## How the score was worked out Each result implies a score on its own, after adjusting for how hard that test is and who ran it. The model's score is their weighted average, with a small pull toward the middle for thinly tested models. Each test's weight is its *counts* column above; here it is added up by who ran the tests.

Observed 2026-09-26. ### llama.cpp (recommended) 1. Install llama.cpp. Homebrew and winget installs name the commands llama-cli and llama-server instead. [Other ways to install](https://github.com/ggml-org/llama.cpp/blob/master/docs/install.md) ```sh # macOS / Linux curl -LsSf https://llama.app/install.sh | sh # Windows irm https://llama.app/install.ps1 | iex ``` 2. Run Step 3.7 Flash (198B-A11B) (Q4_K_S, needs ~115.47 GB, from [huggingface.co/stepfun-ai](https://huggingface.co/stepfun-ai/Step-3.7-Flash-GGUF/tree/0b69336d2fd2adfdef9c66e425f7778196c31482)) ```sh llama cli -hf stepfun-ai/Step-3.7-Flash-GGUF:Q4_K_S ``` 3. Or start a local server and open the address it prints (http://localhost:9931) ```sh llama serve -hf stepfun-ai/Step-3.7-Flash-GGUF:Q4_K_S ``` Other versions: Q3_K_M (~97.77 GB) `llama cli -hf stepfun-ai/Step-3.7-Flash-GGUF:Q3_K_M` ### LM Studio 1. Install LM Studio. Open the app once before using the lms command. [Download it (macOS / Windows / Linux)](https://lmstudio.ai/download) 2. Run Step 3.7 Flash (198B-A11B) (Q4_K_S, needs ~115.47 GB, from [huggingface.co/stepfun-ai](https://huggingface.co/stepfun-ai/Step-3.7-Flash-GGUF/tree/0b69336d2fd2adfdef9c66e425f7778196c31482)) ```sh lms get https://huggingface.co/stepfun-ai/Step-3.7-Flash-GGUF@Q4_K_S -y ``` 3. Then run lms ls to see its name, and lms chat followed by that name Other versions: Q3_K_M (~97.77 GB) `lms get https://huggingface.co/stepfun-ai/Step-3.7-Flash-GGUF@Q3_K_M -y` Model repository and documentation: [huggingface.co/stepfun-ai](https://huggingface.co/stepfun-ai/Step-3.7-Flash) [interactive version](https://whatmodel.sh/model/step-3-7-flash) · [JSON](https://whatmodel.sh/api?format=json&all=1)
