    Security, safety & abuse risks

    • Agent deployments with excessive tool permissions can expose files, credentials and external services; use least-privilege access.
    • Untrusted documents and tool outputs can introduce prompt-injection instructions; isolate them from privileged actions.
    • Generated code and shell commands can be unsafe or incorrect; require sandboxing and review before execution.
    • Sensitive information included in prompts or tool results can propagate into logs or downstream services; minimize and redact sensitive data.

    Known flaws & limitations

    • Text-only inputs do not provide native image, audio or video understanding.
    • The trillion-parameter mixture-of-experts architecture requires substantial memory and serving infrastructure despite sparse activation and quantization.
    • Extended reasoning and repeated tool calls can increase latency and total token expenditure.
    • Tool-assisted benchmark results depend on external tools, evaluation scaffolding and execution budgets.
    • Strong benchmark performance does not guarantee factual accuracy or successful completion of unfamiliar tasks.

    Security advisories & risk updates

    No risk advisories logged since this profile started being tracked. New ones appear here automatically.

    What this means if you are building on it

    • Native image, audio or video understanding.
    • Latency-critical applications that require consistently short responses.
    • Small-device or low-memory self-hosting.
    • Unsupervised consequential decisions or unrestricted access to production systems.

    Everything here comes from published documentation, advisories and reporting, with links to the original sources. It is not a complete vulnerability database — always check the provider's own security notices before shipping.
