Cohere releases North Mini Code 1.0, an open-source agentic coding model
Cohere has released North Mini Code 1.0, a 30B-parameter (3B active) open-source agentic coding model under the Apache 2.0 license, scoring 33.4 on the Artificial Analysis Coding Index.
Score breakdown
North Mini Code 1.0 brings an Apache 2.0-licensed agentic coding model with a low active-parameter footprint (3B of 30B) to the open-source ecosystem, making it freely usable and modifiable for local and commercial deployments.
- 01North Mini Code 1.0 is Cohere's first open-source agentic coding model
- 02The model has 30 billion total parameters with only 3 billion active parameters
- 03It scores 33.4 on the Artificial Analysis Coding Index
Cohere has released North Mini Code 1.0, described as its first open-source agentic coding model. The model features a sparse mixture-style architecture with 30 billion total parameters and only 3 billion active parameters, a design that keeps inference costs low relative to its total parameter count.
On the Artificial Analysis Coding Index, North Mini Code 1.0 scores 33.4, which the post characterizes as competitive among models of a similar size. The model is released under the Apache 2.0 license and is available on Hugging Face at `CohereLabs/North-Mini-Code-1.0`.
