This matrix records which in-house models were validated against which forager runtime. "Validated" means the test log shows a green run; it does not mean anyone used the combination in production.

All model names here are internal HSC codenames. None of them were released outside the cooperative.

== Matrix ==

| Model | Params | forager 2.0 | forager 2.3 | forager 3.0 | forager 3.2 | forager 3.4 | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Basalt-1 | 340M | ✔ | ✔ | ✔ (legacy loader) | ✘ | ✘ | loader removed in 3.2 |
| Basalt-2 | 1.1B | — | ✔ | ✔ | ✔ | ✔ | production model 2014–2016 |
| Larkspur-S | 60M | ✔ | ✔ | ✔ | ✔ | ✔ (deprecated) | classifier only |
| Cinder-XL | 6B | — | — | ✘ | ⚠ | ⚠ | never left the `queen02` colony; OOM on 3 of 4 forager hosts |

⚠ = runs with `inference.split=2` only. See Distributed Inference Notes.

== Runtime requirements ==

| Runtime | Loader | Max model bytes | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| forager 2.x | `mload1` | 2 GiB | single host only |
| forager 3.0 | `mload2` | 8 GiB | split loading, see Distributed Inference Notes#Split loading |
| forager 3.2+ | `mload2` | 16 GiB | `mload1` removed, breaking Basalt-1 |

== Model notes ==

; Basalt-1 : 2012. Trained on the internal document corpus. Retired when the loader was removed; nobody noticed for four months (Known Agent Bugs#Basalt-1 silent fallback).
; Basalt-2 : 2014. The workhorse. `model.summarize` in the Tool Registry is Basalt-2.
; Larkspur-S : 2013. Tiny classifier used for routing. Deprecated 2015-08 in favour of a rule list that was faster and, embarrassingly, more accurate.
; Cinder-XL : 2015. Experimental. The Distributed Inference Notes page is mostly about making this one fit.

== Verification procedure ==

1. Check out the runtime tag on `build.hm.internal`.
2. Run `antc test --model <name> --runtime <tag>` (see Legacy Toolchain).
3. Record the result in the test log with the commit hash.
4. Update this table. Do not update the table without a log entry — this has happened, and the ✔ for Basalt-1 on 3.0 was one of those.
