 builds give builds the full 15. The NVIDIA Open Model Agreement is a custom licence with free commercial use, so terms get 10. The ungated repositories give download the full 10, and NVIDIA's own API serving it gives hosted too its 5.

Model card 11, Intended use, limitations (the usage considerations), the architecture and the parameter counts are on the card. Training data 5, A general description of the training stages and where the reinforcement learning tasks came from, with no sources, sizes or cut-off. Last change 20, the last commit, on 10 November 2026, updated the card, on the day of this check. Responsiveness 0, Neither of the 2 discussions that aren't pull requests (9 and 10 November 2026) has a reply from a meituan-longcat member, counted on 10 November by author flags and dates with a script, text not read. Version policy 5, LongCat-2.0 stays in its own repositories and 2.5 came out in new ones, with no dated note on the older ones that we read. File health 5, the template is in both places and agrees, but config.json's auto_map names configuration_longcat_oe and modeling_longcat_oe, which aren't in the repository, and the tokenizer config's 131,072-token length is a quarter of the config's 524,288 positions. 11 + 5 + 20 + 0 + 5 + 5 = 46.

Nemotron 3 Nano Omni 30B A3B Reasoning 70

The card covers all seven fields, reading the 2019 to 2025 data collection period as the cut-off (20). Training data is listed with sources and sizes by dataset and one set is published (20). The Hub files last changed on 24 and 25 August 2026, and NVIDIA's TensorRT-LLM, which the card names for serving, changed the Nemotron-H model code on 14 October 2026, 20 days back (20). None of the 11 questions across the three repositories has a reply (0). It's a first release with no version policy stated (5). The shipped Jinja template and the tokenizer config's template differ, and reports about the template and a modeling file wait unanswered (5). 20 + 20 + 20 + 0 + 5 + 5 = 70.

LongCat-2.5 75

Chat template 20, chat_template.jinja in the repository (11,823 characters), with a copy in tokenizer_config.json. Tool-calling format 25, the card documents how tools are declared (the OpenAI function format) and how calls come back (tool_calls with an id, a name and JSON arguments, answered by a tool message), in a worked example against an OpenAI-compatible server. Trained tool calling 10, the card describes reinforcement learning on long agentic tasks and shows one tool call in a turn. Structured output 0, Nothing on the card about JSON or schema-constrained output. Reasoning control 10, enable_thinking on or off per request through chat_template_kwargs, with the reasoning returned as reasoning_content, both shown on the card. Context 10, the card states no context length, but config.json gives 524,288 positions and the card's own evaluations ran at 512K and 1M sequence lengths after what it calls long-context training, so 128K or more is taken as trained. 20 + 25 + 10 + 0 + 10 + 10 = 75.

Nemotron 3 Nano Omni 30B A3B Reasoning 90

A Jinja template ships in the repository (20). The card names the qwen3_coder parser and NVIDIA's cookbooks show tools declared with the OpenAI schema and tool_calls read back (25). The template renders several calls per turn and the card says it supports tool calling (20). JSON output is claimed with no word on how to ask for it (5). Thinking turns off per request, a budget caps it and the parser returns the reasoning apart (10). The context is 262,144 tokens, trained in (10).
