Why the edge:
- Agent interface, North Mini Code 1.0 +50: North Mini Code 1.0 85 (Chat template 20, chat_template.jinja in the repository (12,397 characters).); Olmo 3 7B Think 35 (The chat template earns 20 for chat_template.jinja in the repository.)
- Documentation and upkeep, Olmo 3 7B Think +16: North Mini Code 1.0 36 (Model card 11, Intended use, the architecture, the parameters and the context are on the card.); Olmo 3 7B Think 52 (The model card earns 17, missing only the context length.)
- Risk, Olmo 3 7B Think +15: North Mini Code 1.0 60 (File safety 25, safetensors only, no .bin, .pt or .pth files and no Python in the repository.); Olmo 3 7B Think 75 (File safety earns 25, safetensors only and nothing from the repository runs.)
- Reach, North Mini Code 1.0 +10: North Mini Code 1.0 85 (Memory 25, the smallest build from Cohere is the w4a16 repository, 19.38 GB, and 19.38 GB × 1.2 = 23.3 GB, within 24 GB.); Olmo 3 7B Think 75 (Memory earns the full 30, since Ollama's 4-bit build is 4.5 GB and fits 8 GB (per the 21 October check of Ollama's library).)
