Ornith-1.5-35B-A3B

Chirp Chirp! 🐦 We are introducing Ornith-1.5, a major step toward building foundation models through end-to-end self-improvement.

Ornith-1.5 extends Ornith-1.0 (which was developed on top of Qwen3.5 and Gemma4 with additional continued pretraining, mid-training, and post-training) by expanding the self-improvement loop from scaffold and rollout optimization to jointly optimizing task generation, scaffold construction, and solution rollouts. Rather than relying on a fixed set of human-curated tasks and manually designed harnesses, Ornith-1.5 continuously generates new training tasks, discovers effective strategies for solving them, and improves the policy through reinforcement learning. For more details on the task, harness, and rollout reward design, please refer to our blog.

Ornith 1.5 35B-A3B

This model card documents Ornith-1.5-35B-A3B, the mid-size mixture-of-experts member of the Ornith-1.5 family. It activates only ~3B parameters per token, yet significantly outperforms its similar-sized peer Qwen 3.6-35B across all coding and agentic benchmarks, and outperforms dense models such as Gemma 4-31B and Muse Glimmer-30B by wide margins on agentic coding.

All results reported for Ornith-1.5 are averaged over five independent runs.<br/>
Terminal-Bench 2.1 (Terminus-2): We evaluate Terminal-Bench 2.1 using the Harbor/Terminus-2 framework with parser=json, temperature=1.0, top_p=1.0, and a 128K context window. Each run uses a 4-hour timeout with 32 CPU cores and 48GB RAM, and results are averaged over 5 runs. We adjust the Qwen chat template to ensure consistency between training and inference (https://huggingface.co/ornith-ai/Ornith-1.5-35B-A3B/blob/main/chat_template.jinja), and modify Harbor to align with vLLM's reasoning_content key.<br/>
Terminal-Bench 2.1 (Claude Code): We evaluate Terminal-Bench 2.1 using Claude Code 2.1.126 with parser=json, temperature=1.0, top_p=1.0, max_new_tokens=131072. Results are averaged over 5 runs. Again, Qwen chat template needs to be modified.<br/>
SWE-Bench Verified, Pro and Multilingual: using OpenHands harness with temp=1.0, top_p=0.95, 256k context window. Anti-hacking safeguards are applied throughout evaluation: Git history is removed from the local repository image to prevent access to prior solutions or commits; network access is disabled, preventing the model from retrieving external information or resources.<br/>
DeepSWE: Evaluated using the Claude Code harness with temperature=1.0, top_p=0.95, and a 256K context window.<br/>
SWE Atlas QnA: using mini SWE agent harness with temp=1.0, top_p=0.95, 128K context window. Results are averaged over 5 runs.<br/>
NL2Repo: with temperature=1.0, top_p=1.0, 400K context, 48K output. Access to specified GitHub repositories and pip packages is blocked to prevent reward hacking.<br/>
HLE: Evaluated using Claude 4.6 Opus as the judge model.<br/>
MCP-Atlas: All models were evaluated in thinking mode on the 500-task public subset, with a 10-minute timeout per task. We use Claude 4.8 Opus as the judge model.<br/>
Toolathlon-Verified: We use the official evaluation service with the maximum token limit set to 128K.<br/>
ClawEval: An agentic code benchmark over real-user task distributions; temp=0.6 and 256K context.<br/>

Serving Ornith-1.5-35B-A3B

Ornith-1.5-35B-A3B is a ~35B mixture-of-experts model with ~3B activated parameters per token (≈70 GB in bf16). The recipes below stand up an OpenAI-compatible server on 2× 80GB GPUs to leave headroom for the 256K context; adjust --tensor-parallel-size / --tp to match your hardware.

vLLM

vllm serve ornith-ai/Ornith-1.5-35B-A3B \
    --served-model-name Ornith-1.5-35B-A3B \
    --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8000 \
    --tensor-parallel-size 2 \
    --max-model-len 262144 \
    --gpu-memory-utilization 0.90 \
    --enable-prefix-caching \
    --enable-auto-tool-choice --tool-call-parser qwen3_xml \
    --reasoning-parser qwen3 \
    --trust-remote-code

SGLang

python -m sglang.launch_server \
    --model-path ornith-ai/Ornith-1.5-35B-A3B \
    --served-model-name Ornith-1.5-35B-A3B \
    --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8000 \

    --context-length 262144 \
    --mem-fraction-static 0.85 \
    --tool-call-parser qwen3_coder \
    --reasoning-parser qwen3

For Long-Context

Ornith-1.5-35B-A3B handles context windows of up to 262,144 tokens. When a task's combined input and output must go beyond this limit, we suggest extending the effective window with RoPE scaling — YaRN is the technique we validate against, and it is already built into both vLLM and SGLang. With a scaling factor of 4.0, the usable window grows to roughly 1M tokens.

