Model Detail

Grug-12B is a code generation model with 12B parameters released by kai-os. The model is registered under the text-generation pipeline tag on Hugging Face, distributed under a other license.

Grug-12B ships with 12B parameters. Total weight footprint is approximately 12.0 GB, which is the relevant figure when planning local-inference VRAM. Distribution is governed by the other license — review the exact terms before commercial deployment.

Grug-12B is best fit for code completion, repository-scale Q&A, and pair-programming integrations. It is a less obvious choice for one-shot generation of security-critical code without review. Treat this as a starting matrix rather than a benchmark verdict — the right deployment usually depends on the specific evaluation suite that mirrors your workload.
