Model catalog

The table is generated from the registry by just docs-models; the same data drives the README table and the candding list-models --json command.

Reading the columns

• Pooling is how per-token states become one vector: cls, mean or last_token; see pooling and templates.
• Max length is the default truncation, taken from the repository's sentence-transformers configuration; the builder can raise it up to the model's position limit.
• CPU, Metal, CUDA show verified when the golden suite (CPU) or the parity test (accelerators) passed, pending when a run is planned, and untested when nobody has run it yet; see testing.
• License is the model's license on Hugging Face; candding itself is Apache-2.0 OR MIT.

How a model gets verified

A model is added to the registry with its pooling, templates and default length, a reference is generated with sentence-transformers in F32 on CPU, and the ten golden tests in candding/tests/golden_bert.rs must pass at cosine ≥ 0.9999 and max-abs ≤ 1e-4 before the entry lands. Metal and CUDA become verified when the parity test agrees with CPU at cosine ≥ 0.999 on every fixture input.
