Measured tools (6)

• search_models

  Search the model register: open-weight AI model releases with exact parameter counts, architectural context length, licence and release date. Use this to answer questions about which models exist, how big they are, what they are licensed under, or what shipped recently.

  Parameters:

  • task — string — e.g. text-generation, image-text-to-text, mask-generation
  • limit — number — Default 25, max 100
  • query — string — Substring match on the model id
  • license — string — e.g. apache-2.0, mit
  • reasoning — boolean — Only models whose chat template shows reasoning/thinking support
  • image_input — boolean — Only models that accept image input
  • min_context — number — Minimum architectural context length in tokens
  • organisation — string — e.g. qwen, deepseek-ai, meta-llama, google
  • tool_calling — boolean — Only models whose chat template shows tool-calling support
  • max_parameters — number
  • min_parameters — number — Minimum parameter count, e.g. 7000000000
  • released_after — string — ISO date, e.g. 2026-01-01
  • include_derivatives — boolean — Include quantisations and conversions of other releases (GGUF, MLX, AWQ and similar). Default false.

  Hints: read-only not declared · destructive not declared · idempotent not declared · open-world not declared

• get_model

  Get the full record for one model, including every field and the endpoint each field was sourced from. Use when you need provenance or complete detail.

  Parameters:

  • id (required) — string — Repo id, e.g. "Qwen/Qwen3.8-27B"

  Hints: read-only not declared · destructive not declared · idempotent not declared · open-world not declared

• recent_releases

  Models first recorded in the register within the last N days. Use to answer 'what shipped recently' or 'what is new in open-weight models'.

  Parameters:

  • days — number — Look-back window, default 30
  • limit — number — Default 25

  Hints: read-only not declared · destructive not declared · idempotent not declared · open-world not declared

• register_stats

  Summary of what the register covers: how many models, field coverage, organisations tracked, and the inclusion rule. Use to judge whether the register can answer a question before querying it.

  Hints: read-only not declared · destructive not declared · idempotent not declared · open-world not declared

• search_news

  Search stories published by The Neural Net. Each story is written from a primary source and links to it. Use for narrative context on a release rather than raw model facts.

  Parameters:

  • limit — number — Default 10
  • query — string — Substring match on headline and summary
  • topic — string — e.g. models, products, infrastructure, research, policy, safety

  Hints: read-only not declared · destructive not declared · idempotent not declared · open-world not declared

• get_wire

  Everything The Neural Net harvested in the last day that it did not write up, grouped by source and linked to the original. Use for a broad view of current activity.

  Hints: read-only not declared · destructive not declared · idempotent not declared · open-world not declared
