I appreciate the insight. I might look at these a bit later... because I am swamped with this new build Im putting together. I havent yet found my so-called 'sweet spot' yet for larger tasks. I checked out the gemma4 variant the one or two times just for contextual reasoning and smaller build capabilities, but Ive only been testing single use isolated tool tests with my mcp pointed at it lately to ensure tools I've installed actually work before I incorporate them into the mcp server. No plug or anything, but just so you can get a feel of what I'm doing, I initially set out to learn coding. Then I fell into trying to build my own local model to help teach me coding (and anything else related) because tutorials and all these fancy webinars and such just put me to sleep. Once I discovered all of this AI stuff...? My interest in cybersecurity just skyrocketed. So....no life story or anything) ha... I started to build this mcp, pointed at LM Studio with qwen loaded as my first one. As I began to familiarise more I realised...I need a model that is free, local, will understand context, reasoning, can code, de-bug,vuln discovery- etc. etc. All of this sent me on this whole cybersecurity rabbit hole - as it does with any tech stuff, and now along with my need for a model to teach me coding(Python) I wanted a model to also HELP me build ITSELF basically. Because so far, Ive used good old Claude- Sonnet-5 straight from the mobile app for said task. Dont laugh. And I show the build,and upgrades of the mcp to GEMMA (initially qwen) and get fedback against the Cluade assisted builds. So I apologise for ruining your day, but... thats where Im headed. I need a model that will vibe with me, build with me, reason, comprehend context and also... not chew up my m1 16gb, or token usage. Well, if its free I suppose tokens arent a thing but they do sort of matter still. Thanks again. Your information is much appreciated and invaluable.
