Nanbeige4.3-33B vs Olmo 3 7B Think

Nanbeige4.3-33B

A dense 33B Llama-architecture cousin for long agentic coding and office tasks, with per-request thinking, XML tool calls that stock vLLM and SGLang parse, and 512K of context. It needs about 96 GB at BF16, as Nanbeige ships no quantised build. Its agentic results so far are Nanbeige's own, with no safety results, training data notes or licence file.

Olmo 3 7B Think

A fully open 7B reasoning cousin for maths, code and step-by-step answers, with every dataset and checkpoint published and its safety results rerunnable. Ollama's 4-bit build needs about 5.4 GB. It always thinks, wasn't trained for tool calls, has 65K of context, and Ai2 hasn't answered its discussions.

Nanbeige4.3-33B

1. Serve with vllm serve Nanbeige/Nanbeige4.3-33B --enable-auto-tool-choice --reasoning-parser qwen3 --tool-call-parser qwen3_coder, as the card says, or SGLang with the same two parsers
2. Keep tool_call_format at its default xml, since qwen3_coder parses that format; the json option writes Hermes-style JSON calls, which need a different parser such as vLLM's hermes
3. Pass chat_template_kwargs {"preserve_thinking": true} for multi-turn tool use and coding, and {"enable_thinking": false} to skip reasoning, as the card recommends
4. Use temperature 1.0, top_p 0.95 and up to 65,536 new tokens for agent work, and temperature 0.6 for reasoning and chat, per the card
5. Send your own system prompt, since without one the template injects a Chinese identity line, or a Chinese tool-expert prompt when tools are passed
6. Send one system message at the start only, as the template raises an error for a later one
7. In plain Transformers pass use_cache=True to generate, since config.json and generation_config.json set it false; trust_remote_code isn't needed

Olmo 3 7B Think

1. Quickest start is ollama run olmo-3:7b-think, about 4.5 GB
2. With vLLM, vllm serve allenai/Olmo-3-7B-Think --max-model-len 65536; vLLM runs it through its Transformers backend
3. Sample at temperature 0.6 and top_p 0.95 with up to 32,768 output tokens, as the card recommends, since thinking traces are long
4. Every reply starts with a think block; strip it yourself or use a reasoning parser that reads think tags
5. Pass your own system prompt; the template's default says the cut-off is November 2024 and that no functions are available
6. For tool calls use Olmo 3 7B Instruct instead, which Ai2 trained for function calling
7. A discussion reports endless reasoning loops when served with vLLM, unanswered, so cap max_tokens
8. Check the use against Ai2's Responsible Use Guidelines, which bar automated social-media posting and undisclosed automated content outside research
