llm-command-r. Cohere released Command R Plus today—an open weights (non commercial/research only) 104 billion parameter LLM, a big step up from their previous 35 billion Command R model.
Both models are fine-tuned for both tool use and RAG. The commercial API has features to expose this functionality, including a web-search connector which lets the model run web searches as part of answering the prompt and return documents and citations as part of the JSON response.
I released a new plugin for my LLM command line tool this morning adding support for the Command R models.
In addition to the two models it also adds a custom command for running prompts with web search enabled and listing the referenced documents.
