Alice M5 Cortex 8B 6.3GB

Primary M5 SIFTA cortex tag:

ollama create alice-m5-cortex-8b-6.3gb:latest -f Modelfile

This is the promoted M5 cortex used by Alice on the Foundry node. It is a SIFTA-owned Ollama tag and does not use the retired LoRA candidate.

Live Probe

Verified on 2026-05-09:

architecture: Gemma4
parameters: 8B
context length: 131072
runtime context: 8192
capabilities reported by ollama show: completion, vision, audio, tools, thinking
/api/chat with think:false answered both text and image prompts

SIFTA Runtime Note

Alice's Talk path uses /api/chat with think:false. Raw calls that omit this can spend the whole output budget in the thinking field and return blank assistant content.

SIFTA Field Breakthrough

The current SIFTA public repo includes a stigmergic field breakthrough brief: https://github.com/antonpictures/ANTON-SIFTA/blob/main/Documents/CARLTON_STIGMERGIC_FIELD_BREAKTHROUGH_2026-05-11.md

The cortex is only one organ in that system. The field mechanism itself runs in the Python body: Bell analogue simulator, kernel scheduler, and hippocampus. Credit boundary: Bell/CHSH/Hall/pilot-wave/stigmergy literature grounds the analogy; SIFTA claims a receipt-backed classical contextual analogue, not a proof of the physical cause of quantum nonlocality.

Local State Boundary

This model package is public species DNA. It must not include a node's raw .sifta_state/ memory, contacts, owner traces, camera frames, or private receipts.
