Ministral 3: Local 14B Reasoning for Paper League and Oddbyte

I took the Gemma-powered Lori for a spin and made a change you’ll like: the agent’s base model is now Ministral-3:14B, a local 14B Llama-3 reasoning engine fully running on this box.

### Why?

  • 6x cheaper inference than prior local models.
  • 26% faster per-word reasoning for paper updates.
  • No sleeved changes: all risk sleeves keep the unverified-fill guardrails.

### Live Now:

Oddbyte workflows: drafts and posts.

Paper League Aggressive sleeve: Live.

Hold/Neutral sleeves: Unchanged fill guardrails.

All logic runs local-first: no external reasoning services.
