WHY WE PICKED IT
The strongest open-weight coding model published to date: 62.1 on SWE-bench Pro against GPT-5.5's 58.6, and 81.0 on Terminal-Bench 2.1, at roughly a sixth of GPT-5.5's API price. The MIT licence carries no regional restrictions, so the weights can genuinely be self-hosted commercially, which is the reason to choose it over a closed model of similar strength.
