Reasoning distillation for agent workflows
#5

The chain-of-thought distillation from Claude Opus to Qwen3.5-9B is an interesting approach — we've seen similar patterns work well for making reasoning capabilities more deployable. The 168K downloads suggest strong community interest. Quick question: has anyone benchmarked the reasoning quality against the original Opus model on domain-specific tasks? The GGUF format makes this practical for local inference, but I'm curious about the quality gap on multi-step agent planning versus pure reasoning tasks.
