NGARi Tool — Tool-Calling 1.5B
A 1.5B tool-calling model: Qwen2.5-1.5B-Instruct + tool-format LoRA, scoring 100% tool detection / 100% tool-name accuracy / 100% params validity on the NGARi tool-format eval.
This is the production tool-mode model in the NGARi Sovereign Business Operating System — the fast, lightweight router that lets on-device agents trigger tools, format function calls, and structure JSON without ever touching the cloud.
Why it exists — the NGARi model pipeline
Small models naturally struggle with the rigid syntax of function calling. NGARi solves this with a teacher→student pipeline:
Teacher (27B-class, e.g. qwen3.8-27B)
│ generates multi-turn tool-calling scenarios:
│ mock JSON schemas, user queries, correct API calls
▼
ngari-tool (1.5B)
│ fine-tuned on perfectly structured examples
▼
Result: 100% tool-format accuracy at edge speed (runs on 8GB RAM)
The companion QA/safety model is NGARiAI/ngari-ft-distilled.
Provenance (verified Aug 3, 2026)
| Attribute | Value |
|---|---|
| Base model | Qwen/Qwen2.5-1.5B-Instruct (Apache 2.0) — pinned in adapter_config.json |
| LoRA | rank 32, alpha 64, dropout 0.05, all linear projections |
| Synthetic data teacher | qwen3:8b (v1; 27B-class teacher planned for v2) |
| License | Apache 2.0 (NGARi-authored artifacts) |
| Hardware validated | aarch64 / NVIDIA Jetson AGX Orin, 8GB RAM, air-gap verified |
Google Gemma models were served only on NGARi hardware and were never used in NGARi training. All training used the Apache-2.0 Qwen2.5 lineage.