You can turn YaRN on in either of two ways:

Edit the checkpoint's config.json. Add a rope_scaling block to the model configuration:

```json

{

"rope_scaling": {

"rope_type": "yarn",

"factor": 4.0,

"original_max_position_embeddings": 262144

}

```

Override at launch time. Leave the checkpoint untouched and extend the serve commands above with the equivalent flags.

vLLM:

```bash

VLLM_ALLOW_LONG_MAX_MODEL_LEN=1 vllm serve ornith-ai/Ornith-1.5-35B-A3B ... --hf-overrides '{"rope_scaling": {"rope_type": "yarn", "factor": 4.0, "original_max_position_embeddings": 262144}}' --max-model-len 1000000

```

SGLang:

```bash

SGLANG_ALLOW_OVERWRITE_LONGER_CONTEXT_LEN=1 python -m sglang.launch_server ... --json-model-override-args '{"rope_scaling": {"rope_type": "yarn", "factor": 4.0, "original_max_position_embeddings": 262144}}' --context-length 1000000

```

<p style="margin:0">Open-source runtimes implement YaRN <i>statically</i>: the same scaling factor is applied to every request regardless of its length, which can slightly hurt quality on ordinary-length inputs. Only enable <code style="background:rgba(253,142,91,0.15);padding:1px 5px;border-radius:4px">rope_scaling</code> when your workload genuinely needs the longer window, and size <code style="background:rgba(253,142,91,0.15);padding:1px 5px;border-radius:4px">factor</code> to match it — the target window is roughly <code style="background:rgba(253,142,91,0.15);padding:1px 5px;border-radius:4px">factor</code> × 262,144, so if your requests top out around 524,288 tokens, <code style="background:rgba(253,142,91,0.15);padding:1px 5px;border-radius:4px">factor: 2.0</code> is the better setting.</p>

</div>

Using Ornith-1.5-35B-A3B via the Chat Completions API

Once a vLLM or SGLang server is running, talk to it with any OpenAI-compatible client.

Basic Usage

from openai import OpenAI

client = OpenAI(
    base_url="http://localhost:8000/v1",
    api_key="EMPTY",  # any non-empty string works for a local server
)

response = client.chat.completions.create(
    model="Ornith-1.5-35B-A3B",
    messages=[
        {"role": "user", "content": "Write a one-line Python lambda that squares a number."}
    ],
    temperature=0.6,
    top_p=0.95,
    max_tokens=1024,
)

message = response.choices[0].message
# reasoning_content holds the <think> trace; content holds the final answer.
print("reasoning:", getattr(message, "reasoning_content", None))
print("answer:", message.content)

You can also stream tokens, or hand the model tools — Ornith-1.5-35B-A3B emits well-formed function calls that the server parses into the standard tool_calls field:

tools = [
    {
        "type": "function",
        "function": {
            "name": "get_weather",
            "description": "Get the current weather for a city",
            "parameters": {
                "type": "object",
                "properties": {"city": {"type": "string"}},
                "required": ["city"],
            },
        },
    }
]

response = client.chat.completions.create(
    model="Ornith-1.5-35B-A3B",
    messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "What is the weather in Paris right now?"}],
    tools=tools,
    tool_choice="auto",
    temperature=0.6,
    max_tokens=2048,
)

tool_call = response.choices[0].message.tool_calls[0]
print(tool_call.function.name, tool_call.function.arguments)
# -> get_weather {"city": "Paris"}

You can point any OpenAI-compatible SDK (Python, Node.js, etc.) or curl at the same /v1/chat/completions endpoint.

Agentic Usage

Ornith-1.5-35B-A3B excels in tool-calling and agentic coding. It exposes an OpenAI-compatible endpoint with tool calling and works out of the box with standard agent frameworks.

Examples of using Ornith with agents:

Ollama

ollama run hf.co/ornith-ai/Ornith-1.5-35B-A3B-GGUF

Atomic.chat

# Atomic.chat loads a GGUF build of Ornith (ornith-ai/Ornith-1.5-35B-A3B-GGUF)
# through llama.cpp's OpenAI-compatible API on port 8000.
llama-server -hf ornith-ai/Ornith-1.5-35B-A3B-GGUF --port 8000 -c 262144

llama.cpp

# llama.cpp — serve an OpenAI-compatible API on port 8000.
llama-server -hf ornith-ai/Ornith-1.5-35B-A3B-GGUF --port 8000 -c 262144

#       "ornith-ai/Ornith-1.5-35B-A3B",
#       max_seq_length=262144,
#       load_in_4bit=True,
#   )

Coding CLIs

Ornith-1.5-35B-A3B is optimized for terminal-based coding agents. Point any OpenAI-compatible coding CLI at your Ornith-1.5-35B-A3B endpoint (set OPENAI_BASE_URL and OPENAI_API_KEY) to understand large codebases, automate tedious work, and ship faster.
