Ministral 3 3B Reasoning 2512 GGUF#

The smallest model in the Ministral 3 family, Ministral 3 3B is a powerful, efficient tiny language model with vision capabilities.

This model includes different quantization levels of the reasoning post-trained version in GGUF, trained for reasoning tasks, making it ideal for math, coding and stem related use cases.

The Ministral 3 family is designed for edge deployment, capable of running on a wide range of hardware. Ministral 3 3B can even be deployed locally, fitting in 16GB of VRAM in BF16, and less than 8GB of RAM/VRAM when quantized.

Learn more in our blog post and paper.

Key Features#

Ministral 3 3B consists of two main architectural components:

  • 3.4B Language Model
  • 0.4B Vision Encoder

The Ministral 3 3B Reasoning model offers the following capabilities:

  • Vision: Enables the model to analyze images and provide insights based on visual content, in addition to text.
  • Multilingual: Supports dozens of languages, including English, French, Spanish, German, Italian, Portuguese, Dutch, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Arabic.
  • System Prompt: Maintains strong adherence and support for system prompts.
  • Agentic: Offers best-in-class agentic capabilities with native function calling and JSON outputting.
  • Reasoning: Excels at complex, multi-step reasoning and dynamic problem-solving.
  • Edge-Optimized: Delivers best-in-class performance at a small scale, deployable anywhere.
  • Apache 2.0 License: Open-source license allowing usage and modification for both commercial and non-commercial purposes.
  • Large Context Window: Supports a 256k context window.

We recommend deploying with the following best practices:

  • System Prompt: Use our provided system prompt, and append it to your custom system prompt to define a clear environment and use case, including guidance on how to effectively leverage tools in agentic systems.
  • Multi-turn Traces: We highly recommend keeping the reasoning traces in context.
  • Sampling Parameters: Use a temperature of 0.7 for most environments ; Different temperatures may be explored for different use cases - developers are encouraged to experiment with alternative settings.
  • Tools: Keep the set of tools well-defined and limit their number to the minimum required for the use case - Avoiding overloading the model with an excessive number of tools.
  • Vision: When deploying with vision capabilities, we recommend maintaining an aspect ratio close to 1:1 (width-to-height) for images. Avoiding the use of overly thin or wide images - crop them as needed to ensure optimal performance.
