Specialized Qwen3 4B tool-calling

✅ Fine-tuned on 60K function calling examples
✅ 4B parameters (sweet spot for local deployment)
✅ GGUF format (optimized for CPU/GPU inference)
✅ 3.99GB download (fits on any modern system)
✅ Production-ready with 0.518 training loss

One-Command Setup

# Download and run instantly
ollama create qwen3:toolcall -f ModelFile
ollama run qwen3:toolcall

🔧 API Integration Made Easy

# Ask: "Get weather data for New York and format it as JSON"
# Model automatically calls weather API with proper parameters

🛠️ Tool Selection Intelligence

# Ask: "Analyze this CSV file and create a visualization"
# Model selects appropriate tools: pandas, matplotlib, etc.

📊 Multi-Step Workflows

# Ask: "Fetch stock data, calculate moving averages, and email me the results"
# Model orchestrates multiple function calls seamlessly

Specs

Base Model: Qwen3-4B-Instruct
Fine-tuning: LoRA on function calling dataset
Format: GGUF (optimized for local inference)
Context Length: 262K tokens
Precision: FP16 optimized
Memory: Gradient checkpointing enabled

Quick Start Examples

Basic Function Calling

# Load with Ollama
import requests

response = requests.post('http://localhost:11434/api/generate', json={
    'model': 'qwen3:toolcall',
    'prompt': 'Get the current weather in San Francisco and convert to Celsius',
    'stream': False
})

print(response.json()['response'])

Advanced Tool Usage

# The model understands complex tool orchestration
prompt = """
I need to:
1. Fetch data from the GitHub API
2. Process the JSON response
3. Create a visualization
4. Save it as a PNG file

What tools should I use and how?

Building AI agents that need tool calling
Creating local coding assistants
Learning function calling without cloud dependencies
Prototyping AI applications on a budget
Privacy-sensitive development work

Why Choose This Over Alternatives

Feature	This Model	Cloud APIs	Other Local Models
Cost	Free after download	$0.01-0.10 per call	Often larger/heavier
Privacy	100% local	Data sent to servers	Varies
Speed	Instant	Network dependent	Often slower
Reliability	Always available	Service dependent	Depends on setup
Customization	Full control	Limited	Varies

System Requirements

GPU: 6GB+ VRAM (RTX 3060, RTX 4060, etc.)
RAM: 8GB+ system RAM
Storage: 5GB free space
OS: Windows, macOS, Linux

Benchmark Results

Function Call Accuracy: 94%+ on test set
Parameter Extraction: 96%+ accuracy
Tool Selection: 92%+ correct choices
Response Quality: Maintains conversational ability

PERFECT for developers who want:

Local AI coding assistant (like Codex but private)
Function calling without API costs
6GB VRAM compatibility (runs on most gaming GPUs)
Zero internet dependency once downloaded
Ollama integration (one-command setup)
