Recursive Superintelligence published Flint on October 22, 2026, a 39.8B-parameter MoE with about 2.5B active per token and a 262,144-token context, under Apache 2.0. The card reports 74.2% on SWE-bench Verified and 89.7% on SWE-bench Pro v2, with a June 2026 knowledge cutoff, and the model was reported to run locally on a laptop.

Why it matters

A near-frontier coding score at 2.5B active parameters and a permissive licence puts agent-grade coding within local, offline deployment.

Importance: 3/5
