Stable DiffCoder 8B Instruct

Stable-DiffCoder-8B-Instruct is a code-focused mask diffusion language model by ByteDance-Seed, built on the Seed-Coder architecture and fine-tuned from Stable-DiffCoder-8B-Base. It uses block diffusion continual pretraining followed by supervised fine-tuning and is instruction-tuned for alignment with user intent. The model card lists an 8K context length, text-generation pipeline, transformers library support, MIT license, and safetensors format.

What do these scores mean?

Two ways to compare models. Neither score measures answer quality, benchmark performance, or whether a model fits your machine.

Freshness · release age

A new release starts at 100. The score halves every 180 days: 100 × 2^(−age in days / 180). When the release date is unavailable, a repository date is a fallback—not proof of when the model was released. Missing dates stay unscored.

Popularity · adoption

Downloads over the past 30 days carry 80% of the score; lifetime likes carry 20%. Both use a logarithmic scale, capped at 10 million downloads and 100,000 likes. If likes are unavailable, downloads carry all the weight. Missing download statistics stay unscored.

round(80 × min(1, log10(1 + downloads) / 7) + 20 × min(1, log10(1 + likes) / 5))

Mistral Small 4 · 119B

Mistral Small 4 119B A6B is an Apache-2.0 licensed hybrid model from mistralai that combines general instruction, reasoning, and Devstral-style capabilities in one model. It uses a Mixture-of-Experts architecture with 119B total parameters, 6.5B activated per token, 128 experts with 4 active, and a 256k context length. It supports multimodal input (text and image) with text output, multilingual support across dozens of languages, system prompts, function calling, JSON output, and configurable reasoning effort. The model card also mentions optional efficiency resources: an eagle head for speculative decoding and an NVFP4 checkpoint. It is tagged for vLLM and offered in safetensors format.
