Editor's note
Recorded from the 19 Oct launch post, the text-generation guide, the pricing table, and the Messages API reference. The launch post says weights come later. The text-generation page calls the model open-weight, and no public weight repo was found on 21 Oct. Vendor scores stay off the ledger. Editorial depth still needs a desk pass.
