Description
Qwen3-Coder-480B-A35B-Instruct is an advanced AI model developed to enhance agentic coding tasks. It is part of the Qwen series and represents the most powerful variant available. The model is designed to perform exceptionally well in agentic coding and browser-use tasks, achieving results comparable to other leading models like Claude Sonnet.
One of the standout features of Qwen3-Coder-480B-A35B-Instruct is its long-context capabilities. It natively supports 256K tokens, which can be extended up to 1 million tokens using Yarn, making it optimized for repository-scale understanding. This allows users to handle large-scale coding projects with ease.
The model is built with a causal language model architecture, featuring 480 billion parameters in total, with 35 billion activated. It includes 62 layers and 96 attention heads for query and 8 for key-value pairs. Additionally, it has 160 experts, with 8 activated, providing robust performance in various coding tasks.
Qwen3-Coder-480B-A35B-Instruct supports agentic coding for most platforms, including Qwen Code and CLINE, and features a specially designed function call format. It is recommended to use the latest version of transformers for optimal performance, as older versions may encounter errors.
For local use, applications such as Ollama, LMStudio, MLX-LM, llama.cpp, and KTransformers support Qwen3. Users are advised to configure sampling parameters for best results, including temperature, top_p, top_k, and repetition penalty settings. The model is suitable for developers and researchers looking for a high-performance coding AI tool.
