Ministral 3 14B Reasoning 2512
Ministral 3 14B Reasoning 2512 is the reasoning post-trained version of the largest model in the Ministral 3 family, released by mistralai under the apache-2.0 license. It combines a 13.5B language model with a 0.4B vision encoder, supports vision, multilingual input across eleven listed languages, system prompts, native function calling and JSON outputting, and a 256k context window. The model is described as edge-optimized and is said to fit in 32GB of VRAM in BF16, or less than 24GB of RAM/VRAM when quantized. It is intended for reasoning-heavy tasks such as math, coding, and STEM, as well as private or local deployments, agentic uses, and fine-tuning. The model card recommends using the provided system prompt, keeping reasoning traces in context for multi-turn interactions, a temperature of 1 for most environments, limiting the number of tools, and maintaining an aspect ratio close to 1:1 for images.

Tradeoffs
- The source does not specify hardware requirements beyond fitting in 32GB of VRAM in BF16 and under 24GB of RAM/VRAM when quantized.
- No performance benchmarks, testing results, or compatibility details are provided.
- The model card advises against overly thin or wide images and recommends cropping to an aspect ratio near 1:1 for vision.
- The model card recommends limiting the number of tools to avoid overloading the model in agentic use cases.
- No information is provided about supported inference frameworks beyond the listed library_name: vllm and inference: false.
