MiniCPM-V 4.7 1B and Recursive Flint score within a point of each other on agent readiness, 61 (C) and 61 (C). Recursive Flint leads on risk, agent interface and documentation and upkeep. Both do open-weight models you run yourself.

- MiniCPM-V 4.7 1B: C 61, rank #76 of 160 open-weight models · https://www.anchorterminal.com/tools/minicpm-v-4-7-1b.min.md
- Recursive Flint: C 61, rank #54 of 160 open-weight models · https://www.anchorterminal.com/tools/recursive-flint.min.md
- MiniCPM-V 4.7 1B, good for Agents that need a cheap local model to read screenshots, photos and short video on a phone, a laptop or beside a bigger model Ahead on Reach, 95 against 85.
- Recursive Flint, good for Agents doing repository work on a 32 to 48 GB Mac or NVIDIA box that want a sparse coder with documented tool calls and a plain licence. Ahead on Risk, 60 against 55; Agent interface, 90 against 70; Documentation and upkeep, 67 against 48.

Why the edge:
- Agent interface, Recursive Flint +20: MiniCPM-V 4.7 1B 70 (Chat template 20, chat_template.jinja in the repository, 7,249 characters.); Recursive Flint 90 (Chat template 20, a Jinja file in the repository and inside both GGUFs.)
- Documentation and upkeep, Recursive Flint +19: MiniCPM-V 4.7 1B 48 (Model card 8, Intended use (image, multi-image and video understanding on device), architecture (early visual-token compression inside the vision encoder) and p…); Recursive Flint 67 (Model card 17 of 20, everything but languages.)
- Reach, MiniCPM-V 4.7 1B +10: MiniCPM-V 4.7 1B 95 (Memory 30, OpenBMB's own IQ4_XS GGUF is 0.64 GB, 1.54 GB with the 0.90 GB vision projector, and 1.54 GB × 1.2 = 1.9 GB, which fits 16 GB with room to spare.); Recursive Flint 85 (Memory 20 of 30, Recursive's MLX INT4 build is 22.6 GB, or 27.1 GB with a fifth added, which fits 32 GB, and every other 4-bit build lands in the same band.)
- Risk, Recursive Flint +5: MiniCPM-V 4.7 1B 55 (File safety 25, safetensors in the main repository and the AWQ, GPTQ and int4 builds, GGUF in the GGUF build, with no .bin, .pt, .pth or .py files in the main r…); 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.)
