Highlights
Project workflow routing and tool selection.
- On 48 held-out turns: correct next action 31/48, against 22/48 for the best fixed action; valid JSON 0.854 and template validity 0.917.
- On 18 identical requests it matched the Llama 3.3 70B teacher's next-action accuracy (11/18 each) using the 8B serving package.
- Shares one 6.1 GB 4-bit base with the six other Curator 8B adapters.
Assessment: Routing adapter that beats a fixed-action baseline by 9 of 48 turns and matches the teacher on the paired requests. Tests replay one turn without executing tools.
Architecture: Qwen/Qwen3-8B · Artifact: adapter · Mode: thinking-on.
Family comparison
Evaluation pools and paired comparisons are described below. This release is shown in bold.
Orchestration evaluation — 1 October 2026
Next action means selecting the reference's first tool, or correctly selecting no tool. Best fixed action is the score of always choosing the pool's most common action; every adapter beats it, by 6 to 9 turns. Across the four paired groups, students score 37/67 and the teacher 40/67. Some requests recur across adapters; these are 67 comparisons, not 67 independent requests. Each full evaluation uses its own 48-turn pool. Tests replay one turn with tool execution disabled.
GPU serving — 1 October 2026
One NVIDIA A100 80 GB, vLLM 0.29. Each row describes a shared serving package.
Student sweeps used 2,048 input / 256 output tokens and cold cache. The teacher figure comes from a 180-second warm window with different output lengths. Ratios between these rows combine model and workload effects. Energy covers sampled GPU board power. The 8B base occupies about one-sixth of the teacher's weight storage and serves seven adapters. Nemotron ON throughput remains unmeasured.
Selection measurements (training record)
Recorded result: selection-time composite 0.791 (mean of the JSON, tool-name, next-action and template checks).
Comparison pool: 48 turns.

Loading and use
Load Qwen/Qwen3-8B with a compatible PEFT runtime and attach this adapter. The measured weight files match the published weight files; the immutable public loading pin is shown below.
Full-precision PEFT loading example, with a pinned public base. The reported
8B serving measurements used the 4-bit AWQ package identified in the tables.

Shared-base multi-LoRA
A single compatible Qwen/Qwen3-8B base can serve this family of 7 adapters. Register each immutable adapter snapshot with --enable-lora --lora-modules alias=./adapter, then select its alias through the HTTP request model field. This reuses the base weights for fast task switching and GPU-memory reuse. Size the LoRA slots, context and concurrency for the deployment. The 8B and 35B families each require their own base.
Set the chat template's enable_thinking option to true for this variant. The base templates think by default, and an adapter alias does not change the template. The 1 October results used Curator's training-time prompt format; this chat-template setting was not separately evaluated.
Curator publishes these weights as an experimental release of its applied model research, with its own measurements on held-out data. Training data and prompts remain private, so the published scores cannot be reproduced outside Curator; evaluate this exact revision on your own data before production use.
