Capabilities

Tool calling
Calls functions you define and returns their arguments as structured data, the basis of agents.
Streaming
Emits tokens as they are generated, so answers appear progressively rather than all at once.
Open weights
The parameters are published, so the model can be inspected, fine-tuned and self-hosted under its licence.
Long context
Built for inputs well beyond the mainstream window, whole repositories, archives or corpora.
