Metadata reviewed 2026-10-28 · Original creator: Qwen
What it does
- Coding
- Original publisher checkpoint; compatible conversions may have separate requirements
- Source-reviewed catalogue entry; not an installed service
Local fit
Small-model candidate; verify memory for the runtime. Start with a small request and the runtime recommended by the publisher. This profile does not download weights or start an endpoint.
Context and output limits depend on the checkpoint, preprocessing and runtime. No universal memory-fit promise is made.
Evidence and limits
Source reviewed on October 28, 2026. We have not benchmarked this exact checkpoint locally.
Catalogue only. Use a supported runtime; no one-click installation or tested launcher adapter is claimed.
License and source
This exact 3B checkpoint uses the Qwen Research license, not Apache-2.0. Read its usage restrictions before selecting it for a commercial project. Other sizes in this family can have different terms.
