North Mini Code

### TL;DR

North Mini Code is Cohere's first open-source agentic coding model, designed to enhance software development efficiency. With 30 billion total parameters and 3 billion active parameters, it delivers strong performance without demanding extensive hardware resources. Available under the Apache 2.0 license, it empowers developers with sovereign AI capabilities, enabling deployment on-premises or locally. North Mini Code is optimized for code generation, agentic software engineering, and terminal tasks, achieving competitive scores across benchmarks against models of similar size. It is accessible through platforms like Hugging Face, Cohere's Model Vault, and OpenRouter, and is compatible with most coding agents, including OpenCode. Developers can engage with Cohere on platforms like X (formerly Twitter), Discord, and Reddit to share their projects and contribute to the evolution of sovereign models.
