Give it a task; it reasons in `<think>`, then uses `bash` / `write` / `read` /48`edit` in a sandbox to build, run, and fix code, and renders the result (charts, images, live HTML) inline in49the chat. Multi-turn: files and history persist across messages. It is also exposed as an **MCP tool**50(`run_coding_task` at `/gradio_api/mcp/`).51 52 53## What it is54 55Most coding agents are 70B+ behind a cloud API. This is the opposite: a **1B** model doing the *real* agentic56loop on a **2-vCPU CPU Space**, no GPU. It writes a file, runs it, reads the output, debugs, and shows you the57artifact, the same loop a big agent runs, shrunk to something you could host in your own backyard.58 59## How it was built60 61- Modal platform was used to evaluate the model via inference.62- **Data (`train_v4`, 45,762 rows):** the proven v2 backbone (retail-filtered teacher mixes + real-usage agent63 traces) kept whole, plus ~3,538 curated additions, gated to a small served tool vocab and solution-aware64 MinHash-deduped. Bundled on the model repo under `dataset/`.65- **SFT:** full fine-tune (not LoRA, the long agentic mix needs the capacity) of the abliterated base, 1 epoch,66 24k context, fits in ~15-18 GB VRAM (direct Liger fused cross-entropy + mem-efficient SDPA).67- **DPO (on-policy):** run the SFT model over the training prompts and capture its OWN behaviour. *chosen* = a68 valid `<function>` tool call; *rejected* = its real miss (rambling in `<think>` / answering with no call).69 ~649 pairs. This rewards ACTING over stalling.70- **Serving:** Q8_0 GGUF on llama.cpp; a two-phase decode bounds the `<think>` separately from the action so the71 model acts instead of looping; produced files render inline (charts, images, sandboxed live-HTML iframes).72 73## Try it74 75- "Write a Python script that makes a bar chart of 30, 45, 25 (A, B, C), save chart.png, then run it." โ writes + runs it; the PNG renders inline.76- "Write an HTML page quote.html with a button that shows a random quote each click (hard-coded, no internet)." โ writes the file; renders live in a sandboxed iframe.77 78It is a tiny 1B on a free CPU: expect **~4 min per simple turn**, longer for multi-step tasks (the demo video79shows it working end-to-end, so it can be judged even if a live run is slow).80 81 82<details><summary><b>Output examples</b></summary>83 84Real single-turn outputs from the Q8_0 GGUF, generated on Modal (CPU):85 86**Prompt:** Write a Python function `fib(n)` that returns the nth Fibonacci number iteratively.
