r/LocalLLaMA top day·yesterday·Release
Cohere has released North Mini Code 1.0, its first open-source agentic coding model, under the permissive Apache 2.0 license. The model has 30 billion total parameters but activates only 3 billion at inference time, suggesting a sparse architecture optimized for efficiency. It scores 33.4 on the Artificial Analysis Coding Index, positioned as competitive among models of comparable size, and is available on Hugging Face.
