Overview
Identity
- Canonical model
- Yesidentity confidence: highOne row per real model release. Artifacts (checkpoints, quantisations, conversions) and folded evaluation variants point here.
- Official checkpoints
- None recorded — closed weightsofficial_checkpoints = hf_repo identifiers carried by the model itself; artifacts are separate entities pointing here through canonical_id.

- None recordedSeparate entities (checkpoint · quantization · conversion · packaging) pointing to this model through canonical_id.
- Provider deployments

- API aliases
- gemini-3.8-liveIdentifiers under which providers and evaluators refer to this model.
- Folded evaluation variants
- 0Effort / thinking variants (…-high, …-non-reasoning) are result configurations of this model, not separate models. Their old URLs redirect here.
