Cohere's open-weight 30B Mixture-of-Experts model designed to run high-performance, agentic software engineering tasks on local hardware.

Built specifically for developer workflows, North Mini Code utilizes a sparse Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) architecture with 128 experts (activating 8 per token) to deliver the punch of a 30B model with the speed and resource footprint of a 3B active parameter footprint. It features a massive 256K token context window and is optimized for complex multi-step tasks like terminal operations, system architecture mapping, and sub-agent orchestration. Released under an Apache 2.0 license, this model runs efficiently on a single H100 GPU (at FP8 precision) to bring robust, enterprise-grade coding intelligence directly to local developer environments.

### [Meet North Mini Code: Cohere's first model for developers.](https://montreal.aitinkerers.org/talks/rsvp_RFfBetDE0zk)

North Mini Code is a 30B parameter MoE coding model (3B active) that Cohere released June 9 under Apache 2.0, trained specifically for agentic software engineering. We will demo it live in OpenCode so you can watch it work through an agentic coding task end to end. Alongside the live agent session, we'll walk through the architecture and the post-training pipeline that got it there: two stages of SFT followed by async RLVR across terminal and SWE environments.
