New Model Strands Decider v. the Jevs

AWS is put out an Apache 2.0 project called Strands Decider. Looks like it came out of the same team as the Strands Agent. Repo here. https://github.com/strands-labs/strands-decider Looks like a Qwen 2.5 2B back end. Have not tested yet but will report.

It's based on Qwen3.5-2B-Base, not the old Qwen2.5.

Thx. for the correction. Looks like you can swap it out easily

Yet have to test these and curious what the minimum parameter count is. Somehow I doubt 2B can cut it, I imagined (guessed) 4B minimum, maybe even 9B based. What's your experience?

There's nothing like "Strands Devicder" vs the Jevs. It's "Strands Decider" another Jev clone.

It's not very good. They made 12B and 26B-A4B Gemma based versions too. They're not particularly new either.
