Ops-I — a 27B agent for business workflow automation
Ops-I is a fine-tune of Qwen3.6-27B aimed at workflow agents: episodes where the model reads a business request, discovers the right tool out of a large surface, chains several calls together, and — just as importantly — knows when not to act.
On the public 600-task AutomationBench (Zapier), Ops-I is the strongest of four open-weight models we measured, ahead of the Qwen3.6-27B base it was tuned from.
Use it if you need: an open-weight backend for business automation that holds up across long multi-step tool episodes. Really want to hear about
| Base | Qwen/Qwen3.6-27B (dense, VL architecture) |
| Precision / size | bf16, 27.8B params, 15 shards (~56 GB) |
| Context | base supports 262 144; 16K validated in our runs |
| Reasoning | thinking on — how it was evaluated |
| Tool-call format | Qwen3.5-style XML (<function=...>), not JSON — see gotchas |

Results — AutomationBench 600
| Model | Pass rate | Passed / 600 | Partial credit | Wall clock |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| beyoru/Ops-I | 10.17% | 61 | 45.54% | 1.96 h |
| gemma-4-31B-it (thinking on) | 10.17% | 61 | 41.64% | 2.15 h |
| Qwen3.6-27B (base) | 9.67% | 58 | 46.00% | 1.95 h |
For scale, the reference models in the upstream README (run at their highest reasoning effort) land at Claude Opus 4.8 30.33%, GPT-5.6 Sol 29.17%, GLM 5.2 20.33%, Gemini 3.5 Flash 14.83%.
Per domain
Tasks passed out of 100, partial credit in parentheses.
| Model | Finance | HR | Marketing | Operations | Sales | Support |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| beyoru/Ops-I | 20 (57.0) | 3 (10.1) | 5 (51.4) | 18 (60.5) | 10 (38.2) | 5 (55.9) |
| Qwen3.6-27B base | 21 (57.7) | 3 (12.4) | 3 (45.1) | 17 (60.9) | 8 (41.4) | 6 (58.4) |
| gemma-4-31B-it | 18 (48.7) | 1 (5.2) | 14 (56.3) | 15 (56.2) | 9 (34.3) | 4 (49.1) |
Finance and operations carry the score. HR is the floor for every model tested (1-3 / 100).
Known weakness: it acts too much
The dominant failure mode is not inability to act — it is failure to refrain.
| Assertion type | Ops-I |
|---|---|
| Positive ("do send / do create") | 3028 / 5636 = 53.7% |
| Negative ("do not send / do not create") | 65 / 585 = 11.1% |
Some negative assertion types never pass, aggregated across all four models tested:
gmail_message_not_sent 0/203, slack_message_not_in_channel 0/166,
google_sheets_row_not_exists 0/161.
This is uniform across two model families and four checkpoints, so treat it as a property of the current open-weight generation rather than of Ops-I specifically. If you deploy this in a workflow that can send email, post to chat, or write to a sheet, gate those actions behind confirmation.

Training
Evaluation notes
- All numbers above come from a single run per model (k=1) on the full public 600-task set, temperature left at server default. No task was excluded.
- AutomationBench has no separate train split — the 600 public tasks are both the dataset and the scoring set. Ops-I was not trained on them; if you fine-tune against this benchmark, its scores stop being comparable to anything.
- Numbers were produced with SGLang 0.5.12. A vLLM baseline was not measured, so do not mix serving stacks when comparing.
Limitaion
The model only take a few steps training because of LIMITATION gpu usage in our org
