Poolside has released Laguna S 2.1, a new model aimed at agentic coding.
- The model has 118B total parameters with 8B active per token.
- The team says it outperforms models several times its size on long-horizon coding tasks and is notably persistent.
- It is also small enough to run on a single NVIDIA DGX Spark, which the post highlights as an important deployment point.
