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**ThinkingCap (Qwen3.8 27B).** A Qwen3.8-27B with shorter reasoning, for agent work where thinking tokens cost time, and BottleCap's 4-bit GGUF runs in about 19 GB. The main limits are the licence, which needs a paid licence above 100 people or 1,000,000 USD revenue, a gated main repository, and no safety results or training-data description.\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### ThinkingCap (Qwen3.8 27B)\n\n1. Check the licence first, an organisation with 100 or more people or 1,000,000 USD (2019) revenue needs a commercial licence from BottleCap\n2. For files without the gate use `llama-server -hf bottlecapai/ThinkingCap-Qwen3.8-27B-GGUF:Q4_K_M --jinja`, about 17.4 GB\n3. On vLLM use `--reasoning-parser qwen3 --enable-auto-tool-choice --tool-call-parser qwen3_xml`, and on SGLang `--tool-call-parser qwen3_coder`\n4. Set `reasoning_effort` (xhigh, medium or low) in chat_template_kwargs, any other value makes the template raise an error\n5. Keep the base's sampling (temperature 1.0, top_p 0.95, top_k 20), the GGUF card says greedy decoding can loop\n6. The GGUFs carry an MTP head, and llama.cpp builds without MTP support for this architecture may refuse to load them with a missing blk.64 tensor\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Qwen3.5-9B or ThinkingCap (Qwen3.8 27B)?\n\nThinkingCap (Qwen3.8 27B) and Qwen3.5-9B score within a point of each other on agent readiness, 61 (C) and 60.5 (C).
