| An internal model selector reveals several Avocado configurations currently under evaluation. These include: - Avocado 9B, a smaller 9 billion parameter version. - Avocado Mango, which carries "agent" and "sub-agent" labels and appears to be a multimodal variant capable of image generation. - Avocado TOMM - "Tool of many models" based on Avocado. - Avocado Thinking 5.6 - latest version of Avocado Thinking model. - Paricado - text-only conversational model.

Key Points
- The article (via an internal-model selector leak) suggests Meta is evaluating multiple “Avocado” model configurations that could be released as open source.
- Reported candidates include Avocado 9B (a smaller 9B-parameter variant) and Avocado Mango, described as agent/sub-agent oriented and potentially multimodal with image generation capabilities.
- It also mentions Avocado TOMM (“Tool of many models”) built on Avocado, along with an updated Avocado Thinking 5.6 and a text-only conversational model called Paricado.
- The post points to testing results and an external source (TestingCatalog) as the basis for the claimed configurations under evaluation.
