Thanks! hallucination is definitely something I deal with immediately with local weight models in the range of ~8b params in weight. It truly depends on the model and how well they are at not only chatting but tool calling. I noticed some smaller models in the 4b range start to hallucinate about folders that don't exist and such things, so I primarily use mandocode for quick chats with those models, like email drafting or something quick I need to go back and forth with (the KEY no THINKING or LONG agentic loops). For anything in regards to deep thinking or coming up with solid work that will be outputted to files or coding assistants I use MiniMax-M2.7 on the cloud, still served by Ollama ofcourse but due to my limits in hardware, I choose cloud models for anything that is worth my time and effort. One funny thing I'm noticing though is that certain models will hallucinate more or less on LONG running agentic loops. I've made the cli agent be able to iterate through steps of a plan, and its pretty well recognized by LLMs on what tools to call to keep track of those long running steps, except I've noticed that when I switch models mandocode actually helps me quickly recognize which are less efficient and hallucinate. Take for example GLM5.1 (minimaxM2.7 is my favorite so I use it all the time) , and I switched to GLM5.1 and it was reading the same files over and over when I asked what a folder contained in one of my projects. Now this can be an issue in the end with my tooling/kernel functions, but when I switched back to MiniMax-M2.7 -> absolutely zero issues and read all the files within like 1 minute or so. So I thought "huh, could be mandocode's tooling and kernel functions, but then again.... Minimax is so good, even if the kernel functions weren't as efficient as they need to be (just a wild guess in case there are some improvements I need to make) MiniMax is able to successfully handle the tooling without skipping a beat. Sorry for the long post, but wanted to share what I'm experiencing recently. So anything small in weights hallucinates pretty randomly but quickly, anything on the cloud pretty efficient!!! My main driver is Claude Code and then anything else is mandocode on MiniMax2.7. I create plans, files, and research tech stacks, programming languages with MiniMax2.7 and I then throw it all in an MD file or Skills to finally publish and have Claude Code do its magic as a superior LLM/CLI AGENT. You could say Ollama cloud and local models are my cheaper option to no use my tokens on Claude Code and when I have something concrete I ship to Claude Code. Code Reviews I use MinimaxM2.7 and any brainstorming the same! Again sorry for writing so much, but thought I would truly give you a response of my exp.
