Cohere's Unreleased Coding Model Gets Early Access for LocalLLaMA

Cohere's unreleased coding model (early access for localllama)

Cohere employee Nick Frosst opened early testing of BLS-Mini-Code-1.0 to LocalLLaMA, with weights on Hugging Face before public launch. The coding model has 30B total parameters and 3B active parameters, and Cohere says token output tests are in line with similar models in its size class.

Why it matters: HKR-H/K/R all pass: early-access Cohere coding weights with 30B/3B specifics matter to local-model users. Reddit sourcing and missing evals, license, and training details keep it in the low featured band.
