Ollama's 4-bit build needs about 8 GB and the BF16 files about 24 GB, in every major runtime. The main risk is neglect, with no file changes since March, no replies from Qwen to reports and no safety results.\n\n**SmolLM3-3B.** A tiny, fully open cousin with documented tool calling and switchable thinking, for local subtasks and routing on laptops and CPUs. It needs about 8 GB in BF16, or under 3 GB in Hugging Face's 4-bit ONNX build for ONNX Runtime. The main risks are a 64K native context, no safety results and no repository changes since September 2025.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Qwen3.5-9B\n\n1. Smallest start is `ollama run qwen3.5:9b` (6.6 GB, q4_k_m)\n2. On vLLM run `vllm serve Qwen/Qwen3.5-9B --port 8000 --max-model-len 262144 --reasoning-parser qwen3 --enable-auto-tool-choice --tool-call-parser qwen3_coder`, or tool calls come back as text\n3. Tool calls use the XML style `\u003ctool_call\u003e\u003cfunction=name\u003e\u003cparameter=x\u003e`, not Hermes JSON, so use the qwen3_coder parser and not hermes\n4. Thinking is on by default; pass `chat_template_kwargs` with `enable_thinking` false for short tasks, since `/nothink` isn't supported\n5. There's no generation_config.json, so pass sampling yourself, temperature 1.0, top_p 0.95, top_k 20, presence_penalty 1.5 when thinking, or 0.7, 0.8, 20, 1.5 without\n6. Keep at least 128K of context when thinking, and turn on YaRN only beyond 262,144 tokens\n7. Validate JSON output yourself or use the runtime's guided decoding\n\n### SmolLM3-3B\n\n1. Start it with `vllm serve HuggingFaceTB/SmolLM3-3B --enable-auto-tool-choice --tool-call-parser=hermes`, or tool calls come back as text\n2. Pass `chat_template_kwargs` with `enable_thinking` false for short tasks, since thinking is on by default; a `/think` or `/no_think` flag in the system prompt overrides the kwarg\n3. Put earlier tool calls in the assistant message content, since the template ignores a `tool_calls` field when it renders history\n4. Add the YaRN `rope_scaling` block (factor 2.0, original 65536) to config.json before sending more than 65,536 tokens\n5. Use temperature 0.6 and top_p 0.95, the card's recommended sampling\n6. Needs Transformers v4.53.0 or later; for llama.cpp use a GGUF from ggml-org or another converter, since Hugging Face publishes none\n7. Validate JSON output yourself or use the runtime's guided decoding\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Qwen3.5-9B or SmolLM3-3B?\n\nSmolLM3-3B and Qwen3.5-9B score within a point of each other on agent readiness, 61 (C) and 60.5 (C).\n\n\n## For agents\n\n- This comparison as JSON: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/qwen3-5-9b-vs-smollm3-3b.json, and with the fewest tokens: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/qwen3-5-9b-vs-smollm3-3b.min.md\n- Over MCP at https://www.anchorterminal.com/mcp (no key): `compare_tools {\"a\": \"qwen3-5-9b\", \"b\": \"smollm3-3b\"}`.
