Qwen3 235B
Qwen3 235B — the default model on Gonka
Alibaba's 235-billion-parameter mixture-of-experts flagship. 22B active params per token — inference feels like a 70B dense model but generation quality is closer to 400B-class. Released mid-2025.
What it's good at
- Instruction-following, especially multi-step tasks
- Code generation and refactoring (Python, TS, Rust, Go)
- Summarization and extraction over long inputs (128k context)
- Tool-use and structured output (native JSON mode)
What to use something else for
- Creative writing with strong style control — bigger frontier models are still ahead
- Math Olympiad-level reasoning — wait for Kimi K2.5

Autonomous deep-research agent. Give it a topic and a depth; it generates sub-questions, answers them, and synthesizes a polished markdown report.
Multi-agent swarm — a supervisor decomposes your task into sub-tasks, runs them in parallel with shell / file / web tools, then reconciles into a single answer. Model-agnostic; swap in Kimi K2.6 the day Gonka exposes it.
